STUDENT FOUND
"NOT GUILTY"
IN MOCK TRIAL

TRIED ON CHARGE OF
"FLIRTING."
Younk men students of Baptist
University have never been accused
of flirting—in fact, they are not fa-
miliar with the use of "eye lan-
guage." However, in spite of this,
John Sherbourn, a student in the
university, was tried on the charge
before a Jury of twelve men last
night. It was a mock trial, but so
real were the elements entering into
the proceedings, and so ably was the
case presented by the prosecution,
the defendant was almost convinced
that he was guilty. The jury brought
in a verdict of not guilty.
Defendant Took Wltnesg Stand.
Sherbourn took the witness stand
in his own behalf and told his twelve
jurors that he was innocent of the
charge; that he always demeaned
himself both in public and privato as
a young man should, and as for ever
using his eyes—he stood before the
jury and asked them to gaze into his
optica, which, he stated, was the best
evidence he could offer. The jury
failed to discover a naughty twinkle,
and the defendant was discharged.
Staged by University Students.
The mock trial was staged by the
J. M. C. Literary Society of the Bap-
tist U. The trial was characterized
by many laughable incidents. James
Williams presided as judge. The case
was prosecuted by Robert Kerr and
J. M. Carl. The defense was repre-
sented by Beryl Randall and Earley
Crabtree.

SUCCEDS AGE
GRAY HAIR IS FIRST SIGN OF
AGE—HARMLESS REMEDY RE-
STORES TO NATURAL COLOR.
Osier Isn't the only man who turns
down old age. In the business world
the "young man" Is always the one
who picks the plums. It is an age of
"new thought," "new talent," etc., and
the old man is passed by in the
race.
One of the first signs of coming
age is the appearance of gray hairs.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Rem
edy will correct this sign, which so
often deceives people into thinking
that age is really upon them. It is
a well known fact that Sage and Sul-
phur will darken the hair. Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur combines these
old-time remedies with other agents,
which remove dandruff and promote
the growth of the hair.
The manufacturers of this remedy
authorize the druggists to sell it un-
der guarantee that the money will
be refunded If it falls to do exactly
as represented.
Don't look old before your time.
Get a bottle of Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur today .and see what an Im-
provement it will make in the up-
pearance of your hair.
This preparation is offered to the
public at fifty cents a bottle, and Is
recommended and sold by all drug-
gists.

If cough syrups would cure coughs
every time, it would not be necessary
for us to print this information, but
there are so many cases of chronic
bronchitis In town that have hung on
for months and years, we feel that
we must tell what we know about it.
It is a positive fact that the only
right way to treat a cough is to use
a remedy that acts on the blood, such
as Vinol, our delicious cod liver and
iron preparation without oil.
This makes the blood rich and
pure so It can heal and strengthen
the inflamed bronchial tubes. Its
taste is so pleasant that even chil-
dren like It.
Mrs. Oliver Parham, East Durham,
N. C., says, "I used Vinol for a cough
which had lasted two years and it
gave me perfect satisfaction. I am
also giving it to a delicate child to
strengthen her. She will not take
any other medicine, but Vinol Is so
pleasant she cries for It and it is
benefiting her very much."
Remember, If Vinol does not help
you, it costs you nothing. Wallace

way. Don't blame the child, the chances are it can't
help it. This treatment also cures adults and aged
people with urine difficulties by day or night.
Letter from One of the Authors of
the "Phillips Kill" in Reply
to Mr. Allien.
Special Correspondence.
Oklahoma City, Dec. 14.—"Yes, I
notice Mr. Aiken says my bill is a
joke. But I want to state right now
that my bill will be Initiated and filed
with the secretary of state long be-
fore Mr, Aiken's 'University Bill' re-
ceives the required number of sig-
natures.
"Now, with reference to the bill be-
ing a Joke: is a bill which prohibits
the erection of a law school at Nor-
man at a total cost to the taxpayers
of this state of one hundred and
twenty-five thousand dollars for the
erection of a law school and fifty
thousand dollars for the equipment
of the same for the accommodation
of a few 'law students' a Joke?
"Is a bill which provides quarters
for the unfortunate Insane of this
state without taking one cent from
the pockets of the taxpayers of the
state a Joke?
"Is a bill that provides a home for
the blind children of this state with-
out taking one cent from the pockets
of the taxpayers of the state a Joke?
"Is a bill that cuts out an appro-
priation of from two to three hun-
dred thousand dollars annually for
the maintenance of the State Uni-
versity, and yet retains that univer-
sity, a Joke?
"Is a bill that lops off the annual
appropriation for the Edmond Normal
and takes over that building for the
accommodation of the blind children
of the state, who are today without
a habitation and a home, a joke?
"Wait until the honest sons of toil
—the men the university crowd
would rob of every opportunity of
education, the men that the university
crowd insists should remain more
hewers of wood and drawers of
water—wait until these men whose
forms have become stooped and faces
seamed from facing the storms of
life—wait until these men have an
opportunity to sign a petition initia-
ting a bill to repeal a measure ap-
propriating one hundred and seventy-
five thousand dollars for the purpose
of "educating" a few individuals to
become either questionable collection
agents or justices of the peace, and
they will decide whether or not my
bill is a Joke.
"Now, I will admit, without argu-
ment, there there is a joke or two in
connection with this matter. One of
them is Mr. Akin and the other is the
appropriation of one hundred and
seventy-five thousand dollars to edu-
cate a few individuals at the ex-
pense of the taxpayers of the Btat©.
"Mr. Aiken will be remembered as
the person who made a speech in
the Legislature in advocacy of that
one hundred and seventy-five thous-
and dollar appropriation for a law
school, and in that speech stated that
he deserted a team of mules in the
cornfield on his father's farm, went
to Norman and took a job of wash-
ing dishes in order to attend the
university anu educate himself, that
he might be enabled to write back
home and tell the folks and neigh-
bors what to do to save the coun-
try. Mr. Aiken turned traitor to old
Beck and Jin in his father's corn-
field that he might come to the Legis-
lature and advocate the expenditure
of one hundred and seventy-five
thousand dollars for a law school
to accommodate a few law students.
Mr. Aiken, in his speech, with a
mighty flourish, called the attention
of the world to the fact that he de-
serted the aforementioned team of
mules to go to Norman and wash
dishes In order that he might fit him-
self for the duties of citizenship.
Now, look at the result! Mr. Aiken's
treason to old Beck and Jin on that
memorable day when he 'received the
call' In his father's cornfield has cost
the people of this state, unless they
nip it in the bud, one hundred and
seventy-five thousand dollars for the
erection of a building to warm and
pamper a few 'law students at the
University of Oklahoma. In his
speech, Mr. Aiken pointed out with
great vigor and flourish of language
that he had turned traitor to the
soil, quit the house of his father,
listed not to the lowing of the kinc,
turned a deaf ear to the midnight
song of the thrush, closed his eyes to
the beauty of the dewey mom, turned
his back on faithful old Beck and
Jin and went to Norman and took a
Job washing dishes, and Insists he
hat advanced beyond his good old
father and those he left behind 011
the farm; he scorns the depths from
which he did ascend.
"Yes, there is a joke in this whole
matter—It's Mr. Aiken and his appro-
priation of one hundred and seventy-
five thousand dollars for a law school
to accommodate and educate a few
future legal lights to advise the toll-
stained veterans of Oklahoma as tc
their duty as citizens.
"I think Aiken senior had the cor-
rect idea of the eternal fitness of
things when he sent Aiken Junior to
HOW ONE
WOMAN WON
Her Health and Strength Back
Again by The Use of Cardui.
Tampa, Fla.—In a letter from tlii3
City, Mrs. K. C. Corum writes: "I was
ail weakened and worn out with wo-
manly troubles. My husband brought
me some < ardul as a tonic, and, from
the first day, it seemed to help.
I had almost lost my reason, but,
thanks to Cardui, I did not. Soon, I
felt and looked like a new woman. I
think the remedy Is wonderful. I
recommend It to my friends, for I have
received great benefit from It."
Cardui acts specifically on the weak-
ened womanly organs, strengthening
the muscles and nerves, and building
them up to health.
It helps to refresh the worn-out ner-
vous system and relieves the effects of
overwork, both mental and physical.
Fifty years' successful use fully
prove the merit of this purely vege-
table, tonic remedy for women.
In every community, there live some
who have been benefited by Cardui.
The beneficial effects of this time
tested woman's remedy, soon show
themselves in many different ways.
Try It.

"While a coffee drinker I was a
sufferer from indigestion and inten-
sely painful nervous headaches, from
childhood. (Tea contains caffeine—
the same drug found in coffee.)
"Seven years ago my health gave
out entirely. I grew so weak that
the exertion of walking, if only a
few feet, made it necessary for me
to lie down. My friends thought I
was marked for consumption—weak,
thin and pale.
"I realized the danger I was in
and tried faithfully to get relief from
medicines, till, at last, after having
employed all kinds of drugs, the doc-
tor acknowledged that he did not be-
lieve it was in his power to cure me.
"While in this condition a friend
induced me to quit coffee and try
Postum, and I did so without the
least hope that it would do me any
good. I did not like It at first, but
when It was properly made I found
Postum was a most delicious and re-
freshing beverage. I am especially
found of It served at dinner ice-cold,
with cream.
"In a month's time I began to im-
prove, and in a few weeks my In-
digestion ceased to trouble me, and
my headache stopped entirely. I am
so perfectly well now that I do not
look like the same person, and I
have so gained in flesh that I am 15
pounds heavier than ever before.

me. 1 still use it and shall always
do so." Name given by Postum Co.,
