4 Big Snow Storm Strikes Billings-Bad
for Sheep.
Fpring is not here yet if we are to
fudge by the weather OF yesterday and
today. ~ snow storm set in yesterday
afternoon and by night the ground was
covered with a soft white mantle of
about three inches. During the night
a heavy wind prevailed. which blew
the nov in high drifts. Today a gen.
uine winter storm has prevailed, the
now and wind making traffic almost
impossible. The storm is one Of the
most disagreeable of the winter season.
AT no time, however, has it been very
cold and the weather observer denotes
a warmer thing for tomorrow.
The storm is all right for farming
purposes and will put the soil in excel
lent condition. Fruit trees will not
likely be damaged by the storm as it
has hardly been cold enough.
The arrival of the storm just at this
time does not please the sheepmen a
little bit. 1t is lambing season and
those that .haye no protection for their
stock will probably suffer some loss.

One thing Mr.. Clay Clement has
done for US in his admirable presenta-

dition to the emphasis he has given to

bring before us the intellectual peculi-
arity and beauty of the German civili-
zation through his character of Won
Ho~henstautfen. The real German civil
l~ization is SO remote from us that we
scarcely realize the strange blending of
philosophical sentiment with a rigid
old world formality that marks it's in
~dividuality. Baron Won Ho%henstauffen
is in himself an epitome of all that is
best in the German character. MI.

make the New York doctors ashamed of

The claim of the man is this: Unless

clogged pneumonia is impossible, and it
is even quite difficult to take cold if the
circulation of the fluids of the body is
free.
''His method is simplicity itself. In
the first place, to start with, he gives
big dose of physic and puts his man into
lots of blankets, and then he gathers
all the bottles he can find in the camp
and fills them with hot water and heats
every part of the man but his head. As
soon as he thinks the physic is out of
his stomach, he makes him sip hot wa
ter. Just as soon as he sees a drop of
perspiration on his forehead he will say:
