1t is not until we have passed

In India, the land OF famine: thous-
ands die because they cannot obtain
food. In America, the land of plenty,
many suffer and die because they can
not digest the food they eat Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure digests what you eat.
1t instantly relieves and radically cures
all stomach trouble.

Order is the sanity of the mind,
the health Of the body, the peace
of the city, the security of the
State. AS the beams of a house,
$50 is order to all things.
Millions will be spent in politics this
year. We can't keep the campaign 60
ing without money any more than we
can keep the body vigorous without
food. Dyspeptics used to starve them
selves. Now KOdOl Dyspepsia Cure

eat all the good food you want. 1t rad
ically cures stomach trouble.

No man undertakes a trade he

The wolf in the fable put on sleeps
clothing because if he travelled on his
own reputation he couldn't accomplish
his purpose. Counterfeiters Of DeWitt's
Witch Hazel Salve couldn't sell their
worthless salves on their merits, so
they put them in boxes and wrappers
like DeWtt's. Look out for them.
Take only DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve.
1t cures piles and all skin diseases.
G. NJ. Crosby.
"I'm sat upon SO much" said
the chair, ,"no wonder I've got
my back up.
Chinese are dangerous enemies, for
they are treacherous. That's why all
counterfeiters of DeWitt's Witch Hazel
Salve are dangerous. They look like
DeWitt's, but instead of the all-heal-
ing witch hazel they all contain ingre-
dients liable to irritate the skin and
cause blood poisoning. For piles, in
juries and skin diseases use the original
and genuine DeWitt's Witch Hazel
Salve. G.. NJ. Crosby.

The question of the education OF
non citizens, and citizens too, is
being solved in at least one incor-
porated town in the Indian Terri
tory. There is now no reason why
single child red, white or black,
should grow up in ignorance in
Vinita. The laws have done about
all that law can do for incorpo-
rated towns anywhere, and each
town in the Indian Territory
should take care of its own educa-
tional interests. The town that
does not establish and maintain
graded free school is simply be-
hind the age and legislation can
not help such community very
much. All this cry about better
educational advantages for the
towns of the territory comes from
towns that are not progressive
enough to incorporate under the
federal laws, and they are con-
stantly whining about schools for
the poor whites of the Indian Ter
ritory. 1t is a source of pride to
be able to state that Vinita has a
fine graded school, free to every
resident of the town, and free to
Cherokee families outside of the
town within u radius of three
miles. Come to Viniia.

The Increase IN the Number Worn
Not an Evidence OF Degenern-
tion OF the Eyes.

The question is often asked. particu-
larly by those who can recall the GUS
toms and experiences Of 20 years ago;
"Why do 50 many persons nowadays
wear glasses?" The answer is easy;
"The increase in the number OF spec
tacles worn Is not 10 be regarded as an
evidence Of modern degeneration Of the
eyes, but rather that long-felt ne
cessity has been met" For II should
be remembered that within the past
quarter OF century much has been
learned about the value OF glasses, and
the range Of their application and use
fulness has been enormously extended.
OF course, the eyes need more help now
than formerly, as the amount of work
they are required TO do is much greater
than at any previous period in the
worlds history. The sewing machine
and many other inventions Of its class
save the labor Of the hands only TO add
to that required of the eyes, says Lip
pincotts.
New employments, new amusements
and new fashions are continually being
introduced TO increase the exactions laid
upon these sensitive and delicate or
gans. The steady decrease of illiteracy,
together with the general cheapness Of
literature and spread Of taste for II,
the enormous circulation of novels,
magazines and newspapers, the ever-in-
creasing use Of artificial illumination,
all combine 10 overtax the eyes and to
weaken or possibly destroy the sight
unless the required aid and protection
be supplied through every means at our
disposal. Thus 1t happens that the
sometime luxury Of properly adjusted
glasses has come 10 be recognized and
understood by very many of the present
generation as one of the real necessi-
ties of their lives

TIE CHILDREN OF DREYFUs.
Singular Manner in which They Dis
covered the Truth About
Their Father.

A pathetic incident connected with
the Dreyfus trial is given by the Paris
correspondent of London Truth.
Among the anxieties of the wife of
the prosecuted man not the least was
her fear that her children should learn
the terrible fate of their father. To pre-
vent this, during all the years of his
Imprisonment, she kept them under her
own eye, not allowing them to go to
school or play with other children,
teaching them herself and going with
them in their walks. The oldest boy,
who was nine years of age, never saw
newspaper.
But while they were at the seaside
the boy found on the beach torn kite
made of old newspapers. He read them
and went to his nurse.
'Ah, now | know why my papa is SO
long gone!" he said, showing them an
article headed: Facts of the Dreyfus
Affair.""
''There are many Dreyfuses in Paris"
the woman stammered.
"But not many Capt. Alfred Dreyfuses
whose wives are named Jucie. ] know
now why she cries at night" cried the
boy, sobbing. "She should have told
me SO that could go to help my father"
In the sufferings Of this man, so great
that the world has stood aghast before
them as at new horrors in history, God
gave him the steady, faithful love of
his brothers, his wife and his children.

groorns.

A Wisconsin paper reports an Indians
remarkable escape from death. He was
one of q driving crew that broke big
jam above Sturgeon Falls. He attempt
ed TO cross the river on log, and TO
the horror of the spectators, was car
ried over the falls. The falls are 40
feet high, and consist of two pitches
and the rapids. OF course the man was
given up for dead, and the driving crew
thought it useless to search the river
for his body, as the logs were piling over
the falls al a rapid rate. The next
morning, however, the Indian walked
into camp for breakfast. He had been
swept down the river and up against the
bank, where he managed TO crawl out.
Finding only few scratches and
bruises, but being. as he remarked,
rather tired" he lay down and slept
until daylight, and'was none the worse
for his adventure.

A NEW HORSE FARE.
The Curiosity of the Man Who Saw
Bread Delivered nj Stable
Was Satisfied.

A delivery wagon of one of the big
breadbaking factories of Yorlkville
stopped in front of an uptown livery
and boarding stable the other morn
ing, and two men at once unloaded
barrels Of bread and carried them into
the stable, says the New York Jour
nal. The bread looked good, and was
good. There were all sorts and sizes
of loaves in the barrels homemade" )"
rye" Vienna" potato" graham"
and "cottage."
The curiosity Of man who saw
the bread being delivered to the stable
was aroused, and he ventured to ask
the proprietor of the stable what it
meant.
There's nothing remarkable about
it," said the proprietor. with a laugh.
Il simply buy it for horse feed. We
grind the bread up and mix it with
other feed, and it makes frst-class
food for horses. 1t is stale bread and
costs us 40 cents a barrel, and there
are so or 60 loayes to the barrel; so
you see it comes pretty cheap. Some
of the bread is only day old, and is
good enough for any map to eat;
but the bread factories cannot sell it.
What you see here are returned loaves
from the groceries. I'll bet there is
many a soldier who would like to
have had as good bread in the war"

DUTCH LOVE SUNDAYS.
Four Sabbaths in November Are Fete
Days I'm the Land of DiIxes
and bitches.

The four Sundays of November are
observed as fete days in Holland.
They are known by the curious names
of Review, Decision, Purchase and
Possession, and all refer to matri-
monial affairs, November in Holland
being the month par excellence de-
voted to courtship and marriage, prob
ably because the agricultural occupa-
tions of the year are over, and pos
sibly because the lords of creation
from quite remote antiquity have rec
ognized the pleasantness of having
wives to cook and cater for them dur
ing the long winter, says the Denver
News.
On Review Sunday everybody goes
to church, and after service there is
a church parade in every village, when
the youths and maidens gaze upon
each other, but forbear to speak.
On Decision Sunday each bachelor
who is seeking a wife approaches the
maiden Of his choice with a ceremoni-
Gus bow, and from her manner of re-
spending judges whether his advances
are acceptable. Purchase Sunday the
consent Of the parents is sought if the
suit has prospered during the week.
Not till Possession Sunday, however,
do the twain appear before the world
as actual or prospective brides and
grooms.

The congressional Indian COM
mittee struck the keynote when it
suggested to the Dawes commits
sion that haste in the work would
be mighty good thing for the
common Indian and mighty bad
thing for the monopolist. That is
a lead which, if followed out, will
result in speedy solution of the
whole Indian Territory problem.

A man who has made great
deal OF money in Vinita made a
remark the other day that certain
ly did him no credit. He said
that the city board of school d.
rectors had made mistake in al
lowing Cherokee citizens outside
the limits Of the city to send to
school without paying tuition. He
said that Cherokees would settle
close around town and send their
children to school and thus avoid
paying taxes. We must say that
this is an exceedingly narrow view
to take of the matter. The Cher
okee nation is paying three teach
ers employed in the public school
and certainly that ought to silence
every objection. The man who is
afraid Of being taxed to educate
his neighbor's children is not very
public spirited, to say the least of
it.

COMING OUR WAY.

sas, comments in the following Ian
guage on the Populist "fads" which
are growing more popular every day.
Verify, Populism was not born for
naught:
The populist claim now that the
country is coming to their way of
thinking is not so absurd now as it was
once. Take the public ownership of
public utilities, for instance; dozens
and perhaps hundreds of towns all over
the country are right now making eff
forts to own their own water and light
plants. Some are even negotiating for
the purchase of their local transporta-
ton and street car line. A republican
administration in Kansas, in Kansas
where we have been fighting the theo-
rles of populism and socialism and kim
dred isms for a quarter of century.
has established binding Irvine plant,
and established it in the penitentiary
at that, to provide Irvine to sell direct
to the consumer in order to eradicate.
wipe out and destroy the middle man,
the retail dealer and the Irvine octopus.
There are many other instances that
might be cited where we have been
blowing upon the smouldering embers
of last years populist camp fire, but
these are enough to show the drift.
Were the popullsts right about these
things ten years ago. or are we wrong
about them nOw?"-Lawrence Journal.
