WHAT A COMPLIMENT CAN DO.
One Approving Word Made Her For
 g5t Her Troubles.

"One of the most glaring faults of our age" said the doctor of divinity. as he stirred his Mocha and Java, lis the absence of spirituality"
 Yes" agreed the professor. helping himself to lamb chops and mullins, people are growing more and more ma terial in their views of lifa."
 Tt is not only spirituality, but inijel- lectuaEty that is on the Wane." said the judge, eyeing appreciativeE the Jcrsey cream that his hostess was pouring over a saucer of strawberries. Look, for instance, at the thousands of people who never read anything but the newspapers, who are really dead from a mental standpoint"
 The doctor and the professor em- phaticalIy fndorsed the noble sentiments of the judge, and the symposium pur- sued it's course of the breakfast. It was delicious breakfast Ito eat and a charming one to look at. A crystal vase in the middle of th- table held d stalk of white lillies: their petals matched the snowy tablecloth and their gold stamenS the embroidery on the canterpicce. There was pretty array of delicate china and solid sil- yer. The red of the strawberries and tomatoes and the brown of the chops, toast and mullins made a nice color scheme A bunch of scarlet poppies and feathery ferns looked into the mir TOT of the sidGboard and the morning wind came in through the folds OF fresh. white curtains. l. was fitting place for the discussion of intell5 5ctu- ality and spirituality.
 At the foot of the table sat d small. tired looking woman who took no part in the symposium. Calmly and indus triously she poured coffee and sugared strawberries. fuitively watching the childrens table manners and her guests needs. No one would have dreamed that she had a soul above mullins: but h5r brain kept up run ming commentary on the remarks of the judge, the doctor and the professor
 'Intell5 ctuality and spirituality, in deed. You look intellectual and spir- itual. don't you? Maybe you are; and if you men ever get so intellectual and spiritual that you don't have to eat then ther='n b. some chance for women to cultivate their intell=cts and spirits Not intellectual to read the neWspa- pers?

 Madam" said the doctor in his most impressive tone.
 The little woman turned to him with q deferential manner.
 Madam. this is the best breakfast have eaten for many a day.
 And thsn, if you will believe it, al the bitterness went out of that Wom- ans heart in an instant and sht frightened up as if the doctor had said Madam, you have written the fines novel in the ntury.
 Such is the power of mans apprec ation. and of such weak stuff are Wom en made.

AN OLD ASIATIC OCEAN.
Inland Seas tl.at Are Drying Up Are
 R mnants of It.

A curious discovery made by Dr. Sven Hedin, the intrepid Swedish eX- plorer, is recorded in telegram from St. Petersburg. During his adv ntu- rOus journeys in eastern Turkestan, Thibet and Mongolia, ended some two years ago. he visited the great she | of water called Lob Nor. This he found to differ materially from the maps and the descriptions of previous observ rs, and he has now examined it second time. Situated rather more than 2O0O feeJ above the s-a level. it's waters are fed by the river Tarim, but emptied only by evaporation, for no stream is sues from it. Thus they should be salt but Dr. Sven Hedin found them to be fresh. From this he concluded that the lake could not have been long in exis- tence.
 The impossibility of reconciling the observations of his predecessors with what he had himself seen also suggest td that Lob Nor was net a permanent sheet of water. like the Dead sea or lake Balkhash, but was constantly shifting its position, the lake bed of one time being filled up with desert sand, and forming again in new places. The correctn ss of his original inference has now been placed beyond doubt.
 The lake known to earlier observers has now disappeared and its bed is strewn with shells and other organ isms which had lived in its waters But system of new lakes had been formed around the old basin, which pr. Sven Hedin has explored and map ped. Tn Tarim basin is a barren and dry land-a region of travelling waves of desert sand. All this tract has been crying up, perhaps continuously. even in historic times. The same thing fs true of western as well as of eastern Turkestan. Lake Balkhash is disap- bearing with comparative rapdity. According to he Russian geographers it's area has bsyn greatly reduced dur ing the present century, and those who dwell on it's shores assert that its lev el is lowered at the rate of a foot in every five years. But the same thing is true of the Syr Daria and the Anu

A WORD OF ADVICE.

Don't believe all you hear.
 Some people are mistaken in what they say
 For instance, racing man told us that dealer in hi- cycles in this town told his father that Iver Johnson bicycles rode hard.
 Two young men rode to our store one Saturday evy ming to look around. These same two young men saw what they considered the prettiest and strongest wheel they ever saw. Mind you, they were not out shopping; they were ac- quainted with Javins and they just wanted to make q call. Our salesman ! invited them to try the new wheeh The only comment they had was that it ran as well as it looked. These two young men work at McNeils. One rides a Barnes. the other a Cleveland. They have ridden them about one year, and if their whs els will last few days more it's all they ask. Because they ordered two Iyer Johnson racers with 9S gear.
 Who of these three were in a posi- i ton to know. the one that heard and l so. or the TWO that tried the wheel be i fore they bought? A new firm, you know. catches it on all sides. Some , dealers are friendly; the most of them | are not. It is very easy to prove what ! We claim if you give LIS chance. The racing man referred to gave us d 1 chance and he will ride an Ivcr John i son in the Bentc-JaVins race. Now we don't accuse all the bicycle 1 dealers of raising d howl about our | goods being old auction stock or such 1 like. but some of them did until they | found out they could not make it stick; | tn II they tried other means of keeping people off our wheels and from buying ! our goods. It's a broad claim, but We | will back it up, that we have sod more ! new bicycles in the past thirty days than any other firm in the city. and perhaps, twice as many. We are a new firm. but We have had experience in buying bicycles in New York before.

MAKING TWINE.
First Product of the Irvine Factory
Finished and Ready for Balling and
Shipment.
Aptitude of the Prisoners Who Have
Been Broken in at the Plant
Since Starting. .

The first Irvine has been made at
the state penitentiary plant. The first
of the product was spun the middle of
the week and a hundred or more bob
bins were filled ready for balling. The
plant is now running with a force of
about thirty prisoners. Eight were
broken in to various parts of the work
yesterday n four more will be added
today. The men show remarkable
aptitude for the work. The first ma
chimes used in the preparation of the
fibre, the breakers are now in charge
OF the first four men who were broken
in last week. At first it was neces-
sary for Superintendent Stiles to take
charge Of the machines. but the pris-
oners are now familiar with their
workings and manage the machines
well.
AS new men are broken in the pro-
duct of the plant will increase and the
amount of the Irvine turned out great
er. The work at the beginning is
necessarily slow, as men and machines
both have to be broken in to the work.
Editor Winship Of the Grand Forks
Herald made a visit to the plant yes
terday in company with several resi-
dents Of the city and brought back
with him a piece OIL the finished Irvine
as a souvenir. He was surprised at
the magnitude of the institution and
the general excellence Of the plant,
and says the people of the state gen
orally have no proper idea of the mag
nitude of the enterprise.
superintendent Stiles says he will
need about ~seventy-five prisoners in
the operation of the plant and hopes
to have them all broken in and at
work in the shortest possible time,
that the plant may be run to it's capac-
ity if desired.

NORTH dakota BARLEY.


North Dakota land and products are
being advertised extensively through
the east. In a recent issue of the
Grand Rapids, Mich, Evening Press
appears the following:
In the summer of 1884, Capt. E. L.
Craw of this city sold to Samuel K.
hester, the millionaire m%alsterer of
Geneva, N. Y, what was then known
as the Kindred farm, comprising 5000
acres of land, 1000 acres of which
We're in cultivation, located near Val
ley City, N. D.
During the last two years he has
disposed of $500 acres improved scat
tering lands at from $50 to Sz7 so per
acre, realizing the handsome sum of
over 100000, and still holds $500
acres of improved land, comprising
the original farm, which will readily
command with buildings, stock and
equipments a quarter of a million dol
lars. The price paid for the whole in
1884 vas only $15O,CuO, and he has
since produced from the farm from
$4,000 to $4,000 bushels of barley and
other grains yearly.
MI. hester was the first malsterer in
the United States to discover the supe-
rior merits of Dakota barley for malt
ing purposes over barley grown in the
eastern states or Canada, and first tc

GO WEST OF ThE RIVER.

Another train of immigrants have
gone from the vicinity of Tyndall, S.
D., to New Salem and Hebron, west
of the Missouri river where they will
join a settlement of their friends.
These are mostly descendants of Ger
mans who settled in Russia about a
hundred years ago and who some %
years ago left the mother country be-
cause of compulsory naturalization
laws and army drafts. They have been
in South Dakota since and with their
eighteen cars of property represented
considerable wealth. Each car con-
tanned ten head Of stock beside the
household goods, and the wealth of the

will hardly be three years before she

The increased acreage Of wheat in the
county will of itself force the estab-

flax will eventually bring a fibre mill.
Later, straw board and wrapping paper
will be manufactured here and if all

POsTOFFICE ROBBERY.

Sometimes during Thursday night
the Sheldon postoftice was entered-it
is believed through the front door
which was locked on the robbers de-
parture and left as before. The safe
combination a worked and $500 in
cash taken. Thirty cents in pennies
were left and also a check of Banker
Ed. Pierce not taken. The office
showed no signs of disturbance Fri
day morning and Miss Maggie Doran,
the postmistress, found everything as
usual on entering the postotiice to open
up-except that the $500 in currency
had disappeared. No clue has been
discovered and the only conclusion az
rived at is the robbers had a key to
the big front door and also the safe
combination.
