Of Interest to Women It's a fortunate thing for many law yers that the fool killer is so far be hind in his work. Nothing seems to succeed like the success of the woman who knows what she wants and goes after it. About the only difference between accepting a position and securing a job is the matter of remuneration. Some things may come to those who wait, but the best things come to those who are so busy hustling that they have no time to wait. Queen Alexandra is the first English queen to appear at a chapter of the Order of the Garter as lady of the garter since the time of Henry VII., when Elizabeth of York was lady of the garter. If you wish to possess bright eves be animated and cheerful. An excellent health rule for bright eyes and a clear skin is to take the juice of a lemon in a glass of water with a dash of salt added every morning before breakfast. This acts directly on the liver, which has more to do with good looks than people imagine. An offer of $624,000 for a vacant piece of ground in Fifth avenue, New York, has been refused by its owner, Miss Josephine Wendel, an elderly lady who is related to the Astors. The reason given is that the spot at present serves as a playground for her pet dog Trixie, and if it were sold the dog would have no open space where it could take exercise. The question of title is one of the most delicate in Germany, a fact of which the stranger is constantly re minded in intercourse with the people, particularly with the women. Frau Professor, Frau Director, Frau Doctor are most particular about their hus bands' titles being attached to their own names, but when it comes to mil itary circles it is different, and both men and women protest vigorously against this sharing of titles. Lieut enant Von-B objects to having his wife addressed as Frau Lieutenant, which belongs as well to the wife of Lieutenant Schmidt or Haff or a less aristocratic regiment. A keen student of the occult Queen Maud of Norway for years has kept a crystal ball, and it is said that long before she had ever dreamed of being a sovereign's consort she saw herself crowned in the mystic crystal. Owing to this manifestation (which at the time she regarded as nonsense) she gave up for nearly two years crystal gazing. When Prince Charles of Den mark was ottered the throne of Norway what she had seen came back on her with almost a shock. As a girl palm istry fascinated her, and she studiea it most thoroughly. It is declared that when the czar and czarina were visit ing Queen Victoria some years ago Princess Maud foretold to both of them much of the trouble through which they have 'been passing. The campaign against feathers in women's hats has reached France. The most humanitarian of women naturally have been a trifle doubtful of the suc cess of the movement, in spite of the fact that everything in regard to fe male fashion still follows the lead of Paris. But now Paris has taken up the matter in which London, New York, Berlin and Amsterdam already have moved, and a league now exists the object of which is to combat the slaughter of young birds for feminine adornment. The idea of the league Is not to trouble the legislature or the authorities, but to endeavor to influ ence public opinion, and first of all to interest the modiste in the movement. One point gained is that all who have heard about the matter seem to be surprised that hats can be made so attractive without birds feathers. IS AFTER OBJECTS SCULP Grassick Would Becomc Secretary of State Board of Health and Makes an Active Campaign. Walhalla Mountaineer: It is said that Governor- Elect BBurke is being hourly petitioned and importuned for the appointment of this or that man to some position. We can believe it, for the long wait since the last demo cratic feeding has been one to make the real politicians of the party very hungry: It is also certain that one Dr. J. Grassick of Grand Forks, is los ing no time in making application for Dr. Healey's place, superintendent of the state board of health, nor is he leaving any influence that he can bring, to bear on the success of his endeavor. Dr. Grassick is sending cir culars to all of the physicians in the state announcing his "wants" and en closing a blank endorsement of him self, addressed to Hon. John Burke, all ready for the physician applied to simply sign and return to him—ad ding that the same indorsement cop ied on a letterhead of the physician would be more aceptable as carrying more weight with him. We notice it simply to illustrate that the position of the governor-elect must be a very harrassing one just at present. We would like to say, in this connection, however, that Dr. Healey has been one of the best and most painstaking ofliclals in the state. has not used his office for political purposes, has not paid any debts in its manipulation, in fact has left politics alone and attended strictly to his duties. He is liked by every man in the state who has had anything to do with him—except those whom he has made obey the law—and that the state health has been preserved and law maintained without prejudice or partiality. We had hoped to see the doctor remain in his position—but evidently Dr. Grassick has Inside in formation or he would hardly be mak ing the effort he is. NSSOCIJITION SUCCESSFUL Bankers Organization Efforts to Lo cate Hen Who Secured Money Under False Pretenses End Favorably. Victor G. Poirier of Gladstone, Minn., was arrested at Fargo by Dep uty Sheriff Bingham and was taken to Ellendale, where he is wanted on a charge of obtaning money under false pretenses from the bank in that place. The warrant was preferred against Poirier by the North Dakota State Bankers' association, it being alleged that he defrauded the bank at Ellen dale out of considerable money some time ago. Poirier was released from the coun ty jail at Moorhead and upon securing his release he came to Fargo only to be promptly arrested by the author* ties who had been waiting for their man during the entire afternoon and evening. Last November W. C. Macfadden was notified that Poirier had passed a number of bogus checks for small amounts on banks in Dickey county. He promptly mailed a number of post al cards to the members of the asso ciation throughout the state warning them against the man and requesting them to be on the lookout for him and have him apprehended if possible. One of these notices was published in a Minneapolis paper Chief of Po lice Malvey of Moornead noted it and clipping it placed it on file for future reference. Sunday he found a man answering to the description and promptly placed him under arrest, lat er notifying Mr. Macfadden. Poirier is a man about 25 years old and has lived for some time in the vicinity of Ellendale. His parents are said to reside at Pipestone, Minn. It is possible for a man to avoid at tending his own wedding, but he can't get out of enacting the star role at his own funeral.

CANDIES ICE CREAM AND Black was first used for mourning in 1498 when Charles VIII. of Prance died. His widow, it is said, objected to the white mourning customary at that time as not sufficiently sugges tive of the depth of her grief. So she dressed herself all in ulack, and drap ed her coat of arms in the same somber color, thus setting the fash ion, which has been followed ever since.
