AbOnt Water Power.

According to the views OF
mechanical experts, the power Of
the future is that derived from
falling water. For cheapness
and effectiveness, with up-to-date
electrical means of transmission,
no other power approaches it.
The factory and the mill no
longer overland the stream
where the power is generated.
Next to water power is the power
developed by the rotary steam
engine from petroleum. "A liquid
fuel for generating physical and
and mental power in man, Gold
EN- Grain Belt beer, is ,ln.
exeelled, a pure, delicious drink.

Plans Accepted.

Plans for the Beltrami county
court house as furnished by
Architects Kenney 8 Detweiler
of Austin, were accepted by the
county commissioners. These
men are considered among the
very best architects in the state,
and are certainly among the most
successful. They have furnished
plans for more county court
houses than any one else. Their
plans for our court house are
\ most imposing and beautiful, and
when the structure is completed
everyone will be convinced it was
no mistake to accept Mr.. Ken
ney's plans.

Arioch, 'the Lion King" of Assyria,
was so called not only on account of
his military achievements, but be-
cause his shock of curly hair and

of the appearance of the king of

n ELEGANT DRAWN

A n ELEGANT drawing-room on a
~ hot summers afternoon. The
lowered sun-b!inds cast a becoming
shade on a girl, in an elegant tea
gown, who sits, idly working, on a
sofa. A thin, plain, dark young man,
in very perfectly -ftting coat, lounges
IN an armchair, and gazes at her with
rather disconnected expression.
Young Man Grritably)-Well, 1 must
say think it was rather odd of you to
rush off and stay with strangers di-
rectly we were engaged.
Girl (coolly)-Don't you think we
shall have enough of one another aft
er we're married?
He (hufily)-O, daresay. CA pause
And, pray, what did you do all day?
She-I had splendid SPORT There
was jolly party, and it was a lovely
river.
He (dryly)-I'll be bound you were
amusing yourself with some unlucky
creature!
She Qaying down her work)-Now,
look here, Harry! If you're going on
in that silly way again
He Gnterrupting tartly)-I going on,
indeed! Gle gets up and walks to the
window, turning his back on herr.
She (hotly)-Upon my word I'll
(She stops suddenly. a mischievous
idea seems to come into her head. She
shakes her fist al him behind his back,
then takes up her work again quietly).
Well, if you want o KNOW was anus
ing myself.
He (turning)-If 1 want to know!
She (quietly)-There was one in par
ticular-
He Cnterrupting)-One in particu-
lar? What, was there more than one,
then?
She (airily)-o, dear, yes, Ihad two
on together once! You'll say it's i'm
possible
He Gnterrupting, sarcastically)-O,
no; not with you!
She Continuing serenely)-I grant
you it's rare!
He with short laugh -There's
some comfort in that!
She-I played them both for a good
while. But one got off at last.
He with open-mouthed astonish-
ment)-'Pon my soul, Mabel, you're
