Sully's second expedition against the

The travelling men enjoyed the dis
tinction a year ago Of having one Of
the best times of the entire exposition
and creating the most fun and en-.
thusiasm. This year they will beat
their own record. What their plans
will be are not, of course, determined
as yet, but they will see to it that
there Is not a single dull moment of
the entire season.
The probable plans will include the
assembling CT the travellers in the
city Thursda- October 3, and a get
together meeting that evening. Fri
day and Saturday will be the days OF
the fun. A kangaroo court may b.
organized again, with the added at
traction of patrolmen having to do
night duty Friday night. The boys
have a neat little SUM in the treasury
and this will he used to good edvan-

and that afternoon there may possibly
be ball game between the Traven-

this year will probably be the appear

which is an organization of merit and

certain that Bismarck people and the

CONGRESSIONAL SITUATION

Bowbe.ls Tribune: For the first
time i'm the history of the state we
are to have three congressman from
as many districts. Burke county is
in the third district, and in this dis
trict there are several candidates out
for the Office of congressman, among
whom is Alfred Blaisdeu of Minot.
Mr.. Blaisdel is running on his past
record as public officer. He held
the Office of secretary of state here
for two terms and during that time he
gave North Dakota the cleanest, most
economical and in every way the best
record lit was possible for a man to
give. He has been a resident in the
state for great many years during
which time he has been in the busi-
ness Of law. real estate, abstracts OF
title, investments, etc., which gave
him just the kind of training neces-
sary to make him an ideal represen-
tative of the people in the western
portion OF the district. He knows our
needs, and his past record shows that
he knows how to get things for his
constituents.
Although there are two other candi-
dates for the same Office, Mr.. Blaisdell
is getting almost unanimous support
in that city. All the newspapers in
the Magic City have pledged him their
support, as have also majority Of the
papers lin the entire district Mr..
Blaisdeli is receiving good support in
all parts OF the district and it looks
very much to The Tribune as though
he was the man for the place.

WASHINGTON'S HUM0R.
A Dinner Invitation That Showed the

A Dinner Invitation That Showed the
Generals Genial Side.
In spite OF the general opinion to the
contrary, Washington was not an espe-
cially grave and austere man He had
a sense of humor and could make or
enjoy a joke as well as any one. From
Professor c. F. Holidays wit and
Humor of Colonial Days" Is taken this
letter. written to invite a friend. with
the ladies' of his family. to dine with
the general. There Is no date, but
there Is some reason to think that the
note may have been written from Val
ley Forge. 1t shows the grave and
burdened soldier in a pleasantly genial
light:
Since our arrival at this happy spot
we have had a ham. sometimes a Shout
der of bacon. to grace the head Of the
table, a piece Of roast beef adorns the
foot. and dish of beans or greens, al
most fmperceptible. decorates the cen
ter.
When the cook has a mind to cut q
figure. which | presume will be the
case tomo ROW, we have two beefsteak
pies or dishes Of crabs In addition. one
ON each side oe the center dish. divid-
ing the space and reducing the dis
lance between dish and dish to about
six feet, which without them would be
near twelve feet apart. or late he has
had the surprising sagacity to discov-
er that apples will make pies. and 1t
is a question If in the violence of his
efforts we do not get one of apples In
stead Of having both Of beefsteaks.
IF the ladies' can put up with such
entertainment and will submit to par
take of it on plates once tin, but now
iron mot become so by the labor of
scouring,. l shall be happy to see
them"

Good Ereckie Lotion,

For freckles there is a lotion which
is very good indeed. 1t consists of
chopped cucumbers or cucumbers cut
in slices with all the juice in them.
They are then bound upon the face in
such a way that the juice will dry on.
For freckled and chapped hands
there is a bath of witch hazel and Gu
cumber juice in equal parts. This can
be applied to the skin with a little
sponge. After it has been on fifteen
minutes it can be washed off with
soap and water. for there is something
unpleasant about the incest lotion
when it Is allowed to dry upon the
skin.
The summer skin is a matter Of much
anxiety, for in the summer all would
have a nice complexion, yet 1t is ex-
tremely difficult when the sunshine
brings its blemishes, and the very
winds are laden with tan and freckles

Rousseau on Show.

Rousseau created a sensation when
he visited England in 1166. Rousseau
and his Armenian Dress" wrote Lord
Charlemont, were followed by crowds
when he first arrived in London. and
as long as this species of admiration
lasted he was contented and happy.
Garrick not only gave a supper in his
honor. but played two characters spe.
cially to please him. Rousseau was
highly gratifed. but Mrs Garrick de
clared that she had never spent a more
unpleasant evening in her life. the phi
losopher being 50 anxious to display
himself and hanging over the front OF
the box so much that she was obliged
to hold him by the skirts of his Goa,
to prevent him from falling over into
the pit"

tired lines must be smoothed out and
the muscles Of the face braced up be-
