EASE AND DISEASE
4 Short Lesson on the Meaning

Disease is the opposite of ease.
Webster defues disease as "lack
of ease, uneasinesa, trouble, vexa-
ton, disquiet.'' It is a condition
due to some arrangement Of the
physical organism. a vast major
ity of the disease" from which
people suffer is due to impure

cured by Hood sSarsaparilla which
purifes, eDricheS and vitalizes the
blood. Hoods Sarsaparllla cures
scrofuIa, salt rheum, pimples and
all eruptions. 1t tones the stom-
ach and creates a good appetite,
and it gives vigor and vitality to
the whole body. 1t reverses the
condition of things, giving health,

bay in 1887. and in 1914, under the super
vision Of the Franciscan monks, the
erection Of d Gordon of mission buildings
was commenced. These structures were
designed to serve both as places of war
ship and as forts. 1t was while work
was progressing on these buildings that
the monks noticed that the natives wore
a profusion of crudely fashioned silver
ornaments, and wi en- questioned upon
this subject, the natives-many Of whom
were employed on the buildings-told the
monks that the silver they wore was pro-
cured from the big hills ten days jour

ported to Spain and a number of expert
enced miners were sent over from that
country, and guided by the natives they
reached the Wichita mountains, where
they found silver in large quantities but
only traces of gold. The pamphlet goes
on to state that the Spanish mined silver
in those mountains until 1857, during
which time they smelted and shipped TO

BOYS AWFUL DEATH
Bodies of Two Who Disap-
peared Last August
DISCOVERED IN A CLOSET.
With Outside Spring Lock, in
an Unused House.

New York, Feb B.-Plumbers working
in an unoccupied house on Edgecombe
avenue today found in a closet the. le-
composed bodies OF two boys. They we-e
identified by their parents as Martin
L.oefler. aged 9. and Charles Byrnes. aged
IL They had been missing since August
3 last, when they left their homes. near
By, saying they were going to pick apples.
The building in which the bodies were
found is a flat-house and has never been
occupied When It was completed ii was
locked up and all that remained 10 be
done on it was the plumbing. This af-
teruoon two plumbers entered the house
and were almost overcome with the
strong odor They opened a closet hailt
into the wall and there found the bodies
of the boys The door has a spring lock
and had no knob inside so that 4 per-
son entering and closing the door would
be unable 20 get out again until Il was
opened from the outside. The body Ct
Loefier was without clothing; that Of
Byrnes was clothed only in trousers.
1t is supposed the boys were playing
hide-and-seek and went into the closet
and closed the door, The closet is so
built that person shut in it could cry
at the top of his voice and he would be
as remote from aid as though he were
buried a mile underground. There was
bruise on Byrnes forehead as though in
his frenzy he had dashed his head against
the door.
The whole city was serached for the
boys last August, their pictures published
in the newspapers and the river dragged,
and their parents had given up all hope
of ever hearing from them.

NO SAVING OF LUMBER
Kick From Cherokee Country on
Recent Order.

Guthrie, o. T, Feb. 13,-The Collinsville
News makes d vigorous kick on a recent
order prohibiting the saving up Of any
timber in the Cherokee nation. The News
says; IF any one should imagine that
even the native citizei has any rights
here on this their own heritage let them
listen a few moments The News is
against establishing an empire in the In
dian Territory and placing at its head
an emperor where neither land title, lac
or anything else is to be had save the
voice Of one man. Read the following
from the Fort Gibson Post:
As a practical example which just
occurred here in the vicinity Of Fort Glib
son: Several Cherokee citizens, among
the number Postmaster Ross, had lot
of deadened timber in their Enclosure
which they wanted taken off, and found
the best way was to have the logs sawed
into lumber, the same to be used in fenc-
ing and other purposes on the farm. The
business OF saving had proceeded but a
few days when orders were received from
Agent Wright of Muskogee that work
must cease or heavy penalties follow A
good number Of logs have been cut and
are now on the ground. but according to
this order they can not be cut into lum-

the land is cultivated. There are q num-
