which are largely devoted to retail

The shopper from out Of town or
the citizen who desires to purchase
any article for his own use always
wants variety Of stocks to select
his purchase from. and in Fargo his

stocks that await the people of North

In Fargo's dry goods stores. the most
important store to the ladies, stocks
are carried equal to those in many
cities OF 10000 or $4,000 population
These stocks are said BY visitors from
the larger cities to be equal, If not
superior to the offerings Of the mer-
chants Of those places. IN clothing

FARGO AS A SHOPPING CENTER

Christmas, shoppers. In this respect
Fargo store keepers keep right up with
the procession, and the lines Of holi-
day novelties now to be found on dis
play are superior to those found Ia any
other city in the northwest. The
beauty and value of the presents car
ried In stock here are not cxcelled by
those TO be found in Chicago or New
York. II is possible for the man with
a plethorie purse to find gifts which
will tax it's capacity, and II is also
possible for the man with but a few
dollars to expend on remenlbrances. to
ind here what he desires at a very
moderate cost.
The accommodating clerks empl ~
ed In the various stores have won .
reputation throughout this section of
he country for their universal cour-
tesy and pleasant manners, which has
brought many people from q distance
to Fargo to do their shopping. The
business men make 1t a practice OF
keeping their sales people the year
around, and the clerks Of Fargo are
among the most contented and best
paid to be found in this country.
One thing that cannot fail to I'm
press the shopper Is the beauty OF the
window displays OF the enterprising
merchants. No store is too small to
have beautiful window, and the mer-
chants spare no expense in arranging
their displays. Electric lights are
used lavishiy and many Of the win
dows would not be out OF place on
State street, Chicago. In fact q num-
Der Of windows arranged by local naer-
chants have won prizes in contests
conducted by general supply houses,
in which there has been entries from
every state in the union. The beauty
az the windows il enhanced by the
electroliers which line both sides OF
the retail streets.

There is region in northwest

Rumanians. Hungarians and Ger

the bulk of the inhabitants are of
, one race, dotted with villages in
which the fragments of other races
still survive, some of them, like

they are not separately counted as

these circumstances travel In this

Through him | had an opportun-

tenements in which European peo-
pie live, and to see some OF the
working people in their homes.
1 did not have an opportunity to
explore the parts of the city in
which the very poor people live;
in fact, l was told that there was
nothing in Prague that corresponds
to the slums of cur English and
American cities. There is much
poverty, but it is poverty OF
self respecting sort-not of those
who have been defeated and gone
under, but of those who have Dev-

working for wages considerably
less than the same kind of labor
would have, brought in America.
There is, however, very little use
in comparing the wages that men
earn unless you are able to COM
pare all the surrounding conditions.
During my stay in Prague L had
an opportunity to see something
close at hand of the life OF the
farming population. Under the
Guidance of one of DIR. Clark's as
sistants I:drove out one day to a
little village where there were a
number of people who had come

I was assured should find a well

One of the most interesting plac-
es that | visited during my stay in
this village was dairy farm which
was conducted by jew. He was
evidently one of those of the lower
or middle class-a type one hears
much of in Europe-who, with
very little knowledge or skill in the
actual work of agriculture, have
succeeded by their superior busi-
ness skill In getting possession of
the land, and reducing the peasant
to position not much better than
that of serf. This man not on
ly kept IA dairy farm, but he oper-
ated two or three brick-yards be-
sides, and had other extensive bus
mess interests in the village. AL
though he was man OF wealth
and intelligence, he had his dwell
ING in the midst of compound
around which were grouped houses
for his laborers, cowstalls. a wheel
wright and blacksmith shop -plac-
es for pigs, chickens and dogs, the
whole in condition of f-indescrib-
able disorder and filth.
The greater part of the work on
the farm seemed to be done by
women, most of whom were bare
footed or wore wooden shoes. L
do not think | had seem any one
wearing wooden shoes before since
the days of slavery. They had re-
mained in my mind as the symbol
of poverty and degradation; but
they are worn everywhere in coun-
try districts in Europe. In fact, L

visited an agricultural school find

ing in the garden wearing
wooden shoes. The people who
worked on this farm all lived as
far as I could see, in one little ILL
smelling and filthy room. There
was no sign in the homes
which I visited of those household
industries for which Hungarian
peasants are noted, and which
should help to brighten and make
comfortable the simplest home.

tions in our Southern States where

one would not find the colored peo-
