The Oklahoma farmers are giving
their undivided attention to their farm
work this year. They are beginning
to realize that the agriculturists in this
country are classed with the best and

in their farm work than usual. Farm-

any good, therefore, that 1 can do,
let me do It now ; let me not neglect
It, nor defer It. for 1 shall not pass

unostentatious as her life. Miss Gould's
Income is over $500,000 a year, and of
this she spends twenty times as much
upon charity as upon herself.
Miss Gould is a studious woman. She

fart that she has chosen every book

ogist once. It was when we were
young and innocent, before our heart .
had been hardened by coming in con-
tact with newspaper men and learning
to lie and dodge creditors. Well, he ran
hls fingers, which were none of the,"
cleanest, through our flowing locks and
fingered our bumps. The humps are
there yet, hut the flowing locks have
departed. Before he began we asked
him hls price for examination He said
It depended on the size of a man's
brain. If it was a good. big. healthy
brain the charge was $1, hut where
the brain was prominent by its absence
the charge would lie only 25 cants. He
(old us some things that were very
true. He said we were fond of work.
Now that was correct. We always liked
work so well that we allowed it to pile
up around us Just for company. We
never did any for fear we would be*,
without It. He also said we were gen-',
erous. True again. We never gave
our wives a dime and then flung it up
to her, and we never took a penny out
of (be contribution basket at churrtl
when it was tuken up for the benefit
of the needy. -He said he could tell us
all about our ancestry and would do so
for an extra quarter, but we refused,
as the least said about our ancestry
the better for all concerned. True,
some of our ancestry had a family
tree, but it was not the kind of a
tree that a man would be proud of or,
with tears, ask the woodman to spare.
We know a good many people whosel
ancestors had that kind of a tree, and (
If they had their just deserts they
would be up the same tree. There is
nut the least doubt in our mind that
the phrenologist is a benefactor to hls
race and fills a niche In life as well as
