THERE are eggs and eggs. The egg
of yesterday looks, feels, measures and
weighs like the egg of last month, but
there's difference in another respect,
and that difference is worth money.
Its just so with laundry. The difference
between good work and poor is slight to
the Impractical discernment. but IFS a
diference that counts every time. It's
a difference that changes your laundry
bill from An expense to an investment.
We do good aoOrk-it will cost no more
than poor work but its worth double
the difference.

VICTIM Of MELANCHOLIA
Henry Wilson Ordered Commit
ted to the Insane Asylum.
APPEARS TO BE INATRANCE
Refuses to Reply to Questions Put to
Him-ssows an Utter Indiffer-
enc as to What Is
Going On.

Henry Wilson was yesterday tried
by a commission on insanity and was
ordered sent to the asylum AT Warm
Springs.
Wilson was taken into custody by the
sheriff's officers on Tuesday upon his
release from the states prison at Deer
Lodge. He was brought to this city
and placed in Jail. where he remained
until his examination yesterday.
Wilson is a sufferer rom melan-
cholia, and seems to be in a lethargic
state all the time. Several witnesses
testified that Wilson. while in the peni-
tentiay, had suffered from the affection.
During the past three years the disease
grew worse. For a long time he -e-
fused to speak to anybody. He refused
to get out of bed. and would take no
exercise. He would not take his meals
at the table with the other prisoners.
and when food was brought to him in
his cell. he would eat IL as "A man who
was Indifferent to whether ne ate 4 or
not. He would not use a knife OF fork.
but would take up the o with his
fingers. Soup. broth n other liquid
o. would also be eaten without a
spoon.
During the examination yesterday
Wilson was asked several questions,
but he gave no answers He sat star
ing at n particular spot, and acted
like a man in a trance. At the con-
clusion of the examination. the com
mission concluded that Wilson is a fit
subject for the insane asylum, and he
was ordered sent there.
Wilson vas convicted of burglary in
Miles City many years ago. He was
sentenced to 10 years i'm the penitenti-
airy and his term expired two days ago.
The poor fellow does not seem to know
or care what Is going on about him,
neither does he appear to know when
any one is talking to him.
