A Beautiful Picture.

Did you ever notice how really
beautiful gum chewing makes q girl
appear? Take her de facto, and gaz-
ing steadily, one can not find a more
ideal picture. With q sharp click!
clack! her teeth, SO white and pearly,
are clashing together: rs, with coiwish
glee, she masticates her cud. Then,
too, n car note her health tinted,
we'll rounded cheeks as they grbw q
little mor rotund, through the mater

gum. And really, who=can imagine
a: fairef' spectacle than that of her
dainty upturned nose, as it. gently
rises and falls in waye-like :undula-
lions over the abysmal depths reveal
ed at'each pressure against the mass?
Oh, how deliciously tempting that
rosebud mouth is as the maiden fills

in che Injuries of the succulent toma-
to can, she greets you in tones husky

purer air and al see afar off Heav-

WILL HAVE BOY SCOUTS
Rev. Wallace Will Lead the
Movement in Devils
Lake.
Devils Lake Journal:

Devils Lake Journal:
The Boy Scout is an organization,
the purpose of which is character
building for boys between the ages OF
twelve and eighteen. 1t is an effort
to get the boys to appreciate the
things about them and train them in
self-reiiance, manhood and good citi-
zenship. 1t is peace scouting these
boys are engaged in, living so much
as possible out of doors; camping,
hiking and learning the secrets of the
woods and fields The movement is
not essentially military, but the mill
tary virtues of discipline, obedience,
neatness and order are scout virtues.
Endurance, self-reliance, self-control
and an effort to help someone else are
scout ohjectives, Every activity that
lends itself to these aims is.3good
scout craft.
The aim of the Boy Scouts is to sup
plement the various existing educa-

ability in boys to do things for them
selves and others.
The method is summed up in the
term, "Scout Craft and is a combin-
alton of observation, deduction and
hardness, the ability to do Scout
craft which consists of first aid, life
saving, tracking. signaling, cycling,
nature study, seamanship and other
instruction. This is accomplished in
games and team play, and is pleasure,
not work for the boys. The only
equipment it needs is the out Of doors,
a group OF boys and a leader.
The work will be started in Devils
Lake during the early part Of the COM
ing year under the leadership of Rev.
G. L. Wallace who has been registered
Scout Master for this city.

An Question.

Munich Herald: The Herald be-
lieves that prohibition in North Da-
kota is an economic question. 1t is
not merely q question of right and
wrong and we are not in the class
that believes that drinking in itself is
necessarily wrong, although it often
becomes SO. 1t is not merely a ques-
ton of what effect on the wholesome
regard Of people for other laws the
acknowledgements of the prohibition
law will have. Is it. for the best econ
omic interests of the town, county and
state-prohibition enforced, or pigs in
every town grabbing all the change
the poor, irresponsible drinker. gets
hold of? The merchant who is afraid
a town without pigs, will die had
better consider this. The we]l-to-do
man who takes his occasional drink,
is not dependent on the pigs for his
supply. He can send for ID and have
it in his home for his personal use if
he wants to and 40 law prevents him.
He does not trade in a town because
there r pigs in it or not. On the
other hand the slave of the. liquor ha-
bit will becometan easy mark for the
kind of men usually. found in the
"pig' business" He will lose there
his last cent while the merchant either
gives him goods on credit or loses the
legitimate business he should have
had from him. To take a concrete
example: The Herald has had a GER
tain printer on it's force for the last
three months In that .times he has
earned about $l70. OF this money
about $65 has gone for board and
about S25 for clothes and not all OF
this would have been paid had not the
editor held it out. The remaining $50,
almost one-half, has all gone for Ii
quor. The man went without an over
coat all this time and needed several
other common necessaries of life which
he should have bought from our store
keepers. Besides that his drinking
lessened his efficiency and earning ca
pacity. Consider, Mr.. Merchant,
whether it would not have been to
your economic interests to have lent

Delight and pathos are inextricably
mingled with the thought of New
Years day. 1t is only a conventional
point of time; any other would do as
we'll. Every day closes an old year
and begins a new one, but for all we
cannot help feeling that this day,
which is agreed upon throughout
Christendom for the beginning of a
new year, is somewhat unique. The
pathos comes from the review of the
past, and from the sense that another
notch has been cut for us on the stick
