Particularly # It's Your Own Fault the
 World Looks Black.
 When you feel down in the mouth and long to go away and hide yourself forever; when you imagine that no one in the world is treating you right; when you are satisfied that your em' ployer is tardy in recognizing your genius; when you can't divorce your self from the idea that you are doing the work and the other fellow is get ting the credit; when the time you spend at your work seems intermina- ble and the time away from it seems woefully short; when all the sky seems to possess leaden hue; when every thing irritates you like salt on an open wound; when the laugh of a child grates on your nerves; when the food you eat disagrees with you
 Straighten up and take an inventory of yourself. Maybe it is with you that the fault lies. Perhaps the rest of the world is but mirror. Don't imagine you are carrying the world on your shoulders. The browbeaten man is too often creature of his own mak- ing He insists on carrying the Old Man of the Sea on his back when the world is willing to relieve him of the burden 1t is surprising how many worries we can banish by making up our mind resolutely that we will not give them room in our thoughts.-ln- dianapolis News.

Wills and Edmund kean.

Irving used to tell with dramatic ef- feet story about w. G. Wills. the dramatist. who. among other services, wrote for him the play "Charles l." When Wills was a boy ten years old he was taken to see Edmund Kean play Macbeth. In the murder scene he was so affected by the realistic power of the actor that. seized with a severe attack of nausea, he hurried from the box. Ten years later he was lunching at a chop house in Fleet street when a man entered, sat down at a table near him and ordered a meal. He was perfect stranger to Wills. who. after few minutes propinquity. was again seized with fit of nausea. from which he had not suffered since as a boy he was at the theater on the occasion mentioned. He was obliged to leave the room. When some min utes later he paid his bill the waiter said to him: "Did you see that gentle man at the table near you! That's Edmund an"-Cornhill Magazine.
 Toys During the French Revolution
 Tie toys of the French revolution period were characteristic of that ter rible time. There are tops whose shadows cast the profile portraits Of Louis XVI. and Marie Antoinette. These are turned in boXwood and are indeed interesting "reminiscences ot toys with the impress of history. The children of the revolution had their tiny Phrygian caps and danced the hor- rible carmagnoles in their play. Little models of the guillotine were made to work" and the bodies of pigs with heads of Louis XVI. were decapttated Models of the Bastille were popular.

A STUBBORN ARTIST.

Mansfield Wanted . Likeness. and the
 Painter Gave 1t.
 Richard Mansfield once asked Frank A. Nankivell to make picture of him. The actor explained that he wanted an imitation of an old Roman coin with his own profile shown instead ot Caesars.
 Do you want an absolute likeness. or shall I idealize it bitf" asked Nan. kivell.
 Il want an absolute likeness" re- piled MT. Mansfield stiff1y. and the artist made sketch of his patron.
 When the completed picture-a splen. did piece of work that looks as if it were embossed - was shown to MT Mansfield he was not pleased.
 Ut looks like prizefghter." said Mir. Mansfield.
 'That is not my fault," said Nanki yell. You know that you said you wanted likeness"
 There was further exchange or |courtesies, and then Mansfield sug- gested that the artist try again. "Ex cuse me-" said Nankjveli "Once will do me-"
 Well. change this picture little," said the actor. "Perhaps you can fix 1t up."
 Not fix" said the artist as he rolled up the picture and prepared to go with parting shot You don't want an artist to draw your picture: you want lithographer. Good day"

LVARADO RICHEST
VILLAGE IN [. s.
Relegates to Rear Argyle's Claim tt
This Distinctions. Statements show
$1,599.ss Per Capita.

For some time the daily papers of
the northwest have given consider
able attention to items from villages
claiming to be the richest in wealth
per capita in the United States.
Several towns in North Dakota came
out several weeks ago and claimed
this distinction and among them
Bottineau, which gave it's wealth per
capita as $735.59. Later Argyle
proved that it had the North Dakota
city beat by a mile, as their wealth
for every man, woman and child in
the village was $824.W. Now the lat
est claimant for this distinction is the
village of Alvarado on the 500 line
west of this city. The bank state
ments Of this village show that they
have $319,977.62 on deposit. Placing
the population Of Alvarado at 200,
which is quite an increase over the
1910 census, this will place the per
capita wealth Of the village at
81 ,599.88. These figures are so much
greater than those Of the other con-
testing villages, that it seems as if
there can be no dispute as to which
is now the richest, since Alvarado's
entrance in the race. However, it
can be set down as fact that the
richest town must be Marshall county,
as it has two villages that claim to be
the wealthiest of any in the whole
United States.

where changes must be made are:
Bagley, Jordan, Kasson, OsaEis, Oslo,
Osseo, South Haven, Taopi, Twin VAL
ley, Winsted, Wood Lake, Chokio and
Rainier. Whether the Oslo Jail will be
repaired is rather doubtful, as when
the village goes dry in December they
will have no use for a lookup. At
least let us hope so.

COUNTY BANK IS
DEPOSITS : :
About ss,5oo,ooo On Deposit in the
Financial Institutions of Mar
shall County.

Perhaps the best method of ascer-
tanning the prosperity of MARSHALL
county is by finding the total of de-
posits in the different banks in the
county. BY doing this we find that
there is approximately $3,500,000 in
their strong boxes, according to the
last call for bank statements, on Nov.
10. With this large amount in safe
keeping, the Marshall county farmer
and business man should not be talk
ing Of hard times and this you very
seldom hear them do. Probably the
main reason for this splendid show
ing is due to the bumper crops just
harvested and partly to the better
farming methods that have been
adopted by the progressive Marshall
county farmer.
If this $3,5O0,000 were divided
among every man woman and child
in the county each would receive
about $215.22. 1t can be easily seen
that if this county should suffer from
hard times or crop failure it could
survive without any great difficulty
for year or two.
These figures show that Warren
leads as banking center having
81, ,O43. .564.O8 which is the most that
has ever been on deposit in the local
banks. Argyle ranks second and has
s736, ,525.O0, Stephen comes third hav-
ing $43O,14O.O8, and Alvarado is
fourth with $319,977.62.
Below we give the total deposits of
each banking point in the county, as
nearly complete as we could obtain
same. AS there are three banks yet to
hear from it is believed they will
make the total $3,5OOOOO.

The Only Kind of Cow That Pays.

Lie Only hmQ OF Cow That Pays
From several years records Of milk
production and cost of mainteance it
has been found that a COW must pro-
duce at least 200 pounds of butter fat
or about 5000 pounds Of milk annual
" if she is to pay her way. This
means 19 pounds Of milk daily for
800 days. The annual cost of main
tanning cow is close to $65.OO, if a
man values his labor at Is cents an
hour. If a man wants more than a
market price for feed and this bare
wage, he must put his time on cows
giving more than 200 pounds of fat.
The larger the increase over this
amount the larger his pay will be-
