Friday, February 2, 1917 PORTLAND CEMENT. Portland cement manufacture is aow established in South Wales on a large scale. In the extensive area from Penarth where the new fac- tories. have been constructed, west- ward, beyond Aberthaw, cement - making materials of such nature and N o . 5. pality are found that the product from the district has already estab- lished for itself a reputation to be envied. The position of Great Brit, sin in the markets for Portland ce- ment is illustrated by the figures for the year 1913, when the largest pro- rections awing countries were Great Britain above with 3,000,000 tons, Germany with lored —5,000,000 tons ; and the United fy States of America with nearly 15,- 600,000 tons. NOT JUST WHAT HE WANTED Soldier Traveling In Hot Country Might Have Dispensed With Woolen Comforters Sent Him. The darkest tragedy must have its comic relief. The recent Indian troop train disaster, when a score of men died and 200 were taken to hos- pital through,being sent a thousand miles acrosa the Sind desert without ice or aerated water, was no excep- tion. A relative of one of the men who went through the terrible ordeal, sending home word of his own safety, ter he is green. Their year begins described how he arrived at Rawal founded upon the belief that the sun Pindi, in the last stages of heat -ex- haustion, and fotind a parcel await- ing him. \Practically desiccated,\ he wrote, \I had scarcely the energy to cut the string, but curiosity triumphed even over my desire for bed, the punkah, and ice water—oh, unlimited ice wa- l A pal got up from full length on the -floor and crawled across to come and see. It might be pineapple or something! . It wasn't. It was those nice, warm woolen comforters you sent to me at Bulford, whence they had been forwarded, and for which many, many thanks. Perhaps some day I may be sent to Russia.\ TEWA INDIAN NEW YEAR'S DAY People Have Belief to Which They Have Not Been Able to Make Others Adhere To.

Our adverting reaches into every state in the Union and we are flooded with the requests for information from Men who HAVE THE MONEY looking for a-s'afe investmens. All eyes are turned to Montana. Everything in- dicates a banner year. It is to your benefit to list your land early. First come, first served. Get in on the ground floor. Just let us know that you want to sell and we will do the rest. Land and Livestock Company JUST STUMBLED ONTO IT. Director (apologetically) — I meant to tell about that hole in the ground, Jim. Screen Actor (climbing`out)--No raatter; I found it GOOD PLACE. \In the magazines sent to the hos- pital I found some with a lot of so- 2iety beauty cuts.\ \Took 'em to the right place to have the cuts dressed.\ EMPEROR HAD TO MAKE WAY Royal Hungarian Mall Cart Had Preto dance Even Over Carriage of Ruler of Austrla-Hungary. A good story is being retold about . the late emperor of Austria. Arrayed in the ordinary garb of an Alpine hunter—dark green fustian jacket and short breeches, gray woolen knit- ted stockings turned down below the knees,. thick -soled, nailed shootiiig boots, and a soft gray felt hat orna- mented with blackcock feathers and a chamois \beard\—Francis Joseph often spent hours unrecognized in ihe forest or on the mountainside. One day, while driving from one shooting -box to another, he met the mail cart, the driver of which was lustily blowing his horn in order to clear the road. \Get out of the way!\ shouted he as he came up to the emperor's trap. \Why not get out of the way your- self, and let us pass?\ rejoined his majeety. \Because answered the man, \the royal Hungarian mail cart gives place neither to man nor the de , ,11!\ \You are right,\ said the emperor - king, and tossed him a cigar. BEST PLACE OF RETIREMENT One's Own Soul Superior to All Other Situations to Man of Well - Ordered Mind. Men seek out retreats for them- selves, cottages in the Country, lone- ly seashores and mountains. Thou, too, art disposed to hanker greatly after such things; and yet all this is the very commonest stupidity; for it is in thy power, whenever thou wilt, to retire into thyself; and nowhere is there any place whereto a man may retire quieter and more free from politics than his own - soul; above all, if he have within him thoughts such as he need only egard attentively to be at perfect efts ; and that ease is nothing else tha a well - ordered mind. Constantly then use 1this retreat, and renew th self there- in; and be thy princip s brief and elementary, which, as soon as ever !thou -recur to them, ill suffice to wash thy soul entir ly clean, and send thee back with At vexation to whatsoe'er awaiteth thee.—Mareus Aurelitdi. ART AND NATURE. \Nature always surpasses art.\ \I can't see it that way,\ replied the man who wears arctic overshoes. \The artificial snow they use OD Christmas treea is vastly preNrable to the real kind.\ MARK THE STREETS. The new guile of the Boy Scouts of finding hidden objects by follow. ing written directions is developing the fact that many cities in the Unit, ed States are careless about putting signs at corners. The Boy Scouts of Kansas City recently hiked 17 blocks before finding a sign telling the name of the street on which they were traveling. WITH RESTRICTION& \I say, officer, can one speed on th i ' s `St iv e, evi s ' o a r Y , r but ye can't race un- less ye go at a walk.\ QUITE ACCOMMODATING.

Lysander, a New York state farm- hand, was telling his troubles to a neighbor, and among other things said that the wife of the farmer who employed him was \too darned close for any use.\ • \This very morning,\ said he, \she said to me: 'Lysander, do you know how many pancakes you have et this mornin'?' I said, 'No, ma'am,I ain't had no occasion to count 'em.\Well she says, 'that last one was the twen- ty-sixth.'
