ONE of the worst things about the
average American is that he will
sell anything he owns if he can only
get his price. This disposition on
his part tends to make him always
unsettled. When man has good
farm, good home, good neighbors
and good income, where can he
possibly go to better his condition
In fact, where could he go where he
would not be worse off? Lots of
men find this truth out at an ex-
pense of a lot of money and peace of
mind. The sensible thing to
do in nine cases out of ten is to
settle down contented, so far as
ever expecting to find a home where
everything is all right, and carefully
study how to make the old farm
more productive, their home more
pleasant and their lives of more use
to their families and to the world

THE RIGHT Al rITUDE.
Word Of Warning About Being Con-
scious Of Ones Dress and About
Bad Habits Of Posture.

To 40 women who have q 'pose." !"
there Is just one who has "poise. To
10 women who walk with a locomotor
ataxia jerk Of the hips and snobbish
tilt of the nose there is just one who
glides along as If walking were per-
fectly natural and no trouble to her.
70 40 women who wear their clothes
as though they were photographers
models on parade there is just one
whose clothes seem part of her.
II a woman could only purchase her
gowns and hats, put them on and then
forget them, she would be doubly
charming. The average woman carries
her frock about in her mind as we'll
as on her back every moment. If it
is pretty and well-ftting she plumes
herself, gives her walk an extra hitch
and her head more unnatural tilt
II the frock doesn't suit her she is
mlserably conscious of it; she keeps
jerking at it here and pulling at it
there, forgetting that the one thing
which can make bad frock worth
looking at is the good carriage and un-
conscious expression Of the wearer.
OF course we cannot expect every
woman to have mental poise. We
aren't all born with it and very few
of us can cultivate it. The best some
OF us can do is to simulate it by the
adoption of the tilted chin and the
naughty, Indifferent Gibson express
sion. Yet these things do not deceive
anybody who is worth deceiving.
Physical poise every woman can at
tain BY physical poise l mean the
ability to walk gracefully and uncon-
sciously, to glide up and down stairs,
to sink instead OF to bounce into a
chair, to use her hands as though they
were part Of her and not merely at
tachments at the ends Of her arms.
Tho first thing to learn in the acqui-
sttion Of poise is to stand squarely
upon the balls of your feet, not upon
the toes, nor the heels: In high French
heeied shoes this is next to impossible,
yet 1t Is by no means necessary to
wear nat, common sense heels in or
der to accomplish it. If women could
learn to strike happy medium in any
thing they would be able to select pref
ty shoes that, at the same time, would
allow them to walk like human beings
instead Of like dancing dolls. II you
could draw line through the body
OF the well-poised woman it would be-
gin at the balls Of her feet, pass
through the tips of hips and shoul-
ders, and end at the crown of her
head.

gether with long. thin, sharp nails.
The upper ends must be plugged with
wood, and little brass balls (similar
to those used for finishing the ends of

on.
The pot with the fern may then be
suspended from the center of the cross
bar by means of three strands of brass
wire or fancy cord, but the latter will
not look so pretty, as the gold color of
the brass wire and the green leaves Of
the fern go well together, and are eff
fective.

Wrinkled Throat.

The following course of treatment
will work wonders it is said, with a
wrinkled throat and fabby chin, if per-
sisted in faithfully: First, wash the
chin and throat in hot water. Moisten
the finger tips with good cold cream,
and, starting with the left hand under
the right ear, draw it briskly but firm
ly from ear to chin. Then take the
right hand and repeat the movement
from the left side. The pressure from
chin to ear should be light, but under
the chin the pressure should be firm.
Ten minutes of this exercise should be
followed by q douche Of cold water, to
which has been added little astrin-
gent fluid, either toilet water or tine
ture Of benzoin.

AT the recent drainage conven-
tion which was held at Crookston it
was suggested that the state sell
the three per cent Virginia bonds
which it now holds and loan the
proceeds to counties for drainage
purposes. Said bonds it was assert
ed, can now be sold at consider
able advance of the original pur-
chas price, netting the state neat
profit on the investment. State
treasurer Block also recommended to
the state investment board, that the
bonds be sold and the proceeds
used for the purpose mentioned.
The investement board, however,
saw fit to turn down the recommen-
dation of the state trearurer, assign
ing as a reason that it was safer to
have part Of the school fund invest
ed outside the state. There are also
other reasons limited at, of a political
nature, that induced the investment
board to take the action it did. If
this be so, and any other considera-
tion than the welfare of the state
actuated the members Of said board
in forming their decision, then they
are unfit to hold the position OF
trust which they do.
We would like to know what bet
ter or safer investment of state
funds can be made than in loaning
same for the purpose OF reclaiming
and making more valuable the lands
within the state? No betterxsecur-
ity can be found anywhere than
Minnesota lands. Why not prefer
them as security to the run out
plantations and swampy wastes OF
the 'Old Dominion?" In loaning the
money for internal improvements at
home, we develop the resources Of
our own state, enchance the value
of our own lands, and make them
more desirable for occupation and
cultivation by the settler. The
taxable property of the state will be
increased. Furthermore the states
own lands will be improved by
systematic drainage and sell fol-
more money to the great advantage
Of the school fund and the cause O.
education in the state. The SHEA1
believes that Mr.. Blocks recon-
mendation was right, and the people
of the state, we think, will say so
even if they have to make Mr.
Block governor in order to make
their sentiments known.
