SUCCESS rlAdAZtNE

One of che very best magazines that comes 10 the desk of The Star editor is Success. It would be hard to explain in less words than the following the usual contents of the publication and the purpose of it's editors:
 To present to our req iers bird S. eye view of the current news of the month.
 To keep them informed of the great accomplishments and best modern thought in science, invention and social progress.
 To entertain them with brilliant and facinating stories, anecdote and hu- nor.
 To give them inspiration for and help in the hard grind of the daily work of life.
 To give them a thousand and one practical hints for Tightening the bur den of that work.
 To give to our subscribers of record protection against imposture and spe- cfal service in other ways, to the end of making the Success family of sub seribefs a strong, coherent, enthusi- astic clientele of intelligent, optimistic men and women, boys and girls. And, finally, with such body behind us-believers in our honesty and sin ceritv--we hope to exercise in public affairs an influence to be gladly welcomed by the worthy and feared by the unworthy

the Wrights, she has worked very quietly and perfected her machine without fuss or feathers. Her de- scription of the machine has femi- nine touch.
 The outline of the machine is original, though very recently ap- proximated abroad; it is based on a minute study of the wings of the albatross in the Museum of Natural History. The full length of the machine is forty feet, and the three planes are parallel in the curves. l have gone on the principle that if two planes are good, three are bet ter, to support a heavy engine, when the weight is not materially in- creased. The framework is specially selected, straight-grained spruce. The wires holding the planes are the best imported piano wire. The up- per covering of the planes is of the finest unbleached muslin; the lower, which sustains most of the strain, is of seven-ounce army duck. These coverings are substantially sewed on "a departure from a man-made machine"

Why l Left the Woman's Club.

In these days of suffragist furore, the story of former club-woman, told in Woman's Home Companion for November, is particularly inter- esting.
 This woman has taken prominent part in club work. The following story of club election shows why she resigned in disgust.
 Never so long as live will for get that election day Precinct workers and ward heelers may em- ploy less refined methods, but cer- tainly not less effective. The oppo- sition lost. Delegate after delegate cast vote opposed to her sense of right and wrong, yes. and her own wishes, because she lacked the cour- age of her own convictions, because she was afraid of a woman who said I will rule at any cost
 'The closing of the polls was marked by scenes that would have been funny. if, to the earnest club woman, they had not been so pathet- ic. As one of the tellers had full benefit of all that happened. saw hysterical women weep on the neck of our defeated candidate who had herself well in hand. heard mem- bers accuse each other of treachery -and worse. saw husbands come and take their disheveled and tear full wives home in cabs. And | heard the successful candidate say with teeth almost locked:
 I'll teach the women of ito interfere with my plans
 No successful political leader of a graft-cursed municipality ever settled election accounts more sys- tematicaily than did Mrs. Smith. Every plum went to her supporters. No member of the opposition re- ceived the slightest recognition. | The party whip snapped on the air at each announcement of new ap- pointment.

So many papers and men of this day talk so much about the glories of the charityof the rich men that one might be led to suppose that a condition where millions must look to few for charity in order to live was just the thing. Again let it be said that no manly man wants char ity. When a man reaches a point where he does, he has lost his best quality manhood. The ideal is when every man should have a chance to live from lis own efforts and then have to make such efforts to live.

The Glory of Autumn.

There are hundreds of ways man can enloy The good things all of us know, But the best of them all our senses employ Is the blaze which the forest trees show. The deep brown of some spots. the red iatertwine, The yellow, the purple and gold. With splashes of crimson and shn- mach combined The sunlight gives glory untold. When sunlight is fading on mountain and hill And kindles the highlands aname. The beauty enhances, as peaceful and still The glow on the mountains remain. Night comes on apace and darkness will fall, But our minds still the pictures retain Full thoughts Of the last beauty pIc- tnres ot all, And our hearts will silently say come again.

Despite all attacks on the bank deposit guarantee law in Kansas the state bank commissioner gives it his approval and states that there is now in the fund enough money to pay the average loss for three years. And with the increased interest taken in safeguarding the peoples money, it is doubtful if there will be any loss at all in three years.

tural building and the high school at
Bozeman were all furnished with
stone from this quarry. In fact,
there is hardly town on the line of
the Northern Pacific in the entire
state in which cut stone does not ap-
pear in the largest and best buildings.
The quality of the stone has never
been questioned. 1t is superior in
every respect to any limestone in the
Unittd States and is acknowledged to
be the equal if not superior to the
Cleveland grey sandstone, which has
the reputation of being the finest
sandstone in the country We have
an abundance G this material in the
quarry at Columbus. Enough, in
fact, to trim every building which
will be erected in the state of Mon
tana for the next so years, as there
is practically no limit to our deposit.
"We have the making of a per-
manent industry in the state Of Mon
tana, which pays annually from $40,-
600 to 100000 in wages to Montana
union workmen at Montana prices,
which are the highest paid in The
United States. In order to keep this
quarry in operation we must make a
legitimate profit.
THAT is all we have asked or we
will ask, and we come before the
people of this state asking only that
one of its industries shall be protect
ed and that the products of this state
be given preference over those of
Indiana, where the limestone pro-
duced is the cheapest class of build
ing stone known, and the wages are
about one-half of those paid here.
