walls, corked, instead of in artistic
hagons with glass shoppers. This
crisis is due TO mobilization of glass
workers in the north of France, and
one Of its revelations is that the art
hagon has been representing a consid-
cradle part of the cost of perfumes.
But among fastidious women the per
fumes do not smell so sweet when
prosaically presented, and a result is a
new industry of collecting old
perfume bottles into which the es-

The reindeer fair held at Moor vik in March was success from start to finish. The natives them selves took complete charge of the work of entertaining the native visitors and appointed commit tees to look after their housing and feeding.
 An eating house was estao lished and meals were sold tor twenty five cents. Delegates from Nome, Icy Cape, Buckland' Selawik, Kotzebue, Noatak, ki- yalina, Wainwright, Point Bar row and Noorvik attended the fair.
 Various contests were held and prizes were awarded to the Win ners. A good time was enjoyed by all and many of the natives are still singing Reindeer Fair, one of the songs sung during the exercises.
 Aside from a few suggestions by Mir. Replogel, the government teacher, the whole affair was handled and managed by the na- tives themselves and was very successful. The bureau of educa- tion and the missionaries deserve great credit for the good results that have been obtained during the comparatively short time they have been teaching these people
 Among the guests attending the fair were Superintendent Walter Shields, of Nome, Dr Nichols and Milton White from Kotzebue, Clinton Replogel and wife and son from Kivalina, MT Evans from Sewalik, MT. Ausley from Noatak, MT. Gudmundson of Nome, Mr. Coffin from Candle Chas. Evern. Pete 1versick and Deputy Marshal O'Reiley from Kiana.

ATTRACTS BUSINESS MEN.

Mr.. Hughes has not tried to scare
anybody, but has merely portrayed the
errors Of the present administration
and set forth certain principles on
which the affairs of the country should
be managed in the future.
There is a political logic in his por-
trayal, the elimination of which in the
mind Of the voter is expressed by the
frequent remark:
''He is the kind Of man we want to
steer US through"
This has been said by many a bust
ness man. The qualities seen in Mr..
Hughes are poise, strong, sane mind,
sincerity and a willingness to sacrifice
life, physical or political, to the good
Of the country. Nor is there any
question as to the quality Of nerve to
meet the emergencies Of the four years
beginning March 4, 1917.

FARMERS SIZE UP HUGHES
AS "PRETTY GOOD FELLOW

Fargo, n. D.-Charles e. Hughes
campaigned for the first time among
the sturdy farmers of the eastern part
Of North Dakota and left behind him
the reputation of being pretty good
fellow"
He was forced to undergo a critical
scrutiny before the verdict was given.
Mr.. Hughes preached the doctrines
of government efficiency, Americanism,
tariff as protection to the farmers and
preparedness, and in each instance won
applause, despite the fact that the
farmers are not the strongest advO-
Gates of the last named issue.
They cheered for preparedness the
loudest when Mr.. Hughes told them
that it meant not militarism, but abil-
ity to uphold national honor.
AS they cheered for Mr.. Hughes one
broad shOuldered old farmer said, Its
because there's something about him
that makes you believe he's telling the
truth
