It's a Jarer.
If you smash or bruise youi finger, do
not cry,
If you sprain a joint or muscle, Just
try
Rubbing a little of it on, and the pain
will soon be gone.
It performs while others promise,
"they will cure you bye and
bye."
Hunt's Lightning Oil is the greatest
Instantaneous performer in the circus
of life. Any ache, or pain it will not
jar loose is a fixture.
Come to Congressman's Idea.
Some years ago Lemuel Ely Quigg,
than a congressman, expressed the
opinion that the police commissioner
of New York city should be "an In-
telligent despot." The idea was ridi-
culed then, but Mr. Quigg derives
some satisfaction from the knowledge
that the grand jury of New York coun-
ty has made a recommendation ap-
proaching somewhat closely to his
view. The commissioner, says the
jury, should hold office for at least ten
years and should be removable only
upon proof of charges which he has
had opportunity to meet.
A Great Outside Remedy.
Most pains are of local origin—a
"crick" in the back, a twinge of rheu-
matism, a soreness all over arising
from a cold—are all cured by outside
applications. The quickest, safest and
most certain method is Allcock a
Plaster, known the world over as a
universal remedy for pain. They never
fail, they act promptly, they are clean
and cheap. You can go right ahead
with your work while the healing pro-
cess goes on. Sixty years' use has
given them a great reputation.
Rrturn In Age to Childhood.
Attention has recently been called
to the curious fact that the shells of
certain animals, such as cephalopods,
brachipods and some bivalves, are
commonly marked by retrogressive
changes a3 age advances. "Ihe old
man returns to second childhood in
mind and body," states a well-known
scientist at Washington, "and the
shell of the cephalopod has, in old
age, however distinct and highly orna-
mental the adult, very close resell)'
blance to its own young."
Public School Pupils Best.
Figures concerning the students ma-
triculated at Cornell in the last 20
years indicate that 42 per cent, have
come from private schools and 58 per
cent, from public schools. Of private
Bchool pupils, 153 were dropped after
the first term and 111 from public
schools, and the percentage of failures
among the public school graduates is
much lower than those of private
schools. Consequently, the Cornell
faculty favors withdrawing the priv-
ilege of admission by certificate from
private schools.

Real Home of the Peanut.
Botanists have placed the home of
the peanut in Africa, but some author-
itles think it native to Brazil. Louis-
iana finds the Spanish variety—a
small, but fine nut—best adapted to
the climate of that state. The goob-
er grabbers" of Georgia and Soutn
Carolina like the small white and red
peanut of Tennessee, and each year
shows an increasing cultivation in
those states of that variety.
Assistant Attorney General to Go to
Texas to Make Investigation Into
Negro Soldiers' Conduct — Fierce
Political Battle May Result.
WASHINGTON: The sending by
the president of an assistant attorney
general into Texas to gather evidence
in the now nojed negro rioting case
Is recognized in official circles as an
open acceptance by President Roose-
velt of the challenge uttered by Sen-
ator Foraker of Ohio in the senate
just before the holiday recess.
Lest there should be any doubt as
to his intention, the president has
made it clear to his friends that he
will wage the battle he thinks the
Ohio senator is seeking and that he
will fight to the last ditch to de-
fend his recent action in discharging
the three companies of troops because
of their refusal to testify against
those of their number who, the war
department contends, "shot up" the
town of Brownsville.
Those who discussed the matter
with the president agree that they
never saw him more determined. So
sure is he of his present position that
Assistant Attorney General Purdy s
mission is to secure the evidence
against the negro troops that would
establish their guilt in court. This is
one of the points made by Senator
Foraker in his recent attack upon the
president.
The president declined to accept the
view that no man shall leave the pub-
lic service unless the evidence against
him is of such a nature as would hold
good in court.
The situation growing out of the
president's order of dismissal and
Senator Foraker's investigation reso-
lution with his speech thereon is one
which, In the matter of the possibili-
ties contained, has no parallel in the
time that Mr. Roosevelt has been
president. While there can be no
doubt that many people, in ami out
of congress, honestly and sincerely
believe that the president has done
the discharged negroes a grave injus-
tice, it is equally certain that an
element among the republican leaders
is endeavoring to use the matter to
their own political advantage and to
the detriment of the president.
Signs today point to the opening of
one of the fiercest battles that has
ever marked political life, and it is
the impression that ttie final out-
come will decide the next republican
presidential nominee.
Trainload of Coal For Sufferers.
OKLAHOMA CITY: An entire coal
train was sent through this city over
the Rock Island with "right-of-way"
privilege to the western part of the
territory, where suffering from the
coal famine has become intense.
Word from towns in the district most
affected says that sidewalks have been
torn up, fences cut up and other
' methods of last resort have been en-
forced in order to get fuel to relieve
the suffering. All efforts possible are
being made by the railroads here to
get loaded cars moved to their destina-
tion so they could be returned in the
effort to relieve the congestion.
That an article may b« good a* well
as cheap, and give entire satisfaction.
is proven by the extraordinary sale of
Defiance Starch, each package con-
taining one-third more Starch than
can be had of any other brand for the
game money.
Teachers' Books Barred.
The New York city board of educa-
tion has decided to prohibit the use of
all text books prepared by teachers
in the city's employ. This will bar
Conrade's Grammar and Borachlo s
Song Collection. Only one member
of the board voted against this action.
Never Fails.
There is one remedy, and only one
I have ever found, to cure without fail
such troubles in my family as Eczema,
Ringworm and all others of an itching
character. That remedy is Hunt's Cure.
We always uso it and it never fails.

ute of loyalty on account of the trou-
ble between the Roman church and
the French republic, which has great-

Money in Popular Song«.
According to a celebrated compos-
er, the popular song, though sneered
at by the superior, is in reality the
ambition of most composers. Thou-
sands of them, he says, "would give
their ears to write a tune that
reached the barrelorgans." And when
it has been on the organs some little
time a good many other people would
wish to dispose of their ears.

To Abolish the Cuirass.
The French ministry has decided
to abolish the cuirass. There are 13
regiments of cuirassiers In the F renf i
army. The weapon has been famous
for a hundred years, and its traditions
from Austerlitz to Worth are among
the most glorious of the French army.
The extraordinary popularity of fine
white goods this summer makes the
choice of Starch a mntter of great Im-
portance. Defiance Starch, being free
from all injurious chemicals, is the
onlv one which is safe to use on fine
fabrics. Its great strength as a si iff-
ener makes half the usual quantity of
Starch necessary, with the result of
perfect finish, equal to that when Die
goods were new.

Ex-Commissioner of Pensions Talks to
Bar Association.
OKLAHOMA CITY: The Territorial
Par association meeting was adjourned
with the annual banquet. The officers
for the next year are: Clifford T,.
Jackson. Muskogee, president: F. H.
Kellogg, South McAlester, Mcretary;
Judsre Lawrence, Guthrie, treasurer:
representatives to the American liar
association, F. H. Harris, Oklahoma
City; H. E. Asp, Guthrie; A. G. Mob-
lev, Atoka.
A committee of seven members was
selected who will present the report
of the association having to do with
judiciary proposition to the constitu-
tional convention when It reconvenes.
The recommendations of this report
will suggest some changes in the pres-
ent judiciary system. The address of
Eugene F. Ware, former commissioner
of pensions, now of Topeka, was 'lie
| feature of the meeting. He dealt with
law and lawyers, and told about the
profession as It was M<10 years ago.
Almost every legal document, he said,
now being used in the profession and
the same methods of practice were
used then as now.
Laborer Fell Two Stories.
ENID' John Prooks. a mortar car
rler employed In the construction of
the new Loewen hotel, fell from the
second story to the basement, a dis-
tance of 3n feet. He was badly In-
jured, but it Is thought he will re-
cover. „ ...
Brooks passed between the joists
of two uncovered floors In falling and
landed on fresh dirt two feet away
from a pile of Iron pipes Had he not
missed the pipes he would have been
killed.
"Since the year 1894 I have been
troubled with a very bad case of ec-
zema which I have spent hundreds of
dollars trying to cure, and I went to i
the hospital, but they failed to cure j
me, and it was getting worse all tho J
time. Five weeks ago my wife bought •
a box of Cuticirra Ointment and one
cake of Cuticura Soap, and I am
pleased to say that I am now com-
pletely cured and well. It was im-
possible for me to get employment,
as my face, head and body were cov-
ered with it. The eczema first ap-
peared on the top of my head, and it
had worked all the way around down
the back of my neck and around to my
throat, down my body and around the
hips. It Itched so I would be obliged
to scratch it, and tho flesh was raw.
i I am now all well, and I will be
| pleased to recommend the Cuticura
Remedies to all persons who wish a
Bpeedy and permanent cure of skin
; diseases." Thomas M. Rossiter, 290

fWhat JoyThey Br1ng
To Every |"Jome
as with joyous hearts and smiling faces they romp and play—when in health—and
how conducive to health the games in which they indulge, the outdoor life they
enjoy, the cleanly, regular habits they should be taught to form and the wholesome
diet of which they should partake. How tenderly their health should be preserved,
not by constant medication, but by careful avoidance of every medicine of an injuri-
ous or objectionable nature, and if at any time a remedial agent is required, to assist
nature, only those of known excellence should be used; remedies which are pure
and wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, like the pleasant laxative remedy,
Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. Syrup of Figs has
come into general favor in many millions of well informed families, whose estimate
of its quality and excellence is based upon personal knowledge and use.
Syrup of Figs has also met with the approval of physicians generally, because
they know it is wholesome, simple and gentle in its action. We inform all reputa-
ble physicians as to the medicinal principles of Syrup of Figs, obtained, by an
original method, from certain plants known to them to act most beneficially and
presented in an agreeable syrup in which the wholesome Californiar> blue figs are
used to promote the pleasant taste; therefore it is not a secret remedy and hence
v/e are free to refer to all well informed physicians, who do not approve of patent
medicines and never favor indiscriminate self-medication.
Please to remember and teach your children also that the genuine Syrup of bigs
always has the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co —plainly
printed on the front of every package and that it is for sale in bottles o. one size
only. If any dealer offers any other than the regular Fifty cent size, or having
printed thereon the name of any other company, do not accept it. If you fail to get
the genuine you will not get its beneficial effects. Every family should always have
a bottle on "hand, as it is equally beneficial for the parents and the children,
whenever a laxative remedy is required.
Have No Confidence In Gunners.
Notwithstanding some recent good
gun records on British warships the
admiralty still seems to lack confi-
dence. The plan to make a target of
tho wrecked and abandoned battleship
Montague on Lundy island has been
abandoned, for fear the gunners might
destroy a lighthouse that Is In the
