NEW YORK, April 1s-Among the
cabin passengers who arrived from
Europe to-day by the steamship ''La-
Bourgogne,' were fourteen Partisan de
slgners Of ladies' fashionable gowns.
These artist have been engaged by the
cnterprising managers of The New
YORK AND PARIS YOUNG LADIES FASH
ION BAZAAR, to contribute exclusively to
the columns OF that popular magazine.
All of them are we'll known in New
York, for their reputation have preceded
them. Mrs, Astor, the Ventlerbilts,
Mrs Cleveland and Mrs. Marshall O.
Roberts are among the society leaders
who have worn gowns designed by these
artists. During an interview with re-
porter one of thedesigners said:
"Paris still leads the world of fashion
although Eugcnie no longer
sits on the throne. Parisian gowns
have a style about them that can not
be equaled. That, 1 suppose, is the
reason why we have bee. engaged to
come to Americ; to teach the ladies Of
your beautiful country, through the
columns of The New YORK AND PARIS
YOUNG LADIES' FASHION BAZAAR, how
these wodcrful creations of the dress
makers art are constructed. 1t is our
business to design the handsomcst and
most fashionable gowns for tho differ.
ent seasons of the year. These designs
will be printed in colors and will be &C.
companied by such clear instructions
rs to the selection of materials and the
cutting and fitting of the garments that
no woman of sense will have the least
difficulty in making perfect-fitting
gowns herself. 1t is knack, a science,
to fashion gown that will make a very
small and very tleslIy lady appear slim
Not ono designer out of II thousand can
hit upon the true lines unless he makes
it the study Of a lifetime. You ought
to see the May number of our Maga-
zine. We have designs in it that will
take the hearts of the ladies by storm.
They do not get q new dress made up
every day, and I can tell you it is an
importantitem to get the best magazine
and the latest and most exquisite Paris
styles, and have it fashined like the one
that is best suited to their figure"
A nut for Free Trade Farmer to
crack from the Lisbon Star:

from an extended trip to the Atlantic
coast going and returning through Can

his trip he tells the Wahpeton Globe that

than ever that protection is a great ben.

Canada raises the same agricultural
products as the states acrosst the line,
AS i'll all agricultural districts they
raise to sell. The natural markets for
their products, above that necessary for
home consumption, is the United
States. And here is just where the
'robber" tariff steps in and protects the
American farmer. The duty on pota.
toes is csc. per bushel, eggs SC. per doz,
and 30 per cent. on grain and horses.
Now the profit of their business is less
than that of the American farmer to
the amount of this duty. This duty

How q Dakota farmer-particularly a
North Dakota farmer-can be ANYTHING

lncomprehensible. Canada sold us last
year 81 600, 900 worth of barley. They
