People of State.

Wednesday, January 20, the people
of Montana are requested to observe
in a fling manner as being the birth
day of the late President Mckinley.
The movement for this Mckinley
day" had it's origin in Ohio and has
received the sanction of Governor
Nash's endorsement in an address he
has issued to the people. On this day
the school children of the land will be
given an opportunity to make contri-
buttons to the fund required for the
erection of the proposed Mckinley
monument at Canton, o. .
Z Governor Toole has received a copy
of the Ohio governors address and
has been asked to issue a similar one
to the people of Montana, urging them
to hold appropriate services in their
respective churches the Sunday previ-
GUS or on January rs. After consid-
ering the matter Governor Toole de-
cided to issue an address as honorary
member of the national association.
Accordingly he issued the following,
signed by Colonel w. F. Sanders,
chairman of the Montana auxiliary
committee, and F. P. Sterling, secre-
tary:

association mas been organized for the
purpose of raising the money neces-
sary for the erection of a suitable
monument at the grave of William
Mckinley, the late president of the
United States, at Canton, Ohio; and
Whereas, 1t is believed that his
uniform interest in the welfare of the
children of this country, and his &C
knowledgemed regard for religion and
it's temples justify a special appeal to
the schools and churches;
"Wheleas, Wednesday, the goth day
of January, will be the fifth-ninth an
niversary of the martyred president,
we suggest that this day be observed
by all the schools of Montana, with
special exercises, and that at such
time the children be given an oppor-
tunity to contribute to this fund; and
further, that on the Sunday preceding
the 10th day of January, the churches
of the state have special memorial
exercises, affording an opportunity to
those who desire to do SO, to help on
this work by their contributions. Each
person or child making a contribution
is requested to give his or her name
and p%ostoffice address with the contri-
button, sc that a suitable memorial
receipt may be returned therefor by
the National association after a suf-
icient time has been given to prepare
the same.
All remitances may be made to the
member of the committee of the coun-
ty where contributed, or to a place
designated by him, and he will for
ward the same to the American Ma
tlonal bank, Helena, Mont, treasurer"

An oyster cocktail filled her with awe

"All the buildings in America are pie
or ice cream" she says, but 1t must be
understood that pie does not mean
game pie. The Yankee pie Is tart
and Is ubiquitous, she explains.
She sat next to an American man
who ate a lump Of cheese with his
strawberry pie and turned plateful of
Ice cream over both. but she doesn't
know that that is general custom.
The oysters We're good, but had most
impossible names, and the cookies
(meaning clams) are excellent. On the
whole, Yankee food and cooking are
good, but there is too much of the food
on the table at one time.-New York

AN EFFECTIVE REMEDY.
Series OF orders That Rejuvenated
the AiIing Slaves.


the Ailing slaves.
A correspondent sends the following
story OF an old Virginia gentleman:
Some years before the war q gentle
man of large landed interests counted
among his possessions plantation on
the James river. an estate of consider
able dimensions. Other interests Kept
him away from the old place for some
years, during which time there was a
marked decrease in the revenue. Upon
his return TO the plantation he discov-
cred that many of the slaves were laid
up with rheumatism and other miser-
les, the farming implements were in
bad order and the old homestead was
fast going to rack and ruin. Calling
his overseer he said:
Anderson, notice a great many old
wagons, plows and harrows about
the place. Have them brought and
piled In front of the house, and on
Monday next order all the niggers on
the place to be present"
At the appointed time they came.
The pile was set on fire and the imple-
ments destroyed. The following week
he called the oyerseer's attention to the
sick and infirm horses, hogs and cattle
and gave the. same order. When the
negroes had assembled oil the animals
were knocked In the head. The Fri.
day following the landlord again called
his overseer.
Anderson. see great many sick
niggcrs around here--many who seem
to be laid up with rheumatism and are
good for nothing. Give orders that on
Monday morning at 10 o'clock they all
appear In the front yard"
The effect on the slaves was magical.
On Saturday men who had been un,
able to walk We're skipping around like
children; the sick grew well suddenly
and from that time on the plantation
was most prosperous.--Exc

The Disease More Prevalent than Ever and
Quite as Fatal. The Best Treatment.
The grip has surprised the doc
tors and health authorities this season
by its rapid spread and by some novel
symptoms. While it spares nobody
it is proving especially dangerous to
middle-aged and elderly persons. In
many cases either a fatal onset of
pneumonia. or complete breakdown
of health and strength, is apt to fol-
low an attack of grip.
The wise course for all is preven-
ton. By wearing a Benson's Porous
Plaster on the chest and back you
protect the lungs from cold and chill
and with ordinary care) you are
safe from grip.
For those who are already suffer-
ing from grip, or from the usual win
ter coughs and colds, Benson's Plasters
are sure and speedy relief and cure.
Highly medicinal and scientific.
Refuse limitations and substitutes.
Only the genuine are effective. Ex-
