how-she seemed to watch over me in a
silent manner-that / was at Carlton,
and the letter came the day before my
departure.
1t was a letter wholly of cheerfulness
and hope for h future-I appreciated
the bravery of a woman who under her
circumstances could write this, think
ing wholly of my fortunes and nothing
of her OWN. She had heard, she said,
of the great progress I was making,
and she was confirmed in her belief
that I should be a great man, a benefit
TO my State-how; easily women make
heroes of undeserving men whom they
would help. She sent me Christmas
greetings in my home, she said, and
ended by wishing me all prosperity and
all happiness.

would be Mortified to be told that he or
she, falls shorts of cleanliness, yet such
is the case even when one prides her.
self on personal daintiness.
You cannot be clean If you do not
take at least n bath each day. II
that seems like a harsh jugdment try
going for two days without a bath,
then wipe off the skin with cold cream.
The condition of that cloth is an I'M
pleasant revelation.
The daily bath need not be in a tub,
but it should be more than the British
cold sponge that with many does duty
for cleanliness. Cold water, nc matter
how invigorating, does not remove soil.
A bath to be cleansing should con-
sist of plenty of hot water-soft, Il
possible-a pure. soap and a scrubbing
brush, and plenty of friction in drying.

Fatal Fall From Bridge,

GREAT FALLS, Dec. 20. - David
WEIGH, q carpenter, who made his
home In Butte until recently, and who
for several months has been employed
in repairing Great Northern bridges
in this part Of the state, was instantly
killed this morning by falling from q
bridge near Collins to the bottom of
q coulee below, a distance of 100 feet.
WEIGH was on his way to Collins to
get his dinner, with q number of other
carpenters, when the accident occurred.
He was rashly walking along the ex.
IRENE edge of the bridge, while his
companions we're walking between the
rails. Suddenly he gave a lurch and,
with a scream, disappeared over the
edge. BY the time the other men had
reached his side at the bottem of the
coulee he was dead. The body was
taken to Conrad, where 1t is being
prepared for burial. Welch's body
was badly mangled in the fall, every
one of his limbs being broken.
