new HOTEL FOR
FLATAEAD LAKE
PAlATtAL FERRY eoATs TO az
CONSTRUCTED TO PLY De.
TWEEN RAILROAD
TERMINALS.

That a thoroughly modern hotel will
soon be erected ut one of the most
picturesque sites on Fiathead lake is
the statement OF Col. A. A. White, who
states that the F1athead Lake Hotel
company will be organized at once
with headquarters at Helena. Col
White has made the announcement
that this concern will also build two of
the most palatial ferry boats in the
world to ply day and night between
the railway terminals at the north and
south ends Of the lake.
Col. White, who is now "A years o
age. has been spending his summers or
Flathead lake for the past 80 years
and says that he hopes to live &c years
longer to gee the Flathead lake de-
vclop into one Of the greatest summer
resorts in the world.-Adv.

ANNOUNCEMENT,

! have spent my summer vacations
tor the past 80 years on F'lathead lake,
and am now "a years of age. and hope
to live rs years longer and see the
greatest and most renowned summer
resort in the world built around the
zoo miles of shores and on the islands
Of this most wonderful awe inspiring
mountain lake.
Until recently. Flathead lake has
been isolated and unknown to the
world. being located in the heart of
the Rocky mountains between two
transcontinental railroads passing on
the north and south.
Ever since the completion OF these
two transcontinental railroads. l have
diligently and persistently pointed out
to the Powers that Be" the advis-
ability of building branch lines to
reach both ends of the lake, using
water transportation for the connect
ing link between the railroad termin-
ais. thus uniting the north and south
portions Of the state Of Montana. as
well as the two national parks stu
ated within its borders.
The great ambition OF my life will
soon be realized. A branch line touch
ing the north shore Of the lake is and
has been in operation for some time
and branch line from the south. to
terminate at the south shore of the
lake, is rapidly nearing completion
and in order to further improve IA
cilities for the taveling public, l shall
Immediately incorporate the Flathead
Lake Hotel company. to be capitalized
for one million dollars. for the pur.
pose of erecting a thoroughly modern
hotel on one OF the most picturesque
sites on Flathead lake, and also tc
build two of the most palacial ferr,
boats in the world. with ample ia.
cilities for carrying 1000 passengers
and 30 automobiles, to ply day anG
night between the railway terminals
at the north and south ends of the
lake. 50 miles apart.
The main office Of the Flathea6
Lake Hotel company will be immedi.
ately opened at Helena. the capital o,
the state of Montana, and stock sub.
scription books opened to subscriber,
for the entire capital stock of one
million dollars.

the most successful among Mr..
Vance's most stirring navsls Of adven-

goes 60 make a feature picture Of uni
verssl interest. The plot Is ingenions
and moves with rapidity and weslth
of dramatic surprises thst sre certain
to keep the spectators keyed to the
highest pitch Of excitement.
The theme concerns the adventures
of q master cracksman known to the
police IS the Lone Wolf, and charm.
ing and clever member OF the secret
service. Most photodramas have one
big thrill ''TEe Lone Wolf breaks
ali records by containing no lees than
three mig Incidents, any Of which
would be sufficient to form the M.
cleus for single production. "The
Lone Wolf is in eight big won etful
parts, which holds the entire interest
throughout.
The Lone Wolf is a production

great The critics have pronounced it
a screen masterpiece.

Fifteen on The Fifteenth.

Were l brought to believe that a
birthday celebration is ever an affair
of unmixed loneliness. / should perhaps
be brought to say it concerning one
for fifteen ON the fifteenth. Fourteen
on the fourteenth lacks flavor, is lit
tie unripe, like fruit imported before
the real season is at hand Sixteen on
the sixteenth is a little over-mellow, n
little late; already childhood is gone,
and youth, however lovely it may be in
the receiving Of homage and favors,
should already have its hands out
stretched rather to hestow them. But
fifteen on the fifteenth! There is
golden mean and time for all things,
as the Scriptures and the fairy tales
tell us This was the time to dance,
that King Solomon talks about. Like
the "Tuney Bears" soup in the old
tale, this party TO celebrate fifteen on
the fifteenth seems TO me as nearly
right as things can be conceived in a
world of chance like our own.--Laura
Spencer Porter, in the Atlantic.

DIETARY RULES FOR THE AGED
Total Amount Of Food Consumed Must
Be Diminished and Vegetables
Should Be Used Freely.

Owing to the diversity in extent and
character Of the senile changes in diff
ferent individuals, II is impossible to
arrange for aged persons a general
dietary based upon calories, proteins,
etc, but it is possible to make some
broad concentrations, and this is what
DR.. /. l.. Nascher did at n meeting Of
the Medical Association of the Greater
City of New York. The Medical Jour.
nal gives the following synopsis Of
Doctor Nascher's advice:
1.-THE total amount of food must be
diminished. With the falling out of
teeth, the amount of meat must be
diminished, and it must be thoroughly
cooked and finely chopped. Vegetables
containing much cellulose should be
used freely. Foods should be prepared
in liquid, semi-liquid or mush form,
and dry foods, especially smoked foods
and nuts, should be avoided.
"Food should not be given at shorter
intervals than four or five hours. Mild
alcoholics with meals and at bedtime
