The Centennial Brewing company is
one of the solid corporations of Silver
Bow county. 1t manufactures good
beer-a better quality of the malt bev-
erage than can be found either east or
west of the Rocky Mountains. In view
of the fact that the warm season is
approaching, the season when polly
wogs and kindred birds will play horse
from IL until ~ with each other in the
Basin creek reservoir, Centennial beer
will be in demand as a cool and re-
freshing drink, and no well regulated
household can afford to be without 1t.
Centennial beer is not only good to
partake of during the pollywog season
but 1T is an excellent, rich drink at any
time of the year. To meet the great
demand of beer drinkers the company
is working a full crew of men and the
creamy richness of the product of the
plant speaks for itself. If one wishes
to be healthy, wealthy and wise, moth
ing in the line of beverage will do the
work so quickly and thoroughly as
Centennial beer. Statesmen, patriots,
old soldiers, scholars and everybody
else drink IL and grow fat. Its fame
and unequaled purity is recognized
from the Atlantic to the Pacific.

AT the end of an hour I returned. No
81 sat near the stove, with his little
daughter on his knee. He looked al
me sheepishly for moment, and then
said, Governor, | haven't any money,
then suddenly stripping off his prison
jacket, he said, For Gods sake, don't
let my little girl go out this bitter day
with that thin dress. Let me give her
this coat. I'll do anything; I'll be a
man; please, governor, let me cover
her with this coat
Tears were streaming down the
face of the hardened man.
"'No, Galson,' l said, keep your
coat. Your little girl shall not suffer.
iii take her to my home, and see what
my wife can do for her.
God bless you, sir sobbed Gal
son.
81 took the little girl to my home.
She remained with us for q number of
years, growing into beautiful Chris
tian character. Tom Galson also be-
cam" Christian, aud never gave us q
moments trouble"
A year ago, visited the prison again
The governor said to me:
Kain, would you like to see Tom
Galson, whose story 1 told you few
years ago."
Yes, | would"
The governor took me through the
city, down quiet Street, and stopping
before modest, neat home, raped at
the door. The knock was answered by
a bright, cheerful woman, who greeted
the governor with the utmost cordialit
We stepped in, and then the governor
introduced me to Nellie and her father,
who because Of his through rcforma-
tion had received pardon, and was now
living an upright Christian life with
his daughter, whose little Christmas
gift had broken mis- heart.

Of the Sepulchre were shut down and
upon them an indignant public rolled
the heavy stone of disspproVal. But
the silver goddess, walking hand in
hand with progress and civilization,
passed that way, halted before the
tomb where the weeping sisters Of plu-
tocrscy were shedding crocodile tears,
and cried out: Democracy, come
FORTH" And that which was dead
came forth, bound hand and foot with
the msnacles Of prejudice, the shackles
Of custom. The molderIng shroud Of
