BISHOP CUP WINNER VICTORIA III SOLD;
 WILL RACE AGAIN
w. W. Roberts Purchases Speedy Cabin Cruiser
 From Pengue Bros.

With the filing of a bill of sale with the town clerk today ownership of the fast cabin cruiser Victoria III passed from the builders, Arthur and Ernest Pengue, to William w. Roberts of sos Lafayette street, a newspaperman of this city.
 The change in ownership of the Vic toria III at this time undoubtedly will mean that motor-boat enthusiasts in this city will witness one of the most exciting races ever held in this sec ton, for the boat has twice in success sion won the Bishop cup and last year, over the forty mile course, was de- feated by the Humpty-Dumpty by the narrow margin of three minutes.
 The new owner indicated his inten- tions of entering the boat in the com ing races, July 4, through either the Park City or the A4famogue Yacht club Though the ownership has been so brief, tentative orders have already been given the Bridgeport Motor com pany, where the boat is now in dry dock, to spare no expense in placing the vessel in full racing condition, and it is not expected that serious diff1- culty will be encountered in securing a yacht club flag under which to race.
 The Victoria III not only holds one of the most enviab1e records of all boats in this section but is a hand some and comfortable craft, over 35 feet long, and containing two large cab1ns, as well as an after-deck fn- ished in solid mahogany. She was built three and one-half years ago by the Pengue Brothers, the we'll known carpenters and ship builders of Orr chard street, at an expense of about l>$2,O00. They raced her every year un- der the Columbia Yacht club flag. Ev- cry detail of the boat is such as to make the heart of yacht enthusiast glad. The price paid by MT. Roberts IS not disclosed in the papers filed to- day. The new owner is sanguine of Winine with ga se +bal R;sbor c1,x.

RIGHTS OF AUTOMOBILES.

There are few people who are
of the impression that horse drawn
vehicles have the right of way over
gasolene propelled vehicles. This
is mistaken idea as the rights of
both are equal and teamster when
he meets car on the road should
turn out and give the oncoming car
one-half of the road the same as if
it were horse drawn wagon or
cart. The road law of the state of
Montana is very clear on this point
and is as follows:
when vehicles meet the driver
of each must turn reasonably to the
right of the center of the highway,
so as to pass without interference,
under the penalty of $25 for every
neglect, to be recovered by the
party injured.
ANY vehicle of any kind, drawn
by horses or propelled by steam or
gasolene, or any other power, over
taking vehicle on the public high
way, upon the party desiring to pass
giving warning to the first vehicle
of such desire, the said first vehicle
shall make reasonable effort to give
the second vehicle half the road
within which to pass. Any person
violating the provisions of this act
shall be deemed guilty of a misde-
meanor and shall pay fine not ex-
ceeding $25, to be recovered by the
party injured, or by Imprisonment
for a term not exceeding so days, or
by both such fine and imprison-
ment."
AS a rule it is usually much east
err for an auto to run around a
heavily loaded wagon and the
drivers of cars for the most part do
so. but there are few who will not
give even share Of the road and it
is for the benefit of such that the
law was framed.

PAY TRIBUTE TO THE COW.

E. g. Benedict, state dairy com.
missioner in the 1915 Missouri Far.
mer's Year book, automatically
dominates himself to be the Sena.
tor Vest of the COW. He says in
part:
Little do we realize the debt We
owe the COW. For 1000 years she
has shown her intelligence to man
sharing alike his prosperity and ad-
versity, responding nobly to all that
was done for her, until through her
development she became an idol of
the people of her native country.
In 1493 when Columbus made his
second voyage to America, the COW
came with him-and from that time
to the present day she has been a
most important factor in making
thisour own country, the greatest
nation, with the highest type OF
womanhood and manhood history
has known.
Her sons helped till the soil of our
ancestors and slowly moved the
products of the farm to market.
They went with man into the dense
forests of the new world, helped to
clear them for homes, and made
cultivation possible for the coming
generation-and when the tide of
emigration turned westward they
hauled the belongings of the pio-
neer across the sun-scorched plains
and over the great mountain
ranges to new homes beyond.
Truly the COW is mans greatest
benefactor. Hail, wind, drouths
and floods may come, destroy our
crops and Danish our hopes, but
from what is left, the COW manu-
features into most nourishing and
life sustaining foods-and is she
not life itself to the thousands of
little ones stranded upon the hollow
hearts and barren bosoms of mod
ern motherhood? We love her for
doci1ity, her beauty and her useful
ness. Her loyalty. has never weak
ened-and should, misfortune over
take US, as we become bowed down
with the weight Of years, we know
that in the cow we have a friend
that was never known to falter. She
pays the debt. She saves the home.
God bless the cow-little do we re-
alize the debt we owe her.

NATURE AND THE mIcaose.
How the Nose and the Stomach Fight

lenses. For example, we find no mi

through the healthy nose. The nose
is the original domestic filter" for all
microbes In dust in the air. Its Sc
cretions are antiseptic also. and man
has no more valuable outwork Of de.
Tense than a normal nose. A choked
nose, through which person cannot
breathe, means that microbes enter the
lungs freely by way of the 6lterless
mouth.
In the stomach we find free hydro

line the stomach is one of the wholly
inimitable feats Of the body. Until re-
Gently most OF us thought that the n.y.
drochloric acid was formed in the stom-
ach solely in order to digest food, but
now we have evidence to show that
this hydrochloric acid is also valuable
antiseptic, working, for once, inside
the body without hurting It and prob
ably often saving US from the microbes
Of consumption and typhoid fever.
Thus the two great avenues Of entry
