DEMOCRAT TWICE-A-WEEK CONSTITUTION-
This newspaper has always had the largest circulation of anv
newspaper in Comanche county, and it has stood pre-eminentiv
as the one county paper the rural population depended upon. The
change of the weekly edition to a Twice-a-Week edition has
grea.ly increased the popularity of the Constitution-Democrat.
Y ou can talk to the farmers twice as often and if there is anv
news about your business worth telling let them receive it before
it becomes stale. Advertising is nothing more nor less than the
news of ones business.
It costs more per inch to advertise in the Constitution-Demo-
crat than it does in papers of less circulation, but then it is worth
more and when you figure the price per inch per thousand circu-
lation—the only correct basis, space in the Constitution-Democrat
is the cheapest.
There is no question about results, if you have something to
advertise and use either the Daily or Twice-a-Week edition of
this newspaper.

thinks of is going somewhere and hav.
•ug a good time! She's never home.
Perhaps, though, Dick Reamy is so
proud of her being popular that ho
doesn't care if his home 1b always top-
sy-turvy."
"You're Just about as popular as
Gertrude Reamy!" declared the young
married woman's husband. "And you
manage to keep house, too!"
"Oh, my, no, Jack!" cald the young
married woman, shaking her head.
"She goes out lots more than I do!
And clothes! Well, all I have to say
Is I don't see how Dick stands It! I
should think she would bankrupt him!
And she doesn't seem to care how wor-
ried he Is. I hope I think more of my
! husband than that!"
| "You've a very different disposi-
tion," said her husband. "It's funny
the kind of girls some men pick out
to marry! Oertrude may be pretty,
but—well, between you and me, Dick
threw himself away!"
"My!" bhlvered the young married
woman. "I hope nobody says that
about you! It would make me feel
perfectly dreadful! I was over at Ger-
trude's to-day. All she thinks about
is clothes. She had them all out show-
ing me. I said: How on earth do you
ever wear them out?' She Just laughed
and said she didn't; that when she
was tired of a dress she gave it away.
You hardly ever see her in the same
dress more than live or si* times. She
has simply heaus of tailor suits in a
year. Goodness—when I get a tailor
suit I make it do two seasons!'
"And look exactly as well as Ger-
trude!" said her husband.
"Oh, I don't know," said the young
married woman. "Of course, one can't
look always well groomed when one
wears a suit to death. But I'm Just as
happy. I wish you could see the ar-
ray of evening dresses that girl showed
me. It looked like dozens. And such
expensive ones! Why, I thought I
was doing well to have two this win-
ter."
"I like (he pink on* on you," said
her husband.
"Do you, dear?" asked the young
married woman. "It's getting pretty
shabby to wear anywhere that counts.
I have to mend It whenever I take it
out. But nobody would notice. And
the green chiffon certainly does look
draggled. The Reamys are going to
Fredericks' ball, too. Next week, you
know. You must have your dress suit
pressed—don't forget It. I want my
husband to loo1 as handsome as any
one there. Yes, you are, too—you
know it!
"With all the evening gowns she a!
ready has Gertrude told me she is hav-
ing a new one made for this dance!
Think of It! Such extravagance makes
me shiver! It's to be the most gorge-
ous thing of satin and gold lace and
she has a wreath of gold roses for her
hair. And gold slippers. Nobody else
will be seen at that dance but Gertrude
when she gets on that array. Well, It
doesn't matter to me If I'm not a belle
—I'm Just as happy so long as you
think I'm all right!"
"Gertrude Reamy Isn't In It a minute
with you!" declared the young mar-
ried woman's husband. "There'll be no
outshining you! Say, why don't you
get a new gown for the Fredericks'
dance yourself?"
"Why. Jack!" cried the young mar-
ried woman, "I don't need it! Really!
Nobody'll know my pink one is mend-
ed! I couldn't think of spending the
money when you are so cramped—"
"Nonsense!" Insisted the young man
firmly. "I'm not quite broke yet! You
go down to-morrow and buy you a
dress that'll knock the spots off Ger-
trude's! I mean It!"
"Why, Jack!" cried the young mar-
ried woman. "How perfectly lovely! I
never dreamed of such a thing!"—Chi-

The Freedom of the Mind.
It is of consequence that the notion
of freedom be within us. It does
make a difference. Ho* many pass
through life oppressed by the Idea
that we are slaves, dominated by en-
vironment and influences that are
fixed, and are no different from the In-
animate things about us. It makes
a difference If we believe ourselves
not slaves to circumstances, not with
characters inevitably fixed, and can
j look Into the possibilities of the fu-
ture and draw Btrengdi from them.
We may then "be masters of life's
