There are Two Principles Involved In the
Use Of this Filter;

FIRST. Filtration-i e., the removal of all insol
uble matter from the water, rendering it clean and
bright In this the filter is practically perfect
SECOND. Aeration-i. e.. allowing the air to be
brought into direct contact with the filtered water as
it will be observed there are no air escapes such as all
other filters have The compressed air in the water
pipes is filtered through the stone with the water
This operation tends to oxidze and aerate the filtered
water, giving new life and vigor to it. In all other
filters, scientists agree that filtered water has fiat
taste to it. Not in this one For these reasons to-
gether with the perfect lock joint and easy method of
cleaning and taking apart, and simplicity of construc-
ton these Filters are recommended for use in every
household; they have proved a great SUCCESS in
Europe and the United States where they are being
sold in great numbers.
This lot which came in the "Aloha" is the first
ever introduced here, and ask all our friends to
come and see the most perfect Filter now in use

Many horses are fond of beer, and to
a tired horse a bottle of beer in his

horse with no appetite eat freely. Brew

reason why their horses always seem

The large horned beetle can carry 315

Live bees are sometimes shipped on
Ice so to keep them dormant during the
journey. This is particularly the case
with humble bees, which have been
taken to New Zealand, where they are
useful in fertilizing the red clover

The amount of light that can be OBJ
tanned from fire flies is not generally
known. These insects have two bright
spots on their thorax and also brilliant
wings on the abdomen, and give light
sufficient to enable one to read at a
little distance. Two or three placed in
the center of a room will shed soft
light all over ii. They are very COM
mon in Havana, Brazil, Guiana, Ven
ezuela and Mexico. In those countries
at night the natives affix the little crea-
lures to their shoes and thus obtain
light to see the road and brighten away
the snakes. Mexican women use them
as jewels. They tie them in little gauze
bags and put them in their hair or on
their clothing. They keep them in wire
cages and feed them on scraps of sugar
cane.
Reynard is a knowing animal. The
foxes are much tormented by fees, but

They gather from the bark of trees
moss, which they carry to a stream
that deepens by degrees Here they
enter the water still carrying the moss
in their mouths, and, going backward,
beginning from the end of their tails,
they advance by slow degrees till the
whole body with the exception of the
mouth is entirely immersed. The fieas,
during this proceeding, have rushed in
rapid haste to the dry parts and finally
to the moss, and the fox, when he has,
according to his calculation, allowed
sufficient time for all the fieas to take
their departure. quietly opens his
mouth. The moss floats off down the
stream with it's burden of f1eas, and
when it is out of jumping reach the
fox finds its way to the bank much re-

The Atlle.ic Gronnd..

Missoula, April 10.-The plans for the
athletic park are now complete and II is
an assured fact that the park will be a
satisfactory one, and one in which the
city will take pride. The grounds are
situated across the Bitter Root track,
just west of the university, and have
been laid out ready for the construc-
ton work.
The grounds are in shape an irregu-
lar quadrilateral, with the long sides
running nearly north and south The
short end Is the north one and the
south end Is nearly as long as the sides.
The grand stand will be built on the
west side, Its open side being even with
the fence line. 1t will seat about 400
people and will be well protected from
sun and rain. AS it's front is toward
the east, there will be no trouble from
sun at the afternoon games.
The bicycle track is a full quarter of
a mile and will have little or no grade.
The baseball diamond has been laid out
In front of the grand stand. The catch
er will stand near the spectators and
the field will be in plain view of the
stand.
North of the baseball grounds the
Caledonian society will nave its athletic
field, and this will be leveled and placed
In good condition for the games of this
society. The whole plan is an excellent
one and reflects credit upon the pro-
moters.
X. of p. hall was wei filled this
evening with members of the athletic
clubs and their friends, who danced for
the benefit of the park fund. which was
materially increased by the ball.

Hamilton, April 10.-At last the Bit
ter Root has been favored with weather
of a kind satisfactory TO the ranchers,
and Hamilton. thawed out by the sun
shine, has resumed its accustomed
busy appearance. The various new
buildings are assuming definite shape
rapidly and the streets are utterly de-
void of loafers. The new hotel is the
center of attraction and the progress
of the workmen engaged on the build
ing Is watched with an eager interest.
Four days ago the work of bricklaying
began and now the door and window
sashes on the first floor are all in place
and the brick wall is built half way
up. Those who were inclined TO doubt
the possibility of having the building
ready for the reception and entertain
ment of guests by the Fourth of July
are wavering in their opinions and
most certainly. should the work prog
ress as rapidly as IL has since the
bricklay1ng was commenced, the build
ing will be completed by that time.
Probably the largest tree ever cut in
the Bitter Root valley was cut down
and into logs recently by Messrs
Biddescombe and Baird, whossbaye
charge OF crew on Lost Horse creek
The stump of the tree measured 4 feet
inches III diameter and the body of
the tree, cut into logs, contained 1910

The Man Killed at Stevensville Has
Not Been Identified.

Scheme Is Progressing.

Missoula, April 10.-A telephone mes
sage from Stevensville TO the Standard
this afternoon says: The coroner held
an inquest on the remains of the man
who was killed at the railroad station
last night this forenoon. There was
nothing new developed in the case be-
yond what was given in the message
sent last night, and the verdict was to
the effect that the man came to his
death while stealing a ride on the Bit
ter Root train. The body was not iden-
titled, nobody at Stevensville knowing
anything about the man. The only
clews to his identity were the marks on
his clothing and some trifies that he
had in his pockets. On his stockings
was a laundry mark. M. II. e." and
his clothes bore the trade mark of
Boucher. the clothier. Butte. In his
pocket was a hand bill with the ad-
dress. written in pencil, of Charles
Bense, 40 Park avenue, Butte. He wore
a dark blue checked coat and vest and
black striped trousers.
Here in Missoula IL is thought the
dead man is William Cans known as
Billy the Cook. He worked here in the
Florence hotel until March Z, when he
left and went to Butte. A few days
ago he came back here. and yesterday
afternoon he told a friend that he was
going to Hamilton, where he hoped to
get work. Since then he has not been
seen, and from the description which is
given of the dead man. IL is thought
that he is the man. Cans was a short.
slender man and wore a light mustache.
had light hair and blue eyes.

BY Tile CHOIR.
A Pleasant Reception at the Residence of
Father Guidi.

Missoula, April 10-On Thursday
evening Father Guidi, assisted by Mrs.
Thomas Williams, Mrs. Lambert and
Miss Grace Lambert, entertained the
members of ST. Xaviers choir at his
residence on West Pine street the oc-
casion being a slight recognition of the
excellent choir service on Easter Sun
day under the dictatorship Of Mrs
Hoblftzell. Never before was success
so well assured in the rendition on an
extremely difficult composition, as the
chorus mass of last Sunday. Kali
woody's mass in A major was the Sc
lection, with violin obigato by Profess
sor Steele, out of a repertoire of IL
masses produced at various times by
the excellent choir under Mrs Hob
litzelPs direction, who has had an ex-
perience of over a quarter of a century
in direction of Catholic church choirs.
This composition being a German rem
ditlon and entirely new to American
audiences, being sung for the first time
a little over year ago in one of the
large churches of New York. This was
THE first time II was essayed in Mon
tana, and the large congregation at
st. Xavier's last Sunday attested its
appreciation of its excellent merits by
asking repetition. which will be given
next Sunday.

II is often a matter or wonder how a
marine engine attaining an efficiency
greater than those on land can be made
in so simple a form and contain only
half as many pieces The answer is
found mainly in the fact that the resist
ance TO marine engines Is constant and
uniform, or nearly so. and they can. for
this reason. dispense with speed regu-
lating geering which causes most OF the
complications in land engines. The
governor. trip-gearing cushioning appa-
ratus and so on is what calls for so
