teemed young people, were quietly
married at 7:30 O'Clock last evening

which has for some time been the
home Of the bride. Rev. J. B. FOrt

messed only by the immediate relatives
of the contracting parties. Both Of the
young people have grown up here. The

mold and bas many attractions of per
son and character. Mr.. and Mrs. Root
have the congratulations and best
wishes of all who know them.
An exchange sen sibly remarks that,
Business is like a river with many
tributaries, and in which it is impossi
BILE to trace every individual drop o.
water to the spring rom whence it
came. Temporary advertisements in q
small way will not produce an imme-
diate or permanent increase OF busi-
ness any more than light shower
will effect the depth Of water in a
we'll. Every business man should gee
this from the experience of the many
who follow the rule of wide and per.
sistent advertising. Certainly such
advertisers as John Wannamaker,
Bullene, Moore, Emery & Co, G.. Y.
Smith, and others, know what they
are about.
The responses to our requests for re-
mittanse have been coming in very
satisfactorily, and we hope by the
fret of the year to have our books in
reasonably fair shape. The most graf.
flying feature of the case is that, with
scarcely an exception, those who come
in to pay up, apologize for having al
lowed their account to run 30 far be.
hind and thank us for having waited
on them so patiently. This is good
deal pleasanter than it would he II
they got mad and stormed around and
stopped their paper because We "dun-
ned" them, and we appreciate it.
Talking about rarid corn husking,
John 8. Martin, of Moran, hands US
the following from the Lincoln, (Ill.,,
Herald which we fear will be calcu-
lated to make some of our ambitious
young farmers tired:
Clinton Danghorn, our famous corn husker,
who picked liz bushels in five hours last fall,
has recently received challenge from party
near ChiIlicothe. Ohio, to match against
time, The challenger wages that our man can
not pick 100 bushels OF corn In six hours, omit
ting the crib. Clint accepts the challenge upon
condition that the party be satisfied with the
corn If husked clean enough for market. lie
has been averaging that amount daily since the
season opened and putting ii In the crib from q
field yielding forty bushels to the acre.
The demand for wedding and invit-
alton cards is not great enough to JUS
tify US in carrying q very large stock
of such goods. But We have secured a
sample case from a Chicago paper
house, containing 250 different de-
signs, from which the most fas-
tidious taste can be suited, the only
difference being that the customer
must place his order week earlier
than would be necessary il the goods
were carried in stock. Call and look
over the samples if you are thinking of
using such goods.
Oklahoma Journal: Frank p.
Cease, formerly Of Kansas and later
police judge of Guthrie, has taken
charge of the Noble Courier as editor.
He promises to be good one. The
report was that the Courier would sus.
pend publication last week, but the
new editor remarks that il any one de-
sires to sit on the fence and see the
funeral cortege of the paper go by, to
pick out q stone fence. as q wooden one
would rot down before the Obsequies
take place. That's the right spirit.

guage Last week was the time for

Mr.. R. Hurd on Tuesday turned ov-
er his stock of groceries +" his creditors
represented by w. A. COwan. Close
margins and slow collections are ac-
countable for the failure, which is gen.
orally regretted. The principal cred
itors are w. A. Cowan, Beatty Bros
d Lakin, of Ft. Scptt, and a Kansas
City grocery house. The stock will
fall somewhat short of meeting the
entire Indebtedness.
