The decision in the Taggart divorce
case at Wooster, Ohio, by which the
father was given charge of the chill
dren was probably choice between
two evils. Divorces where children
are involved are deplorable even if
unavoidable There can be no divis-
ion Or arrangement that will be salts
factory to both parties. Then. again,
the children may be divided in affec-
ton as regards their parents. In the
Taggart case one child clings to his
mother and will have to be torn away
if the decree of the court is carried
out. 1t may be in the line of justice
and for the good of the child and Of

KEEP YOUR POLICY.

Policyholders in the big life insuI-
ance companies now under investiga-
ton in New York should not become
alarmed. The companies are finan-
cially sound. The fact is they have

es which have accumulated chiefly
through deferred dividends. Instead
of dividing the money up among pol.
iCyhOlderS it has been used in specula-
ton and in paying enormous salaries.
Funds to protect pOlicyho.ders are Sc
cure. The Great Falls Tribune, in a
recent editorial, taking the view of
many papers throughout the country
deprecates the action of the insured
IN surrendering their policies. The
Tribune makes the following points
which should appeal to the thoughtful
consideration of policyholders:
"A great many life insurance policy
holders throughout ,he country are
surrendering their policies, according
to all accounts. That is a most absurd
thing for policyholders to do. Their,

from what would have been dividends
to the policyholders. The principal IS
still intact. Those who surrender their
policies will only hurt themselves
The companies. or rather the remain
ing policyholders, if we are to have
honest management in the future, will
be the gamers from such surrenders
practically all policies provide that
there shall be no return if a policy
is surrendered within three years. II
surrendered after that the proportion
al payment is much smaller than the
policy is really worth to the holder.
Further than that the lapsing policy
holder is growing older, and can not
take out a policy in any other COM
pany at as favorable rates. Hence the
surrender of a policy is the height Of
unwisdom.
"As a matter of fact the policies
in probably every insurance company
are worth more than they were before
this investigation began. We did not
then know how rotten the management
of the companies was, and We drifted
along in confidence. Now we know
the worst, or shall before this investi-
cation is completed and the end Of the
insurance scandals reached. And at
the very worst we may expect that
the brazen stealing that has been 60
ing on will be stopped-at least for a
good many years. Even the compan-
les that have been honestly managed
in the past are likely to be more care
full for time. And If we can devise
laws that will really meet the case,
theft may be stopped permanently.
Therefore the policy that has yet some
years to run is practically sure of earn
ing more money for its owner than
It would have done if this scandal had
not become public"

Henry lrvjnQ,

The curtain falls, the footlights

Dies out, and all is dim.
All, oft hereafter shall it flare,
But nevermore on him.
He hears not now the prompter's call
Nor thudrous plaudits roar;
The kingliest actor of them all
Shall speak his lines no more.
No more as Richelieu he holds
His calm, unscrupled sway.
No more. as ruined Shylock, IONS
His cloak and sinks away.
That face is calm where men coulc
see
All change and passion flame.
The King is but memory
A spirit and name.
But while within the human neart
The passions leap and thrill;
The memory of his sovereign ART
Shall stir our pulses stiH.
He will not tread the eartnly STAGE
Yet We shall feel his thrail-
The master player of his age
The kingliest of them all!

CAN GET ALONG WITHOUT 1T.

Notwithstanding that Fergus coun-
ty is never going to receive any great
benefit from the national scheme OF ir-
rigation it does not follow that our
people are unconcerned in the pro-
iects taking form for the reclamation
of lands in various parts of the state.
Believing that what contributes to the
upbuilding of a large region of the
state helps the whole, everyone hopes
that there will be no unnecessary de-
lay in the work of recovering vast
areas by irrigation.
While Fergus county contains nc
large streams from which water can
be diverted it is possible that the
mountain ranges afford suitable sites
for storage reservoirs, though the gov
ernment surveyors who have been Ov.
er the county have offered very little
information in that direction. If there
are such locations they should be des
ignated and somee attempt made to
secure government recognition of them
as soon as possible.
1t is safe to say however, that all
minor irrigation projects will have
to rest until the larger ones are com
pleted, the demand throughout the
arid regions of the west being so much
greater than the amount of money
available for irrigation purposes.
Fortunately, Fergus county is not
SO much in need of government aid
as some other counties of the state
Despite the fact that it has no large
water courses, it has numberless small
streams flowing from the various
mountain ranges, which afford consid
cradle water for stock and irrigation
purposes. With a light fall of snow
during the winter, especially a sinai
accumulation in the mountains, some
of the streams fail during the sum
mer but this is an exception rather
than rule. 1t is safe to say, then
that Fergus county is blessed with as
much natural water as any other cOun
ty of its size in the state. Add to the
continuous flow of water in the creeks
the moisture from the clouds, and the
showers that follow the mountain
ranges in midsummer, it will be
admitted that only small portion OF
the county is in what might be called
the arid belt
low bench lands and mountain foot
hills, Fergus is destined to become
great agricultural and grain-grow
ing county.
That this region will have its
drouths and partial crop failures, i:
certain. but the great agriculture
areas of the Mississippi valley are no
exempt from damage in some way
sometimes too much moisture, which
is not likely to occur in Montana.
AS matter of fact we have hat
touch of the drouth this season, thu
rains terminating too early in the sum
mer for bumper crops of grain. Still
the yield will be large.
If Fergus county is never to receive
any direct benefits from national irri
cation there is some consolation in tn
thought that it can get along yer,
well without it.

varied phases Of American industrial
and agricultural life and the many
processes involved, with which they
have to make themselves familiar.
Such talent is sought for and is well
recompensed. Educated and able
young men fill these positions. The
millions upon millions of dollars that
have been added to the wealth of the
south by such work are beyond com
prehension. While the creation OF
good railway facilities has been the
chief factor in the phenomenal devel-
opment of the south in recent years,
it is evident that but for the work
of these land and industrial depart
ments the process of growth would
have been immensely longer than it

A Judicious Inquiry.

A we'll known travelling man who
visits the drug trade says he has oft
en- heard druggists inquire of custom
ers who asked for a cough medicine,
whether it was wanted for a child or
for an adult, and if for child they
almost invariably recommend Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. The reason
for this is that they know there is
no danger from it and that it always
cures. There is not the least danger
in giving it, and for coughs, colds

The Friqass Esrd.

Frigate birds are really to the sea
what hawks are to the hand, and this
sopposition is supported by the testi.
mony OF a gentleman whO has studied
them very ciosely-Mr. Palmer. tha
gentleman who made the Hon. walter
Rothschild's wonderful collection Of
sea birds and their eggs. He records
that at Layson he often noticed the
fIlgate birds snatch a young one from
a nest and eat It. Sometimes, be says,
the parent bird would give chase. but
the matter always ended By one or the
other eating the young bird They
would even take young birds cut OF
the nest that were nearly fun fiedged.
Now that is a truly diabOlical eharac-
teristic. not shared by any other sea
bird, and hardly to be surpassed by
the allembracing yoracity and ferOc.
ity Of the yulture. There can. ] think
be but little doubt that the ffigate
bird is a close relation Of the pelican.
but his habits certainly entitle him to
be called the vulture Of the sea. All
naturalists agree that they are never
sn swimming. certainly have never
seen one do so. and as for walking
on land. il is almost an impossihllity
for them. They are said TO roost up.
on the branches of trees, most IN
usual thing tor sea birds to do. and
Nj not deny the possibility OF this.
But whenever have seen them
ashore. they have roasted and laid
their eggs and incubated among rag
ged rocks. where, by the aid Of their
/ wings, they could nutter heavily from
one irregnlaTity to another. A fat
surface to walk upon is useless TO
them. Their method Of feeding again
is pesuiarly hawk-liSe, and different
froLl that OF an other sea birds. So
great an authority and careful AN OBJ
server as Charles Darwin. while not
stating that the trigate bird snatch
/ es It's food from the sea surface. says
that il the ofal, etc which they desire
sinks more than six or eight inches be
low the surface Il is lost TO them, as
they cannot dive like any other sea
fowl. He also notes that such is their
power OF maneuyering upon the wing
that they can. and do. snatch the
Just hatched turtles on their toddline
way down the beach 10 the sea from
the pit where they were born. To
watch a frigats bird poised, say. a
thousand feet above the sea. almost
usotionIess except for the slow turning
Of the head from side 70 side and the
glance Of the eye beneath, suddenly

how wonderful are the powers given
