kota and Minnesota, makes North
Dakota Ignite almost a prohibitive
product on the Minnesota and the
South Dakota markets.
With favorable rates between this
state and South Dakota and Mime
sofa, ii means that Minnesota will
give North Dakota Ignite a trial
next season as did the eastern cities
Of North Dakota last winter and
which proved worth tho experiment
and to a great degree helped to re-
lieve the coal famine which threat
ened such cities as Fargo, Grand
Forks, Wahpeton, Hillsboro and
Grafton.
1t has become practical certainty
that Minnesota and South Dakota
must during the coming fuel year
depend upon North Dakota Ignite,
and there is a heavy demand for this
popular fuel in eastern Minnesota,
and even In the twin cities. The
Gopher state does not care to face
the possibility Of anotI or "heatIess
Monday" siege OF coal conservation,
and it feels 1t can avoid this ordeal
If it can convince the federal fuel
administration Of its ability to pro-
vide itself with western Ignite with
out interfering with the eastern coal
supplies. South Dakota has a few
Ignite mines in it's northwestern
corner, but the production has not
been sufficient to date to make much
impression on the states Consump-
ton, and South Dakota will look
largely to its sister state for relief.

Finding Your Faults.

Perhaps you possess a charming grace but lack a beautiful complex ion. If the texture of your skin is coarse and rough you are in need of a remedy that will refine and soften it. The simplest way to bring about this change is to soften the skin by rubbing 1t well with a face cream. Then to bathe it carefully and after drying 1t with a soft towel apply the. following lotion: Elderfiower water ...-..1 ounce Rosewater .....--...... ounces Simple tincture benzofn. A ounce Fannie acid .............. 5 grains
 A saIlok skin is most unattractive and every effort should be made to re- store it to It's normal tclearness and transparency, The remedy most highly recommended for this purpose is "Honey Bleach" The formula for this excellent preparation is printed below:

How to Make the Most
 Of Your Points of Beauty
By LUCREZIA BORI The Famous Spa nish Prima Dom;

It is to be deplored that so many women vainly long for beauty when fair substitute for it is at their finger ends.
 You may not be able to change your features even with surgeons knife, but the power to change your expression is yours, and to correct the numberless defects you will find after taking an inventory of your faults and virtues. Not many women can be ravishing beauties, but there's scarce ly a woman who cannot beg raceful.
 If awkwardness is one of your de- fects, make up your mind to acquire grace and poise. You will gain mus | cular control Of your body, which leads to grace, by properly exercising. Few parsons are naturally graceful and the rest should follow a system atic course in exercise and dancing.

 Superfuous hair is a deadly foe to beauty. If there are only few hairs they may be pulled out with pair of tweezers or they may be removed by electrolysis.
