Use Of Tobacco.
An Oid-Timer Cured After Using
Tobacco wenty- Three Years
He Gains twenty Pounds in
Thirty Days.

Lake Geneva, Wis, April 25.-(Spe-
cial. 1.-The ladies of our beautiful little
town are making IL interesting for to-
bacco-using husbands. since the injur-
ious effect of tobacco and the ease
with which IL can be cured by No-To-
Bac have been plainly demonstrated by
the cure of +. G. Waite. In a written
statement he says: II smoked and
chewed tobacco for % years. and my
case was one of the worst in this part
of the country. Even after went to
bed at night, ! woke up to chew or
smoke. 1t was killing me and my wife
was also ailing from the injurious ef-
fects. Two boxes of No-To-Bac cured
me, and / have no more desire for to-
bacco than / have 90 jump out of the
window. 1 have gained 20 pounds in
80 days, my wife is well. and we are
indeed both happy to say that No-To-
Bac is truly worth its weight in
gold.
Mr.. waite's cure is looked upon as a
miracle IL is the talk of the town and
county. and over a Thousand tobacco
users will use No-To-Bac. The pecu-
harfty about No-To-Rac 1. that the
makers authorize every druggist in
America TO absolutely guarantee three
boxes to cure or refund the money, and
the cost is 50 trining. compared with
the expensive use of tobacco. that to-
bacco-using husbands have no excuse
to offer when their wives insist upon
their taking No-To- Bac, gaining pure.

powers and a practical rehabilitation

Colonel McGowan SAYS Ills Section Is In
Good shape.
Missoula, April 25.-Colonel Meow
an of Horse Plains (or just plain
Plains). is in the city on a business
visit. He brings good reports from his
pretty town and says that the valley
below is in the best shape that IL has
been in for many seasons. The colonel
himself has just completed the plant
ing of a fine orchard and is now in line
as fruitgrower. In all parts of the
Plains valley there is a lot of improve
ment going on, both in the matter OF
buildings and in the general better
ment of ranches. The people at the
Plains were a little late this spring in
getting their plans laid for new
school house, but they will be in line
in the fall and in another year there
will be a school building there that will
be in keeping with the other buildings
of the town which are much better
than are found in most towns of the
size OF Horse Plains Cor Plains). In
the town there are some residences now
in course Of erection and there are
more to follow. IL will be lively town
all this season and the indications are
that there are many more good years
in store for this valley, which is one
of the best in the state.
The crop outlook is most encouraging
here and the farmers are feeling better
than they have since the floods swept
away all their grain and fences two
years ago In addition TO the usual
excellent grain crop that is raised in
the valley there will this year be some
fruit I'm the market from this valley.

icated ArbOr Day.
ALL MISSOULA WILL ATTEND
Formal Exercises at the UnIver-
sity- Business Houses May Close,
So as to make the Occasion
Crander-Cames and Sports.

Missoula, April 25.-The athletic clubs
are all in line for the proper starting
off of the new park, and the day that
1t is opened promises to be lively
one in the CITY, 1t has been decided to
dedicate the park on the day that the
Arbor day exercises are held at the
university grounds. In this way the
whole city will be able to attend the
exercises, as it is now proposed to make
the day a holiday here. 1t is thought
that the merchants will close their
places of business for half a day and
then there will be no doubt of the
success of the day. The principal fea-
ture of the day will be the formal ex-
ercises at the university, as II is pro-
posed to show by this that the city is
as deeply interested in the university
as to devote one day in the year to 1t
alone and TO the Improvement of its
grounds and other equipment.
But there will be no lack of interest
In the athletic park. This is an institu-
ton that is of interest to all in the
city. 1t is the successful outcome of a
plan that originated with the young
men of the city and they have seen Ii
through with a degree of persistence
that is commendable and has insured
the success of the thing from the start.
Now that IL is all finished the people
ought to show that they appreciate the
enterprise of the men who have spent
so much time in carrying to a success
full issue the plan which they conceived
and which II was predicted would never
be carried out. The exercises will be
interesting and will be a series of con-
tests in charge of the Caledonian soci-
ETY.. The games of this society last year
will be remembered by all who saw
them, and the assurance that those
that are to be given this spring will be
even better will draw a large crowd.

attachments, the patent Office is known
as the great American crank pen and, it
is this feature of it that presents the hui
morous aspect. The great number of ut
terly impracticable and almost ridiou-
lous devices for which patents are asked
is source of amusement and wonder TO
those who get an insight into the matter.
"Whesls in the head" see m to be an apt
designation of the mania which possesses
hundreds of men who are busying them
selves in thu field of invention, and
glance through the recent files at any
time will reveal some new insanity in
mechanism upon which a patent is
asked. Years ago, in the days of frequent
Indian deprodations, when the frontier
covered good deal more ground than 1t
does now, some rural genius invented
common plow that was to have its beam
filled with grape and canister ready for
use in case of surprise by the redskins.
Another Western chap designed cyclone
house which was to be anchored against
cyclones. Among the other oddities noted
are tapeworm trap, to be inserted
through the mouth to catch the unwary
tapeworm when he ventures too far off
his reservation, and an illuminated met
al cat with eyes Of fire, designed to be
holy terror to rats and mice. A later
device Of the funny sort, but one with
some possible utility, is a hens nest in
which the egg drops through trap door
as soon IA deposited by the hen, the OBJ
Ject being to make the hen believe she
has not succeeded in laying an egg. Still
lator than this ia an invention by man
named Batter, which consists of shoe
with heating apparatus in the sole to
keep the feet warm; also steering con-
trivance for hunting dogs, consisting of
a fan attachment to the tail of the dog
to assist him in turning sharp corners.
In recent years many of the crank de-
vices are of the electrical sort. One of
the most ingeniously impraoticable of
these is "pickpocket and coat thief de-
tector,' invented by Chicago man. 1t
consists of an electric battery concealed
about the person, connected with q bell
worn under the vest which rings when
q hand is inserted in the protected pook
ct.
Another Illinois man patented an cleo
trio Continuance to assist the befuddled
club man in finding the keybole when
returning home late on dark night. A
small metal cylinder containing power

matter how dark the night or how uncer-
tain tho gentleman's frame of mind, he

The Knowing Hotel Clerk.

A good hotel clerk must know every
thing He must be able to read the inner
most thoughts of every guest that comes
to his house. He must be ready to answer
every question that is asked, whether con-
corning railroad trains, Professionalism,
politics, law, science, geography, astron-
omy or theology.
Houston has ono Of the brightest hotel
clerks in the world. He is always affablo,
ready with any kind Of information what
ever and never has to be asked twice for
anything.
Two drummers were sitting in the lobby
of this hotel a few nights ago and ono of
them was telling the other about the
clerk readiness and said:
''I'll bet you the drinks that If you open
that newspaper that you have in your
hand, select the first phrase that meets
your eye and then walk over to the clerk
and say it over to him he will respond in
some way without a moments hesitation. !"
The drummer opened the paper by
chance at political article, and the first
words he saw were, "The greatest good to
the greatest number" He walked over to
the clerks desk, leaned his elbow on it
and said seriously, "The greatest good to
the greatest number"
The clerk smiled pleasantly, tapped a
bell and said to the bellboy:
