The Oklahoma Bureau of the U. S.
Public Health Service will supply ab-
solutely free for the asking a set of
pamphlets describing the campaign of
the government against social diseas-
es, which present the true facts of sex
and how to avoid the pitfalls of illness
and infectious diseases. Set A is for
young men; Set B is for the general
public; Set C is for boys; Set D is
for parents of children; Set E is for
girls and young women; Set F is for
educators. Write to the U. S Pub-
lic Health Service, State Capital, Ok-
lahoma City, and receive any or all of
the sets, according to your needs. The
campaign against, and for the control
of veneral diseases is a great work,
Put the hammer in the locker;
Hide the sounding board likewise;
Anyone can be a knocker;
Anyone can criticize.
Cultivate a manner winning.
Though it hurts your face to smile
And seems awkward in the beginning.
Be a booster for awhile.
Let the blacksmith do the pounding;
That's the way he draws his pay;
You don't get a cent for hounding
Saint and sinner night and day.
Just for solid satisfaction
Drop a kind word in the slot,
And I'll warrant youH get action
On your effort on the spot.
Kindness every time beats kicking;
Mirth is better than a frown.
Don't waste your time picking
Flaws with brothers who are down
And it isn't distressing
If you give a little boost
To the man whom fates are pressing,

tomers all speak well of a certain
preparation, he forms a good cpinion

many druggists use and recommend
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. J. B
Cubrun. Ky., says, "I have used Cham-
berlain's Cough Remedy in my family
for the past seven years, and have
found it to be the best cough medicine
I have ever known.

"I'm Sorry I Didn't Buy That Farm a
Year Ago"—
h ti!' bouKht it two years ago my rents would have paid for it
by this time." These remarks are made every day by some one in
Claremore and vicinity. If our front vision was as far seeing as our
rear vision, we would all get rich in a little time. Land in Oklahoma
has advanced in value about 30 per cent in two years; lit Kansas,
0 per cent; in Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska and Missouri, 85 per cent; in
Texas, Arkansas and Louisiana, 75 per cent. Whv is Oklahoma
land not selling today for $200 to $350 per acre which is the prevail-
ing price in our adjoining states for land not as good as ours? Th
answer is, thc bad condition of titles several years ago, but the va-
rious court decisions have perfected our titles, and today the Eastern
loan companies are loaning as much money on our lands as they are
on lands in other states.

REVIVAL MEETING AT FIRST
BAPTIST CHURCH
Evangelist F. H. Watkins, of Den-
ton, Texas, who is conducting the re-
vival meeting at the First Baptist
< hurch, preached to a nice audience
Sun !ay morning and to a large crowd
at night.
In his preliminary remarks Sunday
night he said that he did not want to
bu called Doctor or ReverenC, but
that he wanted to be called preacher,
that he wanted to be a man among
nun. His text last night was from
Acts H): 2: "Have ye received the Holy
Ghost since ye believed?" In his dis-
course, Mr. Watkins said that the
Holy Ghost was not sent into the
world "broad cast" but that He was
sent to the christian people, that in
the Kith chapter of John, Jesus said:
"If I depart I will send Him unto you,
and when He is come He will reprove
the world of sin and of righteousness
and of judgment." He said there were
five tests whereby we may know that
we have the Holy Ghost filling our
lives: First, knowing we are saved;
second, when sin hurts you; third,
when you have power over known sin;
fourth, if Jesus is precious to you;
*« 'ove °' conscious to you.
Mr. Watkins said that some people
are really saved and are not sure of it,
but that every child of God ought to
be able to say, I know I am saved.
Some people say, "I think I am sav-
ed, or that when I come to die I am

trusting that by some means or other
I may be saved. He said there is not a
soul this side of Hell who could not
say that.
The pastor, Rev. Hunter, is hopeful
of a great meeting.

A MILD WINTER SURE
Some people are promising us a
colli winter because of certain signs
which may or may not be good.
But you can be sure that it will be
a mild winter for the man who has
plenty of coal in his bins, money in
the bank and a good job. Other signs
may fail but THRIFT is a sure sign
of a comfortable winter.
TO THE DYSPEPTIC
Would you not like to feel that your
stomach troubles are over, that you
can eat any kind of food that you
crave? Consider then the fact that
Chamberlain's Tablets hve cured oth-
ers, why not you? There are many
who have been restored to health by
tnking thes tablets and can now eat
any kind of food that they crave, ad
The Board of County Commission-
ers met Monday in regular monthly

ness of the county.

sin or other digestive fermc it but
strengthen the stomach and enable it
to perform its functions naturally, ad
