SILKS AND DRAINS A FIRE.
QUEhT CAUSE OF TYPHOID

Purify These and You VIII Be Safe
From Contagion - Disinfecting
the Only observation-disclosures,
Simple, Safe and Sure Method.
How to keep our homes clean, sweet
and free from germ influences is
question.
While there is no occasion for
alarm, it is always well to be fore
armed on the theory that "An Ounce
of Prevention Is Better Than Pound
of Cure" and no ounce of prevention
has yet been discovered that is more
simple, more direct and more effec-
tive, yet harmless to the human sys-
TEN, than 3orax.
Rorax has been known and used for
generations as purifier and proven
tive against epidemic influences. orig
mating from uncleanly conditions re-
sulting from unsanitary sinks and
drains, and when used as hot soIu-
tion in the proportion of two table
spoonfuls to gallon of hot water
flushed through the offending loca-
tions, removes every trace of disease
germs and renders the pipes clean
and wholesome.
Borax in addition to it's hygienic
qualities, is a household necessity,
and can be used for numberless do
nestle purposes. 1t softens the water,
makes linen dazzling white, will
cleanse every article in the kitchen
or dining room and make it bright,
will prevent moths, soften and whiten
the skin, remove dandruf and cleanse
the scalp, and for cleansing and ster-
ilizing baby's milk bottle and nipple
has no equal.
Borax, unlike every other cleanser
and disinfectant, is absolutely harm
less to the system, and is safe, simple,
economical, and can be purchased at
any druggist or grocery. A dainty
book in colors, called the Jingle
Book" will be sent free to any Mother
sending name and address of her baby
and tops from two one-pound cartons
of "2O-Mule Team" Borax, with sc. in

For State Auditor.

There was u time in the history of
Montana when the Office of state
auditor was no more then its name

accounts against the state we're audited

a clerical duty which the auditor and
his assistants performed. But for

of Harry r. Cunningham, it has been
something more-it has been q live.

that branch OF its work, the SUPER

which do business in Montana, has
been constant and thorough.

the San Francisco disaster was taken

representing fire companies that do
business in Montana that their rates
were too high. He insisted that they
take up the matter and they did so
with the result that he proved his con-
tention was a fair and just one.
Many cities have been rescheduled,
with a consequent reduction OF rates
and others are being put on a lower
basis. This has saved the people of
Montana many thousands of dollars
in premiums, and will save many
more when the rates in all the towns
have been ad justed on the lower
scale.
