"DONT WORRY,


Don't worry. In the tangled slSein
OF life a worrying thought
But complexities the kinds of pain
And tightens UP each knot
Make VIII the master of your mood;
Through anxious fear and doubt,
No peace. no pleasure and no good
Was ever brought about
Don't worry Do the best you can,
And let Hope conquer care.
No more is asked of any man
Than he has strength to bear
The back = fitted for the load:
Your burdens all were planned:
And II you sing along the road
Kind Fate will lend a hand
Don't worry Fortune is a dame
You have TO WOO with smiles.
Whate er her mood you must not blame
Nor CritiCise her wiles.
Trust God in shadow and in sun,
And luck will come your way,
But never since Old Time begun
Has worry won the day.

Deer Lodge, Oct. o.--The encounter in

again be aired in court. Now Mrs. Lam
caster has brought charge of assault and
battery against Mrs. Slaughter before JUS
ticc Of the Peace Rippngalc Of Garrison

comment, interest in the outcome of the
trial is keen.
