Lots of truth in tlie following: If
you sit down and allow your mind to
dwell on the e\il characteristics in
your neighbors, you wilfully bring
yourself to theii^level, and are asso-
ciating from choice with the worst
that you can find in them instead of
dwelling wit h and assisting, the good
you may also find, and with less
t rouble.

Tiik Texas senate has adopted a con-

amusing when we consider that t he
Blue Bonnet is not Buffalo clover, nor

different family of plants, the centau-

species, none of which have any re-
semblance to any variety of clover.—

Oklahoma the Forty-Sixth State.
The growth of Oklahoma, which
was mainly carved out of the territory
set aside for the Indians in 1834, has
been phenomitial. even for the West.
The movement to open the territory's
public lands to settlement began about
1879. Then arose the "Oklahoma
Boomers"—would-be settlers who,
when arrested and expelled, only
waited till the troops were out of
sight, and then moved back into the
coveted country.
The boomers' campaign lasted ten
years. Tne cent ral portion of what is
now Oklahoma was finally opened in
April, 1880. At t he blast of a bugle at
noon on a beautiful spring day began
a stampede, which seems not to have
ended yet. More than 50,000 persons
entered the new territory that, day, and
before nightfall a number of town-
sites had been laid out for several
thousand persons each.
Another tract was opened in 1S91,
and the Cherokee Strip or outlet in
185)3. The census of 1800 showed a
population of 02,000. The current
census fixes the present population at
about 400,000. A year ago there were
still nearly 7,000,000 acres of govern-

his experiment. His first advertise-
ment doubled the size of his congrega-

increased the average attendance from
150 on Sunday evening to 400, which
crowded the church.

Much sentiment in favor of estab-
lishment of t he whipping post as a pen-
alty for minor crimes, such as habitual
drunkness, vagrancy, and especially
wife-beating, was recently shown at a
legislative hearing on Hie subject in
Connecticut. Henry G. Newton of New

tional club of that city, appeared in fa-
vor of Introducing the whipping post,
and said that practically all of the

The Balky Horse.
This story as told by a farmer of his
experienced with a balky horse is go-
ing the rounds of the exchanges:
"One day I was driving him along
the railroad and just as we got on the
crossing he balked. At first I was
afraid the train would come along.
Then after awhile 1 didn't care wheth-
er a train came along or not, and in
about an hour 1 was afraid one
wouldn't come. I just asked to have
a train come along. I prayed for one.
Pretty soon I saw one coming. It
made me smile. When the engineer
whistled for me to get <>fT the track, I
laughed. I just climbed out of the
end of the buggy, leaned against the
fence and prepared to enjoy the pic-
nic. Oil, but it was sport. The
balky horse went that time. He was
distributed along the track for twenty
rods. And the old buggy and har-
ness looked so comical. I never had
so much fun since I was a boy. 1 sued
t he railroad company for $700; a jury
of farmers gave tne $772. n(>. It is too
hard to drive a balky horse and be a
Christian at the same time. I tried
it two years and gave it up as a bad
job."
