Laughter as An Aid to Digestion.

Nothing else will take the place
of good cheer and laughter at
meals or any other time in the
home. There is avital connection
between amiability and digestion
between good cheer and assimili :
ton. Laughter is the best friend
the liver has, and depression, or
melancholia, its worst enemy.
Numerous experiments have shown
that mirth and cheerfulness stimu-
late the secretion of the gastric
juices, and are powerful aids to
digestion. Yet knowing this,
many of us sit as gloomy and alb
sorbed at the table as at a funeral.
In many homes, acely word
is spoken at meals. outside of re-
quests for an article of food.
The bell which calls the family
to the table ought to be the signal
for a good time generally, when
all cares should be thrown off and
everybody appear at his best. 1t
ought to signalize the time of
mirth and laughter 1t ought to
be looked forward to by the mem
bers of the family as the recess or
incoming is looked forward to by
pupils in school, as a let-up from
the strenuous life. -Orison SWEET

LEWISTOWN. MONT. July 10. 1906.
FOR A SHORT CAMPAIGN.

The Butte Miner is of the opinion
that the people of this state do not
wan a long political campaign mis-
fall and says the indications are that
the politicians will respect their views
in the matter. The Miner cites the
fact that eight counties have adopted
the direct primary election law. which
is likely to make the primaries fall
pretty late in the year, although they
must be held before the middle of
September. The Butte paper also says
that a Republican who is in a posi-
ton to speak with some authority up
on the subject expresses the opinion
that it is likely the state convention
of his party will not be held until
October.
Whether the wish is father to the
thought with the Miner as regards the
length of the campaign. We are un-
able TO say, and whether it has the
right line IN the intentions of Repub-
licanS is also uncertain.
The fact that the new primary law
will prevent some counties from get
ting into the field early will not deter
the great majority of the counties
from doing so if they see fit.
1t is evident from the Miners in
formation that the Democrats prefer
that the Republicans go ahead and
hold their state convention first. as
they did two years ago. But if the
latter do not hold their state conven-
ton until October it will force their
opponents to show their hand or there
will be a shOrt campaign sure enough,
so far as state politics is concerned.
There is no question but Montana
has had too much politics in years past.
The period for campaigning has been
long drawn out. 1t not only exhausted
a candidates strength but his finances
also, This applies particularly to local
campaigns.
There is a chance for reform in this
direction. A month or six weeks is
sufficient time in which to jolly the
utdI people. we OelltNe ca~lHuluateS
for office would prefer a short cam
paisn to a long one.
A political campaign always disturbs
business to some extent, hence it
would seem good policy to remove the
friction as much as possible. Every
Sood citizen and party mar should *
ercise the franchise. He knows his
duty and will perform it without
months of urging. Perhaps he would
be more apt to vote if he didn't be-
come disguised.
Whether the Miner has the situation
sized up correctly or not it is safe to
say that the electorate of the state as
a whole would prefer a short cam
paign in the coming political contest.

CEMENT CROSS WALKS.

Now that the city council is max
ing a start in substituting cement
cross walks for wooden ones great care
should be taken in letting contracts
for such work. There is good and
bad cement. In some Of the cities of
this state. as well as in the older
states of the east citizens and munic-
qualities have been mulcted in large
sums by Door work or an inferior
grade of ement. The first cement
side walks constructed in Lewistown
did not stand the test of time and
weather and had to be replaced with
something better.
There are men engaged in the bus
mess who have it reduced to Il science.
BY constant experimentation they have
the component parts of sand and &C.
ment down to perfection and are ready
to guarantee their work for a certain
number of years.
Everybody would prefer to see local
contractors do the work for Lewis
town. but they should be prepared to
meet outside competitors so far as
quality and durability goes, as cement
crossings are no small item of expense
to the city.
1t is hoped that we have men here
who thoroughly understand the bus
mess, as the putting down of cement
walks TO take the place of plank is
something that concerns property own
ers as we'll as the municipality. Out.
siders have put up the price in the be,
lief that they had a monopolE With
local competitors capable of doing just
as good work and prepared to give
a sufficient guarantee as to its staying
qualities, the price for cement walks
will be somewhere within reason, and
a local industry established that will
grow with the city.
However, it is important that the
city gets its moneys worth now that
cement walks are to take the place
of plank on the busy street crossings.
We understand that the city has
thoroughly protected itself as to the
stability and workmanship Of the cross
walks to be put in by securing a guar.
antee from the contractor.

Ibid NOT CARE FOR HOME

Chicago Chronicle: He did not
care much for home life" This was
the careless remark made concerning
Stanford White the day after Harry
X. Thaw shot and killed him, by a
lifelong acquaintance in New York.
The man who made it gave no sign
that he appreciated what he Vas say
ing. He said White did not care much
for home with the same nonchalance
with which he would have said that
he did not care much for dress or for
driving. He evidently felt that a
mans attachment or want of attach
ment to his home was as much a mat.
ter of taste and therefore as indisput-
able as a taste for oysters or for polo.
Could there be a worse augury for
American society? A decent man al
ways forms an attachment for some
home, even if he has none of his own.
If he has a home of his own, however
humble, and does not care for it, he
is a man who will bear watching. If
he has a palatial home and al inno-
cent and interesting family and abund-
ant means of living and does not love
his home it is safe to say that he is
in one or more ways a bad man.
That this was the status of Stanford
White was one of the very first de-
velopments of the tragedy. He did
not care much-that is, he did not
care a straw-for home life. He had
his lodgings in New York and his wife
had hers in a country home On Long
Island. He had a hopeful o in early
manhood who should have been his
constant companion, but he only seems

TO have beer in the way of his father.
They would take their luncheon at
some restaurant and their dinner at
some club. When night came the
father would make some excuse to the
boy and HE away to N roof garden
and the lonely boy betake himself to
some other.
This was the program on the night
of the shooting. The father could not
enjoy himself in the company of his
boy. He had important business"
which called him away and this inn
portant business appears to have been
a revelry with a number of chorus
girls in a roof garden vaudeville.
If White had cared much for home
and had been at home that night he
would not have been killed. 1t was
his appearance at Madison Square gar
den where the play vas one he had
seen a hundred times and did moi in
terest him at all and where he made
frequent trips behind the scenes that
inflamed the mind of Thaw and led to
the deadly assault. When the mat
ter is sifted down to it's elemental
facts he was killed because 'he did
not care much for home life"
When a man has a virtuous wife
and an elegant home and does NJ are
much for them it is always because
he cares for a lot of other women. and

he is sure to be paid off some time
or other. For a long time he appears
to be cheating fate. but let him not
