''Now You See it and Now
You Dom Gag.

The magical allurements of the
gypsy fortune teller whose meaning
less mouthings oftimes seem most fit
ting and appropriate, will never again
appeal to certain salesman in the
Benner, Begg & Garvin department
store in this city. "No more occul-
tism for me-" said the gentleman this
morning. 1T nearly cost me $50 to
get wise, but thanks to the brazen
heartedness of my gypsy fieecer, I'm

1t seems that on Saturday after
noon one of the gypsy band which has
been making headquarters in this city
since the middle of the week, wended
her nendaciOus way into the clothing
department of the above mentioned
store, and by sundry pleadings and
promises, induced the salesman to al
low her to tell his fortune. He was
required to extend the hand palm up-
wards with piece of silver thereon.
The woman then ordered the silver re-
turned to her victims pocket and bills
substituted. The gypsy next placed a
silk handkerchief over the money,
which consisted of five, ten, and
twenty in bills. She then removed
the handkerchief and the victim re-
placed the money in his pocket.
Everything would have worked fine

discovered that he was twenty dol

after his female bunco steerer. It is
reported that the first thing on the
menu card was hair pulling, followed
by several angry phrases. The third

DAKOTA BRUSH
ARTIST
$3.50 Oil Painting on Exhibi-
ton in Show Windows of
the Rex Cigar Store.

Hundreds of people on Sunday and
today paused in front of the windows
of the Rex Cigar store to admire the
beautiful oil painting which is therein
on exhibition. The canvas is valued
at $3.50 and is from the brush of one
of the states leading artists, DR..
Jameson of Osnabrock. DR.. Jameson
took for her subject an elk which is
depicted in bold relief high up in a
rocky glen. The painting is the
property Of Col. Frank Hansen, and
aside from its intrinsic worth, it is
valued highly by him for other rea-
sons.
North Dakotans will regret to learn
that DR.. Jameson expects soon to
leave the state. She will take up her
home in Seattle.
