"Why should papers in the ter
ritory discuss national politics." is
a question often asked. Not one
of us will have a vote, SO why should
we be forever talking politics? On
first thought, it does look like a
waste of energy, but it is not so.
First, because the people of the
territories, regardless of the fact
that they have no voice in national
affairs, are as deeply interested in
political issues as the people i'll the
states and it is in order for a paper
to discuss any issue in which its
readers are interested. But deep
er reason is found in the fact that
it is the duty of the press to use its
influence in moulding public opin-
ion. The two great parties repre-
sent diamterically opposed,
ideas that 60 to the foundation of
government and it is the duty of
the press to carry OH campaign of
education in the political principles
which it believes are necessary fol

1t will not be long before the peo-
pie Of the territories will have an

victions with the ballot and it is not
out of place to be sowing the seed

SERIOUS ADVICE

One of our religious exchanges
offers the following advice OH the
important subject Of getting out of
bed:
Don't jump up the first thing
your eyes are open. Remember,
that while you sleep the vital organ
are at rest. A sudden spring out
of bed is a shock to these organs,
especially TO the heart, as it starts
to pumping the blood suddenly.
Take your time in getting up.
Yawn and stretch. Wake up slow
ly Give the vital organs chance
to resume their work gradually"
The trouble with this advice is
that it will be difficult to persuade
people to follow it. For example
Don't jump up the first thing
your eyes are open" How many
people will have sufficient self-con
troll TO restrain themselves, especial
ly on a Sunday morning when they
are in a hurry to get up early?

Going Bad.

No man living knows all about ami
mails. or more than very little about
them. Some who are dead thought
they knew. That is the reason they
are dead. Only those who realize
their ignorance and supplement it
with untiring watchfulness last long at
this queer business that I'm in.
Sooner or later most animals of the
cat kind become utterly intractable
and remain so. Going bad" is the pro
fessional term for this. Rarely do
they return to their old. amenable
ways. Henceforth they are of no use
as performers, and are relegated to
the exhibition cages. for any man en-,
tering the cage of lion or tiger that
has gone bad is instantly attacked.
This is one of the terrors of the trade.
Symptoms of the change OF heart are
apparent enough sometimes. particu.
larly in animals which are growing
old. Occasionally. however some

FASHION HINTS.

Peau de cygnes are among the silks

Plain straight lace scarfs of guipure

wide are popular and are to be had in
the lace departments.

handkerchiefs in colors, with lines OF
white forming squares.

Bags, card cases. belts. pocketbooks
and all other sorts of leather things
come in both bright and delicate col

colors remain unrivaled for all-round

ROOT CROPS FOR PIGS.

1t has been demonstrated that seven
or eight pounds of mangels have as
great feeding value as one pound Of
grain. when given to pigs or hogs, and
that sugar beets have even greater
value, SO it is hard to understand why
pig raisers are so careless about
growing root crops for their animals
Not only have the root crops .higL
feeding value, but they do more fol
the good health of the hogs than one
can estimate. In regard to their feed
ing value 1t has been demonstrated
time and again that when mangel Oh
sugar beets, or both, are fed in con
nection with light rations of grains, us
ing middlings instead of bran, porh
of high quality can be produced cheap
er than in any other way, with the
possible exception Of the substitution
OF ensilage for the root crops. If root
crops can be bought at reasonable
prices, better have some for feeding
this fall and winter. and next season
grow your own supply.-Indianapolis

even more artistic were the diamond
leaves worn by Mrs. Ivor Guest, the

of tiara Mrs. George Keppel often
wears a high hair ornament, from the

1t was announced earlier in the sea

With an elaborate costume the short

coat seems to depend upon it's MT ana

Just down the center, and four again
1T the back. These tucks were grad
tally widened out until at the knees
they were opened altogether. over

about four inches long.
With the Louis XIV jacket one
marks the return of large buttons

for the purpose. Accordionpl plated

lace jabots at the throat are a pretty
contrast to the dark fur. and the
jacket must needs be trimmed at
cuffs and collar with lace. as any
other material is too heavy.
