irrigation in the Milk River Valley.

Montana is coming in for a big
share of the general prosperity of the
country, and it will only be few
short years when she will rank with
any of the Northwestern states in
agricultural greatness. The recent
act of the Interior Department of the
United States in setting aside ST ,O0O,-
600 toward retaining three or four
hundred thousand acres in the Milk
River Valley is but beginning of a
much vaster Development of this
section as the needs grow apace. AL
ready the agricultural worth of this
to be famous valley has been
adequately demonstrated in the results
which have followed the irrigation
works already established. 1t has
been successfully proven that all
kinds of agricultural products grow in
great abundance wherever irrigation is
used. The soil is naturally rich and
needs only moisture to make it yield
The Great Northern rail-
way furnishes adequate transportation
facilities, it's main line practically
cutting the valley in two. The fact
that the government has decided to
begin immediate operations will prove
a great incentive to the people OF that
section who have always believed in
the future of their country, and will
open to settlement vast area of rich
land to the homeseeker and investor.

About Rheumatism,

There are few diseases that inflict
more torture than rheumatism, and
there is probably no disease for which
such a varied and useless lot Of
remedies have been suggested. To
say that it can be cured is, therefore,
bold statement to make, but

joys an extensive sale, has met with
great success in the treatment of
TINS disease One application of Pain
Balm will relieve the pain, and

TO permanent cures by it's use. Why
suffer when Pain Balm affords such
quick relief and costs but a trifie?

GENTLEMEN OF ENGLAND.
How Their Claims Were Established
In the Middle Ages.

A curious meeting was held in Lyons
on Jan. A. 1899. The royal commits
soners solemnly sat in council to de-
eide the question if lawyers and doc
tors could be regarded as gentlemen.
1t proved too hard a problem for the
wise heads, and the doctors and law
yers themselves were summoned to
prove their right to gentility. The mat
ter was settled to the satisfaction Of
the professional parties.
In the middle ages of England her
aids went through the counties to eAs
anime into the claims of landholders
to be called gentlemen. There is in en-
istence an interesting list of the dis
qualified, and one reads today the
Who failed to establish the title and
WAS writ among the ignoble. Charles
Anscote, Il representative Of one Of the
oldest families, is registered as ''sA.

though worth not more than $500"
Brooke, an old writer, has given the
world his opinion of what constitutes
a gentleman and his definition has
never been excelled:
1.-The character, or, rather, quality, Of
a gentleman does not in any degree de
pend on fashion or mode or state OK
opinion; neither does it change with
customs, climates or ages. But, as the
spirit of God alone can inspire it, so it
is that quality of heart which is the
same yesterday, today and forever
