He didn't have the proverbial sou markee. He began to make a hurried and accurate census of his friends on the train and found Dr.

Hamilton of the Bozeman agricultural college. Then his troubles were ended. It appears that Dr. Elrod overslept Sunday morning, his alarm clock showing the perversity of most of such instruments of torment, and dressed like EL fireman. Of course, he left his roll in the clothes he did not wear.

Dr. Elrod will give lectures in several eastern- Montana towns. besides attending the convention of the horticulturists.

Those fish are the greatest nuisance I ever saw.

Besides, pets should be affectionate; do those fish wag their tails when you come in and do they show by any signs that they like you?" The sporting editor was forced to admit that his fish do not bark with glee when he comes in, but he had one answer: "Well, anyway, they don't go out and get wet and 1 muddy and then come around and jump all over me." A soda-fountain man said yesterday that he believed the public taste for what are called "soft" COLD drinks is growing year DRINKS by year. He says that for many years he sold soda water to women children and that he wouldn't see a week and, in this store. Nowadays, he says, this is different and his adult-male trade is an important part of his business. "I heard a fellow say once that any drink that you can put your finger in is a 'soft' drink, but that isn't the kind I mean. My men customers drink lemonade, egg drinks.

"It has been miserably cold and bad everywhere I have been," said Mr. Letterman. "In New York and in Chicago the weather was fierce. E'elow zero many of the days and with that damp climate such a temperature means much more than it sounds.
