DAILY DIET HINTS
By DR T X ALLEN
Food Specialist
AVOID TOO MUCH VARIETY
Mixing foods indiscriminately
Is next to hurried eatng which
meant over-eating the most pro-
lific cause of dietetic troubles A
healthy child (which la rarer
than we suppose) will select one
article of food and satisfy the
appetite on that the stomach
will do the same and so diges-
tion will be undisturbed Applet
digest In an hour pork In four
tha pork Is not ready to leave
the stomach when the apples
should there Is a conflict which
a person of weak digestion can
feel and which affects the strong-
est Some foods are especially
Inharmonious no two are per-
fectly harmonious
It hat been shown that the aye-
tern secretes the particular kind
of digestive Juice which each
food requires Mixtures must
therefore be Inharmonious It
Is largely for this reason that
nutrition la best maintained on a
single article of food like milk
or wheat which contains all the
elements of nutrition — although
sweet milk is not adapted to the
adult and fat la a desirable ad-
dition to wheat Not more than
three articles should be eaten at
a meal one being the Ideal Who
would care to eat an average
meal if It were first mixed? Va-
riety at a meal Is not necessary
No case of starvation is record-
ed where bread only waa fur-
nished in abundance

Rev Hodges pastor of the
Presbyterian church here has
pnrehased tha Coalgate Courier
He is an old newspaper man mid
just couldn’t stay out of the
business The Picm wishes Mr
Hodges success
Daring the past week a half
dozen Oklahoma towns have voted
bonds for water and lights by
overwhelming majorities Shall
Wapunucka keep in the march of
progress or shall it join the moss-
hick brigade! Bond electicn
next Tuesday will tell
Of course the building of water
works and electric light plants
alone will not make Wupunncka
a city in a night hut that with
the coming of the new railroad
will help to secure the necessary
population of 2000 in oder to
make it city of the first class
Vote for progress by voting for
ths bonds
A a ’’ representative county
paper this issue of the Press la a
hummer '
By an overwhelming majority
Konawa has voted bonds 5 tor
water works and lights
With another rain at the proper
time there’ll not be cribs enough
to hold half the corn intheWapa-
nucka country
Wanted — one hundred well ex
perienced saloon keepers for the
State dispensaries Most be a

sess a thorough knowledge of the

If you have the blues liver
complaint blighted hopes and
just on the verge of taking a
severe case af moving go out into
the green fielda hereabouts and
view the growing corn ripening
grain the fat hogs and cattle the
cackling hena and the happy farm-
ers and it will probably cure you
The other day a fellow who is
‘agin’’ the bonds was sitting on
a cracker box foaming and spit
ting Battle ax tobacco and talking
about what awful high taxes he
would have to pay should the
proposition carry An iuveatiga
tion disclosed the fact that his
total taxes is 38 cents And it is
probable that his wife takes in
washing for a living cutting the
wood and drawing the water
The heavy property owner
should favor the bonds for water
and lights because it will enhance
the ralne of his property increase
its income and reduce the insnr
ance The man who owns but
Jittle should favor it because it re
duces his insurance improves the
fiealth of the town and by bring-
ing more taxable wealth to the
town reduces hia taxes The
laboring man should favor it for
the same reasons and further ber-
ceuse it insures lota of work to
all

If a man has a-$50 bull dog he
will look after it carefully and
not let it ruu around
over town But if be has a boy
it is different He is turned loose
at a tender age to roam at will
and the people wonder where the
great army of tramps'- bums
loafers deadbeats gamblers and
drunkards come from each decade
They are germinated from oar
homes and flung broadcast on the
streets It may be that yonr boy
is making a growth in that direc-
tion At all events the boy ought
to be given an equal showing with
the bull pup
P J Ellis wbo has just moved
here from New Mexico states the
case plainly He says like all
olber men whp want to live where
there are some conveniences that
in esse the bonds sre defeated in
Tuesday’s election be has no in-
tention of investing in Waps
nucka If the bonds carry and
these necessary public utilities
built it will be the means of in-
ducing numbers of men of means
to locale and build their homes
here increasing the property of
the town and reducicg the taxes
half of what they ire today A
man wbo votes against the bonds
votes against his own interest as
welt as that of the town

SENATOR GOIE OF CKLAB82A
Seldom if ever before has a
legislative body witnessed so ie-
markable a feat as that performed
by the blind Senator from Okla-
homa during the tariff debate
Wednesday In a rash moment
Senator Lodge had cast doubt on
some of Senator Gore’s statements
in regard to the large earnings of
certain cotton and woollen mills
of New England
Kuowiug from personal experi-
ence how unscrupulously figuies
and facts ate often cited in a run-
ning ' partisan discussion the
Massachusetts scholar may have
felt entirely Safe iu challenging
the statistics given offhand diy a
mau deprived of the use of his
own eyes -Ho misjudged his op-
ponent Depending solely upon
his memory Senator Gore covered
his protectionist critic with con-
fusion by repeating in detail -from
the report of the Bureau of ' Cor-
porations of Senator Lodge's own
State the official figures covering
the capitalization surplus net
earnings and dividend rates of a
large uurnber of Massachusetts
mills He did the same with fifty
cotton and woollen corporations
Probably no public man since
Henry Fawcett who became
Postmaster-General in Gladstone’s
Cabinet in 1880 after having been
sightless for twenty-eight years
has possessed so infallible a
memory
The Senate has frequently hud
a taste of Senator Gore’s wit dur-
ing the tariff debate No one
has punctured more relentlessly
the shams and fallacies of Senator
Aldrich and the stand-patters
In the sharp give and take of a
standing fight no Senator to-day
is his equal Modest studious
keenly ulert and faithful to his
principles he has never wavered
or been seduced as so many
Democrats have been from the
true course of honest tariff re-
vision If there were more conscienti-
ous clear headed Democrats like
him in the Senate his party would
merit leas contempt throughput
the country because of the con-
duct of its representatives in

I i Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deaf-
ness and that is by constitutional
remedies Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube When this
tub is inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing am when
it is entirely clqsed Deafness is the
result and linleae the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition hearing -will be
destroyed forever nine cases out of
ten are caused by Catarrh which is
nothing but an inflamed condition of
the mucouS surfaces
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any cans Of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's
