WOMAN'S CHRISTIAN TEMPER
ANCE UNION.
(Chloe l.. Butz.


The organization of this noble So
ciety was perfected at Cleveland, Ohio
November, 1874, and incorporated
March /, 1888.
The growth has been marvellous, be-
ing organized in every state and ter
ritory in the Union, including the Dis
trict Of Columbia, Alaska the Canal
Zone, Hawaii and the Philippines and
locally in 1900 towns and cities.
There are also a number of separate
state unions among the colored peo-
pie.
1t is organized in over so nations,
with a total membership of about half
a million. 1t is the largest society
composed exclusively of women and
conducted entirely by them. The basis
of membership and the relation of
each union to those of the state and
nation: Each member is required to
sign the pledge and pay the annual
membership dues, which vary in diff
ferent states. OF this amount GER
tain per cent is paid into the state
treasury, and from the state treasury
ten cents per member is paid into the |
treasury of the national organization. |
The national motto: For God and I
Home and Every Land
The badge, a knot of white ribbon.
1t was adopted in the convention of
1877, on motion of Miss Margaret /
Winslow. The white ribbon is sym
bolic not only of purity and peace, but
it includes all the correlated reforms
that center in the protection of the
home. At the noontide hour each
white ribboner the world over is ex-
pected to lift her heart to God in
prayer for His blessing on the work
and workers, and the overthrow of L
he liquor system and it allies. q

SOME QUESTIONS

Q. Is separator cream hard
er to churn than that skinned
in the old way?
Answer by G. L. Martin, pro-
fessor of Observation-Disclosures
the separator breaks up the glo-
bules of fat so small that they
are harder to bring together and
thus making churning difficult.
Q. What is the best way to
stack corn?
Answer by J. H. Shepherd, the
dean of agricultural department
Corn must be stacked in very
narrow ricks if put in stacks al
all. If the ricks are more than
ten feet wide, they are apt to
heat badly, even when the corn
seems to be entirely dry. If the
corn is shredded l would advise
mixing it with straw to prevent
heating. Shredded fodder is ex-

Body Of Charles Hoppe 10 Found
BY Boys at Fargo Last
saturday.

Charles Hoppe committed sui
eide about four o'clock last Sat-
urday afternoon by hanging him
self with a piece of strap in aid
coal shed at Fargo.
The body was found by sever
al boys shortly before six O'Clock
that evening and the boys repor-
ted their gruesome find to the DO
lice of that city.
Family difficulties are said to
be the cause for the deed but he
failed to leave any note of ex-
PLANTATION. Hoppe was divorced
from his wife and it is said this
fact had weighed heavily upon
his mind. He visited his former
wife's apartments Saturday af-
ternoon, and left it is said, after
quarrel. On several occasions
he had tried to patch the diff
culties between himself and his
wife but in this effort he was not
successful. Mrs. Hoppe had in
formed the police of his actions
and they were in search of him
when the body was reported to
have been found.
Hoppe was about IS years of
age and had been employed dur
ing the summer with contrac-
tors at Fargo.

BY ROBERT KENNETH MAC LEA,

New York, Aug. The prohibitive
tariff, revised upward by the Payne
Aldrich law. permits and fosters
wholesale frauds upon the American
consumer Of cotton goods.
Less than per cent Of the cotton
fabrics consumed in the United States
comes from abroad, because the pro.
tective duties have been made SO high
that importation is Improbable.
Yet fully one-third Of the cotton
piece goods going over retail counters
Is sold as IMPORTED" or under

! This deception 10 generally psrps.
tratsd upon the consumer for the pur.
pose Of obtaining exorbitant prices for
