THE SHORTEST DAY.
Today Is
the Shortest
Vear 1904.
Day of the
According to the government's horo-
logical computations today is • th
shortest day of the year. According
to ancient text books on astronomy
yesterday should have been the year
shortest day. But the government in-
sists that today will be one minute
and several seconds shorter than yes-
terday.
Today the sun will shine for nine
hours and twenty-seven minutes. On
the longest day of the year, June 20.
on which all authorities agree, the sun
generally shines for fifteen hours less
a few minutes. Last year on the
shortest day the sun was in evidence
nine hours and twenty-five minutes.
The Harmon Case.
Another chapter in the Harmon
case will be writen in all irobaljJIUy
soon. It is rumored that all the par
ties who attempted to defraud the .old
man out of his farm, will he prose-
cuted criminally without waiting for
the grand jury to convene. Th
tution of the land ought not to save
the guilty parties There will no
doubt be sensational developments
within the next few days

BURN WASTE PAPER.
An Ordinance Prohibits Throwing It
Into the Streets. .
The attention of "citizens of El Reno
is called to the fact that there is an
ordinance which prohibits throwing
paper into the streets. A few months
ago several business men wen arrest-
ed and fined for violating this ordii
ance, and the police force say that
i)lher arrests will he made unless peo-
H^ple pay strict attention to it. The
proper way is to burn waste paper.

Help for Mothers
Any woman who is suffering disordered
menstruation, bearing down pains, nervous-
ness, or whose life is made desolate by
barrenness, can have the same relief Mrs-
Vincent secured, by taking Wine of Cardui
in the privacy of her home. No physician's
treatment necessary. This pure Wine com-
mends itself to every suffering woman.
Wi'.l you go to your drugg;st today ana
secure the same relief Mrs. Vincent writes
about? When the stomach, bowels or
liver are affected, Thedford's Black-Draught should be used.

mingling of light hu-
mor and touching pathos. The scenes
are laid mostly in Providence, and
the story conc ins a charming Amer-

that of an ancient French family who,
in their secluded corner of the world,
have all their lives waited loyally
and usquestionhigly for the day when
rtie heir of the House of Bourbon
should return to his own and sit upon
the throne of France.
George Barr McCutcheon, whose
"Graustark" swept him into promi-
nence on the wave of poplar favor,
has \yritten °a long short story
for the January Smart Set*which will
even more firmly establish his repu-
tation as a writer of fiction. In "The
Laurel Wreath" Gustav Kobbe con-
tributes a story which will be instant
in its appeal, especially to those who
know the operatic stage. "Claude
Fitz-0Maurice, Bad Man," by William
R. Lighton, is a bree/.y tale of the
west whose humor and human natura
win the reader at the start. Other
excellent stories, the merit of which
is as diverse as it is pronounced, are

"Stm^ weeks age during the seven

self contracted severe colds which de-
veloped into the worst kind of la
grippe with afl its miserable symp-1
tems," says Mr. J. S. Eglesten of
Maple Landing, la. "Knees and joints
aching, muscles sore.^head stopped up j

spells of chills and T« ver. We began j
using Chamberlain's* Cough Remedy,
aiding the same with a dose of Cham

knocked out the grip." These Tablets
promote a healthy action of. the bow-

4 Remedy That No One Is
Afraid To Take.
Dr. Thacher's Liver and Blood Syrup'
las been used in thousands of homes for |
ifty-two years with perfect confidence
md the most remarkable results.
The great success of thi9 remedy is due
;o the faet that its formula (which con-
lists of Buchu, Hydrangea, Mandrake,
Vellow Dock, Dandelion, Sarsaparilla,
Gentian, Senna and Iodide of Potassium)
las been freely published. ft
Doctors and Druggists everywhere do
lot hesitate to recommend a preparation
nrhich they know contains the c best-
m wn remedies for correcting all irreg-
ularities of the Liver, Kidneys or Blood,
uid the diseases caused by the failure of
hese functions to perforin their proper
vork.
Thousands of sick ones to whom life
las been a burden have written grateful
etters that others might profit by their
