Every Church Expected to Enter the Fray with Unrelenting Zeal; Star Will Publish Results Each Week. The big two months contest which is being put on by The Tulsa Star to determine the most popular Colored church in Tulsa will start tomorrow, and judging from present indications the race between the churches will be a close one. Each pastor is anxious that his church will get the gold medal to be given by the Star to the pastor of the church getting the greatest number of subscribers to the Star, and of course all of the members of the six respective churches will do all they can to get the prize for their pastor. According to reports some of the pastors have been working in advance hoping to get the lead of the other churches in the start, but it is impossible to tell at this time which church will take the lead. Rules of the Contest: Each church will be given printed subscription blanks tomorrow morning These blanks are printed so as to allow the subscriber to register votes to any church of his choice. The blanks will be in the hands of the pastors of the different churches who will give them out to those he may wish to work in this contest for his church. As fast as they are filled out and turned in at the office of the Star the votes each coupon represents will be duly credited to the church the voter designates and the results of the contest up to and including Thursday of each week will be published. Therefore, all subscriptions must be turned in by Thursday night of each week. How Votes are Counted. Last week it was announced that one and two months subscriptions would be accepted in this contest, but this has been changed so that now only three, six and twelve months subscriptions will be accepted. Old subscribers are eligible to vote in this contest as renewals or extension of previous subscriptions. The votes are counted as follows: Three monts subscription, 250 votes. Six months subscription, 500 votes. One Year subscription, 1,000 votes. It is not necessary to be a member of any of the churches to vote. Any one may vote for the church of his choice. Each church will have its own coupon on which the name of the church and its pastor will be printed. Churches Get Part of Money. A very important feature of this contest to be kept in mind is the fact that each church will get ten per cent of the money it raises whether it wins the grand prize or not. This money will be paid every week as the subscriptions are turned in. Any further information will be cheerfully given on application. Call up any time. Phone 931. Wife of Promin First Baptist Church is Thrown in Mourning Over the Death of Pastor's Wife, Who Died Early Last Saturday Morning. Mrs. Fannie Kersh, wife of Rev. J. F. Kersh, pastor of the First Baptist church of this city, died at the church parsonage here last Saturday morning about 4 o'clock. Mrs. Kersh had been in bad health for some time but she would never give up. She was a devoted Christian woman and a great help meat to her husband. Before her marriage to Rev. Kersh she was Miss Fannie Harden of Pine Bluff, Arkansas where all of her people now live and where her remains were taken by her husband Sunday.

Hughes, former proprietor of the People's Drug store at Muskogee, stands in danger of being arrested and brought back to Tulsa to face a charge of larceny if Mrs. Fletcher who resides in this city carry out her threats. About a month ago, according to Mrs. Fletcher's story, Hughes went to her and borrowed her brand new $10.00 suit case saying he wanted to take something to a sick woman, promising to return it the next day. She let him have it and Hughes departed for parts unknown. Mrs. Fletcher feels very badly over the matter and says unless she gets her suit case or hears from him soon she will swear to a warrant for his arrest. West Held For Murder of Hill West Held For Murder of Hill Six-Year Old Boy was Eye Witness to Killing on East Archer Street Sunday Night; Proves Valuable Witness for State. The preliminary hearing of Wm. West on the charge of murdering Ebb Hill at 314 East Archer last Sunday night was held in Justice Shafer's court Wednesday morning and after all the testimony was introduced the defendant was bound over to the district court for trial without bond. It is generally believed that West killed Hill in a jealous fit about a woman. The only eye witness to the killing was little Arthur Lee Cook, the six year old son of Mrs. Johnson, the woman of the house where Hill was killed. This little fellow testified at the coroners inquest and also at the preliminary hearing, and at both trials he proved himself an unusually bright chap for his age and a very strong witness for the state. The lawyers for the defendant in a riggid cross examination were unable to break down Arthur's story of the killing. West stated to patrolman Smitherman, who arrested him immediately after the killing, that he shot Hill because the latter had mistreated him. Color Line Drawn Even in Charity. Special to the Star: Muskogee, Okla., March 10.—Replying to an appeal made for aid by Negro citizens of this city, the United Charities, a white organization established recently for charitable work declared that said society aimed to help whites only, Bishop Thurston, (Episcopalian), was appointed to organize a Negro charity society to look after Negroes. from the First Baptist church was probably the largest funeral ever seen among Colored people in this county. Rev. Kersh has pastored continuously for more than 12 years in Oklahoma and during all of those long years she had been at his side to cheer and comfort him. Her death was a great shock to her husband, who so often spoke affectionately of her to his Sunday audiences. The friends of the deceased showered their final respects to her in beautiful flowers and in kindest obituaries delivered over the remains in the First Baptist church Sunday before the funeral procession marched to the depot.

Special to the Star: Muskogee, Okla., March 10.—The County Assessor in a statement published today says that Sarah Rector, the little Negro Freedman girl, is the heaviest assessed for personal property in Muskogee County. Sarah's personal property valuation is put at about $55,000. This does not include real property holdings of hers in land, oil wells, stocks, bonds and mortgages. Sarah's guardian is a white man. Negro Merchant Prophesies Higher Prices. Special to the Star: Muskgoose, Okla., March 10—T. J. Elliott, the well known clothier, sees nothing in the near future but higher prices for all woolen and leather goods He says the demand of the warring European nations to clothe the soldiers engaged has drained the world's supply of wool and leather. He predicts no more marked down sales of clothing and points to ladies' shoes made entirely of cloth except the tips and soles. Accused Wife of Selling Whiskey Hides Whiskey to get Wife in Trouble and Lands in Jail Himself; May be Tried for Convexing Boose. B. W. Swinger of this city played the Mordica act last Tuesday night, if reports are true, when he maliciously placed a half pint of whiskey and some alcohol in a barrel on the back porch of his wife's home and then going to the police station and telling the officers that Mrs. Swinger was engaged in selling boose. To make his story strong he told the officers exactly where the "wet goods" was located, telling the officers to hurry out there and they would find it. Two plain clothes men and sergant Fields were detailed to investigate the matter. In the East End these officers found patrolman Smitherman and took him along with them to find the "plant." The house proved to be that of Mrs. Emma Swinger who conducts a cafe at 415 N. Greenwood. The officers searched the house thoroughly but found nothing until they went to the back porch where they found the half pint of whiskey and alcohol where Swinger had told them it was planted. Things did not look exactly clear to patrolman Smitherman and he asked the sergant who gave the information. The sergant could not tell the mans name who "tipped" off the plant, but said he would know the face. Smitherman then suspicioning the woman's husband, knowing that she had sued him for divorce, went to his place of abode to arrest him on suspicion but he was not there. Returning he found Swinger talking to the officers and when told that he was the man who gave the information immediately placed him under arrest and sent him to the police station where he is being held for investigation. Earlier in the day, it is said, Swinger had told the sheeriff that his wife was selling whiskey and deputy Freeman L. Martin in company with Barney Cleaver had searched the house finding nothing. Wednesday morning Barney Cleaver learning that Swinger's nephew had been in Mrs. Swinger's place the night before went to him and questioned him. The boy told Cleaver that Swinger paid him a dime to go the place and remain there half an hour presumably to hold Mrs. Swinger's attention in the front while he hid the whiskey in the rear. Tracks were found in the rear of the premises by ex-deputy Cleaver, which he claims corresponds to the shoes worn by Swinger. Swinger may be tried for "conveying."

During the season of Lent there is any number of wholesome dishes which are suitable for any meal and take the place of meat. The combination of eggs (hard cooked), macaroni, cheese and white sauce is especially well liked and is not only appetizing but highly nutritive. Rice and Egg.—Put a quarter of a cupful of rice with two tablespoonfuls of hot fat into a frying pan, cook until the rice is brown, then add enough water to simmer slowly until the rice is tender. Add three or four eggs and a half cupful of milk to the rice and stir until well mixed and the eggs delicately cooked. Season with salt and a few dashes of paprika and serve with hot buttered rolls. Pepper Rarebit.—Cook one tablespoonful of butter with two of chopped green pepper and one and a half tablespoonfuls of chopped onion three minutes, stirring constantly. Add a half cupful of tomato put through a ricer, cook two minutes; then add a half pound of rich cheese, cut in bits, and, when nearly melted, stir in one egg beaten lightly. Serve on salted wafers or toasted buttered bread. Parsley Potatoes. — Cut potatoes with a cutter into small balls, cook in boiling salted water, drain and shake in a dish of melted butter, with finely chopped parsley. Salt and a few dashes of red pepper are added, then serve as a garnish to a platter of poached eggs.

See that the skif is all removed from the mutton and if it has been properly dressed, it will not taste woolly. Fried Salt Pork.—There is no more appetizing meat dish when well prepared than the following: Parbull slices of pork in boiling water, then roll in flour and fry until brown. In the fat which has been tried out, stir flour and cook until brown, then add milk and seasonings and serve with baked potatoes and the fried pork. Hamburg Roast.—Take a pound and a half of hamburger, add two slices of salt pork chopped, one cupful of crumbs, one egg and a teaspoonful of salt. Shape in a loaf, and lay on strips of pork, and cover with a strip or two. Roast in a hot oven, basting often with a fourth of a cup of hot water added to the pan when put into the oven. Strain a brown sauce round the roast when serving. Smothered Steak.—Brown a piece of round steak in a hot pan, add a chopped onion and water to simmer gently for an hour on the back of the stove. Season well and dredge with flour when half done. A sauce may be made to serve with the steak by melting two tablespoonfuls of butter, add two of flour and when cooked add the liquor from the steak. Pour around it and serve hot. PAGE TWO Do you ask, Philaeus, why I often come abroad with palester on my chin, or with my lips covered with salve?

Serve with whipped cream flavored with vanilla. Whipped Cream Cake. — No more delicious dessert can be imagined than a good layer cake of two layers, filled with sweetened whipped cream and the top covered with it.

Skirt Lines That Have Been Popular Now Reckoned as Dead—Long Skirts Are No Longer to Be Considered. As far as one can judge from the meager information that the experts give, there will be as much laxity in choice of fashionable apparel from now until June as there has been since last June. If this condition is continued it might result in the elimination of that fetish "the leading fashion" and give women and dress-makers a far better chance to display initiative. There are styles, however, that are not in the running any longer, wide as the choice remains. The skirt that is narrow across the back at the knees, and pulled up and forward to the front with a sash from hem to knees, is among the things that are reckoned as dead. The long coat is another fashion with a taboo, unless it serves as an overcoat, and the wide elbow sleeves with a lowered armhole should be abandoned by those who still cling to it. Long skirts for any occasion are not reckoned in the spring styles, for even when there is train, it is not part of a hem that sweeps the floor all around, but a separate attachment. Coats that fasten the waist line are abandoned for those whose buttons, always prominent, end above the waist, or merge into a girdle. The long waist line on jackets is meeting with strong opposition, but no one can safely predict that its design is done. The same lenency may be claimed for the high collar. True, it is the leading collar, but no one can deny that the side, rolling, low one has many adherents; the new white blouses that were offered recently have collars in this shape, and do not even compromise with the fashion that calls for a high buttoned stock. Over in Paris the women practically have abandoned the collars that close up the front, but they show that they bend to the demand for the high one by allowing the bones to keep it up in the back and at the sides, and, after going that far, the material is simply cut away from under the chin. This trick keeps down any semblance of a double roll of flesh at the spot where a woman detests it. The collar that buttons in a straight line around the neck always adds to a woman's age, therefore, why accept it? There are so many ways of getting around it. There is a tendency on all sides to lower the collar on coats also; it is not reasonable to suppose that the coachman's collar of fur, which has been such a happy note in street costumes, will be repeated in cloth. It wouldn't go with the mild weather. Cheruit is making a bid for the return of the shawl revers, and Bernard and Drecoll are giving some attention to the plain revers and collar of other days. These are not especially graceful, and it is to be hoped that we shall get hold of something more enlivening to the coat when the new fashions come out. SMART COATS FOR SPRING Change in Skirt Styles Has Made Changes in Designs of Outer Garments Necessary. The change in style from the straight line coats to the full ripple forms is due to the full skirts that are in vogue, as it is necessary that the coats worn with these garments have a wide swing at the edge. Extreme models have the ripples falling in deep folds from the shoulders. In other designs the ripples start from the waist line. These practical coats have the short-waisted effect, with semifitting upper sections and a moderately full skirt hung from the raised waist line. Smart coats for sport and motor wear are in checks, tweeds, mannish mixtures and chinchillas. Motor coats usually have wide belts, and the trimings match the bright colored threads in the cloth. Some of the newest coats are between a cape and a coat. These are trimmed in military style in army blue or gray. The real military cape is also seen. They are touched up with gilt braid and buttons, or finished with black braid and buttons. Sometimes the sleeves are set in the regular arm-size, but they are made large, being more practical than the fitted kind. Modified kimono sleeves set on the long shoulder flare, are seen in limited numbers, as are also sleeves with a cap finish over the shoulders. Very high collars are worn, but are more practical when they are adjustable. In this way they can be fastened snugly about the throat or turned down if desired.

But in poultry culture, as in everything else, people who go about it in the riht way have the best success. If you want to know how to increase your income from poultry, take the best poultry paper published—The Poultry Item.

An editor of a New York magazine recently received a story of which the scene was laid in the state of Washington. He wished to have the story illustrated, and in order to obtain the best local detail he sent the manuscript to a young artist out in Washington. Before doing so, how ever, he scrawled hastily across the top of the first page the address of the writer, which did not otherwise appear on the manuscript. It was "Shelton, Wash." With the story the editor sent a letter asking the artist to make a wash drawing of a certain effective scene and forward it as soon as possible. By return mail the editor received an anxious reply from the youthful artist, saying: "I note that you wish me to use Shelton wash. I do not know of any such wash, nor do any of the dealers out here. If you can send me a tube I shall be glad to make the drawing." --- With Every Order An Extra Suit FREE Conservation News Around Town Remember, it takes money to run this paper. Please pay up.

Sister Cordelia Smith one of the bright stars of Mt Zion Baptist Church, was called away last Thursday. She died of smallpox. Sister Fannie Kersh wife of Rev. J F. Kersh, passed away Saturday morning at 3:30 o'clock. The memories of each of these sisters were held Sunday, sister Kersh at the First Baptist church and sister Smith at the Mt. Zion. At 1 p.m. the christians and two lodges turned out in memory of our beloved ministers wife. Representative from four churches and two lodges participated. Condolence by the First Baptist Missionary society, song by the Court of Calanthe, the test appeared with their parts. Then the Mt. Zion Home Mission represented by sister Holderness with condolence and flowers, then the choir with condolence and flowers. Then brother W. D. Woods with condolence and flowers. Rev. Johnson of the A. M. E. church was next who told of the life of sister Kersh for eight years as a christian. Mr. Ragsdale the funeral director came forward and allowed the friends to view the remains. Then the long and steady march to Frisco depot where the deceased and her husband accompanied by sister Hattie L. Owens left for Pine Bluff, Ark., where she was laid to rest. We hurried to the Mt. Zion church where we found a waiting audience with a well chosen and prepared program in memory of our beloved sister Smith. The obituary was read by sister C. B. Jones. Sister R. A. Whitaker read the vacant pew. Pastor Whitaker preached the memorial sermon, Peace be to these noble wemon's ashes and the blessings of God be upon their relatives. Revs. C. L. Netherland and Whitaker officiated in these services. They worked together like york fellows. The pastor of the Mt. Zion was to leave on the 9th for Los Angeles Cal., but on account of sickness in his home he was delayed. He will leave Monday March 15th, he and little Hellen. The Star will find him at 1413 Lawrence st. at the home of his mother. Rev. Whitaker will give us a short letter each week from the golden west. If you wish to know his whereabouts "Read the STAR".

ACTS LIKE DYNAMITE ON LIVER I Guarantee "Dodsons' Liver Tone" Will Give You the Best Liver and Bowel Cleansing You Ever Had—Doesn't Make You Sick! PAGE SIX CALOMEL WHEN BIL ACTS LIKE I Guarantee "Dodsons' Liver To and Bowel Cleansing You Eve Stop using calomel! It makes you sick. Don't lose a day's work. If you feel lazy, sluggish, billious or consti- nated listen to me! Calomel is mercury or quicksilver which causes necrosis of the bones. Calomel, when it comes into contact with sour bile crashes into it, breaking it up. This is when you feel that awful nausea and cramping. If you feel "all knocked out," if your liver is torpid and bowels constipated or you have headache, dizziness, coated tongue, if breath is bad or stomach sour just try a spoonful of harmless Dodson's Liver Tone. Here's my guarantee—Go to any drug store or dealer and get a 50-cent bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone. Take a "Steal or Kill?" Traffic in the downtown district of St. Louis was blocked for half an hour the other day when Frank Witt, a machinist out of work, paraded the streets wearing the following sandwich sign: "Chief Young wants 300 more policemen to stop the increasing crimes. "What shall I do? "No work, no money, four motherless children to feed. "Shall I steal, commit highway robbery or kill myself and children? "One thousand are in the same position in this city today. "Enormous luxury; enormous poverty. "What shall I do?" "The sign," said Witt in jail, "was my only way of attracting attention in the hope of getting a job. I've tried everything else. My wife died recently." SAGE TEA DARKENS GRAY HAIR TO ANY SHADE. TRY IT! Keep Your Locks Youthful, Dark, Glossy and Thick With Garden Sage and Sulphur. When you darken your hair with Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it's done so naturally, so evenly. Preparing this mixture, though, at home is mussy and troublesome. For 50 cents you can buy at any drug store the ready-to-use tonic called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy." You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morning all gray hair disappears, and, after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully darkened, glossy and luxuriant. You will also discover dandruff is gone and hair has stopped falling. Gray, faded hair, though no disgrace, is a sign of old age, and as we all desire a youthful and attractive appearance, get busy at once with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur and look years younger. Adv.

Dodson's Liver Tone is destroying the sale of calomel because it is real liver medicine; entirely vegetable, therefore it cannot salivate or make you sick. I guarantee that one spoonful of Dodson's Liver Tone will put your sluggish liver to work and clean your bowels of that sour bile and constipated waste which is clogging your system and making you feel miserable. I guarantee that a bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone will keep your entire family feeling fine for months. Give it to your children. It is harmless; doesn't gripe and they like its pleasant taste A Wrong Impression A German looking for a person by the name of Dunn, who owed him money, asked a young fellow near Sweeny's eating house where No. 66 Chatham street was, as he "wished to find Mr. Dunn." The fellow told him to go into Sweeny's eating house and the man near the window was Mr. Dunn. The German went into the eating house and went up to a man who happened to be an Irishman. "Are you Dunn?" said the German. "Done?" said Pat. "By my soul, I have just started." — Philadelphia Record. IS CHILD CROSS FEVERISH, SICK Look, Mother! If tongue is coated, give "California Syrup of Figs." Children love this "fruit laxative," and nothing else cleanses the tender stomach, liver and bowels so nicely. A child simply will not stop playing to empty the bowels, and the result is they become tightly clogged with waste, liver gets sluggish, stomach sours, then your little one becomes cross, half-sick, feverish, don't eat, sleep or act naturally, breath is bad, system full of cold, has sore throat, stomach ache or diarrhoea. Listen, Mother! See if tongue is coated, then give a teaspoonful of "California Syrup of Figs," and in a few hours all the constipated waste, sour bile and undigested food passes out of the system, and you have a well child again. Millions of mothers give "California Syrup of Figs" because it is perfectly harmless; children love it, and it never falls to act on the stomach, liver and bowels. Ask at the store for a 50-cent bottle of "California Syrup of Figs," which has full directions for babies, children of all ages and for grown-ups plainly printed on the bottle. Adv.

DRINK LOTS OF WATER TO FLUSH THE KIDNEYS Eat Less Meat and Take Salts for Backache or Bladder Trouble—Neutralize Acids. Uric acid in meat excites the kidneys, they become overworked; got sluggish, ache, and feel like lumps of lead. The urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is irritated, and you may be obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night. When the kidneys clog you must help them flush off the body's urinous waste or you'll be a real sick person shortly. At first you feel a dull misery in the kidney region, you suffer from backache, sick headache, dizziness, stomach gets sour, tongue coated and you feel rheumatic twinges when the weather is bad. Eat less meat, drink lots of water; also get from any pharmacist four ounces of Jad Salts; take a table-spoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity, also to neutralize the acids in urine, so it no longer is a source of irritation, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink which everyone should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active. Druggists here say they sell lots of Jad Salts to folks who believe in overcoming kidney trouble while it is only trouble.—Adv. How She Loves Her! He—Yes; Ermyntrude was born on April 2.

THE TULSA STAR SUDDENWARNING FOR CARRANZA WILSON SENDS HIM A NOTE BACKED UP BY FLEET OF WARSHIPS. WILL NOT TOLERATE CONDITIONS As They Now Exist in Mexico City. Disease and Famine Threaten 25,000 Foreigners In the Capital. Washington.—A Mexican-American crisis, scarcely less acute than that which a few months ago caused the landing of United States troops at Vera Cruz caused the Washington government to order the cruiser Tacoma from Port au Prince, Haytil, to steam at once to Vera Cruz and two or more battle ships from Guantanamo are ordered to the same destination. It also was learned that the British steamship Wyvisbrook has been seized by Carranza at Campeche and her commander, Captain Muir, has been placed in jail. Carranza Is Warned. General Carranza has been informed in a note from the United States government that unless there is an immediate improvement in conditions with respect to foeigners and their interests in Mexican territory under his control, such steps as may be necessary will be taken by the American government to obtain the desired protection. The note is the strongest and most emphatic document that has been C. HARRIS & EWING General Carranza. sent by the Washington government to Mexico since the correspondence with Huerta a year ago. As a result of the latest developments the battleship Delaware will remain at Vera Cruz indefinitely; the cruiser Tacoma left Port au Prince, Hayti, under orders to proceed at once to Vera Cruz; the gunboat Petrel already is en route from Mobile, Ala., and the cruiser Des Moines is bound from Progreso to Vera Cruz while the gunboat Sacramento is at Tampico. Other available light draft vessels—more valuable than battleships in tropical waters—are the gunboats Wheeling and Nashville being held in readiness with the armored cruiser Washington in Haytlen and Dominican waters, while the entire Atlantic fleet of twenty-one first class battleships is at Guantanamo, within two and a half days sail of Vera Cruz. Mr. Daniels gave this summary of the position of the warships but declined to discuss future movements. Mexico Conditions Menacing. Latest reports from Mexico City indicate a menacing condition of affairs for the 25,000 foreigners there of whom 2,500 are Americans. The Carranza authorities have commandeered all the medicines and medical supplies in the chief hospital and sent them to Vera Cruz. An appeal has been made to the United States to dispatch hospital ships to Vera Cruz to send medical ships to Mexico City. Typhus fever and smallpox have broken out in the capital as well as at Tampico. In the face of the threatened riots and the famine in Mexico City the state department received a note from the Carranza government which had been transmitted to all the diplomatic representatives in Mexico City announcing, on the authority of General Carranza, that the capital would be evacuated by the forces of General Abregon. Italy Placated. Berlin.—It is announced in diplomatic quarters that a decided relaxation of tension in the Austro-Italian situation is noticeable. This is attributed probably to the initiation of direct negotiations between the two countries in response to the Austrian overtures. How far the negotiations have progressed and whether tangible results have been obtained has not been learned but it is believed improbable in diplomatic circles that any decisive result has been reached. TAKES OFF DANDRUFF HAIR STOPS FALLING TAKES OFF DANDRUFF HAIR STOPS FALLING Girls! Try This! Makes Hair Thick, Glossy, Fluffy, Beautiful—No More Itching Scalp. Within ten minutes after an application of Danderine you cannot find a single trace of dandruff or falling hair and your scalp will not itch, but what will please you most will be after a few weeks' use, when you see new hair, fine and downy at first—yes—but really new hair—growing all over the scalp.

No difference how dull, faded, brittle and scruggy, just moisten a cloth with Danderine and carefully draw it through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. The effect is amazing—your hair will be light, fluffy and wavy, and have an appearance of abundance; an incomparable luster, softness and luxuriance. Get a 25 cent bottle of Knowlton's Danderine from any store, and prove that your hair is as pretty and soft as any—that it has been neglected or injured by careless treatment—that's all—you surely can have beautiful hair and lots of it if you will just 'try a little Danderine.

"The human organism receives but a small fraction of the nutritive minerals which Nature evidently intended it to have, and the inevitable result is Mineral Starvation and its dire consequences in the shape of Malnutrition, General Debility, Anemia, Indigestion, Tuberculosis, Rachitis, Gout, Carcinoma, Diabetes, Nephritis, Decayed Teeth, and other modern diseases."

"There is a widespread but erroneous belief in official circles, and among wealthy philanthropists," writes Str Ray Lankester in the London Daily Telegraph, "to the effect that you can hire a scientific discoverer and then say to him, 'Discover me this' or 'Discover me that' (namiag to him a possible and greatly desired piece of new knowledge), and that he will thereupon proceed right away to make the discovery which you want. . . . But valuable and important scientific discovery cannot be produced directly in response to orders given and money extended. "You cannot manufacture scientific discovery like soap. The great difficulty, in the first place, is to catch that rare and evasive creature—a scientific discoverer—and when you have found him you have to humor him and let him do as he fancies. Then he will discover things, but prabably not the things which either you or he wanted or expected." New Cancer Serum. The results of the work of nearly a year by physicians, surgeons and laboratory staff of the General Memorial hospital of New York, tending to show the success of a new cancer serum, are expected to be published soon in an official report of the medical board of the institution to announcements made today. The report will contain the name of the discoverer of the new serum, its composition, the details of the preliminary laboratory work and the individual medical histories of the patients so far treated in the hospital. The announcements forecast this report as one of the most important contributions to science emanating from the medical professions in this country. The serum is used by injection. The cancerous growths break down, disintegrate and disappear, it is asserted.

NEW ARMOR PLATE NEW ARMOR PLATE The New Process, it is Claimed, Will Make Large Guns Useless. Another of the series of experiments to determine the resisting power of a certain class of armor was recently conducted with extremely satisfactory results. Fortifications of this metal might be made indestructible and it would be useless to bombard them. It is also useless to try to make a success in life if handicapped by poor health. You lack the strength and stamina necessary to win. In the majority of cases of poor health, stomach trouble is the real cause; but this can be corrected by careful diet and the assistance of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. It tones, strengthens and helps the digestive function, from the food it is properly digested, strength and renewed vigor is sent coursing through the entire system. The proper time for action is when you notice the first symptoms of weakness, such as loss of appetite, headache, bloating, heartburn, sour stomach, indigestion or constipation and by resorting to Hostetler's Stomach Bitters you can help Nature care them. They only agravate mats and songs but humpiness. Take a bottle home with you today but see that the stamp over the neck is unbroken. TRACTS CLEARED OF MALARIA Gratifying Progress Has Been Made by Those Interested in Conquering the Disease. Malaria, to which children are susceptible, has been made largely a preventable disease by a study of the mosquito carrier, its breeding places and natural history, and by inoculation experiments on animals and man. It was proved by Italian observers that the mosquito disseminates bird malaria in the same manner as in the human subject. The final upshot of these investigations has been that large tracts of hitherto waste and dangerous land have been rendered safe and productive. A widespread cause of debilitating sickness, and even of death, has thus been removed. In such areas the saddest sight has been the stunted, anemic children, with enlarged livers and spleens, the evidences of chronic malarial poisoning, that can now be obviated by putting modern knowledge into effect.

LESSON FOR MARCH 14 SAUL GAINS HIS KINGDOM. LESSON TEXT-I Samuel, chapter 11. GOLDEN TEXT-He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit, than he that taketh a city.-Prov. 16:32. In order to repay Israel's victory under Jepthah, Nahash the Ammonite demanded the right eye of those besieged in Jabesh in Gilead, knowing that the left eye would be hid by their shields and they would thus be incapable of warfare. For Israel to make any covenant with the Ammonites was contrary to God's commands (Ex. 23:32; Deut. 23:3). I. The Cry of Jabesh, vv. 1-3. This event probably occurred about a month after the previous lesson. It was a proud, haughty demand made of these Israelites. Exhausted and hopeless, they had offered to become servants in order to live. So today we frequently find men willing to compromise with the world and the devil, who only hold them in derision and contempt (v. 2). Compromising Christians are always blind leaders of the blind (Matt. 15:14; 6:22). The demand of Nahash would also bring reproach upon Israel, yet this same king afterwards showed kindness to David (II Samuel 10:2). History records that Emperor Basil II actually sent an army of 14,850 sightless men back to the king of Bul garia, who died of grief and horror. II. The Conquest of Ammon, vv. 4-11. Nahash granted the request for a seven days' respite. Here was Saul's opportunity—wrongs to be righted and people to be saved. Saul had held his peace since being anointed by Samuel, employing his time in everyday toll and duties (v. 5), for the messengers did not find Saul at home idle. The tidings of this insult were told to the people who lifted up their voices and wept. (v. 4). The news of this threatened calamity reached Saul's ears and his conduct effectually put to silence those "worthless fellows" who despised him and had brought no presents at his anointing (10:27). Instead of tears Saul is moved to deeds. Like Cincinnatus and Israel Putnam, he left the plow to take up the sword. Saul did not, in his own strength, undertake to relieve Jabesh, for "the Spirit of God came upon him" (v. 6; see also Judges 3:10; 11:20; 13:25; Luke 24:19; Acts 10:38). This moved Saul to anger, not alone at such an evidence of cruelty, but more at the contempt Nahash had for God and his people. Saul associated himself with Samuel, the man of God, and summoned the nation of Israel to his side. The Holy Spirit gave Saul clear assurance of a call from God, and he responded with unquestioned faith (Rom. 8:31). The people responded with great rapidity, for the fear of God came upon them also. We have the good news of a better deliverance from a more subtle foe to proclaim in the present age. They all resorted to Bezek, west of the Jordan. The messengers returned bearing a message having two meanings (v.10), and that helped to keep Nahash ignorant of Saul's actions on the other side of the river. Dividing his army into companies Saul attacked the enemy "in the morning watch," and completely overwhelmed them and put them to rout. As the Ammonites had refused to show any mercy, they in turn were judged unworthy of mercy (v.11, see also James 2:13; Matt. 7:2). III. The Crowning of Saul, vv. 12-15. Saul's victory so impressed the people that they demanded to know of Samuel who it was that had refused him as king, desiring to put them to death. Saul showed his wisdom by not permitting such a course of action. Many today refuse God's divinely appointed king who will yet be glad to acknowledge him (Luke 19:27; Phil. 2:10). In the next place Saul did not claim credit for the victory for, said he, "The Lord hath wrought deliverance in Israel" (v. 13 R. V.). All real victories come from God (Ps. 44:4:8; I Cor. 15:10). This was the true kingly spirit. Saul reaped the reward of his humility, his forbearance, courage and activity in the loyalty and pride of the people. Samuel gladly shared in the success of Saul and led the people to Gilgal for the crowning ceremony. This was the place where Israel had first encamped under the leadership of Joshua and where the twelve stcms from the river had been set up as a testimony to God's real pence and deliverance. Saul had natural and physical characteristics calculated to make him a great and useful king—self-restraint, modesty, military invention and a capacity for leadership. He was shrewd, patient and generous. He thus stood on the threshold of his kingdom with the possibilities of untold usefulness and blessing. We are "kings and priests unto God." He has ushered us into his kingdom. Power, usefulness, influence, helpfulness, victory ove" sin are before us. "Napoleon said that his nobility dated from Arcole and Marengo. May ours date from the victories of love over the evil within us and in the world," "This is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith" (I John 5:4). THE TULSA STAR FARMERS WHO SUCCEED IN WESTERN CANADA Those Who Exercise Thrift, Practice Due Economy, and Adopt Reasonable Methods Are Sure to Prosper. Those who are interested in developing the agricultural resources of Western Canada in bringing to the notice of those whom they desire to take part in this development present only the facts. There has never been given the impression that farming in Western Canada could be carried on without effort or labor, but it has been successfully stated that better results can be secured with less outlay of capital, either in money or labor, than anywhere else on the continent. This has been proven time and time again. Hundreds of cases could be cited where men have taken up farms, either a homestead, or purchased from railways or land companies, and with little capital at the start have acquired a competence, have established good homes for themselves, and provided a sure future. They have comfortable homes and all their surroundings are comfortable, speak of the reward that their thrift has accomplished. Carl Dickan, of Russian Poland lived in Pittsburgh, Pa., for fourteen years, and saved up $900. In 1903 he took the $900 with him to Alberta. His own story is that he bought a quarter section, for which he agreed to pay $1,200. "In 1904 I had thirty acres of crop, threshed 900 bushels. In 1909 I bought another quarter. I now have one hundred acres under cultivation, and have never had a crop failure. Have threshed forty-seven bushels of wheat per acre, but the average has been about forty. My oats for the eleven years that I have been here averaged forty-seven bushels to the acre. I now have 9 horses, 47 head of cattle, 33 hogs, which I consider worth $3,600. I have a thousand dollars worth of farm implements and my land is worth $8,000. This is all clear of debt. I have every reason to consider this a first-class mixed farming, dairying and poultry raising country, as I think that it is apparent that I have had some success. The only help that I had was my oldest boy, who was 8 years old when I arrived in Alberta." About fifty miles west of Wetaskiwin there is a partially timbered district lying between Buck Lake and Pigeon Lake. All this land is ready for homesteading, and judging from a letter received by a resident there, this would seem to be an ideal place for a farmer who desired such surroundings. This settler lives on the shore of Buck Lake, his land is willow brush, which is easy to clear. Some of the lumber is good saw timber, and lots of good logs for buildings can be had, as well as rails for fencing. For wheat growing the soil is excellent. Water is easily secured, fishing is good and plentiful and game is anything but scarce. The settlers are mostly from the United States and Canada—Advertisement.
