MUSICALE AND RECEPTION.
Delightful Entertainment BY Ladies of
st. Luke's Guild.
From Thursdays Daily Gazette.

From Thursdays Daily Gazette.
A delightful entertainment was CIV
en- last night at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Charles F. Burton, for the bene,
fit of the Episcopal church. The af-
fair was under the auspices of St.
Luke's guild and consisted Of a musi-
Gale, which was followed by a recep-
ton.
The rooms of the lower floor which
were all thrown together for the &C.
casion, were lavishly decorated with
smilaX, ferns and 1ozens of deep hued
carnations in warm, red shades. The
incandescent lights were yelled in
red tulip shades, and interviewer with
feathery asparagus lerns The a
tells and doorways were prettily drap-
ed with ropes of smilaX, and shower
boquets of the long stemmed carna-
tions, were placed about with artistic
effect.
The refreshment room fairly glowed
with red decorations. The electrolier
was wound with ropes of smilax, fes-
toons of which were extended to the
of the table, where they were
held in place with graceful bows Of red,
the ends of which dropped over to
the opposite of the table. The
enter arrangement was completed by
a shower of red carnations, resting
upon a beautiful Battenberg center
piece, which was lined with red.
Sprays of feathery ferns were arrang-
ed promiscuously about the table and
the entire effect was highly pleasing.
Mrs. Burton was assisted in receiv-
ing the guests by Mesdames, A. T.
Gesner, Mrs. H. S.. Williston and Miss
Minnie Panton. 40.

FEAR NO LOSSES.
In Northern Montana are
Not Alarmed.

Not Alarmed.
From Wednesdays Daily Gazette.
The sheep and cattlemen Of the
northern part of the state are no more
alarmed concerning the condition of
stock on the ranges than are those of
this section. They say the cold has
not been eve enough to cause suf.
fering to the animals, while the snow
that fell was sadly needed. Comment
ing on the situation the Great Falls
Tribune says:
For the "a hours ending at 6
o'clock last evening, the temperature
here ranged from 10 below zero to 2
above, and at that hour it was 1 be-
low and slowly falling. The barome-
trio pressure during the day was ex-
tremely high and there was no indi-
cation of a chinook, but the Helena
weather observer predicted slightly
warmer weather for this vicinity. If
the cold should continue, the cutting
of ice will be begun tomorrow morn
ing.
"Some of the newspapers on the
west side of the range, which are we'll
informed on nearly all subjects except
live stock, have given currency to
some alarmist reports concerning the
probable effect of the cold weather
upon sheep and cattle. Reports from
The Tribune's correspondents in all
parts of the range country are to the
effect that the storm can do no dam
age and, in fact, has been welcome
to the stOckmen, whose only regret is
that there is so little snow accompany
ing the cold wave. In the first place,
cattle do not freeze to death; the loss
in very bad weather is due to their
starving. At present, in no part of
the range country, is there sufficient
snow to cover the grass, and while
there is NO more snow and no wind,
cattle can live for many weeks in such
weather. They are fat-never before
were they so fat at this season of the
year-and there is an abundance of
good grass. Any reports of loss or
suffering of cattle at present are pipe
dreams or tales told for the benefit
OF that county official who gets very
busy the LIST of March.
eff sheep should freeze to death,
the fault is solely that of the owner,
and there is no probability of any loss
of sheep in northern Montana. All
sheepmen in this vicinity have good
shelter for their 1ocks and there is
no danger of their starving to death.
There has never been a season when
sheepmen were so we'll supplied with
hay at this time of the year, and there
would be no loss of sheep if the cold
weather should continue to the list of
March or later.
"The only difficulty against which
sheepmen have to contend is a scare
ity of water, and for that reason they
would welcome much more snow.
Many of the usual watering places
have long been dry, and if the pres
ent snow had not come, some owners
in Choteau and Teton counties would
have been compelled to seek new
ranges. The present snowfall, though
light, will give more water, and more
snow will be beneficial, not harmful.
"All owners of live stock were pre-
pared for the cold snap, and if the
weather is not much more severe,
they will be singing hosannas when
the loco blooms again."

FREE RURAL DELIVERY.
Continuance of the Service Depends
on Good Roads.

In the forthcoming report of Super
intendent Machin Of the free delivery
service there will be an extended dis
cussiOn of the necessity Of good roads
in the extension and maintenance of
the service. Heretofore it has been re-
quired that in the establishment of the
service first consideration should be
given to the condition Of the roads. 1t
has developed that inspectors have only
specifically considered this question.
Recent official inquiries disclose the
fact that portion of the roads Of more
than 1000 Of the $500 routes now in
operation requires some repairs. While
the roads in the southwestern states, as
rule. are in good condition there are
sections where repairs are regarded as
essential in order that an uninterrupt-
ed service may prevail during all the
year. Several months ago announce
ment was made that there were routes
in Wisconsin. Illinois, Minnesota, the
DakOtas and Iowa where the service
would be discontinued unless repairs
and improvements reported to the de-
partment as necessary were made. In
most of these cases the warning of the
department has been needed. 1t Is evil
dent. however. in several instances that
no serious consideration has been given
to the announcement Of the postmaster
general in this connection.
In such cases the department is ad-
vising road supervisors and other in
terested officials that the lack of care
given to the roads covered by rural
routes will, II continued, endanger the
permanency Of the service. In discuss
Ing this question today Superintendent
Machin expressed the opinion that ru-
raj delivery would eventually solve the
question Of good roads.

1t was Il cold day. and the wind was

street car. leaving the door open, much
to the discomfort of an old gentleman
who sat next. AS the wind chilled his
marrow his temper rose. Leaning
across his seat and taking the kid by
his ear, he said: "Were you brought up
in a barn? Why don't you shut the
door," The boy said nothing, but
closed the door, coming back to his
seat in tears. This sight moved the

In the days when the dread Loaf
was dear careful mothers had set of
thrift sayings which are seldom heard
In this time of the big. cheap loaf.
Crumbs were regularly swept up and
kept for some useful purpose. If n
child threw crumbs In the fire. the old
fashioned mother lifted a warning fin
ger and said. "lf you throw crumbs In
the fire. you are feeding the devil"
Children were told that the better part
OF a loaf was the crust. and when n
child was sent TO the shop for bread
the order was to ask for "a crusty
loaf" If a child left its crust, came the
warning: Yes. my lady Tor my laU.
