The great advantage of bobbed or
shingled hair is that with the aid of a
barber any woman can make her head
shapely and can make her hair grow
into attractive lines. This is particu-
larly true of the back of the head,
for most women arrange the hair SO
it looks attractive around the face in
front, some Of them even get the sides
as they should be, but most of them
completely neglect the back.
In many ways the back view Is
much more important than the front,
for you have your smile, your facial
expression, your eyes, your animation,
to distract attention from your faults,
but the person who looks at you from
behind judges you solely by your phys.
ical appearance. 1t is all important,
then, that the back of the head should
be we'll dressed.
To give your neck a look of slender
ness or to emphasize an already exist
ing slenderness, have your hair cut to
a point in the back. 1t does not mat
ter whether it naturally grows that
way or not; your, barber can make it
do so. The center back Of the head is
allowed to grow little longer while
up each side it is cropped little clos
er, and all hairs out of line growing
down the back of the neck are clipped
off close with scissors. They should

The lid was lifted by means of a large
tassel which hung down one side of

The cooky jar held two or three

orange Juice and milk toast daily, and
is an exceptionally good baby. But
why doesn't he gain? Don't advise
me to give him more food, as he will
take only four to six ounces of his
milk every three hours. Will cod liver
oil make him fat? Do you think he
needs it?"
Answer-Feed your baby only once
in four hours. His appetite will inn
prove. His formula is fine, but he
gets only part of it. 1t is one thing
to prepare the right amount, but in
order to nourish the baby he has to
take it. Give him six ounces, five
times in the "a hours, four times in
the daytime and at 10 at night. In
addition give him cod liver oil (all
babies should have it, and cereal,

Hole. 1t took this name from the great
basin in which it originates. While
the name Lewis and Clark sought to give
the Big Hole river did not remain with
it, the name Wisdom is perpetuated in
the principal town within the great
basin.
THE name Philanthropy did not
stick; it was lost as soo as given. The
next name of the river should have been
retained; 1t was 'Passamari,' pronounced
Pah-sam-er-ri, meaning in the Shoshon-
can language The Water of the Cotton
wood Groves
THE name Passamari was used by the
early settlers to q considerable extent
and was early adopted by the office OF
the United States surveyor general.
The river is still known as the Passa-
mari on the United States general land
Office map.
But it seems that some of the Indi-
ans also called the stream the Sinking
Water and %curiously enough that NAL
odorous name was generally adopted By
the whites rather than that which sug-
gested the pleasant odors of the cotton
woods. There are three stories as to why
the river was called the Sinking Water

The Buffalo Legend

air was laden with the effluvium from

Ruby valley n seemingly they disap-
peared suddenly.
"A variation Of the buffalo legend, and
possibly this should be called a story by
itself, is that a large number Of buffalo
were stampeded over a cliff at the foot Of
which they persisted and rotted. If you
don't believe this story, people can be
found who will show you the cliff.
The third and more probable story Is
that the name Sinking Water came from
the hot springs which lie on the west
side of the river 8 Il mile northerly
from the mouth Of the Sweetwater on
lands now owned by Charles Metzel.
These springs certainly have an odor all
their own. Long before settlers came
the Indians knew that these waters al
leviated the pangs of rheumatism and
were possessed of many medicinal quail
ties. A main Indian trail preceded by
generations the old Salt LAX Dad across
the Blacktail, the Big Hill, down the
Sweetwater and the Passamari, or Stink
ing Water, or Ruby, into the lower valley.
The Legislature Acts
Anyhow the Sinking Water elm
mated Passamari completely. AS the
people began to realize the beauties Of
the valley and to appreciate what a de-
sirable place 1t is in which to live, they
got mighty sick of the ugly name. And
moreover, some made it worse; Tom
Donegan, q smart Irishman with a sharp
tongue, was not alone in calling the
handsome river Stink Creek So in 1877
the legislature was appealed to and by
an act approved February 18th of that
year it was enacted that the name Of
the stream heretofore known as the
Sinking Water river, situated in and
traverslng through the county Of Madi-
son in the territory of Montana, is here
by changed, and the same shall forever
hereafter be known as Ruby river

along whose base it run for so many

there are still many who regret that the

perpetual name of the handsome little

To David Thompson, a British explorer,
does Thompson Falls owe its name. He
was exploring the Clark's Fork OF the

his name to the falls in the Clark's Fork
river. Later on, when a town grew up

The Naming of Helena

Mother Amadeus, Whose Work Among
Indians Endeared Her to Reds and Whites

This dream was a medicine" he said.
II was weeping. The buffalo had fled,
and the glory of the Blackfeet race was
forever departed. I wept for the braves
whose bones were blanching on the hill
side. But / wept more than all for our
little ones growing up about us every

race, now left without the skill and
might of their fathers amid the selfish
white race whose knowledge and speech
and prayer they know not" Then was

''They gathered the little ones about
them and taught them all the secrets
that the white nan knows, and above
all his beautiful prayer. They dis
titled into my soul words of ineffable
consolation. 'Nish. l am done"
This quotation is given as evidence
that the indians realized their condition,
and felt the need of being instructed in
the white mems ways. 1t was their
struggle for existence against untold
odds, including inherited traits. On this
rough and rugged road leading to civil
lization, the missionaries, both Catholic
and Protestant ave been remarkably
helpful.

1892 Mother Amadeus granted a school
to Chief Chariot at Arlee, which was
maintained until his death. She also

M perhaps. someone will answer,

calls that old saying about the

Not SO with the names Of the towns of
Montana. Many OF them are monuments
more permanent than ny carved IN
bronze. epitaphs more full OF sentiment
and respect than n engraved on gran
lite. They will stand throughout the ages
as symbols OF that brave patriotism. that
noble loyalty that Montana's pioneers

There is no subject that leads more
quickly into half forgotten realms and

Montana names and their origin. In the
past OF every town. in the history Of
every city or settlement are to be found
tales OF bravery and daring, as well as
appealing stories OF human weaknesses
and human peculiarities. Then, too. the
Indians OF this country have given us
many Of our best known names n in
tracing back their origin we find old leg
ends n tales on ancient Indian lore.
The Name of Missoula
Let us first OF all look into the origin
VI tle udIlt VI NlSSOuld. Inc mOSU PROP
able theory to be forwarded Is that the
name came directly from the Flathead
word 'im-i-sul-e-tuki" meaning "by or
near the place of fear or ambush" This
was the name given by the Indians to
the mouth OF the canyon directly east of
Missoula. 1t was SO called because of
the dangers encountered by the Flatheads
at that point by the Blackfeet, an enemy
tribe that opposed the Flathead migra-
ton into their valley. This name was
later translated by French-speaking IT.
oquois into Pore de Enfre," or Hellgate
in English. This was given to the small
settlement Of early days that was located
four miles west Of Missoula. Later On,
when more whites Invaded the country
and the first buildings were being erect
ed in Missoula. a contraction Of the In
dian word "im-i-sul-e-tuki' was given
to the new settlement and as Missoula
1t was known thereafter.
Red Lodge is another town whose name
was given it by the Indians. Red Lodge
was the name given by them to the post
office of the small settlement at the
mouth OF Red Lodge creek and which
died out during the hard winter Of 1886
When the postofice was moved to the
present site Of the town, the name was
retained by the settlers because of its
picturesqueness, and not being of any
particular appropriateness.
Chinook is we'll known as an indian
name. n its meaning, 1.-The warm wind, -
is also familiar to most Of us. Chinook,
Montana, was so named because warm
winds were 80 characteristic Of the eli
matte condition in the spring. The pio-
neers were we'll aware of this fact after a
few months residence in their camp on
the present townsite, and Chinook was
the name Of the town which grew up
there.
