Family Troubles
of Poor Rabbit

Mr. Rabbit lived in the woods
with his family. He had two little
children and his family to make
living for. Now Mr.. Rabbits fam
lily was very poor and Mr.. Rabbit
had all he could do to make a liv-
ing for his family. One day he
came running home to his wife and
told that he was out of work. Mr..
Rabbit had only enough money and
food to last for two days and after
that they would have to hunt for
food or starve.
The thoughts of this made MIR.
Rabbit almost sick. He told his
wife not to tell little Nan and Tom
which was the children's names.
He thought they might get hungry
and steal. This was a funny
thought for he might have known
his dear little children would not
do that.
For two days they had food but
not enough to satisfy them. One
morning Mr.. Rabbit got up early
to go hunt for food. On his way
he saw a hole in an old oak tree.
Mr.. Rabbit wanted to know what
was in there SO he peeped in. Now
right by the tree was a bell and Mr.
Rabbit was lucky enough to step
on it, In surprise the door opened
and hedge hog stood in the door
who invited Mr.. Rabbit in Mr.
Rabbit told Mr.. Hedgehog all of his
troubles. The hedgehog felt sorry
for the Rabbit and jumped up and
led Mr. Rabbit into a room all fill
led with gold and silver and pre-
cious stones. Mr.. Hedgehog gave
Mr. Rabbit enough to last for two
years and told Mr.. Rabbit when he
wanted money to turn around in
front of glass three times.
When Mr.. Rabbit came out it
was almost noon. Mr. Rabbit hur-
ried up town and got many grocer
les and hurried home. In surprise
he found his little hut a fine house.
He went in and his wife got a
feast and the family lived happy
ever after.

What Stanley Caught

ooh, dear, MOI" cried Stanley's
mother, Don't you know that the
Graham children have the measles
and its very catching?"
What does 1t catch?" asked
Stanley, stretching his eyes wide
open.
ut will catch you if you go too
near" laughed Mrs. Cox. But you
may go down to the cottage and
play with Norman White for an
hour"
"All right, Mother" said the lit
tie boy, but he said it slowly and
not in a very pleased tone. The
truth was, the Graham children
lived in fine house with a big
playroom and lots Of toys, while
Norman'S home was small and had
not much Of anything in it except
little brothers and sisters.
But after all Stanley had jolly
time. AS the Whites had so few
things, the children had learned to
make believe" the more, and
everybody knows that make be-
lieves are much more fun than real
things. For there was a limit to
Graham's toys and fine things, but

THE WISE FooL-Part u

Within a few hours the Fool
found that he was to be crowned Inn
mediately. In vain he protested
he was not the Prince, but only
the court Fool. The chamberlain
thought his grief had upset his
mind and that time would bring
the boy to his senses.
But down below the real Prince
was having a hard time. When the
cook unlocked the shed door, he
grabbed the Prince by the arm.
1.-The King Is dead" he cried.
1.-THE court will be in mourning. We
will not need you for some time, SO
hurry back to your hut In the field.
But take these as my good wishes
to YOU" and at this the man threw
a dish of apple Feelings at the lads
head.
The Prince knew better now than
to display any temper, but he ran
to the palace gate. Let me in"
he shouted as he hammered at the
great bars II am the Prince!"
Here, get out of this, you Fool, /"
snorted q sentinel, pacing by. Clear
out. Don't you know the King is
dead? Get back to your hut" With
that he jerked the boy up, and
threw him over the roadway into
the lake.
Wet and aching the Prince wad-
ed out to the bank. There he sat
down in tears. He was hungry,
soaked to the skin with cold water,
and there was no shelter for him.
"You better get out of here quick
ly," whispered passing page in
his ear. II heard the guard tell
the Captain to have you put in the
guardhouse" And the kind-heart-
ed boy pressed gold coin in the
Princes hand with wishes for his
good luck.
The Prince looked toward the pal
ace. Sure enough two soldiers
were coming toward the lake. TAX

there was no limit to Whites make
believe.
What did you play today, SON.
n.y." asked Mrs. Cox when Stanley
got back to his home.
"Oh. we played fairies. and
brownies. and soldiers and knights"
answered Stanley, ''and we had the
best time, mother"
What did the fairies and the
rest of your company do?" she
asked
why we picked up chips and
brought water and shoveled snow
for Mrs. Scott and Mrs. Meyers, too.
1t was such fun because Mrs.
White made believe she didn't see
us, and she wondered what good
brownies we're working for her.
ALI doesn't have any chips at his
house, and he doesn't know how to
be working brownie"
II see there was something at
the Whites as well as at the Ora
hams that was catching" said
Mrs. Cox, smiling.
What was it," asked Stanley in
surprise.

said Stanley's mother, but / call

"The Secret" IA Story

One day when Carl Melting was
playing out in the yard, his mother
called to him and said:
"Come, Carl, run over to the gro
Gerry store and get me some seal
ing wax, hurry back though and
don't loiter on the way"
"All right, mother" he said, II
won't be gone long.
So off he trotted over to the gro
Gerry store which was two squares
off. Now 1t happened as Carl was
going to the grocery he met Paul
Wright, little playmate of his,
with whom his mother had forbid
den him to play. OF course we all
know boys are easily tempted. Paul
motioned to Carl to come some
place where none could see or hear
them talking in passing Paul
said as they got there, Say. Carl,
you know that dandy fishing place,
don't you?-Well, anyway If you
will come with me, we will have a
great time"
WELL" said Carl, "my mother
told me to get her some sealing
wax"
While Carl was thinking whether
to 90 or not, Paul hurried over the
fields to his home but just missed
his mother from seeing him sneak
into the barn for his fishing pole.
AS he got back to Carl he was still
standing there in the same place.
"Now come on Carl" he said. II
have my fishing pole and bait; after
all the trouble l have gone to, you
surely wouldn't go back on me
now" Carl finally made up his mind
to go and said. II suppose II l don't
want an enemy I'll have to go,
wont II"
Finally they reached the spot
where the fishing pond, as they
called It, was. There was large
rock or boulder in the middle of
the stream, upon which frog was
playing.
This of course attracted the boys
attention more than their fishing
rod. Once the frog slipped off the
rock into the water, this seemed
very funny to the boys and Paul
lost his balance and slipped but Carl
managed to get him out. He had
to run home real quick to get dry
clothes on.
Carl forgot all about his mothers
sealing wax and when he got home
his mother of course wanted to
know what had kept him so long.

He stammered awhile trying to
make some excuse, but OF no use
His mother said, you needn't try
to tell me any excuses of yours
for l suppose that playmate Paul
of yours has put you up to some
thing, no doubt You deserve to be
put to bed without any supper. Now
go along, you little good for no
thing fellow. always letting some
one tempt you to do something"

Story for Tonight

down the road, over the fence
across the field and into the forest
path. 1t was getting dark. A cold
wind whistled through his wet
clothing, and he was staggering
with weakness. Presently he came
to village ind peeked into several
windows, but feared to knock at
door on account of his dress. He
saw within the sick turning in
their beds with pain, the poor eat
ing their dry bread. the workmen
in their shirtsleeves before their
fires. He saw little children busy
making toys, but happy in the hum
BILE homes. He saw the rich at their
fine dinners. but the look of sor-
row on their faces. And as he
viewed life for the first time in it's
reality he forgot his own plight.
Up at the castle the Fool was
busy. They will make me king" he
said. so will do my duty we'll"
And when they had put him on
a throne and placed in his hand
sceptre and on his head q golden
crown, he applied himself to cor
recting the evils which he knew ex-
listed in the kingdom. The old, the
sick and the helpless he ordered
to be placed in comfortable homes,
where they would be happy for life
He put the bad judges in Jail and
filled their places with good ones,
and all over the land was felt the
care and good he put into his work
The people had plenty of work and
were happy and prosperous.
In the meantime the Prince had
learned to work as a plowboy for
farmer. He rose early, worked
hard, and spent the days in the
fields. But he grew patient, rosy
and saw the lives of the people
One afternoon as he stopped his
horses under an apple tree he saw
again the form of his godmother
by the piow.
Il thing you have learned your
lesson well, my son." she said.
You will be q better man now
and make father to your people.
Spoiled by too much petting, you
would have developed into worse
King. Now you know how to con-
troll yourself and feel for others.
and am ready to put you back
again in your right place as King.
Go ask to see the one whom all
call King-take him down to the
garden path and there will meet
YOU
The Prince walked to the palace
and was admitted to the Kings
presence. The King-who was in
reality the Fool-knew at once who
the lad was I'VE will take a walk
in the garden" said the Fool, whom
men called the King-'I have seen
your godmother and she promised
to meet us there"
Within few moments the two
young lads stood on the spot at
which they had been when the fairy
first saw them. In a twinkling Of
an eye they were changed back
into their original forms--the
Prince looked like himself again
and the Fool assumed his own
shape and clothing.

At daylight they resumed their
Journey, and shortly after sunrise
the war party overlook them. Hav-
ing won a decisive victory and
captured many ponies, the Pawnees
were greatly elated. They ap-
preached, singing their war songs
and waving their trophies. Several
noted warriors had been killed in
the fight, however, and when the
people learned this, the rejoicing
gave way to wailing and lamenting.

Feather said, enthusiastically, as
he rode beside Little Raven. my
father was very brave. His pony
was killed, and as he ran across
the plain four Cheyennes rode
after him. But he turned and Kill
led two of them. Then he jumped

banks were clothed with splendid
growth of willows. AS they I'M
packed and set up the lodges, Lit
tie Raven believed that they intend
ed to remain there several days.
Yes, we will wait here for Lazy
Horse and his people, who will come
from the west. Then we will go to
the foothills to meet Yellow Cloud"
Straight Feather explained.
Early the following day Lazy
Horse and his people arrived. The
two tribes decided to remain at the
stream another day to rest the
ponies and to celebrate Two Moons
victory over the Cheyennes. Lazy
Horse said that party of his hunt
ers had turned off toward the south
to follow a small herd of buffaloes
Shortly after midday these warriors
rode into camp, each leading a
pack-horse loaded with meat. They
said that one of their companions
had been caught in the herd. It
was not long, however, before this
man galloped safely into camp. He
brought great news. He said that
he had discovered very large war
party a days journey to the south.
But as the riders were long dis
lance away he had been unable to
identify them.
"They are Cheyennes," said Two
Moons. This will be a great bat
tie"
Then he called all the warriors
in council and organized a great
war party. A short time afterward
two-thirds of the fighting-men of
both tribes rode away under the
combined leadership of Two Moons
and Lazy Horse. The balance of
the warriors were left to protect
the camp. This time the medicine
man went with the war party, and
Little Raven hoped he had seen the

He galloped away on one of Two

affection. He had learned to look

his friend, and he believed that If

Force is of brutes, but honor is
Of man.--Dryden.
The Glasgow courier., 1916-02-11

The particular section referred to
is that which says an elector may
vote for but one delegate to nation
al conventions Of his party, yet there
are 10 of these to be selected by each
party. Among the other defects
pointed out are the following:
While a petition asking that
names of candidates be printed up
on. the primary ballot is mentioned
in the law, no form of such petition
is prescribed.
Except in the case of delegates to
national conventions, the number of
signatures required on such petit
tions is not prescribed. In no case
is the number of counties and pre-
cincts in which the petitions should
be circulated prescribed.
The law does not specify the time
within which petitions must be filed
with the secretary Of state. That be-
ing the case, one might file a petit
ton now for the primary to be
held in 1920, or one might wait un-
til the day before the primary to file
his petition, thus making it impos-
sible to print his name on the pri-
mary ballot. The law makes no
provision for the selection of alter
nate delegates to national conven-
tions or for national committeeman.
The fact has developed in Butte
within the past week that party
leaders are worrying over the possi-
bility of complications arising.
Some share the fear that the validity
of the act may be successfully at
tackled, while others are hopeful that
a working plan may be agreed upon
some essential features read into
the law, or construed to be UNDER
stood, possibly-that will allow it to
stand and be operative in the coming
elections. But if such an arrange
ment could be reached it is agreed
that Montana's presidential primary
law needs some fixing and that it
must be fixed at the next session of
the legislature.

STATE G. O. p. MEETING.

In pursuance with the provisions of
a resolution adopted at the last meet
ing of the Republican State Central
committee, Chairman E. A. Sedway
has called a meeting of the committee
to be held in Helena February IL at
the Placer hotel, says the Helena
Record.
At the last meeting special
committee was appointed consisting
of George Robertson of Cascade
county, Frank Keith of Missoula coun-
ty, and c. S. Henderson of Silver
Bow, to consider the presidential pri-
mary law, and report back to the ad-
journed meeting on the procedure to
be followed, the necessary steps to
be taken, and other matters in con-
nection with launching the republican
presidential campaign in Montana.
According to the talk in political
circles, the presidential primary law
is about as poor an excuse for law
as was ever put on the books. Secre-
tary of State A. M. Anderson is sup
posed to administer. He is perfectly
willing, but he is not going to at
tempt to point out what the intent
of the law is. He will file every nom.
ination that is submitted to him anG
certify that it has been filed. This il
as far as he will go.

FIRE HAS
BROKEN THROUGH WALL

Lansforu. Pa.-The famous mine
fire which has been raging for more
than 60 years and which started at the
summit hill near the spot where
Phillip Ginter discovered anthracite
coal in 1871, has at last burned
through the immense concrete wall
which the Lehigh Coal and Navigation
company sank in front of it, deep
down into the earth several years ago,
at cost Of more than S1,000,000. 1t
is now threatening the mammoth vein
in the Panther creek valley, the
largest and richest vein of anthra-
cite coal in the world.
The wall. which was sunk into the
ground to a depth of 100 feet, was
15 feet thick. of solid concrete and
experts believed that the subterran-
can fire would never eat through it,
but that it would prevent it from
spreading any further and eventually
extinguish it. The fact that the
flames have eaten through this huge
barrier has caused grave fears among
the Lehigh Coal and Navigation Of
ficials, who are now putting forth
every possible effort to prevent the
fire from getting into the vast beds
of anthracite in the vicinity.

THAT SICK HEADACHE.

The victim of sick headache
wants relief-and wants it at once!
Unfortunately certain drugs and
widely advertised Headache cures"
will bring very prompt relief, tempor-
arily. Naturally the temptation is
great to resort to these so-called
cures, because they may be taken
without loss of time and with very
little exertion. But despite all this,
never take any drug unless your doc
tor prescribes them for you. There
are safe ways for relieving headaches,
but so-called headache cures is not
one of them.
First take some quick-acting laxa-
tive. A saline laxative is good for
quick results, epson or rochelle salts.
This is to clean out the intestinal
tracts, and help in permanently curing
your headache. For the prompt re-
lief, or as prompt as it is possible to
secure with safety (Which means
without the use of dangerous drugs),
first secure absolute rest and quiet.
An emetic is almost always advis-
able in case of very serious sick
headache. Especially is this true if
the suffering comes on right after, or
soon after, hearty meal. There are
all sorts of emetics, some good, some
too strong and wretching to be desir-
able, but the emetic that seldom fails,
the one approve above all others, is
so simple that I find it difficult to
make patients take it. That is luke
warm water!
One glass won't do it, nor two nor
three, will not always do it. But if
you will continue to drink down, one
after the other, glass after glass Of
lukewarm water, the desired result
will come about, and it will come cas-
lily and painlessly. 1t is best to stand
up while drinking the water, and near
receiving bowl. have made reluct-
ant patients drink warm water, stand
ing over them and literally forcing
them to do it, and the result was al
ways a thorough cleansing out Of the
stomach until all poisons were gone,
and after that the patient would
readily fall asleep, only to wake with
the headache gone-not relieved,
but literally cured.
