MAKING MONEY, TOO.
Trappers of the Northwest Included
in General Prosperity.

Trappers OF the Northwest Included
in General Prosperity.
The many trappers operating in north
ern Minnesota will reap a rich harvest
during the present winter. This side
sweep of the general wave of prosperity
that has rolled over the land means many
comforts, even Injuries, in the log cabins
of scores of sturdy settlers in the wilds
of the northern country, who are mainly
dependent upon their traps during the
cold months for a livelihood.
The settlers and professionals in the
country directly tributary to Duluth look
for the most part to mink, marten and
otter to make their trapping operations
profitable and the pelts of these little
animals at present command a higher
price than at any time during the past
SO years, though there has been a decided
slump in the prices paid for furs from
the black, blue and silver fox, which
bring only $50 each now, where year
or two ago they were as high as $500
apiece.
Last winter $3.50 was considered a
good price for a mink pelt and it wasn't
more than a season or two back that
$3.50 was the highest paid for a single
pelt OF this kind. Now a choice raw
mink fur will bring 81 and a marten
pelt from $1S to $40, where So or 81 was
paid last winter. An otter skin is worth
| 500 just as it comes from the trapper's
hands, which is away above any price
paid for more than thirty years. Quite
a few fisher are caught through northern
| Minnesota and these are worth from IS
! to SO. Beaver are very scarce and are
worth from 81 to 50 each.
The highest prices paid for furs will
| also prove a boon to the Minnesota In
dians or such of them at least as have
any business ability. A great many of
the Indians trap during the winter, but
the trouble with the majority of them is
that they do not know the value of their
catch and are likely to sell $50 otter
pelt for 81 or So and a 81 mink for
81, or perhaps a pint of whisky. The
white man is we'll aware of this fact and
some agents make it their business dur
ing the winter to do nothing but buy
furs from the Indians, selling them later
| at a handsome margin of profit

A Novel Scheme.

A woman in London has hit upon
a novel scheme in establishing a school
for training young women in house
hold management and making them
proficient in home duties. She adver-
tises for the daughters of professional
men, whom she takes into her family
circle and provides each with a sum
approximating $1,000, the average
yearly salary of young men of
their class and the men they are likely
to marry.
With this sum they are expected to
cover the living expenses Of two per-

EPIDEMIC OF SUICIDES.
Sweeping over New York and All
the Cities of the East.


A suicide wave for which there is no
satisfactory accounting is sweeping over
New York and the entire eastern pOr-
ton of the country, says the New York
Times. Experts who day by day COM
pile and tabuate the vital statistics of
our cities have adduced this fact from
their columns of comparative facts and
figures and have presented it for public
consideration without opinion or COM
ment. which is way peculiar to statis-
icians and others of their kind who deal
in cold, hard actualities.
And perhaps it is just as well. for self
murder at best is one of the most illus
i've and generally unsatisfactory problems
which the health department of a great
city is called upon to face. There is no
adequate explanation for it in any of its
general aspects. If there is a decrease,
that decrease cannot be accounted for,
dnless theoretically; if increase there be
in the number of suicides the health au-
thorities are equally at sea. save, of
course, in times of economic distress
But in the accepted sense of the term
there is no economic distress in this city,
in any city of the country, at the present
time. Times are economically propitious,
never better, and hence the fact that
New York's suicide rate in the present
month has gone far above the average
for the months of last year-22.7 per
100,000-and that other cities report
similar conditions cannot be explained
on the basis of economics, of hard times.

Feeding Idle Horses.

The farm horse that has practical
ly nothing to do during the months Of
winter is Z. costly proposition to feed
If he must be kept on the regulation
ration. 1t is really more profitable to
find some work for the animal to do
which will enable one to afford full
rations, as in the summer, for then
the horse is likely to be in much bet
ter shape to take up the spring work.
OF course, if one is located where the
horse can be on pasture more or less
during the winter months the cost of
wintering the animal is materially re
duced.
In colder sections one must rely on
the sheltered yard to give the horse
needed exercise and largely on the
grain one has; do not attempt to keep
the horse through the winter on rough
age alone, for the plan will only re-
suit in having a rundown animal In
the spring, which will be a costly ex-
pertinent. Horses are not fed nearly
the quantity of roots they should have,
and those who winter idle animals
will find it profitable to grow roots es-
apecially for them to feed with the
grain ration. In the absence of roots,
oil meal bran or some similar articles
which will keep the digestive organs
in good condition must be a part Of
the daily ration. One can get along
very nicely on feeding considerable
roughage and corn if considerable bran
or root crops is also used. Remember,
too, that good grooming and a clean,
light stable will do much toward keep

CHAPTER VvTv

The department Of Starlight was
more friendly after her return to the
village. The reasons for this change
were attributed to the occurrences of
the day; we mean those relating to
Allan Norwood and lie Bland.
Our heroine's emotions while in the
presence Of the former. and her evident
repugnance to the latter, had produced
a favorable impression on the jealous
Indian maiden.
Rosalthe took advantage of Star
Lights mood to refer to the promise
which she had made to conduct her
back to BooneSborough. The subject
gave no apparent displeasure, and the
assurance was given that the matter
should not be long delayed.
Rosalthe was much surprised at the
calmnesS exhibited by the Cherokee
girl, when she obviously felt so deeply
on the subject. That the Frenchman
had made the strongest professions of
love to her there could be no ground
of doubt; and that Starlight still dis
trusted his sincerity was equally sure.
What does White-Cloud think of
Smooth-Tongue?" she asked. abruptly,
on the morning following.
Rosalthe felt that it was her duty to
deal truly and frankly with Starlight;
she therefore replied that she considered
lie Bland a dangerous man, to whose
protestations of love or friendship il
was not safe to trust; that if he had
professed 10 love her (Star-Light), the
truth compelled her TO say that he had
not acted in good faith, for during the
last few weeks he had not ceased tC
perSecute and render her miserable with
his avowals.
While Rosalthe was making this state
ment, Starlight kept her eyes fixed
searchingly on her. When she had
ceased speaking, her companion shooi

Growing Old.

Old, do you say? What is it to be old e?
What metes and bounds define our life's
freehold?
When shall we slacken pace or reef the

Not while the strength is ours to breast
the gale,
Not till our limbs shall totter on the
brink
Of the graves gulf, where soon enough
we sink.

glide,
And faith and courage watt us down the
tide.
The soul that's welded unto love and
truth
Shall live and flourish in immortal youth

Raise More Pumpkins.

E. M. Bennett in Oklahoma Farmer
says: | do not believe that farmers
give quite enough attention to the
growing of pumpkins and squashes; at
least not the attention that these i'm
portant crops are entitled to. New
land is preferable to that which has
been cropped for many years, though
much may be done by judicious fertil-
izing. l plant the hills from eight to
ten feet apart each way and AFTER
wards thoroughly cultivate the ground
as long as the vines will permit. l
then thin out each hill and leave one
or two vines only. My observation is
that one vine to the hill raises moro

When bathing a baby there are three
very important things to remember.
First of ALL the water must be the
right temperature, and always the
same. Test it by putting the elbows
in-the hand is not a safe guide. The
second thing to see is that the room
be quite warm and free from draughts,
and in the third place, never battle a
child just after it has been fed, as
there is always danger of commissions
if he is plunged into hot water with a
full stomach
