A New Bridal Shower.

Quite the newest thing in bridal
showers is for the friends to pool their
money and give one nice gift instead
of number of small articles. If it is
a luncheon the present is brought in
on a tray by the maid; if tits an af-
ternoon or evening party, a box con-
tanning the offering is delivered by spe-
cial messenger A brass candlestick
copper bowl, dainty luncheon cloth
or bit of oriental stuff for a pillow OF
table cover are all most acceptable to
a prospective bride.

LIFE IN OCEAN.
Professor of Cambridge (Eng.) Uni
versity Tells Some New and
Interesting Facts.

J. Stanley Gardiner, of Cambridge
university, has been exploring the
Indian ocean and gives it as his opin-
ion that at one time there was land
connection between Ceylon and Mad
agascar. But it is in describing the
wonders of the deep that his report
grows most interesting. "A very con-
brought up" he says. "At least half
the number we secured seemed quite
new specimens, and, l believe, are
not described in any textbook. Some
Of these had enormous eyes, some
only rudimentary eyes, the size Of
a pins head, while some had no
eyes at all.
zone of the most interesting dis
coveries we made was that floating
life is exceedingly abundant at all
depths down to about 1000 fathoms
in seas $500 fathoms deep. BY float
ing life l mean animals which form
the food of whales and deep-ocean
fish, and which up to the present
have been believed to live on or very
close to the surface. A variety of
enormous squids was fished out as
well as jelly fish and gigantic prawns
fully six inches long. Some of these
latter were blind, while others had
huge eyes, but nearly all of them
had phosphorescent organs, which
would naturally be due to the fact
that they live at depth where al
most total darkness prevails.
"The blind varieties had enormous
feelers, or tentacles, some of them
extending to twice the length of
their own bodies. Some forms, such
as the water flea, which is only about
the size of a pins head in surface
water, we discovered six or ten times
that size in GOO Or 700 fathoms."

THE GHME OF CLOCK GOLF.

your ground will permit, build little
"tee'' or pile of earth by each number,
and try to drive it into the hole in the
center with one stroke. 1t is not at all
likely that you will, but it will prob
ably take you four or five. Then mark
on a card the number of strokes you
had to use, and go to the second tee,
and so on until you have gone "all
around the clock.
Place the ball on the tee by No. 1,
and try to drive it into the hole in the
center with one stroke. 1t is not at all
likely that you will, but it will prob
ably take you four or five. Then mark
on a card the number of strokes you
had to use, and go to the second tee,
and SO on until you have gone "all
around the clock"
Place the ball on the tee by No. 1,
and you are ready to play. Your ball
should be the regulation golf ball
After a little practice, says Good Lit
erature, you will be making almost
every hole in two strokes, but 1T will
be long time before you can do 1T IN
"bogie," or the least number of strokes
possible to the ordinary player. Some
very fire players beat "bogie," which
is usually placed at one stroke for
every other hole, and two strokes for
the remainder or around the clock"
in eighteen strokes. You will improve
your game almost every time you play,
and you will find o'clock GOLF the best
sort of practice for real golf. Clock
golf is not to be despised by any means
for lots of golf professionals play it
great deal, as it is the finest kind OF
training in putting.

Nine Ways to Knock.

There are nine ways you can hurt
your own town. The following are
well worth the thoughtful considera-
tion of every citizen,
Oppose improvement.
Mistrust our public men.
Run down the town in the presence
of strangers.
Go to some other town to do your
trading.
Refuse to advertise in your home
papers.
Be careful to discredit the motives
of public spirited men who are work
ing for the interests of the town.
Lengthen your face when strangers
speak of locating here. Tell them
it's the worst place on earth,
If a man wants to buy your proper
ty charge him two prices for it. 1t
will be the last chance to give your
town dig.
Refuse to see merit in any scheme
that does not benefit you and yours.

TaE drainage campaign in the

1Hk drainage campaign IN tue
state IS coming coming Sa most most snoortrag-
insly and the wide discussion of
the problem not only in Minnesota
but in other states, seems likely
to make it n national issue by COM
pariSon with which the tariff and
railway rates look like small issues.
As 4 financial proposition in this
state drainage involves, seems so
stupendous IS to be beyond known
conception. We may understand
the amounts involved, for instance,
in some of the deals made for min
ing properties on the range where
hundreds of millions dollars are
mentioned without so much as a
catch in the voice, but compare
with this the creation of proper
ties that will sell at the minimum
prices for 100000, 900 as would
Minnesota swamp areas if reclaimed,
then add to this the value of the
produce of this area, estimated at
an additional hundred of millions,
the new towns, new cities, villages
and counties would spring into ex-
istence, the varied industries GER
tain to be established and all of
this increasing in valre as the
years GO by and figures cease to be
expressive. And we are not value
ing in this estimate the hundreds
of thousands of new people who
would come to US, nor considering
human happiness the requirement
of homes would involve. Viewed
from this standpoint drainage as
sumes an aspect and presents a
picture enhancing and encourag-
ing. Certainly we may all of us
afford to urge the improvement
and contribute our mite towards
attainment of the object.
