DEFECT IN GOOD OLD DAYS
Children Of Large Families Were Un
derfed, Overworked, Beaten
and ~ Treated.

We are told by many that the mod
ern woman is becoming forgetful that
her chief and highest duty Ia to rear
children In the fear OF the Lord. or
that If she recognizes this duty she Is
reb Ilious against 1t. And we are
pointed admiringly and regretfully to
the good old days when mothers saw
tnCir duty to church and state, and
mCCkly performed II In the shape OF
families of eight, twelve and fifteen.
There are only two defects In this
beautiful dream OF the days Of old
fhe first is that neither the fathers
nor the mothers of these huge families
bad any particular intention, or, In.
deed. any ID IA, Of sacrificing them
selves for the race. or doing their
duty by the community; they were
simply following their instincts and
taking the consequences more or less
Eaticntly-and stupidity. The second Is
that with the exception OF the small
Glasses Of independent means, these
large families. II valued at all, we're
valued chiefly as source OF income
to their parents from the earnings or
work OF the children during their time
OF dependence. We do we'll to de-
nounce the modern sweatshop. or the
factory or mine crowded with child
workers, but let us remember that a
large percentage Of the children Of
these huge families, among the work.
ing and farming classes a hundred
years ago were more underfed. over

ed physically and deformed mentally
than of the children OF any civilized
community today, even In factory

THE ROAD TO SUCCESS

Just tack this up somewhere
were you can see it:
Success consists in getting out
of yourself everything that's in
you. 1t does not consist in doing
almost quite as much or a little
more than the other fellow. What
the other fellow does doesn't
amount to dent in door-knob SO
far as you are concerned. The fact
that the succeeds by laying an
Atlantic cable, building an EiffeI
tower. inventing wireless tcleg-
raphy or cornering the worlds
supply of oil doesn't make you
failure because you haven't got
enough ready money to buy al
automobile. You're successful
when you put to some useful
p urpose every ounce of energy,
every grain of gray matter every
mite of muscle that you've got.

BOTTLE FLOATED kCR.55 SCI
Picked Up In the Azores Three Years
After Being Cast Adrift Off
Carolina Coast.

Floating siuggishly at the mercy OF
the waves for over three years a pint
bottle containing the address Of vii.
liam n. Windo!ph, this city, travelled
across the Atlantic ocean and was
finally picked up of the eastern coast
OF the Azores about 1ve weeks ago
The hayward travels Of the little
bottle are most mysterious. It crossed
the Atlantic or at least reached the
other shore: whether currents or
winds took 1t miles In detour before
1t reached its destination Is a subject
OF conjecture.
On January 81 1907, Mr.. Windolph
on his way to Tampa and Key West
passed down the coast Of the Caro-
linas in Merchants and Miners

Carolina in an idle moment he put his
card within whisky bottle and push.
Ing In the cork against the rail- Of the
vessel tossed II overheard. Until It
disappeared from sight In the green
waves Mr.. Windolph watched the tiny
adv"1turer, never thinking to hear
fro. 1t again.
Three and one-halt years after the
card had been sent out on the sea a
strange letter came to him from the
fishing firm Of Manuel Vasconcelles &
Co. Spain. Within the envelope was
the same card which he had sent out
unstained by the water. unlnjured aft
er it's long voyage.
With the card was a letter stating
that II had been picked up in a whisky
bottle on the eastern coast OF the
Azores. in the province Of Prala, by
one OF the crew OF the fishing smack
ID. Carlos, DeLonza, captain. The let
ter was in excellent English. but but
from the style had evidently been
written by an educated Spaniard. II
did not state the exact date OF the
finding OF the bottle.-Philadelph

ers to Coast States.

That the tide of settlement is grad
ually turning from the western coast
states and covering the northwest
and northern Minnesota especially, is
revealed by the fact that the colony
rates to the coast, which went into
effect on all the railroads on Septem-
Der | 5, have not brought out more
than about SO per cent as many inn
migrants this fall as during previous
years. At the same time migration
to this section has never been SO
great as during this season. This
statement was made by railroad
man in Duluth: "For some time
there has been an erroneous opinion
that northern Minnesota, while pos
sessing enormous mineral and tim
Der resources, is not at all what it
should be for agricultural purposes.
This fallacys is now exploded, and it
is becoming widely known that vast
sections in this part of the state are
unequalled in fertility of soil and
climatic conditions are productive of
the finest results. It is doubtful if

Unless all signs go astray the

$50 of them from San Francisco

Fredericks estimates that the pros

The cost of service on these witness

the trial the most expensive that
the country has ever known. Mr..

pense of the defense at 100000,
while it is believed it will cost the
prosecution not less than $4,000.

In the schools Of Austria the chill
dren are taught to carry several
sheets of writing paper in their
pockets at all times. Then, when a
child is thirsty, he can roll one of
the sheets into7 cone and make a
perfectly serViceable cup which may
be placed, after being used, in, the
nearest waste paper box. How to
roll the cones deftly is taught the
children. The tearing of notch
about half an inch long near one
end before rolling the cone serves
to make the improved cup stronger.

Although our men were handi-

dent from the first that the game
was theirs. Less than five minutes
after the ball had been put in play
Will Macdonald carried it over the
goal line for touchdown He failed
to kick goal and the score stood five
to nothing in favor of Bemidji. On
the kickoff Thief River made a fuke.
and failed to raise the ball above
center. Bemidji raced down the field
but was held 20 yards from the goal.
Bailey, the quarterback, succeeded in
drop-kicking and at the end of the
first quarter the score was 8 to moth
ing.
The ball was in the strangers ter
ritory most of the second quarter, but
our boys failed to score. Although
the local team played hard, the phe-
nomenal defense of the Thief River
men prevented them from raising the
score during the third quarter.
The last quarter was scarcely be-
gun when Peck, Bemidjia star half
back, crossed the line with the pig
skin. An excellent goal kick by
Macdonald made the score IA to 0.
Bemidji kicked off; Thief River lost
the ball on downs; Bailey carried the
ball twenty yards, and Peck made
touchdown; score 10 to 0. The
rest of the game was mere walk

extraordinary runs, and two more
touchdowns before the final whistle
