The Muskogee Cimeter. Vol 8 From Oklahoma Post, Jan. 19, 1907. BAKER OF WEWOKA. WITH AN OATH HASKELL TELLS HIM TO SIT DOWN. Report Baker So Unpopular Because of Printing Fight He Must Work Negatively to Win. Guthrie, Okla., Jan. 18.—What the governor of North Carolina said to the governor of South Carolina sinks into insignificance beside what Haskell of Muskogee said to Baker of Wewoka in the Democratic caucus Tuesday night. Baker had spoken at length, severely criticising Haskell in particular and the other delegates in general for their refusal to let the people locate their county seats. Near the end of the speech Haskell arose and in a voice full of weariness said: "Oh, G—D—it. Baker, shut up, sit down. You're tiresome." Baker looked at Haskell and seeing a look of disgust on his face, sat down, while the members of the caucus laughed. Many other hot speeches were made in the caucus, and members of the organization are telling a story today that has wide circulation though not generally credited, that they worked a clever scheme to secure favorable action by the caucus on the county seat report. They say that Baker favored the report from the start, but that they persuaded him to make a speech against it, believing his unpopularity among many of the delegates engendered by his printing fight, wauld have the effect of killing the opposition. In support of this story they point to the fact that before Baker's speech a motion to adjourn the caucus failed only on a tie vote, while after Baker's speeche a motion to stand by the committee report, with-jority. Harvey Underwood enarged with murder was found not guilty by a jury. It was another confirmation of the unwritten law that a man who breaks up a family should die. The mention of Haskell for the United States senate, after the constitutional experience the people have had, reminds us of the Illinois farmer, who one day received a note from a Chicago friend which read as follows: "My dear John, the small pox is epiedmic in this part of the iety, and for safety, I have taken advantage of one of your many kind invitations and sent my two sons down to you. In two weeks the farmer sent a note to the city friends which read: "I herewith return your boys: please send me the smallpox."—Oklahoma State Capital, Jan. 19, 1907.

Twine, of Muskogee being requested by the citizens of Rentiesville, was with us on last Monday night and lectured to us upon the advantages of an incorporated town. The vast audience that greeted him at the A. M. E. church was an evidence of his popularity in our thriving little city. His talk was greatly enjoyed by all present. After leaving the church the distinguished guest retired to Cooksie's commodious hall where a banquet had been prepared. The ladies of Rentiesville spared no pains in making it a success. Delicacies of the season were daintily served. Toasts were offered by Rev. N. A. Robinson, Messrs, N. L. Paul, G. W. Cooksie, D. C. Martin and our honored guest. Rev. C. F. Moore was toastmaster.

As a result from a well attended townsite meeting of last week for the purpose of taking steps toward incorporating the town, it was flanlly decided to call in Hon. W. H. Twine, of Muskogee, as a legal advisor to meet in session Monday night, 21st inst. At an early hour Monday night the A. M. E. church was crowded to listen to W. H. Twine. While this meeting was in session the ladies of the town, assisted by three gentlemen, a royal banquet was spread and 72 ladies and gentlemen, in response to as many invitations, joined in the festivities of the evening. Rev. C. F. Moore, the toastmaster, opened up with a nice little address, was followed by Robinson, Cooksey, Martin, Paul and Bowman. Hon. W. H. Twine responded in a short but most eloquent and able address. Mrs. N. L. Paul, supported by five pretty misses, served the dainties and all went pleasant as a marriage bell. Behind the scene and the prime promoters were Mrs. Brinson, Mrs. Moore, Mrs. Cooksey, Miss Bryan, and Mrs. Johnson. REPORTER. THE ANGEL CHILD'S LESSON. Didn't Result as the Penurious Parent Had Hoped, but the A. C. Had Fun. The penurious parent had been instructing the angel child in the art of saving. The angel child had listened dutifully, and when the P. P. presented it with a patent savings bank the A. C. agreed to put all the nickels he got into the bank. At the end of the week of persistent begging from the other members of the family the A. C. gazed into the patent bank and discovered that he had $4.90. "Oh, papa!" said the A. C., its dimpled physiognomy erupted with smiles, "I need only two more nickels to have the required $5. Have I not been a good boy to not spend them one by one as I used to do?" "You have, my child," replied the P. P. proudly, "and to show you that the reward of economy is a comfortable bank account, I will now give you the money to fill your bank. It can then be opened and your money placed in the big bank down town." Saying which he handed the A. C. two nickels and the little one danced away happy. "This only goes to show," said the P. P. to his yoke mate, "that the inculcation of right ideas cannot begin too soon with children. It is merely the forerunner of a great and glorious career for our child; and I feel that he will look back upon this moment in his after years, and remember with pride the fact that I taught him the first principles of good citizenship." Having gotten which sentiment out of his system, the P. P. fell to perusing the financial gossip of the Evening Exciter. And meanwhile the angel child, having pushed the two coins into the bank, gave it the proper twist and dumped the contents into his hat. Then he proceeded to sneak around the corner, gather up ten or 15 of his alley acquaintances, and blow them off to soda, ice cream and cubeb cigarettes at the nearest confectionery, returning home with an empty bank but a full stomach. Moral: You can't teach a young dog old tricks.—Judge. Anecdotes of Dan O'Connell. There are a good many interesting stories told of the famous Daniel O'Connell. Once he was defending a prisoner indicted for murder. The principal witness against the defendant swore that the prisoner's hat had been found near the place of the murder. The hat was then produced in court, and the witness swore positively that it was the same one that was found, and that it belonged to the prisoner. "By virtue of your oath, are you positive that this is the same hat?" "Yes." "Did you examine it carefully before you swore that it was the prisoner's?" "Yes." "Now, let me see," said O'Connell, as he took up the hat and began carefully to examine the inside of it. He paused with a curious expression on his face, and then spelled aloud, "J-a-m-c-s. Now, do you mean to say that that name was in the hat when you found it?" he asked, turning to the witness. "I do." "Did you see it there?" "I did." "And this is the same hat?" "Yes." "Now, my lord," said the lawyer, turning to the judge, "there's an end to this case. There is no name whatever within this hat." The prisoner was instantly acquitted.—The Sunday Magazine.

How many women do you know who are perfectly well and strong? The cause may be easily traced to some feminine derangement which manifests itself in depression of spirits, reluctance to go anywhere or do anything, backache, dragging sensations, flatulency, nervousness, and sleeplessness. These symptoms are but warnings that there is danger ahead, and unless heeded, a life of suffering or a serious operation is the inevitable result. The best remedy for all these symptoms is FARMS THAT GROW "NO.1 HARD" WHEAT (Sixty-three Pounds to the Bushel).

What Will Prove the Most Economical in Feeding the Cow. The most economical feeds that I have been able to find for feeding dairy cows include corn, rye, peas, bran, clover hay and corn stover, writes a farmer in Farm and Home. The quantity will depend upon the size of the cow and should vary according to the amount of milk produced. For the average cow, weighing around 1,000 pounds, and giving from two and one-half to three gallons milk per day, I find the following to be about the right amount for a dairy ration: Four pounds corn, three-fourths pound bran, 10-15 pound cow peas, 5-10 pound clover hay and all the corn stover that they will eat. Whenver I do not have the cow peas, I increase the amount of clover and add one to one and one-half-pounds cottonseed meal. I think cow peas one of the best and most economical feeds for dairy cows that we have. The cows like them better than any other dry feed, and they are rich in protein. I always try to raise enough peas to feed my cows a small amount during the winter. The only feeds I buy are bran and cottonseed meal. My cows are fed in stalls and mangers similar to the Board's dairy stall, which is very satisfactory. In feeding, I think it best to be regular both as to quantity and time of feeding. Any increase or lessening of feed should be done gradually. TUBER PIT. How Potatoes May Me Buried and Kept in Good Condition. We show herewith a plan for the winter storage of potatoes, suggested by a correspondent of the Prairie Farmer. Two layers of earth are used with the straw, as shown at A, Method of Burying Potatoes. in between. This, the correspondent says, has the tendency of forming an air space and tends to retain the heat better. The layer of straw should be heavy enough so that when the last layer of earth is put on that the straw will form a four or five-inch thickness. If desired, coarse manure can be piled on top after the first freeze comes early in the winter. Not the least among the difficulties that beset the trucker, is that of securing reliable and efficient help. Not only is the supply of help short, but the wage rate is increasing. Worst of all, the laborers grow less and less reliable and efficient. The better class of men, attracted by higher wages and shorter hours, are leaving the farm and finding employment elsewhere. Agriculture in Algeria. The bureau of plant industry has issued bulletin 80, devoted to agriculture in Algeria. A summary of the bulletin by the agriculture department says that the climate of Algeria is comparable to that of California. The vine is the greatest single source of wealth. The average annual product of the vineyards is valued at $5,000,000. The principal orchard fruits are olives, oranges, lemons, figs and dates. The olive stands first in commercial importance. The principal field crops are wheat and barley. Indian corn and sorgum are also grown. The one-cow dairy arrived long ago, and a mighty handy institution it is. The one-cow silo has not yet reached the one-cow dairy, but it is on the way. Washington a Shingie State. The state of Washington produced 10,500,000,000 shingles in 1906 fiscal year, or 68 $ \frac{1}{2} $ per cent of the total output of the United States. Washington has 459 mills, with a daily output of 47,940,000, or 18 per cent more than in 1905. In no other other state does the yearly output approximate 1,000,000,000. The extraordinary popularity of fine white goods this summer makes the choice of Starch a matter of great importance. Defiance Starch, being free from all injurious chemicals, is the only one which is safe to use on fine fabrics. Its great strength as a stiffener makes half the usual quantity of Starch necessary, with the result of perfect finish, equal to that when the goods were new. SAID WOMEN MARRIED HIM. Remarkable Excuse Put Forward by French Bigamist. At Versailles, France, recently a baker was tried on a charge of polygamy, having married five women, who are living and undivorced. The pentagamist's defense was that he had not married the women; they had married him. When they proposed he had not the courage to say no. Neither money nor love, he said, had prompted his nuptials; he was the victim of the stronger wills of his successive spouses. Of the five wives three appeared as witnesses, but did not prosecute, saying that their common husband was a toper of whom they were glad to get rid. He was acquitted—on what ground does not appear. As all the years in which the multiplex husband took wives were leap years except 1881, in which it would seem that in four out of the five cases the women had the right to propose. But the man had the right, even in the leap years, to decline, and it was up to him at least to explain to his fair suitors that he was engaged. To establish the principle that a man is not responsible for the number of his wives unless he himself does the courting, would be plainly against public policy. If "Barkis is willin'," that at once puts all the responsibility on him, no matter who managed the preliminaries. WHITE BREAD Makes Trouble for People with Weak Intestinal Digestion. A lady in a Wis. town employed a physician who instructed her not to eat white bread for two years. She tells the details of her sickness and she certainly was a sick woman. "In the year 1887 I gave out from overwork, and until 1901 I remained an invalid in bed a great part of the time. Had different doctors but nothing seemed to help. I suffered from cerebro-spinal congestion, female trouble and serious stomach and bowel trouble. My husband called a new doctor and after having gone without any food for 10 days the doctor ordered Grape-Nuts for me. I could eat the new food from the very first mouthful. The doctor kept me on Grape-Nuts and the only medicine was a little glycerine to heal the alimentary canal. "When I was up again doctor told me to eat Grape-Nuts twice a day and no white bread for two years. I got well in good time and have gained in strength so I can do my own work again. "My brain has been helped so much, and I know that the Grape-Nuts food did this, too. I found I had been made ill because I was not fed right, that is I did not properly digest white bread and some other food I tried to live on. "I have never been without GrapeNuts food since and eat it every day. You may publish this letter if you like so it will help someone else." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

Mrs. Mary Wagner, of 1367 Kossuth avenue, Bridgeport, Conn., says: "I was so weakened and generally run down with kidney disease that for a long time I could not do my work and was five weeks in bed. There was continual bearing down pain, terrible backaches, headaches and A. B. at times dizzy spells when everything was a blur before me. The passages of the kidney secretions were irregular and painful, and there was considerable sediment and odor. I don't know what I would have done but for Doan's Kidney Pills.

BRING GOOD HEALTH Dr. William' Pink Pills, Used After the Grip, Arrest Fatal Decline and Rebuild the System. Any bodily weakness caused by a deficiency in the blood can be cured by the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills because these pills actually make new blood. After attacks of the grip the blood is generally run down and the patient continues to decline. "About three years ago," says Mrs. Jennie Cowan, of 718 N. Henry Street, West Bay City, Mich., "I caught a severe cold, which ran into the grip. I was confined to my bed for two weeks. At the end of that time I was able to be about, but was completely run down. I was so weak I could hardly stand, my cheeks had no color and I felt faint. My heart would flutter and it was difficult for me to breathe at times. Neuralgia settled in the back of my head and stomach and I suffered from rheumatism in my shoulders. "I had the care of the best doctor in town but became no better until a friend told me one day how she had been cured by Dr. Williars' Pink Pills and I decided to try them. I soon felt better and continued using them until I was entirely cured. They built me up again to perfect health and I use them now whenever I feel at all sick and they always help me." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are invaluable in such cases, as well as in other blood diseases, because they not only drive off the germs of the disease but build up the system. The pills have cured anaemia, rheumatism, after-effects of fevers, neuralgia and many other severe disorders.

We would not give three whoops in the plutorian regions for the cusses who have been as false as hell to the Republican party who now beg for a place on the state or county ticket. The worst Democrat who ever breathed is a sigrt better than any of these hide bound moss-backed cusses who take the livery of heaven to serve the devil in and who claim to be Republicans. The unreconstructed rebels who live in the territory and their copperhead allies from the old border slave states are doing their very best to break out of the union and their cry is negro domination and D—— the negro. Poor damphools, they know not what they say or do. The hellhounds at Guthrie are determined to give us Jim Crow cars in so far as they are able, but of course it don't matter what they do in trat line, the loyal negroes of Oklahoma will be able to defeat their hellish designs. Watch and see. We only hope that Old Gordon, of the Searchlight fame, and others will try to redeem themselves in the future. Bailey won (the election for senator) in Texas. Of course, the devil can always win in hell. Foraker won out in his brave and firm stand for truth, justice and right. Even Tillman voted right, which proves that even some good can come out of hell. Only three Republicans voted against the resolution and two Democrats for it. Thanks to the U. S. court and the officers at this place, the gamblers, thieves, thugs and whisky peddlers are growing beautifully less. On last Friday night Marshal Bennett and District Attorney Leekley raided the gambling hell in the rear part of the Jones building and burned the furniture. It was not necessary to hunt evidence further, they found it. The Republicans can if they will carry the new state, but they must give a "square deal" to all men or there will be "nothing doing." Such fellows as Archer, formerly of Muskogee, are as vicious as any rebel that ever came over the pike. We would rather trust Tillman or any other Democrat than such copperheaded pretended Republicans as Archer and his ilk. "Curses, like chickens, will come home to roost." We are informed that the black gamblers, their aiders and abettors, have been cussing us and making threats to "put us off the watch." We are and always have been opposed to these thugs and we are willing to take their curses but should they attempt to carry out the threats then the chickens will come home to roost. Martin, Jr., was convicted in the U. S. court Tuesday for theft of the Creek roll. There are several others under indictment for the same offense. Dunleavy and several others may face a jury for the offense of larceny. All are high class white men and the court is treating all alike. "No difference in the fare." If the Saviour of mankind should come to Oklahoma today and go before the constitutional convention and the color of his cuticle should show the dark tinge of one who had lived in the tropics, the cusses would at once crucify him anew and Alfalfa Bill wold purovide thecrown of thorns. Some of the would-be Republican white leaders say we can't trust the negroes. Trust the negroes for what? They don't ask any one to trust them and they won't trust the treacherous, truculent lily whites who always howl the negro sold out in order to hide their own—meanness. It's just such Republicans that can cause defeat to the party. cause the party to go to defeat Last week a negro woman and a white man robbed a white man in this city.

New York BALD-HEADED BRIDEGROOMS They Are Fine Citizens and It Is No Wonder the Girls Like An esteemed contemporary has opened the columns to a discussion of the question "Why do cultivated and refined women marry child-headed men?" and men with and without light seem to be considerably agitated over it. Even women are joining in the discussion, and there are as many explanations as there are correspondents. None of them, however, explains, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. It is the form of the question evidently that confuses. It presumes too much and the presumption is accepted as established by the wrongly they do not question the premise. Educated and refined women do not as a rule marry half-headed men, though they do sometimes, when they cannot catch them earlier. The question deals with particulars as generals. It should be: "Why do women marry men?" And the answer to this, if we do not confine the issue by the citation of examples, of which we remark: "What one earth did she gee in him?" is simple. Women marry men to get husbands. Men marry women to get wives. But, mean, young, old, hirsute and bald, an marry for the same reason. "It is not good for man to live alone." Anyway, why should the bald head be brought into the limelight in this spectacular way? Is it not conspicuous enough as it is to attract much undesired attention without forcing the issue? Bald-headed men are worthy citizens. They must be, for they are always under inspection. A bald head is a light that cannot be hid under a bushel, it may not conceal itself. If it frolics somewhat gayly, the world says: "Behold you shameless one!" A bald head must perforce seek virtuous ways. There are few or no bald-headed villains. They are scarce as fat beggars. Let not the finger of scorn be point- l at the bald head for that he pur- ries a "refined and educated woman." It is to his credit. The bald head sets an example that the hirsutely rich might emulate with profit. The bald head is the symbol of lofty cit- hip and "chines" like a good head in a naughty world. Trailing the Missing Link. Scientists are again on the trail of the "missing tink." Two years ago certain marks were found on a block of sandstone near Warranambool, in Australia, which were thought to be the imprints of the footsteps of a prehistoric man. At the time this idea was ridiculed, but a plaster cast was sent to Germany, and the inevitable German savant went out to investigate the matter. He now reports that in his opinion they were genuine human imprints, and this, taken in conjunction with the extraordinary human skulls to be seen in the Warransambool museum, is supposed to show that a link between humanity and the ape has been discovered.—Chicago Record-herald.

Ter. JONES BUILDING (IN THE REAR) ON FIRST FLOOR Muskogee Cimeter. W. H. TWINE, Editor IND. TER. Europe is giving King Leopold the merry hoot for his Congo interview. This, says the Pittsburg Gazette, is a gentle way of calling him a fighting name. Ibsen's suggestion that all the physicians should use politicians for "kill or cure" experiments, remarks the New York Herald, isn't so dreadful after you think it over. Marie Corelli, who has been pitching into women, is deservedly squelched. One of the scolded sex has referred to her as "the Corelli person." So there, now. Caoutchouc was introduced to Europe by M. De la Condamine on his return from Peru in 1736. "It is," said its discoverer, "a most singular resin, as much by the use to which it is devoted as by its nature, which is a problem to our most expert chemists." During his school career the kaiser was a model of the studious German youth. He took his place as an ordinary pupil in the public school at Cassel, and studied and played with the other scholars. At the final examination he was, indeed, only tenth in the list; but then he was two years younger than his companions, and was rightly considered to have done so well that his tutor was immediately decorated. In a recent report of the bureau of navigation it is shown that 93 per cent. of the enlisted men in the navy are native-born Americans, and that during the year 43 per cent. of the men qualified for reenlistment did reenlist. It is highly desirable that the man behind the gun be a man of experience, and it is best that the man who may be called upon to fight should be born under the flag that floats above his ship. Col. Barnsdale, a prominent citizen of Pittsburg, was traveling through Indian territory. While strolling around Muskogee he met an old colored woman who seemed to be an interesting character, and asked: "Aunty, how many people are there in this city?" The negress considered gravely for a few moments, and then said: "Well, boss, I reckon there's about 25,000, including the white folks." Col. Barnsdale says he thereupon saw a first illustration of how much depends upon the viewpoint. Oklahoma's star will be added to the flag on July 4 next year if the formal admission of the state to the union takes place before that time. The war and navy departments have agreed upon the arrangement of the 46 stars, to accommodate the new one, and to make it easy to add two more when New Mexico and Arizona are admitted. The plan provides for four rows of eight stars each, and two rows of seven stars each. The rows of seven are the second and the fifth. The rows of seven can be made into rows of eight when the other territories are admitted, and the arrangement will then be absolutely regular. The most powerful individual in China to-day is Yuan Shi Kai, the viceroy of Tientsin. He is virtually the dictator of the empire, having as his ally the aged empress dowager. No decree is issued from Peking without his approval. He is credited with having caused the Chinese government to issue the recent anti-opium decree. Yuan is a man of great force of character, and a believer in progress. He has taken many steps to modernize his country. Numerous attempts have been made to assassinate him. It is hoped that through his efforts China will be transformed into a progressive land. ROAD AND FARM IMPROVEMENT LADDER THAT WON'T SLIP. Easily Fixed by Attaching Piece of Rough Hemlock Board to Bottom. When it is desired to use a ladder where there is any possibility of its slipping, as, for instance, upon a smooth barn floor, it should be so constructed that it will hold, says a writer in the American Agriculturist. A pair of sharp spikes properly driven into the lower end will prevent its slipping, and is, perhaps, the simplest method, but often this is not desirable, as such a ladder will injure a floor. A ladder which is free from this objection is shown in the illustration Plan of Non-Slipping Ladder. and may be made by fastening a piece of board to the bottom. The board should be about three feet long and eight inches wide, and should be unplaned on the lower side. An old, weather-beaten hemlock board makes the best footing. It should be fastened at an angle so as to lie flat upon the floor. It may be nailed firmly in place, but generally it is better to fasten it with a pair of strong strap hinges. It will not slip upon the smoothest and hardest barn floor. FARM FACTS. It costs food to get an animal in good condition. Use any coarse litter that will hold the snow to cover the spinach bed. Do it now. Bedding makes the manure much more valuable and makes the horses look better. Four or five years is generally the life of a blackcap patch, but they should be renewed when decided failure is apparent. Be sure that the halters put on the colts are strong and well fitted. If broken or rubbed off, it will not be forgotten, and the result will be a halter-breaking horse and a nuisance. Thin grape vines at any time before spring growth starts, but when there is no frost in the canes. If the old vine is weak and not in bearing condition and you have a vigorous new cane from the roots, cut away the old vine. If a plowing match with suitable prizes were arranged in your neighborhood, would it draw as large a crowd as a horse race? If not, why not? Such plowing is evidently more sensible than racing.—Rural New Yorker. Feed the Bushes. How can you expect the currant row to feed you if it is not fed? In thousands of gardens the currant is seldom treated to fertilizers. Yet it is one of our most useful culinary fruits. We advise every reader who raises currants, says Farm Journal, to apply a top dressing of manure around each bush at this season. The same treatment is what the gooseberries and raspberries also need. In the spring the manure may be dug or cultivated into the soil. Woman Is Adventurous. In proof of the assertion made by the German authorities that all is well well in Morocco, an officer of the recent German expedition to Fez tells how, in the heart of Morocco, he had met an English woman touring alone. This fearless woman is Mrs. Frances V. Campbell. She is reported to have traveled all the way across Morocco on horseback, with no other escort than a few servants. Thoroughly Reliable. If ever there was a reliable and safe remedy it is that old and famous porous plaster—Allcock's. It has been in use for sixty years, and is as popular to-day as ever, and we doubt if there is a civilized community on the face of the globe where this wonderful pain reliever cannot be found. In the selection of the ingredients and in their manufacture the greatest care is taken to keep each plaster up to the highest standard of excellence, and so pure and simple are the ingredients that even a child can use them. Allcock's are the original and genuine porous plasters and are sold by Druggists all over the world. Rich Men Work for Pleasure. Theodore Gill, the world's greatest authority on fishes, works for the United States government, receiving one dollar a month for his services. He is a rich man on whom many universities have conferred titles and degrees. Dr. Harrison G. Dyer, another wealthy man, who knows more about mosquitoes than any other living person, devotes much of his time to government, receiving $25 a month. Gifford Pinchort, a millionaire, is head of the United States forestry service, but he is comparatively well paid, his salary being $45 per annum. Several other rich men are on the government pay roll at nominal figures, working for the pleasure of "doing things," as President Roosevelt puts it. AWFUL EFFECT OF ECZEMA. Covered with Yellow Sores—Grew Worse—Parents Discouraged—Cuticura Drove Sores Away. "Our little girl, one year and a half old, was taken with eczema or that was what the doctor called it. We called in the family doctor, and he gave some tablets and said she would be all right in a few days. The eczema grew worse and we called in doctor No. 2. He said she was teething, as soon as the teeth were through she would be all right. But she still grew worse. Doctor No. 3 said it was eczema. By this time she was nothing but a yellow, greenish sore. Well, he said he could help her, so we let him try it about a week. One morning we discovered a little yellow pimple on one of her eyes. Of course we 'phoned for doctor No. 3. He came over and looked her over, and said that he could not do anything more for her, that we had better take her to some eye specialist, since it was an ulcer. So we went to Oswego to doctor No. 4, and he said the eyesight was gone, but that he could help it. We thought we would try doctor No. 5. Well, that proved the same, only he charged $10 more than doctor No. 4. We were nearly discouraged. I saw one of the Cuticura advertisements in the paper and thought we would try the Cuticura Treatment, so I went and purchased a set of Cuticura Remedies, which cost me $1, and in three days our daughter, who had been sick about eight months, showed great improvement, and in one week all sores had disappeared. Of course it could not restore the eyesight, but if we had used Cuticura in time I am confident that it would have saved the eye. We think there is no remedy so good for any skin trouble or impurity of the blood as Cuticura. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Abbott, R. F. D. No. 9, Fulton, Oswego Co., N. Y., August 17, 1906." A woman gets almost as much satisfaction out of a good cry as a man does out of a "smile." BALM OF SCRIPTURE HEALING PROPERTIES OF PINE KNOWN TO ANCIENTS. Oil of the White Pine Tree Used Successfully by Physicians in Treating Consumptive Patients. The Oil of the Pine Tree is supposed to be the balm of Scripture. It contains great medicinal properties and was regarded with the utmost esteem by the ancients, and to the present day is peculiarly prized by the people of the East. A noted authority on diseases of the throat and lungs, who established a camp for consumptives in the Pine Woods of Maine, says that his entire treatment consisted of fresh air, nourishing food and the Pure Virgin Oil of the White Pine Trees, mixed with Whisky and Glycerine in the following proportions: Virgin Oil of Pine (Pure) $ \frac{1}{2} $ oz. Glycerine ..... 2 " Good Whisky ..... 8 " Used in teaspoonful doses every four hours. It is claimed the above mixture will heal and strengthen the lungs, break up a cold in twenty-four hours, and cure any cough that is curable. The ingredients can be secured from any good prescription druggist at small cost, and can be easily mixed in your own home. Virgin Oil of Pine (Pure) is put up only in half-ounce vials for dispensing. Each vial is securely sealed in a round wooden case with engraved wrapper with the name—Virgin Oil of Pine (Pure), prepared only by Leach Chemical Co., Cincinnati, O. plainly printed thereon. There are many rank imitations of Virgin Oil of Pine (Pure), which are put out under various names, such as Concentrated Oil of Pine, Pine Balsam, etc. Never accept these as a substitute for the Pure Virgin Oil of Pine, as they will invariably produce nausea and never effect the desired result. Developing the Sudan. There is talk in England of the proposed development of the natural resources of the Sudan through scientific exploration. Immense forests line the banks of the Blue Nile along its upper reaches, extending to the Abyssinian frontier. The ebony tree is met with along that river and also near the Sobat. Along the White Nile the india rubber creeper, a valuable source of rubber, abounds. There are large forests in the Bahr-el-Ghazal province and gold has been mined in some of the mountains. Search will be made for fuel. Makes Pain Go Away. Are you one of the ones who pay in toil For your right of way through this life?

Burns, bruises, cuts and sprains are not strangers to the man who wears corns on his hands. A better remedy for these troubles does not exist than Hunt's Lightning Oil. Then They Went Off. "It strikes me that you are loaded," said the pistol to the double-barrel shotgun. "Oh, not quite," rejoined the latter. "I'm only half-shot." Whereupon they both exploded with laughter.—Chicago Dally News. "It Knocks the Itch." It may not cure all your ills, but it does cure one of the worst.
