MORE MONEY THAN NEEDED
That is the Condition in North Da-
kota According to Twin City
Banking Figures.

North Dakota had, March 10, ST.
100000 more on deposit in one Min
neapolis bank than it had six months
ago, or August 10.
On the latter date North Dakota
had on deposit in round numbers ST.
100000 while March 10, this year the
banks of the state had on deposit in
the same city the sum Of $4,000 900
or just 1000. 900 more. This shows
that there is nor money in North
Dakota than there is call for.
August 10. last year. the state
had borrowed from the Minneapolis
bank the sum of $1,000, 600. while
March 10, this year, the state had
borrowed just 100000 or $780, 900
less than six months ago.
This showing 10 very much better
than any other state that has de-
posts in the Minneapolis bank. and
according to NJ. A. Baldwin. president
Of the Commercial bank of this city,
shows that North Dakota financially
is in the best possible condition.

The Useful Verb "To Get.r

 "I got on horseback within ten min utes after after got your letter. When l got to Canterbury I got chaise for town; but 1 got wet through before l got to Canterbury and l have got such cold as l shall not be able to get rid of in hurry l got to the treasury about noon, but first of all I got shaved and dressed I soon got into the secret of getting a memorial before the board, but 1 could not get an answer then; however, got intelli. gence from the messenger that l should most likely get one the next morning. As soon as got back to my inn l got my supper. When I got LID in the morning got my breakfast and then got myself dressed that I might get out in time to get an answer to my memorial. As soon as I got it l got into the first chaise and got to Canterbury by 3 o'clock, and about tea time l got home"

A Cooking Feat in the Air.

To cook potato pie at the top of 8 chimney three hundred feet high by means of the heat generated In the fires below would seem an impossible ask, yet such feat was on one occa- sion accomplished by John Faulkner, l famous Lancashire steeplejack
 The incident was the outcome of a wager between Faulkner and the man. ager of a Manchester gas works, who doubted Johns statement regarding the excessive heat.
 A large iron kettle was procured, and this, being filled with necessary in. gredients-sixty-six pounds in weight was hoisted to the summit of the huge chimney stack. Faulkner placed the receptacle on the outer and cool est side of the brickwork, but despite this, the contents were found to be thoroughly cooked in one hour and twenty minutes, or ten minutes less than the stipulated time
 Faulkner won his wager and the pie, which. 1t is said, was slightly burned at the bottom. was afterwards distributed among the poor of the district.-Bystande

Women Who Begin at 13 to Search for Pearls In the Coast
 Waters.

The pearl divers of Japan are wom. en. Along the coast of the Bay Of Ago and the Bay of Kokasho the thirteen and fourteen-year-old girls, after they have finished their primary school work, go to sea and learn to dive.
 They are in the water and learn to swim almost from babyhood and spend most of their time in the water except in the coldest season, from the end of December to the beginning of Febru- ary. Even during the most indictment of seasons they sometimes dive for pearls
 They wear special dress, white un- ierwear and the hair twisted up into hard knot. The eyes are protected by glasses to prevent the entrance of water. Tubs are suspended from the waist. A boat in command of a man is assigned to every five or ten women livers to carry them to and from the fishing grounds.
 When the divers arrive on the grounds they leap into the water at once and begin to gather oysters at he bottom. The oyters are dropped 1to tubs suspended from their waists. When the vessels are filled the divers Ire raised to the surface and jump into he boats. They dive to depth of rom five to thirty fathems without my special apparatus and retain their breath from one to three minutes.
 Their ages vary from thirteen to 'orty years and between twenty-five nd thirty-five they are at their prime. Oriental Review
