Yep, Me and Holmes were
sworn in as mayor Monday night.
Mr. Mayor, I think I saw a
bootlegger yesterday morning.
The good roads movement is
now apparently at a stand still,
and while there is nothing doing
why wouldn’t it be a good plan
to have a meeting and get a re-
port from the different commit-
tees? Or, better still, why not
have a complete report published?
The farmers are interested and
would like to know how the work
has progressed.
Two members of the law and
order league were out fishing
last week, and after partaking
pretty freely of the "flowing
bowl" one <>f them started down
to the river to see about the
hooks, and as he was a little un-
steady, the other one said:
"Come back here, you scoun-
drel; if you fall in I can’t get
you out.’’ Of course he didn’t
say ‘‘scoundrel,” but that’s as
near the word used as would
look well in print.
Won’t Slight a Good Friend
"If ever I need a cough med-
icine again I know what to get,"
declares Mrs. A. L. Alley, of
Beals, Me., "for, after using ten
bottles of Dr. King’s New Dis-
covery, and seeing its excellent
results in my own family and
others, I am convinced it is the
best medicine made for coughs,
colds and lung trouble.’’ Every
one who tries it feels just that
way. Relief is felt at once and
its quick cure surprises you. For
bronchitis, asthma, hemorrhage,
croup, la grippe, sore throat,
pain in chest or lungs it’s su-
preme. 50c or $1.00. Trial bot-
tle free. Guaranteed by Rogers
Drug Store.

If we don’t get some rain
many farmers think they will
have to plant their corn.
Mrs. J. R. Smith, Mrs. H. A.
Cooksey and Mrs. Alex Lespenee
spent last Sunday with Mrs. Ed
Cooksey.
Charles Stoner and W. C.
Frazee went to Oklahoma City
to serve on the federal grand
jury.
Jack Scott and Ed Cooksey
delivered their fat hogs to the
Geary market Saturday.
Isaac Nichols and wife made a
business trip to Geary.
The first official act of the new
administration was to take the
city printing away from us, and
as it had been worth $29 in ten
months you can see what a terri-
ble (?) blow it was. The old
council gave both papers a bid
for the work, and sealed bids
were submitted. The Bulletin
got the work, both bids being
the same. We did not expect to
get the contract, because we did
not have a single friend among
the city officials. We may re-
cover from the blow, but we may
never look like anything again.
But, what was the use of iuh
precipitate action? Ifsealedbds
had been called for it might have
resulted in a saving of several dol-
lars to the city, and not have dis-
played the vindictiveness of at
J. M. Scott our new road
boss, hustled out sever-
al hands and put the oride at the
Troxell Hill just east of his farm.
Lotus Bush and wife spent
spent Saturday mgnt in Geary.

shows how to remain young. “I
feel just like a 16-year-old boy,’’
he writes, “after taking six bot-
tles of Electric Bitters. For
30 years kidney trouble made life
a burden, but the first bottle of
this wonderful medicine con-
vinced me I had found the great-
est cure oil earth.” They’re a
godsend to weak, sickly, run

LARGE DEMAND FOR VANADIUM.
Metal a Curiosity Ten Years Ago Now
Used by the Ton.
A few years asro the rare metal va-
nadium was scarcely mentioned out-
Blde of classes In chemistry; now Its
uses are so various that metallurgists
have spent much time in devising bet-
ter and cheaper ways of extracting It
from its ores.
Probably Its most Important use is
as a component of steel, to which it
Imparts a wonderful resistance. Va-
nadium steel appears to owe its qual-
ities partly to the fact that vanadium
relieves the steel of its oxygen and
nitrogen, which weakens It.
Resides this use, vanadium is used
to prepare indelible Inks, in combina-
tion with tannin and alkalies; for the
oxidation of aniline In making aniline
black; to make sulphuric acid by the
oxidation of sulphurous acid and In the
manufacture of various metallic pig-
ments.
It also serves as a coloring agent for
ceramics and glassware, is a compon-
ent of a newly discovered developer
used In photography and has been em-
ployed In medicine for the treatment
of tuberculosis. •
Between 50 and 75 tons yearly are
now used, and It Is worth about $4 a
pound.
DIED WITH HIS OLD PLAYMATE.
Mongrel Bulldog’s Heart Broken at
Companion’s Demise.
Joseph Friedman tells this to the
New York Press In all seriousness:
“In our neighborhood, One Hundred
and Forty-third street and Lenox ave-
nue, an Italian Ice and ccal peddler
lost an aged horse, whose cons’ant
companion nnd playmate was a small
mongrel bulldog. A few hours after
the horse died we noticed tl at the dog
began to look dopey. He Just moped
around, api arentiy having lost In-
terest In life. We saw him go to the
old horse, stretch his body across the
lafter’s neck, and die there. The nu-
merous drivers who congregate around
this point, all rough, but good natured
fellows, noticed the positions of the
two dead animals, and many a head
was suddenly turned the other way.
There wore peculiar fits of coughing,
and some of the boys were rubbing
Ihelr checks with tbe backs of their
hands. In lieu of handkerchiefs. Some
cursed at their teams and disappeared
as quickly as possible. I honestly be-
lieve that poor little mongrel died of a
broken heart.”
Cow Had Dark Brown Taste.
Dsve Leahy has located a cow in
Wichita that goes on a spree. The
animal was tied to an apple tree for
half a day. Lying around in tbe grass
were s lot of wlndfallen apples, and
most of them were overripe. She pro-
ceeded to consume all of tbe apples
that the length of tbe rope and her
neck would permiL In the afternoon
the owner of tbe cirw. a Mr. Skinner,
went to the orchard1 to bring her
home, and found her lying on the
K ound, apparently dead to the world,
alie was breathing heavily and snor-
iug. Persistent jabs In tbe riba failed
to arouse her, so a veterinary was
called. Af'.sr looking her over the
doctor gave this diagnosis: “Tao cow,
sir, is very, very drunk.” She had
eaten too many of the tormented over-
ripe apples. Medicine was applied,
and her frequent trips to the water
trough later convinced the owner that
she was suffering from “that dark
brown taste ”—Kansas City Journal.
