THIS Company, while thanking the
Il public for its generous support, are
still able to furnish first.class teams.
The steady advancement of this Com
pany since its organization, two years
ago, has convinced us that persons who
drive their own teams not only make
steady competent drivers, but as rule,
are not likely TO charge more than legal
rates. Any passenger overcharged by
any of our drivers will, OH application
to our Office, have the overcharge
promptly returned. The object of the
United Carriage Company is to supply
the public with good teams at legitimate
rates of fare, and hope by so doing to
merit, in the future, the same liberal
patronage that we have received in the
past. UNITED CARRIAGE Co.

Mr.. Cleveland would seem to be
in danger of being wounded in the
house of his friends, by some of his
appointees to commanding positions
betraying the confidence reposed in
them as upholders of civil service
reform. An instance of the above
statement is the case of the Collector
of the port of New York, whose
appointment was well spoken of on
account of his reform proclivities,
but who, no sooner than he was
comfortably enscoEced in his posi-
ton, began to turn out eminently
efficient officers to make room for
his political favorites. At least, that
is the Mugwumpery of it.

An American paper, in an article
on the late international yacht race,
says, "The friendly contest between
the Genesta and the Puritan was
most agreeable because it was con-
test of gentlemen. There is a
touchstone in that remark, which,
if brought into contact with sporting
affairs in this country would save
them from such disagreeable episodes
as have sometimes characterized
them. Besides, "gentlemanly" in
the true sense of the term would
preclude the disgraces of jockeying
and the demoralizations of gambling
in our manly sports.

ECONOMY !!

That ECONOMY is the royal
road to wealth " is an old and
true saying. We all know that,
and the only reason why more
of us are not rich is that the
economical road is hard one to
travel. Self-denial is a lesson
not easily learned, and when
learned not a pleasant duty to-
practice. Still, if riches are to
be secured, the art of economy
must be acquired and put to
practical use in many directions.
Now, we can't advise you in
regard to the many ways in which
money can be secured, but, as a
starter, we suggest economy
in the buying of those most i'm
portant items, boots or shoes.
Here we are at home and able to
offer sound advice. BY economy
we don't advise you to buy a
poor article, simply because it is
cheap. That s down s'ie 8sht nrodi-
gality. Whenabout = pal0hase
boots or shoes, buy a good, reli-
able article at about the price
you are accustomed to pay for
inferior goods. Can this be done?
Well, you would not need to ask
this question if you had ever ex-
amined the goods we offer and
compared the prices with any
thing offered elsewhere. We
offer our goods at tremendous
bargains. But we could charge
more for them just as wellas any.
body else. Why don't we? Be-
cause we learned some time ago
that it is betterto sell many cases
of goods at q small profit than
few at a large one. Better for us
and better for you.

Breeds and Families,

In the breeding of live stock, every
body realizes the subdivision of races into
breeds. Among cattle We have Short
horns, Deyons, Ayrshires. Jerseys,
Dutch, etc, and il 5 impossible to estab-
lish definite limits to their multiplication.
Among dogs we have pointers, settlers.
mastitls, etc, in great numbers, and 50
among all the races ofquadrupeds, birds,
and even fishes, which come under the
influence of intelligent breeders, breeds
are multiplied These breeds OCCASION
ally break up into sub-breeds. Us setter
dogs into English, Irish, Gordon, etc,
and when carefully bred, they ALWAYS
break up into families. These are essen
TALLY short-lived from the nature of
things. A family may possess strong
pecnllarltles, great pre- potency, and the
individuals may bear to each other strong
resembances, but in the course of years,
continued close breeding within the
family, will weaken the constitution. or
lessen the profit to -he keeper in one way
or another, so that he is actually forced
10 take outside CROSSES. 10 MAINTAIN the
character of the family. AS an example,
the famous family of Duchess Shorthorns,
was first maintained intact by the oxford
cross, which finally became so blended
with the Duchesses, that other crosses
were forced upon breeders, each one
doing its share to dilute the blood and
destroy the identity Of The family. The
highest value of families is for crossing
and grading. Among the Jerseys as now
bred. we see this strikingly shown. The
great producers are all recent crosses OF
great butter families. These crosses be-
tween families serve in this way to inten-
sify the characteristics of the breed. The
blood of different families does not always
unite well to produce the sought for
qualities. When this is SO, the families
are said not to "nick" with each other.
Yet they may, and probably will nick
well, crossed with others. Thus the
blood of the famous English bull "Rioter, j

other families, has produced great butter

A Montana Menu.

One morning recently a hungry pilgrim
went into Butte City restaurant and
ordered some toast, boiled potatoes,
poached eggs, rare steak and some hot
cakes. The waiter went to the kitchen
and roared out to the Chinaman: "Gim-
me graveyard stew, potatoes in the
dark, two men horseback, a moonlight
on the lake and a tiambeau.' When the
pilgrim heard this remarkable order he
incontnently fled from the house, for
getting to take his hat and muttering
that he'd "be gol darned if he proposed
to tackle that kind of breakfast, and that
if the people lived on such things in this
country he proposed to return to Missou-
RI"
A reporter of the Inter Mountain, who
happened to be in the restaurant at the
time, approached the waiter and asked
for an explanation of the order, and the
professor gave the following version:
"You see," he said, "we get tired of
commonplaces, and besides we try to
teach the Chinaman the language. A
graveyard stew means milk toast pota-
toes in the dark is boiled potatoes eggs
circus style means scrambled eggs rough
and ready means pork and beans a
fiambeau is light, hot cakes, and moon
light on the lake is rare beefsteak The
walters all have pet names for these
things, and we throw potatoes at the
China cooks till they know what we
mean
Another boarder came in and the pro-
fessor roared out with the voice of a
Stentor: "Gimme "a saddebags and a
springer, spuds Of the side, tenpenny
nails and single to come runnin'.' -
Then the reporter followed in the wake
of the Miss0urian.
