PUBLIC LIBRARY
Malta To Have Public Library
Books Already Contributed

Fright reading moulds the mind
And tends to highest aims and
noblest ends"
At last Malta is to have public Ii.
brary and for the present the books
will be circulated from The ENTER.
PRISE office.
For many years Malta has felt the
need of public library but has been
unable to secure the books or the
building for one.
Sometime in June of the present
year, the editor of The ENTERPRISE
while discussing the library situa.
tion of Malta with the President OF
the Woman's Club, offered to place
part of the office room in The En-.
terprise building at the disposal OF
the Club, to be used by the members
of that organization to place their
books within the reach of those who
were not members of the Club.
"Great minds work slowly" and it
was not until the meeting of the Club
last Saturday that the matter was
taken up and acted upon. The Club
then decided to make use of the office
room and Immediately brought a
number of books to be placed before
the reading public.
Mrs. Max SkloWer has the honor
and distinction of being the first to
contribute books to the library
She responded very generously and
brought number of volumes with
which to begin the list of books.
For the present Miss Mabel NJ
Peck will be librarian and those car.
ing to get books, as soon as they are
numbered and catalogued, may call
at her store one door west of The En-
terprise building or get them from
this office direct.
The public generally is asked to
contribute books, magazines, money,
or anything that will help in the es-
tablishment of this permanent libra
ry for Malta. The ENTERPRISE will
endeavor to give list of the donors
and their donations each week.
While the office will not become a
reading room, the size of the room
prevents that, the tired shopper will
find place to rest and read while
waiting for train or other conveyance
to get out of the city.
Rules and regulations governing
the distribution of the books will be
printed and probably be ready by Oc-
tober /,
Every public spirited individual in
Malta is asked to help in this work
A public library alway has An ele-
waiting and refining influence in a
community, and much good is sure
to result even from this small begin
ning-something that in the future
may develop into a stone front city
library or one of the Carnegie librar
les.

WEDDING BELLS
J. Carl Brandon and Miss Pearl
Clanton are Happily Married

J. Carl Brandon was united in
marriage to Miss Georgia Pearl
Clanton at the residence Of the
brides parents. Mr.. and Mrs. Geo.
B. Clanton, Tuesday evening at $3.50
O'Clock, Rex. Homer F. Cox per-
forming the ceremony. The. bride
was given away by her father and
was charmingly pretty in white
lace over null. The wedding was a
very quiet but pretty affair, Rev. and
Mrs. Homer Cox and the Misses
Marie and Hazel Cox were the only
invited guests.
A sumptuous wedding supper was
served about $3.50 O'Clock, and at
11:15 the happy couple took the train
for Great Falls where they will spend
the week attending the Northern
Montana Fair. The brides travel
ing gown was of steel gray chiffon
broadcloth, with black picture hat
. completing the costume.
The bride has grown from girlhood
to womanhood in Malta and has en-
deared herself to the community by
her sweet and WinsOme manner and
inherent womanliness. The groom
has been resident of Malta for a
number of months and during that
time has been associated with the
Malta Mertantile Co. He has i'm
pressed all as young man of fine
principles and sterling qualities.
Life starts auspiciously for these
young people.
An attempt had been made to keep
the time of the wedding a profound
secret, but strange to say, the many
friends of the bride and groom found
out the time the nuptial knot was to
be tied and appeared on the Clanton
premises even before the ceremony
was performed. Bent on an old
fashioned chivalrie they brought as
many noise producing things as could
be found and made SO much noise
that Marshal Casady got nervous.
After the ceremony the groom gave
the wherewith to refresh the merry
makers and they repaired to the j.
L. Merchant store where quantities
of good things to eat and rice, too,
was bought. When Mr.. and Mrs.
Brandon boarded No. 3, they were
"bombarded" with rice, rubbers,
and old shoes, from the mischievous
crowd, but managed to get away
without any of the placards, "We
Are just Married." etc., being at
tached to their baggage or to them
selves.
Mr.. and Mrs. Brandon will be at
home after September 26th in the
J. r. Mccoy residence.

Kindness kindles the fires of friend ship and love.
 There are many good farmers who are poor salasmen.
 Our mistakes often serve a good purpose by onlightening others.
 Be benevolent; bury all bickerings in the bosom of forgeuulness.
 No man con ever be entirely happy until he is entirely out of debt.
 Sometimes those Who endure ac' ccmplish as much as those who strive,
 Neighborhood scandal travels as fast as lightning-over the telephone wire.
 An unbalanced temper will spoil the results of an ordinarily well balanced ration.
 In preparing for winter don't forget that stock-and humans, too-require ample supplies of fresh air.
 If the country boy could only know of the heartless indifference of the big city he would be slow to face it.
 Judging by the effect "unfriendly legislation" has had on railroads, it's a wonder they don't pray for more of it.
 Less highfolutin' and more business like curvature of the spine has de- pressing effect on the motgage busi- ness.
 The well-bred farmer is not content with poorly bred stock, but circum- stances may force him to tolerate it for a time
 Talking about our "shiftless' neigh bors does not help them. Perhaps a bit of encouragement delivered straight at their hearts would.
 Rural free delivery and the farm telephone are the torches that are lighting the way of the farmer and his family toward a better life.
 The farmer who deposits his profits fin his soil, his animals and his build ings will do better than the man who leaves his money with the bank.
 Most of us get all the happiness we deserve and no less. Our failures are, for the most part. our own fault and we have only ourselves to blame if misfortune comes.

PRESSED HARD. Coffee's Weight on Old Age.

When prominent men realize the in in health that Postum can bring, they are glad to lend their testimony for the benefit of others.
 A superintendent of public schools In Southern state says: My moth er, since her early childhood, was an inveterate coffee drinker, had been troubled with her heart for a number of years and complained of that weak all over feeling and sick stomach.
 Some time ago 1 was making an of fieial visit to distant part of the country and took dinner with one of the merchants of the place. noticed a somewhat peculiar flavor of the cof- fee, and asked him concerning it. He replied that it was Postum. I was so pleased with it that, after the meal was over, 1 bought package to carry home with me, and had wife pre- pare some for the next meal; the whole family liked it so well that we discontinued coffee and used Postum entirely.
 hou iedily Deeu at lllieS Fcis anxious concerning my mothers con dition, but we noticed that after using Postum for short time, she felt so much better than she did prior to its use, and had little trouble with her heart and no sick stomach; that the headaches were not so frequent, and her general condition much improved. This continued until she was as well and hearty as the rest of us.
 q know Postum has benefited my self and the other members of the fam fly, but in a more marked degree ill the case of my mother, as she was victim of long standing"
 Ever read the above letter2 new one appears from time to time. They are genuine, true, and full of human intexe5t.

ENGLISH LACKING IN UNION
Weak spot in British Agriculture Is Failure of Farmers to Perfect
 an Organization.

In an article on The Newest Phase of the Oldest Industry" Sir Horace Plunkett gives some novel news on the transfer of the land to the people. He says:
 "The cry of back to the land has been heard loud enough and long enough to be taken as evidence of a real public opinion. The state is now giving to the country side of our national econ omy a degree of attention which can not be explained by the mere party pursuit of the agricultural vote, though, of course, this inevitable factor in all public questions will make its normal contribution to the confusion of issues It is the agreed policy of all parties to settle a larger number of the popu- lation upon the land, and this not in order to placate or benefit the land less so much as to strengthen the po- sition of the nation. The back to the land movement is not the result of an agrarian agitation; 1t Is redirection of national ideal and aim.
 England not only prospered mighti- ly in industry at home but was en- abled to seize the cream of the world S unoccupied agricultural lands. Tn these newly settled countries there was, of course, no urban predominance. But this day rural life In the United States and the British dominions is af- fected by the economic thought which had dominated the ear of England's industrial and commercial supremacy.
 Agriculture came to be treated much more as an investment than as a career. This tendency has reached its extreme manifestation in the waste ful, almost prof1igate, farming in many of the richest portions of the western hemisphere Mir Roosevelt has not only used his powerful influence to correct this extravaganza of natural resources, but In his countrywide pol. icy he has declared for preventive measures against the neglect of the rural population in the supposed in- terests of urban development which he foresees,
 "On the continent of Europe agr- cultural depression and rural back wardness are not unknown, but they are generally due, not, as with us, to the downward drift, but to the oppo. site cause, rural congestion. More over, where the danger of invasion did not pass after the Napoleonic war. military considerations forced gov ernments to realize the importance of maintaining the physical, as well as the moral, well-being of the rural pop ulation. Their welfare was recognized as essential to the safety of the nation as was the growth of town populations and the development of their manufac. | lures.
 "To my mind any comprehensive treatment of rural conditions in these islands will have to proceed, as we are doing in Ireland, upon similar lines. Unquesticnably the weak spot in English agricultural economy is the failure of farmers to combine for busI- ness, social and political (using the term in the nonparty sense) purposes. The first lesson to be learned from the continent is that you cannot help farm CTS who do not help themselves

Fed Cross Christrss seals.

Arrangements for the sale of Red Cross Christmas Seals for 1910 have been announced by the National As soc;ation for the Study and Proven tion Of Tuberculosis and the Ameri- can Red Cross. "A Million for Tuber- culosis" will be the slogan of the 1910 campaign. Two features of the sale this year are unique and will bring considerable capital to the tuberculo- sis fighters. The American National Red Cross is to issue the stamps as in former years, but this organization will work in close cooperation with the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis, which bocs will share in the proceeds of the sales. The charge to local associa- tens for the use of the national stamps has been reduced also from 20 per cent. to 1212 per cent, which will mean at least $50000 more for tuber- culosis work in all parts of the United States. The stamps are to be desig mated as Red Cross Seals" this year and are to be placed on the back of letters instead of on the front.
