FEDERAL AID IS ASSURED
Hard-Surfaced Road Systems To Be
Built; Action Is Awaited.
Wagoner. Okla.—Wagoner County
Is to receive $47,000 federal aid in
its road building program, according
to a letter received by C II Weldon,
chairman of the board of county coin
mlssioners. Of this amount $25,000
will go to Creek township and $22,000
to Shannon township.
Shannon is to receive this feder-
al aid. as the bonds which were voted
by that township last fall have been
sold and the money received. There
whs some question as to whether
Creek township may receive this fed-
eral aid. because of the suit recently
filed by the Taxpayers' league against
the county commissioners, asking the
court to declare the bond election il-
legal. The first hearing will be held
about March 15.

Beautiful walls! Harmonies never before imagined! A
blending of tints and tones, a magic interweaving of
colors which will transform your walls into a rich
fabric unsurpassed in its charm and cheerfulness—and
at a cost well within your means.
ANY good decorator can do the work-nearly all stores dealing in
L paints can supply the material—anyone can now afford to have
Tiffanized walls formerly the exclusive privilege of the very wealthy.
Instead of Kalsomine or Wall Paper
AH that is necessary is just Alabastine, the same nationally accepted wall tint which for forty year*
has been used in homes, apartments, offices and public buildings of all kinds the same sanitary,
durable, economical and artistic wail coating sold by the best stores and used by the best decorators.
With Alabastine, regularly applied you get the exact color to match your rugs and draperies. 1 hrough
the Alablstine-Opaline-Process you obtain a combination of colors most pleasing and satisfactory.
Before decorating ask to see samples of the Alabastmc-Opaline-Process.

The commander of the German sub-
marine that sank the Lusltania is now
at the bottom of the seu, according to
a story which has reached American

allegiance to the l'araguan republic.
Friends in the shipping world secured
for him tiie command of a Puraguau

done in the old days. So they passed
hiin around for a beating, and then

taste of "California Fig Syrup." If the

hours you can see for yourself how
thoroughly It works all the constipa-
tion poison, sour bile and waste out of
the bowels, and you have a well, play-
ful child again.
Millions of mothers keep "California
Fig Syrup" handy. They know a tea-
spoonful today saves a sick chilli to-
morrow. Ask your druggist for genu-
ine "California Fig Syrup" which has
directions for babies and children of
all ages printed on bottle. Mother!
You must say "California" or you may
get an imitation tiy syrup.—Advertise-

FIFTY YEARS AGO
A young man who practiced medicine

was called In consultation In many
towns and cities because of his suc-
cess in the treatment of disease. This

his mind to place some of his medi-
cines before the public, and moving to
Buffalo, N. Y.. put up what he called — ■ ■
his "Favorite Preacrlptlon." and placed 1 trjp taking in all the farming district
ft with the druggists in every state.
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription has
long been recognized as a tonic for dis-
eases peculiar to womankind. After suf-
fering pain, feeling nervous, dizzy, weak
and dragged-down by weaknesses of
her sex—a woman is quickly restored
to health by its use. Thousands of
women testify that Dr. Pierce's Favor-
ite Prescription has entirely eradicated
their distressing ailments.
More recently that wonderful discov-
ery of Dr. Pierce's, called An-urlc (for
kidneys and backache), has been suc-
cessfully used by many thousands who
write Dr. Pierce of the benefits re-
ceived—that their backache, rheuma-
tism. and other symptoms of uric acid
deposits In Joints or muscles have been
completely conquered by its nse.

Flfty thousand fratics' worth of pet
dogs were temporarily ruined by Mar-
shal Foch's wild cat on the voyage to
France. When the marshal, as guest j
of the American Legion, had picked
up Theodora from an admiring friend,
he hud little reckoned what devasta-
tion was In store.
Theodora was placed In th® kennel
room atop the liner Paris, uixter care
of the ship's butcher, who acted as
animal valet for the trip. Believing
that ttie fluffy Pekinese, and poodles,
and Mexican halrlesses that shared
her compartment did not represent,
like herself, the true red-blooded pi ,
oneering spirit of America. Theodora j
lay quietly iu her cell and exuded the
aroma peculiar to wildcats. When the
Paris touched the shores of France, j
the valet handed the pet dogs around
to the group of daintily-scented mad
amolselles and was greeted with loud
shrieks.
