ne Bartlesville woman who sought
to ascertain what ber Christmas pres-
ent cost learned that It cost more
than her husband said It did. The
merchant was onto her trick and
fooled her and now she thinks her
husband told her the lesser price for
fear she would say ho was too ex-
travagant and she is happy. That
merchant Is a Jewel.—Bartlesville En-
terprise.
We have rosldlng in the southern
siiburbs of our town a young man
who, if reports are true, is wonder-
fully and fearfully made. His doctor
said be had an Iron constitution; his
friends said ho had nerves of steel;
his uncle said he had a wooden bead;
the girls Bald he had a heart of
Btoue; his enemies declared that there
was more brass about him than any-
thing else; others declared he had
lota of sand, while his admirers de-
clared ho was all wool and a yard
wide.—El'ls County Capital.

The Ralston Independent is a new
venture in the newspaper field. T. E.
Bryant is the editor and publisher and
he will give the people of Ralston a
live paper If they will support it.
Ralston Is too good a town to be
wtlhout a newspaper, but it requires
more than hot air and good wishes to
keep a paper alive, so If the Ralston-
ltes do not want the Independent to
go the way of Its predecessor, they
would do well to come alive and give
it decent support.—Blackburn News.
Commissioner of Public Safety W.
P. Murphy of Sapulpa finds out that
ho is a literary man. In a statement
the other night in regard to other
matters Mr. Murphy said: "A number
of ladles In Sapulpa each represent-
ing a different woman's club, have
appearod at my office to proteBt
against a show that Is going to be
put on here called 'Two Weeks or
Three Weeks,' I don't remember
Which. The ladles allege that it Is
bad, and I am going to read the book
to soe for myself. If It is as bad aa
the ladles represent It to be it will
not bo put on. As commissioner of
public safety my duties are defined by
my title and the safety of the chil-
dren, In whom the mothers are in-
terested, is surely a part of my du-
ties."

There is at least one thing can be
wrltteu on Doud's eyitaph when he
passes to the great beyond where
editorial and other strife will cease.
It is, "He was a stayer to the end."—

The chestnut tree is exceedingly

Of all the mouopilU the one we
most detest Is he who monopolizes
conversation and prevents us from
getting In one word.
At last we have something to be
really thankful for. Fashion has de-
creed that the "rampant rat" and the
"bulging bun" must go.
It Will require more than one coat
of whitewash to renovate some poli-
ticians. Indeed, some of them need a
disinfectant added to the lime.
Wiseacres advise us not to go to
extremes; but how can we comb our

ing without going to extremes?

In last week's issue of the Long-
dale News Editor Doud "regrets" in
heartfelt tones the death of his com-
petitor, the Longdale Times. George's
regrets are on the same order as the
Irishman in resculty; ths Jew when
ho asked him If he believed In the
Savior and when he answered "yes"
he so.ised him under, with the expres-
sion, "Die while ye are In grace." It

MARK TWAIN AS A POET.
The following is said to have been
written by Mark Twain and publish-
ed in California about 1864:
He DoBe His Level Best.
Was he a mining on the flat—
He done It with a test;
Was ho a leading of the choir—
He done bis level best.
If he'd a regular task to do,
He never too Imo rest;
Or if 'twas off and on—the same—
He done bis level best
If he was preaching on his beat,
He'd tramp from East to West,
And North to South—in cold and
heat-
He done bis level best.
He'd curse and sing and howl and
pray,
And dance and drink and Jest,
And lie and steal—all one to him—
He done his level beBt.
