last New Years card, sit down
and address few good resolu-
tons to yourself. But this time
don't close the incident with a
wish. All your life long you
have been hoping that good luck
would watch out for you for the
rest of the year. Turn about in
1914 and try hard work. Provi-
dence has bad memory for
those who do not help them
selves. Fortune doesn's canvass
from door to door. You can be
or have as much as your equal
if you do as much.
There are no limits to the pos
sibility of human will. But de-
sire is not a creative force. Hope
is only an architect. You must
build as well as pan. Those
who have accomplished the most
are not necessarily superior hui
man beings. Man does not per-
form miracles he merely achieves
practical results through
earnest application. In every
community there are a few per-
sons who think clearly, cling to
their determinations, and persist
in their efforts to rise. The tools
for success are standard. They
belong to rich and poor alike.
No sound and whole body enters
this world possessed of faculties
which nature will not bestow
upon all humanity.
But you and the majority of
your acquaintance have made
no genuine attempt to utilize
your advantages to the utmost.
You have, not done justice to
your gifts. You have not even
examined your machine shop.
Back of your forehead there is
an equipment of lathes, drills,
engines and dynamos, which,
when, properly applied, can per-
form any task.
Time and again you have COM
planned of your chances, when
all the while opportunity has
been sign alling you, smiling,
calling, and crooking her finger
in your direction, every hour of
every day. How often have you
to your friends that
you had thought of a device, an
Improvement, an enterprise, or
IN idea, which rendered another
nan famous or affuent? You
lren's handicapped except by
your lack of iniative. You aim
90 low. You tire too easily.
Your ambitions are common
,lace. You lack daring and dog
,edness.
To which you probably

they are seriously attempted.
So, here's hoping that the
New Year bring you to yourself.
Faith is the key to every treas

Nineteen-fourteen offers you

provided you with advantages
which your grandfather could
not imagine, much less secure,
and yet out of his time spran G
men who were giants of COM
merce and unequalled in states
manship. If you are half as
earnest as they were, you can
win with half the effort they did.
Responsibilities aren't handi-
caps, but incentives. When we
fight for those who are not near
and dear we wage better bat
tie than if we seek selfshly. Bur
den-bearing strengthens; it does
not weaken. The need and wei
fare of wives and parents and
children are spurs, not shackles.
Stay at home. Prosperity doesn't
belong in any one spot; it does
not require certain soil or a
special climate. 1t finds fertile
ground everywhere. Openings
do not come ready-made. Ca
pability can assert itself in vii
lage as quickly as in the Metrop-
oils, There are many more fail
ures pro rata to the population
in big cities than in cross-road
settlements. Skyscrapers and
tenement walls cut off the hori-
zon and shorten perspective, but
out in the open where skies are
illimitable and the distances are
purple, there's room enough to
think to the roof of the universe.
Believe in yourself, and then
equip your body and your brain
to fulfill your aspirations. Live
sanely, think fearlessly, and dare
to dream, and then set about
finding a road for your ambition.
You can survey it, within your
own heart-persistence and
courage will guide to all goals.
No man is greater than his
resolution. Success, like charity, |
must begin at home. Society
does not help those who do not
help themselves. The world
n either elects nor selects its
leaders. 1t acknowledges their
superiority only after the indi-
vidual has forced his fellows to
realize his strength.
You must uncover your tai
ents before your neighbors can
discover them. Form the &C
quaintance of your latent self.
There's a superior being Turk
ing within almost every COM
mon place human, unable to as
sert his individuality because his
other self won't give him hear
ing. In your heart of hearts,
you know that you have never
explored your hidden store of in
stincts and attributes. During
the past twelve months, you
have probably not made one
earnest attempt to drag your
bigger personality out of its con-
,ealment You've accepted con-
1itions as you found them-not
that you aren't aware that
changes could be made
light in your own community.
lime and again you've remarked
hat some fellow ought to take
hold of things and put some
spirit into the town.
You're the man. You don't

future if you remove your self

One of the worst blizzards
that this great Bowbells coun-
try experienced in the last three
years took place on Monday of
this week, starting at about
four o'clock in the morning and
lasting until late in the after
noon. During this time it
was impossible to see for any
distance over 80 feet, the air
being full Of snow. The air,
however, was not cold. Sever

way on coming up to the bus

their homes, but as near as we
can learn no fatalities lresulted

sia Mmot, N. D., Feb. 1O.-Miss
Ella NUline, sister Of Mrs. Dud-
LEY T.. Nash Of this city, and
la prominent resident of Devils
Lake, was burned to death this
afternoon while she was filling
la coal stove in her room there.
Details as to how the accident
occurred are somewhat meagre
|and will probably never be
positively known, for she was
alone when the accident oc-
Cured. 1t is presumed, how
ever, that her clothing became
|ignited while she was filling
the stove and she was unable
to extinguish the flame.
Miss Uline sustained badly
burned hand about a week ago
and this was, probably respon-
sible in : a measure for the ac-
|cident in the first place, as it
left her helpless to extinguish
the flames when her cothes
lcaught fire. When found she
was lying on the floor, her
body burned almost to a crisp
and life extinct.
The deceased was a daugh-
ter of Col. Uline, a prominent
pioneer Of Devils Lake and
was we'll known in Devils Lake
and vicinity. During the past
twelve years she has been dep

The fire soon broke out after
the arrival Of the department
and the explosion Of a keg !. of

the large plate glass windows
out into: the street. The con-
hagration then reached it's
height, and the 1neager water

hard work the fire was confined
to the one building, and only
slight damage caused to other

Anton Frank Appeals to Dis
.trict Court to Settle Mixed
Up Matter

An interestingg case was
heard in district court in this
city on Monday afternoon of
last week when Anton Frank of
Ignite brought suit to clear
the title of the land on which
the village of Ignite now
stands. This quarter was orig
inally filed on by Wensel Frank,
who died several years after fill
ing. Wensel left no will, and his
estate was never probated, but
his father, Anton Frank, prov
ed up the tract as heir and next
+of kin: Later when the road
was built through the land and
"a townsite was plated, Mr..
Frank started selling lots, and
many small pieces of reality
there had changegd hands sew
eral times. It was not until this
winter that it was learned that
as the estate of Wensel had not
been probated, Mr.. Frank had
no legal right to the land. An
abstract to several lots there
could not be completed, hence
Mr.. Frank brought suit to have
the estate cleared. No one ap-
peared to conest his rights and
he was given a full title to the
land by Judge Leighton.

Chris Person Of Fargo, who
wrestled with S. A. I Stefono-

last Friday evening, still has the
honor of holding the champion
ship of the state, having thrown
Stefonowicz twice in success
sion, the first round lasting %
minutes and the second %.
Some $50 people were present
Ito see the match and all were
greatly satisfied with the ex-
exhibition, feeling that they re-
ceived more than their moneys
worth. Person weighs about
II pounds more than Stefono-
wicz and has made: a business
|of wrestling during the past
fourteen years, in that time
meeting some of the best mat
artists in the world. There
was no question as to what the
result Of the match Friday
night would be, as Stefono-
Wicz had no chance Of winning,
and it was only a question of
how long he could hold out with
Person. The match was ex-
|ceedingly interesting and
though Stefonowicz found it
impossible to throw his oppon-

and wound up by Mooney
