NEW OFFICIALS.
But Few Changes in Various Offices
at Court Houae


Last Monday was Inauguration day
for the various county officials. On
that day each commenced another
term of two years. With but few ex-
ceptions the list was unchanged b.
the recent elections. The most i'm
portant change. perhaps, was in the
sheriff's office, whore Otto Langum
succeeds J. w. Dreger. Mr.. Langum is
we'll qualified, having been chief dep
uty for a number of years. He in turn
will be succeeded by John r. Wall.
who is advanced to the position 81
long held by Mr., Langum. Mr.. Wall
has many friends among Irish Stan
GARD readers who are pleased to see
him thus honored.
In the Office of county superinten-
dent of schools Two new faces are
noticed. Prof. Fl. I. I1arter succeeds
D. &. Mackenzie, who has held the po-
sition many years, and Herbert NJ.
Wilcox is assistant superintendent.
Mr. Harter is a, man of fine capabil-
tiles. it is said, and in choosing Mr..
Wilcox as his assistant he has made
no mistake. The latter served as coun-
ty superintendent for two terms and
gave excellent satisfaction.
On the municipal bench Judge Will
liam c. Loary has assumed his new
duties and is already trying cases.

was brief, but interesting session
the first of the New Year. and natur.

ton Of the new rates adopted by II q
convention g. Duluth and which went
into effect on the first of this monte.
Che step rate as it is generally
known, is now in effect and the be-
lief is gaining ground that it will grow
in popularity as a comparison Of the
new figures With that Of other organi.
cations becomes better known. What
las been done by so many o. the
great organizations Of the country l.,
the last feW years has been deemed
necessary by the A. o. H. The new
rates, as adopted by the Duluth con-
vention. are lower than many othe:
fraternal organizations and are much.
cheaper, so It is claimed by those wei,
posted in these matters, than such So
cieties as the Independent Order OF

Many who keep hens are asking
themselves just about now why their
pullets don't lay, when the fact is that
a lot Of their young stock was hatch
ed too late, or was not given proper
food and care during growth. The
size and general appearance of pull
let does not always denote the time
when she should commence producing
eggs. l have seen flocks Of pretty
big nice pullets and they would lay
hardly an egg all winter. The first
essential for winter eggs is the right
kind of stock to produce them. Food
will not supply that want; it may
help some and in some instances it's
pretty difficult to help the matter very
much by giving extra care. The strain
has got to be of the right sort If they
prove themselves reliable and profit
able layers. After being in the poul-
try business so long and seeing so
many people fuss and experiment and
work in the effort to get eggs from
stock that had no eggs to lay, no in
clination to make eggs or ability to
commence to get ready to lay, it Is
impressed all the stronger upon my
mind that there is a whole lot to this
hen business besides feed and care

PEERING INTO THE FUTURE.

By Rev. P. A. Ha1pin.
Their angels always see the face of
my Father who is in heaven.-Matt.
1910.
Always, and not less now, men, con-
sciously or unconsciously, have turned
inquiring glances toward that other
world where the Deity reigns and His
cohorts deploy their activity in His
service.
This curiosity has never been
shaken off, 1t is an inheritance of
our nature, and, be he religious or ir-
religious, everyone is helpless against
its resistless fascination. 1t is all no
weak proof that this haunting desire
springs from the fact that we have
not been made for this world, but are
destined, thanks to the gracious God
therefor, for a goal higher and more
lasting.
Men run in vain solicitings to sci
ence and to uncredentialed oracles for
some utterance to satisfy this restless,
chatting curiosity, when, with Bible in
hand, every reVeF0HIldl CnrlSllan may
in prayerful meditation learn all that
it behooves to know, and more than
frustrated attempts or blatant char
latanry can ever reveal.
Innumerable passages in Holy Writ
give the story Of that supramundane
sphere. Therein is recounted the re-
bellion against the omnipotent, the de-
feat the punishment of the guilty and
the reward unspeakable to those who
were treason proof. We read of the
unseen stairs the angels are climbing
and descending with messages from
God to man and with praise and
Thanksgiving and prayers from man to
God.
The Son of Man in His eternity saw
Satan and his minions fall like light
ming from heaven. There is flashed
upon us that region with its two king
doms, the kingdom of light and the

CONCRETE BEEHIVE this are not pres
ent, the things may be purchased with
out any great outlay Of money.
There have been many improve
ments lately in the manner Of con-
structing the beehives, and probably
the most interesting is one which is
made of concrete. A patent has been
recently issued covering the manufac-
ture of concrete beehives, but any
one with little ingenuity may easily
make them, and set Of molds once
having been made satisfactorily, may
be used Indefinitely and any number
Of hives made from 1t. Anyone at
tempting to make a hive of this ma
terial should acquaint themselves with
the character of the cement and should
also be familiar with the habits Of
bees.

Kingdom Of darkness. In one the pow

Kingdom Of darkness. In one the pow
ers are set against God and all that is
godly. The powers on the other are
champions of the right of the Divin-
ity, and protectors of all who rely
upon their succor Gods commands
are being executed with more than
aerial swiftness, and no mortal is I'M
safe, save the one who refuses the
blessed ministrations of those who
were faithful from the dawn of time.
If the child has his angel, how
much more certainly has the man, for
the man needs him more.
There are angels for all, for the
child, the man, the family, the State,
the church, and they always see my
Fathers face"
Much and everything needful does
Scripture tell us. It's pages are vocal
with the melody of the rustling of an
gel wings. In fact, the uplifting and
helpful story is narrated in its en-
tirety, as those spirits energize in
those last stretches of duration from
the angel of the flaming sword to the
bright one who came to John and un-
yelled all the glories of the New Jeru-
salem. There is no story, save that OF
Him crucified, more satisfying, more
consoling, more invigorating. Why
search elsewhere than in Scripture?
AS early as Deuteronomy the world
was warned against trif1ing with those
realms so near and yet so far away.
Neither let there be found one among
you that seeketh the truth from the
dead For the Lord abhorreth all such
things. "-Deut. 1912.
The attitude the Scriptures urge Is
so simple so sublime. That attitude
is one of prayer and worship. Such
an attitude takes so much away from
the loneliness Of our pilgrimage Wait
and be contrite and humble, and our
angels, when the summons sounds, will
lift us gently from our couch Of death
and place us in the arms Of the loving
Father, whose face they always see.

Sun.h.ne in the. Dairy.

Sunshine is the dairyman's best
friend. When the sun beats down
hot in the summer we are apt to think
it an enemy, but a week of clouds,
even in July, casts a gloom over
everything and makes both man and
beast at cross purposes with the world.
Sunshine is required to kill germs and
microbes and keep both animal and
human dispositions sweet. The Yer
monter's cow barn that must be built
so warm and tight lacks sunshine to
keep the inmates in the best of health.

der, tuberculosis is On the increase in
