the price has done it already.
If you have any pro-German

RECORD HARD TO BEAT.
A shining light in primitive Meth-
odism, William Cheverton, known
among Ins Isle of ifright friends as
“Bishop Cheverton,” died in his
ninety-sixth year.
For more than seventy-five years
this aged farmer and eloquent lay
preacher took services regularly,
without missing a single appoint-
ment, for the primitive Methodists.
His family kept from him all news
of the war; in fact, he died without
knowledge of war matters since Au-
gust, 1914.—London Chronicle.

terest. call PlioDe No. 3.

League will get you, if you don’t

Too often we fail to appreci-
ate our everyday surroundings
For instance: the average citi-
zen doesn’t realize that Ralston
is surrounded by the most beau-
tiful country in Oklahoma, and
that very few towns in the state
have half its natural advantages.

patronize^ your home millinery
