Decision From Fergus
County Upheld by
State Supreme Court

Helena, May 9.-The state supreme
court Tuesday affirmed the decision OF
the district court of Fergus county
in the case of the State of Montana
ex rel Roy A. Hopkins, appellant
against John II. Stephens. sheriff OF
Fergus county.
The property of Henry Brink was
sold under foreclosure. The law gives
Brink the right to redeem his property
within one year. Hopkins sued Brink
on a debt. attached the land and filed
a notice of redemption. The sheriff de-
livered to Hopkins a certificate of re-
demption. but later notified him there
was a prior redemption. The court of
Fergus county ruled for the sheriff on
the ground that Hopkins had no right
as a redemptioner as his lien was not
prior to the bringing of the foreclosure
suit.

Great Falls Lumber
Concern Wins Appeal
Before Supreme Court

Helena, May 9.-The Rogers-Tem-
pleton Lumber company won it's ap-
peal in the supreme court against d.
w. WEIGH ct al, Monday.
This suit was started in 1917 over
an action to foreclose a mechanics
lien on a store building being con
structed in Geraldine by WEIGH. 1t
was alleged in the district court of
Chouteau county that the lumber COM
pany agreed to furnish materials for
81, 600 and that If there was any addi-
tional material needed it would be paid
for at regular prices. The lumber
company claimed the total cost of ma
terials was $2,216.91. WEIGH paid the
81, 500 but contested the remainder.
The lower court sustained him. The
supreme court sent the case back. The
lower court then held the lumber COM
pany could recover 1912 from WEIGH,
but was not entitled to a foreclosure
lien. The company appealed from the
order denying right to foreclose on a
lien,

The critical time of a woman's
life usually comes between the
years of 45 and so, and is often be-
set with annoying symptoms such
as nervousness, irritability, melan-
cholia. Heat flashes or waves of
heat appear to pass over the body,
cause the face to be very red and
often bring on headache, dizziness
and a sense of s%uffocation.
Another annoying symptom which
comes at this time is an inability to
recall names, dates or other small
facts. This is liable to make a
woman lose confidence in herself.
She becomes nervous, avoids meet
ing strangers and breads to go
out alone.

MIGUEL AS COMFORTER

Henry Cameron picked up his daughter in his arms and carried her to a. low cot in the tent. Together he and Don Miguel finally restored her to herself and with his arms tightly round her, the father soothed her to the best of his ability the while he kissed her pale cheeks ocer and over again.
 My darling, my darling" he nut tered, as he srnoothed her hot brow andN tried to bring the color to her face once more. Look at your own father and tell him you are happy at finding him. Please, Ilona. And re- member that your mother waits for you close by. Doesn't that thought make you glad ?''
 My n1other?'' said I1ona in a far off voice. My mother? But ouy dear Caroline was my mother I can have no other. Why do you tell me all these strange things tonight? Mi guel, what have done that you should let this man tease me SOY" turning to her chief as she spoke.
 My poor IIona, you still seem to think that we are fooling, but we are telling you the truth, my dear" an swered Don Miguel, his dark eyes full of pain as he noted the girls be- wiIdered expression and the trem- bling of her lips.
 At his words Ilona broke into peals and peals of hysterical laughter She seemed convulsed by some inward r11irth of her own, in which neither Don Miguel nor her supposed father had any part. Finally. with many a gasp, she came to her senses once more, and with an effort managed to look as though she were interested in all that they were trying to tell her.
 Come, Ilona. try to follow us. my dear" said her father as he patted her hair fondly and pressed her slight form to his. You are not the Prin-- cess I1ona, you are not a gypsy, but I1ona Cameron, my daughter. and ascendant of one of the oldest Ken lucky families. Darling, can't you understand what an honor that is?''
 ..Oldest Kentucky families? An .honor?' rnirnicked Ilona weakly as she flew over to where Don Miguel was standing and threw her arms round him as though for protection. Miguel, Miguel what does it all mean2 For Gods sake. for my sake. tell me Why does this man come here and try to compel me with his eyes2 What have I done, Miguel Haven't danced well for you today2 Haven't always done as you wished
