The Mysteries Of Youth
By Beatrice Fairfax

THOSE who have travelled the trou-
bled path of youth, when one
doesn't know what one wants
and is prodigal with emotions in trying
to find out. will smile indulgently over
the following letter:
There is so much in it of the human
nature that the years have taught those
who are older to guide and control. It
is like Youth!
Il am young girl of sixteen and
until few weeks ago had been going
with young man one year my senior.
Some childish misunderstanding had
broken our sincere friendship and since
then we just greet each other when we
meet and pass on.
To-day as l was walking along the
street / CHANGED to meet him. He was
with another girl He tipped his hat. !
looked at him and at the girl, and much
TO my horror / burst out laughing.
can not comprehend whatever pos
sessed me to do so. l am sure it was
not jealousy (for l pity the girD, and
every time ! think of 1t | just laugh
and laugh. Can you tell what it is that
makes me laugh?"
1t is the Mysteries of youth You
laughed because you are young. You
wanted to show by an Indifferent smile
that you DIDN'T care. And that smile
became a laugh! Being very young,
you laugh immoderately, and you cry
to excess.
You are like a swing that flies back
and forth as far as the rope permits.
When YOU get older. and it is time to
let the cat die" as they say when the
swinging nears an end, there will be
less of the extremes in all your emo
tons. You will never be so miserable
you can't see d ray of hope
I am sorry you laughed, but you
couldn't help it. l am sure 1t meant no
unkind feeling and that it was not the
laugh of resentment. But it is sure to
be misunderstood. A pleasant little
smile, such as you would give to mere
acquaintance, would have won for you
the admiration and respect of both your
former lover and your rival.
They viii not interpret that laugh to
your credit. You were not Jealous, you
say, yet a hysterical laugh would indi-
cate that you are. 1t showed that you

The Northern Pacific railway in
cooperation with the State Agricul-
tural college will operate an "Agri-
cultural Special train between Du-
luth and Staples and on the M. and I.
from Brainerd to International Falls,
beginning Monday, May 9th, and
continuing during two weeks. The

will be made up of cars for livestock,
baggage cars for farm machinery,
implements and apparatus for demon
stration purposes, passenger coaches
arranged for lectures, and a business
car where the lecturers will be taken
care of.
The purpose will be to demonstrate
the best methods of farming adapted
to northern Minnesota, and to pro-
mote the development of agriculture
in positive and practical way. Farm
animals, such as dairy COWS, pigs and
poultry, showing breeds adapted to
different uses, will be carried on the
train and exhibited, and demonstra-
tions given at each station. Dairy
utensils, tools for barn, garden and
field, farm machines, barn and poul-
try devices, and samples of seeds, will
be exhibited and demonstrated. At
each stop lectures applicable to the
agricultural needs and conditions in
that locality will be given by special
lists from the State Agricultural Col
lege. <-zz
Methods of land clearing, kinds of
crops, and ways of farming, will be
discussed, and farmers are invited TO
make the fullest use of the train and
to take advantage of this opportunity
to confer with agricultural experts
regarding their farm problems. OPP
portunity will be given those inter
ested to ask questions on live farm
topics, in fact, inquiries will be in
yited.
