/. Get out of your bed in the
morning with nothing but good
will in your heart toward all
people.
=. Divorce yourself entirely
from all business cares for the day.
3. Give cheerful greeting to
every one you meet, and especially
to you own family.
4. Remember the dumb brute,
ang give it a little Christmas cheer.
/ 5. Go to church! Don't apply
what the minister says to your
neighbor. Take it to yourself and
profit from it if it makes you vince.
6. Make up your mind that you
will spend one year in an earnest
effort to be a little better than
you ever were before.
\ {. Eat your portion of the tur-
key only, and let the rest Of the
family have at least smell.
s, Do this and you will mot be
annoyed with indigestion after
your Christmas dinner.

the glowing descriptions Of his
merchandise and the prices that he
puts down in plain figures often
higher than the local merchant would
ask for the same or better article
but there is a magic about naming
the price that coaxes the dollarsinto
their Golfers. The mail order house
demands the cash in hand for several
weeks before you receive the goods;
it does not pay a cent OF taxes in
Mellette county or in the state of
South Dakota; it does not contribute
to the support of the church or the
schools Of the community, to tie
building Of roads or bridges or other
community benefits; it does not en-
hance the value of your homestead to
build up Chicago, Omaha or Kansas
City, but if you spend all the money
that you have been accustomed TO
sending to the mail order concerns
here in Wood it would make this
better town, the merchants would be
enabled to carry better stocks, it
would make money more pletifuli II
this community and prosperity would
be with us. The local merchant pays
his just share of county and state
tax, he contributes to the support of
the church and schools, he helps to
infDrOVp thp roads and build hridUac
he delivers the goods to you before
he asks you to pay for them. If he
prospers the town prospers. and when
the town prospers and grows it en-
hances the value of your homestead
This is really very serious matter
and should receive your earnest and
thoughtful consideration in making
up your New Years resolutions.

More Women Suicides.

The development of the woman's movement in Germany carries with it a remarkable increase in suicides by women. While the ratio of suicides of men remained constant during the 20 years ended with 1912. the number of women suicides increased from S.3 to 106 per 100000 of the woman popu
 lation. While there are doubtless many causes for the increase, tho chief cause is attributed to the fact
The Sentinel=record., 1914-07-25
that women have gone into workshon

that women have gone into workshop and factory, mercantile employments and the professions. much more ex. tensively than 20 years ago. They have shouldered larger responsibilities and have exposed themselves to great. CT economic and social dangers. That the cause is largely an economic one is evident from the great increase of woman suicides at Berlin, where near ly forty-eight womon take their own lives to e-'eY 100 men.

Many wounded German soldiers who
were sheltered in the cathedral were
