The serIiner's CHIEF Virtue.

1t takes years to make a friend of a
Berliner, but then you have a friend
indeed His chief virtue is his up
rfghtness, his sturdy sense of duty.
When the great elector was urged in
turbulent times to marry he respond
ed, "My dagger must be my bride I'M
til this task is done" Frederick the
Great said, eft is not necessary that /
live, but it is necessary that do my
duty" The first emperor had 'no time
to be tired" and his noble Empress
Augusta was fond Of saying, Elm
pires pass; God alone remains"
Principles like these are the founda-
ton Of the Berliner's character. No
other city in the world has such an
honest and efficient administration

Retiring Head of State Labor Bureau
Takes Parting Shot.

That the labor department of this
state is run for political purposes
only is the accusation of the
head of the department, w. H. Will
Jams, who has been replaced at the
end of his term by W. e. McEwen.
Williams parting shot comes in the
form of supplementary report which
was delivered to the legislature. To
improve matters Williams recon-
mends that the position be made cleo
tive, that the inspectors in the de-
partment pass civil service examina-
ton and that no one be appointed
who does not give his entire time to

How a Snake Sheds It's skin.

The human skin is shed In such INF
mute pieces that 1t ordinarily comes
away unnoticed. But the skin Of
snake comes away whole two or three
times year and is drawn of inside
out from the head backward as the
creature creeps through some bush, to
which it Is left attached. Before it is
shed the skin loses its color, and the
eyes become dim, because their outer
skin is cast with the rest. The snake
emerges very brightly colored from its
old skin, and it's markings are then
most distinct.

.CRITTENTON HOME
MAKES APPEAL
LOCAL CHARITY INSTITUTION

HAPPINESS TO INMATES AT
CHRISTMAS TIME-GRocERIEs.
DRY GOODS, ETC., ACCEPTABLE.

Plans were laid at a meeting held
yesterday to bring joy to the hearts
Of the girls and children in the Flor

This meeting was attended by the SUI
perintendent of the home, Miss Lillian
Topping, and number of the women
of the city, members of the nome
board.
The following appeal was sent out
to the people of the city:
There are in the home at the pres
emit time twenty girls and ten chill
dren. The superintendent and a few
members of the board met yesterday
afternoon and planned a small Christ
mas treat for them. Surely the gen.
erous people of Fargo will not let this
home lack for Christmas cheer. A
very little from each one will mean
so much to these unfortunate and in
most cases friendless girls.
Please ask your grocer to send the
Florence Crittenton home your dona-
tions Of fruit, nuts, sugar, -four or any
other household supplies. Your dry
goods merchant will gladly send your
gift of handkerchiefs, material for in
fants' dresses, stockings and any of
the things which all women and chill
dren wear. The girls of the home are
taught to sew and will make up all
materials sent.
We hope some farmer will read this
and send poultry, meat or vegetables
