Orange Blossoms and Brides.

Various theories have been given
regarding the use Of orange blossoms
as bridal ornaments. The Gus
tom is supposed to have been brought
to Europe by the Crusaders from the
East, the Saracen brides being accus-
toned to wear orange wreaths at
their marriage. To this objection was
raised that although the orange tree
was brought to England as early as
1890, 1t. was long before there was
any real cultivation of it even In
greenhouses. A second theory Is that
orange blossoms came to be worn by
brides on their marriage because they
were not only scented but also were
rare and costly, and so within the
reach Of only the noble and rich, that
indicating the bride had to be Of high
rank. A third is that orange bridal
wreaths had their origin in Spain,
where oranges have been cultivated
for centuries. Thence the fashion
passed to France, and by e of
French millinery was spread to other
lands. .E.-. I.

Fish Comfortable Under Ice.

BY the way, says a writer IN the
Kansas City Star, the water never
gets colder than about 80 degrees, be-
low the ice. So no matter how cold
the day, and no matter how thick the
ice upon the stream or lake, the fishes
are enjoying a temperature of about
80 degrees, and they move about in
the water and gather supplies very
well at that temperature. Through
the clear ice n may see fish with
their backs against 1t, where the tenn
perature must be so degrees, and If
you strike the ice Immediately above
them with the back of an az, or a
sledge hammer, you will kill the fish.
The conclusion does the business and
the fish will turn up it's white belly
against the ice. A dead fish floats
with it's belly upward, always. It IS a
common enough thing In some regions
for boys to kill fish through the Ice,
and then to cut a hole and get them
out.

IOWA WOMAN WELL
: AND HAPPY AGAIN
Says Tanlac Brought Her Perfect
Health After Four years
OF Suffering

"Since I began taking Tanlac I am
enjoying perfect health in every way
and have gained ten pounds in weight,
said Mrs. Mary Taylor, r. F. D. No.
4, Marion Iowa.
"For four years I had suffered
from stomach trouble" said Mrs.
Taylor. my appetite vas very poor
and even the little I did manage to
eat caused me intense suffering. At
ter every meal I became so badly
nauseated I could seldom retain a
thing. I would bloat up with gas un-
til I could hardly breathe and my
heart would palpitate Sc fearfully I
often became frightened. My nerves
were in such bad condition I could
hardly get any sleep at all, and for
a long time I had been in such a
badly rundown, weakened condition
Il could not do my homework. l suf-
fered with such terrible headaches
they almost drove me distracted and
at times I had such awful dizzy, fain-
ty spells I could hardly stand up. In
fact I could not hold out much long
err unless I got something to help me.
"I had heard so much about the
good Tanlac was doing others I de-
cided to give it a trial, and now, al
though I have only taken four bot
ties, I have a splendid appetite, eat
just anything I want and everything
agrees with me perfectly. I never
have those terrible headaches now,
and those awful dizzy, fainty spells
never trouble me any more. My nerves
are in so much better condition I
can sleep like a child all night long.
I have also regained my lost strength
and feel so good all the time my
homework is actually a pleasure to
me-"
Tanlac is sold in Bottineau by s.
Sigurdson, in Landa by J.H.Johnson
and by leading druggists everywhere.

BELONG TO HOLIDAY SEASON
Christmas Festivities Would Not Be
Complete Without the Holly and
the Mistletoe.

Several thousand tons of holly as
well a. hundreds Of tons Of mistletoe
are shipped. over the railroads each
year before the opening Of the holi-
day season. The mistletoe is placed
b sDan Deeha0Ge Desoaoe II = easy
to break of the tiny white bells, and
the plant IL more rare and costly.
Holly abounds all over the world,
over 100 species having been deter
mined, but only II varieties are to be
found in the United States. The finest
American species of holly is the Hex
Opaca, but the mountain holly is also
a choice variety. The English holly
has a sturdier leaf, and a more vivid
and lustrous green. The wood Of the
holly is very hard and smooth In the
grain, and is almost equal to box
wood for engraving purposes, while
it's leaves are the emblem Of fore
thought because of the protection CIV
en- to the buds by the defensive
thorns.
The. holly, however, is not so high
~ priced for the Christmas season as
the mistletoe, which is rare, delicate
and beautiful and the source of many
ancient Druidic legends. In the Unit
ed States mistletoe is chiefly found in
the southern states, while. that used
in England Is chiefly produced in the
orchards Of Normandy. It is also the
state flower of Oklahoma.

LEAGUE WOMEN
TO COORDINATE
ALL ACTIVITIES

One immediate result of the recent
ratification Of the equal suffrage
amendment to the American Consti-
tuition is increased activity on the
part Of the Women's Nonpartisan club
Of North Dakota. Miss Rose Melon
nell, secretary Of this organization,
has issued an open letter, urging all
local club women to bestir themselves
and establish county executive COM
mittees preparatory to launching coun-
ty declarations.
Eventually the plan adopted by the
Women's Nonpartisan club Of North
Dakota will be used in Montana, South
Dakota, and, in fact, all states, where
the league is becoming a militant, po-
litical organization. Here is what the
Flickertail state secretary has to say
on the important question of fedora
ton and coordinated activity:
II wish to urge the clubs to push the
work in their county so a county fed
GRAFTON can be formed. AS o o as
five or more clubs have organized in
any county, they may form a county
federation.
'The presidents of the local clubs
will form a county executive commit
tee. The county federation will elect
a state delegate who will be a men,
Der of the state committee. AS soon
as five or more county declarations are
organized, a state federation may be
formed.
"We want the women throughout
the state to get organized for the pur-
pose Of study and investigation, so
that they may be able. to use their
vote intelligently. We are to study
legislation in our clubs so that we
shall be in a position to propose or
support proper legislation in regard to
subjects of vital interest to ourselves,
our homes and our children.
bias and prejudice. We want to in
vestigate the political conditions, par
ties, and proposals.. Every forward
looking oma is, or would be inter
ested in good government-local, state
or national.
IF you haven't a club in your neigh
borhood, get busy and start one. It
is a very easy matter-after five men,
bers are secured, send in the names
and remittance to this office and we
shall issue you a club number, charter
and constitution and other necessary
information. We have at the present
time 1877 clubs with an average Of one
hundred members a week, so put your
shoulder to the wheels Of progress
and get a club started.
IF you feel that you are unable to
proceed with the work, do not hesitate
to write this office and we shall be
glad to render any assistance posi-.
