it looks too much like seeking news

EPISODE.


Heart with Loves flag half mast high.
Faithless Hope his coiors bore.
Folly opened wide the door.
And he stopped little space
Ere he turned away his face.
Now thou shalt alike repent
That he entered, that he went.
Grateful was the radiant dawn
Master of the Subtlest art,
Hope has gladdened soul and heart.
Folly more than Truth was wise
While she dwelt in Paradise.
Better far my flag half mast
Than that Love had never passed.
Ye society editor has returned from
her three weeks vacation, spent at the
Devils Lake Chautauqua. We had a
good time boating, bathing. attending
the splendid programs furnished by
the Chautauqua association in the big
auditorium this year, greeting old
friends from various parts of the state,
and incidentally communing little
with mother nature in the shape of
mosquitoes, ants, spiders and others
of the crawling. creeping and flying
variety. They all greeted US warmly,
especially the mosquitoes. in fact, they
marked their gladness at our being
there by an effusion that at times had
to be shaken off in polite way.
For a general good time, where you
can be either entertained or not en-
tertained, as you wish, We recommend
to the people of North Dakota the
ChautauQua for few weeks outing.
The bathing cannot be equalled closer
than the sea and the air is exhilerat-
ing. And as We say. there is plenty
of amusement to be sought or left
alone, as one chooses.
We returned feeling much benefited
by the trip. Benefited physically by
the bracing air, bathing, etc., mentally
by the programs given from day to
day, and socially by the people we
met. Some of the best people in the
state and, in fact, from other states as
we'll. gather there each year. You are
just as likely to meet the wealthy rail-
road magnate. the United States SEN
ator, or the wealthy farmer kings of
North Dakota on the Chautauqua
grounds as you are to meet the COM
mon herd; in fact, we thought the
common herd were sadly lacking, and
met more of the first varieties than the
latter.
We return with renewed zeal for our
work and ask the hearty cooperation
Of the ladies to make the society
columns of the Grand Forks Evening
Times unequalled in the state, in fact,
in the west, because we have the So
ciety to make it so, and with the help
of the ladies will use our own greatest
efforts in that direction.
The society columns of the daily
newspaper can speak just as loudly as
any other in the paper of the prosper
ity and progress of town. The busi-
ness men of town give their hearty
cooperation generally to the news

Saving Table Linen.

The refining and stimulating influ-
ence of clean table linen is a matter
not to be ignored or set aside by the
mother of family. But the advent
of the fruit and berry season makes
the washing of table linen a heavy
burden to the woman who must econ
omtze, or, perhaps. do her own wash
ing.
To reduce the handling of large
table cloths during the heat and sui
triness of summer, try the following
suggestion: When you put on clean
table cloth spread over 1t, at each
persons place, large clean napkin
or tray cloth. Then. it one member of
the family is careless or meets with
an accident. the soiled piece can be
replaced by a clean one, and the dainti.
ness and attractiveness of the table
is preserved. Thus, instead of put
ting on napkins to cover up spots, use
them to protect the table top and save
washing. An entire change of the
top pieces gives the grateful effect of
fresh linen. yet the washing and IRON
Ing OF those six or eight napkins are
nothing to the strain of doing up"
large table cloths in dog days.
Once when in the country where
there was absolutely no help to be
mad on any terms most immaculate
housekeeper, who was too much of an
invalid to wash and iron large table
cloths. evolved this method of keeping
her table up to standard. It ia safe
to say that not one of her guests ever
suspected the clever ruse, for rarely
did meal pass that some apprecia-
tive soul did not say, "Mrs. -, your
deliciously fresh table linen makes
me hungry every time I enter your
dining ROOM" Mrs. - was 40
pleased, in fact. with results that by
adding one or two more large cloths
to her four or five she found It posi-
BILE to go through the whole season
without washing and ironing large
cloth. The soiled ones were placed in
q tub and boiling water poured over
them to take out fruit stains. When
cold the water was poured OF by a
man of the family, the tub was taken
to the clothes yard. and the clothes
were spread out unwrung on the
grass. A pail Of cold soap suds was
plentifully sprinkled over them, and
they were left out in the dew and
through hot sunny day. BY that
time they were dry and sweet, and
clean enough to take no harm by be-
Ing folded away until the family re-
turned to the city, where the steam
laundry did the rest"

THE SERVANT PROBLEM
This Time It Is Maintained That the
Use Of the Family Sitting Room
Will Solve II.

Many plans for the relief, "eleva-
ton" and entertainment of the hired
girl have been tried, especially by
thoughtful housewives in Chicago and
its suburbs, but has any plan sue
ceeded? The hired girl is mistress of
the situation. and she knows it. Prob
ably she resents being patronized and
helped" How would the people up
stairs like to be visited, instructed and
uplifted by the people in the basement?
So we cannot believe that Miss Eliza
beth NJ. Rhodes of New York city, sec
rotary of the International Research
committee, has reached the heart of
the subject by her kindly suggestion
that the hired girl ought to have the
use of the sitting room at least once
a week." We doubt If the use of the
sitting room once a week would ap-
peal to the hired girl. She wants to
be let alone. to follow her own bent.
If she likes to change, can she be
blamed for guarding herself against
monotony? She has her opinions
strong ones, usually. What with her
wages, and her board and lodging in
cluded, she is really more independ-
ent and better of that most of her
employers. And when she wants a
sitting room, she wants one of her
own, not the use of yours.-Eyery

The first plea for union labor that
was ever made before a national con-

her hearers to aid the working girl
by buying those goods only which are
manufactured under good working
conditions.

BUSINESS IN PARAGUAY.
Custom House Receipts Nearly Double
Field for Foreign Exporters.


The South American republic of
Paraguay, if the statements of its
president, in his annual message are
to be credited, is advancing very ia
vorably from business point of view.
The Banco Paraguay has been found
ed, in connection with the French
bank of the River Plate, thus forming
one more bond of union with the Ar
gentine Republic. The capital indus
trial company in Paraguay, has been in
creased from 100000 to 100000 A
number Of new industrial corporations
have been organized, and an effort
Is being made to arrest the abrupt
fluctuations in the quotations of gold,
which are SO prejudicial to commercial
transactions, and to fix a rate, SO that
the company may return to the pre-
dominance of sound money, or, at least,
approximate somewhat closely to it.
To improve the educational methods
of Paraguay ten persons are to be
sent to Europe and the United States
to study mechanical engineering and
auxiliary sciences. In Asuncion cleo
trio lighting is soon to be introduced,
and this will offer an opportunity for
American electric companies to bid
for contracts which promise to very
profitable. The revenue from the Gus
tom houses Of the republic almost
doubled last year, amounting to
$2.246,797, against $1,507, 1O7 in 1904.
This indicates an increase in imports
which Is promising for exporters of
other countries who are seeking enw
fields Of exploitation. OF course, the
foreign trade Of Paraguay will never
be great, but its Inhabitants require
many things which they can obtain
only from foreign lands, and their con-
tribution to the commercial activity
OF the globe is not to be despised.

Of Interest to Women

Heat little of 1t and add It boiling
not to the Drowned almonds. After
mixing 1t thoroughly, stir 1t into the
rest OF the cream. Let It stand where
1t soon will become cold. In the mean
time prepare custard with the yolks
OF eight new eggs, a quart of milk and
scant two cups OF sugar. Stir It
continually to prevent 1t from curdling.
When 1t Is ready, stir 1t slowly into
the cream and almonds. This rule will
make over two quarts of ice cream.
For apricot cream peel some ripe
apricots and remove their stones. Pass
the pulp through fine sieve. Add to
the pulp an equal quantity of sugar.
To every pint of the mixture add
pint of rich gether freeze 1t. Canned
apricots or peaches may be used.
Make quart Of rich creamflavor-
ed with vanilla or lemon. Make also
pint of raspberry ice. Just before fill
Ing the mould add small quantity of
candied fruit to the ice cream. For
this purpose cherries and lines are
best. Line the mould with the rasp-
berry ice and then fill it up with the
Ice cream. Another way of serving
this dessert Is in individual moulds.
The moulds should be lined with the
Ice and then the centre filled with
the cream and the top covered with
the raspberry ice so that the cream is
completely hidden within. A simpler
way of serving 1t is merely to fill paper
cases with the ice cream, then spread
raspberry ice on top. decorating 1t
with little candied fruit.
Elderly women who love to sew
aften have such poor sight that they
cannot see to thread their needles.
Let one of the younger members of
the family thread a paper of needles by
stringing them all on one thread as one
would string beads. Then, when a
needleful of thread is desired, simply
take the first needle, and as much
thread as Is desired with it, pressing
the other needles back against the
spool and fastening them so that they
will not fall of from the thread on
which they are strung. This is better
than to fill cushion with threaded
needles, because the loose threads are
apt to become tangled,
An excellent way to clean a straw
hat is with lemon Juice. Rub clear
lemon juice over the hat with a small
brush. similar to a toothbrush. The
hat will become very clean in a few
minutes. Use plentiful supply of
lemon juice. Oxalic acid will also
clean straw hat.
In place of the usual hamper for
the laundry a better device is three
large bags of plain white duck, one
Of them marked. Coarse Clothes" the

Kept In a bag by itself and should be
carefully examined for stains before
putting it in the tubs.
