Beautify the Garden.
From the Norfolk yirglnian-Pilot.

From the Norfolk yirgInian- Pilot
1t is by no means unusuaI-rather it is the
rule-in driving through the country to
see houses that show all indications that
the owners are prosperous. but there is no.
where visible any effort to make their sur
roundings beautiful. The lawns are I'M
kempt and given over to whatever yegeta-
ton happens to grow upon them, and not
so much as rose bush is anywhere visible
about the grounds And yet, with no great
effort and expense, flowers could be grown
and the grounds made beautiful and a new
element OF pleasure added to the too often
meagre and crude home life Nothing is
more needed In this country than propa-
ganda to develop a love Of the beautiful,
and nothing would do more to enrich Amert-
can home life and allay that irritation of
the nerves that wears Americans out before
their day. If the United States could be
transformed into a country Of good high
ways, neat homes and towering lawns what
a contamination it would be! And surely
the country is old enough now that material
well-being should cease to be the sole con-
sideration in life and the development of an
esthetic sense should command some atten-
ton.

Waiting in South Dakota.
From the Belle Fourcbe Bee.

From the Belle Fourcbe Bee.
The little informal dancing parties given
in the Gaiety from time to time are becom-
ing immensely popular The reason, possi-
bly,, Is the innovations introduced by some
of the boys. Dave Broomfield has declared
that Sitting OUT waltz Is now more fash
ionable than dancing, the only difference
being you sit instead of dance The mans
right arm is around the girls waist while
his left hand holds her right. Her left
hand is placed upon his shoulder, while her
head rests lovingly on his manly '.buzzum."
and all they have to do is to sit and listen
to the music Now, that Is something like
it. We have always regarded 1t nuisance
to have to gallop mile or two in order to
get good hug. A room full of people, sit
ting around on Sofas hugging to music, is
more gratifying. This will give the old
rheumatic brethren another chance to waltz
Most men waltz. not for the dance, but for
the position, and while a man may lose
his appetite for dancing. he has got to get
mighty old before he loses his appetite for
hugging pretty girl. Belle Fourche is al
ways up to date. and this new dance L.
bound to be popular here, for we have not
found a man who is not willing to blow In
dollar on the deal. Yet many people
wonder why we don't waltz.

Many men have thes seNgraphing habit,

Domestic Economy.
From the Chicago Tribune.


The domestic establishment appears to
be In a ferment. All classes and coalitions
of persons seem to be stirring it up by
Offering suggestions, some for its improve
ment, some for it's delimitation, and others
for its abolition. Societies are organized
for the encouragement Of widows and for
the increase of spinsters. One club dis
cusses what shall be done with the girls,
another what shall be done with the boys.
Young maidens gravely instruct their eld-
ers how to take care of infants, and child
less persons have infallible systems for
bringing up children. Legislatures are con-
sidering schemes for the taxation Of bach
elors Young women in some places are
banding themselves together for the pur-
pose OF Stumbling the young men and de-
clining their Invitations. Unmarried wo-
men In one place have formed an asso-
citation for the promotion. OF man fndiffer-
ence" and ito assist young women and
those older in years to. withstand tempta-
tions to enter the marriage state" Wo-
men In symposiums are informing the pub
lie why they have or have not married,
whether they would marry IL they had a
chance, and what they would expect from
the weak and unfortunate partner II they
did marry. Out Of all this ferment some
thing ought to come for the Improvement
Of the domestic economy.

The Captain of the Battle Ship.

Lieut.. Commander Gleaves In the Worlds Work
Over the vast establishment rules the CAP
tain ia supreme and isolated authority. All
his accomplishments must be those Of the
seamen. for he directs the movements Of the
ship In all evolutions, and his decision upon
all professional points is final. His respon-
sibllity at all times is grave and exacting
In time of war it will strain the stoutest
nerves: in the hour of battle 1t Is nothing
short OF appalling, when he stands alone in
his coming tower, having control of all
the tremendous forces lying latent in his
ship only to be released at the proper mo-
ment by a touch of his hand He Is the
guiding spirit Of an enormous projectiIe of
5000 tons that rushes through the water
at speed. 1t may be, Of fifteen knots and
he knows that the slightest mistake of his
head or heart may mean a national dis
aster.
But besides being the naval and military
chief of the establishment, he is LAWYER

who holds court every morning investi-
gates reports of misdemeanors and as
signs punishment to the guilty. The de-
linquents are brought to the "mast'-the
quarterdeck-with their accusers. Both
sides are heard and swift Judgment usua,-
ly follows. In this capacity 1t will be noted
that the captain Is court judge and jury

DOG BLANKETS.
Made in Great Variety and Great Num-
bers Sold-Dog Whips and Leads.

From the New York Sun.
MANY dog blankets sold?" said a man
who deals in such things. We'll, l should
say so. millions of EN-. iguratively speak
ing, thousands literally. There's tidy dog
blanket right there, made of felt. And
there are more dog blankets of felt sold
than any other kind. They come in all
sorts Of colors-black. red. blue, yellow. tan,
green and in every conceivable shade Of
color. and all neatly trimmed with leather
How much? That depends on the size. The
smallest size sell for 81 and from that they
go up, a little more for each added inch.

ate price.
Then there are velvet dog blankets, lined
with satin, these blankets being made In

mings. What's that handkerchief pocket

overcoat pocket Of some small pet dog.
Cost Of the velvet dog blankets? Eight to
twelve dollars.
Then there are dog blankets made of
beaver cloth and Of fancy stuffs Of one sort
and another. more less OF these blan-
kets being very probably home made. And
then you come to dog blankets much more
expensive-dog blankets made of fur not
kept in stock but made to order-the cost
depending again on the size of the dog. And
II the dog is big and the furs used costly in
character the cost might run well into
three figures A fine dog blanket Of seal
skin lined with fine material might cost
from $50 to 500. or considerably more than
that. For such q blanket the dog would be
measured and pattern made for 1t, and
the dog would be brought in to have the
blanket tried on and fitted. just as though
it were human being"
