Arikara, OF, as il is sometimes written,

tory In an Indian language spoken with
in the territory.
DIR. Washington Matthews, In a per-
sonai letter, asks that the missionaries
add their suggestions for the help of the
legislators, who must settle the matter.
He y "The requirements for q name
are, that it should be Indian; that il
! should belong to the locality; that ID
should not exceed four syllables Qess are
better); that 1t should be sonorous, and
that it should not be too much like some
other state nsme. For instance, Mo
brara is objected to because too much
like Nebraska. and ali names beginning
with Mime because like Minnesota.
Dr.. Matthews' points are good, bnt
they rule out SanSna, which has no
historic basis that we know Of. Nor is
Ponka very appropriate; for within his
toric times they have had little to do
with the territory that will belong to
South Dakota Teton end Qsiaia a.e
good end pertinent in every way.
lsanti ls suggested ss o name for
North Dakota, il it has to take another
name. This name is as pertinent, however,
to the south division as to the north, il
not rather more so.
We propose Isantanka, the Dakota
name for Americans. or, citizens OF the
United States. Literally il e big
knives, or, swords. This name would
not be inappropriate Tor either section.
The citizens OF both sections are charac-
terized by the keen aggressiveness which
makes them worthy TO stand as
representative Americans.
And Tiptah would be O pleasant and
appropriate name for North Dakota. II
is q Dakota word meaning prairie. For
brevity, melody, and fitness il cannot be
surpassed.
SO it seems 10 US that there is this list
to choose from Isantnnka, Oglaia, Teton,
Ilntah and, perhaps, Pembina.

A Living Curiosity.

A printer may have bank and
quoins, and not be worth cent f; have
small caps, with neither wife or child.
Others may run, but be gets along fast
er by setting. He will make fine i'm
pressons without eloquence, use the lye
without offending, and still tell the
truth. Though it is impossible for 9TH
ers to while they set, he can set standing
and do both at the same time may use
furniture, and haye no dwelling may
make and put away pi, yet never see
nor eat pie. Still human being, he
may be a rat at the same time; may
handle shooting-iron, yet not know
aught of cannon, gun or pistol. May
lay his form on Il bed. yet be compelled
to sleep on the floor; may use dagger
without shedding blood, and on the
earth may handle stars. He may be of
rolling disposition, with no desire to
travel. He may be always correcting
his errors, but growing worse every day;
may have embraces, without ever having
the arms of lass thrown round him;
his form may be locked up, and he be
far from Jail, watch, house, or other
places of conline:aent. He may be sur
rounded with dead matter, but dwell
in blissfal ignorance of any disasreeable
effects. His companion is the devil, and
be that presence ever so aggravatlng,
the printer may have an angelic temper
and prove himself a strong Christian
warrior

JESSIE'S PLOT.

MAY l enter?' asked clear sweet
voice at the door of Jessie Vane's room.
Tie brown head was lifted instantly,
the pile of letters which had claimed
Jessie attention was pushed back on
the table, and a laughing light Of
welcome beamed in the girls dark
eyes.
Come, Janet she called merri|y,
Always welcome, cous A nine, bat
doubly welcome now for | have letters
here which | think | will ask you to
help me to answer
The door had been pushed wide open
at the first word, and while she had
been speaking far, bright, dainty
creature had crossed to her side.
Such sweet, winsome face, such
changing, flower fresh face, with It's sau-
cy red lips, and its starry gray eyes,
and its ever varying expression.
Jessie, to whom it was very dear,
looked at it with loving, laughing eyes,
which laughed the more when they
read The petulance and mutiny upon
it.
He who runs may read, she said
gally. Something has gone wrong.
Janet Graves tossed card into her
cousins lap, and flung herself into a
chair.
Yes she said in that fresh, clear
voice, which neither anger nor petu'ance
could render le than musical, "some-
thing has gone wrong, and unless you
and | find a way to turn the tables on
my clever aunt, our summer here will
be spoiled. Read the name on that
card and perhaps you will underst md.
Jessie lifted the Innocent looking
card, aud read the name upon it; but
did not seem to comprehend.
'Eoval Sandrord :? she said Rlusing)y
The name is pretty, but | never heard
it before. Who is he, dear :? and why
should call from him alarm you for
your season.
I'll tell you! burst ont Janet hur.
riedly. 4 always hate to even think OF
h,m'-with a spiteful little push to the
card-'but now I'll have to, and meet
him, too, aud be civil to him, which
will be abominably hard. 1t is all a
family romance, but romantic as it
sounds it has become Il nightmare to
me. Ny mother and Royal Sandiord s
father were lovers. Something parted
them and he marriel somebody else
Mamma, did so, too; but neither Of them
forgot, and I don't think they We're very
happy
She sighed softly, and leaning toward
her cousin, laid her young head against
jessie dark coils Of halr.
1T was sad-sad,' she SAID after a
pause But when he was dying, he
sent for mamma, who was then Wld-
ow, and babe her bring me with her. |

$flttt Qo*trp,
THE WAY TO WOO.

Don't be in too great hurry;
Hurries never pay.
Take your time; a wary general
Always feels his way.
Do not pull your line too quickly;
Rather give it play.
Take her sometimes to concert;
Sometimes to ball;
Sometimes spend a pleasant evening;
Sometimes only call;
Sometimes twill be far the wiscst
Not to go at all
Do not meet your would-be rivals
With jealous frown,
Show her that you don't care tuppcncc
For man in town;
Praise her other beaux; then surely
She will run them down.
Send her presents-nOt too costly;
Trihcs light as air;
Dainty fruits to please her palate;
Flowers for her hair
Something that will show you chose it
Fairest for the fair.
Vex her sometimcs-constan sunshine
Is so dreadful tame
Just a little dash of water
Brightens up Il flame.
Love that doesn't tizz and spluttcr
Isn't worth the name.
Then at last, some quiet evening
Moonlight nights are stale
Drop INTO her cosy parlor,
Looking rather pale,
Strive to hide your woe unuttcrcd,
But be sure to fail.
Mention first some vague intention
Ola journey West;
Darkly hint Of secret sorrow,
That forbids you rest
Whisper that It's hard to lcaye her
But perhaps It's best.
Then If she should blush and trcmbic
With shy surprise
If there is no roguisli sparkle
Twnkling IN her eyes
Then-thcn tell the old, old story
Told meath Edcn's skies.
