MONTANA INSTITUTIONS.
(Ans'anconda Standard)

With the approach of the gradu-
ating season, many students of our
local schools are planning TO contin-
ue their studies in higher stitutions
OF lerrnlng, and are considering with
what college they shall become con-
nected. 1t is hoped that Montana
students Will not permit themselves
| to be pesuaded to enter any other
than Montana institution of higher
education. FOO many Montana stu
dents in years past have gone to
other states to complete their stud
les, in the belief that they could re-
ceive a more thorough education
and better training for their work in
lite elsewhere than in Montana
college.
If there has ever been good
ground for such excuses for attend
ing an outside college, it no longer
exists. The Montana colleges, To-
Gated at Missaoula, Bozeman, Dillon
and Butte have improved marvellous
ly in recent years and are still rap
idly improving. They are fully
equipped to give one thorough ed
ucation in any department Of knowl
edge; they are better equipped than
any other college to teach those
things which Montana students par
ticularly want to know and which
will be Of great value to them in
their work in this state.
The local colleges are doing ex-
cellent work and hove become in
stitutions that Montana people are
proud of. They should have the
loyal support of all Montana people
and all graduates Of Montana high
schools, designing to continue their
studies in college, should without
fail select one OF the home institl-
tons. They are not SO old as some
colleges and thew have not as large
faculties or as many students or as
wealthy endoWments as some Of the
big eastern colleges, but they do
their work worthily and they are
doing better work than many older
colleges and as good work as some
OF the best in the land. They may
be recommended without hesitancy
and it is hoped that the school grad
yates will select some one OF the
Montana institutions for the con-
tinuation OF their studies.

The Great CiviIizsr,

In many recent editorial contxfbu-
lions and magazine articles 1t Is con-
clusively proved-were new proof nee
.essary-that the railroad Is the most
potent Of all factors In the civilization
or mankind Not only in a commercial
sense, but In an ethical and religious
sense, the railway is a pioneer, for #
makes possible the intercourse of ma
lions, the broadening Of ideas, the seek
Ing Of newer and better things and the
escape from the undesirable. In the
wake Of the railway come better con-
dtttons OF every sort, for better trans
portation advantages beget better COM
mercial conditions. and they In turn
beget more intellectual DEVELOPMENT
and higher ethical standards. That the
railway Is built primarily as a bust
ness investment does not alter the case.
No claim was ever made that the rail-
way was an ethical enterprise, but
the tact remains, whatever the motive,
that the railway is the handmade of
progress. commercial, intellec.
tual and religious.-New York Mail.

AN ENCHANTED PRINCESS.

Once there lived a poor woodcutter
and his wife in the middle of the for
est. He had three sons called Edward,
George and Albert The two eldest
were thoughtless, but good natured-
One day Edward, the eldest said to
his father. 81 am going out to make
my fortune, father. and when I have
made 1t / will come back"
His father let him go sadly. On the
way Edward passed trap with poor
little mouse in it, but as he was so
thoughtless he did not think of letting
It out
A few days after George set out to
make his fortune. He, too. passed the
mouse, but did not let 1t out
After that Albert left home to make
his fortune. but when he came to the
trap he went up and let the poor lit
tie mouse out. Instantly II became
beautiful princess.
THANK you. dear Albert" she said
to the astonished boy. "a wicked
witch turned me into a mouse, but
Will you come and set my castle free"
Albert said Yes" gladly. So he fol
lowed her, and at last they came to q
grand castle. When they went in no
body was there.
Then the princess said: Tonight you
will be tortured by invisible beings.
You will see only their hands and feet,
but don't say a word, and In the morn
ing 1 will come. This will happen for
three nights. but on the third day the
castle will be yours"
That night when Albert was reading
ten pairs of hands and feet appeared
and pulled his bair, pinched and kick
ed him and tore his book to pieces,
but he never said a word. Next morn
ing the princess came, and with her
came a hundred attendants, whom he
had made free by his watching. That
night the same happened, and In the
morning the princess came with 200
servants now. The third night passed,
and still he did not speak, and in the
morning the princess came with 300
servants and embraced him. She show
ed him all the cellars full of gold
A few days after they were married,
and after that Prince Albert went to
his fathers home to bring him to his
castle. The brothers had come back
penniless through their thoughtless-
ness. They all went to the castle, and
the mother and father lived with Prin-
brothers married the sisters Of Mar
lon, who also had castles. They all
lived to a good old age.

desire is the cheapest sort of sham OBJ
timism. And apparently our writer's
a great many of them-are ready and
eager to meet this demand
81 don't know which is the more
tragic, the fact that a desire for this
sort Of literary pabulum exists or the
fact that there are so many writer's
willing to satisfy that desire, but
do know that the widespread enthu-
siasm for this sort Of writing is the
reason for the inferiority of our novels
to those of England, and, further
more, l think that this evasive ideal
ism, this preference for pretty sham
instead of the truth, is evident not
only in literature, but in every phase
of American life
Look at our politics! We tolerate
corruption. Graft goes on undisturb-
of conscience on the part Of various
communities. The ugliness Of sin is
there. but we prefer not to look at it
Instead Of facing the evil and at
lacking it manfully we go after any
sort of false god that will distract
our attention from our shame Just
as in literature we want the books
which deal not with life as it is, but
with life as it might be imagined to
be lived. so in politics we want to
face not hard and unpleasant facts,
but agreeable illusions.
"Of course" said Miss Glasgow.
I'VE must distinguish between a real
list and vulgarian, and l do not see
how q writer who is absolutely with
out humOr can justly be called real
ist Consider the great realists-Jane
Austen. Henry Fielding. Anthony
Trollope. George Meredith. They all
had humor What our novelists need
chiefly are more humor and more
serious attitude toward life. II our
noyeiSts are titanic enough they Will
have serious attitude toward life,
and if they stand far enough of they
will have humor
81 hope" Miss Glasgow added, that
America will produce better literature
after the war hope that a change
for the better will be evident In all
branches of literary endeavor."

EARLY BULB PLANTING.
Expert Tips About How to Manage
Your Lily Bed.

Expert Tips About How to Manage
Your Lily Bed.
Bulbs are real harbingers Of spring.
and there are no plants so easily
grown nor so inexpensive as hya-
cnths, tulips or daffodils. Inside a
bulb are many thickened scales, which
contain enough stored food to develop
the blooms. Because of this nourish-
ment such bulbs as the hyacinth, pa
per white narcissus and the Chinese
sacred lily may be grown In water II
desired, though water contains prac-
tically no plant food. The whole grow
ing period is supported by the food In
storage.
For the same reason the soil used
for potting bulbs needs to be loose
and porous rather than rich, so that
roots may easily develop. If the soil
is a heavy clay it should be lightened
by the addition Of sand or even finely
sifted coal ashes. Fresh manure must
not be used. Even well rotted manure
should be avoided unless it Is thor
oughly Incorporated in the soil.
The best bulbs that can be bought
are rarely too expensive. A cost of
8 or 10 cents each for bulbs Is unim-
portant when growing plants from
which you expect the best results.
Tulips, daffodils and most other bulbs
should be planted four to eight in
pot, but hyacinths appear best when
planted singly. The pots should not
be large. A little broken pottery is
put over the hole in the bottom for
drainage, and the pot is filed with
enough soil so that when the bulbs
are placed in it they will be just I'M
derneath the soil surface. A little
space is left at the top Of the pot for
water.
After potting, the bulbs are to be
watered thoroughly and placed in the
dark so that they may start their
roots before their tops. Most failures
In bulb planting are due to lack Of
attention to this simple detail

SUMMER STORAGE
MOTH BALLS TO THE FORE.

Although We Cant See Our White
Winged Enemies Flying About, Thsir
Larvae May Even Now Be Boring
Into Our Ermins stoIss and Stables
Now Is the time to lay away all
voolens, furs and similar articles
which must be stored during the sum-
mer.
The time when the moth does most
damage Is not when we see him flying
around The mischief has been done
by the biting Of the little larva or
worm from which he came.
The first thing to do In laying clothes
away Is to see that they are perfectly
clean. Everything wooden, like bath
robes, blankets and underwear, should
b brushed with q whisk broom, If It
cannot be washed first, and exposed to
the sun and air.
II the garment cannot be washed In
water, and we do not care to send It to
the cleaner 1t should never be laid
away dirty with spots Of grease and
food, because these are just the things
that will attract the moth worm first.
The little spot on the lapel Of the
o~ercoat, the slight dirt on the shield
Of child's flannel suit, these are the
places that Mr.. Moth Worm goes for
first Materials which are not thor
oughly washable in water should be
given bath In gasoline and thorough
y aired.
Dresses trimmed with fur should
never be laid away with the fur on
them, but have the fur ripped of, clean
ed in gasoline, brushed and placed In
separate packages. In fact, all fur
must be thoroughly cleaned, brushed
and aired before being laid away.
Moth balls and camphor paper have
been used for long time and are still
used, but we have notifications Of
these now in the tar paper bag and
camphor bag, which are more efficient
In many ways.
These bags come In various sizes.
some very small for children's coats
and sweaters, others half length and
others even full length for evening
dresses or for overcoats.
Another cheap way Of putting
clothes away Is to put them into the
paper boxes, such as come with under
wear and other articles and seal the
covers firmly with strips of gum paper
There are many other articles which
we perhaps cannot lay. away, such as
tufted furniture. cushions, etc. The
best plan is to spray them with gaso-
line or benzine, using a small atomizer
or hand spray, or they can be very
carefully sponged with a diluted solu-
ton Of corrosive sublimate In alcohol
made just strong enough to leave a
white stain.
Light, air. low temperature and fire.
quent inspection are the things neces-
sary for perfect storage.
