One Ahead
 The new manager in an office is a bachelor and much sought after by all the girls who work there. But one has been more successful in winning his at tentions than the others and naturally they are extremely jealous, one particu- larly, who started to hurt the popular one the other morning. She came in, her face wearing an enigmatic smile. T just bet MT. X is going to be married" she began. T had a dream about him last night which means marriage. He had some flowers and"
 why he did have flowers last night, " interrupted the pretty one. He was taking them to me. They'Ee on my desk and nov"
 And there was absolute silence in that office while the other girls flew to their work.
 About a Tip
 The head of an ice company was the recipient of a tip from one of the leains citizens. It happened in this way. The ice man passed up the citizens home and visions of sour milk, liquid butter and spoiled food so disturbed the peace of | mind of the citizen that when appealed | to the head of the ice company promised to make a night delivery. The citizen heard the welcome sound of dropping ice and without any observations as to the personnel of the bearer of the welcome coldness, said Good boy" !" and as g sacrifice for his extra efforts tossed hin

service to the country that should be the aim of those who are named to. diplomatic as well as to consular posts. The longer they are engaged in such work the better should they be equipped to represent the United States and the less liable should they be to jeopardize the relations between this and other cuontries. There is no reason why there should not be expert envoys as well as experts in any other line. It is through the maintenance in office of those who are Aufly qualified that ex- per4s can be developed and certainly there Is no reason why the envoy him self should not bs as thoroughly quail fled as those assistants who serve under him and upon whom much dependence is invariably placed because of their ex- perience with such matters, and through retention n on8ee he will be the more valuable to the nation.

Dress reformers of the present day who deplore the abbreviated skirt and the peek-A-boo waist may be astound- ed to learn that even in the good old Puritan times the lure of Dame Fash ion had a bewitching effect on the young men and maidens.

HEARD FROM
She Writes Essay on Anna
Case; Local Concert Not
Tone Test.

Jennie Lind has been heard from.
Most people labored under the inn
precision that the famous singer was
dead, but this morning H. L: Ed
wards, who is managing the appear
ance here ext Wednesday night Of
Anna Case, received a communication
from her. And it did not come via
the ouija board.
Mr.. Edwards has been conducting
an essay contest. M of the rules Of
which is that the writer use a pen
name n enclose their real name in
a sealed envelope. This morning he
received In essay on Anna Case, and
inside was the name OF Jennie Land.
Miss Lind wrote 4 splendid essay, too.
The demand for seats for Miss
Cases concert next Wednesday night
is increasing each day. Last night,
Miss Case appeared as soloist with
the ApoliA club of Minneapolis, and
according to reports from that city
she was received more enthusiastical-
ly than last year, when she packed
the Auditorium for ten consecutive
nights.
A number Of locsl music lovers
have gained the impression that Miss
Cases concert here e week is one
OF the Edison tone-test recitals, but
It is not. Miss Case a booked for
Grand Forks by Mr.. Edwards because
she is one of the most successful and
best-loved singers in the country. Her
concert here has nothing to do with
