A FURTHER ARGUMENT.

Come with the New Road.

Come With the New Road.
Judge Furman is very much in
terested in the proposition made
TO Ardmore by the Choctaw COM
pany and is always ready to point
out the advantages that will accrue
70 Ardmore from the construction
OF this road. and to point moral
in case Ardmore allows her oppor-
tunity to pass unimproved. By
request, he has furnished the fol-
lowing statement for publication
in addition to what has already
been published:
Railroads are like mems passions
good servants, but bad masters.
When a town has only one rail-
road it has a master, because the
road having a monopoly can do as
it pleases. The number of roads
coming TO q town does not neees-
sarily affect the question of freight
rates. Several roads may pass
through. town, but if they all
have the same general connections
and the same common centers of
commerce. there will be no COM
petition between them. On the
contrary they will have unity of
interests and will combine together.
But this is not the case where 6
town has two or more roads which
have independent connections and
which are working in the interest
Of rival trade centers. This mat
ter should. not be overlooked by
our people in considering the pro-
position submitted to them by the
Choctaw road. The connecting
lines with this road are all inde-
pendent. Of or antagonistic to the
Santa Fe road. The Santa Fe
and It's connecting lines are inter
ested in hauling freight north and
south. The Choctaw and its con-
Meeting lines are interested in
hauling freight east aud west.
Here is q necessary conflict of in
ferest which cannot be harmonized
and which necessarily results
IN competition, and competition is
what we must have if we get
cheaper freight rates.
i spoke the other day of the ad-
vantaegs which would aecure to
our people from this competition
i'm, the matter OF rates on grain.
There is another matter worthy of
consideration. The Choctaw runs
through the pine forests of Ark
ansas. If it comes to Ardmore
our people will be placed in direct
communication with this lumber
center. At present most OF the
lumber must be shipped over at
least two roads before it can reach
Ardmore. This means that two
roads collect freight from lumber
sold in Ardmore. This explains
the high price we have to pay for
lumber. The result has been that ,
people living near Ardmore have
purchased their lumber from mar
kets at greater distance from

MASSAGE FOR THE FACE.
When Properly Administered 1t ID
Boon to the Skin and Improves
the Complexion.

No woman, however regular her fea-
lures or charming her form, is beauti-
full if her complexion be bad Tho
complexion is the keystone of good
looks.
One of the reasons little children
are so sweet is that they have such
peachy kissable compilations.
You can, perhaps, on poor, ill-used
digestion and miserable circulation,
bolster up an artificial complexion for
a night. But it deceives nobody. The
woman with a muddy, wrinkled skin
must go to the root of the evil.
She must attend to her general
health. Let her see to her Digestion.
take plenty of exercise, eat whole,
some food, and neither too much nor
too little of that; battle regularly and
well every day-in a word, observe the
ordinary rules of health. Then it will
be time to begin what is called local
treatment of the skin.
1t is very difficult to lay down posi-
tive rules that every woman should
follow for her individual complexion.
What benefits one skin is downright
ruin to another. Some skins thrive
on drastic scrubbing; others need
tender care. Facial massage, properly
administered, is n boon to the skin,
but no woman should ever attempt to
manipulate her face without thor
oughly understanding how it should
be done. The flesh around the chin
and under the eyes must be touched
with light, firm movement; that OF
the forehead and checks will stand
stronger manipulation. The checks
are lneaded firmly with the thumb
and first finger of both hands.
However, the woman who would do
her own facial massage ought first to
go to a reliable masseur or masseuse
and watch carefully how the opera
ton is performed.-N. Y. World.

then be used as a model upon which
to secure perfect fit. The canvas
cover underneath is used to prevent
the elastic material from being pierced
by pins or other fastening devices when
fitting the pieces for the garment over
the lining. Provision has been made
by the inventor, woman, Ella NJ.
Schrader, Of Seattle, Wash, to reen-
force the portions of the lining where
il is apt to expand unduly. An elastic
belt, adjustable to any size, which en-
circles the waist portion of the body,
prevents undue expansion at this
point. When the average woman's
dread Of having to stand for dress
fitting is remembered, the boon that
Miss Schrader has conferred upon fem

But it is not so. They bring to the
men who work with them large
part of the annual income of the
world. Sea weeds are of all sorts and
sizes, from the microscopic fioaters to
the giant sea-tangle, which grows to
a height of 360 feet and upon which
myriads of marine animals live. They
make this monster sea weed both
home and food. They live upon it,
in it, and it is their sole dependence.
When these sea-weeds are taken
from their anchorage on some stone,
millions upon millions of minute an
imals are killed whose existence would
not be known but for the microscope.
Many kinds of sea weeds are used in
commerce for the manufacture of
soda, iodine, bromine, and gelatinous
extracts. In Scotland horses and cat
tie are fed upon sea weeds during the
winter months. Moreover, sea weeds
are used in abundance for upholster-
ing furniture, instead of Eorsehair.
They are used by packers for wrap
ping delicate objects, and chemists
obtain from them chlorides, silicates,
sulphates, phosphates and carbonates.
The sea weeds draw these valuable
materials from the sea water upon
which they live. apparently by abb
sorption, but really by the well-known
process of osmosis.
But did you ever hear of human be-
ings eating sea weeds? 1t is fact.
Tens of thousands of tons of sea
weeds are gathered along the coast
of China and Japan every year. They
are packed in bales, just as our peo-
pie bale hay, and are carried to all

The students not only excused his

when his remains were taken to the

distant city they accompanied the

interesting library which would re-

most numberless sorts are made from
fish scales. They furnish adornments
for the women in savage and semi-sav-
age life, as well as for the refined and
cultured ladies dwelling in the higher
circles of modern society in all civilized
nations. Fish scales furnish paint and

pies, "beauty-spots" for the cheeks,
and all sort OF feminine artificial adorn-
ment The Chinese have long had
method of grinding up certain kinds of
fish scales and using the dry pigment
as the basis of paints for women and
for the arts.
But not only are the scales used, but
also the skins. We have all seer ALI
gator skins made up into shoes. Eel
skins are used everywhere for the
thongs of whips. Dried sole skins are
used to clarity coffee. Shark and ray
skins produce shagreen leather. Whale
skins are manipulated into bands GO

the Red sea are used in Egypt for the
Soles of shoes and sandals. The Turks
