W 0NTANA

THE STATE OF MONTANA contains
1862 square miles. 1t is the third
state in size in the Union. It's natural
wealth is unsurpassed by any other state.
Immensely rich in miner
.n1rAM ais, with water power SUI
fcient to turn the wheels
of industry for half a continent, and mil
lions of acres of the best agricultural land
in the world, it is a commonwealth the
natural richness Of which is hardly
realized.
The population Of Montana is only
400, 600, and it will support in comfort fifty
times as many, or 2 10000 people. All it
needs is more capital and more people.
Montana in the ext few years will show
the most rapid development ever known in
any state. '.
Across Montana O extends three
trans continental railroads. Between these
roads there is strong rivalry to obtain the
immense business that is certain to flow
from this section, and they are rapidly
projecting roads into the undeveloped pro-
ton.
Now is the time to invest.

MEDICINE!

Most OF US place all together too
much faith in medicine. OF all the
hundreds Of known diseases, very few
can In every instance, be cured by
any single kind Of medicine. Some
times one person, suffering with a
given disease, will not be affected, or
may even be harmed by a medicine
which has been given with good effects
70 another person. Most diseases are
the result of self-indulgence, or care.
lessness, or ignorance, and nearly all
OF the sure cures, where cures are pos.
sible' are provided by nature. This is
especially true in the case of con-
sumption. There are some few cases
that are benefited by medicine, but no
medicine can yield a cure, or even a
considerable improvement unless it
co-operates with the forces OF nature.
There are quantities Of medicine sold
In the stores and advertised in every
conceivable way, as cures for tuber-
culosis. Most of them actually injure
the person who takes them; because
most OF them contain opiates or other
harmful drugs. Every one OF these
consumption cures" is planned simply
to enrich the manufacturer at the ex.
pense Of the most helpless people in
the world. II your doctor is unable
to give you medicine to cure you, don't
think you can pass the druggist 80
cents or $500, and cure yourself.

When Willie has to NOV the lawn hs
thinks his lot is very hard:
In ooleful tones ne asks us why We wish
to have so large a yard:
He bitterly complains about aches In his
arms and sides and back;
He fears the work will stunt his growth
and frets for servants that we lack.
When Willie mows the lawn he makes US
feel that he is much abused.
And when he's through the mower looks
as II II had been badly used;
He never throws stick aside or lifts q
wire from the way;
He skips the corners shamelessiy. al
though we give him double pay.
Whenever Willie mows the lawn the
neighbors all have cause to know,
And when he's through VOC might sup
pose that he had done 1t with a hoe;
He scatters grass upon the walks. he
never gives a weed a glance;
He skins the shrubs and barlSs the trees.
and wants his money In advance.
He sits upon the steps and sighs and.
when he's through can hardly crawl;
But merrily he keeps It up all day when
he is playing BALL
Elate and full of ginger then, he skips as
lightly as a fawn.
But all his strength forsakes him when

= = = . - * = 80

For quarter Of a century the great
problems OF manufacturing and of
transportation have been handled up
on the advice of experts-men whose
accurate and scientific knowledge ex-
tends to the minutest points
In the past few years able men have
realized that farming could be put
upon the same basis-that instead OF
being of necessity a haphazard enter
prise Il is one of the most scientific
businesses in the word-that II may
be as accurate and as reliable az
those processes Of nature upon which
It depends.
II has been realized also, that the
principles of cooperation which have
worked out such great things in the
Industrial world, may be used with
equal effectiveness in the realms of
agriculture.
To aid in the rapid spread OF these
ideas and principles seems to me 20
be a most useful and noble work, and
one in which I would gladly have a
part in Kentucky.
With this thought, I have decided
to give an old-fashioned barbecue at
my home in Woodford county, near
Versailles, on Wednesday, August 20.
1t will be my aim to have matters
along the lines I indicated discussed
by some of the great agricultural ex-
perts Of the country, and II will be
my hope that this may give fresh
impetus to the work in Kentucky for
the farmers which is already so well
begun.
Every farmer, and every farmers
wife, and every one interested in bet
ter farming, in the state, who feels
an interest in increasing the rewards
of agriculture, and in lettering the
conditions OF farm life, is most cor
daily and urgently invited to be my
guest on August 90 This invitation
is given in the spirit OF good fellow
ship, and the desire to help, and an
who accept It win be most warmly
welcomed.

BATH TUBS!

Keep on friendly terms with your
bath tub. 1t is the business Of the
skin to pass off to the surface of the
body some OF the waste products. In
the process of hard manual work or
violent exercises unusual large
amounts of waste products are made,
and the sweat carries them off with
greater rapidity. The action of the
breeze and the rubbing of the clothes
remove some OF this waste. but it can
not be thoroughly done except with
water A warm bath with the use of
a little soap once a week is the min
imum with which the skin can do its
best work. Baths can we'll be taken
more frequently, especially II one
takes a great deal Of exercise. Quick
baths in cold water without the use
of soap toughens the body and makes
one less liable to have colds. How.
ever, such baths do not give the skin
thorough cleansing, and ought not
to be taken by very delicate, sensitive
people except under the recommends
ton Of a physician. Baths not only
cleanse the skin, but they also start
the blood to moving faster. 1t is
known also that they have a marked
effect on the nervous system. People
who are exceedingly nervous or In
sane can be more easily and surely
quoted by properly administered
baths than in any other way, For
continuous mental and physical health,
a bath a day is an excellent rule.

OF all the thirteen or fourteen poets
mentioned for poet laureate of Britain
to succeed the late Alfred Austin,
whose verse was sometimes laughed
at, Premier Asquith has seen fit TO
choose a safe and sane" poet, like
the democratic party's safe and sane
candidate for president Of the United
States in 1904. Or. Robert Bridges,
who is 90 years of age, and who has
never written the kind of poetry
which appealed to the average Britain,
won the position over such as Rud-
yard Kipling, Alfred Noyes, John
Masefield, who used to be a waiter
in a Sixth avenue restaurant in New
York City, and a half dozen others.
Here is a triolet or Dr. Bridges
which give a fair idea OF his Muse:
gasus:
When first we met, we did not guess
That Love would prove so hard a
master.
OF more than common friendliness,
When first we met, we did not guess.
Who could foretell the sore distress,
This irretrievabIe disaster
When first we met?-we did not guess
That Love would be so hard mas

The new laureate was born in Kent,
October %, 1874, and is therefore in
his sixty-ninth year. He was educat-
ed at Eatoi and at Corpus Christi col
lege. oxford. On graduation he
studied medicine at St. Bartholomew
hospital, and was appointed assistant
physician at the Children's hospital
and later physician at the Great
Northern hospital, in London. Not
until his retirement in 1882 did DR..
Bridges devote himself entirely to
literature, playwriting and poetry. In

ter Of Alfred Waterhouse, famous

While Bridges is not so well known
to the general public as some of the
other fourteen candidates for the lau-
reateship, among literary men in
the appointment is distinctly
popular.
Bridges chief critical work is John
Keats, a Critical Essay" which he
published in 1896. He also published
a Volume on Millions Prosody."
His own poetry has never had wide
sale, although highly appreciated in
select circles.
His latest volume OF poems. recent

VISITING NURSES!

A visiting nurse is a trained nurse
with a special experience, supported
by the city, or county, or some char
table organization, who devotes her
time to visiting the sick, giving them
advice, and such assistance or service
as she can render in a short time. OF
course, visiting nurse is unable to
attend cases of such highly infectious
diseases as scarlet fever in the course
OF her regular duties. She rs under
the orders of the physician and is not
allowed to make diagnoses. One such
nurse can relieve a great deal of dis
tress; but 1t is rather a harder task
to prevent disease than to cure it.
When, for instance. she goes to look
after one case of consumption in a
family she watches the other men,
bers of the household carefully in or
der to see whether or not there are
others just coming down with the dis
ease. She visits patients during the
period of convalescence to guard
against a relapse or the catching Of
some other disease. She educates the
families of her patients regarding
what to do for the patient and how to
take care Of themselves so as to avoid
the same disease. There are at pres
ent few visiting nurses in Kentucky.
Wouldn't you like to have one in your
community? Wouldn't it be worth a
little of your money every month for
her support?
