General Passenger Agent Fee of
the Northern Pacific, predicts that
the tide of western immigration will
be larger in the spring of 1890 than
that of any year past. March is the
month for the most travel westward.
The general opinion is that all of this
western immigration is going to
Washington or Oregon. Mr.. Groat,
commissioner of immigration of the
road, says that an average OF go out
of every 200 tickets are sold for Mon
tana points. and that quite a few are
sold for North Dakota points. More
people are getting off in Dakota than
the public knows of. There are be
sides many letters of inquiry sent

have gone to the coast, asking for in
formation about North Dakota wheat
and grazing lands, and expressing a
desire to get hold of good cleared
farm. North Dakota's turn is COM

THE GIGGLING GIRI.
Why She IL Looked Upon ns In-
beetle by the Average Mortal.


Detroit Free Press
From boys i'm their boobyhooL.
aud girls in their gigglehood, may
the fa,es protect US. a laugh is u
laugh the world over. IL is a
spasmodic, soul.sneeze, and as
contagious rs measles. Whether
II is the laugh of joyous youth or
cackling age il delights or amuscs.
But giggle is worse than the par
ablcd thorns under pot. /, is the
echo Of emptiness. As rule men
do not g,ggle. They would be
worse than a St. Bartholomew
massacre if they did. 1t is the
American girl who gigglcs, the
ubiquitous American girl who
dcfics all known laws, goes where
she will, does what she plcases and
is a law unto herself. or course
she is irresistible and loving, and
some day makes grand and good
woman. She would not be the
American girl otherwise. But
she giggles and protests, protests
and gigglcs. Ifshc were the trained
ed product of a young ladies' sem
mary, we should say her giggles
were hystcria Of the Imagination.
But she Is not trnincd product
Of any school. She was pcttcd
and spoiled child; she is petted
and spoiled young woman. She
giggles from habit. No one has
ever undertaken to suppress her, so
she goes on giggling. Here is a
fair sample of the conversation Of
a group Of American girls:
"Oh, girls, you just ought to have
been ut Mrs. Stevens party.
George Smith and Harry Jones
were there, and--oh, tc-he-hc.'
"Oh, tc hc-te. he.hc oh, hc-hc-
he"
II wore my pink silk and
spilled coffee on the front breadth
tie he"
"Te. he. hc-tc he hc-how careless
-te he. he he he"
Nellie Brown could't go be.
cause she is wearing black for her
"Oh tc. hc.hc-how sad 'pon
Nellie tc.he--really.--tc- he"
"Did you hear Kate White was
engaged to John Simpkrnsi You
know girls it is leap year-te. he
her
"Yes--tc- hc-te. he -he-so funny
oh-te- he he--he- e-he-h he"
What do you chew, Susici
Tutti frutti or sprucef l like rub
Der gum bcst--tc hc.'
so do /; te-hc -hc-he--te he"
Perhaps this is the language
that was invented to conceal
thought. Giils, don't gigglc
Throw back your heads, expand
your pretty ihroats and laugh till
the welkin rings. 1t will DO you
good and make all who hear you
happy.
Laugh. and the world will laugh
with you"
Giggle, and it won't give you
credit for the sense you have.
