H DIFFERENCE.
Description Of Two Costumes Which
Show Smart Effects.


Between a black and white combina-
ton and a blending of white and
black the difference is-from the ex-
pert modiste's viewpoint-almost as
great as that between a horse chestnut
and a chestnut horse. In nine cases
out of ten the black and white mix
ture is the smarter and. it goes with
out saying. the more serviceable. IT'LL
ity. however. Is rarely considered by
the type Of woman who affects magpie
costumes. She is seeking an effect
which will maintain-if not enhance
her reputation for dressing In an in
dividual manner.
III such a woman fancies that she
has already rung every possible change
upon her favorite combination she is
vastly mistaken. for she has never as
yet worn a skirt TERED with three
white satin ruffles. each one headed
with a narrow knife plating in black.
The plaitings match the material Of a
souple satin skirt. and the bias cut
white ruffies of four inch width. set
far apart between hips base and hem.
show only at front and back. since at
either side they vanish beneath I'M
trimmed cores falling from the waist
band and breaking the line of a deep
yoke.

TRUNK DOLL HOUSE.

Take the lid from an old trunk. or
ask your father to do it for you. Then
cover the trunk on the outside with
thick dark colored wall paper. Then
cover the inside with the same kind Of
paper, or. If you wish. u lighter kind.
Cut pieces of wood the right size to fit
into the doll house. as many as you
wish to have it stories high and glue
these into place. Cut some pretty
scenes from a magazine and paste on
the walls where you want the windows
to be. You can put in furniture If you
want to and also some five cent dolls.
If you do not want your doll house so
large make it out of a box instead Of
a trunk.

A Place For the Boys and Girls
BOY SCOUT GAME.
"kick and Run" Is Played With Foot
ball or Basketball.

This is a boy scout game and is play
ed in a clearing or open field with a
regular association football or basket
ball. One scout takes his position in
the clearing. and the rest seek cover
as near as possible. With a scoutmas-
ter acting as umpire. the ball is rolled
into the open space and the scout in
side Immediately kicks 1t out and rush
es out TO tag any other scout he can
find and catch. but directly the ball is
kicked back into the clearing he must
return and kick II out. The umpire
watches the ball and as soon as 1t
ONE TO a standstill inside the clear
ing blows his whistle to indicate the
fact. While the one scout Is returning
TO kick it out the others may change
their positions or seek fresh hiding
places.
The scouts who are caught remove
their scarfs or wind a white hand
kerchief around one arm and then help
their captor to catch other scouts.
They must not kick the ball. but must
return to the clearing each time the
whistle is blown. The winner is the
scout who IL caught last. In an open
field the clearing" Is indicated by a
white mark on the grass DIT by corner
posts and scouts have TO elude cap
ture more by lodging than by seeking
cover.
AS n variation successive patrols
may "hold' the clearing and endeavor
to capture the rest of the troop in the
shortest possible time. The patrol
leader only is allowed TO kick the ball
out Of the clearing. The winning pa
troll Is that which takes the shortest
time. In this variation the scouts who
are caught do not take any further
part in the game.-Scouting.

The Primary Fact About War.

We sometimes think that the distin-
gushing characteristic Of war is the
killing and manning of men. but 1t is
evident that this Is not the real dis
tinction, for men are killed and MAIN
ed in time Of peace. The essential and
the one marked difference is this. that
during war a nation Is a society,
whereas in peace it is an aggregate of
individuals. So true Is this, indeed.
that If a denizen from some other
world acquainted with u normal ac-
t~ivities during peace should visit US
when we are al war he would have
difficulty in recognizing in this smooth
ly moving, harmonious unit the disor-
ganized weller Of yesterday. Compar-
ed with the spirit that animates a So
ciety at war, the disintegration that
inevitably ensues when the sword Is
laid aside is in all practical respects
like the dissolution which sets In in
the body of a man when the spirit has
taken it's fight.-"The World Storm
and Beyond" by Edwin Davies Schoon-
maker. in Century Magazine.

For wear with the lingerie gowns
some large filmy hat of black tulle OF
fine net with one single pink rose or a
little cluster of old time flowers would
be useful. With this costume might
be included a Powered parasol.
Evening gowns must be short, must

pair of white colonial pumps for after
noon and at least two pairs of white
satin slippers for evening must not be
overlooked.
A light and a dark sweater either of
silk or soft wool must be included In
the 1915 summer wardrobe. There are
smart sports coats. too. the dark blue

The average girl would require at
least two negligees. n simple one for
the bath and another of crepe de chine

not be forgotten.

THERE was once a principally

NHERE was once n ~principality
called Idlewild. the prince OF
which died, leaving only one
daughter. Narcissa. She be-
came the sovereign. Narcissa from her
earliest youth had been very studious.
The principality OF Idlewild was very
like those of Italy during thai period
when great poets and artists fiourished
and the practical gave place to the sen
timental.
Shortly after the coronation of the
new sovereign the prime minister was
replaced by a poet whose verses were
setting the Idlewildeans crazy. This
change was followed by the replace
ment or the secretary of war by a lady
who had made a great reputation as a
reproducer OF Greek festal dances.
Then was the portfolio of finance Civ
en- to a man whose performances on
the violin had often moved audiences
to tears. The minister of the interior
was replaced by a woman whose reel
tations were considered marvellous.
Thus did Princess Narcissa replace a
practical cabinet by an artistic one.
Many Of the people were delighted
with the new managers Of affairs of
state. but a few shook their heads and
p~rophesied that the new departure
would not be successful.
The new cabinet had hardly been
formed when King Wolfgang Nv. of
T~essebianca sent a deputation to Idle
wild asking for the repayment of a
long standing debt due him by the
p~rincipality. The prime minister re.
ceiyed the diplomats. addressing them

Elnbertson + Olson Make
Deal for New Quarters

The firm of Embertson & Olson, 10.
cal agents for the Ford, have consum-
mated a deal with Frank Towne
whereby they secure the Towne build
ing on the right of way at the corner
of Fifth avenue and Main street.
Their volume of business demands
a big increase for next year. At this
time they are unable to get enough
cars to supply a small percentage of
customers. Before they take posses
sion the building will be remodeled
and enlarged. The location is an ideal
one for garage, and with improved
facilities the firm expects to be able to
take care of much more business than
is possible at their present location.
Mr.. Towne will close up his business
this fall, and has not yet decided what
he will do after he turns over the
building to the new owners.

Metropolitan Bakery's

The Metropolitan bakery and con-
fectionery made big strike in their
formal opening Saturday, when more
than 400 ladies of Valley City partook
of the refreshments. which were
served.
When Morrissey & Hanson took hold
of the place some weeks ago they de-
monstrated their uptodateness by
thoroughly renovating it, until now it
is Respondent in new paint and paper.
while a arrangement of the fixtures
adds greatly to the appearance. The
use of more lights is another improve
ment that improves it wonderfully.
The improvement is by no means
confined to the looks of the establish
ment. The bakery outtt is thorough
ly uptodate, with good equipment
for candy making. The ladies who
attended Saturday were charmed by
the splendid display of bake goods and
the Metropolitan will undoubtedly do
big business as result of their en-
terprise.

Engine Thrown on Him
When Boiler Exploded

Langdon, N. D., Sept 1S.-Beaton
Mcdowell, aged 30, was killed yester-
day when his threshing engine ex-
ploded. Mcdowell, standing on the
tender of his engine when the explos-
ion occurred, was thrown back against
the water tank, his back being broken
by the impact. AS he fell to the
ground, the engine hurtled back, one
of the tractors driving wheels pinning
both his legs to the ground. The main
force of the explosion was out of the
front of the engine, and sent the ma
chine backwards. For ten minutes,
fully conscious, suffering while work
men attempted to release him. Death,
however, relieved his sufferings be-
fore the men were able to free him.
The machine was being used on the
Gautche farm, about nine miles north
east of Langdon, when the accident
happened. One other man was slight
ly injured when the drive belt was
thrown off. The explosion started a
fire in the straw stack, but the sepa-
rator was pulled to safety. Mcdowell

The shooting occurred shortly after

over threshing account, was said to
have been the cause.

farm house by way Of the old road
which had been in use for more than
80 years when Norby arrived on the
