SAFE, CONVENIENT, ECONOMICAL
SAFE —because you do not have to carry much money.
CONVENIENT— because you can draw checks for bills.
ECONOMICAL— because your check is a receipt for all
bills paid and no chance to be required to pay
the same bill twice.

work am) flat.
With an eight hour day there Is a lot of ^ime for other things beside
work. Have we kept the play Idea to the front? Children love to play,
but as they grow the habit declines and In many instances it dies en-
tirely. With the shorter day the men must learn to play once again If
they have forgotten. After working hard most men cannot read to ad-
vantage. They get tired just sitting around "gassln" with each other.
They need to understand recreation and indulge In it. That is the great
advantage ol the shorter day, men can play more, can keep young longer.
The problem of what to do with our men in the eight hours they do not
work Is a hard one. The average man only works one-third of the time.
He sleeps one-third. Then he has one third for eating and doing his
chores, but there are still several hours unaccounted for and they must
be used in some way to keep the body healthy, to obtain resting.
We recently read a collection of criticisms and comments upon our
educational system by a number of eminent scholars and statesmen. We
found out that: Classical education is wrong, not being practical; techni-
cal educaUon, Including manual training, is wrong because it educates the
hand and not the head; common schools are working olang wrong lines,
because they stuff children with facts which they soon forget; high schools
are conducted upon radically wrong principals, they do not prepare stu-
dent's for life work. It's an awful Btate of affairs. Maybe we had better
cut out this education business and put the money Into hogs.—Ada Star-
Democrat.
I HAM'ES IN THE ARMY.
Generals Wood and Funston are shining examples of the opportunity
for advancement offered by our military establishment. From a surgeon
of no special ability, as shown by his record, General, Wood has In a few
years been advanced to the ranking major general of the army. General
Funston, from a free-lance in the Cuban army, was made a colonel by a
friendly Kansas governor and subsequently earned promotion to a bri-
gadier generalship in the regular army through his service in the Phi-
lippines Now as the ranking brigadier general of the service, he has been
placed In command of our first army in Mexico, and In the event of war
he has the opportunity to reap distinction, not afforded to other general
officers of the army. Neither Wood or Funston are graduates of military
academy and their military education was self-attained. The former owes
his present rank to the friendship of ex-President Roosevelt, while Fun-
ston may be said to have won his advancement by meritorious service.—Ex.
A WORTHY TKIBI'TE.
Roy Johnston in his Ardmore-Stateaman pays this worthy tribute to the
late Judge Stilwell Russell:
"Judge Russell's was a kind loving unselfish and noble character of
the rarest mold. His chief fault was his generosity, and his besetting sin
his big heart. A large portion of his income went to the upkeep of those
who had no claim upon him, and it Issaldhe would even borrow money to
give to the needy.
"A stranger was as quick to receive help from Judge Russell as bis
nearest friend. He seemed never to think of himself, and lived onlv for
those about him. He never forgot and was never too busy to be kindly,
courteous and affable to every one with whom he came in contact.
Howe\"r, it is chiefly because of his magnificent mind and scholarly
attainments that his name will live and be honored and revered in the
>ears to some. He was a Jurist of rare ability, and his mind was one of
the keenest, best read, and most thoroughly informed of anv In the south

horizon of his environment."

I Do not take chances with your
money.
An unusually high return for a
short time will not compensate you
for the loss of your principal.
Experience gained at the cost of
reduced capital is too dearly bought.
■Mining stock "Investments" are
typical of many precarious schemes
that small Investors are Invited to
get into "on the ground floor."
You remember Mark Twain's defi-
nition of a mine, "A hole In the
! ground into which a lot of fools
throw their money."
There are many wildcat schemes
promoted for the sole purpose of
separating fools and their money,
| but the lure of getting rich quick
seems to be especially strong in the
case of mining stock.
If your subscription to any such
1 "investment" is solicited, you will
have no difficulty in refraining from
' putting your money into the propo-
| sition if you bear in mind these
'facts:
The stock of a mine known to be
good does not need to be peddled
around.
It is hard to turn into money the
stock of any other kind of mine.
J Every ton ot ore removed from a
| mine reduces its value just so much.
I If the mine is exhausted before your
| principal has been returned to you
in dividends, you are a loser.
A safe rule to follow in choosing
an investment is to go to your bank-
er and inquire what proportion of
its face value he would loan upon
it as security. Being stern critics of
collateral, the officers or loan com-

A savings bank account itself of-
fers an ideal investment. It has the
cardinal features of security of
principal, certainty of interest re-
turn and availability in an emer-
gency.
It has an additional feature which
is often denied the investor in securi-
ties, namely, the possibility of con-
tributing small, odd amounts, and
immediately reinvesting interest re-
turns by adding them automatically
to the principal.

FREE ADVICE
TO SICK WOMEN
Thousands Have Been Helped
By Common Sense
Suggestions.
Women suffering from any form of
female ills are invited to communicate
promptly with the
wo man'8 private
correspondence de-
partment of the Ly-
dia E.Pinkham Med-
icine Co., Lynn,
Mass. Your letter
will be opened, read
and answered by a
woman and held in
strict confidence. A woman can freely
talk of her private illness to a woman ;
thus has been established a confidential
correspondence which has extended over
many years and which has never been
broken. Never have they published a
testimonial or used a letter without the
written consent of the writer, and never
has the Company allowed these confi-
dential letters to get out of their pos-
session, as the hundreds of thousands
of them in their files will attest.
Out of the vast volume of experience
which they have to draw from, it is more
than possible that they possess the very
knowledge needed in your case. Noth-
ing is asked in return except your good
will, and their advice has helped thou-
sands. Surely any woman, rich or poor,
should be glad to take advantage of this
generous offer of assistance. Address
