When day Is done I touch the bell—
Forthwith my air-ship man responds
"Fill up the bax!" Is my command—
“Until 'The Zephyr’ strains her bonds !
Then fur above the city’s dome
My man and I set out for home!
The night Is crisp but In the car
Is warmth and comfort and the thrill
Of sailing off above the crowd
Oter winding road end tinkling rilL
Stretched out upon a Turkish seat
I Journey homeward soft and fleet
No hanging to a strap for me
No bumping of the auto car—
The moon above ahall be my light
My guiding post Bhall be a atari
My trusty fellow by my side
Through finite space I gayly ridel
Ah! Would that all might ride as I
But all cannot be born to write
A poet I and prone to soar—
A second nature Is my flight!
And thua a poet’s pay I reap—
Hot air and ’Tly-wUh-me’’ are cheap!

Do not pick your teeth Let the
dentlBt do It Having had more experi-
ence he caa match them better
It is monumental stupidity to place
the headstone over the wrong man
What makes more noise under the
middle of a barn than a hen that bas
just laid an egg?
Yes Curley Locks it will Soak the
typewriter ribbon in a quart of water

a mistake and used a purple ribbon
Next time be more careful in your se-
lection A man wore a lock of her hair next
his heart for four months before he
discovered it was from her switch
The engagement is now shattered
A man can make a dozen opportuni-
ties for Buccess while he Is waiting
for one to make itself for him!
Many a youth sets out on the
journey of Ufe by walking 'round a

A Kansas man prayed that his trou-
bles might cease and the next day
Ms wife asked him for a winter hat
He Is now a confirmed Infidel
It being the custom to pension
herces why not provide for the man
who pays his taxes?
Whenever we bear of the probable
return of hoop skirts we are always
reminded of the year of the big wind
Praise a woman for her virtues and
he will like you a little Hint of a
fault and she will hate you forever

The Daco’a Wife
I saw a swarthy-skinned woman to-
day carrying a fractional part of a
lumber yard on her head
The storekeeper had fired a lot ol
boxes out back Along came the dago's
wife and stacked them carefully Then
she waited for a helping hand to aid
in boosting them to her bead
lie was a comfortable appearing
citizen in good clothes but be smiled
and lifting the burden placed It care-
fully on her head
She thanked him and moved away
cart fully balancing the weight
There will be a fire in one home to-
night anyhow
I’ll gamble there is no race suicide
in her home either
Would you like such a wife? Nice
helper eh? Well no accounting for
tastes Some society women kiss their
pug dogs you know
Expensive
The man is the bow
And the woman the chord!
Slie bends him at will
And sometimes breaks— her lord!
A Preacher’s Son
For some unaccountable reason a
preacher's son is expected to be mis-
chievous and possibly devilish The
piety of his parent seems not to in-
culcate a like strain in the offspring
who may be expected to lead the town
boys In every questionable escapade
that becomes village talk Not long
ago an Iowa preacher of the strin-
gent type resolved to lend a powerfhl
influence for the benefit of the boya
of his Sunday School The first de-
sirable step in his estimation waa to
get them to read the Bible Accord-
ing the following Sunday he spoke
at length of the beauty of the litera-
ture in the Good Book and ended by
offering to present a Bible to any
member of the school who did not al-
ready possess one To bis great cha-
grin and annoyance his own aon
marched piously forward before the
eyes of the entire school and gravely
asked for a Bible — the only student

No life is fruitful without frost
All helpful service is born of sym-

Patience with lesser lives is born

SUFFRAGE NOTES
(By Kate H Biggers)
November 20 the two literary
societies of the High School in
Duncan held the second of a se-
ries of debates the subject being
Resolved “That the women of
Oklahoma should be admitted to
tho light of suffrage’’
The debates on the negative
side very carefully prepared
themselves and undoubtedly pre-
sented tho very best sruments
to be found by tbe opponents of
woman suffrnge The affirmative
side had also studied the ques-
tion well and the result was the
usual one where judges consider
the value of arguments The
Duncan Banner says:
“They produced an array of
facts and arguments which were
hard to meet as for example the
fact that the women of Indian
Territory and part of Oklahoma
own half of the land but have n
voice politically in matters of
county or state policy or taxa-
tion’’ Their judges consisting of
Mrs Harry 8 Bockes Mr M I
Gilbeit and Rev Clegg were
unanimous for the affirmative
The 0th and 10th grades of the
Marlow public school had a very
interesting debate upon tbe ques-
tion of woman suffrage last Fri-
day afternoon Both 6ides were
well prepared and entered en-
thusiastically into the contest
While sorry for those upon the
wrong side it gives us pleasure
to state that the judges decided
in favor of the affirmative As
a matter of fact there are no
pood arguments against woman
suffrage at least none are not
equally good against man suf-
frage -
At the forty-first annual con-
vention of the National Grange-
I just held in Hartford Conn the
(following resolution offered by
?tat Master Orson S Wood of
Ellington Conn was adopted:
Whereas The National Grange
stands for equality of men and
women in the borne and Grange
and
“Whereas sThe N a ti o n a 1
Grange at its annual convention
has declared from time to time
in favor of equality of citizen
ship Therefore be it
“Resolved That the political
rights of women be discussed in
meetings of the order”
The 6tate Granges of Cali-
fornia Delaware Illinois Ken-
tucky Maine Maryland Minne
6ota Michigan New York New
Jersey Oregon Ohio Pennsyl-
vania and Washington have pass-
ed resolutions endorsing woman
suffrage
