Storm Kicked By Horse

On the morning of the last day
which Edward Storm was pro-
prietor of the Circle Shop, he met
with a rather painful accident
which although bad enough as it
is, came very near being fatal.
Mr.. Storm was engaged in shoe
ing a horse belonging Fred NAL
kuch when one of the horses
kicked at him first striking him
on the knee, then on the left side
throwing him many feet. Ed. is
at present getting along fairly
we'll but unable to do any work.
In regard to the accident Mr..
Storm said that's what / call get

Circle Now Has Daily Mail

Although Circle is at present
located over SO miles from any
Railroads.&c. is gradually becoming
real city with modern convent
enceS.
The latest is our daily mail SER
vice which started last Wednes-
day the first and it is needless 10
say that it is welcomed by every
resident in Circle, the Redwater
Valley, as well as those residing
III the Union and Lindsay country.
The first mail on the new daily
service left here bright and early
Wednesday morning, Claude
Suffer taking it to Glendive, while
Mr.. Suffer, Sr., left Glendive at
the same. time arriving here at
exactly 12:45 p. M, in his brand
new six cylinder, 80 horse power
REQ which he has purchased to
use in the service. He has also
purchased a large Buick which
will be used.
The contract for the Paxton
Circle route which took effect
Wednesday was also let to Mr..
Sutter, so hereafter Mr.. Suffer and
his boys will be kept pretty busy
hauling mail for Uncle Sam.
Mr.. Suffers bid on the Circle
Glendive route was $7,488.OO per
and on the Circle-Paxton
route $4,000.
Another change which is TO
take place January lst, 1916 is
The extention of the Horse creek
route to Weldon over in the Nc

Il When the ways and means commit
tee meets within few days to begin
the work of arranging the standing
committees of the house, it will find
itself confronted with good sized job
The last election resulted in the defeat
OF large number of democratic me m
bers and numerous rearrangements of
committee assignments will have to be
made by Chairman Kitchin and his
associates. The rule of seniority will
be generally observed but the chief
difficulty will come from filling the
gaping holes on practically all of the
big committees caused by the absence
of members who were left at home by
linconsiderate constituencies last year.
Any man who has studied the system
in vogue in the house realizes the i'm
portance of securing favorable COM
mittee places. The real work of the
house is done in the standing commit
tees. The real mainsprings of power
and influence are located at the heads
of the various committee tables. Chair
manships are won only through length
of service or exceptional luck. There
are number of places open on appro-
priations, rules, banking and currency
and other major committees. There
will be keen rivalries for these places
places as there will be for some of the
vacant chrirmanships on committees of
lesser importance. Many men prefer
a smaller committee Craftsmanship to a
place on big committee. This is due
to the fact that aside from the prestige
which any sort of chairmanship car
ries, it also provides for additional
clerical assistance and more cnmmodi-
GUS office quarters. Right now the
members of the ways and means COM
mittee who are in town are much sought
after gentlemen. AS one of them re-
marked to me the other day, he is now

should be drifting into Washington
to make ready for the battles which
are pending. Speaker Clark, who

off just long enough to have a talk
with President Wilson on the sub

reasonable increase in the army
and navy establishments. Claude
Kitchin who will be the Majority
leader, has been in town for a
couple of short visits and each
time has reiterated his opposition
to the Administrations military
program. He will be back the
first of the coming week to get the
members of his ways and means
committee together to tackle first
the hefty job of arranging the house
committees and, second, the prob |

SOME HARD KNOCKS
Woman Gets Rid of Coffee Habit.

The Injurious action of coffee on the
hearts of many persons is we'll known
by physicians TO be caused by caffeine.
This is the drug found by chemists in
coffee and tea.
A woman suffered a long time with
severe heart trouble and finally her
doctor told her she must give up cof-
fee, as that was the principal cause OF
the trouble She writes:
MY heart was SO weak 1t could not
do its work properly My husband
would sometimes have 10 carry me

causing the weakness OF my heart. He

KEEP TEETH IN CONDITION
Not Only Personal Appearance, But
Health, Is Affected by Neglect
of Their Care.

Next to a bad complexion, there is
poor teeth. So often you see girl
who is wonderfully pretty until she
smiles, and then her whole face Is
ruined by a set of dark, discolored,
uneven teeth. Leaving beauty out OF
the question, however, there is more
serious side to this subject The read
ers are urged to care for their teeth
as they would for precious pearls, not
only for the sake of personal appear
ance, but for the sake of health itself
Physicians will all tell you that the
stomach is at the bottom of most phys
ical disorders A weak stomach is
the root of all evil, but the cause OF
most weak stomachs is bad teeth.
When the teeth are decayed and sensi-
tive it is almost impossible to chew
any food properly. Consequently the
stomach becomes very quickly disor-

You should brush your teeth after
every meal and then use dental floss
to go into the crevices. Once day
is sufficient for the paste, although 1t
can be used morning and night with
out harm. In brushing the teeth you
should first use the brush lengthways
in the ordinary way with the teeth
closed. scrubbng we'll up and down
into the gums. Then open the jaws
and scrub across the fiatness of the
molars, taking pains to go into every
corner. From there pass on into the
inside of the teeth, brushing thorough
ly in the inner part of the upper and
lower front teeth. When they have
been cleaned this way hold the brush
upright in your hand and with the
jaws open brush up and down the
grain of the teeth In the morning the
tongue and gums should be given an
extra cleansing with special paste
After each meal, when the teeth
have been brushed. run piece OF
dental floss between each two teeth
If you are in an office have an extra
toothbrush and spool of dental floss

KEEPING HAIR IN CONDITION
Any Number of Shampoos That May
BE Employed With the Best
Of Results.

Many girls use an egg shampoo as a
cure for dandruff. To make il use the
yolk of one egg, one pint Of hot rain
water. one ounce of rosemary. Beat
the mixture and use IL warm, rubbing
il we'll into the scalp and over the
hair. Rinse the hair well. and sit in
the sun until il is free from moisture.
To keep the hair light try this
method: Shave .wo ounces OF white

Place over a slow fire and stir until
the soap is dissolved then add tea

Rinse the hair. then apply more soap
10 hair and scalp and again rinse the
hair very thoroughly Water for first
rinsing should be very warm
Brush the hair and massage the
scalp while the hair is drying and the
hair will be glossy and soft. The
tonic should be rubbed in the hair
before it dries. II is made as follows:
Listerine. 3i9 ounces: bsulphate OF
quinine. 10 drams tincture OF can

POCKETS AND BELTS
ACCESSORIES GIVEN PROM
NENcE IN PARTISAN DESIGNS.
Wide Sklrt In General Favor Though
Method Of Arrangement Is Varied
Distinctive Rules That Gov
ern the Sleeve.

With the empire reviya, comes also
the small sleeve and the round decol-
letage. Some of the French design
ers have submitted evening frocks
that are high in front and extremely
low in the back, but this is not an at
tractive line. Fashion may recon-
mend it. but few women will adopt it.
Along with pockets, belts have also
appeared on skirts, much after the
manner that Cheruit employed some
months ago. Two or three of them,
tiny little apologies for belts. are
placed across the middle of the front
or back, holding fiat the fullness.
While all the designers pay tribute
to the wide skirt, not all of them are
in favor of fullness over the hips. For
slim. young things there are skirts
that are frankly gathered around the
waist line and adorned with two large
patch pockets on each side, but the
majority of skirts are firmly held in
until the fullness reaches nearly TO
the knees, where il is allowed to flare
its utmost.
Plaits are universal. They are
usually stitched down to the founda-
tion or held down by straps of ma
terial finished with small buckles in
front. There are plaits in groups at
