NEW MINING COMPANY.
Organized to Operate in Bear Creek
Coal Region.

Red Lodge, Mont, Nov. 26.-The
well known Bear creek coal district,
five miles east of Red Lodge, is un-
d%oubtedly on the eve of great develop
of a railroad from Bridger to the coal
field. The deduction is made from the
fact that the Bear Creek Coal COM
pany, capitalized at 5000, 600, complet-
ed it's organization here yesterday and
it's articles of Incorporation are now
filed in the Office of the county clerk.
The organizers and stockholders are:
Christian Yegen OF Billings, P. NJ.
Gallaher of Bozeman, B. E. Vail and
Miss l.. H. Yerkes of Red Lodge and
Walter Lamport and Robert Leavens
of Bear creek. Each of these have
actually subscribed for ten shares OF
stock, amounting to $4,000.
The first move of the new company,
it is said, will be to build a wagon
road into its property and begin de-
velopment work at once. Billings is
its principal office, but its operations
will be mostly on Bear creek. The
articles of Incorporation authorize it
to do a townsite business as we'll as
mining.
George T. Lamport, who is connect
ed with the Montana coal properties,
says that the formation of the CON-
pany undoubtedly means the speedy
development of the field. Other large
interests involved are those of North
western improvement company, of the
Northern Pacific, and the Anaconda
Copper company.

How Strong is n state.

In vision Nebucha dneZzar beheld a great image. This image was mighty his brightness was excellent, his as pect terrible; his head was of fine gold his breast and arms of silver, his belly and thighs of brass, his legs of iron., his feet part of iron and part of clay. And when the feet, that were of iron and clay, were smitten they brake in pieces. Then was the ron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold broken in pieces togeth- CT, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfoors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them.
 And so will it ever be until clay is no longer mixed with iron in the feet. The glory and splendor and wealth of statues and states may be i'll the brass and silver and fine gold of other parts of the body, but their strength is in the feet; and their glory and splendor and wealth are as ndught in the day of trial, if the feet break by reason of the clay that is in them. No state is stronger than the strength of intel hgence and virtue in the lowest stratum of it's citizenship. Especially is this true of the democratic state of the children of the poorest and the humblest as a means of self-preserva- ton for state and society,

can heartily recommend Peruna as a catarrh remedy. Mrs Elmer Fleming.
 Treat Catnrri in Spring.
 The spring is the time to treat catarrh. Cold, wet winter weather often retards a cure of catarrh. If course of Peruna is taken during the early spring months the cure will be prompt and permanent. There can be no failures if Peruna is taken intelligently during the favorable weather of spring.
 As systemic catarrh remedy Peruna eradicates catarrh from the system wherever it may be located. It cures catarrh of tie stomach or bowels with the same certainty as catarrh of the head.
 If you do not derive prompt and satis- factory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement of your case and he will be pleased to give you his valuable ad- vice gratis.

SOVTHERN 1 EDUCATION l
WHY RURAL LIBRARIES
Are Supplement 10 the School Education and Broaden the
 Horizon of the Reader.

"fhe difference between the educat- ed man and the uneducated," says
 President Schurman, lis that the ed
 ucated man sees more, feels more, wants more, is interested in vastly
 greater variety of thinos, and, i'll
 short, lives a larger, richer and a fuller life. He is haunted by thoughts and touched by emotions and moved
 by ideals which are incommunicable to him who has not been nourished at the breasts of human science and culture" It is the business of the school to initiate the child into this larger life. Yet it is lamentable fact that the boys and girls of the rural communities of the south are getting from the public school practically no help in this direction. A child may learn to read and to write and to manipulate numbers, may learn the rules of grammar and rhetoric, may memorize and recite the mere lists of facts which pass for geography and history-may do all this well, and yet go out into the world with his horizon but little broader than if the school had never existed.
 The business of the school is to ini- tiate the child into civilization. But civilization is not embodied in the formal studies: reading, writing, aritnmatic, grammar. To give the child these is to give him his instru- ments, his tools; but to give him no more is to leave him without inspira- tion and guidance. These tools are made useful only in so far as the child has opened up to him the realms of nature and of humanity. Through the use of these instruments the child may enrich his own life by appropri- ating the accumulated experience of the race. This experience comes to him in the main in the form of books. The most vital endowment which the school gives to the child is the con firmed reading habit directed by a cultivated taste. With this endow- ment the most remote community is put in touch with civilization; the child of the district is made the citi- zen of the world. But this reading habit can not be cultivated in the ab- senee of books. Without the rural district library, the rural school must fail in it's most important function.

Consolidation of Schools.

The cause of consolidation of schools continues to win favor in high places. It is now advocated by every state superintendent of public in struction of the south, by an over whelming majority of county super intendents, by most teachers, and by goodly number of those who have children in the schools.
 Within the last two years the ma iority of the governors of the states have urged legislation to prevent the further subdivision of schools and to increase consolidation. In Tennessee, both Gov. McMillin, in his last mes sage. and Gov. Frazier in his first message to the legislature, urged such legislation in the strongest terms. Gov. Frazier says:
 "My investigation leads me to the conclusion that in many counties of the state there are too many school districts and too many schools. The school fund is scattered among nu- merous small and weak schools, thns limiting the capacity and effectiveness and shortening the term of all. A small school is always weak school; is has not the vital and growing pow er that numbers give.
 "One of the crying needs of our public school system in Tennessee is reasonable and practical consolida- tion. The tendency in cur state to multiply rural schools so as to locate a public school near to every mans door has caused a great waste of pulp lie money and has seriously impaired the efficiency of our public schools, We need, above all things. stronger schools and longer school terms"

The Best Way to Teach History.

The idea of object teaching, the founda- tion of the Froebel system of instruction, has in recent years met with general accept ance and adoption in almost every branch ol education, high and low, with resultant ben eiits which are beyond question. Even such subjects as grammer and arithmetic are now taught in this way so far as practicable, and with marked advantage over the old dry and abstract method. The practice of teaching history by making pilgrimages to the very scenes where great historical events have occurred is an application of the same principle and much more valuable in the way of impressing he reality of history upon the minds of the young than any amount of mere textbook instruction could be. \ re cent issue of the "FourTrack Series" pub lished by the New York Central manage ment, gives a description of the historical sites in the immediate vicinity of New York. which will be of exceeding value for the guidance of teachers and others who desire to adopt this method of historical study One of the best ways to develop civic pride and promote good citizenship lies ill this very direction, an increase of knowledge of local history being accompanied with an in crease of interest in matters of local govern ment and higher concern for what affects the welfare and good name of the eommu- nity.-From Leslie's Weekly

urine, infrequent and too frequent urinary discharges tell of kidneys out of order.
 Deans Kidney Pills cure all kidney ills from common baekache to dan gerous diabetes.
 A. T. Rtenour, owner of the wood yard at 1s5 East Cork Street, Win chester, Va, says: Ever since 1 had La Grippe l have been a sufferer from kidney troubles, which made themselves apparent in racking pains through the region of the kid neys and across the small of my back. The pains were always se- we're, and sometimes so sharp and biting that they compelled me to take to my bed. The kidney secre- tions furnished further evidence of disorders. They were off color, ir- regular, and painful of passage. Added to this there was an annoying weakness. The newspaper advertise ments of Doan's Kidney Pills attract ed my attention, and l procured a box of that remedy at Franck Baker & Sons drug store. The relief l ex- perienced was magical. The pills lifted me from my bed of sickness, placed me on my feet, and made me well man. I can work as well as ever. Doan's Kidney Pills, I believe. saved my life. They are a great remedy to stop kidney troubles re | sulting from colds"

One Answer for All.

Lancaster, N. Y,, Mar 50th.-Postmaster Remers IS still in receipt of many letters asking If his cure has held good.
 It will be remembered that some time ago the particulars of Mir. Remers case were published in these columns. He had been very low with Diabetes. Physicians could do nothing to save him and he grew worse and worse till some one recommended Dodd' Kidney Pills. A treatment of this emaiy was begun and when eIght boxes had been taken MT. Remers began to see an improvement which continued as the treat ment proceeded till he Was completely re- stored.
 He has since enjoyed perfect health and is as robust and able man as any III Laneas- ter. Interviewed the other day he sad:
 Many people wrote to me when the story of my case was first printed and some write to me yet asking If the cure Was only tenn porary and if the diabetes has returned. have only one answer to every body. Three years ago 1 was very low with Diabetes. The best physicians failed to help me and Dodd $ Kidney Pills cured me lam well and strong and have not had the slightest return of the old trouble"

 "Gentlemen," says the spokesman, something must be done to add inter est to the game. l regret to acknowledge that in recent years, despite our efforts to wound maim and kill, the sport has dwindled in public favor. No doubt this is because of the increase in the number of wars, and the familiarity of the pubic with injuries from that cause; also be- cause of the growth of the automobile fad. Hence, as l say, we must do some thing to put more ginger ln the game. The point is, what snail we doE'
