that one of the chief reasons why farm
mortgages are not in better favor with
investors at the present time is the
very high taxes against farm lands,
and the extravagant issue of bonds by
agricultural counties, which are of
course, a lien on their lands ahead of
the farm mortgages. He said in his
opinion Montana counties and school
districts had nov learned their les
son and would stop trying to spend
so much money and rush so fast into
debt, and as a result that Montana
farm mortgages would gradually come
back into favor. The summer tillage
campaign and better methods of farm
ing being practiced will also help ma
terially, in his opinion.

DEMOCRATS ADOPT GODDESS
OF LIBERTY AS EMBLEM

St. Louis.-The Goddess of Liberty
was adopted unanimously by the ex-
ecutive committee of the Democratic
state committee as the emblem of the
Democratic party in Missouri, succeed
ing the donkey, which has served the
Democratic party as it's emblem for
many years.
Members of the committee said the
change was made because the donkey
as al emblem was neither artistic nor
dignified.
Under the decision reached by the
committee the Goddess of Liberty will
displace the donkey upon the Demo-
cratic ballot in the November election.

OBITUARY
Mrs. Andrew Stiley

The best lives are not always meas
ured by length of years, but rather
by the service rendered in the home
and out in the broader fellowship of
Mankind.
Such is especially true of the subject
of this sketch, whose years were just
a little less than two score and six;
but they were years filled with service
to loved ones and neighbors.
Gertrude Richards, daughter of R.
R. and Mary Richards, was born in
Martinsburg, N. Y, November 16,
1876. When she was but a child the
family emigated to Iowa, settling on
the old stock farm near Otranto. In
1900 they moved across the line into
Mower county, Minnesota. Here she
was married, October Fl, 1908, to
Andrew Stiley. After their marriage
they made their home in Carpenter,
Iowa. Here, ten years ago, a little
son, Richard A., was born to them.
In May, 1917, they moved to Hins-
dale, Montana, which has since been
their home. In this new home an
other little baby boy was born unto
them; but he only tarried for a little,
then answered the call of the Good
Shepherd, who said "Suffer the lit
tie ones to come unto me and forbid
them not, for Of such is the kingdom
Of Heaven"
For about three months Mrs. Stiley
has been in failing health; the last
five weeks of which have been spent
with relatives in the vicinity of he1
girlhood home.
She passed from the scenes anc
loves of this life into the Great Be.
yond October l, 1922.
In addition to the husband and son
Richard, who mourn a true wife anC
devoted mother, there also remain two
brothers, Robert, on the homestead ir
Mower county, Minnesota, and E. B.
across the line in Worth county, Iowa
also four sisters, Mesdames Susie
Schuyler, Usage, Iowa; Maggie Brown
Austin, Mimi; Belle Wuest, Malta
Montana, and Ella Gibson, Duluth
Minnesota.
Many other relatives and a host O.
friends "rise up to call her blessed.
The funeral services were largel!
attended, conducted from the old hom'
above mentioned, Wednesday, Octobe,
4, at 2 p. m. Rev. William Galbraith

are broken off,"
Members of the Dahl family o
Lyle, Minnesota, rendered beautiful
the messages in song.
The body was laid to rest in tn
beautiful Woodbury. cemetery. TIL

WAS NOT THEIR LUCKY DAY
Why Two New York State Boys Sud-
denly Saw There Was No Reason
for Rejoicing.

New York money makers have many
schemes, but here is one which has
probably not been heard of before:
Two country boys from up state Wis
iting an uncle in Brooklyn crossed
the river to Manhattan to "see New
York proper At Union square they
espled d peep show" where one can
see all sorts Of things by dropping
penny In slot.
While one brother was gazing in one
of the slot machines the other glanced
down and observed $40 bill laying
near his feet. AS he stopped hastily
to pick 1t up another man also grabbed
at the greenback, but the country boy
was first and got hold of the piece Of
paper. The stranger Immediately
claimed that he should receive half
of the $50. A compromise was reached
whereby the boy who held the twenty
was to give the stranger oil the money
he had in his pocket and keep the bill.
The amount Of cash given to the stran-
ger was 81, all that the uncle of the
boys would permit them to carry on
their person from Brooklyn.
Returning home the nephews glee-
fully told of their great good fortune.
"Let me see the BILL" said the I'M
Gle. and the boys handed out their
treasure for his inspection. 1t was
q counterfeit New York Sun.

How Tipping .Is Arranged.

One of the hotels on the Riviera is
trying to solve the tipping problem
by a prof1t-sharing system. BY this
Aystem a guest of the hotel is sup
piled with vouchers by the hotel man
agement for part Of the IL per cent
Of his bill which is devoted to pay
ment of the hotels employees. These
vouchers are to be distributed by the
guest among the hotels workers, a
list Of whom is supplied to the guest
with his bill. The system, as one
readily sees, Is not only to get away
from 1t, but by some method which
viii reward service Some hotels have
tried the plan Of adding 10 per cent
to the guests bill and from that
amount distributing tips. But that re-
suited in the careless waiter getting
rs much as the attentive waiter. The
new plan Overcomes that difficulty

Mhx Hope Is Of Value.

A man without hope Is the poorest
man alive because the lack of hope
dulls vision. 1t is hope alone that
makes US willing to live. Man sees
nothing to urge him on to aspire to
higher levels without hope as the foun'
dGtion. And where there is no hope
there Is no endeayOr. Great hopes
make great men and the man who
does not try is pronounced Q failure
Hope makes man see the brighter
aide Of life and makes him believe
that there is pathway that leads e
greater things. When this belief d
assured man will strive to reach the
desires Of his expectations. And tbs
man who honestly, strives for thai
which ne deslres-there is hope fol
him.-C ecelia Anthony ID the Thrift

Have you ever noticed, writes a con.
tributor from Arizona that Ia. very
dry years the quail do not mater We
live in a cattle country where quail
are abundant Last year there was
an unusually dry spring and early
summer; all the vegetation was
parched, and there was no under
growth. Usually several coveys Of
quail nest In wild oak grove, but
last year there was not a single brood
there And the cowboys say that
where they usually would see thou
sands of young quail during the early
summer round-ups they saw only hve
or six broodS,
Usually the quail are all In pairs hy
the LIST of April and do not travel
again in coveys until the young birds
are almost full-grown. They make
rough nests In the underbruSh or In
the cactus or the bear grass, where
they are better protected against the
snnkes and the skunks, which make
away with great many eggs and baby
quail. BY the first of June or earlier
you can see the little families Of from
twelve to fifteen, searching every
where for food. The proud father
marches ahead and calls lusty advice
or warning to his brood, and when
they find a good feeding place he
chooses q high rock or branch and
acts as lookout While the mother
shows the babies the best places to
scratch for worms or seeds Last sum-
mer, however, they travelled only In
coveys. The cattlemen say 1t happens
at rare intervals when the wild feed
is scarce.-Youth's Companion.
