things were so beautiful and quaint
and oh, so cheap. Louise bought a
number of toys to take back home
for her little brothers. Among Thel-
mas purchases was a huge bottle of
expensive perfume, but she was so alb
sorbed in the sight that it dropped and
smashed into little bits. A sober po-
liceman commanded her to pick it up.
She rammed them into her pocket and
we walked away a. rapidly as we
could for the people were staring
curiously. Among the interesting
sights was the statue of Friedrich the
Great. Also the palace which was a
beautiful long shaped building with
wonderful carving above the windows.
We were told there were a great many
wars while Frederick reigned.

wouldn't hold it all.
When we arrived in Hamburg we
got acquainted with Major Gillski. He

She went on naming different
things to have at the party. That
same day Jewell wrote out the invita-
lions which read as follows:

Billy Hughes was dressed up as a

The day before the party was such
a busy day that when Lizzie stepped
on Pussy's tail Jewel did not say a
word. Lizzie tied long strings on
the ceiling to which Jewel hung big
rosy apples. Two tubs were brought
in full Of water so that they could
bob for apples too. Secretly Lizzie

prise Jewel.
At last Halloween came. Jewel
was dressed as a witch. Her dress
was made of orange sateen decorated
with black paper cats, and on her head
was a witch's pointed hat decorated
with small paper jack-o'-lanterns,
And what costumes her guests wore!
They were witches, fortune tellers,
COLLINS and clowns. And what fun
they did have! Jewel had borrowed
live black cats from all the neigh.
borhood. Everybody was trying tc
dodge them. Jewel surely was an en-
pertaining hostess. Whey they begar
bobbing for apples Jewel would slir
up behind them and give them a gooc

waxed that morning and was very
slippery. When Betty Lease grabbed
for an apple off a string she slipped
and hurt herself. Jewels mother was
not home, but Lizzie said it was not
bad and Betty didn't want to go home
When lunch time came they were

WALSH HAS QUIT

Senator T. j. Walsh, who has been
stumping the state for B. K. Wheel
er, Cancelled his dates last week and
will not finish his tour. The reason
given by the senator was that he had
developed a bad cold while travelling.
Two years ago he developed the same
disease while touring the state for
the same man who was then a candi-
date for governor. When Senator
Walsh read the sign correctly two
years ago, he quit, and he has read
it again this year. Wheeler will be
defeated. Stamping the state for
Wheeler is a cool proposition any time,
and it is not to be wondered at that
the senator contracted a cold.-Malta

Aided By His Enemies

tell you So" And Immediately the
Democratic state central committee,
with defective musical ear, calls for
an encore
1t is great stuff, and the music of
the spheres has nothing on the Bull
Con- quartet when it comes to singing
the abuses Of Riddick!
When Riddick ran for congress the
first time, four years ago, the Lewis
town tenor of the quartet started
things by tuning up the quartet, only
then it was a duet; to charge Rid
dick with having defauted his duty
as assessor of Fergus county, and the
Great Falls baritone sang a page of
scandal-gossip to local music, with the
result that the leading men of Fergus
county, regardless of politics, rose up
and published a full page denial of
the scandal, the people rose up in dis
gust, and Riddick was elected in a
walk, aided by use of such tactics by
his political enemies. This time the
duet has grown to a quartet and at
temps to sing for all Montana, instead
of the Second congressional district
and Riddick will be elected November
Z regardless of the personal abuse
campaign being carried on against
him.
Which brings to mind again thai
Carl always was a lucky guy in the
political field-in addition to his in
tegrity and interchangeable working
habit! And in addition to that, a!

of the United States once upon a time

Where Does Vanilla Come From?
Monday morning Mary Cruikshank
brought to school a vanilla bean. 1t
had been given to her by a travelling
man. The children in all the rooms
saw it. When Miss Towers, the fifth
grade teacher, held it up and asked
what it was some of them guessed
it was a ~licorice stick, chocolate, can
dy or something good to eat.
The native home of the vanilla bean
is Mexico, Central America, the West
Indies. Ceylon, Tahiti and East Africa.
1t is like a climbing orchid. The seed
lings sprout in the ground and send
up slender twining stems which climb
the trees on which they live, to a
height of 20 to 80 feet, climbing by
fibrous roots. The spices from which
the most valuable vanilla Of commerce
is obtained has slender pods from 6 to
10 inches long. These pods picked
before they are fully ripe, are filled
with oily pulp surrounding the minute
seeds. They are quite scentless when
picked. The aroma, due to the pres
ence of vanilla, develops during the
slow curing and fermentation of the
pod. When the vanilla pod or "bean"
is ready for the market it is a cho-
%colate colored, wrinkled, slender and
pliable, and in the best qualities,
known as Frosted" the pods are cov-
cred with tiny crystals of the vanilla.
Vanilla extract is prepared by dis
solving the vanilla in alcohol. The
vanilla bean is also used in the max
ing of perfumes.-Inger Christopher

Congressman Carl w. Riddick is be-
ing aided by his enemies of the state
Democratic press most decidedly in his
campaign for United States senator
from Montana upon the Republican
ticket. Of curse the press in ques-
ton, being particularly the Butte
Miner, the Helena Independent, the
Lewistown Democrat-News and the
Great Falls Tribune, do not intend to

abuse Of MI. Riddick-and from them
in a political joust every knock in this
way is a boost, to quote from the Ru-
bayat of Omar be Cam.
Just now the entire mud batteries
of the Bull-Con' quartet, the orations
of the near-guns on the platforms and
the propaganda peddling proclivity of
every political pewee of the Demo-
cratic committee, are directed in per-
sonal abuse of Mr.. Riddick, and the
effort is putting his stock up con-
siderably with the voting public.

tenor Of the combination announces
that it would clover the dignity" of
