IT SEEMS that Senator Cullom,
the man who played his fancied re-
semblance to Lincoln as a reason
why he should be nominated for
President, is to have Gov. Tanner
as an opponent, if the election of a
Democratic legislature doesn't
knock them both out and send a
Democrat to succeed Cullom.

A ACAREFUL perusal of the leading
Republican papers shows that they
are not saying much about the
protective tariff these days. The
thoughtful editors know that there
is trouble ahead for the party, be-
cause of the difficulty-some say
impossibility-of making expan-
sion gee with protection, and that
the less they say now the less they
will have to take back hereafter.

Today's Ardmoreite presents the
best proof that Ardmore's business
public is quite up with the process
sion in the matter of increasing
trade. The best way to get GUS
toners is to invite them, the only
way to make them regular custom
ers is to treat them exactly right:
Among the new announcements
in our advertising columns today
is the quarter-page display adver-
tisement of Westheimer & Daube.
This firm has many new things to
show and sell the people. and they
tell about them in a convincing
way.
The old pioneer in Ardmore
business circles, J. S. B. Apollos,
has a similar space devoted to an
interesting trade announcement
He has lots of bargains for close
buyers.
Stevens. Kennerly & Spragins,
who are always in the push in the
hordware trade, are going to push
it along" little livelier, and so
reserve another quarter page in
which they will give some interest
ing facts in day or so.

every other disaster can't down, is

prosper.
Another business man who be.
lieves in printers ink and whose
commercial inclinations can't be
smothered by a fire loss or any
other mishap that may come, is w.
c. Downing. Will has a nice lot |
of China and glassware, and will |
give his patrons-but you'd better
read what he says.
There are other advertisers
(whose names are household words, |
who have used the ARDMORITE'
columns constantly for so long
that they can't do business with !
out advertising) who drop along in
the reading columns, You'll |
know them-and knowing them
you'll patronize them.

His Half Way Scheme.

Not long ago a Pittsburg life insur-
ance agent persuaded a Chinaman to
take out a policy of SIS, 900. The latter
had no clear idea of the transaction,
but understood that on paying the
premiums promptly he would be enti-
tied to 5000 some time. He began
bothering the agent for the money after
q couple of weeks had passed, and the
agent tried to explain to him that he
would have to die before he could get
it. The Chinaman fell down a cellar
way and was badly hurt. His friends
tried to attend to him without calling
in a doctor. When they did call one in
two days later, the doctor was angry.
"Why didn't you call Inc sooner ?" he
asked. "This mar is half dead now"
Next day the injured mans brother
was at the insurance Office with a claim
for So, 500. you're not entitled to
anything on this" said the insurance
agent, "until the man is dead"
"Doctol say him half died." an
swered the brother. "Why he no glet
lat half?"

A big down town department store
has a young man employed 70 rug
salesman who at times evinces genius
in the highest degree.
Into the store there recently came q
South Side society woman we'll known
for nervousness and a tendency to
founder about In her topics Of CONVEX
sation. She desired q rug Of a certain
size. The young man got down two or
three to show her. In the middle of
his explanation as to quality and price
she turned away and began to examine
goods on a neighboring counter. Then
she went back to the young man and
wanted to look ut some more rugs. He
started to spread n out, when she
wandered away again. When she re-
turned the third time, he had a stool
placed in nm angle of the counter and
suggested that perhaps she would be
seated while he got the rug.
When she had taken her seat, he
spread the rug so that it efectually
blocked the angle and prevented her
escape. He held up the edge Of the
rug farthest from her SO she couldn't
walk over it, and SO kept her penned
up while he explained how fine a rug
it was. She made two or three at
tempts to get down, but with NJ sue
cess, and finally bought the rug to OBJ
tain her release.-Chicago News.

Marvel of the East,

Among other feats in the east the
learning by heart Of the Koran is very
widespread. Not only men, but wom-
en- and children, cur be found who can
repeat the holy book from beginning to
end without q mistake. Taking it in
round numbers, the Koran contains,
together with the additions, which are
included in the recitation, some 10000
words. This is about the length Of IN
average up to date novel, but, unlike
the novel, there are no connecting links
the whole book being a confused and
much mutilated jumble-to enable the
reciter to remember. To make the
least error would be n deadly sin, yet
even children can 60 through it.
But this is not all. For an Arabic
child to recite the Koran is wonderful
enough, no doubt, but he understands
what he is saying-it is not to him an
unknown language-but for a child Of
another nation to recite it from begin
ming to end, without understanding the
words he is saying, is a much more
wonderful feat Of memory, and very
few of those outside Arabia who can
recite the Koran know more than a
few Of the simplest words, if they know
those,

In the Jaws of a Lion.

A lion M at it's enemy at full
speed, galloping low, and dashes a
man standing upright to the ground by
the full impact Of it's body. Major In
verarity states that "the claws and
teeth entering the flesh do not hurt as
much as you would think" but that
the squeeze given by the jaws on the
bone is really painful. When knocked
over, he was still keenly conscious and
felt none Of the dreamy sensations ex-
perienced by Livingstone.
Major Swaine, struck down by a
lioness going full gallop, was uncon-
scious for some minutes and did not
know what had happened till he found
himself standing up after the accident.
II felt no PAIN" he writes, mot, I be-
lieve, owing to any special interposi-
tlon of Providence, but simply that the
shock and loss of blood made me in
capable Of feeling it. There was no
pain for a few days, till it was brought
on by the swelling Of my arm on the
IL days ride to the coast."-Spectator.

Pretty Lively Eating.

When n grows weary Of the eternal
ices, blancmanges. charlottes and 4ud-
dings served to US year in and year out
for dessert, it is pleasant to hear Of an
innovation. A Travelled American re.
marked that she once had the felicity
of sitting down to a Japanese dinner at
which were served such dainties as
melons, ices, fruits and sea frogs. There
was in addition to these s-sets a COW
cred dish, into which, at the beginning
Of the dinner, a bottle of wine had been
poured.
When the sea frogs and other dainties
had been discussed, the cover of this
dish was removed, and a number of
sandhoppers, h%ilariously intoxicated and
jumping about in the widest manner,
were presented to the gaze of the aston
