The women of the club realized
that though all funds for this pur'

no time to hesitate. So they place
a call for help in the daily paper, des'

the articles which were most needed
in that little home.
The call was not made in vain. In

Meatless Dict Helps Complexion.

Have you a tendency towards rheu-
matism? Is your skin rather coarse
in texture, bIotehy in color, does it
flush and spot after eating rich foods,
or after drinking something rich and
sweet? If so, you will find that
a course of meatless diet for about
three or four weeks, will be the best
treatment you can give yourself.

A Freighter's Mule
BY John b. Rich.

Sees him first a pullin' freight loads from Fort Benton
workin' in the lead Of fourteen; skinner drivin' him
That fa b bussn and fer kickin,, never seen his ekal yet
But fer luggin' in the collar, he was allus there, you bet.
Pullin' through the Blackfeet lands.
Where the Blood and Piegan bands
Begs Great Napa there for rain signs-prays to him with
And the north winds wave the bunchgrass in the way
we understands.
Sees him next among the miners; seemed at home around
Kicked a pack boss most to pieces-acted just as if
That a-hauiin' in the needfuls were his calm here ON
And them side kicks never counted none at all against
his worth.
Climbin' up to Cripple Creek,
Where them Argonauters seek
For the golden fleeces buried in the shadder of Pixies
In the game of chance where Fortune sometimes smiles
upon the weak.
All along the old day frontier. there he were right in
the line,
Haulin' rations for the soldiers. lookin' out for 1njun
'Mongst the buffaloes and redskins,-ute, Cheyenne and
cunnin' Cree;
Done his part to win the westland, blazin' trails for you
an me.
Up at sound of reveille,
Chasin' PEACHES every day,
Best scout listed in the service, smell an Injun miles
Only scout that draws no pension, only one that got no
pay.
Meets him oncet out on the desert, creepin' 'crost them
Floods of sand and sun and greasewood.-years and
years it never rains;
Trails of bones of life that's perished,-days like them
you can't forget,
Though his ears was loppin' forward, hearts like hisn
never quit.
Reelin' long them sun-flayed trails,
Where the sand clouds spread like sails,
And the sun shows red at midday, fiIin' up them scorch-
in gales,
Where the heat shoves up from under-stifnn' heat that
never fails. H
There in all the mining stampedes. helped to put the
railroads through,
Laid the route from Butte to Deadwood. clear on down
to Bisbee, too;
Bucked snow into Thunder Mountain-stirrin' pictures
he could draw
OF his life along the freight trails leadin' down to
Tonopah.
This old timer bears the stamp
OF a regular rovin' tramp,
Wandrin' through this grand old Westland. sorter slow
and lazy scamp,
Still this poky rascal always beat the mail trains into
camp.
Fifty years he's trailed the ranges-mountain, desert,
grassy plain,
again;
Wise and patient, full of cunnin'-friends of his'n likes
to boast
That a freight mules almost human, seeing he's a
gamblers ghost.
When he goes to Davy Jones,
Never is no craven stones
Raised to brag about his doin's, but out where the night
wind means,
There beside the trails he travelled, lies his lonely,
bleachin' bones.

THIS LEGISLATOR
Is FOR HER SEX
MRS, MAGGIE SMITH HATHAWAY
OF RAVALLI HAS SOME NEW
LAWS IN PROSPECT.
She Would Have Woman Deputy
Sheriffs and Women Jailers;
Would Compel Men to Take Care
of Their Children; Author of the
Mothers Pension Act.

Mrs. Maggis Smith Hathaway,
member elect for Ravalli county to
the legislature, has opened her head
quarters in Helena. She is out to in
troduce legislation which will be of
benefit to women. One of the meas
ures which she proposes is a law
which will provide for women depu-
ty sheriffs to have in custody women
prisoners. If she succeeds in secur-
ing the passage of this law it will
mean the appointment of women de-
putty sheriffs in every county in the
state and women police officers IN
every town. Mrs. Hathaway insists
that this law is necessary and will
preclude the possibility of women
prisoners making false charges
against ~jailers and deputy sheriffs.
"People of the state mustn't expect
the women legislators to do every
thing" said the Ravalli county wom-
an legislator. 1--WE anticipate the
help of the good men and hope to do
much good for the women and chill
dren of the state.
To Protect Children.
"In addition to the effort to pro-
vide woman caretakers for women
prisoners, l will urge a law to compel
men to take care of their children,
that certain changes be made in the
mothers pension law and that the
legislature submit the prohibition
question to the people as a constitu-
tional amendment to make the meas
ure more stable"
Mrs. Hathaway stumped the state
for woman suffrage in 1914 when
that measure was successfully passed
and talked for prohibition during the
last campaign, speaking in every
neighborhood in Ravalli county.
Her Work in Ravalli.
An evidence that her work in her
home county was effective is shown
by the fact that Ravalli county, her
home section, heads the state in the
prohibition vote this year and head
ed the state in 1914 for suffrage.
Mrs. Hathaway was county super
intendent of schools of Lewis and
Clark county in 1909 and 1910 and
later married B. T. Hathaway, who
was then deputy state superintendent
of public instruction.
Author of Mothers Pension Act
She is author of the present moth
er's pension act, which was intro
duced in the last legislature by
Dwight Mason of Missoula.
Mrs. Hathaway ranches in the Bit
ter Root valley and states that sh'
would rather look after her Jerse.
cows than get votes, but consider
it her duty as a widow without chill
dren to work in behalf of Legislation
affecting them.

 NEW COMPANY

The Honey Boy Mining Company was organized two years ago, but the property did not show up satisfactory and no stock was issued. Mir. Chill berg and myself paid $7,000 for de- velopment work. This company will now be revived to take over the bonds on the 30 claims known as the Me Kinley Lake property. 22 miles from Cordova. tThis psoperty carries five veins from 10 to 70 feet wide, and Mr. James Henley an expert and ge- ologist. spent month on the property in 1915, and his report shows an av- craze assay of many samples of $5.06 per ton of 115 feet of vein. I have sampled twice and my sampling veri- fies his work. am spending $2,000 of my own money on development, and want to spend $10,000 during the winter. I am offering 100000 shares of capital stock at 10 cents per share. am not asking anyone to put in a dollar. I have this to say: In July the Treadwell mine ran $2.00 ore and had a profit of $48.O0O. If they can make money on $2.00 ore and the Gastineau on $1.30, is not 115 feet of vein averaging $500 per ton on salt water, with plenty of timber on the ground a good thing?

ORE DEPOSITS OF
 PRINCE WILLIAM SOUND

The ore deposits of the Prince Wil- liam Sound region may be grouped broadly in two classes-copper depos- its and gold-bearing quartz lodes. The mineral associations in both gold and copper deposits are in general the same, so that the copper mines pro- duce large amounts of gold or silver or both, and copper sulphide is pres ent in- small amounts in many of the gold quartz veins.
 The known productive mines on Prince William Sound in 1915 .in- clude four copper mines and five gold mines. A much larger quantity of copper ore than of gold quartz was mined and treated, and the total val ue of the metals produced from the copper ores was about five times thai obtained from the gold quartz ores. The value of the total mineral pro- duction of the Prince William Sound region in 1915 was $1.340.00O as compared with s1,2OO,0O in 1914.
 The above information as well as a detailed description of the mines and prospects visited is contained in O report entitled Mining on Prince William Sound. Alaska" by B. l.. Johnson, recently issued by the Uni ted States Geological Survey Depart mont of tho Iufprior as Bulletin 642-D.

Should anyone want this stock at 10 cents per share they can leave the money with Frank Willard and get Q receipt for same, and on my return from Seattle where I am going soon, will have the stock books and will cause the stock to be issued to par ties holding receipts. It makes no difference to me whether the stock Is sold here or not. We will still be friends, but I thought proper to let the good people in Valdez in provid- ing they desired to come.
