CARNIVAL COMPANY HAS
MANY ATTRACTIONS
Some Excellent Free Attractions
as Well as Many Paid Shows
Large Crowd Enjoys The Big
Exh.bitiOn-Will be Here All
Week.

The Cash Carnival Co., one of
the first aggregations of the kind
that ever exhibited in Minot, is
here this week in full force.
Everybody in Minot knows it.
The company really has some
very clever attractions and of
course is well patronized. Some
Of the attractions are free and
we'll worth seeing. For instance
the man who makes the high
dive from on top of the seventy
foot ladder is a daring fellow and
takes his life on his hands every
time he does the thrilling per-
formance. Then the fellow who
rides the wheel from a fifty foot
incline, jumping a gap Of twenty
feet, is also in great danger. An
other attraction worthy OF men:
ton is the fellow who rides the
bike around the hugh tub, as we'll
as the lady who does the trapeze
work.
The Carnival Company carries
the following shows which, how
ever, are not free: Fairyland,
Pink & Grey, Dixieland, Girl
show, Snake show, Crazy house,
Ferris wheel, and the merry-go-
round.
The Carnival will continue to
do business until the end of the
races, Saturday, July 6.

Market Place for the Farmers

The city council ought to make
some preparation for hay and
general market place for the
farmers. AS it is now, the farm
ers have to scatter their loads Of
hay along the various streets and
are put to a great deal of incon-
venience. We depend upon the
trade of the farmers largely, and
would only be treating them fair
in providing them with such a
place. A watering trough should
be located close to the market.
This would cost but a little and
would be greatly appreciated by
the tillers of the soil.

Dainty handkerchiefs have certain
fascination for the majority OF women.

decorated in French knots worked in

THE MAN BEHIND THE PLAN
Is THE ONE THAT MAKES BUSI.
NESS A SUCCESS.
The Combination of Both, However
Is Necessary to Win
Out.

From the Talking Machine World
We are prone to give credit to the plan
as being the thing that makes success
full business. It Is not the plan, 1t Is the
man behind the plan that is responsible for
the success. The man who has well-de-
fined IDEAL who hews to the line. VINO
eliminates all deterrent influences, who
concentrates his energy on his ideal, who
bends his efforts toward the one thing Is
pretty sure to accomplish his purpose.
We often see man make marked sue
cess In a field that others have considered
barren Take small town. for instance
where there are many retail stores. The
people OF the town will tell the prospective
merchant that the town is ALREADY over
crowded with stores, that none OF the
stores seem to be making more than bare
living and that 1t would be Impossible Tor
another store to make success on account
of the already overcrowded conditions yet
the right man comes along and starts

success.

the man who originates plan and carries
it to successful conclusion has patent on
his business. This patent Is his Individual
ity and good business equipment. The man
who steals his plan physically Is unable to
steal the mental end.
Since men have recorded facts In the
shape Of history, we find that men have
made successes Of plans and businesses
that have been discarded by their predeces-
sors as played-out plans.
Two banks may start side by side with
exactly the same office furniture and ex-
actly the same business operations. They
use the same kind of money; they make
loans on lands or on securities. The oper-
atoms of these two banks may be closely
identical as possible, yet within ten years
one bank will have considerable surplus
and the other may be out OF business.
If the plan were the measure of success.
as Dollars and Sense aptly says, these two
banks should fare equally well. but the
fact that they differed materially is in
itself evidence that the success is deter
mined by the individuals and not the plan.
The illustration OF a bank may be car
ried into other MISUNDERSTANDING man

SUMMER BATHING.
Refreshing Baths Act as Tonnes in
Hot Weather

Whether not hot or cool bath mot
cold is the better for refreshing one in
kwarm weather is open TO discussion. The
beory that hot tub reduces the tempera-
thre of the body Is certainly true, but on
the other hand there are conditions under
which hot bath is not to be considered.
A person of little vitality. already partially
exhausted by warm weather, will be In a
condition verging on fainting after taking
warm tub, II the same person sits in a
tub of water which is chilly, or of which
only the chiE is taken off. the water will
draw the heat from the body and the re-
suit is cooling.
For this reason each individual must de-
eide which Is best for herself. There is
however no question but that bath, in
summer. may be made more invigorating
by tine addition of stimulating properties,
the best known OF which is sea salt. This
may be bought at any druggists, and a
couple of pounds or more dissolved in the
tub make the bath Ike a dip in the ocean.
Soap should not be used with II, and a salt
bath is far more tonicizing taken cold than
hot
Nothing is more refreshing when exhaust
ed by heat than a camphor bath The &C
ton Of the gum upon the skin and head Is
highly beneficial and may be mad by mixing
two ounces of tincture of camphor, half an
ounce OF tincture of bezoin and four ounces
Of cologne or alcohol. Enough of this is
put into the tub to make the water aro-
matte. and the body Is immersed for fifteen
minutes more.
More stimulating than plain salt is a
combination of one poand Of muriate Of
soda, one-haH pound of sulphate of soda. a
quarter of pound of chloride of lime and
q quarter OF pound OF chloride OF mag
nesia.
The ingredients are dissolved in two or
three gallons OF water and put into the
usual tub of water.
soda bath is especially cooling when
the blood and skin are heated and has
beneficial results. Common bicarbonate Of
soda Is used. and four or Ave ounces are
perature Of which is not high Soap may
be used with this, but long soaking of
the body is better
The length Of time that a person may
remain in tub must be decided by the
Individual, for too long Immersion is
should have all the refreshment 1t can
get
Fifteen minutes is not too long for the
average person, and twenty minutes may
usually be INDUCED in without danger
More than that should not be had by any
except those with great physical strength.
Such bath taken just before going to
bed will refresh one sufhciently to insure
"A good nights rest many times, and a
shower on getting up in the morning is
worth many times what the apparatus
costs.
Almost every tub Is now fitted for a
hand spray but when this is lacking
spraying arrangements are to be found
at any toilet department druggists.
The shower taken should be cold, or at
least cool, one, and need not consume more
than two minutes If one Is pressed for
time. II is as invigorating as fresh water

will. OF course tend to Tighten the shade
1t may be timely to add that all colored
kerchiefs should be laid in solution of
salt and water before washing for the first
soap should be used for washing. They
should not be put through blueing water,
and the most satisfactory way Is to wash
them carefully, rinse in clear water lay
leaving for an hour iron first through the
cloth with fairly hot iron, then without
the cloth with warm iron. Sometimes
the color will be seen to darken and look
faded under the iron as the process goes
on. There is nothing wrong about this,
however. It is something In the dye that

MOTHER JONES H0TF00TS
 IT TO CLIFTON STRIKE

PHOENIX. July 30-"Mother" Jones was in the city few hours yesterday, en route to Clifton. in answer to telegram calling her to assist the striking miners in that district. The call came rather sooner than was ex- pected while she was in the notheTn part of the territory, holding meet ings and addressing large audiences at Prescott, Jerome, Humboldt and McCabe. When seen yesterday, Mother" Jones said she had received an enthusiastic reception in all the mining towns which she visited. The strike began on Wednesday at Cliff ton and she said she was going down there to stir up trouble and help the strikers win.
 The Pinks" will probably get after me down there," said she. ~They don't have any love for me. I can tell you that. I am going down 10 fight the Copper Queen and if don't wake them up. it will be wonder. Oh, | am still in the battle, young man, and in it to win"
 Quite an interested crowd gathered around Mother" Jones at the train last night, some bent on bidding her goodby, others anxious and curious to overhear what comment she would have to make on her mission. There will no doubt be some lively times when she arrives in the mining camp for which she Is bound. She thought if the "Pinks," as she called them, knew of her coming she would not ar rive very promptly. unless she walked. which she said she was ready to do in a case of necessity. But she said she would get there some way
