There is a distinct joy in owning
land, unlike that which you have in
money, in houses, in books, pictures
or anything else which men have de-
vised. Personal property brings you
into society with men. But land Is q
part Of Gods estate in the globe, and
when parcel of ground is decided to
you and you walk over 1t and call 1t
your own it seems as if you had come
into partnership with the original Pro-
prietor Of the earth. Henry Ward
Beecher.

Nix This At Home.

The following simple homemade
mixture is said to readily relieve and
overcome any form of Rheumatism by
forcing the Kidneys to filter from the
blood and system all the uric acid and
poisonous waste matter, relieving at
once such symptoms as backache, weak
kidneys and bladder and blood diseases.
Try it, as it doesn't cost much to
make, and is said to be absolutely
harmless to the stomach.
Get the following harmless ingredi-
cnts from any good pharmacy: Fluid
Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce );
Compound Kargon, one ounce; Com
pound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three Dunes.
Mix by shaking well in a bottle, and
take teaspoOnful after each meal and
again at bedtime.
This simple mixture is said to give
prompt relief and there are very few
cases of Rheumatism and Kidney trou-
bles it will fail to cure permanently.
These are all harmless, everyday
drugs, and your druggist should keep
them in the prescription department !;
if not, have him order them from the
wholesale drug houses for you, rather
than fail to use this if you are affiict-

Circular No. l
The Railroad Commission of
Montana having completed an in
vestigation into the coal supply
now in sight, and to be available
for the use of citizens of this
state during the winter months of
1907 and 1908, and such inquiry
having resulted in the showing
that a coal shortage exceeding
that of the past winter is not only
possible but probable unless steps
are taken to avert it, issues this
circular for the purpose of warn
ing and advising the people of
Montana to put in their coal sup
plies early.
The constantly increasing traffic
of the Railroads, calling for
greater quantities of fuel for en-
CINE consumption, will largely cut
down the supply of coal that has
heretofore been offered CONNER
cially through the coal companies
controlled by the railroads.
The population of this State is
growing, and more fuel, both coal
and wood, will be required the
coming winter than ever before.
With a view to averting a fuel
famine, this Commission earnestly
advises the people of Montana to
arrange for their fuel requirements
as early as possible.
