Minot Dairy Company Phone 570 Inspiration Miscellany Perils of Middle Age Middle age, whose date is suggested by Acts as being in and after the forties, is a neglected period from the sympathetic point of view. It is cred ited with full development of one's powers, with having won a place In the world, with mastery of some chos en calling. Its independence and strength are regarded as freeing it from need for and claim upon sym pathy. Yet middle age meets with tempta tions and perils peculiar to itself. Its round of routine and Its settled state contain risks. It faces the danger which ruined Moab of old, that of set tling down upon the lees. Israel kept alive because it was shaken to and fro and reacted vitally. But Moab stag nated and sank iuto the sleep that knew no waking. Yet the central decades of life have compensations. There are gains for the losses. The fret and fever of youth have ceased, the follies and Inexperi ence, the teasing limitations placed by capacity upon aspirations. The slow ing down of physical vigor is balanced by composure and vigor of spirit. Fore sight has come to do what youth's fierce energy could not achieve. The torrent of enthusiasm has been har nessed and the leaping current has be come the leashed millrace which drives the wheels of productive power. Middle life, when a man has lived as he should, brings the steady eye that sees the whole instead of the parts some sense of the relative values of things balance of Judgment sagacious ness in the conduct of life. It acquires reasonable optimism and steadfast courage. It has learned the man's limitations aud powers, what he can do and what not. It not seldom finds new powers developing, of which youth had no promise and gave no hint. The greatest danger of middle age, the most grievous evil which can befall it, is the closed mind or the petrified heart. Stereotyped standards of judg ment and ruts of labor are fatal to the spiritual unci intellectual growth of the middle aged. Spokane Spokesman Review. The Joy of Living.

Physical courage is universally ad. mired. The hero who exhibits intrepid courage in rescuing another is certain of applause. To win such admiration many become foolhardy. The man of real courage will not do this. He finds no need of exhibitions of false courage. He knows that moral courage is of a higher and finer quality, than physical courage. True, it is not so sure of rec ognition. Moral courage is often shown in lives so unostentatious that no one realizes their nobility. Many a man is a hero unknown to all, and no one can know all the moral force of a man who acts from conscience. The world's martyrs have been moved by moral courage, but many a man has put forth "equal courage of whom the world has never known. One must have something of moral courage to recognize it in another. Children usually learn easily to see and admire physical courage. They have to be taught the value of moral courage. This quality learned in youth develops men of the highest character, the men most useful to neighborhood and state, men tit to be leaders of public affairs. It happeus sometimes that a man's convictions are n.ot founded on sound reason. Better so than that he should lack moral sense. In cultivating cour age we should not neglect to cultivate a reasonable conscience which distin guishes between right and wrong. Milwaukee Journal. Our Batter Nature.

If Not Kept Cluan Is a Menace to the Health of the Family. One of the most important articles of household equipment Is the unassum ing und, it is to be feared, often neg lected icebox. There is no greater menace to the health of the family than a refrigera tor which does not refrigerate or one which It is impossible to keep in a per fect sanitary condition. The least important thing about a re frigerator is its outside appearance. While the expensive porcelain and enamel ones are pleasant to own, a less expensive hardwood one with a smooth, plain surface is just as satis factory and easy to clean. Coolness, cleanliness and convenience are* the three "c's" that are absolutely essential to the construction of a re frigerator. Always wash the ice before putting it into Its compartment, otherwise the straws and dust may clog up the drain pipe. The floors and shelves of the refrig erator should be washed every day with a solution of soda, and at least once a week the refrigerator should be thoroughly cleaned. Use a solution of soda and water to clean out the drain pipe and pan. Then scald them out thoroughly with 'boil ing water.—New York Telegram. STRENGTH OF WOOD. :'i Tha Pressure It Took to Break a Beam of Douglas Fir. A. piece,of Douglas iir, 10 feet long and 16 by 8 inches in cross section, stood a pressure of 88,400 pounds be fore breaking at the test conducted in the engineering laboratory of the Uni versity of Washington by C. W. Zim mermann of the United States forest service. The experiment was a demonstration of the standard used by the forest serv ice to testing bridge spans. The beam was held by a fifteen foot support, and the. load was concentrated at two points five feet from each end of the beam. Aa pressure was applied the beam continued to bend until the point of maximum deflection was reached. Measurements were then taken, and it was found that the beam had bent 2.85 inches under the pressure of 50,000 pounds. This occurred two ininutes after the test started. Bight minutes later, after 88,400 ponnds of additional weight had been added, the beam broke. During this time there was no further deflection of the piece, Mr. Zimmermann explained that the small fibers of the wood were continually giving way under the pres sure, and at the end of eight minutes the'beam, sufficiently .weakened, snap ped suddenly, ,v This Pathephone With 1*2 Beautiful Pathe' Selections for $79— ACOMPLETEoutfit of superb musical quality that you can buy on the easiest of terms—as low as $5 a month if you like.
