How to Direct Letters.

Many persons have careless habit
of directing local letters to city. in
stead OF giving the name in full. l was
cured OF this by an experience l had
recently. Being unexpectedly called
out of town on an urgent call, l hasti-
~ wrote some half dozen notes break
ing my gagements, and as they We're
all to go in my home town, directed
them all city. instead of Albany. l
very nearly missed my train. and. after
just making 1t, found l had forgotten
to mail my letters. AS soon as reach
ed my destination mailed my letters,
forgetting all about the manner in
which they were addressed. and. OF
course. they failed to reach their des-
tinatiOn.

HEALTHIER THAN
FORMERLY.

Mothers are growing more SEN
sible; hence the statement, "Chil-
dren are more healthy now than
formerly" This Is undoubtedly
due to the fact that the inesti-
mable value Of fresh air is being
realized more and more. No
mother possessing the ''scrap of
common sense" would think of
allowing her small children to
sleep in a room where all the
windows are tightly closed. This
was common occurrence not SO
many years ago.
Many mothers place their ba-
bies in perambulator and al
low them to lie out in the garden
or on the veranda nearly all day.
The modern mother considers
the child's health and beams
with pride when she notices the
ruddy cheeks and sturdy brown
legs. Not every child. however.
is constituted strongly enough to
stand this vigorous life, and a
physician should be consulted on
the subject before exposing the
baby to outdoor life.
Open windows in the bedcham-

the same air. which acts as a
poison to the system of deli

keep the bedclothes away from
it's face. and If this proves i'm
possible sleeping sack must
be resOrted to.

POTATOES AND MEAT.

MANY simple dishes for breakfast.
Vv luncheon or tea may be made by
combining Il little meat with
vegetab les. preferably potatoes. This
gives IA rich flavor to the potatoes and
provides nourishing food. which will
aid in reducing the amount of the
butchers bill.
Some recipes along this line are sug-
gested here:
Highly Seasoned Fare.
Scalloped Ham and PotatOes.-Take
a baking dish. grease it and sprinkle a
few drops of onion juice over the bot
tom Of it. Lay hot sliced boiled pota-
toes in the dish and on top Of them put
a layer of minced cold boiled ham.
Over all pour IL gill Of tomato sauce
and bake until hot all through.
Potatoes and Frankfurters. - Take
good sized potatoes. peel and with an
apple cOrer cut a hole through center.
Have ready an equal number Of frank
furter sausages and draw one through
each hole ia the potatoes. Place in
dripping pan and lay Il strip of bacon
over each potato. Pepper lightly and
bake until the potatoes are done. Basic
often with the bacon fryings and lit
tie hot water.
Dainty Combinations.
Potatoes and Chicken.-Make mix
ture as you would for potato croquettes.
Except that you omit the parsley. Shape
the mixture into small nests and Gil
them with creamed chicken. Cover
with the potato mixture and roll into
croquette shapes. Dip first in crumbs.
then egg and crumbs again and fry in
deep fat. draining on brown paper

Common Sense Items,

Don't burn gas for toast to save a
few pieces Of stale bread. Don't buy
food in fancy packages. paying for two
pounds and getting one and three
quarter pounds. Have your butcher
inclose trimmings with your meat.
This will increase your dripping as
well as your soup stock. Buy scales
If you have none. They will pay for
themselves in a few months. A few
reports Of short weights from your
kitchen mean a reform in the grocery
or market. Make or buy fireless
cooker, which is unexcelled for stews,
cereals. buildings and vegetables, saw
ing gas as well as time.

How to Clean Satin Collars.

The white satin collars that are SO
fashionable now, but so hard to keep
clean. may be rinsed out in ether and
cleansed Immediately. Do not try to
sponge off the spots. for that leaves a
ring. but put little ether in small
bowl or teacup and squeeze half the
collar at time. and it comes out per-
fectly white. Ten cents worth of ether
will clean the collar many times.

given no Indication that new battle
had been fought.
The situation at Adrianople remains
unchanged. The porte having refused

TIONAL INSTITUTION VEL
COMES STATE THIS DAY.

This is the day the University OF
Montana celebrates it's eighteenth
birthday. The head of Montanas
system of higher education is "at
home today to the state; visitors will
be welcomed on the campus and will
be shown an educational institution at
work On this of all Charter Days
the university is particularly anxious
that supporters and friends of the In
stitution shall visit the campus. The
university has many needs and has
done a lot of good work. These things
can best be seen after a personal in
vestigation of buildings and equip
ment.
But this will not be a day of favor
seeking on the part of the university.
Charter Day is a holiday and the cele-
bration of the noteworthy occasion
will be the object of the program. At
1890 this morning Rev. H. S. Galley
will deliver the address of the day.
He will speak in assembly hall on the
subject, "Visions and Tasks" The ad-
dress will be worth while and an in
teresting program has been prepared
for the exercises. 1t is as follows:

In the afternoon the buildings of the
university will be open for public in
spection. All Of the laboratories and
class rooms will be open between the
hours of 80 and 80. Students will
be at work everywhere and guides will
be on hand to conduct the visitors
around the campus and to explain
everything. A. visit to the campus
this afternoon will be interesting in
itself; it will be of unusual interest on
account of the agitation now stirring
higher educational circles.
AT A 80 in the afternoon a basketball
game will be play yed between the fresh
men and the junior classes of the uni
versity. Upon the outcome of this
game depends the collegiate champion
ship. No admission fee will be
charged.
A lot of interest is being taken in
the program by people in the city

The Classified Ad
Will Help You

The Missoulian Classified ad has established itself
the best means to be found in Montana for placing
you in touch with the person or the thing you want
to find. 1t has been tested thoroughly The most
enthusiastic supporters it has those who have
used it most.
If you have rooms to rent; if you have house to
SELL if there is something about the house for which
you have no use--you can find the person who wants
rooms; the man who wants to buy house; buyer
for whatever you have to dispose Of. You can do
this without using The Missoulian Glass ad, but you
will have harder time than if you employed this
means for finding the person you want to locate.
And then if you want job You man hunt the
town for place which will suit you and which
you will suit-then you may not find it, though per-
haps you have walked past it several times in your
quest The Missoulian Class ad will locate this place
for you if is to be found. And it will not cost you
a cent-if you are out of work and want a job, The
Missoulian will print your ad for nothing
