LAND SCRIP WILL APPLY,

The ruling of the Land Department
that q Soldiers Additional Home.
stead entry is NOT q homestead entry
although so recognized for forty
years has been q blessing in disguise
to the people of Northern Montana,
or that vast domain North of the
Missouri and Marias Rivers, which
was once part Of the Blackfeet Indian
Reserv alton.
The decision referred to led to ef-
forts of relief and the result is an Act
of Congress approved March 3, 1911 J,
of great importance to the people of
that region.
In general, this Act makes the for
mer Blackfeet Reservation subject to
the operations of the public land laws
generally. Homestead entries may
now be COMMITTED not under the En-
larged Homestead Act and this right
will be widely beneficial. Timber and
Stone entries may be made and iso.
lated racts purchased.
Best Of all, if you want quick title
to a tract of public land for any pur.
pose, you ear secure same by the use
of LAND SCRIP. The new law makes
scrip applicable. And we shave the

There are stenographers who look on stenogra-
ply as an end, who are content If they can get
in that; where it should be looked as
means to an end. The stenographer can't know
too much, study or reading comes amlss to
him; If he were possessed of all knowledge he
would some day find It all useful to him in his
profession; but he doesn't want to stop at that.
IF he has the knowledge and If he also has
tact and good sense and downright ability
well as a really expert knowledge of stenography

sure to be vastly more profitable to him.
"A stenographer in the employ of such a man
soon comes to have more real knowledge of the
business than the bookkeeper or the cashier or

1t Is fine thing to be a really expert stenogra

do have an ambition that sooner or later they

Only recently the minister from Belgium to the
United States, the Count de Buisseret was trans
ferred to his countrys legation at ST. Petersburg
The count and countess, his wife, lived In the
American capital for long time and here 1t was
that their daughter was born, an event which was
a cause for great rejoicing, for previous to the
arrival of the little girl the Busserets had been
blessed only with boys, of whom there were five
to help pack the trunks the other day the jour
ney to the capital of the cars empire
The Countess de Buisseret is an American She
Is the daughter of General Story Of California,
whose family for a great many years resided in
Washington. Count de Buisseret has been sue
ceeded as Belgian minister by Mr. E. Havenith,
who comes to Washington from Persia Mr.
who, prior to her wedding, was Miss Helen
Ffoulke, daughter of the late Charles Ffouke of
Washington. Mr.. Havenith at one time was a
Junior attache Of the legation in Washington and
here he met, wooed and married Miss Foulke.
1t seems like a string of condolences but the
fact that three Belgian ministers in succession
have had American wives is much more than mere
coincidence. The predecessor of the Count de
Buisseret the Baron Moncheur, whose wife
also is American, the daughter of General
Powell Clayton, former United States minister to
Mexico. Baron Moncheur has been twice married
his first wife, like his second being an American
woman.
There are many reasons advanced for the Sc
lection of diplomats with American wives for the
American service, but the underlying reason I'M
doubtedly is that with an American wife diplo-
