SENATOR CLARK WINS
MONTANA LAND SUIT.
| MILLIONAIRE LEGISLATORS PAT
ENTG TO THOUSANDS OF ACRES
ARE DECLARED VALID.
Government Charged Fraud in Securing
GrantS-Supreme Court Upholda De-
cision of Appeals Tribunal.

WASHINGTON, ID. e.. March .
United States Senator Clark of Montana
today won the case against him in the
supreme court of the United States in
which the government sought to have
cancelled patents to Hoo acres of pub
lie lands in Montana, which were alleged
to have been fraudulently secured
The opinion in the case was delivered
by Justice Holmes and upheld the de-
cision OF the circuit court of appeals for
the ninth circuit Justices Harlan and
Brown dissented.
Senator Clark had entered into CON
tract to purchase the land before the
patents were granted and that he had
known or had had good reason to know,
that the proceeding was fraudulent.
Tire government charged that Clark
was not a bona fide purchaser. but the
lower courts took the contrary view,
holding that the Issuance of patents had
the effect of converting his purchase OF
an equity INTO Il purchase of title. The
printed record in the case covered 1000
pages.
This was d civil proceeding instituted
by the government against Senator Clark
Of Montana to secure the cancellation of
ciEhty-two patents to land issued under
the timber and stone act The charge
made by the government in its bill of
complaint was that the patents were
fraudulcntly secured. and it was further
set forth that about eighty of the pat
entces are now under indictment in the
Montana courts.

Fresh Air in Sleeping Rooms.

The lack of fresh air in sleeping
room is responsible for many of the
morning bad feelings. The close, UNI
pleasant taste in the mouth, the uncom-
Portable feeling about the head, the lam
guor of the whole body, are often the re-
suit of poorly ventilated sleeping rooms.
Free ventilation is not always possible
in apartments. When one has large
house, with airy chambers, it is easy to
ventilate properly; but in small bed
rooms 1t is not always possible to admit
fresh air at night without someone tax
ing cold.
Yet one must have fresh air in the
sleeping room. One woman who has
three children occupying one of the
rooms of her tiny apartment always airs
the rooms after the children are in bed
and the last thing before she retires.
She covers the children up snugly, opens
the windows. and, while they are raised,
shakes out the clothes that have been
worn during the day and hangs them
where they will air thoroughly i'll readi-
ness for the morning. The air in the
room is changed and freshened before
she closes the windows.
This is good plan, but, of course.
it is only n poor substitute for the pure
air that ought to be coming into the
room all night. There is simple az
rangement by which this can be pro-
cured. A board about five inches high
should be made to fit into the window.
and it should be hinged in the middle
that it may be the more easily taken out
and in. 1t must be fitted into the win
dow casing just below the bottom of the
sash. The window is then closed as far
as possible with the board in. This
leaves space between the upper aud
lower sash by which the fresh air is
admitted in an indirect way.-Success

NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA
A Desperately Serious Case Cured by
Or. Williams Pink Pills.

Brought to the very verge Of starva-
tion by the rejection of all nourishment.
her vitality almost destroyed, the re-
covery Of Mrs. j. A. Wyatt, Of No. 1889
Seventh street, Des Moines, Iowa,
seemed hopeless. Her physicians utterly
failed to reach the seat of the difficulty
and death must have resulted if she had
not pursued an independent course sug-,
gested by her sister experience.
Mrs. Wyatt says: Il had pain in the
region of the heart, palpitation and
shortness of breath so that l could not
walk very fast. My head ached very
badly and l was seized with vomiting
spells whenever took any food. A doc
tor was called who pronounced the
trouble gastritis, but he gave me no re-
lief Then ! tried second doctor with
out benefit. BY this time had become
very weak l could not keep the most
delicate broth on my stomach, and at
the end of Il month l was scarcely more
than skin and bone and was really starv-
ing to death
Then recalled how much benefit my
sister had got from DR.. Williams Pink
Pills and decided to take them i'll place
of the doctors medicine. 1t proved
wise decision for they helped me rs
nothing else had done. Soon l could
take weak tea and crackers and steadily
more nourishment. In two weeks | was
able to leave my bed. DR.. Williams
Pink Pills were the only thing that
checked the vomiting and as soon as that
was stopped my other difficulties left me.
l have "a vigorous appetite now and am
able to attend to all the duties of my
home. Ipraise DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People to all my friends because
I am thoroughly convinced of their
merit"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold by all
druggists and by the DR.. Williams Med
