Nowadays a weather prophet does
not seem to be honored in any-
body's country.
If you have any of those sus-
picious looking nickles and don t
like them we will take them,
A sucker is the man who has not
outgrown his confidence in the hon-
esty of his fellow men.
, "Things move along so rapidly
nowadays that people who say that
it can't be done are interrupted by
someone doing it.
The first commandment we know
anything about told man to woik,
and some of the others to follow
told him to work more.
A Frenchman has invented a
machine that can be propelled by
hot air. What a boon this will be
to the polititions, who can get about
at almost no expense.
A negrc boy living near Cometa,
Oklahoma, has a royalty income of
$700 a day from oil wells on his
land. He has 160 acres of rough,
rocky land that was considered of
little value until oil was discovered.
Early to bed and early to rise,
mind your business and tell no
lies, Don't get drunk and deceive
your wives, pay your debts and ad'
vertise, buy from men of enterprise

—Bartlesville Examiner.
An exchange says; "Who is the
happier—the man who has $100,000
or he who has seven daughters?'
The man with the surplus daughters
of course. The man with the money
is not satisfied and wants more,
The man with the seven daughters
is satisfied—he has enough.
Cimarron Up.
Much excitement was caused here
the first of the week by the rise in
the Cimarron river. Advance re-
ports reached here of the damage
near Kingfisher and of the "fifteen
toot rise" coming. The river be-
gan rising Sunday evening and
reached the highest point early
Tuesday morning. While some low
bottom land was flooded a fjw hours
and slight damages done the high
mark of two years ago was not
reachcd by a probably two feet. No
serious damage was done and the
river bridge was unharmed. The
bank near the south approach
caved off considerably and shows
urgent need of the riprap work we
have heard of and been From'set^
frequently of late.— Perkins Journal.
People in this vicinty have not
lost faith in the oil prospects and
are expecting every day to hear of
opening up a well in this vicinity.
At the Morehead well they have just
passed through a strata of Sand and
have struck a heavy vein of salt
water. They are down 1883 feet at
this time and will continue to drill
as soon as the water is out.
At Broyles the drill is down about
1500 feet and they are going rapidly.
George M. King has the contract
fo. drilling the Tully well. He has
built a house and is getting ready
to begin operations right now.—Rip-
ley Bulletin.
An Indiana publication recently
said; "After God had finished the
rattlesnake, toad and vampire, he
had some awful substance left with
which he made the "knocker,"
which is a twolegged animal with a
corkscrew soul, water-sogjed brain
and a combination backbone of jelly
and glue. Where other people have
hearts he carries a tumor of rotten
principles. When he comes down
the street honest men turn their
backs, angels in heaven take refuge
behind their harps and the devil
locks the gates of hell."
THE KIND.
"What do you think of the picture
of affaire in Mexico ?"
"Maybe they will turn out to be
some marine views."

Strange Facts About Sleep.
No scientist can explain what sleep
really is. Most human beings sleep
on ttteir side, with the knees drawn
up. Elephants always and horses
commonly standing up. Bats sleep
heads downward, hanging by their
hind legs. Birds, with the exception
of owls and the hanging parrots of
India, sleep with their heads turned
tailward over the back and the beak
thrust among the feathers between
the wing and body. Storks, eulls
and other long legged birds sleep
standing on one leg. Ducks sleep in
water with their heads tucked under
their wing, and to avoidrdrifting
shoreward they keep paddling with
one f©ot , thus making them move in
a circla. Sloths sleep hanging by
theij fore feet, the head tucked in
between their fore legs. Foxes and
wolves sleep curled up, their noses
and the soles of their feet elose to-
gether and blanketed by their bushy
