1t sometimes pays to suffer adversely
Just for the sake of learning how good
ones friends will be. Several OF the
exchanges this week report instances of
where farmers have left their own grain
standing uncut in the fields and gone to
the assistance OF neighbor who had
suffered misfortune and was unable TO
take care of his own crop. One of the
men who was killed in the Fairmont
railroad crossing accident a couple OF
weeks ago owned big farm and his
neighbors did their best for the family
by turning out in force with their teams
and binders and harvested the entire
crop. 4 farmer at St. James was badly
injured by q colt and his neighbors took
the responsibil iCies Of his harvest off his
hands while he has been in the hospital
and another Fairmont farmer learned
that not only his neighbors but the bust
ness men Of the city had his misfortune
in mind for while the farmer neighbors
cut the grain the business men did all
The shocking.
We do not envy the man OF wealth.
We have no jealousy in our heart for his
mansion, his servants and his Limousine.
We care not for his estates. All we
want in this world is comfortable home,

is as rich as any man should be; and he
who has no friends is indeed poverty
stricken, even though he count his
dollars by the million and his land by the
mile. Yes, give US friends, just friends,
and we will not covet anything that you
have now or may later attain.-Wlnne-

having a millonaire's purse to draw on
when his coal bills come in.

The Nicollet Leader offers a plan for
Preparedness that beats any other we
have recently heard of. The course to
pursue, according to the Leader, is to
mind ones own business and mind it
good and hard. The only trouble with
the plan is that so many people do not
seem to know just what is their own
business and what is the other fellows
concern. A sure method of determining
this knotty point is the next question
to be solved by the Leader

A Marshall man recently requested
all who might want to visit his home
during his absence and prepare meal,
to be kind enuf to wash the dishes before
leaving. What does that man expect
of his visitors? If they wanted to wash
dishes they could stay at home. The
Marshall man was peeved because some
one entered his home while the family
was gone and apparently enjoyed feed.
Sleepy Eye business men were here
last week looking over the Carnival
which held forth here. The Sleepy Eye
Herald Dispatch says they were looking
for attractions for their Fair. One
would think they should have had
enough carnivals, judging from reports
of the one they did have, recently.
When lacking up your signs, don't
forget that it is unlawful to place them
on bridges. The state will refuse to

To leave a washed out bridge on 9
