Big GAIN MADE
in STAMP SALE
CONTRARY TO EXPECTATIONS
THE FARGO PosToFFIcE HAS
SHOWN A SUBSTANTIAL GAIN
IN THE SALE OF STAMPS OVER
LAST YEAR.

Contrary to expectations the receipts
at the stamp window in the Fargo
postoffice for the month of January
show a big gain over the correspond
ing month in 1910. During the month
this year the gain was Salty, which
is a remarkably good one.
1t was expected that on account the
roor conditions of the crops during tho
last year that stamp sale would show
a big decrease for the month. This
sale really shows the amount of the
business that is being done by the
Fargo houses, and the very fact that
they are handling more mail, is the
best evidence that the key city is do
ing more business than ever.

If YOU ARE GIVING MONEY
Here Are Some Unique Ways Of Pre-
aenting 1t Without Causing
Any Embarrassment.

In many Instances the gift OF money
is the very best for both the giver
and the receiver. just how to give it
is often perpleXing question. To a
young person who plays bridge an
indulgent uncle sent pack OF cards
between the cards were ten S. bills
The cards were enclosed in pretty
heart-shaped box and bore this in
scription: For the Queen OF Hearts. :"
A dainty gift-book may be used as
place OF concealment for bills OF any
denomination.
A clever conceit was bail OF silver
cord with instructions to unwind each
day until tiny package was reached.
Pill boxes containing coins were
wound within, and funny jingles with
each. There were boxes to last seven
days, and thus the Christmas mystery
was prolonged. This was an especial
ly happy thought, as the recipient was
temporarily '.shut-in.' An umbrella
was sent, having written on an at
tached card: For rainy day" When
the umbrella was opened $40 bill
was found securely wrapped around
the handle-Woman's World

This would make her feel that he had

a Christmas proposal all at once
would certainly appeal to the roman
tic side of any girl
So he wrote his note, wrapped 1t
about the ring. replaced the ring and
the note in the little box. wrapped it
up and betook himself to AmabeIs
home.
The porch from which he planned
to effect his surreptitious entrance
was a side one. He remembered that
last summer Amabel's father had
sald he must have the catch on the
window repaired. He knew perfectly
we'll Amabel's father hadn't done So
