Aftei lihtening to an address m
sood road* by Governor Haskell the
state meeting of the township trus-
tees adjourned their Hessian today.
The sesgiou was hel.l Jn the ban-
quet room of the Lae-Hucklns hotel.
Although it was to talk over all town-
ship matters the meeting was in real
ity a good roads convention, that j
topic being abont the only one dis-
cussed.
The concensus of opinion was that]
a tew good roads would be better than j
a lot of poor ones and that no more
woodtHi bridges be built as they wear I
.nit too easily and nre very expensive.
Tiu tees believe that road overseers
thould be paid more thau two dollars
n day p.s they claim good men can't
be procured for that price. The pres-
ent tax of three mills for roads was
deemed insufficient and as it Is diffi-
cult to get the people to vote bond
Usues the legislature will be uiemorul-
ized to raise the levy for road and
bridge purposes above the present lim-
it.
F. O. Brown of Red Oak was made
president of the association; .T. S.
Wylie of Oklahoma City, vice presi-
■ lent and I M. Burch of Atoka, secre-
tary and treasurer.

OHIO ATTORNEY
SEES A VICTORY
FOR DEMOCRATS
George W Riser, of Ottawa, Ohio,
caller at the executive office today,
says the republican situation in tho
Buckeye state is In a tangle.
'Ohio," he said, "is a republican
state, but the party leaders cannot
decide on a candidate for governor,
whether it will be a standpatter like
Nick Longworth or an insurgent like
James Garfield. No matter which
nian is nominated there will be a
split in the rauks between the pro-
gressives and the reactionaries.
"As a result the democrats will
probably elect Judson Harmon gover-
nor. And If Harmon is chosen gov-
ernor then chances are the democrats
of the country will nominate him for
president two years from now. lie
seems to be the strongest man avail-
able."
Mr. Rlsser Is an attorney and an old
time friend of Governor Haskell, both
coming from the same town.

Grand Junction, Colo., .July IS.—
Starvation is the remedy for all bodily
ill.-. according to William Herbert, a.
Newark. X. J , resilient wbo came to
the (irand Valley to die last summer,
and who has entirely recovered his
health by going without food of any
kind for twenty-six days.
Herbert was a sufferer for fifteen
years from chronic rheumatism at his
old home, and after trying hundreds
of remedies was finally ordered to
Colorado to die.
"1 had ofteu vend of fasting as a
cure for bodily ills, and when 1 found
nothing would help me, and that 1
would die anyway, decided to try It,'
said Herbert today "For six days I
did not taste anything except an or-
casional glass of water. Then I be-
came so feehlc I had to take to my
bed On the eighth day 1 was so
weak that 1 could not move. After
the I hird day I lost all my appetite
and did not crave food of any kind
and in all my fasting I had no desire
to partake of food of any kind 1 did
no; feel hungry until the twenty-fifth
,dav when 1 took a little letnon juice.
The next day 1 tried cherry Juice and
a few cherries.
After 1 had been In bed ten days I
began to feel better and got up again,
| although I was st ill very weak. My
rheumatism was beginning to leave
me however, and I kept gaining
strength, although I had lost more
than forty pounds in weight. At the
end of the twenty-sixth day. when I
began taking a little lemon juice, and
fr m now on expect to eat—but spar-
i"The whole trouble with the Amerl-
i can people is that they eat too much,
i Thai is the cause of most of our ail-
j ment at the present time. If instead
1 of doping with medicines when peo-
ple feel bad they would not eat any-
thing tor three or four days, and give
i be system a chance to right itself,
thev would soon recover. 1 have nev-
er felt better in my life than right
I now. and believe that in a couple of
months I will be strong enough to
| whip Johnson.
' Herbert has been living in a little
cottage on ITte avenue since coming
here. His wife and two children are
with him.

quale facilities" in the way of local
trains, it could not be compelled to
stop Its through Interstate trains.

the Santa Fe railway that the c.'n: i
pany cannot sustain an appeal wher-i
the facilities, traffic schedule or con-
venience of the road are not affec ted, j
The case of G. L. Newburn against
the Hock Island was reversed and re-
manded. Newburn sued the road for
damages becauue a conductor put him
off a train on account of his return
ticket coupon not being signed. He
declared lie had not been asked to
sign it and such was not the custom
even though there is a place 011 the
ticket for th< signature of the pur
chaser and a witness. Railroad em-
ployer; swore they did not sec him
on the train.

ciding in the case of Judge P. W.
Gordon of Hughes county that such
labors were • no* in his regular line
of duties.

GIRLS ARE USED
AS PLOW HORSES
Norfolk, Wj„ July 13.- if you were
a young girl, around l«i. how would
you like to be hitched like a horse
to a garden plow and be compelled
to drag the plow across the field and
back again night rrter night?
That's what two Norfolk girls are
doing these hot nights. Three daugh-
ters of a market gardener living north
of the city limits near the St. Paul
(ierman Lutheran church, are made
to plow the field .1! ni^lit, one of
them at the handles, with two of
them drawing it, bending forward
with alt their might to drag the heavy
plow as it digs into the soil.
During the day the girls sell gar
den truck, from house 1G tiouse. go-
ing into the plow business when they
get home after the day's work up
town in the broiling sun.

INSTRUCTOR DECLARES WARFIELD AGAIN SAYS
SEX EQUALITY A MYTH HE'LL PLAY SHYLOCK
OFFICIALS TO INVESTIGATE.
Washington, July 13.—In a confer-
ence held at the "summer capital,"
it was decided that Attorney General
Wickersham and Secretary Nagel of:
the department of commerce and la-
bor should make a trip to Alaska to
look into the cause of the bitter fac-
tional fights that have been waged
there for years.
Wellesley, Mass., July 13. Profes-
sor Mary A. Wilcox, instructor in
zoology at Wellesley college, declares
the equality of sexes is a myth. It
is not enough, she adds that boys and
girls are brought up together, clothed
in the same costumes and play tho
same games, but person1' outside the
home should recognize no sex condi-
tions to make such equality success-
ful.
The acceptance of these conditions
while feasible as a theory, she ibe-
lieves impracticable.
CENTENARIAN DIES
New Orleans, July 13.—Mrs. Sarah
Murptfy Robieu, 100. whose father was
helped by Aaron Burr to come to this
city in 183-', died Tuesday.
New York, July 13.—"It. Is a cer-
tainty that I shall play Shylock," said
David Warfield. "Mr. Belasco is fin-
ishing up the new play for me, and
I'll appear in It this season. After
that I shall make a tour on the road.
Then comes Shylock." \
Mr. Warfield asked how he would
play the part. " The Merchant of
Venice," he said, "is a comedy. No,
the lines may not sound funny, but
comedy is not necessarily a lot of
puns and horseplay, red noses ami
wig*. True comedy is not so much
in words and lines as in situations.
In comedy there may be a background
of feeling. The "Music Master' is
comedy, but there in the feeling, tho
heart interest, in the play, too."
FAIL TO COMPROMISE
VANDERBILT TROUBLE
Nashville, Tcnn., July 13.—Compro-
mise has been rejected by the college
of bishops of the M. E. church, south,
lelative to the difference (between |
I them and the board of trustees of

BOUT EATIN'.
It's funny that when there's snow on
the ground, and the wind blows I
awful cold,
And the ice man doesn't come 'round
at all, 'nd soda pop isn't sold j
' Aud the "coppers" wear overcoats
long 'nd thick, 'nd walk real
spry on their beat—
That there's nothln' in all the world1
so good as havin' some more to!

Hut-
When the sun shines hot 'nd the pave

And the drug store man sells lots of j
things that fuzz and fuzz and

Aud the skyscrapers wobble like flag
poles high in the wiggly w aves j
of heat—
Why then's when you feel like there's!
lots of things you'd rather do!

FOUR BENEFITS
AT THE PRICE OF ONE
Competition has made it expedient for life insurance companies to grant privileges
under their policies which were denied policy holders for a great many years.
But it is not until quite recently that any company has granted more than one
benefit, viz: The face of the policy in the event of death, or at the end of the endow-
ment period. At the rates charged, the companies could afford to be more liberal
in the granting of benefits, but few have seen fit to do so.
If you are curious to know why The Oklahoma National Life Insurance Company
has met with such remarkable success in procuring business since it was launched oil
January loth of the present year, we will tell you that it is largely because its policies
grant four benefits for the price of the one granted by other companies. The priv-
ileges given the policy holders are the same as those contained in the most liberal
contracts of life insurance ever issued.
This is why solicitors find it so easy to sell the Perfect Protection Policy of the Okla-
homa National, and why they are making money, therefore, happy and enthusiastic.
Let us tell you more about our Company and its policy contracts.
Being a new Company that is branching out rapidly, we always have an opening for
live young men who desire to enter the life insurance profession, or for experienced
field men.
