MONTGOMERY ELECT
In BEAVERHEAD co.

George A. Montgomery, candi-
date for State Senate on the dem
ocratic ticket in Beaverhead coun-
ty, overwhelmingly defeated his
republican opponent, w. G. Gil
bert, of the First National Bank
Gilbert Clique which has donin-
ated the politics and affairs Of
that county for over a quarter of
a century. The Montgomery vic
tory marks the beginning of the
end of that gang.
1t was J. H. Gilbert, the brother
OF w. G. Gilbert, the republican
candidate for senate, who was adj
mlnlstrator of the 100000 estate
Of VIM. Montgomery Big Hall
county rancher, which did not paw
the heirs a cent. It was another
brother of these Gilberts who was
the attorney for the Montgomery
estate. George Montgomery, who
was willed a fine ranch, when his
father died when he was nine
years old, which never came to
MN, was sent to the senate in
place of Gilbert to represent the
stockmen, ranchers, farmers and
small business men and workers.
The bankers lost a powerful
henchman in the defeat of Gilbert.
The Producers News received

ney for the Montgomerys in their

QUESTIONS and ANSWERS
 DentOr Is Right

My dentist said he has never heard of clamps being made to stop tongue sucking. My seven year old son is losing his teeth. The two lower front teeth protrude outward caused by pushing his tongue a. gainst them when he sucks 1t . Mrs. P. B.
 Answer-The dentor has nothing on me. I have never heard of such appliance either. But dentist should install suitable appliance to straighten the teeth. The ton- gue-sucking, as you call 1t, is more likely the effect than the cause of the irregularity of the teeth. If your dentor does not do such work he can refer you to one who does-the work is called orthodontia, straigh- ening irregularities of the teeth.

 It is harmful to the stomach or the rest of the body to drink 3 quart of milk each meal? like milk wit hthe rest of my food. I am 20 year old, 66h inches tall.
 Answer-No. On the contrary, 1t is healthful, especially if it is certi- fled milk, or raw milk from tuber- culin tested COWS, or ordinary milk which you have boiled one minute. Copyright 1886, John F. Dille Co0
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-04-18

My dear troubled friend: In the first place I am sorry that it takes such courage" to confide your problems to me. Now that you have done so, want to assure you that 1t does not seem small to me nor to anyone who has ever known the agony and suspense of unrequited love. The sudden change in your girl friends attitude toward you may or may not be due to a change of heart. You see, a girls parents have great influence in determin- ing her future. Particularly if the daughter is dutiful and gentle by nature. During the years of your unemployment, you may have seem- ed improvident. There is nothing so discouraging to ambitious parents than to see daughter eating her heart out for a man who cannot provide for her. No doubt you lost ground in her affections at that time, through the advice and warn- ing of her parents. But stolen fruits being sweetest to many, the secret meetings with you, just teemed with romance and danger, which of course led her to express her love for you honestly and without re- serve. There are several ways to explain her altered attitude now. l fear it is due to the fact that she feels sure of you. Unfortunately in most love affairs, 1t is seldom that the two hearts love with the same ardor; or should I say 1t is seldom that each expresses love in the same way. Suppose you try an indifferent attitude toward her for a change. do not suggest however, to go to extremes. But let her wait for the usual words of devotion, which pour from your lips, the moment you are with her. Initiate her attitude, and see what happens. If she loves you deeply, she will notice the change and she will be frightened. But to get down to cases, my dear boy; if you are of an affectionate dis position, and she is cool by nature, then yau are face to face with a losing battle for future happiness. l will be blunt, but nine out of every ten unhappy marriages are caused by this unbalanced degree of love and expressions of love. You had better find out definitely right now where you stand in her affections. You think at this time that there is no other girl in the world for you; but you are mistaken. If you have both made a mistake, break off, no matter how 1t hurts at first you will be happier in the long run However, I believe that your sweet heart is just little undecided at present, between listening to her parents, and the fickleness of her heart. Don't be too ardent, and see what happens.

 For several years I was so mis erable I could hardly do my own work

 had always believed that the menopause made no difference to health. So, when the doctor told me 1t was "just my age" I didn't believe it and when to another doctor.
 (Sensible woman. If 1t were "just your age" every woman would suffer in health at the age of forty-eight years os 50. The truth is that only a minority of women experience any disturb ance of health at that age. So this old fogy doctor who told the lday it was "just her age" did not deserve public confidence. The trouble is that there are too many of his ilk in the medical profession).
 I went to another who said the same thing. I still didn't believe 1t, and went to a third doctor and he gave me ovarian sub stance and immediately my (sym- ptoms which anybody might no- tice when out of sorts) left. Once more enjoyed doing my work.
 This doctor told me he had giv- en 1t to many women suffering as was. Why didn't the other doc- tors I consulted prescribe this and save me years of misery? It is pitiful the number Of women who are dragging around just trying to live through five or six years, which should be their best years.
 wish that all women might have the relief that I have had. Could you not add this to your curriculum?
 The doctor told me that when the ovaries ceased functioning normally the system is just as much uset as when any of the other glands fails to function.

I take the ovarian substance in (such and such form) though 1t is supposed to be more effective
 if administered hypodermically."
 do not know, and I am sure the lay reader will not understand, just what the doctor meant when he spoke of the normal cessation of ovarian function. For there are two functions concerned, primarily the giving of fan ovum or female parent cell monthly from the age of twelve to the age of fifty years, more or less, and secondarily the pouring into the blood of 8 hor- none or internal secretion which influences the entire organism Of the woman in many ways, though we have much yet to learn about this part of the ovarian function.
 Such hormone treatment as the correspondent received is sometimes quite happy in its effect, particular ly in cases where hot flashes cause much distress. Again it proves dis appointing. Perhaps this lack of uniformity in action is due to our inadequate knowledge of the hor- none and the proper way to pre- pare 1t for medicinal use. The me- dicine is prepared from the ovaries of healthy young COWS, sheep or pigs. It may be that the medicinal value depends on the age and con- dition of the animal an dthe time of the month or season when the animal is slaughtered.
 Normally women suffer no ill health or distress of any kind from menopause. That's why do not harp on the subject here. have a little monograph on Change of Life" which I am glad to send to any woman who asks for it and in- closes 8 stamped envelope bearing her address.

Your Children
By Olive Roberts Barton

Orderliness may become such an obsesSlon with a woman that 1t will ruin not only her husbands and children'S lives, but her own. When she runs to plump up every cushion on which small boy or girl has set, to pick up the scattered pages of the newspaper her husband is read ing, to replace the flowers that someone has moved two inches to the right on the writing desk, well, 1t is time that she took an inventory of the comforts of her home.
 Homes are made to be lived in. Bodies and sou1s find their relax ation in the privacy of four shell tering walls which shut them in from the hurts and fears and in- differences of a troublesome world. If a man can't do as he pleases with his pipe and books, in his own living room, vaguely he will wonder why he is deprived of peace. If child can't build tower of blocks in his play room, he will wonder why he has a play room.
 Pleasure as Furnishing Guide
 If there is no paint of the toys, no dissected engine, no one-eyed doll in the nursery, you may know that the children are not enjoying that room. They aren't free to do as they please. A room of sturdy, bright comfort where any, body may play with anything and everything all the time, gives far more pleasure than beautiful, deli- cate room where only one or two ex- pensive toys may be touched at once. The sturdy room may cost only 8 fraction of the luxurious one, but it brings satisfaction, ten times over and above that of the expen- sive one.
 After all, it is the spirit that permeates a home that is al impor- tant. The freedom to laugh, read, play, eat-yes, even be little sorry -as you pleasel
 No one likes a filtered house. But houses that are lived in and enjoyed need not be filtered. Always the toys and papers can be put away when the games or reading are done. Fundamentally the order of the house is not broken. After all, why should we have possessions if we can not enjoy them? It isn't human nature for a little boy not to break an engine, now and then, to see what makes 1t go when 1t is wound up. It isn't natural for a small girl not to make at least one attempt to see if her rag doll is stuffed with sawdust or cotton.
 Like Empty Shrines
 Homes that are too decorative be- come the idols of their mistresses hearts. They may turn into empty shrines at which no one warns. Children, growing older, will turn to somebody else's home where free- dom and comfort sit by the hearth.
 The same rule applies to clothing. If a child is dressed too well to en- joy himself, he can't have a good time. He would much prefer a sim pie pair of trousers and 8 rough and tumble play shirt. Looking like Little Lord Fauntelroy, so his mother can point him out to her guests, brings no satisfaction to him. Clothes, books, homes, hearts are made to bs usedl Comfort should come first in the list of attributes that are found under 8 protecting roof where people live together.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-04-18

amounts, if one subsists largely on the meat, potatoes, vegetables, and bread of previous generation.
 Dietary authorities recommend that at least half of the total intake of food consist of the protective foods. They suggest that at least as much money be spent for milk, cream, and cheese as for meats, fish, and poultry; and at least half as much be spent for fruits and vege- tables as for meats of all kinds.
 The essentials of well-balanced diet are those which provide, in the words of an authority, Two or more liberal servings of fruits each day; two or more servings of vegetables daily, of which one should be a green or yellow vegetable, if practic- able; about a quart of milk 8 day in some form, including, if desired, such equivalents as canned milk, milk powder, cheese, and cream, and an average of four or five eggs a week, more or less, depending on how well eggs agree, and their price,"
 This, however, is a rigid list and anyone with imagination may vary 1t to make a greater appeal to the appetite.
 The information in this series isn't scientists final word on nutri- ton and diet. Those who have been following the tremendous advances of the last g years know that we are only on the threshold of what we ultimately will be able to learn on this subject.
 In addition to the research of sci- entists in laboratories of the great universities and schools of nutri- tion, manufacturers of food prod ucts have begun to realize that foods constitute the most important item in the American budget. All the great food industries have estab- lished laboratories in which research goes on constantly to determine how foods may be improved from the point of view of value in the diet and appeal to the appetite.
 In the application of the newer dietary knowledge to the control of disease. physicians also are begin- ging to learn much that is new and significant. Newly discovered facts have changed our viewpoint regard ing the relationship of certain die- tary deficiencies to various diseases of some organs. to the breaking down of bones and of teeth, to the occurrence of such conditions as pellagra. neuritis. scurvy. and simi- lar deficiency diseases.
 Some specialists, even, are pre- pared to Bay that we may eventu- ally be able to improve the human mind by modifying the diet.
 AS c result of our new knowledge,

 This is the last of the series of articles on diet which I have written for about the last four months. The knowledge obtained from these ar- ticles should enable you to avoid de- ficiencies in your diet and obtain from your food the maximum bene- fits for health and for growth.
 There is a great difference be- tween just living satisfactorily, and having the exuberant, buoyant feel ing that comes with perfect condi- ton of tissues and excellent nutri- ton.
 Perhaps the most significant of all information offered in this series of articles is that concerning the pro- tective foods, such as milk, fruits, vegetables, eggs, cod liver oil, liver, lambs kidneys, and similar sub stances, which are essential in pro- yiding the diet with necessary vita mins and mineral salts.
