Mile. Mata Hari was, according to
unofficial press dispatches. accused Of
conveying to the Germans the secret of
the construction of the entente tanks"
this resulting in the enemy rushing
operations. She was said to have left
Paris last spring and to. have spent
some time in the English town where
the first tanks" were, being made
afterwards travelling back and forth
between England and Holland and
later going to Spain, where she
aroused suspicion by associating with
a man whom the French secret service
long suspected. When she reappeared
in Paris she was arrested. a contrib
uting circumstance. it appears. being
the fact that she was seen there with
a young British officer attached to the
tank" service Her conviction was
affirmed by revision. court and on
September ~ the supreme court con-
firmed the previous findings.
Matt Kari or to give her full name
Marguerite Zelle Matt Hara. had been
a conspicuous figure on the stage in
Paris and other European cities. where
she is said to have captivated men in
high places She was not beautiful,
but magnetic. Early in her career
she was compelled to leave British In
Ola, where she had married a British
OFFICER, on account of the suspicious
death of her son. She made her way
to Holland and thence to Paris where
she quickly became part of the great
night life Of that city. She met many
men. one of whom was a wealthy Ger
man. high official Of the Berlin gov
eminent. He bought a home for her
at Nieully- sur Seine and furnished it
in style most truly representative Of
Oriental splendor. firing of her
Tenton admirer she hypnotized a high

II is believed, she was living when war
broke out She was a woman emil
nently qualified to act as a secret
agent for Germany. AS a Dutch SUB
ject she was at liberty to travel any
where and 1t seems certain that she
had the facilities for obtaining infor-
nation which would have been impos-
s,ble for Germany to obtain elsewhere.
Espionage was a life which appealed
to her. Her greatest delight was Ia
exercising her influence to control per
sons with whom she came in contact

There's the kind that blazes up bril-

kind that sputters and strives and siz-

There's the kind that lights beautifully

that will strike only on the box. but

There's the kind you bought for your

CONE iALONG, PLEASE.

We respectfully inquire OF tn,
dlenified and worthy Chamber OF
Commerce assto the time when
we may expect a report Of its III
vestigatiOn Of tine milk situation
We know that large bodies move
slowly, but We also remember
that the price Of milk. in Missoula
was raised last July. and that we
have had no information as to
why it was raised save that sub
mitted by the Missoula Cream
cry company.
Bill Nye, thinking himself a
victim OF extortion because he
was charged forty cents for u
ham sandwich by a New Jersey
lunch counter man, asked why.

the man.

milk. We may as we'll under
stand that, at the beginning.
In the interest OF all and keep
ing in mind a square deal for
everybody. the Missoula Cream
cry company included. We have
been content tn await tn. result
of full investigation OF condl-
tons by the Chamber of Com
mercc. an authorized body which
is. presumed TO act at all times
for the interests .6f the entire
community.
Now the people are becoming
impatient. They want to know,
and especially they want to know
why two dealers find it profitable
to sell cream and milk at the old
price while the Missoula Cream
cry company, with its highly eff
ficient organization, has found 1t
NECESSARY to raise the price.
Can you blame them?

Guided rural district was telling Ills
the other day about how the farmers
keep their roads in good shape in the
section in which he was sojourning.
There aren't any state roads in

and no brick or macadam. But the
farmers keep the gravel and dirt
roads in excellent shape. Whenever
my landlord took trip to town. OF
anywhere, he used to hitch a road drag
to his motor car. Then the ear would
pull the drag along the mile or two
that he was interested in keeping up.
He would unhitch the drag and leave
