Tfte "FATVrom the FLOWER
Which would you prefer to put in your stomach
—a fat such as lard, direct from the hog, or a vegeta-
ble product such as Cottolene> that is pure, healthful
and easily digested?
Besides being healthful, CottoUne is a cleanly product.
From Cottonfieldito Kitchen—human hands never touch the oil
from which CottoUne is made. Moreover, it is
packed in patent air-tight tin pails—never sold
in bulk—and is absolutely protected from air,
dust and contamination.
We guarantee Cottolene to be fresh and satis-
factory, or authorize your grocer to refund your
money. Under such conditions why take chances
with hog lard or any imitation of Cotto/cncf

LAST NUMBER
OF LYCEUM
COURSE GOOD
Bargett Concert Com-
pany Pleases the
Audience
Saturday's Daily Times.
The concert last night at the
(iarrick theatre by the Evelyn
Bargelt company was excellent and
a good audience was present to
witness the last number on -the
Lyceum course of the Ladies' Home
Mi* sion Society. Miss Bargelt is
a reader and crayon artist with
the ability to reach the hearts of
her hearers from the first appear-
ance, and she was greeted with
hearty applause after each num-
ber.
Mr. JPullenwider, violinist, is
a finished musician and gave splen-
did renditions of some very difficult
selections. Mr. Batchelder, flute
and piccolo soloist, displayed won-
derful execution and played with
the taste of a master, while Mr.
Jores. .pianist and accompanist,
was all that could be desired.
While the musical program was
almost entirely classical, the audi-
ence showed their appreciation by
continually calling for encores, to
which the gentlemen always res-
ponded.
TURN TABLE WILL LEAVE
BABOiTT FOR NEW FIELDS
COMPLETED OF LABOR
' The new round house and turn
table for the Orient which has been
under construction in the local
yards for several months, is about
) completed and only a few flnish-
i ing touches will be necessary to
: finish the work. The turn table,
i which is the largest on the Orient
(line in Oklahoma, was tried out
; Tuesday under the supervision of
I Arthur .1. Rector, of Kansas City,
: assistant chief engineer of the
Orient, and the monster machine
worked like a charm. A 200 ton
1 lpcomotive was used for the test,
| which was the first engine ever
' turned on a table in Altus. The
I engine was first run onto the table,
turned, and then into the round
house. The coal chutes will also
be completed in a few days, and
will contain 13 pockets, sufficient
to supply the engines with coal
for some time. The people of Altus
are certainly glad to see th^se im-
provements ou the part of the rail-
road. and it is only a question of
time when the Orient will probably
begin the erection of shops here,
A. Home Institution.
A home institution, making flour
that is guaranteed against all oth-
ers in this or any other state, we
believe is a good and sufficient
reason for you to buy our flour.
If you don't like our goods we are
always here and you can tell lis so.
The flour from other mills is awav
from home and if it is not good
you cannot tell the mill about it.

Friday's Daily Times.
Rev, C. A. Pollock, for several
past pastor of the United Presby-
terian church in Altus, has ten-
dered his resignation to take effect
April 1, which lias been accepted
by the session. Mr. Pollock de-
parted today for DuQnoin, Kas.,
where he will spend the coming
two weeks, and after visiting other
points in the Sunflower State will
spend a month in Iowa, looking
over various vacancies. For the
present his family will remain in
Altus.
It is with sincere and profound
regret that Altus parts with this
excellent family, who have made
many warm and lasting friend-
ships among the people of our city.
Mr. Pollock is a splendid preacher,
a good citizen and an agreeable,
likable Christian gentleman, and
his many frifends in Altus and
vicinity will unite with the Times
in good wishes for their success
wherever they may cast their lot.
