Do you realize that mentally you
may become stiff jointed also If you
do not exercise your brain and keep
it active?
It is a well known fact that people
who only read trashy novels soon lose
the ability to digest really intellec-
tual writing. If you never memorize
anything, your memory becomes
crippled just as your limbs would be
if you never used them.
Every time that you play a piece
Of music on the piano, c~arelessly
making mistakes, these mistakes form
something like groves in your brain,
and you are more likely to commit
them the next time.
Our faults like our virtues are q
question Of habit, and this is why
it pays to cultivate the sort Of an in
dividuality which is pleasing, and
which includes as well a brisk and
active mentality. :,
The first requisite to success is to
be cheerful and magnetic. This is
usually the case when the brain is
active and interested in the worth
while things of life. There are
very few unhappy, soggy, ~personali'
ties among the women who r en-
gagged in interesting work building
up their features and improving
their minds. Ambition is the great

have known girls to drop years from
their looks once they had an object
in life.
After you give yourself a worth
while interest you will find yourself
losing all desire to exhibit those cat
ty traits which are one Of the prin
cipal barriers to a woman's success

latter every time.
What is more, I would wager that
any happiness she would be more
lasting, for her admirers would stick
to her longer, and her friends would
never grow tired of her but only be-
come fonder of her as the years pas
on.
Few things are more pathetic than
the m with only beauty to re-
commend her, when she grows old
and faded and has nothing in the way
of charm to take it's place. You see
dozens Of them who think they can
fool Father Time by gliding their hair
and rouging and calcimining their
compilations, then they wear sixteen
year old models and mince along the
street, thinking they can deceive ev-
eryone into thinking them young once
more.
These same women are truly stupid
(but of course you would know that,
or they would never resort to such
silly subterfuges) they never have
anything interesting to say and their
conversation swings between gossip
and dress.
The wise girl cultivates a charming
personality, and keeps her mind from
rusting while she is young, so she
will have something besides looks to
fall back upon when her beauty be-
gins to wane.

Complaints Are
already Beginning
Many Grain Concerns In
State Have Made
Is Cents
DOUBLE 1NSMARGIN
Permanent Ruling May
Be Blocked By
Courts

Fargo.-Six cents per bushel is the
maximum profit allowed elevator COM
panies in North Dakota by the recent
order issued by DR.. E. F. Ladd, chief
state grain inspector and head of the
grain inspection department. The
order is now in effect and grain buy
ers have up to Dec. % to file protests.
Yesterday DR.. Ladd received a
number of protests and he has mott
fed them that they will be given an
early hearing. Unless these profess
tants a show that the margin of
six cents per bushel is unfair the
present tentative order will be made
permanent, DR.. Ladd said yesterday.
For Farmers Protection
"This order has been issued to pro-
tect the farmers of the state against
p%rofiteering on the part of the local
grain buyers" said DR.. Ladd. "The
fact that six cents per bushel has
been set as the maximum does not
mean that all elevators will be al
lowed to charge that margin of profit
nor that some elevators may not
be allowed to charge more if they
can show that they are unable to
do business at a profit of six cents
a bushel.
1--WE have conducted a statewide
investigation and have ascertained
that the average margin for the state
now is CTS cents per bushel. Some
elevators are at present doing profit
able business at three cents margin
while cases were found where ele-
vators made a clear profit of more
than rs cents per bushel. 1t is to
protect the farmers against those
p%rofteering that the present
order was issued"
Double Old Charge
DR.. Ladd said yesterday that six
cents per bushel is double the mar
gin the elevators were allowed for
merly. He explained that by six
cents margin is meant what the ele-
vators would be allowed to charge
after paying the freight to the term
inal elevator and the cost Of handling
it at the terminal. The six cents
is to cover the cost of operating the
local elevator and profit on the in
vestment.

IDAHO GOLD & RUBY WILL
SOON START GOLD WASHING

Boundary county mining men are
anxiously waiting for the tryout of
the Idaho Gold and Ruby mine at
LENA, which is promised by ]. M.
Schnatterly to take place not later
than April l. In a recent letter to
stockholders Mr.. Schnatterly advises
that no further calls will be made
on the stockholders and that the
canal is finished and the hydraulic
machinery necessary is installed.
For Is years Mr.. Schnatterly has
been promising and developing the
Idaho Gold and Ruby mine. During
all of that time he has never lost
faith in the ultimate accomplishment
of his one aim of life-to develop
the biggest placer mine in the world.
The main difficulty has been to
finance the proposition, as it is
claimed that more than $1,000 have
been collected and spent in the work,
while the chief physical difficulty
has been the driving of the big ditch
to furnish the necessary water for
hydraulic work. Much of this i'm
mense ditch has been driven through
solid rock The water is taken out of
Boulder creek six miles from the site
OF the sluices and concentration. To
drive the canals two steam shoyels
had to be purchased and to furnish
the necessary lumber saw mill
with capacity Of 10000 feet a dav
was built. Schnatterly SAYS that the
canal will furnish 10000 miners in
'ches which, from head of over 400
feet, will feed five "giant" MOBILES
which will wash the sand bar into
the creek and on down to the sluice
boxes. The creek has been tested
and is, said avrage yearly a flow
Of $4,000 miners inches and according
to Schnatterly, supplies sufficient
water to enable the paint to work all
the year round.
In the case Of ali good things
there is always a pessimistic feature
present, and Idaho Gold and Ruby is
no exception to the rule. Some ex-
prlnced placer miners who have Wis
tied the property, while thy admit
that the ground is rich in gold state
that, In their opinion, most of the
gold is of the fine type known as
Hour gold, which is very difficult to
save.
According to those who take the
pessimistie view, the present equip
ment' while modern in every respect,
will not save the fine gold, which
they state is too light and flaky and
which they allege, will be washed
directly through the sluice boxes

and on down the stream without
dropping to the bottom Of the boxes
But there is another set of men
who claim to know that a very large
amount of the gold occurs in rood
sized nuggets and that there is no
danger but that the values saved will
amply reward the big expenditure for
installation. Added to this is the
fact that modern methods of concen-
trauon are to be applied, and the
values will come-not from gold
alone-but from rubies and pIati-
mum, both of which are known to oc-
cur in the same gravel with the gold.
The question in the minds of many
people, not only in Boundary county.
Dut throughout the Northwest and
other parts of the United States as
well, is will the owners of Idaho Gold
and Ruby stock form the next crowd
or millionaires, or will the big bub-

be for naught?
