But Some Girls Don't get
Married.

There Is one thing that really does
vex poor little Cupid. He mates to
see 50 many girls in the world I'M
married. 1t isn't right, he grunts.
Every woman ought to sit at the head
Of her husbands table; and n me had
his own way the woman who might
marry and won't would be exported
to an island in the far Pacific
OF course, Cupid Is aware that there
are plenty of women vino have loved
man and lost him and never care
for anybody else again. He sympa-
thiezs with these women. But the
number OF really mice girls VINO never
nave husband or dear little children
and are yet fitted to be such excellent
wives and mothers is appalling.
Cupid complains and looks around.
He wants to find out the reason and
from inquiries he has caused to he
made he finds that them eddling moth
er is at the bottom of the trouble
as a rule.
she is one Of these good creatures
who always says the wrong thing and
never do the right action. A man
comes to the house. See raloes up
all the things that are likely to annoy
MIN. She asks him was it his siser
who was expelled from school or
young Browns sister.
1t doesn't matter when 1t was. She
mas said the wrong thing. If it were
his sister, he will cate her for men
tioning the fact; II 1t were young
Browns sister, ne will be furious with
her for confusing the girl with his
sister.
Sne will, just at the time when he
is feeling very sentimentally inclin-
ed toward her little daughter say:
oh, Maudie, dear, do you remember
the day you got into such an awful
temper and kicked the cat?"
And poor Maudie, who is really
in love did not want him to know
that she could ever be tempted 10
kick a cat or get naughty temper.
A meddlesome mother does more to
prevent girls getting married than
all the other foes of Cupid put to-
gether. Plague on her, says Cupid.

DANGER In
FOREST fires.
Loss Of Timber Increases the
Possibility Of Floods and Was
ties the Supply Of Water.

When We destroy or allow fires 10
destroy the forest on land which is
suitedonly to g row forest We do more
damage than destroying trees. Noun
tain forests-and most great forests
are In tce mOuntains-conserve the
streams. AS the mountain forests
are destroyed, We have worse floods
and more of them, and there is less
water in the streams during the dry
season.
When tee rain falls upon the for
est, 1t reaches the ground slowly; it
soaks into the layer of rotten leaves
and wood with which ground in a
forest is covered, it gradually and
steadily passes Through this layer to
that great storage reservoir, formed
mostly of rock far below the surface
from whioh all living streams are
fed.
but If the forest is cut down, tie
sun and the wind dry up and scatter til
layer formed of leaves and branches
and fallen trees and 1t disappears. II
fire runs over it, it disappears even
more quickly. Then when tee rain
falls on the bare ground which is left
very little soaks into 1t. The blanket
is gone and tie water runs off the
surface very mucn as II does off the
ASPHALT pavement.
1t fills the streams 50 full that their
banks can not hold them, and there
suit is floods which cost both lives and
money. But the misuse of the forest
in its effect upon the stream goes
farther still.
Irrigation is an expensive business
at tee start, because the best of the
water often requires great and costly
reservoirs and dams. For this reason
the Government is spending more than
ten million dollars year In the con-
struction of great irrigation works.
When tney are completed the water
they store will irrigate enough land TO
feed many millions of people. But
1t win feed them only so lang as the
forests are preserved at the head
waters Of tie streams on which the
reservoirs depend, and no longer. If
the forest on TIE headwaters OF these
streams We're gone not only would
the water overflow the reservoirs in
flood and be wasted, but 1t would fail
in the dry season when 1t is needed
most.

with waves and opposing currnets
Purpose gives man ever new progressive
relations of his possibilities. It means

Another Kind of Pool.

There Is a movement ON foot fos-
tered by the various county unions of
the Society of Equity bordering ON
Green and Barren Rivers looking to a
gigantic pool for the control Of
freight rates. An agreement has been
drawn up and Is beeing largely signed
In the different counties in which
the signers agree to ship all freight
by the steamboat line that will agree
70 take 1t at the schedule rate set out
In the agreement. These>-rates are
made scaling with reference to dis
lance, and are said to be a substan-
tial reduction from the rates now In
effect by the Bowling Green and
Evansville Transportation Company.
The prime movers In the enterprise
are Capt N. IT. Howard, w. H. Cald-
well, j. e. Render and J. G. Whaaen,
all prominent Equity men The plan
proposed is to get as many shippers
as possible to go into five-years OBJ

CUPID THE WINNER
Young Couple Elople From New York and Come
to Twodot on Honeymoon
Parents Wealthy.

For the past week social circles in
the hoSpitable town of TWodot have
been taxed to the limit to pay hon.
age to Mr.. and Mrs. Gillette Wells, an
eloping couple, just arrived from
Corning, New York The romantic
pair are the guests of Mr.. and Mrs.
E. G. Baxter, who are Old friends of
the family of both the bride and the
groom back in the Empire state.
Parties, receptions and balls have
been run off in rapid and endless sue
cession, and it has been many years
since the town has been so stirred
with social pleasure.
The story of the courtship, elop-
ment and marriage of the young
couple is truly romantic. The home
of the bride, who is about Is years of
age is in Corning, near the east end
of Lake Erie, New York, her father
is a wealthy glass merchant. The
groom, 20 years Of age, also lived near
Corning; his father is well known
banker and tinancier. For several
years young Wells has been attend
ing college and during his course he
has been able to save about $4,000 out
The Harlowton news. [volume] (Harlowton, Mont.) 1909-1914, 1909-02-19

of his school allowances. Strict econ
omy has enabled the bride also to lay
aside snug sum. The young people
were invited out one evening to a
party given at a neighbours house. On
the evening of the event, the young
couple were absent, on being asked
the cause, young Wells informed his
friends that his sweetheart had been
taken suddenly i'll. Late at night the
happy pair hied themselves to Buffalo
and from there into Canada, where
they were married. They left on the
next train for the west and arrived in
Twodot the first of the week. They
were looking for a small town in
which to hide while spending their
honeymoon at the same time to enjoy
the hospitality their station demand
ed. Twodot has proved to be the
ideal spot.
The parents of the elopers are ig-
norant of their whereabouts, and it
is believed that the state of New
York is being searched for the miss
ing children. Mr.. Wells will leave
for Helena shortly and it is likely he
will pitch his tent in Montana, and
try his lot in the land of the cowboy.

during the week looking over some
contract work. He states that as
soon as the frost is out Of the ground
big force will be put to work at the
Summit. ii is the intention of the
company to cut down the grade at
that point for distance OF twelve
miles.
The contractor says that it is big
undertaking and will require the eX

The ascent at the Summit is much

the loss of time and power. This diff
fculty will be remedied by the work

much other improvement in the road
