CAN YOU SWIM j?
Every Woman Should Be Able to
Teach Her Children to Swim.

1t ought to be every woman'S afnbi-
ton when summer comes not only to
learn to swim herself, but to see that
her children learn to swim and so less
en- the possibility of accidents from
drowning in her own family. No one
who does not know how to swim ought
to get into a canoe or rowboat, and if
she does perchance risk her life in 4
launch she ought first to think of the
responsibility her lack of knowledge of
swimming puts on her companions.
Children should not be forcibly
thrown into the water. If they natu-
rally fear it their fear should be over
come in some way Sometimes an ex-
hibition of swimming on the part of a
strong man will inspire them with a
desire to learn the art. Sometimes a
little bribing will help gain the desired
result. Stories Of great swimmers, too,
help inspire children With wish to
learn to swim we'll Cardinal Merry
del Val is a good swimmer and once
rescued some one from drowning;
Prince Leopold of Bavaria is a royal
patron of the sport; Jack London, the
story writer, can swim as we'll as ne
can write, and many other famous men
have had interesting experiences while
/ they were swimming.
| A little girl can often have her inter
est in swimming stimulated if her
swimming costume is attractive. For
instance, a bright cap of waterproof
/ silk or one of the red, blue or green
rubber caps frilled about the face
with carriers OF frilled rubber tc
match, might prove attractive to a lit
\ tie girl who is timid about entering the
water. The thought Of wearing tho
/ pretty cap would keep her mind occu
/ pied so that she would forget her nat
ural dislike of the water. After a few
/ lessons almost every one becomes en-
! thusiastic about learning to swim. |
is the first few lessons that are diff
cult. and it is during these that a chile
/ sometimes needs coaxing.

IT'S VERY THRIFTY
To Know How to Utilize Leftover En-
velopes.

To Know How to Utilize Leftover En-
VeIopes.
Every woman who buys her station
cry by the box or in even quantities
of paper and envelopes finds that
when her supply of paper is exhausted
she still has on hand anywhere from
two to six packages of envelopes. This
is, Of course, due to the fact that her
letters are usually two or three sheets
in length, while only one envelope is
used.
These extra envelopes can be utilized
by transforming them into the CORE
spondence cards so popular nowadays.
Trim off one sixteenth of an inch from
each edge Of the envelope, throwing
away the back and flap. The trimming
can be done with the scissors if WELD
ed by steady hand but a mechanical
trimmer such as photographers use
will make q neater job. A printer will
do it for almost nothing. The resulting
card will be just enough smaller
than the envelope to fit into it easily,
and if the paper is a good heavy
quality the card really looks very well.
If you have enough of these leftover
envelopes to warrant the trouble, the
improvised correspondence cards may
be imprinted with the house address
or the monogram used on your regular
stationery. They serve nicely for in
formal notes, hasty messages, mail
orders, and so on.

Boston tea party was repeated on
miniature scale in the home of Harry
Huck, 6O33 South State street, on
July 10, and the details came to light
in Judge Uhlir's court.
Mrs. Huck had a very slight
scratch on her forehead, also another
on her arm. Harry Huck had a little
mark on his face and a smaller one
on his arm. Those were the battle
scars.
81 asked him to bring me a half
a pound of tea, your honor, and he
never brought it. He told me could
do without tea, and 1 said would
send one of the children to the store,
and then he called me a lot of vile
names, and he hit me on the head
and hurt me- on the arm, and he
threw me out of the house, and lock-
the door on me, and tore all my
clothes up, and got the clothes right
here in this suitcase-this was prin-
cess slip that / made myself and he
didn't like it because it was fancy
and my friends"
The prosecuting attorney stopped
the flow of rhetoric. You needn't
take all those clothes out" he said.
your husband called you those
names and hit you, did he?" Judge
Uhlir asked.
Eyes, sir, and he called me vile
names, and he hit me on the head
and he threw me out"
What have you got to say about
this?" the judge asked Harry.

fidingly. "You see, it was this way.

hands to prevent her hitting me and
she lost her grip on the frying pan.
Then she picked up a big stick-and
then she went out the kitchen door
and locked it after her"
Did you say the dreadful things

W0MANS HOME.
FORMER M.NoT POLICEMAN PUTS
OUT FIRE ON THE
RESERVATION.

John Kane, Until recently mem
Ter OF the Minot police force, and now
a homesteaGtr on the Fort Berthold
reservation saved the home OF Miss
Mildred HObe, also nomestcader,
from being destroyed by fire early
Wednesday morning.
Miss IIobe, who is the niece Of the
Norwegian cC'452i in St. Paul. and
whose home on the reservation Is
only short distance from that Of Mr.
Kane, was awakened 1T o'clock in
the morning by fire which had ignited
the roof of her house.
She ran to the cabin of Mr.. Kane
calling fer help, and the former po-
liceman made couple Of hurled
trips 10 the nearby slough, armed with
a bucket, and quickly succeeded In
extiuguishing the flames.
A defective chimney was the
cause Of the blaze, and if it had
not Eeen for Mr.. Kane'a prompt aid
the entire house would probably have
been destroyed.
