$. DAKOTA PAYS OFF IT'S DEBTS.
Farmers Are Paying on Mortgages at "A
Rapid Rateand Times Are Better.

Sioux Falls, S. D., July 81 Spe-
cial THE people of South Dakota
have, in The last four years, paid off
$50, OO0, 900 of their debts, +" said DR.. ID.
L. Mckinney, one of the best known
loan agents of the State, land they
are now paying off at 4 very rapid
rate. AS things are now going the
people of the State, and especially the
farmers, will soon be we'll out of debt.
The large crops of the last few years,
coupled with close times, have had the
effect of giving the people an appetite
for getting out of debt, and fortunately
has also given them the ability to do
so.
Mark Russell, who represents loan
company which has several million
dollars loaned on farm property in
South Dakota, adds his testimony to
that of DR.. Mckinney. Mr.. Russell's
company stands ready to and is anx-
ious to place from $4,000 to $75 600
yearly on South Dakota farm property,
but the agent complains that he cannot
find takers for one third of the amount
he would like to loan.
"Our company has l 800 loans in
this State on farm lands" said Mr..
Russell, "and we have not had over
fifty foreclosures in seven years. The
company does not own foot of land
in the State and never lost a cent on
loan. ~ Chicago Tribune, July II,
1897.

Points In Salad Making.

Canned or cold cooked left over veg
etables are well utilized in salads, but
arc best mixed with French dressing
and allowed to stand i'll a cold place one
hour before serving, says the principal
of the Boston Cooking school. "Where
several vegetables are used i'll the same
salad they should be marinated sepa-
rately and arranged for serving just be-
fore sending to table. Meat for salads
should be freed from skin and gristle,
cut in small cubes and allowed to stand
mixed with French dressing before com
blnlng with the vegetables Fish should
be faxed or cut i'll cubes. Where salads
are dressed at table, first sprinkle with
salt and pepper, add the oil and lastly
the vinegar. If the vinegar is added be-
fore the oil, the greens will become wet,
and the oil will not cling to them, but
will settle to the bottom of the bowl"

Dining Among the "smart Set

The smart set's'' intolerance of long
boring functions in the way of enter
talnments has effected IL much needed
reform i'll many directions Chief among
these, according to the New York Trib-
une, are the dinners which, from the
long. dreary array of many courses,
with tiresomo waits between, have be-
come delightful entertainments without
more than six or at the most eight
courses i'll all. III fact, the dinner givers
this winter have actually We'd with
each other in reducing their feasts to a
minimum of courses and service.
Itgoes without saying, however, that
short dinners are perfect both as regards
the menu, the service and the decora-
ton. There must be no evidence of
economy shown in these epicurean ban
quets. The contrast to habitual diner
out i'll going from a smart, modern, up
to date dinner to one of the long, con-
ventional entertainments which are
still affected by those who have not vet
caught on" to the latest innovations
and who consider quantity may atone
for quality is very great and of course
greatly to the disadvantage of the latter.
The Same distinction exists in lunch
cons. 1t is happily 10 longer fashion
able to have them too long.

Table Decorations, New Embroideries
and Several Salad MAX
ing = Golden Weddings.

Candles as table decoration still
hold their own. At recent dinner
given by society woman the scheme
for lighting the table was the ordinary
wax candle. twas of q creamy hue The
candlestick was tall and III tints of pink
and white, over which was paper shade
III delicate tones of salmon. These can
dies served as corner decorations and
were charming addition to this taste
full board. To make them more attract
i've each candle rested on small square
mat OF jewel embroidery in blue and
whole.
Among the new embroideries for
spring tableware the fruit scheme is
taking precedence of all others. The de-
sign includes buds, blossoms, leaves and
fruit, oil i'll raised work in their natural
colors. The edge is deeply scalloped,
with figure set in like drawn work in
white silk, i'll different stitches in the
shape of palm leaves stars, crescents
and tho like. This new method is a
great improvement on the simple scallop
formerly used. Many of these fruit
schemes are excellent as corner decora-
lions for centerpieces.
A Japanese lily, planted in glass or
decorative blue bowl, is pretty orna-
mental devicET10r an informal luncheon
This plant grows very fast, has tall
green leaves and is put i'll Il bed of
smooth pebbles, which are immersed in
water, and needs but little care to make
1T charming table adornment at all
times for any function.
To make IL decorative salad for the
table for formal luncheon lettuce and
caulifiower combined are considered SUI
perior i'll way, and particularly so if
served on dark blue and gold china. A
full set for this course is an oval dish of
mazarin blue, with gilt ornamentation
and dozen plates to match. This same
design can be used for fruit or simple
dessert.
Water colors of flowers and fruit
should be framed III simple white bands
of wood or narrow gilt, with mat in
light gray or dark cream to enhance
their colors. Yellow plotting paper
makes capital mat for prints of strong
coloring, but requires the opening to be
evenly cut to make it acceptable, says
