OLD LANDMARK GONE.
Saloon on Reiiiey's Hill Destroyed by
Fire.

Saloon on Reiiiey's Hill Destroyed by
Fire.
An old landmark was destroyed this
morning when the old saloon on Reil-
ly's hill was burned to the ground.
The building had not been occupied
for sometime but the bar, tables and
chairs left by the last occupant were
in the building and were consumed by
the flames.
The cause of the fire is not known
but it is supposed that as there was
some talk of reopening a saloon there
that it was set afire to prevent it, the
sentiment of the people in the neigh
borhood being opposed to a saloon
there.
The building was owned by Tom
Reilly and was one of the first built
in the county. When first used as a
saloon good business was done as
it was situated convenient distance
from town, about mile from the
Flathead river on the east side. Later
on, however, business was dull and
the saloon was abandoned, the build
ing being unoccupied for number of
years.
Travellers to and from the east side
will miss the old land mark and heave
a sigh for the days when it's foaming
lager washed the dust from their

OIL FROM klNTLA LAKE.
Samples From Springs Of Fiathead
Valley.

Samples From Springs Of Fiathead
Valley.
Samples of Oil from the springs in
the Kintla lake district of Flathead
county have been received by State
Auditor J. H. Calderhead and his as
sistant, o. M. Holmes, who are joint
owners with Charles Emmons in 1000
acres of oil and in that district, says
the Record.
When the bottles of oil are held up
to the light they are deep red in
color, except one,- which is almost
black. They have ben pronounced by
California experts to be superior to
the oil of that state, the general rule
being that the quality of Oil is higher
the farther north it is found. Analy-
SEES made in Toronto about year ago
are as follows:
No. l: specific gravity 800; light
oils boiling below 800 degrees, lis
per cent; Illuminating oils boiling
from 800 to 518 degrees, So per cent;
lubricating oils boiling from SIS to
572 degrees, Is per cent; heavy oils
and residue, Is IL per cent.
No. 2: light oil, none; burning oil,
IL per cent; heavy oil, 50 per cent.
No. 3: light oil, 3.6 per cent; burn
ing oil 1854 per cent; heavy oil, 60 per.
cent.
These samples came from the lower
Kintla lake district on the north fork
of Flathead river and tributaries.
Throughout this whole valley extend
ing down to Flathead lake on the
south, across the main range OF the
Rockies on the east and across the
boundary into Canada on the north
the oil is found in springs which seep
from the sandstone and brea rock.
The country formation is sandstone
and shale, which is the true oil forma-
ton and is entirely different from that
on the east side of the range. The
oil is also found oozing from the rocks
1000 feet up the side of the noun
tains and is there much purer, having
undergone process of natural refin-
ing.
''The first discoverer Of oil in that
country" said Mr.. Holmes to the Rec
ord, was John Sinclair, a saloon
keeper at Great Falls, whose hobby
was to hunt for specimens of all man.

them, for he is a skilled taxldermist.
He had a display of these specimens
in his saloon, and claimed one of
every species of wild animal and bird
IN Montana. He took his whole col
lection to the worlds fair at Chicago,
but it was a financial failure and he
lost his whole collection. He made
his first discovery of oil on one Of his
hunting trips and brought the samples
to me. I sent them east for analysis"

TFaI1IHs the sighf.

Lord Wolseley having lately re-
marked upon the good sight Of the
Beers as one cause at least of their
good shooting, and having ascribed
this good sight to its constant exer-
else in the open air, Mr.. Brudenell
Carter has pointed out that it is not
merely a question of open air, but
of the training of the sight upon
things that are afar off and difficult
to see. VISION" he says, ''ike every
other nerve function, must be cult,-
waited for the attainment Of a high de-
gree of excellence. The visual pow
er of London children is not culti-
vated by their environment. They
see the other side of the street in
which they live, and the carts and
omnibuses of the ethoroughfares. They
scarcely ever have the visual atten-
tion directed strongly to any OBJ
ject which is difficult to see, or which
subtends a visual angle approaching
the limits of visuality; hence the see
ing function is never exerted to any
thing like what should be the extent
of it's powers. With a country child
the case is widely different" Mr..
Carter would like to see place given
to excellence of vision among the va
ricus physical qualifications which
are habitually tested by competition,
and for which prizes are awarded

Birth Rapperg.

In some of the towns of Holland,
especially those which in past times
suffered much from the Spanish in
vaders under King Philip II. of Spain,
there is prevailing the strange Gus
.om of announcing the birth of a
child by hanging to the front door d
rapper or knocker, called ''klopper," ;"
snveloped in linen, lace or cloth.
This usage, still observed, particular
ly by the patrician families, is said
TO derive it's origin from a Spanish
ordinance, according to which sol-
diers seeking quarters were forbid
den to be billetted at houses where
newborn children had arrived. A
half-wrapped up ''klopper" announces
the birth Of a girl; one wholly envel-
oped that of a boy. Modern fashion
demands costly lace, which in some
eases is inherited from generation to
generation, and, again, the lace en-
ployed to be wound round the moth-
er's wedding bouquet is often used
for this purpose. A rapper's red
shield denotes the birth of sons.

The County Ee1 chant.

The country merchsnt is making 9
great talk about the mail order houses
in the big cities who are getting his
trade away from him, but with his out
cry is really making no serious ef-
fort to prevent it, says a. E. Sweet, in
the Advertising World. You csu't
stop people buying where they think
they can buy th cheapest, simply by
the use Of in7eotive. The only way
the country merchant can hope to com.
plete with the mail order houses is by
meeting them on their own ground--by
advertising There is absolutely no
hope for the country merchant until
he correets few of his timeWorn views
about advertising. Advertising is
simply telling what you have to sell,
and the price. It makes no difference
if you ads are rot written by an expert
or illustrated by high priced artist,
you can make them effective and result
producing, if you bear in mind the one
point that an ad should tell about what
you have to sell and lot simply your
self. The advertising done By the
average country merchant is usually
something frightful. He does not con-

slider advertising force BY which he
is to directly increase lis business, but
as kind of legpulling proposition on
the part Of the local newspaper. ANY
old thing will do him in the way of an
announcement, apd the smaller the
space the editor will let him down with,
the better the bargain he imagines he
has made. Some merchants carry
nothing but a stereotype card, year 10
and year out, yet if they stop to think,
they find they have dozens of things
they could sell at less than regular
prices and which, if made known would
attract many buyers from their custom
ers who would other wise send to the
big cities for them. The secret Of
the mail orde business is simply be-
cause their advertisement tell some
thing. ANY kind Of advertisement is
Of course better than none. All sd-
yertising pays in some way or another,
but the merchant who does no aivec.
tising at all, because he is net able to
afford big pages, makes one large mis-
take. II you can't do the best adver-
tisiog, do the best you can What the
best is that you can do many seem very
small but Advertising is something that
pays for itself, and it increases right
along.
