By Indian Mothers.
The itinerary of a party of officials
making payments to Indians in Indian
Territory, although a business propo-
sition on the part of the officials and
accepted as a matter of course by the
stoical nature of the Red men, is at-
tended with many humorous incidents
which occur at nearly every town vis-
ited. The paying party also meets
with strange characters and unusual
experiences not duplicated except on
such a mission.

some amusing and others instructive.
The quiet cunning of the Indian tu im'
finds Illustration in the way a r.um ber
of Chickasaw women evaded the r-ule
which requires each applicant (or a
payment to wait until his or her num-
ber is called. In telling t|^e story, Air,
Wisdom said: "I looked T1UI over tbe
crowd that was waiting in front of tbe
paying station, and I believe thatlhere
were at least 500 women in.lb^cro wd,
200 of them with babies in arms. Tbe
babies were Equalling at tbe lops of
their little voices and the hubub vias
simply distracting.
"I took pity upon the women with
crying babies and gave tbem tbaeir
checks first regarrllee<i of the Dumfc erb
they held. But after 1 had proceeded
for some time 1 discovered that I was
not getting rid of any of ti 3 btblemnd
that the wailing was in no wise dlnoin-

Beginning of Bright's Disease.
This Stage of the Disease Leaves
tbe Victim Only a Fighting
Chance for Life.
When the liver becomcs torpid. It
throws upon the kidneys extra work in
keeping the body free from impurities.
This extra work they will perform for a
time without serious disturbance, for
they are tough organs, but at last the
strain becomes too heavy, they are
weakened and disordered, and unless
the liver is promptly stimulated they
break down and the more serious trouble
begins. Wlien this stage is reached the
\aluable liver regulating and kidney
strengthening properties of Prickly Ash
Bitters are badly needed. It 13 safe to
say that no one would ever die of Bright's
Disease if he would apply this remedy
at this critical time. Unfortunately,
however, the kidneys do not at first
manifest any decided symptoms. The
victim is conscious that something is
wrong, but fails to apply a remedy for
it, so he struggles on until the disease
aorne day prostrates him completely,
meanwhile the deadly work of destruc-
tion goes on steadily in his vital organs.
The kidneys being weakened and pow-
erless are no longer able o*trart the
urea and uric acid from the blood, so it
goes back into the system and gradually
decays changing to uric acid poison
r.hich extends its malignant influence
to every part of the body. The albumen
which should nourish the system passes
unarrested through the liver and kidneys
and cocapes with the urine, so the pa-
tient's strength fails for want of food.
At this point the disease takes on a
decided character, dropsy sets in and
the signs of uraemic poisoning rapidly
appear. The importance of checking
the ravages of the disease at the earliest
possible moment cannot be ovcr-esti-
mated. When the trouble is confined to
the liver it is bad enough, but when the
kidneys break down it at once becomes
a life and death struggle with the cer-
tainty that death will win the race unless
nature is helped in its effort to restore
health. The prudent and best course is
to resort to the use of Prickly Ash Bitters
on the first signs of disorder in the liver.
Warning symptoms are plentiful and
are first noticed when the stomach fails
to digest food properly. The victim be-
comes bilious, languid, constipated and
suffers from indigestion, headache, diz-
ziness, foul breath and flatulence. A
that they were seeing to it that the In-
fants did not stop crying. In this way
they were getting their money ahead of
others, and the baby "racket" seecned

itness of things overcame my desire to

Raw Oysters Healthful.

o the loss of many golden ctgs, as it l 
eared has happened in the raw oyatef
luslness, it is the fault of a few of the
inorant or unscrupulous, and theo;'«-
'rmen must find their way out of the
ifllculty as best they can. The public

Yellow Diamonds Favored.

pure white, old mine diamonds, but the

women seem to wear diamonds simply
as a method of advertising their tiu -
b&ndi' success in business It may be
useless to anathematize the diamond
engagement ring, which seems to la are
such a firm hold upon the conventional
mind that the troth  ccms hardly bind-

Around the pearl, on the other hand,
