Miss Haste, who is a resident of Billings, wrote of a woman who lived between lulls. and never saw anyone, or knew any greater excitement than to witness the daily pass age of the coach by the ranch, er an oc casionai wagon rumbling along the road. The result of this monotonous existenee.it..,, as 1 recall It was. the woman lost her mind Such instances have not been tare in Ä îid'KSûtîTti".

In pre-prohibition days, their vegetables sold, like the cowboys they often felt en titled to go on a spree, perhaps indulged only semi-annually, and before they were quite sober, went home to cheer up their families, and report an empty purse. When a pioneer of tirent Palls, I hav. seen more than one team pass our preemp tlon house, going eastward, the horses' slowly taking tbelr way homeward, with the driver prone on the bottom ■' th wagon, sleeping eiT his intoxication. Women were deprived of this glorious privilege They just followed the endless treadmill of domestic duties until the brain some-. times gave way. and they at length found varletv and companionship in a lunatic asylum. Let it be remembered, however, that in those days even for men there was almost no healthy entertainment furnished to transient visitors by the towns. There were no theaters; no movies; no -hnrch or Y. M. C. A. amusements to brighten their stay. No wonder they sought the attrae tions of the saloons! It is not for us to jadjre them. t Women an- not only leading Isolated lives In the country, in Montana and other states—they are frequently cut off from their kind In the large cities, where people live side hy side, even under the same roof, yet are «t rangers to one another.

A Word With the Old Folks Elderly People Are learning Importance of Qood Elimination. I N the later years of life there is apt to be, a slowing up of the bodily functions. Good elimination, however, is just as essential to the - old as to the young. Many old folks have learned the value of Doan's Pills when a stimulant diuretic to the kidneys is required. Scanty or burning passages of kidney secre tions are often signs of improper kid ney function. In most every com munity are scores of users and en dorsers who acclaim the merit of Doan's.

The University team favored the affirmative, with what re sult we are not Informed. Long before women were permitted to gain a higher education, they generally were aide to maintain the Jnstice of their own opinions, as many a man could testify.

Mr. Caudle will "Forewarned is fore „J-med " take uotice ' A The only woman member of the assembly, Mrs. Lucy A. Curran, of Roosevelt county, has been made head of the committee on libraries, and is on six other committees. Mrs. Curran having espoused a measure, presenting the best reasons why it should be passed, a member of the house gal lantly suggested as an act of courtesy, the measure should receive the unanimous vote of the house. His action was doubtless well Intended: but if laws are to be passed through courtesy, and not because of their merit, no more women should be elected to our legislative bodies, or the male mem bers be instructed in regard to their duties. Deference shown to women at some times, and in some places, Is defensible; but the time and the place is not when and where laws are made. Any measure proposed by a woman legislator should 1« voted down if It is not a good one, the same as If pro posed by a man.

She also recom mends orange Juice every day. , V. Tissue Building Foods ''Very often," says Dr. Daniels, "the meat serving for father will be large, aud the serving for children small. This Is not al wsys right. Children are growing new tts sue rapidly and need a higher proportion of protein than do mature people. These little folks should have 1 gram of tissue building foods for each pound of weight, a day. If a child weighs sixty pounds, ho should have every day sixty grams of pro-* teln food." The ordinary protein foods are meat, eggs, milk and cheese. An average serving of meat contains 6 to 10 grams protein. An egg contains 5 grams, a quart grams of butterfat, and one of milk .HO rams. Many children's diets ids follows in the feeding of children at the Iowa State hospital, and which sh« has found produces healthy children, recommends these to homemakers : U) One quart of milk a day; (2) one fKg a day; (8) one serving of meat a day * n proportion to sree of child; (4) three vegetables a day green leafy vegetable« besides potatoes; (5) three servings of fruit. on ® at least, raw; (6) one cereal food a t a meal such as rice, potato, bread, maca r0 nl pi it if'these foods are Included each day, yon may serve whatever else you wish, and children will get necessary calories. Dr. Daniels recommends this diet for grown ups as well as for children. The only dlf fereuce need lie in the form and the slae of the portions, est for us until we have made In It a deposit of service. are short on tissue building material.
