who wore a yellow or black apparel,
without apparent cause, was not to be

women prefer pink: women who regard
themselves as being unfortunate prefer

Saving Ice.

The amount of ice wasted by house
method of caring for it. is something
fit to fill the heart of the iceman with
joy.
Most people believe that ice has to
melt just so fast, anyhow. and that
whatever is done with it makes no par
ticular difference in its e~vaporatng
qualities.
Therefore they let it 90 to waste and
pay ice bills highly satisfactory to he
ice dealers.
Observe your cake Of ice closely
and YOU will find that it has a grain,
and with a hammer and any sharp in
strument a piece the desired size may
be broken off by breaking with the
grain.
Put into your icebOx a fifty-pound
cake twice each week, wrapping it
first in a blanket. then in newspaper.
taking care to cover 1t closely every
time a piece is taken 0ut.
Carefully save the water that melts
from the ice for summer toilet pur-
poses, as no more luxurious article
could be found for that purpose.

Minneapolis, Aug. s. - The latest
move on the grain rate situation i'll
the Southwestern territory is the re-
duction made by the Great Northern
road Oh its lines running into the
Southwest. The Great Northern has
a line TO Sioux Falls which crosses at
right angles most of the Chicago lines.
The new rates to Chicago nave, or
course, interfered with traffic all along
this line and the road has made a cut
equivalent to that made on the other
lines This means that wheat can be
brought 10 Minneapolis over the Great
Northern at as favorable rates as If
sent 10 Chicago. AS the Great North
ern does not reach much OF the dis
putcd territory. the cut does no have
Ms mucl effect on the situation as 1t
might if more competing points were
reached.

Nicotine stands unrivalled rs the
safest. surest cure for Scab and ticks.
1t is the only remedy that does not in
jure or shrink the sheep, while stimu-
lating wool growth. The reason why
waste tobacco is not universally used
for a sheep dip is the imposSibility or
preparing a bath from it Of uniform
nicotine strength. Another objection
is heavy freight charges on weak to-
bacco extracts or bulk scraps and
stems. At the Skabcura Dip cos
large factory in Chicago, nicotine is
obtained o. uniform strength. guaran-
teed twenty times stronger than any
tobacco extract ever made before.
