having been promoter of mining inter-

principal stamping ground was Helena

Ammon is the man who first brought
the Gilt Edge property of Fergus county

Recently he brought suit against the

possession of it. The suit was filed in

nothing for me TO do but stay over

and something quite out OF the ordi-
nary. IL is rich cream brocade with
punches of roses scattered over It's sur
face: roses which are so cunninsiy
shaded that they appear embroidered.
The rest is simple enough; no frills or
fluffs: just close fitting affair reach

tion 10 the dresses and blouses you
have to take. Even with several trunks
il is good packing to provide firm lay

Put the thickest skirts I'm first, having
folded them as nearly as possible Ia
the lines they take when in wear. and
as you place the skirts in the trunk
see that each is laid In the opposite
direction 90 the one last put in. II the
waistband OF one skirt comes at the
left hand OF the trunk, see that the
waistband OF the rext comes at the
right hand. Attention 60 this keeps the
level in the box. for naturally the hem
end OF a skirt Is it's most bulky part.
