Shortage of Fuel
In Montana Causes
Extreme Suffering
Butte. Mont.. Nov. C. (V. F.)
Ranchers of Montana, particularly those
in the plains sections of the state, are
suffering extreme privations due to lank
of coal, according to reports brought to
Butte today by travelers.
Homesteaders, already impoverished
by the drought of last season, are said
to be in hard straights. It is reported
that many of them are tearing, down
barns, outhouses arid fence posts in their
desperate efforts to secure fuel.
Reports from various parts of the
state show no movement on the part
of the striking coal miners to return
to work.
The fuel shortage in Montana Is very
serious. The closing of schools in some
cities is threatened.

I was hardly able to get about, and
the pains would hurt me so bad at times
that It was all I could do to keep from
breaking down and crying I have
seen times when I couldn't turn over in
bed as the pains would be more than I
could bear and at other times if I sat
, down in a chair, somebody would have
, to .-help me before I could get up. My
stomach was in an awful condition,
and my appetite was so poor that. I
had to force myself to eat, and gas
formed bo bad that at times it almost
cut ny breath entirely off. I got so
thin and lost 80 much strength that I
looked almost like a walking skeleton
anil several times I felt so weak that
I almost fainted before I could sit down
or catch hold of something. I was so
ntrvous that I could not stand for
.the graphophone to play anywhere In
the house and there have been days
when I had a headache that would last
all day long. I could never Bleep good

"By the. time I had finished my first

feel almost like a new woman. Kvery
trace of the rheumatism has completely
disappeared and I never have a rheu

I am sleeping soundly every night I
don't know just how much I have gained
but it has been so much that my ' hus
