Friendless Lodge No. 63II, is
the latest acquisition to @. u. O. of
O. F. circles and is made up large
ly of the young blood who are en-
thusiastic to bring this fraternity
to the front. With the earnestness
displayed and enthusiasm mani

will keep pace with the
times and keep Friendless lodge
well up in the front rank of the
Jurisdiction. At their last meet

doing well both spiritually and
financially. The A. M. Z. church

Our first visit to Montana's Me
tropolis last week in the interes
OF this publication was proftabl,
snd instructive in more than one
way. While we were exceedingly
gratlhied at the reception and en-.
couragement given the PLAINDEAI
Err, we were surprised at the
activity displayed in all walks oi
life and the general prosperity OF
the people, also the public spirit
displayed by all the people regard
less of race, color or creed.
Our short stay necessarily pro-
hibited us from meeting a large
majority of the people, those whom
we did meet we verify believe to
be a fair representation of Butte S
citizenship and they demonstrated
to us beyond peradventure of
doubt that they are abreast of the
times and it is no wonder that the
mining city in the world keeps
pace even with those whose sole
claim for fame is refinement, edu-
cation and culture,
THE PLAINDELER in it's mission
of good and dissemination of news
for the public good, shall always
and at all times have a good word
for Butte, and those who have so
literally encouraged us by their
patronage shall not be disappoint-
cd, for it shall ever be our aim not
only to keep the PLAINDEALER up
to it's present standard, but to i'm
prove it in every way as time and
patronage demand.
One of the most pleasing and
jovial public officials it has ever
been our lot to meet was the Hon. ].
Kennedy, the genial and popu-
lar city clerk of Butte. Mr. Ken
nedy was a very busy man but he
saw to it that we had an audience
with him and he expressed himself
as gratifcd to know that a sub
stantisl organ of our people was in
and assured US of his
good friendship for such manifes-
tations of enterprise and thrift. We
are always glad to meet such public
officials as Mr. Kennedy and moth
ing that we can say or do is too
much for them. As moulders of pub
ic opinion, the coming in contact
With such broadminded and public
spirited citizens, gives us an inspi-
alton which of itself tends to make
,ur work for the uplift ola people
more enobling.
Butte's great department store is
he Hennessy Mercantile Company,
which is some of the largest and best
.ppointed stores of it's kind in the
ntire Northwest; progressive and
lp-to-date it carries a full line of I
verything and the people appre-
late this great house, in fact, it's
ame has spread all over this and 5
states. The manager, {, ;
Kelly, is one ofthe most pleasing l
nd affable gentleman whom we {
ave ever met; ever on the alert for {
be welfare of his patrons and a
ordial greeting to all. They recog
ize energy and ability wherever
hown and encourage the same
long all lines. This spirit has
aimed for house an envlable repu-
alton which marks it as the leader
OF only the lowest prices for the
est goods, but as leaders in every {

LITTLE POCKET PHYSICIAN

HYoMEI INHALER THAT is GUARANTEED
BY F. A. sHURTLEFF co. TO CURE
CATARRH.
Thousands who have been cured by
Hyomei, call the inhaler that comes with
every outfit 1.-THE little pocket physi-
cian," as it ia 80 small that it can be
carried in the pocket or purse.
Prior to the discovery of Hyomei,
statistics showed that at least 81 out of
every 100 persons in this state were suf-
fering from catarrh in some form. The
remarkable results following the use of
Hyomei are shown by the smaller per-
centage to-day of people suffering from
catarrh.
There is really no excuse whatever
for anyone having catarrh now that Hy-
omei ia 80 readily obtainable. If you
have any doubts about its value, F. A.
Shurtleff & Co. will let you have COM
plete outfit with the understanding that
unless 1t cures catarrh, it will not cost
you cent.
A complete Hyomei outfit consists of
"the little pocket physician" medicine
dropper, and a bottle of Hyomei, and
costs but 81, while additional bottles of
Hyomei can be procured for 30 cents,
making it the most economical, as well
as the most reliable treatment for the
cure of catarrh.
Do not delay longer the use of Hyomei,
If you have catarrh. This is purely
local disease, and Hyomei goes right to
the spot where the catarrhal germs are
present, destroys them, sootnes and
heals all inflammation, and makes a per-
manent and lasting cure.
