THE
Success
IS THE
PERFECT FILTER !
BECAUSE


First-The fltering medium is Tri-
, poll Stone which does not receive into
its pores the filth and germs it extracts
! and which is always the same, no
matter how long in use.
Second-The action of the filter
downward, from an upper to lower
jar, passes the water, drop by drop,
through the air, restoring the oxygen
! thereby which the water may have lost
from stagnation, confinement, or other
| wise, and imparting to it freshness of
! taste, sparkle and vitality.
Third-Its action is as rapid as is
consistent with efficacy. A too rapid
fltering does not, wholly remove i'm
purities
Fourth-Every part is accessible for
cleaning, and without laborious effort.
Thorough cleanliness is the chief reQu-
isite of any good filter.
Fifth-The jars being made either of
stoneware or porcelain insures water
being kept pure and uncontaminated
after being filtered.
Sixth-StOneware for those who de-
sire an efficient yet low-priced filter,
and the finest porcelain, decorated to
suit, enables the SUCCESS to accom-
modate itself to the wants of all in
the matter of price.
Seventh-Its construction admits
also Of it's capacity being adapted to
suit the wants of all, from the indi-
vidual tourist to the largest hotel or
laundry.
Since introducing the Success Fill |
ter, we have sold a large number of |
them, and they give perfect satisfac- |
tiop.

Silver Senators

Great Falls Tribune: The silver men
in the senate have shown their teeth.
AS the price of the reorganization of
the body by republicans they secured a
ma jority of the committee on finance,
and this mornings dispatches tell the
yest. The house 3 per cent. bond bill
has been pigeon-holed and in its stead
there will be reported to the senate a
substitute which provides for the free
coinage of silver. the coinage of the
seigniorage in the treasury, the retire
ment of all notes of a less denomina-
ton than $40. and giving the secretary
of the treasury the option to redeem
greenbacks and treasury notes in either
gold or silver. The bill may not pass
the senate, but the chances are that 1t
will 1t cannot pass the house, but 1t
will force the issue and put all mem
bers on record. 1t is a move in the
right direction. for IL gives silver a
chance for further official attention at
the hands of legislators that will be-
yond question be a valuable factor in
the campaign of education that must
be a pant of the campaign OF sc. Blus-
ter and deny and fret and fume and

Paternalism of the Right Sort.

Butte Bystander: The appearance of

that, as the state furnishes the school
houses, the blackboaris and the teach

foundation upon which this govern
ment rests. IL would be a step forward
in civilization If the state would also
furnish the school books for use in the
schools. That this could be done at
very great saving to the people there
is no doubt. Neither is there the least
doubt but il would advance the cause
of education. The only objection 20 II
is the cry of paternalism. which is re-
ferred TO in this text book There can
be no objection TO paternalism so long
as IL IS for the benefit Of the masses

There is now in the school income
fund 51,s55.14. Tt is the money earned
by the permanent school fund, which
at present amounts to s15s.401. The
permanent fund is derived from the
sale of school lands and can never be
used outright for school or other pur-
poses. A small part of II is invested in
state warrants and county and school
district bonds and the interest il brings
goes into the income fund which alone
may be used for school purposes. All
moneys paid on leases of school lands
also go TO the income fund.
The constitution of the state provided
for the creation of the school income
fund, but failed 10 make provision for
