A FATHERS CREED

7 believe that every child is entitled to the most
genial, intimate and confidential comradeship
with his father, and that the most helpful
thing in his manhood will be the memory that
his father loved him with a great affection,
trusted him with great faith, and shared with
him clean, rich noble joy of living.
Therefore l hope to live with such honour
and holiness that my children may feel sense
of pride in the name they bear, knowing that their
father left no stain upon it, and conscious Of their
responsibility to keep their heritage inviolate.
! would SO live that may face my children
day by day without any shame, knowing that no
thought or act of my life has been unworthy of
their innocence and goodness and that l have
the right to their confidence and love. / would
have our love mutual, so free and SO full of
confidence and sympathy and understanding that
they need never fear to come to me with any of
their burdens, blunders, errors or regrets
/, ] would have my life SO sincere, so patient
kindly, so dedicated to human service, so filled
with the spirit of love- that my children may be-
lieve nothing so worth while as sweetness, in
tegrty, hepfulness, purity, affection and spiritual
exaltation. And would have my companionship
with them so human SO full of honest mrth and
merriment, invested with the spirit of laughter,
that they may know Virtue is only great when
allied to joy.
Most of all l should wish that my life and
influence might give to them the certain faith
that the commonest dongs of the day are per-
formed against the background Of Eternity and
under the love Of God, and that the humblest life
may by choice be rich in possessions that cannot
be taken from it.
My richest reward would be the fact that
through their later years, when / gone, they
found in their memories of me rebuke to every
recreant and indolent lure, to every selfish and
ignoble aspiration, to all the sordidness of life
and to all the vain and futile things which tempt
men from their immortal occupations.
God help me to be worthy of all their child
ish hero-worship, of all their dreams of what
am. Make me somewhat like the Ideal Man they
picture me. And if on far day one
should say to any child of mine: "Your life has
blessed the world may that child be able to say
in love and pride: THAT is because my father
lives in me-" Larry Ho.

Women lobbyists had hard time proving
whether Governor Preus 'for 'em agin
'em' when Representative Myrtle Gains so-called
womens equal-rights bill was before the House
last week. Both sides quoted from the same
letter to prove their point. That is what we call
diplomacy on Jake's part. w. w. Hodson called
the bill ga boomerang. We are inclined to think
it is something even more dangerous than that.
Legislation for the social protection of women
is too vital thing to be trusted to any blanket
bill.

The next time out-of-town silk-stOcking
agent comes to your door it may be wise for you
to meet him with more or less icy stare and
line of talk something like this "My dear sir;
need nothing in the way of silk stockings with
which the merchants of this town cannot supply
me. If they haven't them on hand they will get
them for me, and much prefer to pay them the
commission since they are my friends and neigh
bors, since they helping to keep alive all the
beneficial things of the community and much
more entitled in every way to my support than
you can possibly be. Your goods may be good
and your prices right, but theirs-and in
common justice they should be given my patron
age" Talk to them all that way-treat 'em
rough! Whatever they selling, be it portable
palaces or milking stools, the answer is the same.
Redwood Falls dealers are particularly up and
coming; they perfectly willing to procure the
things you want that they may not have in stock.
And remember on every article sold, one
is going to get commission; if there no
commissions it would be impossible to carry on
business. Pay your commission to the man who
is going to keep it moving right around in his
and your own home town. The spring crop of
agents of one sort or another is about fat enough
to kill-let's go after them! Your town doesn't
even get the benefits of>a "peddlers" license from
the most of those who come here representing
outside concerns.

bill has been introduced in the Minnesota
legislature making it crime for newspaper
to publish anything untrue concerning candi-
date for office. There is law now on the statute
books which makes it criminal to print an un-
truth concerning any person. Do legislators
want us to consider them as all by them
selves and therefore needing special legislation?
Looks to us from where we stand to be heap
sight of foolishness about any such bill as that
also some time-wasting for which tax
payers pay!

Commissioner Babcock of the state
highway department told senate COM
mittee this week that $4,000 automobile
owners in Minnesota are evading the
state tax. Wisconsin license plates, he
said, were being used instead and many
were getting away with it. He declared
there was regular traffic in Wisconsin
licenses which could be procured for
$1,000 each.
Minnesota should certainly be proud of own
ne a bunch of slackers like that!

This is canned foods week We don't know
that the editors family will observe it by the us
ing of any more canned foods than usual but we
are taking advantage of it to express ap-
probation for the many splendid varieties of can
ned foods now on the market. There was time
when housewife who dared to throw empty
tin out where her neighbors could see it was
forever afterward known "shiftless". But
time has changed this attitude as it has changed
public opinion many things. Canneres are
expert than the most expert house
keeper in the canning of staple fruits and vege
tables and in these days of high fuels, high fruit
and negotiable costs and high labor, it proves
more economical in the majority of cases for the
homekeeper to buy many things ready canned
than to buy her materials, buy her fuels and
then spend long hours in canning them or in en-
during the agony of seeing some incompetent
"help" utterly ruin them. Where things
raised in back yard garden or on the farm, can
ming is economical and the quality of the canned
article is likely to be of the best because of the
possibility of getting fresh materials And of
course the real housewife likes always to have
her fruit cellar well stocked with the extra
specials" of one sort and another which factories
have not yet undertaken to make. But for stan
dard articles, the ready canned if reliable brand
is selected, is good, economical and the greatest
of labor savers In the case of some housemoth-
ers who are also wage earners they are real
godsend. Men may still think that the use of
"boughten" canned stuff is an unfailing sign of
laziness but the everage woman knows it is some
thing much bigger and better than that.

Don't forget to put out little bite-of-s some
thing to-eat for the birds. Because of this
rather sudden spring weather many of them are
appearing the scenes and if they aren't pro-
vided for in some way they will suffer much and
perhaps starve before food becomes plentiful.
They will repay you thousand times for any
little trouble you may take in their behalf. I'm
asmuch as you do it unto the least of these
you know how it goes!

Fred Hadley, the Man Who Made Winnie
bago Famous 1--WE are not quite sure just what
it is famous forD is spending the winter in Cali
forna. He recently visited Hollywood and he
has few words to say about it in his home
version is rather comforting and soothing after
all the highly seasoned things we have been FED
about this section of movie-land.
Probably no place in the world is
well advertised as Hollywood And pro-
baby no place in the world is more mali
gned and misunderstood Hollywood is
simply residential section of Los An
geles. 1t is beautifully located, and is
famous for its movie stars and movie
studios. 1t is the very heart and center
of filmdom. Hollywood, in the minds of
some, is a place that is reeking with
vice and wickedness; place where the
poor he-tourist from Iowa is in danger
every minute from the female vampire.
But, Hiram, you will be perfectly safe in
Hollywood-just as safe you would
be on Main Street in Winnebago-and
you know, Hiram, that one there is
going to carry you off. A few film stars
have given Hollywood a rather lurid
putation-but where will you find
community of one hundred thousand
people where few do not tread the
primrose path, and bring disaster upon
themselves? There are thousands upon
thousands of people in Hollywood who
are just as lawabiding and respectable
in every way as are the residents of
any town."

Editor j. p. COughlin of the Waseca
Herald was elevated to the presidency
of the Minnesota Editorial Association,
last week. and Editor Carl Eastwood of
the LIE Sueur Herald elected third
vice president which means that under
long established precedent Carl will
be in line for the presidency three years
hence. Both honors were well deserved
and worthily bestowed.-New Prague
Times.
Suits us fine too, only we wondering,
with Brother Coughlin getting in his character
istic licks for the next year, what there will be
left for the others to do as they gradually come
to the front. By that time there won't be any
campaign necessary, the
foreign advertisers will all know whose boss
round here, and rates will have become cOnsi-
stent and persistent. By the time it gets to Carl
there wont be any work left to do. But Carl can
nearly always be depended on to start some
thing!

Mr. Business Man, write your senator
and representative to vote against the
proposed unemployment bill if you
value your future business life. The
measure is socialstic i'm the extreme.
If it passes, burden will be sadded on
to the ordinary man of business which
he will be unable to carry, and in addi-
tion it will make beggar class of men
who are released from job because of
conditions that neither the employer
employee are to blame for, and who will
be willing to accept the provisions of the
measure rather than get out and hustle
for another position. The Minnesota
legislature has many damphool mea-
sures before it this year, and we con-
slider this measure more than socialistic.

HOW TO KEEP \ CLEAR SKIN
Copyright 1898 by NEA Service

The pores OF our bodies have lit
lie sacs at their base in which is
natural oil.
This oil feeds our skin and the
amount OF the oil gauges the amount
of our flesh.
These pores not only feed our skin
hut they also throw off our bodily
impurities.
The pores of the face. being OK
posed to the elements without pro-
lection. get much more usage than
those of the rest OF the body.
So the pores of the face become
clogged with dirt very quickly and.
unless these pores are properly
cleaned. the dirt obstructs their ac-
tion. causing a bad complexion.
To correct this condition. one
should use mud pack. to stimulate
the circulation of tho blood. which
