Ask almost any man what he had for
breakfast, and he'll say, "Oh, the usual thing
—toast, coffee and breakfast food "
But give him KRUMBLES—then
see what he says!
KRUMBLES is the first Wheat breakfast food with
a natural, satisfying flavor. Serve it with cream or milk.
If the folks ask for sugar, tell them to tasie
KRUMBLES first.
Today is the time to see your grocer about

Look for this Signature—
Anot'ner "Glorius Fourth" draws
near. In a more or le3s fitting way
it will be observed as hitherto
throughout the broad domain of the
stars and stripes. One of the strong-
est bulwarks of our freedom is the
absolute separation of church and
state which ha3 always and we tru3t
will always obtain in this country,
and yet it is eminently proper that
t'ne church should in some way cele-
brate the birthday of the nation, not
so much because it is our national
birthday, as because of the very real
significance which it possesses rela-
tives to the upward tendency of the
whole human race and the race's
age-long struggle for liberty. Free-
dom is the universal goal. Our Sav-
iour came to set the captives free,
and the kingdom of God on eart'n can
never be realized in its fullness until
all men the wide world over are free,
politically, industrially", intellectually
and spiritually. The church, as God'3
agent for bringing about the king-
dom on earth, is therefore vitally
concerned in every step that is taken
anywhere toward the goal of human
liberty. So we have in the calendar
of the c'nurch what is known as Pa-
triotic Day, falling on the Sunday
nearest the Fourth of July. Indepen
dence Day comes this year on Sun-
day, hence the two days will coincide
and they will be observed next Sun-
day in the morning service at the
Central Christian church, when the
pastor will speak on the subject
which stands at the head of this ar-
ticle. A cordial invitation to all. A
royal welcome awaits you at
'The Homelike Church"

Mangum people who bought th«
simple mixture of buckthorn bark,

are purprised at t'ne INSTANT effect
of a SINGLE SPOONFUL. This rem-
edy is so complete a bowel cleanser
that it i3 used successfully in appen-
dicitis. Adler-i-ka acts of BOTH up-

Why sbo«M woa>*« vote* That to
tbe question I bat la ringing from
ocean to ocwan and rvvarberatlng from
tbe Canadian boundary to tbe m«si>
eaa border It la tbe mission of a
baa paper to glva tbe n*ws and tbe
•ctloo of tbe Tesaa F rmt>ra' Union
In opposing woman s suffrage boa
thai question eaa recently before tbe
Tssaa legislature Is significant as
roproeentlng tbe atUtnds of Ibe or-
ganised plowman We reproduce In
part tbe argument presented by Hon.
W. D Lewis, president of tbe Texaa
rartners Union. In opposing tbe blU:
"It Is gratifying to note that It la
not the farmer's wife who Is clamoring
fur tbe ballot She Is too busy
trying to make happier homes, mold-
ing tbe minds of future cltlsens and
sharing with her husband tbe carse
of life to Indulge In political gossip.
Tbe ballot will give bsr no relief from
drudgery, give no aaalstance In cloth-
ing tbe children or bring to tbe home
additional comforts, conveniences or
opportunities in Ufa. It la, aa a rule,
the city woman promoted to idleness
by prosperity, who is leading the suf-
fragette movement.
"From many standpoints, perhapa
a woman has as much right to vote
as a man. So has she as much Hght
to plow as a man; she has as much
right to work In a factory as a man;
she has as much right to shoulder a
musket as a man, but we would rather
she would not do so from choice
and we regret that necessity ofttimes
compels her to earn a living by en-
gaging in gainful occupations. We do
not consider misfortune a qualifica-
tion for suffrage or a business acci-
dent a reason for granting franchise.
We are opposed to woman at the
ballot box the same as we are op-
posed to woman in the field, in the
factory or in the army and for the
self-same reasons. We had rather
see her plant flowers than sow wheat;
gather bouquets than pick cotton and
rear children than raise political is-
sues, although she may have as much
right to do one as the other.
Opposed to Unsexlng Humanity.
"Sex qualification for suffrage may-
have its apparent inconsistencies. No
general rule adjusts itself perfectly
to all conditions. It is a favorite 4t-
gument advanced by the proponents of
woman's suffrage that many cultivated
and noble women ar^ far more capa-
ble of intelligently exercising sov-
ereignty than a worthless negro, but
the South never was anxious for
negro suffrage, and while culture and
refinement, and even morality, are
desirable virtues, they are not the
only qualifications for franchise.
"The primary, inherent and insep-
arable fitness for suffrage is support-
ing a family. The plow handle, the
Jorge and the struggle for bread af-
ford experience necessary to properly
mark the ballot Governtaent is a
great big business and civilization
from the very beginning assigned
•woman the home and man the busi-
ness affairs of life.
"There has been much freakish leg-
islation enacted during the past de-
cade that no doubt appeals to woman's
love for the ridiculous, but to under
take to unsex the human race by law-
is the height of legislative folly and
a tragedy to mankind.
"We are opposed to the equal rights
of woman—we want her to ever re-
main our superior. We consider
woman's desire to seek man's level
the yellow peril of Twentieth Century
civilization.
"Woman is the medium through
which angels whlpper their messages
to mankind; it is her hand that plants
thoughts in the intellectual vineyard;
it is through her heart that hope, love
and sympathy overflow and bless man-
kind. Christ—the liberator of woman-
kind—was satisfied to teach the I^ssont
of life and He was a man. He chose
to rule over human hearts and re
fused worldly power and men followed
after Him, women washed His feet
little children climbed upon His knees
and the Ruler of the universe said
that in Him He was well pleased.
Can woman find a higher calling?"
THEMISTOCLES
When Themistocles was asked by
his host at a dinner party to enter-
tain the guests by playing the lute, he
replied that he could not play the
fiddle, but that he could make a small
town a great city. Wre have in this
nation many politicians who are good
"fiddlers," but they cannot make s
small town a great city. We are over-
run with orators who can play upon
the passions of the people, but they
can't put brick and mortar together.
We need builders.
Let those who hunger and thfrst for
power understand that the highest
glory of a statesman la to construct,
and that It is better for a man that he
should build a pnblic highway than
that he should become Governor of a
state, and that he start a plow than
that he become the author of a law.
The true test of statesmanship is the
plow and the hammer, so let those
who would govern, first build.
