Primary Law Ambiguous.

Deadwood While interest in poll
tics in this part OF the state at present
is at low ebb. the Richards primary
bill, adopted at the November cleo
ton is still the subject of much spec
ulation by those who will have to par
ticipate under its terms in the 1914
March primary election. Local pOliti-
clans who have been carefully study
ing the measure. declare that it is
doubtful if any congressman in South
Dakota can be legally nominated un
der the law.
The Richards law was originally
drafted when the state elected two
ngressmen-at-large Later the state
was redistrlcted, after the cclgres
sional reapportionment. and the state
now has three congressman elected
by districts. Mr. Richards in revis
ing his prospective law, apparently
failed to take into consideration this
change and it became a law with a
clause providing for the nomination OF
two t-laree. 1t is not
improbable that unless this feature Of
the primary law is amended at an ex-
ira session Of the legislature, for
which several newspapers in the state
are clamoring. the names of no can
didate for congress can be legally
placed on the primary ballot next
March.

LITTLE BEAUTY CHATS
Bx BLANCHE sEACor
MOULDING THE MIND OF A CHILD.

It has always been to my under standing, a matter of utmose tnpor- tance that the mind of a young child should be sensib1y and painstakingly educated to what in later years will be insttnctive beauty sense.
 But in doing this, it must be born in mind that nothing ds easier or more detrimental to the flexible 7intelli gence than er-emphasis. A child whose little mind gives the thought of being lovely undue importance is as totally spoiled as the other extreme.
 And yet it is possible to take a child, and, by-cafeful, sensible, matter ~of-fact little talks, teach it that by do- ing this or by not doing that, it can be more beautiful when it is older. Do not put the emphasis upon beauty for beauty's sake Put it, rather, upon beauty as the legitimate reflection of good within, and a source of pleasure to those around one. Do not encourage the child to consider that only those who are beautiful are good-but teach it to see beauty in the homliest countenance.
 All of this. should be done without The heart alone should be consulted in these beauty talks to children. Some day, hope to write some myself.
 The most crying evil, and the one that most seriously combats a nor mai, childish outlook upon beauty, is the dress question. The little girl in my picture will probably never regain a sensible, wholesome normal view of herself, because she is fancifu1Iy more so than thousands of other chil dren whose mothers strive to make them appear ism art'' A child is never smart-it is beautiful.

Two Ardmore young men agree to
take 5000 worth of the interurban
stock each. Carter county has 800
lust such men and when they come
forward with their stock subscriptions
work can be begun upon the inter

the county who will take much more
than this amount and others less. but
in the aggregate there is no doubt
put that the stock can be raised,
The Dan Patch road in Minnesota

man who purchased the stock receiv-
ed a dividend upon his investment and
the Dan Patch road has been extend
ed from time to time until it is grow

purchase of interurban stock is the
beginning of great enterprise in

mean the doubling of the taxable
values of the county.
