Important Testimony.

Prof. H. A. Clarke of the University of
Pa, referring to "The Worlds Sweetest
Songs says: 81 have looked through
the collection and am glad to bear my
testimony to its excellence and variety. I
hope it will meet the success that the
evident care spent in its compilation and
its beautiful typography deserve"
This is fair expression of the opinion
of the best music critics and music lovers
everywhere regarding the most remark
able gathering of sweet and enjoyable
songs that has ever yet been made and
which for limited period the MIDLAND
JOURNAL is distributing to its patrons for
one coupon and 10 cents copy.
Each part contains twenty most lovely
songs that would ordinarily cost you S.. 90
to $Ioo and also is adorned with four
very beautiful illuminated photo portraits
of the star musicians of the world. OF all
the portfolio issues this is the most elegant
and useful and by far the greatest bargain
we have ever yet been able to offer our
patrons-no family or home should be
without THE Worlds Sweetest Songs. !"
Call at the MIDLAND Office or at DR..
Kinks Drug Store and look through one
of these portfolios-the natural conse.

The Fourth of July Number of the
New York Ledger.

The Fourth of-July special holi-
day number of the New York
Ledger is a publication of unrivaled
beauty and interest. The cover
has a beautiful girl waving an
American flag from a window as a
decoration. The contents of this
number of the Ledger make a
stong appeal to patriotic Americans.
"Our National Birthday" and
'FBunker Hill" are the subjects OF
special editorial articles. "Johnny's
Fourth Of July" is an amusing
poetical effusion, dedicated to the
spirit of Young America intent ON
celebrating the holiday. This
number of the Ledger contains the
first chapters of Mrs. E. d. L. N.
Southworth's famous novel, "The
Widows Of Widowville," which
will be read with delight by old
and young readers. Mr.. Fay S,
Rathbun's new story, entitled
"Suspected," and Mr.. Seward w.
Hopkins story, "The Two Gentle
men of Hawaii" are continued
from previous numbers, and are
both strong original American
novels. The Ledger is now an IL
Illustrated paper of the first class,
and with it's various departments
of Science, Correspondence,
Woman's World, miscellany and
children's stories forms the best and
cheapest illustrated family paper
published in America.

A Rising Sun Industry.

Messrs. JOS. S. Pogue & Son,
Rising Suns enterprising carriage
makers, have recently enlarged
their shops and now have we'll
lighted show room with floor space
for IS finished carriages. Having
kept a force of twelve men at work
for the past six months, the space
is at present filled with first class
vehicles of all kinds. The array of
jump-seats, buggies, daytons, sur
reys, spindle wagons, &C., ranging
in price from $40 to 1925, is well
worth a call to see.
In addition to this large and
handsome stock of vehicles is also
a stock Of farming implements OF
all kinds, binder Irvine and harness,
in fact, very nearly anything a
farmer needs in that line may be
by them. Hard times
prices is the order of the day at
this mandatory, terms easy, cash
or note, as suits purchaser. Why
some persons will want to purchase
goods of this or any other kind in
Cincinnati or San Francisco when
they can patronize home industry
and receive guarantee with every
vehicle sold, is one of the mysteries
of mankind, yet occasionally such a
person bobs up and is heard a few
days later remarking what q dull
place it is and wondering why the
business men don't wake up and do
some business. Only few years
since some of our residents thought
they had to go to Oxford to get a
spool of cotton. Patronize home
and you will be the party benfted

that pensions to widows are not in
tended for those whose incomes from
other sources amount to as much as
their pensions. This ruling is cor
rect, and should be applied to all
pensioners, 1t puts the pension on
the ground of charity from the gov
eminent, just as it should be consid-
cred. The public should not be taxed
to pay pensions to people who can
live without them. 1t is time TO make

that burdens the people with tax OF

WHY the State Is Called Montana.

1t is probable that Montana means
rather TIE Forest state than the
Mountainous state, The word Mon
tana. pure Spanish, is used to indicate
the forest clad eastern slope OF the
Andes, and early Spanish maps of the
Americas were plentifully marked
with the word ''monte," which means
forest. English students of these
maps made the mistake of supposing
that this recurrent word indicated the
presence of great mountain ranges.
The Spanish monte has been taken
into the French language, where it re-
ta!ns its original meaning.

herself in pond because she suffer

to be an effectual cure for both tooth
ache and heartache.
