A society debutante Is bemoanins
the loss of perfectly eligible beau.
She can't think why. A certain florist
to whom she turned back $40 worth
of orchids couple Of weeks ago on =
refund of $40 might be able to throw
little light on the subject. You see
he thought she looked like orchids,
but she and her mamma knew she
was only carnations. He knows 1t

DIG UP MAN-BlRD FOSSIL
Remains Found in Montana Show
Head Like Human Being, With
Body Like Fowl.

A strange fossil, which some credu-
lous persons say was a creature that
was half man and half bird, was
placed on exhibition at the Billings
MONTY chamber of commerce. 1t
was found near Fromberg in the foot
hills and is composed of the sedimen-
tary rock of the Mosozoic period,
which has furnished most of the geo.
logic data on which the Darwinian
theory of evolution is based.
The fossil is about 215 feet high
and the head is shaped like that of
the human, with a well-developed pro-
lection over the base of the brain, a
larger forehead than that Of the ape
and prominent jaw. The body is
