Mr.. BARNES SMILES.
The HIissoula Mercantile Company's Puz-
zlo Is Crackerjack.

Missoula, Nov. 27.-One of the most
successful pieces Of advertising that has
been used in recent years in this section
is the puzzle advertisement that was
sprung in the Standard 10 days ago by
c. A. Barnes, advertising manager of
the Missoula Mercantile company
Standard readers will recall the adver-
tisement. 1t consisted of a square of
letters so arranged that the legend, Go
to the M. M. Co. for bargains" could
be read in many ways. The object of
the puzzle was to. determine In how
many different ways it could be read.
No other advertisement that has APP
peared here has ever attracted as much
attention as this one has received from
Standard readers. The paper in which
the ad first appeared was not "a hours
old before answers were received. The
guesses of the various competitors
vary from IS to 100000, so that there
Is plenty of room between for all who
want to speculate. The guesses are
scattered all over the state. Anaconda
and Butte sent in the first solutions and
since then there Ia hardly a town In the
state that is not represented in the
stack of letters that Mr.. Bonner has
filed away. -.,
One Anaconda woman, who was
among the first to respond, wrote: II
can read your puzzle. Begin with the
dig U IN the mlddle ana go 10 the NJ. M.
Co. for bargains in any direction. Send
me the gold watch" A Missoula wo-
man writes; There are 3S ways. Send
me something" One man writes that
he has counted 100000 ways already
and may send more soon. In offices,
schools and stores there are to be found
groups discussing the problem. One boy
called on Mr.. Bonner for sympathy last
week, saying that he had been punished
hana,,cn ha was working on the nuZZ1p
in school, 1t is said that the faculty
of the state university is at work on the
problem and that there is a difference Of
opinion as to how it shall be solved.
The whole thing is worse than the old
Is puzzle and Mr.. Barnes smiles.

Not Up in Shakespeare.

Mssoula, Nov. 27-When Rabbi Els
enberg last lectured here a local paper
threw him into condition bordering
upon insanity by billing his lecture as
'.The Genesis of Shakespeare. 1t would
have been natural to suppose that the
private lecture which the rabbi deliv-
cred to the paper in question on this
occasion would have been sufficient to
cause the force to bone up little on
Shakespeare, but it appears that the
lesson was not profited by, for the office
is in trouble again and this time with
Herr Bandmann.
Herr Bandman is now preparing for
a Thanksgiving presentation of THE
Merchant of Venice" with the support
of a strong cast selected from the stu
dents at the state university. He took
his advertisement to this same paper
and the display contained the cast of
characters. When the eminent TRACE
dian saw that display as it was printed
he went into the air and came down
hard, for, instead of "Launcelot Gobbo"
and 'Old Gobbo,' the display had these
two characters billed as "Lancelot
Gobbs'' and "Old Gobbs" Herr Band
man has not entirely recovered from the
shock yet

A Beautiful DISPLAY.

Mssou1a. Nov. 27.-Those who were
out late Friday evening witnessed a
beautiful meteoric display that had not
been bulletined by the astronomers. The
shower was observed in the eastern
heavens, just over Mount Jumbo, and
is described by those who saw it as
wonderfully beautiful. Most of the
meteors We're deep red and moved rap
idly. but among them were some blue
ones whose motion was slower. The
shower occurred at about 10 o'clock and
continued for several minutes.

Leading feat ures are a clever, neat comedy played by Favor and St. Clair, which has an amusing story, excellent specialties, laughable situations and a bright dia- logue.

found at Naqada. These were at first temporarily assigned to a new race; but now they could be safely assigned to the predynastic stock about 5000 B. C., and even earlier. In the graves of this abo- riginal race were found bowls of black clay with patterns imprinted upon them. In each of the countries where this type had been found, it was con- temporary with the introduction of met als. The proximate date of this was 5000 B. C.--and that accorded very we'll with the time necessary for arriving at the high culture attained by 15O0 B. c. Therefore, these discoveries were of great value in giving the relative state of Egyptian civilization to that of the rest of the world at the introduction of dynastic rule.

There was a wide difference between the people of 5000 B. c. and those of 4O00 B. C., but no difference between those of the latter period and modern times This showed that a different race en- tered the country about that period.

These finds were very important, as they showed the rise of the art of modelling, and of the Egyptian ideas and appreciation of the forms of animals and of the human body, and proved that Egyptian art reached it's high-water mark somewhere before 4009 B. c.
