Limewater has so many uses It Is

is too much carbonic acid present, the
clear limewater instantly crusts over
to take out marks left by grease spots
which have been removed by stronger
alkalis-in fact. for so many things 1t

with either sweet or linseed oil to a

A Queer frontier Experience,

nal w. S. Harwood tells of q queer ex-
perience that befell the family in the
first year after settling on a farm far
removed from the settlements.
The winter had been unusually long
and severe, and their stock of provi.
sions ran low. 1t was long distance to
the nearest base of supplies. and com.
munication with the outside world had
been cut off. Indians in the neighbOr.

amount of broken glass became mixe(
with the wheat which the Indians left

the family gathered about large table
in their living room and spent the
short winter days picking over the
wheat, kernel by kernel, in order te
free it from the pieces of glass.
For this wheat stood between them

COUNTIES MUST PAY.
Printing Of Briefs in Criminal Ap-
peals CHARGED to Them.


1t is probable that the state will
soon request the various counties to
reimburse it for the money spent in
paying for the printing of briefs in
criminal cases taken into the supreme
court, says the Helena Record. A sec
ton of the law provides that the
counties, and not the state, shall bear
the expense of this printing, and an
effort will be made to collect the old
bills from the counties.
Briefs in criminal cases taken into
the higher court are prepared by the
attorney general or his assistants.
The printing bills are presented to the
state board of examiners and by it
allowed. In the last four years there
has been spent for this purpose about
$500, most of the cases coming from
Silver Bow county.
To collect these old bills from the
counties, it may be necessary to Sc
cure a decision of the courts on the
question. Each board of county COM
missioners will, however, first be in
| formed that the state expects REIN
bursement, and will be supplied with
a certified statement to the effect
that the board of examiners allowed
the bills. In the event that the bills
are not paid voluntarily, suit will be

that if the 2x4 papers of Montana had
their way General Donovan would be

Doubtless the Independent. is of the
opinion that it is at least 6xS paper
and is entitled to admonish Donovan,
while the country press must keep
still. The disease of newspaper big
head seems to be contagious in Hele
ma. Time was when it was confined to
the editorial sanctum of the Helena
Herald, but the Independent seems
to have neglected the fumigating pre-
caution and has fallen a victim to the
malady. Pretty soon we may expect
it to be laid down as the cardinal rule
of newspaper ethics that the country
editor must consult the Independent
or the Herald before assuming to
make suggestions to or criticisms of,
the state officials. If any editor outside
of Helena has notion to suggest that
Donovan is inconsistent and insincere
he had better consult the lndepend.
