there is always opportunity to place the

on the arm. The hat has its under sur
face faced with black and the brim Is
turned sharply up under the mass OF
flowers. Two tones of blue are COM
bined with black in the parasol.
Opportunities for the use Of black are
legion. Pipings, buttons, braid and silk
floss to accentuate a design can be
used with effect. Velvet and satin by
the yard hold first place, and with the
approval of Paris are sent across to our

SAFE AND PROFITABLE

There has been periods when land
did not advance as rapidly as at other
times, but there never has been time
when men We're willing to sell land for
less than it cost them, hence it is a safe
Investment. There never has been q
time when there were so many people
from eastern states and the large cities,
and from foreign countries coming west
in search of good farming land. There
never has been time when the yearly
increase in the population of the United
States was as great as at the present
time. This great demand for good
farm land, this rapid increase IN popu-
lation, cannot fail to increase the de-
mand. and the price of good farming
land. 25 years ago Illinois had popu-
lation of $500, 900. The average price
of land was $35 to $40 per acre. Today
Illinois has a population of $3.50, 900
and the average price of Illinois for
farming land is 500 to 1925 per acre.
People naturally come west after cheap
land. There are more people coming
into South Dakota and buying land than
into any state in the Union. There has
been more railroad building in South
Dakota during the last two years than
any other state, and this alone is suf-
ficient evidence of what great business
men think of South Dakota. The wise
man, therefore, at the present time is
he puts every spare dollar in good farm
ing lands, before the advance in pric e
sets in.

ADMITS HE SET FIRE

Casper Rymann, aged 81, a tramp,
has confessed to State Fire Marshal
f. "A. Craft and States ATTORNEY l..
L. Van Slyke, that he is responsible
for the fire at Mansfield last Saturday
which destroyed S75, 900 worth of pro,
perty in the heart of the business
section of the little town. Rymann
denies, however. that he started it
Intentionally, but claims it was purely
accidental.
He had been working in Mansfield
and in the country nearby for some
time, sleeping wherever the opportu-
nifty occurred. On the night Of the
fire he slept in frame building which
had been a long time vacant, and
which contained nothing but an iron
cot and a mattress. About 5 o'clock
IN the.morning Rymann says he awoke
and rolled d cigarette aud smoked ii.
He tnen fell asleep, and was awak en-
ed later to find the room a mass of
flames. He escaped and fearing. de.
lection, He'd block away and sought
refuge in barn. A little later he
joined the fire fighters, but his evil
dent nervousness aT3used suspicion
and he was watched, and his arrest
followed when he bought a ticket for
Aberdeen and prepared to leave the
town. After vigorous cross exami
ming by Fire Marshal Craft and
States Attorney Van Sykes, he
owned to setting fire to the building
with his cigarette, which he claim S
fell from his mouth ana ignited the
old building as he fell asleep after
lighting it.
Rymann, was given Il sentence OF
one year in the state penltentiary al

INDIAN FARMERS ARE MANY

The Indians on the Sisseton reser-
walton in the north western portion

progress in civilization. This was
not only shown in the trial of Jacob
keoke, one of their number, for the
murder of George Kampeska, who
pleaded the "unwritten law" i'm reg

out by the statements of Major S. A..

says that while fully Is per cent of
the reservation Indians are fullbloOds
10 per cent of them have become agri-
culturlsts, and have proven them
selves thrifty and fairly successful as
farmers.

In his infancy he is an angel in his
boyhood he is a devil; in his manhood
he is everything from a lizard up; in
his duties he is fool; if he raises a
family he is a chump; if he raises a
small check he is thief, and then
the law raises the devil with him; if
he IS poor man he is poor manager
and has no sense; If he is rich he is
dishonest but considered smart: if he
is In politics yon can't place him as
he is ali undesirable citizen; if he goes
to church he is a hypocrite; if he
stays away from church he is a sim
ner; If he donates to foreign missions
he does it for show; if he doesn't he
is stingy and tight wad.
When he comes into the world
everybody wants to kiss him; before
he goes out they wapt to kick him.
If he dies young there was "a great
future before him: if he lives to a
ripe old age he is simply in the way
and living to save funeral expenses.

like to travel it just the same.
