There is Il right and wrong way Of
brushing the hair as there is of doing
everything else. First. part down the
center above the forehead and give it
twenty brisk strokes on either SIDE.
Divide it down the back and repeat
the same process. Next brush 1t back
from the ears, giving it always the
twenty strokes. Perseverc with this
treatment and your hair will soon be-
trouble taken with it.
A good shampoo for dry, falling hair
is made as follows: Shave half cake
of white shaving soap and dissolve 1t IN
a pint and half of hot water, add
thirty grains of potassium carbonate,
100 grains of powdered boraX and
two ounces each of bay rum and best
cologne. Wet the head well, then rub
with this shampoo all over, cleaning
the scalp with the tips of the fingers,
rinse in several waters, the last cold,
and dry thoroughly.
Few women look after the ends of
the hair, which are bound to split In
Tune. lHe longer tue lliIT tIic Sic"tSi
the care, naturally. But split hairs
mean a ragged head covering and look
woefully untdy 1t is not wise to al
low the hair to grow too long. 1t Is
hard to care Tor and never does up to
advantage. More than that, the
weight is apt to weaken the roots.
Abundant hair. long enough to ar
range neatly in any of the sensible
prevailing styles, is Il joy in right
minded woman.

CARE OF CLOTHES.
How Men May Profit by Some Useful
Hints.

How Men hay roAAs W cD
Hints.
Anv sensible man can take care OF
his clothes and save money. The point
!. II takes time and any amount or
thought and care, which busy man
cannot spare. There is no question,
though. that clothes properly attended
to will wear as long again as they
would otherwise and always seem
fresh and new, says the Brooklyn
Eagle.
The first thing to remember Is to
hr,,sh each suit Immediately upon tax
ing It OF ana look thoroughly for
spots. II there are any they should be
cleaned of Immediately, fluid being
kept on hand for this purpose. \ small
niece of white flannel will answer well
for the cleaning, and naphtha, benzine
or gasoline Will accomplish the desired
results. Spots left for a day or so are
hard to remove.
Coat and waiStcoat should be hung
In the clothes closet on hanger, the
waistcoat under the coat. There is
divergence of opinion rs to trousers.
The most commonly accepted plan Is
to fold them and put them in long
drawer, with piece Of paper between
each pair. Others say however, that
this Is all wrong; that they should be
carefully hung in the closet and never
folded. A necessity is that suits and
odd trousers be sent to tailor's for
pressing frequently, as soon as they
show the faintest signs Of wrinkling.
There Ii much detail as to keeping
hats looking well. Each hat should
have its box and should invariably be
kept in 1t when 1t is not being worn.
The ordinary pasteboard hat box will
do quite we'll. Brush every hat with
soft brush before putting it on. A soft
hat should be put away resting on its
brim, with all the creases taken out
Of the crown. The stiff hat, on the
other hand, when put away should not
rest on the brim, but on the top of the
crown. A silk hat should also stand
on its crown when not in actual use,
and 1t should never be forgotten that
this type Of hat before being put away
should have especial care. Clean It
with q soft cloth or soft brush.
Wing collars will wear much longer
II they are Numbered fat and bent to
the proper shape by the wearer when
he puts one on. Shoes only keep their
shape properly when trees are kept in
them. Gloves should be kept In tissue
paper and when taken Off must be
pulled out carefully. Cravats are best
kept fiat In a drawer, though some ex-
perts speak in favor Of hangers.

Eggs In Baked Potatoes.
Eggs in baked potatoes are an at
tractive vegetarian dish suitable for
luncheon or breakfast. Select fairly
large potatoes of an equal size. Wash
and bake them until soft. Allow one
egg for each potato. Separate the
whites from the yolks, keeping the
yolks whole Beat the whites to
stiff froth When the potatoes are suf-
fcicntly cooked cut round hole in the
top of each and scoop out the inside.
With this beat the stiff whites of the
eggs and an ounce of melted butter to
each four potatoes. Season with salt
and pepper and return to the skin,
leaving Il hollow in the top of each po-
tato. Into this drop the yolk of an
egg. sprinkle the top with brown
crumbs and one or two tiny bits of
butter. Return to the oven long enough
to set the egg. Serve very hot. If
this is considered too much trouble,
the baked potatoes are very nice sim
ply scoopcd out little and the whole
egg dropped in and returned to the
oven for few minutes.

Rightly or wrongly as may appear to
candidates, the people had been think
ing. They may not have always thought
right, but the vote of Tuesday last was
cast intelligently and with forethought
In this county nobody talked or worked
until two weeks before election and that
is TOO short time to turn the voters in
the different directions they showed at
the pt lis. 1t must have been done be-
fore. We are always glad to see the
people think. In many cases the popu-
lar verdict is not ours, is not correct;
but this is true, that finally the people
get to the right. They did in the silver
dollar campaign, they did in the 'gran-
ger" railroad agitation of years ago, and
they always will. The people of North
Dakota elected a Democratic governor
once before, but they did not repeat the
act-until now.

why in either and all cases is apparent
except tho way the ballots were marked
Then for governor Sarles got within Il
votes as many as did Knauf for Judge
but on the other side Burke leads Fisk
by 80 votes. Looking at the ballot i
would thus appear that lot of people
when they marked Morgan thought they
had voted also for Knauf, who was ir

ERRORS IN RETURNEs.

In view of the close votes on the sup.
erintendency, it might be well to say
why the first returnes as reported con.
tain SO many errors. In the carrying on
of the election there is a mans list
kept in the poll-bo proper and the
women's vote on separate sheet
When the votes are counted the Judges
and clerks often fail to record the wo.
mems vote in the recapitulation of the
poll book as they should, but leave it on
the separate sheet. Then when people
make copy of the returns from the
pre- met from the poll book they Of
course forget or omit the women's vote
In every election since the women have
been allowed to vote this has been the
case. We think from personal know.
ledge and experience, it is safe 10 say
that out of the thirty-fiv poll books re
turned in this county each election
there are. generally about seven tha
show this or some similar, irregularity ir
the return of the women's vote.
:
Also in the mems vote for other can
didates the returns are taken generally
as soon as the count is made of the tally
sheets and sent out by mail or tele
phone. When the fiigurxs are checked
again in recapitulation there may be one
or more votes changed, which have been
erroniously added, or some other error
made.
The canvassing board also often finds
that judges and clerks have made self.
evident errors in the poll books that
have to be corrected.
The counting of votes in some large
townships is long and tiresome job
and often takes until morning to com.
, plete. Sometimes the clerks are men
who are unused to severe clerical labor
hence the liability to err. The wonder is
: that we get them as correct as we do in
SO short time.
We give elsewhere in this issue table
showing the men and women vote sep.
arate in each precinct with the totals
copied from official returns.s

One Of the things that has come out
at this election is the fact that notwith-
standing the large emigration to the
Canadian northwest from this county
during the last two years, yet the total
vote Of the county has not diminished to
any great extent if at all. Two years
ago the vote was about 265O and this
year it will be about $3.50, and this diff
ference may largely be accounted for
blythe fact that 1904 was presidential
year and this was an off year.

OVER THOUSAND
DUCKS KILLED.

This week has been the nimrOds
week las much as it has been the
politicians week. No big game has
50 far been reported killed in Chou
teau county, but the slaughter of
ducks was enough to go down In his
tory. Prairie chickens, sage hans
and all kinds Of prairie birds are
reported exceptionally scarce. Fishing
is fair in the right spots, but nil in
a number of localities hitherto con-
sidered among the best grounds. It
is nowhere up to the average. The
falling off in the numbers of prairie
game is charged to the exceptionally
heavy rains last spring, Which killed
the young and drove away the elders.
