Church going day in many towns
in the state is getting popular and is
the means of getting the people in-
terested. Wouldn't it be a good
ide for our churches to designate
some Sunday as church going day
and try to get those who seldom are
seen at church to attend? Try it
once.
Senator Gore.
The unanimous, even enthusiastic,
verdict of the Oklahoma jury in the
suit against the blind Senator by
the wife of a disappointed office-
seeker, her helpers being also disap-
pointed candidates for office brought
a sense of relief to thousands of the
Senators friends tnroughout the
country, who feared political influ-
ences. The circumstances of the
?ase and the result have strengthen-
id Senator Gore. He was one of
the earliest, and has been one of the
most consistent, {progressives on the
Democratic side of the Senate Cham-
' ber. Oklahoma has set a high
standard of excellence in the only
two Senators the state has had, she
had the good sense to re-elect Owen
and will re-elect Gore.—Harper's
Weekly.

CAUSE OF A GROUCH.
First Lodge Member—I rlon't
know what I did tc offend our new
grand high mucky-muck, but he
hasn't spoken to me since 1 recov
ered from my illness.
Second I-iodge Member—That's
the trouble. You see, he spent a
good many hours learning the fu-
neral ritual while you were sick.—

Blessed is the man who discovers
in the hour of his adversity that he
has a lot more friends than he thought
he had—but he is scarce.
Why Farmers Should Adver-
tise in the Newspaper.
In the current issue of Farm and
Fireside, the national farm paper
published at Springfield, Ohio, J. M.
Taylor writes a valuable and inter-
esting article telling farmers how to
get to the market with their goods.
Mr. Taylor goes on, as follows, to
show how farmers can use the news-
papers :
"The cities are full of people who
want to buy their goods direct, the
country is full of farmers who would
gladly sell direct for the sake cf the
additional profits to be gained by
that mode of selling All that re-
mains is for them o get togother.
"There is no need of an extensive
advertising campaign. All that is
necessary is a small display adver-
'isement in '.he newspapers of the
nearest large city. And in writing
the ad thfe farmer should not be bash-
ful about having his name easily
seen. Let him advertise Smith's po-
tatoes, or Smith's cabbages, or what-
ever Smith has to sell. Do it in a
manner that will leave the impres-
sion that Smith is proui of his cab-
bages, that he knows them to be up
to standard and that he personally
stands back of them. People will
more readily buy of a man when he
stamps his name on his goods in a
manner which shows that it is not
afiaid to be known as their sponsor
Futhermore, it is good business, for
if people buy Smitn's cabbages this
year and find them good they will
clamor for Smith's cabbages next
year and oe satisfied with no other."
The Kncker's Prayer.
Here is one that is going the
rounds just now ;
'• Lord please don't let this town
grow. I've lived here for thirty
years and during that time I've
knocked everything and everyboby ;
no firm or indivdual has established
a business here without my doing
all I could to put them out of busi-
ness I've used underhanded method
unown to the knocking frate.n'yto
injure their business; I've lied about
them and would have stolen from
them if I had the courage I have
done all I could do to keep the town
from growing ; never have I spoken
a good word for it, but instead, I've
knocked hari and often.
"It pains me, 0 Lord, to see that
in spite of my knocking this town is
beginning to grow. Some day, I
fear, I will be called upon to put
sidewalks in front of my property
and who knows but what I may
have to help to keep up the streets
that run by my premises? This,
Lord, would be more than I could
bear. It would eost me money, and
I could not afford to put out my
money, though all I have was made
right here in this town.
"Then, too, more people might
come if the town begin to grow,
which would cause me to looe some
of my pull, I ask, therefore, to keep
this town at a standstill, that I may
continue to be the chief knockar.
Amen, amen."—Ex.
I Will Go To School.
"The people who know J. L. Goff-
man made a good deal of fun for
themselves by predicting what John
would not do. I notice that his go-
ing to Business College has fooled
everybody around here. He is now
drawing $200 pe' month in Sioux
Falls, S. D. as Auditor for the Union
Savings Association.
"I-am as strong, as healthy, and
as intelligent as lots of the fellows
who go ahead and do things. I
have decided that Monday morning
will find me at the Capital City Bus-
iness College at Guthrie where John
graduated in two months andtendiys
I can enter any day in the year and
my progress depends entirely on my
own effortg- The scholarship is un
limited and I can go until I finish.
•'The chances are that i£ I stay
on the farm I will not have the op
portunity to see as much of the world
as I niignt by takingva business train•
ing; getting into the midst of big
business things.
"I have read the catalog and be-
lieve I can do as well as the others,
and am going to enroll at once and
surprise my friends by winning my
diploma, being placed in a good of-
fice position, arid leaving the other
fellows around here far in the rear."

MUSIC AS MED!c!NE.
Some one asked Oscar Hammer-
stein the other day if lie believed in
the new therapeutic idea that music
was a medicine.
"Believe in it? Of course 1 do,"
the impresario replied. "1 know at
least three operas that are a drug on
the market, while as for popular
songs, there isn't one of them thai
doesn't make me ill."
