How Different
Men Are Today

In the olden times, so we are told,
men spent NOSE of their time fighting
for country or for love of the primitive
maid whose beauty was of that womanly
sort which inspired in the heart Of her
manly lover such a passion that he
thought it a pleasure to die for her.
In those days men were not faint
hearted nor weak-nerved.
They did not know of the ruinous
habits which are responsible for our
weak, debilitated men of today, the
habits which drain from the body all the
energy, ambition and courage of man
hood.
Excesses. designations, youthful folly
all tend to wear out manhood. Be-
ing contrary to the laws of nature, they
sap the very foundation, the heart of
manly vigor, and leave only the shell.
the nerveless. empty frame-empty of
the life and energy of manhood

AMONG THE OIL MEN
No Meeting of Exchange Directors Yester-
6ay-price Notes

day-Price Notes
There was no meeting of the board of
directors of the oil exchange yesterday
afternoon, owing to quorum not being
present. This is the second meeting
that has been passed on account of slim
attendance, and interest in the exchange
seems to be on the wane. A great deal
of dissatisfaction exists among the oil
men in regard to the methods of the
organization. which. combined with the
steady decrease of production in the
field, tends to minimize the influence
welded by the exchange. The price re-
mains at SIPS TO. b., or s1:15 at the wells.

Ever and anon some new discovery
is made by scientists which astonishes
the world. A French savant now comes
to the front with the astonishing theory
that we are sleeping wrong. He says
that to sleep in the old fashioned way,
with ones head on pillow, is simply to
invite disease and death. This may be
true, as undoubtedly more people die in
bed with pillows under their head than
any other way. The proper way to
have bed made, declares the French
scientist, is to have the pillow placed
under the feet. In this way the sleep
will be more refreshing; It will be found
cure for insomnia, and of vast benefit
TO those afflicted with lung trouble.
