Yellowstone Opens
January Breakup of Ice In Yellow
stone River Very Unusual

The many thawing days Of the past
two weeks and several soaking rains,
caused ice in the Yellowstone River
to break and clear the channel on
Monday morning early. Thirtytwo
years ago the ice went out under
nearly the same conditions as this
year, and the records show that the
ice broke once in December, and
number OF times in February. Other
sections of the northwest report
heavy floods during the present spell
of fall weather
However, the ice merchants need
not worry, as thre have been no years
in this section when good ice cannot
be harvested before the end of March

D;urnaI AmeIioration

(The formula of the Coue method
of auto-suggestion is. Day by day in
every way | am getting better and
better. This might prove more effec-
tive if put into verse, as follows:)
l have eighty separate ailments by
the newest diagnosis,
Ranging all the way from fever to
arteriosclerosis;
There are pains around my kidneys
more severe than tongue can utter;
My digestion simply isn't and my
heart has quite a flutter;
There is something bent or missing
in the strongest of my vitals,
And the finest organ in mes off
the key of it's recitals;
Yet my mind is all unconquered and
acknowledges no fetter;
For in spite of all my aches and
pains, | know I'm getting better.
Oh! I'm really getting better, bet
ter, better better, better;
Yea, I'm really getting better, nay,
I'm really getting better;
SO I'm really getting better, better,
better, better better. York

A new and incurable disease that
the doctors cannot diagnose is thus
explained in the medical journal:
I'VE are at loss to account for this
peculiar complexus of symptoms,
condition evidently chronic as reveal
ed by the history of the last three
years, with yaws and suppurating OF
tits as predecessors, yet with acute
exacerbations, condition not clearly
explained on the basis of an organic
lesion of any one organ, yet showing
cardaic enlargement, albuminuria and
cylindruria, general adenopathy, icter-
us, with a secondary anemia not re-
markable for the great reduction in
red corpuscles or hemoglobin, but
strikingly atypical in the large num-
Der of nucleated red corpuscles of
the normolblastic type and in the ten
dency of the erythfocytes to assume
a slender sicklike shape"

THE DINNER
@MARY RAHAM BOWER

George Green Frog was dining with
the Sbons who lived at Gums Landing
and II you spell those words around
you will see what they really mean.
George had been putting on airs OF
late and had thought his home pond
was not good enough for him and so
the Pond Fairy had taken him to see
these creatures.
He was very happy when first he ar
rived for he thought that here he
would be appreciated. In the pond
they hadn't noticed him any more than
the others. And almost as soon as he
had arrived he was asked to dinner.
George was right on time at the party
and soon after he had arrived the din,
ner began. Everyone was talking.

sick.
"Of course they did not know what

But as the dinner went along the
people, to Georges mind, seemed to
grow shorter and shorter and smaller
and smaller and even their voices
seemed to die away. Then one little
person spoke up and said: 1T was
