THAT DEBT.

THAT DEBT.
1t is a small one, to be sure, and

thought. Why not then pay 1t? Why

ton Of dun? Why not take that
little thorn out of your finger at
once? 1t will tester If allowed to
troubleremain, and cause ten times
the trouble. Why not relieve the
conscience of that little load? You
contracted the debt knowingly and
willingly. Did you mean to pay it?
Certainly you did Then why not do
it at once? Every days delay in
craases. morally, the amount Of
your obligation. Remember, too,
that your little debt, and thous-
and other mems little debts, make
a little fortune for your creditor.

Young women have the same long
ing to get away from their native
towns and live among new scenes
and changed surroundings as boys
are possessed of. They feel the
weight of local environments, even
more than the opposite sex, and one
frequently hears the remark, Il
wish l were a boy, then | could have
some freedom"
This marks a critical period Of a
young lady's life She needs, mora
than ever before, wise and loving
counsel, and sympathetic companion
ship of true friend; and there is no
friend like a mother in unselfish,un
firing devotion. Girls, tell your moth
ers of your hopes and ambitions. and
you are quite certain TO receive advice
which you can accept with profit, and
with will do you good.

THE RISE OF A BOY.
This boy goes to his business, and
at his business begins by simply do
ing the things he told to do and
doing them In a common and ordi-
nary way. If he stops here he re-
mains all his life long drudge. But
II he begins to see that business has
a significance, that his life is not
merely sweeping the store, not mere
ly writing letters, not merely selling
goods; II he begins to see the high
err life involved in business; II he
begins to see that business is a
greater instrument Of beneficenos
than that we call beneficence, that
trade is clothing thousands Of men
where charity feeds ten; If he begins
to See how the whole history OF the
world is linked together, and Is
Gods way of building up humanity
and serving humanity-as he gets mis-
larger view, and enters into 1t,
life Is enriched and becomes itself

Iarged and conscience is straighten-
ed, the school wherein he Is educat-
ed out of the lower into the high

CLERK OF COURT LOSES

BY recent ruling of Judges Taylor
and Baxter the clerk is ordered to
make all the entries Of the cases with
out compensation, says the st. Cloud
Journal-Press. The order is based on
the fact that there is no provision
which gives any fee for the work.
For many years the clerks were
allowed 25 cents an entry by special
order OF the court.
The various officials through this dis
trlct Of course believe that they are
unjustly treated. They state that it
takes considerable time to make out
the calendar and they receive no pay.
It is asserted that the officials have no
kick coming it their positions were on
q salary basis. AS they depend
entirely on fees they want to be paid
for all the work they do /. is pro
bable that the matter will he taken up
before the legislature this fall to make
some provision for the fee.

WAFER ffllf0UR FIT
Tuesday Night--Caused by
: Jam Of Anchor and
Drift Ice s

The Mississippi river at this point
went down fully four feet Tueeday
night, and caused not q little surprise
to the residents of this city when. on
Wednesday morning, they saw what
had happened. The ice was broken in
many places and large pieces Of 1t
inclined. and the logs which were
frozen into it, stuck up, presenting a
very curious sight. The knowing ones
were at loss to account for this sud.
den abatement, but presumed that
number of the streams that empty into
the Mississippi north of here had
frozen to such an extent as to prevent
any of its waters getting into the
Mississippi. On investigation it was
found that a jam OF anchor and drift
ice had formed In the river opposite
the Lyman Aver farm In Belle
Prairie, and that this jam was hold
ing back the waters. of the upper
Mississippi, which, Ut course, caused
the river below that point to lower
the four feet mentioned. 1t backed up
head OF water from five to six feet
in height. This is the first time IN
nine years that such an occurrence has
happened, and 1t naturally effects the
local water power company III tho
furnishing OF light and power.
In order to secure sufficient head
of water through the canal during the
winter, the Hennepin Paper company
has had some flash boards put on the
East Wing of the dam.
1t is very probable that the mills,
getting their power from the river
between here and Minneapolis will
be affected, to such an extent as to
have to close down for a couple OF
days. I. c.. Gordon of the local
water power company has apprlstd the
Watab and Minneapolis water power
companies of the sudden droppaee OF
water so that they would be able to
| prepare for 1t. ~ ~ !.
1t is expected that the river will
reach its normal stage at this time Of
the year within day or two. :
