NsOs..,tx. for Keeping Clean.

An old physician being appealed to
for some general comprehensive rule fdr
the preservation of good health. replied,
Keep clean" Cleanliness, from med
ical point of view, generally means the
absence Of noxious germs. The laity
generally comprehend in the term free
dom from foreign substances, while ths
psychologist and moralist have refer
eDce to purity, of mind and soul An
these combined wouldn't form the fits5
principle of good health. Freedom from
all filth with reference to the body and
its surroundings, freedom from contain
ination of mind and soul, would MAKE
the individual not only free from ma
terial pollutions, but would inspire him
with a sense Of cleanliness, feeling ot
purity that would cleanse life and giorify
the consciousness of living.
There Is a meaning in the word
clean that penetrates beyond things
seen and touches the mental and spir-
itual nature of humanity. Cleanliness
in a material sense may not abhor dissi-
pations and debauches which impress
life with a sense of impurity, Whaling
the sources of health and impairing its
Judgment. Keep clean" is an sdmonir
ton carrying with 1T al inspiration
which not only invigorates life, but
makes it enjoyable and beautiful. Clean
illness brings not only comfort and
health, but it sdorns living. gives exist
ence a charm, imparts consciousness OF
life, real enjoyment, thought and feel
ing of existence, the purpose and sane
tity Of living. There is world of mean
ing in the two little words keep
clean. "-Jenness Miller Illustrated

OH Springs Long stDos Abandoned.

Before the year 1900 oil springs were
known to exist along the valley of Oil
creek. The Indians of that section used
the oil for medicinal and other purposes
Remains of wells and pits are to be
found in that vicinity. Some of these
have been cribbed, the timber showing
the marks of edged tools, and are sunk
to the depth of twenty feet or more. In
these pits and wells, which are now
nearly all filed up, trees over several
hundred years old have been discovered
growings The Indians do not know who
dug these wells, and the presumption is
that they wereddug by prehistoric
race. Ls1nterYieR IN Chicago Tribune,

THE o GONE.

Hugh Monroe, the Oldest Man In Mon
tana, Is Dead.
Word has been received, says the River
Press, telling of the denth of Hugh Mon
roe, who has long been known as the Oldest
man in Montana. Mr.. Monroe, who lived
on Two Medicine creek, four miles north
of the agency, on Blaokfeet reservation, in
Choteau county, Was born near Montreal,
Canada. May 4, 1884, and was therefore
over 1913 years OF age at the time OF his
denth, which occurred on Thursday last.
Sth inst. At the age OF ID he started west
with a relativefin the employ of the Hud-
son Bay com pany. and WAS stationed on the
Saskatchewan river. In 1906 Monroe mar
ried IA Blaokfoot woman and lett the en-
nlov of the company to dwell among the
Indians.
Much of his early married life was spent
among the Kootenais. In 1882. having
heard of the arrival of the American Fur
oompany's traders at the mouth of the Ma
rias, he made a long journey with his wife.
to again see white men and lay in a stock
OF tobacco. In 1886, with a party of koote-
nais. he discovered and christened 81. Ma
rvs lake, erecting a large CROSS there at the
time.
In 1858 Gov. Stevens survey party landed
at Fort Benton, and Mon oe acted as guide
and int, prefer as far as Walie Walla, from
which point he retu ned to the Kootenaia.
About ten years ago Monroe returned to the
Blackfeet reservation. and later took up his
residence on Two Medicine creek, about
twenty miles east of the main range of the
Rockies. Very few Interpreters could
equal him as sign talker, and he spoke
various Indian languages tiuently. Up IN
til Il few days before his death he was quite
active for a man of his age and was an in
v~eterate hunter. He rarely visited the
white people, and for ninety years past his
life was spent almost entirely with the In
diaus. "
