instruments to the new long
distance type, preparatory to
cutting over to the new tele-
phone system.
The switchboard is installed
in the new building and ready
for service, and within a few
days the subscribers will be
talking through the new instru-
ments. These instru ments are
the same type that are used at
the toll stations and in the
larger cities They are called
"Long gdistance" or" Solid back"
telephones. and come in two
styles, one a nickle plated in
strument for a desk, and the
other, a wall instrument. They
are not 80 cumbersome as the
old type and being connected
by two wires with the central
Office, give transmission that is
az nearly perfect as it is posi-.
BILE for a telephone company to
furnish.
The service will be the same
as that given in all of the larg-
er cities, and very few cities
the size of Wahpeton and
Breckenridge have that kind of
service. The company hope to
be soon settled in their new
central Office.

Church last Friday evening.
"THE GIRL TO LOVE AND HOW TO
TREAT HER"
Great happiness can never
crown the home life of any
couple without high ideals and
genuine sentiment on the part
of both husband and wife.
Love is the only alchemy that
idealizes and glorifies married
life. 1t is not simply cook,
or chambermaid, or house.
keeper that true man wants
when he marries, it is wife,
and only sincere love and COM
panionship can crown woman
hood and make it wifely. A
hard and unromantic realism,
that makes of home simply a
lodgingplace destroys all that
is beautiful in it. a wife aids
her husband, not so much by
what she does herself, as by
what she inspires him to do.
A woman to be beautiful must
be happy and at her best.
Beauty is a great element in
woman's power. Cupid shoots
his arrows out of the portfolios
of beauty. Emerson wrote, "All
men are lovers of beauty"
But true beauty is not simply
outward but inward. To be
genuinely attractive and win
some the soul within must be
looked after. Kindly and
beautiful thought writes itself
upon the features of the face.
On the other hand let woman
encourage the vinegary tend
encies of her nature an1 she
need not be surprised if she
finds herself among the unap-
propriated blessings of life. A
loving and noble heart will
give to any woman the power
to charm and be loved. Young
people if you would be attract.
i've take care of your souls.
