BAND TO PLAY AT MILES CITY

The Wibaux band has been
engaged to furnish the music at
the Big Roundup at Miles City
on July 3, A and 5, which shows
that our little city has some band
and that the state is aware of
this fact. The boys have new
uniforms and have spent most
every evening in practicing for
some time and they will give
Miles City some of the best band
music possible on the above days.
A band is a great thing for a
city and the boys should be en-
couraged in their work. Wibaux
has an exceptionally good band
and it will prove good adver-
tisement for our little city when
they play at Miles City.

A Hail Storm
Visited Wibaux

This part Of the country was
visited by a hail storm on Mon
day evening but on account of
the crops not being far enough
advanced no particular damage
was done. A number of win
dows suffered damage and some
Of our readers stated that they
found hail-stones as large as an
egg. After the hail a nice rain
fell which will materially help
the crops. The storm was ex-
ceedingly bad south Of town
while north very little hail or
rain either fell. This year the
crops are coming along in fine
shape but they do not seem to
grow as fast as previous years
and the garden truck seems to
be very bashful in putting it's
head above the ground, Wheth-
er it is on account Of not enough
rain or not we have not been
able to tell, but as plenty of rain
has fell during the past two
weeks. everything will undoubt-
edly cast aside it's bashful robes
and grow with renewed vigor.

with the Congregational Church

years ahead of the time due.
Several Sunday School scholars
assisted in the burning Of the
mortgage. Isabel Jordon and
Edna Jones held the tray to re-
ceive the ashes and Stella Chap

Will Build Church
and Parish House

At the close of the service
Sunday morning a special busi-
ness meeting of the Congrega-
tional Church was held. DR.. w.
H. Jackson read the report of
the Committee on New Church
Building, and the report was
adopted. This comits the Church
to the matter of new buildings.
The minister announced that of
the required $4,000 this sum of
$500 was in sight. This is en-
couraging and shows that the
community favors the enterprise.
The Church appointed Build
ing Committee who will proceed
at once with the actual work of
the project. This committee
consists Of w. H. Jackson, S. P.
Rife, S. H. Stambaugh, Rex
Chappell and R. B. Walker.
Plans and specifications will be
secured, and the work will go
forward as rapidly as possible.
Two buildings are to be erect
ed, parish house and church.
It is expected that the parish
house will be ready for use by
Christmas Of this year. The
church will not be erected for at
least year. The parish house
will be a frame building 36x64
feet and will be equipt with. a
large gymnasium with shower
baths, dressing rooms etc, club
rooms, a reading and rest room,
kitchen etc. The committee
recommended $4,000 be expended
in this structure. Altho not
definitely decided as to location
it is expected that the parsonage
will be moved and the parish
house placed on the present site
OF the parsonage.
The carrying out of these plans
will give Wibo as fine a Church
equipment as any city of it's size
in the state. It is matter for To-
cal pride that church should
attempt such an enterprise. The
parish house will be at the dis
posal of the people Of the COM
munity regardless of denomi-
national affiliations. and will be
a great thing for the town. The
reading and rest rooms will be
open daily and free to the pub
lie.

SHARKS BLOW SHIP WHISTLE
Then Sailors Know the Much Hated Fish Has Been Caught on
 Their Hooks.

Sharks are numerous in Magdalena bay, on the west coast of the Peninsu la of Lower California, says the Wide World. The monsters at this point seem to take almost any kind of bait and it is rarely that a warship is seen at anchor without from one to half dozen lines dangling from it's stern. Watching a shark line is a tedious business, but it is strictly necessary In order that the fisherman may know when the monster is hooked as its frantic rushes, If allowed to go un- checked, are pretty sure to cause some part of the line, leader, or even part of its own anatomy to give way, and result in it's escape.
 The old scheme of tying the line around ones big toe and going to sleep would probably work all right so far as rousing the fisherman was con cerned. but the sequel might not leave him in condition to give undivided attention to landing the prize. To this end the officers and sailors have hit on an ingenious plan. Instead of taking in their lines when the dinner gong sounds or when for any reason they are on duty elsewhere, they run a stout piece of marlin twine from the leaving it for the man eater himself to announce the event of his being hooked by sounding a toot.

THE BEST TREATMENT FOR ITCHING SCALPS, DANDRUfF
 AND FALLING HAIR

To allay itching and irritation of tho scalp, prevent dry, thin and falling Fair, remove crusts, scales and dan druff, and promote the growth and beauty of the hair, the following spe- cial treatment is most effective, agree able and economical. On retiring, comb the hair out straight all around, then begin at the side and make a parting, gently rubbing Cuticura Oint- ment into the parting with a bit of soft flannel held over the end of the finger Anoint additional partings about half an inch apart until the whole scalp has been treated, the pur- pose being to get the Cuticura Oint- ment on the scalp skin rather than on the hair. It is well to place light covering over the hair to protect the pillow from possible stain. The next morning, shampoo with Cuticura Soap and hot water. Shampoos alone may be used as often as agreeable, but once or twice month is generally sufficient for this special treatment for women's hair.

Terrapin Catches Hawk.

Edwin Lowe, son of Edwin Lowe of Mcdaniel, Talbot county, Md, exhib- ited recently young chicken hawk that he and his father had captured after it had been trapped by a com mon land terrapin.
 MT Lowe and his son were walking in the road near Mcdaniel Tuesday morning when they saw the hawk hop ping along in the road with something hanging to it.
 Thinking the bird had been wound ed, they approached it with a view of putting it out of misery, when they saw what was hampering it's move ments.
 The hawk had evidently tried to capture the terrapin, but was cap tured itself, for one toe of the bird was held tightly in the terrapins shell.
 Both hawk and terrapin were picked up and taken to MT. Lowe's home, and it was several hours before the terra pin released it's grip.-New York Sun.

Two Kinds of Dancer.

Familiarity with danger sometimes breeds contempt for it. It is 8 curi- ous fact that employees who are en- gagged in work that involves peril of fire or explosion have to be restrained by strict regulations for their own good. But fire and explosion are not the only hazard. Some of the insti- tutions that seem farthest removed from danger are really places of con- siderable hazard A small private bank In the village of Clarkston looked about the last place in the world where an inmate might consider him self in danger, but danger was there. The temptation to enjoy smoke at the risk of lives and property and the loss of employment to 100 fellow-crea- lures differs only in form from the temptation to grow rapidly rich by un- lawful use of money deposited by trusting fellow-citizens for safe keep ing, a small rate of interest and the promotion of the business welfare of the community.

GROWING STRONGER Apparently, with Advancing Age.

At the age of 50 years I collapsed from excessive coffee drinking" writes man in Mo. For four years sham bled about with the aid of crutches or cane, most of the time unable to dress myself without help.
 My feet were greatly swollen, my rigEt arm was shrunken and twisted inward, the fingers of my right hand were clenched and could not be ex- tended except with great effort and pain. Nothing seemed to give me more than temporary relief.
 Now, during all this time and for about 30 years previously, I drank daily an average of 6 cups of strong coffee-rarely missing meal.
 My wife at last took my case into her own hands and bought some Postum. She made it according to di- rections and I liked it fully as well as the best high-grade coffee.
 Improvement set in at once. In about months I began to work lit- tie, and in less than year was very much better, improving rapidly from day to day. I am now in far better health than most men of my years and apparently growing stronger with advancing age.
