MINNESOTA'S TRUST FI ND
REMARKABLE
By conserving its natural re
sources, preserving its gifts from
the nation, husbanding its revenue
and income from land sales and
from timber and iron oro royalties,
and by holding intact all accretloi
to the capital thus acquired and in
tended to be used in furtherance
<sf educational and other public pur
poses, Minnesota has accumulated a
trust fund amounting to $30,221,
418, a t>um exceeding, it is held,
that of the combined funds of sim
ilar character in twenty out o: the
twenty-five states oast of the Missi
ssippi river. This has not been ac
complished, of course, without con
siderable self-douial and self-sacri
fice on the part of Minnesota's peo
ple. By throwing the resources of
their state wide open to all comers,
as their neighbors did very large
ly, they could have induced eirlier
and greater exploitation of those
resources, calling it development,
and with this a greater flow of
investment capital and immigration;
but they were wise, we think, to
let their state take on its growth
in a more conservative way.
The state had advantages enough
to offer liomeaeekors and Investor
without granting them prizes to
the impairment of its peruianeut
capital; and one of the results o:
its indisposition to dispossess itsolf
in order to provide more for the
incomer than perhaps he was en
titled to, is its ownership today of
lands granted by the government
which yield an annual income to its
treasury of $1,200,000.
All such income—all income de
rived from its property in trust and
from its trust fund—goes toward
the maintainance of its university.
its other state schools, to educa
tion in general, and to bridge and
road improvements. The trust fund
.can never be diverted from sueli
| uses and can never be diminished.
It is the existence of this fund that
makes possible a statement of such
import as that the educational in
stitutions of Minnesota "are un
ique in presenting a complete sys
tem of secularized school instruction
in which tuition is absolutely free
of charges, from A B C 4.o the doc
torate of philosophy." This is some
thing to be justly proud of, and
wherever there is opportunity for
any state or any province in any
country now laying the foundation
of government and society to se
cure as patrimony for the schools
large tracts or undeveloped terri
tory, the example of Minnesota may
well be potent. Take long rather
than short views of the problem.
Let the increment of value that
follows growth of population come
to the state and to the schools
rather than to speculators in lauds.
If money is needed immediately de
rive it from leases and rentals and
not from sales. If mineral wealth i
discovered retain title but permit
mining on a royalty basis. Thus
may a statu or province eudow its
own educational institutions, lesseu
tile burden of direct taxation, and
nvo:d repinings over waste of capi
ta 1 entrusted to it by the central
govcniaeut.—C. S. Monitor.
WUITIXU EFFECTIVE A1)S.
Tlxe supposed difficulty in writ
i/.g skiiltu| advertising, in the case
uf some merchants, is a bugbear in
the way of publicity work. It oc
casionally happens that merchants
never advertise because they feel
that they have too little time, or
too little brains, to write advertis
ing that shall have selliug power.
a well written advertisement
is not a matter of smart sentences,
humr.-.oils conceits, or literary gifts.
1* is simiilv the art of talking direct
:'bout your goods and their prices,
as a merchant would talk to a man
over the counter. Any one who is
able to conduct a store can do it.
The force of those statements
was finely illustrated in an actual
experience that came to the ears
o" the writer a short time ago. One
o h.^ i>'uds is a business man who
h I :u:il some success in advertis
ing and selling a proposition of
h - o'-vn invention. He had no spec
ial s or tricks of expression. Vet
lie mcc ceded in selling his goods.
I'-.c-l . perhaps that a trained ad
vertisement writeri could do still
betu r, he sought out a competent
and hv'hly trained man in that
l.ne in the nearest largo city talked
cyit his proposition, and showed him
'.it of his previous publicity work.
The li'ofessional writer took the
r. ateriitl and put In quite a lot of
work producing a form letter. It
had ali the ear marks of profes
sional ad-writing work. It was
snn i'i, pe.somil, intimate and
The work was accepted and sent
out to the mailing list. The pro
moter o. the proposition liked the
1-tter so much that he expected
double it; urns. But to his surprise,
the returns were only about a
third as large as those he had
previously secured from his own
simple off hand tale, told In a con
versatu ml way, as he would talk
to the : inu across the counter. The
incident teaches its own lesson to
all who are seeking publicity for
their goods.

Art In time by curing the kidneys.

Hero's one case:
Mrs. O. L. Rynnlng, 54 4 5 South
M St., Tacoma, Wash., says: "Off
and on for eighteen years I suffer
ed from kidney complaint and in
flammation of the bladJer. The
trouble was so bad at tines that I
couldn't keep on my feet. There
were torturing pains in my back and
1 was so lame that I could hardly
stooy or straighten. When I sat
down, 1 couldn't get up vithout a
great effort. I was all run down? I
didn't rest well and a too frequent
action of my kidneys bothered a>e.
I tried many doctors, but their
medicine didn't do mo a.:y good.
At last I fot to 'ising Doan's Kid

the remedy I needed. They helped
me from the first. My kidneys were
strengthened and the torturing
