CLINCHED IN HIS MEMORY
Small Chance of Charles Abner For getting the Day That Meant
 Everything to Him.

Some time since Charles Abner courted and married the beautiful FL len Estelle. One evening several months later they were seated in their cozy little den, Ellen Estelle reading a popular novel and Charles Abner looking over the sporting page.
 Charley. dear" finally remarked the little wife, do you recall the time you proposed to me?"
 Why, yes" rather indifferently an swered Charles Abner, T think re- member it.
 ''Of course, you do," returned Ellen Estelle. "It was in an automobile. shall never forget the lovely words you spoke, and the noble sacrifices you promised to make. It must have cost you something to say those things"
 Tt did, Ellen Estelle," responded Charles Abner, with a reflective sigh, it cost me about two weeks salary to hire the automobile. e."-Philadelphia Telegraph

"Oh, MT. Hero, I'm so glad to see you safely back from the war. Sit right down and tell me all about it. I'm aWfully interested Wasn't it sim ply terrible over there? And did you really live in the trenches for weeks at time with shot and shell scream ing all around you? 1 don't see how you could stand 1t. Were you ever hit by one of those forty-two eentimeter guns? I mean by the bullet, of course; not by the gun. But then, of course, you weren't, or you'd have your arm in sling or something. Who do you think is going to win? I suppose I shouldn't ask you that, though You soldiers are not allowed to tell mili- tary secrets, are you? Did you ever really kill a man yourself, or don't you know? My uncle, who was in the Spanish war, says you never can tell whether it's your bullet or somebody else's that hits the enemy I should think that would be awfully annoying. Not that you want to know that you q killed man, but still you'd like to know whether you're wasting your am intuition or not Oh, must you go so soon? I wish you would stay longer. I've been so interested in hearing your adventures. Call again soon, won't you? Good-by."

psycholoqy of Practice.

The question of short versus long periods of practice in training the hu- man muscles for any particular kind of work is obviously one having far reaching application. Some interest ing experiments on this subject have been carried out by Dr. K. s. Lashley of Johns Hopkins university. Acquisi- ton of skill in archery was selected as the subject of observation. Twenty untrained persons were divided into three groups One group shot five arrows with the English longbow per day: another. twenty shots per day; and the third, forty shots. The re- suits showed conclusively that the group shooting only five times a day improved in accuracy with less ex- penditure of time in practice than was required by either of the other groups for the same amount of improvement. A report on the experiments says: "The relatively greater efficiency of short periods of practice continuing for many days is in accordance with the results of the study of animals and of speech habits in man, and in- dicates that in training to muscular feats, in both animals and man, the length of practice periods required is usually too great for maximum ef- ciency."-Scientific American.

Irish Speed.

In Judge NcKinley's court they were examining talesmen for the trial of a boy, who had killed his father. The lawyers dwelt mostly on the facts of marriage, paternity and whether there had been insanity in the families of the men under examination.
 When they got around to Michael Mccarthy the wait had been long and he proceeded to whip up.
 Asked the first question he galloped away with this:
 My name is Michael Mccarthy and l live at 1886 Fulton street and I am thirty-fve years old and am married and have one child and I have never had any insanity in the family and if I had I wouldn't be fool enough to tell you.r

INSOMNIA Leads to Madness, if Not Remedied.

Experiments satisfied me, some 5 years ago." writes Topeka woman. that coffee was the direct cause of the insomnia from which l suffered ter ribly, as well as extreme nervousness and acute dyspepsia.
 T had been a coffee drinker since childhood, and did not like to think that the beverage was doing me all this harm. But it was, and the time came when l had to face the fact and protect myself. I therefore gave up coffee abruptly and absolutely, and adopted Postum for my hot drink at meals.
 "I began to note improvement in my condition very soon after l took on Postum. The change proceeded gradually, but surely, and it was matter of only a few weeks before found myself entirely relieved-the nervousness passed away, my diges- tive apparatus was restored to normal efficiency, and I began to sleep rest fully and peacefully.
 These happy conditions have con- tinued during all of the 5 years, and am safe in saying that l owe them entirely to Postum, for when l began to drink it ceased to use medicines. " Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich. Read "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs.

MARRIAGE AND LONGEVITY.

That married life is promotive to
health and longevity has been scienti-
fically demonstrated by Professor
Wilcox Of Cornell. In 1909 the New
York state department of health be-
gan to tabulate details by sex, age
and maratal conditions, and it is upon
these figures that the Cornell savant
bases his deductions. The results
agree with those of European Stats
ticians. They show in the age period
between 20 and 20, the death rate of
unmarried men is 81 per cent greater
than that of married men, and the
death rate of unmarried women is IS
per cent less than married women
This is the only group in which the
unmarried women have a better
chance of living than the married.
From 80 to 80 the death rate of un-
married men is 119 per cent greater
than that of married men, and the
death rate of unmarried women is II
per cent greater than married women
From 40 to 40 the death rate of I'M
married men is 1O5 per cent greater
and ONE % per cent greater. From
50 to 60, the death rate of unmarried
men is SO per cent greater and un-
married women, 81 per cent greater.
From 60 to SO, the figures are 60 and
SO per cent greater, and from 70 to
70, they are 80 and "a per cent
greater.
The death rate of wives in the 20's
is large, possibly because of the dam
gers of first motherhood. Women
marry on the average at the age Of
% and after that age maternity and
wifehood are normal and physiolog-
ical. 1t is incidentally observed that
women as a sex live longer than men.
The reasons advanced for the greater
length of life of married people are
those that readily suggest themselves.
"In the general run Of things" says
Professor Wilcox, "the men and
women who marry are of a higher
type, physically and mentally, than
those who do not. Generally speak
ing, it is the fit to survive who do
marry" Among further reasons for
longevity are that marriage imposes
upon a man regularity which bache-
lorhood does not. It's responsibilities
develop temperance, care of health,
avoidance of risks, and marriage
makes for content and happiness
theoretically at least.

THE SUMMER BUTTER MARKET.

One great difficulty with dairying
in Montana is the uneven market.
When all the cows are milking freely
on fresh summer pasture the price
of butter is low-the lowest of the
year. This is not peculiar to Mon
tana, although worse here than al
most anywhere else. In the great
dairy state of Wisconsin there was
recently a sixty per cent decrease in
the milk flow from June to October.
How to sell dairy products to advant-
age in early summer is our problem.
We must find the answer before MAX
ing a campaign to increase the dairy
product.
A plan has been proposed for Mon
tana to take up the manufacture Of
high grade fancy cheese in co-opera-
ton with the United States Dairy
bureau, using the early summer sur
plus for this purpose, thus leaving
only the ordinary supply to sell at
that time. Most of the good cheese
of the world is made in northern reg
ions and in mountainous countries,
Montana is naturally favorable to this
industry.

States Dairy bureau is coming to talk

Tom-cat Not Afraid of Shrapnel.

The Belgian Army Messenger has a
story Of an old tom-cat, from. no one
knows where, who has made his home
in the trenches on the User. His ex-
istence seems intimately bound up
with that of the soldiers. whose sang
froid and powers of endurance he imi-
tates. If he hears the sound of
shrapnel, he goes from one soldier to
the other, rubbing himself against
their legs. Shells make no impress
sion upon him. He watches them
against the sky and waits till they
burst without disturbing himself in
the least. One day-he had certainly
hreakfasted too well-he was seer
stretched on a ruined wall, where he
lay the whole day in spite of the
heavy bombardment. From time to
time he was covered with debris from
the explosion of a she'll. He sprane
up, shook himself. mewed angrily
and then resumed his former posi-.
ton on the same stone.
