SUSAN.

L. L. S.. wants Leumas TO tell
why are so many American
women dissatisfied with their lots
in life" l do not know whether
the question was asked just for
mere idle curiosity or as bur
lesque or to obtain information.
but supposing it to be the latter,
would reply bv saying that pre-
sumo the women of our fair land
are about as nearly satisfied as
those of any other land CT cline,
perfect COntentment is a plant
that does not flourish in natures
soil. 1t is an Unborn nature of
our race. (and has been even be-
fore Eve bit the apple that we
are ever reaching after something
beyond: Copper was right when
he said, None are happy in part
True bliss is bliss divine"
If our progenitors had been sat
isfied with their surroundings John
Smith and his company would
never have come to Virginia, nor
would the fair daughters Of our
land ever have had an existence.
If the student was satisfied with
his present attachments he would
never acquire an education.
No. my friend, do not, expect
TO be perfectly satisfied, it is our
bounden duty to cherish that Coo
given desire to make higher at
tainments in life. This is pro,
gressive age, and progress means
sacrifice, so it becometh us tc
make any reasonable sacrifice ir
order TO better ourselves anC
those around us, ever aspiring tC
higher and nobler purposes unit
the Master shall say. Come VI
higher"
| If the question means. why ar,
there so many unhappy marriages
! l would say it is on account o
marrying without love, or lovini
without reason.
Yours truly,
LEUMAS.

EVAN MAN DISAPPEARS.
Young Farmer Wrote that He Intended
to Kill Himself and Skipped.

ii. +. Peterson, young Dane who
has been living alone in farm house
within forty rods of the depot at
cyan. left Evan last Wednesday for
Mankato, and the Free Press reports
that the next day the butcher at
Evan received a letter from him say
ing that he had had a lot of trouble,
that everybody was down on him
and he was going to kill himself.
Investigation at Evan showed that
Peterson had drawn his balance at
the bank, $3.50, and that his cow and
three horses had apparently not been
fed for a week. the horses having
been found dead and the cow dying.
At Mankato Peterson went to the
theater with former Evan girl who
is now domestic in a Mankato fam
lily. He told the girl that he had
had much trouble and could not
have good time like others did.
The Mankato police traced the man
to the depot and think he took the
night train going to St. Paul.
Lars George, the we'll known farm
err who lives near Morgan, is Peter
sons uncle, and says that he knows
no trouble that his nephew has had,
except the loss of his horses, and
that once before he starved his stock
almost to death. which was the only
peculiar thing he knew about him.
The young man is reported worth
over $4,000, having two farms. His
