The thing Of living in the country Is

The thing Of living in the country is
great.
First, all you need is a place to live
in; and then a horse and a COW and
some pigs and chickens.
Then, all you need is some feed for
horse and cow and pigs and chickens,
and strong man
But that's next; strong man to
feed them.
Then you need to read all the farm
er books and government bulletins.
and learn just how things should be
done.
Then you need the nerve to 20 and
tell your man how to do everything.
and the courage to watch him do it
another way and ignore your instruc-
tons.
After that all you need is the
gall to pretend that you did it, when
a bean comes up the way it was in
tended.
But, with all that, it's the life: and
a fellow could stand it if it wasn't
for the mortgage and paying the man
and buying the feed.-Richmond

Mrs. Carriers Pipe Smoked
BY Gen. fOCh

Newspaper readers will no doubt re-
call seeing in the Sunday supplements
recently the photograph of Marshal
YFoch, of France, and Chief Plenty
Coops smoking the pipe of peace" at
Grow Agency, in Montana.
The picture attracted considerable
attention at the time, mainly because it
was unusual. 1t was learned today
that the pipe smoked on that occasion
by the little Frenchman who command
ed the allied armies during the world
war is owned by Mrs, A. Garrett Car
ter, of Grow Agency, who formerly
was Miss Charlotte Conner, Of Win
chester.
The ceremony of smoking the pipe
of peace was witnessed by Mr.. and
Mrs. Carter and also by Mr.. and Mrs.
Clarence Hoover and Mrs. Mary Con-
ner, mother of Mrs. Carter and Mrs.
Hoover
Mr. Hoover brought with him a
clipping from Billings Mont news
paper, telling something about the pipe
General Foch and the Indian chief
smoked while an immense crowd Of
spectators looked on. The paper says:
The long handsomely decorated
ceremonial pipe smoked by Marshal
Foch and c hief Plenty Coops at Grow
Agency last Monday will be placed on
display this morning in front window
of the Bowen Clothing Company store.
The pipe, owned by Mrs. a. G. Carter,
of Grow Agency, was brought to Bill
ings by Richard Throssel.
The red stone of the Indian pipes
com es from near Pipestone Mimi. and
| is soft and easily carved when first
qua nied. Exposure to air hardens
the stone, The plains tribes held the
quarry as neutral grounds, taking turns
in securing their pipe material.

THE DOOR SLAMS
ON HAPPINESS
Poor Blood Makes
Bad Health Then
Come the Blues"

Once the vigor of red blood becomes
sapped of its strength, the door to hap
piness is literally slammed. WEAKNESS
of body follows and it unfailingly en-.
genders depressed thoughts. To be
reserved and cherries becomes a
habit. After time there is an almost
filmy dimness in the expression of the
eyes and pallor to the skin. Days
seem dull and dark and difficult. A
sense Of insufferable gloom pervades
the spirit.
Then it is that Guides Pepto Mangan
is the great help. It is red blood
builder. 1t puts red into the blood
increases the number or corpuscles
which make blood rich and red. When
the blood is restored to its natural
healthy state, the sensation of well-be
ing returns. Instead of shuffling along
carelessly, there is the firm and springy
step, the bright lusterful eyes, the clear
complexion, identified with the strength
and vigor of good health. The drug
gist has Guides Pepto-Mangan in bot
liquid and tablet form. Advertisement.
