carrying in their columns ads for
liquor houses, the State I apital
points out that Attorney-General
West failed to bring suit against tjie

.contends that the enforcement of
the law from Mr. West's standpoint

Walking along the street, one of

wore a button about twice the size
of a silver dollar; on it bright red
letters were advertised this legend to
the smiling public '-Ask Me. 1 1

At this the most beautiful season I
of the year, ns we look upon the
buistiijg of leaf and bud, to the
Resurrection as it were of nature,
•'What manner of man is he whose j
mind does not turn to the simplest
and also as we think to the deepest
element ot the evidence lor the fact
of the true resurrection. 1 he risen
Christ is the hope of the believer,
Christ not in the Heavens, but in the j
heart. The true liapptpese of lite j
consists not in the size or shape oi :
the hat. Mr. preacher man, or in the
color ot the shoes, even in the tem
inine mind, llappy the person who !
can live above these things and we |
trulv beleive there are many, many
that do, but true happiness is 111 the
conditoiot one ; |heart—the'charac-
t ;r of one's thoughts—these material
tilings perish with ihe using; but the
christian character rises pure and
beautiful enduring forever, and
triumphing over matirial tilings all
because of the risen Christ in the
heart.

Owen's Tribute To
Women.
"Every good principle 1 have
learned, everything ot good morals
and good Banners I received from
a woman. And I have observed jn
|i.story that ji)st as high as is the
position given to women in a nation
iust so surely will that nation rise
to distinction and fame. 1 give my j
adherence to this cause with enthu-!
piasm and religious zeal. I know
jvhen 1 serve the women I serve God.
Whep there are 0,000, QUO women
earning their living outside of do-
mestic service with what face, gentle-
men of the "committee, do you refuse
this prayer of the women!
Some tell 11s that the bad women
would vote. 1 answer this by point-
ing.put to you that there arc so
mahv more good women than bad in
the wofld.
I love the womes's cause for the
enemies it has made.
The "tavorite sons who are can-
didates lor the presidency have no
doubt learned by this time that the
domination is not inclined to sit on
their back door-step waiting tor au
invitation.to come in. W hile such
a courie is more dignilLtl and alto-
gether to be desired in a candidate

policy in the legislature as far as
niakingjaws are concerned, about,
half of the members of the lower
house paraded the streets of Guthiie
last Thur-day made up as rag-muf-
fins, imitation Rubens, etc.
According to reports from Guthrie
sixty live members, headed by Mill-
ray. had ordered the farmer suits
for "Oklahoma Day," but l;ke all
suits for any special occasion the
clothes failed to arrivo 011 time.
When they came the tomptation to
use them was too much for the fun-
ilollng members and headed by the
Guthrie skating rink band they
started out.
To the tune of ''Dixie," a "Hot
Time in the Old Town Tonight,"
"Turkey in the SeraWi " and such
old favorites the parade swung down
past the lone and around in front
of the state house, where Govarnor
Haskell made a short address, fol
lowed by a doudle jig danced by
j' 'Grist Mill'' Jones and Stump Ash-
by to the tune of "An Arkansas
Traveler," ployed jig time. The
parade then reversed and marched
around for half an hour proclaming
themselves farmers and shouting
for a farmer on the state board of
health, which waBtiie funniest thing
that liappend, considering the fact
that only two hours before they had
defeated "the-farmer-on-the-board-
of-health" bill by a vote of sixty-
five to twenty.
The parade then massed before
the lone hotel where Murray danced
around with Cicero Skeen while the
band played "Waltz Me Aronnd
Again Willie" and the crowd yelled-
The parade ended by the repre-
sentativs marching to the city hall
where the lower house holds forth,
and there working 011 legislative
matters for the remainder of the
afternoon, still wearing their farm-
ers' dress.
'"Farmers' clothes, all right,"
aaid an old farmer humorously,
! watching them from the gallery,

| inside them overall.'*—1Tiroes.
Queer news comes from Cliasey, |
New York. Few people have ever j
heard of Cliasey, but it is a town j
whose fame is liable to go around |
the world. It has a fame that is
pecular—3- fame that nature, in its
most erratic mood, hasgiven it. A I
girl has been born there with two!
tongues, both of them well develop-1
ed. Just think of her in her mat- j
urity—a woman with two tongues-
Just think of her future husband—
a man with a wife having two ton-
gues.
The evidence is that Cliasey need-
ed mi-re tongues than it hail, and I
that Nature realized the necessity.
That baby is four months old, and ]
not a word has been said about it j
until now—an evidence that the!
tongues of Chasey have not been j
doing their duty. It is a slow town j
or the thing that makes it famous
would have been telegraphed far
and wide before the child was four
hours old—for a girl with two>
tongues is something to talk about,
and something the people want to!
know. about.
Imagin Carrie Natson or Myra|
iicHenry or Mary Ellen Lease with]
two tongues instead oflone. What:
power they would have on the lec-1
ture platform and on the hustings, j
What crowds they would draw to j
hear how much more they could i
say, for it is a fact beyond dispute,
thtit no woman has ever yet been |
born who has had sufficient tongue
power to say just as much as she
would like to say when the weakness
of poor mortal man gave her prov-
ocation to talk.
It is hoped that this remarkable
child of Chasey will live to be a
woman that the word might see
what can actually b« done by a
woman with two tongues W ichita

All over thi-i land of our", we hear
the cry for men—men of training-
men of practical ideas, men of or-
iginal thovughts, men of executive
ability- Why not you be 011c of
these? There are great opportuni-
ties for such men, their value is in-
estimable, and the question is- not
what would such a man cost but
! where can I find him. bo you may
| see something of the importance of
making thorough preparation, and
j there is no better avenue through
; which to make this preparation
