IS SHIPMENTS Of iron ore from the
Lake Superior district for the sea-
son of 1910 will approximate $1,000.
GOO tons-thez biggest year in the
history of the district as ore ship-
ments are concerned. 1t is not 90
many years ago that total of twen-
ty millions for season excited the
wonder of all, and it will not be 90
many years hence that the paltry
fifty million shipment of 1910 will
be looked back upon with scorn.
And while the shipment of this vast
amount annually tends to reduce
the proven ore reserves and leaves
big holes in the big open pit mines
of the Mesaba, there is no fear of an
ore famine for many years to come
the proven ore bodies of this range
along being sufficient TO supply an
increasing market for several de-
cades. On the other hand, the re-
duction of the tariff on ore from 40
to 10 cents per ton is already CON-
mencing to turn the man with the
dollar to the Cuban and Canadian
fields, and the foreign ores will
shortly play big role in the con-
servation of the natural resources
of the Lake Superior district, al
though not particularly to the Diet
riment of the communities affected
and dependent upon mining activ-
tiles, as the additional tonnage an
nually demanded by the trade will
insure continuous growth of in
dustrial conditions on the ranges.

Two weeks hence we will offer a
fine Involvement on subscription,
therefore, line up your friends and
relatives and have them save their
subscription money for you. No
trouble at all to go out and collect
on subscriptions as the new law
now compels US to collect our SUBJ

will give prizes to the ladies that
can collect the most. The reward is
great, the time is short, the roads
are good and you cannot help but
collect lot of money. What will
pay you better than one of our
prizes for so short time? Nothing

DETERMINATION WINS.
Determination wins in the long
race. Victory is partly a mental
attitude. towards are conquered
before they fight. If you feel that
you have no chance, that instant
you've lost it.
Everything is uncertain before it
is attempted. Your first problem
is to get show, and now is the time
to commence.
There is too much theory of how
to be successful 1t isn't matter
to be figured out; it must be worked
out. Correspondence schools can't
teach you to be rich. There is no
rule by which fortune is won. The
problem is just the same az it was
at the beginning of time; we'll di-
rected effort backed by enthusiasm
and am bition, caution, care of de-
tail, and constant dissatisfaction
with yesterdays best-these are the
elements on which prosperity has
been founded since the start of
society.
If you are popular and am bitious
and don't back them, it's your fault,
80 start now; do not wait, for others
will get ahead of you.

incident which shows that at least one
poor old married man is wise to the ways

Some time ago Nhe judge said, friend
OF his who lives in a suburban town was
asked by his wife to get her a ready-made
shirtwaist while he was in this city, and
instead OF raising a majestic yelp, kick
ing the kioodlc through the door Of the
crystal closet and knocking down the
stovepipe he meekly replied that he would
be happy to oblige.
The noon hour found him in a depart
uont store, and after locating the counter
where female toggery is sold and waiting
for his turn at bat he gently remarked to
the sa.eslady that he would like to have a
shirtwaist for his wife.
