TEN YEARS OF PAIN.

■TJi -nn pool" and the oil fields of the
Cherokee iiiilion are greatly alarmed
over tire conditions there, declaring
that Khould fire start ai night millions
of dollars' w rth of property would
lie destroyed. Thousands of barrels
of oil are running down little streams
aad creeks and saturating the ground,
grass, logs and dead timber. Recent-
ly a spark from an engine set grass on
lite near Kiefer. The flames spread
rapidly, especially nu the ground
which was oil soaked. A switch en-
gine was run to the fire and the
flames extinguished from a hose at-
tached to the tender of the engine
Charles Crcager, government In-
spector of the Indian Territory oil
fields, says that if the fite had started
during the night When no one was at
•land to give the alarm, a loss of a
million dollars would have been the
result. The field at this time is very
dry owing to a dry spell of nearly two
months. Mr. Creager says that the
oil is st red in both wooden and steel
tanks. The wooden tanks, of course,
would be rapidly destroyed in case of
fire while the steel tanks might with-
stand the heat and flames.
CAME PRETTY FAST FOR PAT.
At That, He Had Had Only What the
Doctor Ordered.
A Philadelphia physician says that
not long ago he was called to see an
Irishman, and among other directions
told him to take an ounce of whisky
three times a day. A day or so later
he made another visit and found the

"How did this happen?" the physi-
cian demanded of Pat's w ife, who was
hovering about solicitously.
"Sure, dochter, an' 'tis just what
you ordered, an' no more, that he
had," she protested.
"I said one ounce of whisky three
times a day; that could not make him
drunk." the physician said. "He has
had much more than that."
"Divll a drop more, doehter. dear,"
she declared. "Sure an' oi didn't

GET BETTER SALARY.
Secretary of State Federation of La
bor to Receive $100.
OKLAHOMA CITY: The Slate Fed- i
era!ion of I<abor, at their session here,
made a change in the salary of the
secretary. Heretofore the secretary
has only received $25 per month, and
It was thought by raising the salary to
$100 per month the office would pay
enough to have a man who could give
his entire time to it. In order to do (
this the per capita tax was raised to j
five cents. The new secretary has j
promised to give the federation his
entire time.
There was some effort made to
contest the election of the state offi-
cers for the reason, it was allied,
some of the locals did not receive the
ballots. U|ion Investigation, however,
It was decided that so far as the work
of the organization was concerned,
everything had been done that was
possible to provide for a "square deal'
in the election. The result as an-
nounced and accepted by the conven-
tion as final is as follows:
President, E. A. lJowerman. Shaw-
nee; first vice president, W. H. Dick-
erson\ Oklahoma City; second vice
president, Walter Evans, Kiowa; third
vice president, J. S. Vaughn, Krebs,
fourth vice president, G. E. Warren,

ther Langston, of Oklahoma City; au-
ditors and tellers, O. C. Scott, of Shaw-
nee; .lames Elliott, Coalgate; D. N.
Ferguson, Ardmore.
A legislative committee was elected
as follows: Pete Hanraty, of Henry-

He Was Not to Blame.
Little Bartholomew's mother over-
heard him swearing like a niule I
driver, says the Cleveland Leader, lie j
displayed a fluency that overwhelmed
her. She took him to task, explaining
the wickedness of profanity as wi ll |
as its vulgarity. She asked him where
ho had learned all those dreadful
words. Bartholomew announced that
Caved, one of his playmates, had
taught him. Cavert's mother was
straightway informed and ('avert was
brought to book. Ho vigorously de-
nied having instructed Bartholomew,
and neither threats nor tears could
make his confess. At last he burst
out: "I didn't tell Bartholomew any
cuss words. Why should I know how
to cuss any better than he does?
Hasn't his father got an automobile,
too?"
The Manchester canal was built at
a cost, of $75,000,000 to reduce freight
rates for a distance of 115 miles, and,
while it did not prove a good inter-
i est bearing investment on such a
I large expenditure, its indirect and
| more permanent benefits are said to
! have warranted it.
j Germany has 3.000 miles of canal,
' carefully maintained, besides 7,000
miles of other waterway. France,
with an area less than we would con-
sider a large state, has 3,000 miles of
canal; and in the northern part,
where the canals are most numerous,
the railways are more prosperous.
England, Germany, France, Holland
and Belgium are all contemplating
further extension and improvement of
their canal systems.—Century Maga-
zine.
Architects and Closets.
An architect, says a writer, com-
plains that women have a mania for
closets and that when a woman is al-
lowed any liberty in the matter she
changes his whole architectural plan
in order to make room for them. This,
he says, makes him a laughing stock
among his fellow architects. This is
very interesting, but why do architects
make plans if not to make every effort
themselves to secure conveniences? A
house may be architecturally perfect
and yet not fit to live in, and it certain-
ly is not if there is not closet room
enough.

Unique Features of Occupation Tax.
EL RENO: The city council has

that is causing a great deal of com-
ment. One penalty secUon of the or-
dinance charges a licence of on. dor

Fasters have gone without food for
many days at a time but no one can go
without sleep. "For a long time 1 have
not been sleeping well, often lying
awake for two or three hours during
the night but now I sleep sound every
night and wake up refreshed and vig
orous," says a Calif, woman.
"Do you know why? It's because I
used to drink coffee but I Anally cut It
out and began using Postum. Twice
since then I have drank coffee and
both times I passed a sleepless night,
and so I am doubly convinced coffee
caused the trouble and Postum re-
moved it.
"My brother was in the habit of
drinking coffee three times a day. He
was troubled with sour stomach and 1
would often notice him getting soda
from the can to relieve the distress in
his stomach; lately hardly a day
passed without a dose of soda for re
lief.
"Finally he tried a cup of Postum
and liked it so well he gave up coffee
nnd since then has been drinking
Postum In its place and says he has
not once been troubled with sour storn
ach."
Even after this lady's experience
with coffee her brother did not suspecj
for a time that cofTee was causing his
sour stomach, but easily proved it.
Coffee is not suspected In thousands
of cases just like this but It's easily
proved. A ten day's trial works won
ders. "There's a Reason."

BABY TORTURED BY ITCHING.
Rash Covered Face and Feet—Would
Cry Until Tired Out—Speedy
Cure by Cutlcura.
"My baby was about nine months
old when she had rash on her face and ,
feet Her feet seemed to irritate her
most, especially nights. They would
cause her to be broken in her rest, and .
sometimes she would cry until she was 1
tired out. I had heard of so many I
cures by the Cuticura Remedies that
I thought I would give them a trial.
The Improvement was noticeable in a ;
few hours, and before 1 had used one j
box of the Cuticura Ointment her feet I
were well and have never troubled her
since. 1 also used it to remove what
is known as 'cradle cap' from her j
head, and it worked like a charm, as it .
cleansed and healed the scalp at the j |
same time. Mrs. Hattie Currier,
Thomaston, Me.. June 9. 1906."
Rule of Cornish Chapels.
In Cornish (ling.) chapels the in- j
variable rule is for the men to sit |
on one side of the building and the
women on the other.
A visitor and his fiancee, who are [
staying in the district, went to chapel,
and just before the service began the j
young man was greatly astonished j
when the chapel steward, observing
that the couple were seated in the i
same pew, came over to him and, in |
an audible voice, said: "Come on out
of that, me son; we don't 'ave no j
sweetheartin' 'ere."
Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces- !
sary to use so much starch that the j
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear-
ing quality of the goods. This trou-
ble can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of its great-
er strength than other makes.
Punishment by Inches.

scheme for the dispensation of justice, j

Mexican bull to an old acquaintance,

"How?" replied the other, with a
glance around. "1 may say I was

return it nnd your grocer will give you

BAD BLOOD
THE SOURCE OF ALL DISEASE
F.vcry part of the b™ly is dependent on the blood for nourishment and
strength." When this life stream is flowing threiigh the system in a state of
purity nnd richness we are assured of perfect and uninterrupted health;
because pure blood is nature's safe-guard against disease. When, however,
the body is fed on weak, impure or polluted blood, the system is deprived of
its strength, disease perms collect, and the trouble is manifested in various
ways. Pustular eruptions, pimples, rashes and the different skin affections
show that the blood is in a feverish and diseased condition as a result of too
much acid or the presence of some irritating humor. Sores and Ulcers are
the result of morbid, unhealthy matter in the blood, and Hheuniatism, Ca-
tarrh, Scrofula, Contagious Blood l'oison, etc., are all deep-seated blood
disorders that will continue to grow worse as long as the poison remains.
These impurities and poisons find their way into the blood in various ways.
Often a sluggish, inactive condition of the system, and torpid state of tha
avenues of bodily waste, leaves the refuse and waste matters to sour and
form uric and other acids, which are taken up by the bloou and distributed
throughout the circulation. Coming in contact with contagious diseases is
another cause for the poisoning of the blood; we also breathe the germs and
microbes of Malaria into our lungs, nnd when these get into the blood in
sufficient quantity it becomes a carrier of disease instead of health. Some
are so unfortunate as to inherit bad blood, perhaps the dregs of some old
constitutional disease of ancestors is handed down to them and they are
constantly annoyed and troubled with it. Bad blood is the source of all dis-
case, and until this vital fluid is cleansed and purified the body is sure to
suffer in some way. For blood troubles of any character S. S. S. is the best
remedy ever discovered. It goes down into the circulation acd removes any
and all poisons, supplies the healthful properties it needs, and completely
and permanently cures blood diseases of
every kind. The action of S. S. S. is so
thorough that hereditary taints are removed
and weak, diseased blood made strong aad
healthy so that disease cannot remain. It
