TO INVESTIGATE LEASES
Silver Cups for t-iquor
The cheapness of silver is such
that tho metal continues to invade
every branch of domestic economy.
It lias now started to supplant glass.
Even as It is, among tho many ijla'.-s-
os for table none are so varied as
those for liquors, but the latest form | improvements they
they have assumed is that of little
nilver cups, elegantly and da'ntily
fashioned. To the eye the polish is
admittedly attractive, but glass may
claim greater qualities. Then) is
little to choose in point of price.
It is not so much tho tiling itself,
a* the manner In which it is reflected
In our brain, that gives it its value.
Whilst wo are working steadily fc.f

time fulfil another which we had n«i
in view.

Indian Agent Kelsey to Go Afte"' the
Lease Grafters
MUSKOGEE: A bomb was thrown
In the camp of the agricultural lease
grafters when it was learned that In-
dian Agent Kelsey will send survey-
ors into tho Chickasaw nation to pros-
ecute lease holders under the lease
fraud act of March 3, 1905. This
moans trouble for hundreds of lease
holders in the Choctaw and Chicka-
saw nations who have been grafting
tiie ignorant allottees. The graft has
been worked principally on five-year
agricultural leases which have been
secured by getting an Indian to file
upon It. The Indians that have given
these leases have complained that the
land upon which they filed did not
have improvements upon it as repre-
sented, and that they were getting
nothing for their leases. In many
other cases where there were some
wore not nearly
of the value represented by the les-
j see. Many other leases were given in
; which (lie lessee promised to. build
new improvements upon the land
which to revert to the lessor as con-
sideration for the use of the land.
These improvements have not been
placed, and tho allottees are eom-
j plaining. All these things come un-
i der the law which authorizes the an-
nulling of leases where the considora-
i lion is inadequate.
There are hundreds of thousands
: of acres of land in Choctaw and Chick-
asaw nations under agricultural lenses
and some individual lessees ec trol
I tracts of 10,000 or 12,000 acres. Some
of these have not made the pomised
improvements, and in other cases
1 I he cash considerat ion has been
j rlduclously low and it looks as If
hundred of leases in the two nations
will be invalidated for these reasons,
j In some cases the Indian is kept in
1 I he dark as to where the land he has
leased is located and thus lias been
j deceived.
The Indian agent will send sur-
veyors into the Choctaw and Chicka-
saw nations and each individual case
where complaints arc- made will be in-
vestigated. If the lessee cannot show
that the compensation is adequate ho
will be required to take- a new lease
with adequate consideration and the
old one will be set aside. The work
will commence either at Ardmore or
Marietta and those who have wit-
tingly deraud.'l the Indian allottee
will be brought to time.

bark. Queen's root. Golden Seal root, nations of Captain
Blood root and Stono root, specially exert

for bronchitis, laryngitis, chronic coughs,

STpu don't have to take Dr. Pierce's

AWFUL PSORIASIS 35 YEARS.
Terrible Scaly Humor in Patches All
Over the Body—Skin Cracked and
Bleeding—Cured by Cuticura.
"I was afflicted with psoriasis for
thirty-five years. It was in patches
all over my body. I used three cakes
of Cuticura Soap, six boxes of Oint-
ment and two bottles of Resolvent.
In thirty days I was completely cured,
and I think permanently, as it was
about five years ago. The psoriasis
first made Its appearance in red spots,
generally forming a circle, leaving in
tho center a spot about the size of a
silver dollar of sound flesh. In a short
time the affected circle would form
a heavy dry scale of a white silvery
appearance and would gradually drop
off. To remove the entire scales by
bathing or using oil to soften them
the flesh would be perfectly raw, and
a light discharge of bloody substance
would ooze out. That scaly crust
would form again in twenty-four
hours. It was worse on my arms and
limbs, although it was la spots all
over my body, also on my scalp. If
I let the scales remain too long with-
out removing by bath or otherwise,
the skin would crack and bleed. I
suffered intense itching, worse at
nights after getting warm in bed, or
blood warm by exercise, when it
would be almost unbearable. W. M.
Chidester, Hutchinson, Kan., April 20,
1905.''
NEW HATS NEED ANCHORING
Hatpins Need to Be Driven Through
and Clinched
"There's no way to keep a hat like
that on straight except to Jab all the
pins down through the skull and fas-
ten them in the roof of the mouth
with clamps." An imported Gains-
borough for early spring wear was
being discussed yesterday, and the
little knot of women gathered round
the case laughingly agreed that the
method of anchorage suggested by one
of them was the only one to fit the
case. The new models of the build
that have arrived from abroad fairly
overshadow even the largest of the
winter hats and rum.jr has it that still
more exaggerated shapes are on their
way. Plumes wirt be larger than ever,
the milliners say, but a change in their
arrangement is noted. The striking
and often eccentric effects striven
after in many of tiie winter styles
will be avoided, and grace of line
studied instead. The hat of moderate
size will have small vogue this season.
There is to be a fancy for extremes.
As tho large shapes grow to propor-
tions never before dreamed of in the
milliners' philosophy the toques and
walking hats are growing even tinier
than those worn last year.—New
York Press.

Holds Against Dissolution
MUSKOGEE: Chitto Harjo, "Crazy
Snake," leader of the Snake faction
of the Creek Indians, has returned
from Washington, I). C., where he
headed a lobby to protest against the
dissolution of tribal governments.
"Crazy Snake's" followers are now
assembled at Hickory Ground lo hear
Ill's report, and he advises them to
refuse to accept deeds to their allot-
ments. He also urges his people to
hold out against the overtures of the
government to accept lands in sever-
alty in the final distribution of tribal
nroperty.

FOOD AND STUDY
A College Man's Experience.
"All through my high school course !
and first year in college," writes an
ambitious young man, "I struggled
with my studies on a diet of greasy,
pasty foods, being especially fond of
cakes and fried things. My system
got into a state of general disorder
and it was difficult for me to apply
myself to school work with any de- '
gree of satisfaction. 1 tried different
medicines and food preparations but
did not seem able to correct the dif-
ficulty.
"Then my attention was called to !
Grape-Nuts food and I sampled it. I '
had to do something, so I just buck- j
led down to a rigid observance of the f
directions on the package, and in
less than no lime began to feel better.
In a few weeks my strength was re- j
stored, my weight had increased, I ;
had a clearer head and felt better in
every particular. My work was sim-
ply sport lo what it was formerly. I
"My sister's health was badly run !
down and she had become so nervous !
that she could not attend to her
music. She went on Grape-Nuts and
had the same remarkable experience I
that I had. Then my brother, Frank, j
who is in the postofllcc department 1
at Washington cily and had been try- [
ing to do brain work on greasy foods,
eWkcs and all that, joined the Grape- 1
Nuts army. I showed him what it j
was and could do and from a broken- i
down condition he has developed into
a hearty and efficient man.
"Besides these I could give account j
f numbers of my fellow-students who
have mado visible Improvement men-
tally and physicully by the use of
this food." Name given by I'ostum
Co., Rattle Creek, Mich.
There's a reason. Read the little
book, "The Road to Welville," in
pkgs.
Not Disappointed This Time.
"1 have been often disappointed in
the use of some widely advertised rem-
edy, claiming to cure this or that
trouble. Nevertheless, on the strength
of one of the testimonial letters pub-
lished, I decided to try a box of Hunt's
Cure. My trouble was eczema of the
lower limbs, from which I long suf-
fered. One box cured me. 1 have had
a pleasant, peaceful summer, thanks
to Hunt's Cure."
