Tam O'Shanter's ride through the
midnight wind with the horrible hob
COLLINS pursuing him was only bad
dream, or nightmare, which ANYBODY is
liable to experience as the result of over
eating OF an attack of biliousness or in
digestion. To avoid such disagreeable
experiences one or two of DIR. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets should be taken after a
too hearty meal and the action of she
stomach will thereby be quickened and
the meal promptly digested.
Then too If Nature be assisted a little
now and then in removing offending
matter from the stomach and bowels you
viii thereby avoid a multitude of dis
tressiug arrangements and diseases, and
will have less frequent need for your
doctors services.
OF all known agents for this purpose,
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are the best
Their secondary effect is 10 keep the
bowels open and regular, not 10 further
constipate, as Is the case with other pills.
Hence, their great popularity with suf-
terers from habitual constipation, piles
and their attendant discomfort and man
nold arrangements.
The Pellets cure biliOusness, sick and
bilious headache. dizziness, costiveness,
or constipation, sour stomach, loss of ap-
petite, coated tongue, indigestion, OF
dyspepsia. windy belchings, heart

and kindred arrangements of the liver,
stomach and bowels. One little Pei

Some Choteau County Flocks Said to BE
Infected with the Disease.

Some Choteau County Fiocks Said to BE
Infected with the Disease.
Fort Benton River Press: DR.. Bird,
state veterinarian, arrived from Hell
ena this "wednesday morning to in
vestigate some cases of sheep disease
alleged to exist among fiocks on the
Shonkin. AS near as could be deter
mined before a personal inspection OF
the matter, DIR. Bird was of the opin-
ion that 1t was an outbreak of scab,
one of the greatest misfortunes that
could overtake a sheep man in Mon
tana or any other section.
The first symptoms of the disease
were discovered few days ago by
John +. Patterson among a bunch of
Wyoming bucks purchased last fall.
Some of his stock sheep also showed
evidences of something wrong, and all
sheep so discovered were promptly sep
arated and quarantined. The skin
showed patches of crust, among which
were mites or insects very much re-
sembling a louise. The advice of a
neighboring sheepman was sought
and it was thought to be simply
case of lice, but it was deemed best to
consult the state veterinarian, who is
disposed to regard IL as scab. few
sheep in the flocks of ]. o. Patterson
and Murphy e. Patterson on the Shon-
kin, are said to be similarly affected.
If these suspicious prove well found
ed there is reason to believe that the
infection came from a consignment of
delaine bucks brought from Wyoming
last fall. They were passed by the
state inspector as clean and free from
disease, but to make things doubly
sure the entire bunch was dipped three
times before being offered for sale. The
owner of the consignment took extra
precautions to insure absolute sa fety
burt In view of subsequent develop
ments few Of the parasites seem to
have escaped and become a source of
untold trouble.
These bucks were purchased by vari-
Gus parties and were widely distrib-
fed. They went to Denton, Chinook
the upper Marias. the Teton, Havre.
the Shonkin, Utica, Sand Coulee and
to camps at several other points. The
parties have all been notified and II
will soon be known if the disease orig
mated from the source suspected.

Boulder Age: There is some fault
found with Governor Richards for his
trip to Washington at the expense of
the state to see what can be done to-
wards getting the Cree Indians back
into Canada where they belong; the
statement being made that our sena-
tors and representatives could as well
have attended to it. If we recall cor
rectly there have been various and
sundry efforts made by different par
ties in this matter for two or three
years, and with the clamor that has
been continually going up to have the
matter attended to we believe that
Governor Richards is doing we'll to

An Endorsement of Hepburn.

Billings Gazette: I'VE want no rela-
tione with that murderer" said Con-
gresham Hepburn of Iowa in the
house last Monday, referring to Tur-
key. He prefaced the remark with a
resolution instructing the president to
give the Turkish minister his pass
ports and end all diplomatic relations
with Turkey. Mr. Hit rebuked Hep
burn for his extraordinary proposal to
sever diplomatic relations with a
friendly power, and of course the res
olution did not pass. Nevertheless the
sentiment of IL is good and will meet
the approval of the American people.
1t Is unfortunate that the rules and
usages Of diplomacy do not admit of
such an action as proposed by Mr..
Hepburn, for every one is agreed that
Turkey deserves no consideration at
the hands of civilized nations Bar
barism is too mild a term to apply to
such a country and we wish the day
might come when diplomacy could be
thrown aside and the Turk be forever
barred from intercourse with the out
side world. That would be the sim
plest manner of settling the problem

Philosophy OF Money.

Bozeman Chronicle: A child should
be taught that ii cannot enjoy the
twin pleasures of eating the stick of
candy and keeping the penny. Bearing
in mind this unbending law of political
economy we cannot help noting the
fact that the early education of those
who never pay their debts seems to
have been much neglected. or that
their later convictions of honesty have
become sadly warped. Perhaps many
have never reflected on the fact that
there are always two ends to a straight
string-that whilst they are holding on
and swimming sersnely along the fell
low at the other end who is perform
ing the pulling act is worthy of some
consideration.

of course. in this state as in other
states, quite a variety of climate. Just

Livingston Post: The venerable DIR.
Mussigbrod of Warm Springs was in

The doctor says this is the mildest
winter he has experienced in Montana
during a residence of 33 years in the
state. The nearest approach to the
present season he says was the first
season he spent here. in 1868. when pla-
GER mining was conducted at Bannock

year was only frozen up IL days so 1t
could not be used for mining purposes.

a pretty strong statement. and to car
