VELVET REQUIRES
MUCH ATTENTION

Velvet is in high fashion. And velvet
shows the dust. Two facts that some
how have to be reconciled to each other.
The only way to keep velvet looking
we'll is to give it careful and continuous
attention. To begin with. buy velvet Of
a good quality, and whenever possible
get the sort that water will not spot.
Even II it is to be used for a house
gown, where it will never run the risks
of raindrops, it may easily be spotted
with a drop of water from glass, or
with a drop that drips from the fingers
when they emerge from fngerbowl or
a washbasin.
Velvet never should be brushed with
a stiff. coarse brush. The pile is easily
injured-in fact, the short, soft threads
that make it UP often can easily be
pulled from their foundations with the
finger nails, and a coarse brush is al
most sure to loosen them. "A soft velvet
brush is the sort to use

Do You See Best in People.

Winter. with all its possibilities for
gossip, is close at hand. Some of US have
been too far away from temptation to
talk about the neighbors and their do
ings for months. And in that time we
have doubtless learned to dread the Cos
siping atmosphere that surrounds US part
of the time in winter.
Every woman ought to make it her
duty to see the best in others. Every
one Is two persons sometimes half a
dozen. And every one, almost. is what
you want him or her to be. If you are
looking for goodness, you generally lind
it. 1t is almost always the person with
happy disposition who thinks that
others are generous and happy and good
and delightful. The gloomy man finds
the occupants of gloomy world morose:
Hamlet thought everything was out or
joint A few things were out of joint to
be sure, but he was more out of joint
than were his surroundings.
It is necessary to talk; anyway. it is
delightful to do so. Therefore, it Is, to a
certain extent, necessary to gossip. That
| is to say. 1t is necessary to talk about
other persons. 1t is not necessary, how,
ever, to say spiteful or malicious things
about others. and if every one stopped
saying these things there would be much
more happiness and much less trouble
| in the world.
| Don't repeat things told YOU in con-
| fidence. And don't repeat anything some
| one told you that was told to her obvi-
| ously not to be told to you. A complt-
Gated sentence. this, but 1t contains good
advice. For instance, Mrs. A. says to
| Mrs. B., Il wouldn't have Mrs. c. know
| this for anything in the world. but saw
| her Norah shaking the rugs out of the
| drawing room windows, and you know
| she Is SO particular"
| Then Mrs. B. blithely goes to see Mrs.
C. and purposely repeats Mrs. As con-
versation. A pretty little situation this
| is, that has many variations, all of them
unfortunate.
Women sometimes ascribe wrong mo-
| tives to other women for things they do.
| This may be a matter of jealousy, and 1t
may be a matter of pure righteousness,
sometimes. Fortunately. it is not a usual
, happening. But always weigh your words
before you utter them.
You yourself may understand situa-
ton which you are describing. The
greedy ears in which your story falls
may belong to some one who is just wait
ing for bit OF information that may be
misconstrued.

One of the most valuable papers
which belonged to this file was the IL
cense of Captain Grant Marsh as cap
tain on the river.
The most interesting part of the
collection were many personal letters
soaked and resoaked by the rains Of
time. These told the story OF the
many unknown men making their
way in the frontier. One Of the men
wrote that he was on parole from

had come west to get work and were
constantly changing from one steam
boat to another until the letters could
not reach them. These letters were
a living witness to the frontier west
and early traffic out of Bismarck.
They will be valuable historical papers
for the society. The society is listing
them and filing them away. Carrots
and warehouses all w the state are
rich in papers and documents which
are valuable alone for historical re-
search. Curator Fish is anxious to

Ryder, N. D.. April 26.-Prairie
fires have done a lot of damage In
this vicinity. particularly on the res.
ervation that appears to have been
swept in various places. 1t is said a
number of claim shacks were burnt,
Greater loss lies in the flax and hay
stacks destroyed, and in the hay area
swept that will not now produce this
season. A Ryderite who suffered con-
siderable loss is Ben Rosenberg, losing
somewhere around sevcnty-five tons
of hay easily worth six dollars a ton.
Chances are 1t will cost him $40 a ton
to replace, running up his lose to
$3.50.
Another Ryderite to sustain loss
was e. C. Schiewek, who lost his barn.
harnesses, grain, an Angora goat and
other things OF his homestead three
miles east of town. Over and above
5000 insurance on the barn, he figures
his loss at $500.
