That the people of our rural dis

schoolhouse is now, more than
ever, the social center of the COM

last night when rs people attended
the entertainment and dance given
at the Mccormick school in honor
of Washiugton's birthday.
For the convenience of those liv-
ing at distance the affair was
held OH Saturday evening. A eu-
logy OH our greatest American was
delivered by Mr.. Peck. teacher of
the Curly creek school across the
line in Idaho. There were patriot
ic songs and recitations by the
children of both schools under the
direction of Mrs. George McCor-
HlCk, Professor PflCe being aO-
sent. Washington's farewell to
his army was splendidly given by
John O'Gallagher. Who can listen
unmoved to those thrilling words
which afford a true glimpse into
that exalted inner life of him who
always will be first in the hearts
OF his countrymen."
At the conclusion of the program
the three MUSICIANS took their places
and the room was cleared for dane

TAFT BRINGS D0WNCAME
IN FIRST LOCAL GUN
FIRED BY c. 0. P.

The local republicans and breth.
rem from other parts of the county
gathered in force at Hotel Libby
last Thursday evening to feast,
smoke and talk, and to imbibe re-
publicanism and other things.
There was a small sprinkling of in.
surgent republicans present, but
the standpat element dominated the
gathering entirely and probably
shows the relative strength of the
two factions in this county.
A resolution favoring an in.
structed delegation for Taft, when
put by Chairman Geiger of the
county central committee, was
unanimously adopted and the COM
mittee authorized to select the DEL
egation. F. P. Carey was named
state committeeman.
Sixty five plates were laid and
it was midnight before the last gun
had been fred and several hours
later before all the smoke had
cleared away.
The glad news was telegraphed
to Taft's private secretary at Wash
ington, and now Lincoln county,
Montana, is on the official map
hung up on the White House wall.

From Forty-Five to Fifty Are Much Benefited
by
Lydia E. Phkham's Vegetable Compound
orty-Five to Fifty Are Much Benefited

The achange of life" is a most
critical period in a woman's ex-
istence, and the anxiety felt by
women as it draws near Is not
without reason.
When her system Is in a de-
ranged condition, she may be
predisposed to apoplexy, or con-
gestion of some organ. AT this
time, also, cancers and tumors
are more liable TO form and begin
their destructive work.
Such warning symptoms as
sense of suffocation, hot flashes,
headaches, backaches, dread of
impending evil, timidity, sounds
in the ears, palpitation of the
heart, sparks before the eyes,
irregularities, constipation, vari-
able appetite, weakness and
inquietude, and dizziness, are
promptly needed by intelligent
women who are approaching the
period in life when woman's
great change may be expected.
These symptoms are calls from
nature for help. The nerves are
crying out for assistance and the
cry should be needed in time.
Lydia E. Pinkhan's Vegetable
Compound is prepared to meet
the needs of women's system at
this trying period of her life. II

female organism and builds u.
the weakened nervous system

WHEN BUYING WRITING PAPER
Certain Times Of the Year When
Suitable coIors and Tones May Be
Acquired In Quantities.

The woman who would get the most
Tor her money buys her writing paper
In quantity at an annual sale.
The reason for these sales is that
The manufacturers accumulate small
lots Of discontinued papers. They are
not cheap qualities or seconds, merely
styles that are not novel.
1t is possible to get four quires of
paper and 100 envelopes for dollar,
and there Is a choice of different
weight, texture and color of the paper,
various shades of blue, gray, lavender,
cream and white, also stripes and bars
in self tones. These come in two
sizes, usually letter and note.
Marking varies according to color.
Two-colored letters are most expen-
i've; plain gold, silver or a single
metallic color costs about rs cents a
uuire; single plain color, gray, blue,
violet or brown, ten cents a quire,
and enclosing in relief without color,
about five cents Quire. These are
tandard prices almost everywhere
he year round, the reduction being
on the price of paper.
In buying paper by the quantity it
Is not wise to choose novelties. An
lnconspicuous color and good quality
Is always good. Many women adopt
a certain tone and kind of paper and
make it individual. Thus, the girl who
loves violet will have pale violet paper
with a deeper tone or silver for the
stamping, while the transparent en-.
velopes are lined with violet tissue
paper of a deeper shade than the en-.
! velope.
Gray paper or very pale blue is also
permissible, but it is bad form to use
garish stationery. ~.

WOMEN AS NATURAL ENEMIES
Writer Advances Some Good Reasons
Why This Unfortunate Condition
Must Exist.

The average woman now begins
that study of society which will merge
ultimately with the marriage cam
paign. She makes many discoveries
which she admits frankly to herself.
She comes to many conclusions" says
lnez Haynes Gilmore in Harper's Ba-
Ear, (which sink unnoticed into her
subconscious mind. If marriage, for
Instance, is her natural career, then
men are her natural prey.
But unfortunately there are never
enough men in her world to go round;
and of those from whom she may hope
to choose some are much more desir-
able than others. Naturally she pre-
fers the desirable ones-i. e., the
'eligibles.' But-and here she runs
against her first obstacle-every 9TH
er single woman in her circle has
come to the same conclusion. From
the instant she realizes this she
must declare war on every other men,
Der of her sex.
Men must often wonder at that mi
mute and merciless examination to
which, on a first meeting, every
woman submits every other wom-
an. Men must often marvel at the
power of quick observation which
women always develop in these cir
cumstances. This is only the swift
Interrogation with which a warrior
surveys the arms of his opponent.
Women are forever discovering new
and complex weapons in the posses
sion of rivals. And, perhaps, the
most terrifying element in the situa-
ton is sychological-her sense of
bafiement, in that she cannot judge of
women for men any more than they
can judge of men for her. Every 9th
er woman becomes her enemy. To
succeed in her world she must play a
Sne hand and cut-throat game"
