The anthem by the choir, 1.-THE Lord is My

THE FINGER PURSE.
Adaptation to the Needs of Women
of "A Coin Holder for
Men.

Eyes" said the artist in leather
goods, looking lovingly at finger
purse he held in his hand, says the
New York Sun, st is beauty and
81 is small price for it. It's the
latest thing in finger purses. Curious,
isn't it, how that particular kind of
| purse came into favor. 1t wasn't an
invention, you know, simply an adap-
tation. We have had finger purses
in this shop for 40 years, but we
didn't call them finger purses, though.
You've seen men use them hundred
times.
That's the original of the finger
purse" he continued, taking from
the show case a leather purse similar
to the one he held in his hand, but
smaller. "This is what men have
been using. The English form of it,
from which probably we borrowed
ours, is called buckslxin. The buck
skin has no strap by which to hold
it, though. Now, just trace the evolu-
tion of the finger purse 1t was
adopSed in the first place from Eng
land and in our edition of it was fur
nished with strap. The mans
purse, you see, has no pocket in the
back, and the compartment in the
inside is without gusset, see? It is
stitched close to the back. The idea
was to use it only for silver. The
cross strap was meant simply to hold !
the flap down. But one day some
absent-minded woman, playing with
one of these purses, slipped the strap
over her forefnger, saw the conven-
ienec of it and straightway turned |
an accidental discovery into fad.
"At first women had to take mems /
purses as they found them. A woman
can't resist the temptation of stufinp
her pocketbook with all sorts of
things. She puts her cards into it
first, then slips in the address that
her friend gives her in the street.
She must have in it, too, the bill she
is going to pay that morning, and
where is she going to put the half I
dozen samples she has culled out of
the stores as the result of morn
ing's work, if not in her pocketbook?
The finger purse was not adapted to
such usage, so gussets were put in to
allow stretching room for the COM
partments. The next improvement
was made this year. Manufacturer. 8
saw that coin pocket inside, shut {
ting with a clasp, would render the {
little purse much more practical, and
now almost any finger purse you -,
has that pocket

OF GREAT IMPORTANCE.

The most important matter dis
cussed at the Indian Territory
Medical society's recent session at
South McAlester, says the Ameri-
can Journal Of Surgery, was the
total absence of any government
establishment for the treatment of
the insane or care for the feeble-
minded of the territory. The con-
dition of affairs in some parts of
the territory is something terrible
worse than anything heard of in
the dark ages: the insane chained
to posts in log huts and without
medical attention; or at best in
carcerated in prisons with felons.
Those less violent, though often
dangerous to the people, are al
lowed to roam about the country
without estraint-indeed there is
doubt whether the present law in
most of the nations provides for
their restraint. 1t is estimated
that $50 of these unfortunates are
to be found in the five tribes-all |
needing hospital care and
treatment, not to mention the
probably larger number of epilep-
tics and imbeciles who should be
the special wards of the United
States government instead of dis
grace to twentieth century civiliza.

If congress should decide to :
lot the Cherokee nation by acreage
instead of by appraisement the
agreement is as good as dead now.
The Cherokee people will never
consent to a division that is so
manifestly unjust as to ignore the
rights Of those who from any cause
have not got in possession of their
prorata share Of good land. Many
small children of Cherokee parents
would thus be deprived Of land up
on which to build homestead,
their birthright practically, by al
lotment by acreage.

zionist members of the city cour
ell, as those who understand th
ownership OF the paper suppose
BOuld be the case.
In long, vague editorial evi
IDENTIFY submitted to other than tn
editor for approval, an absolutel.
untrue reason is given for the an
asgonism to public progress o
HOoley Bells three, and possibly
Jour, votes.
The opening paragraph of thu
remarkable defense reads: "Thost
Who have been opposing the pass
age of the waterworks is one OF the
bene6ciaries of the legislation fav.
Dred by himself"
This is remarkably clear, per-
baps, to minds that are Hooley
Bellized but we confess our density
when we admit that we cannot
comprehend its meaning. Perhaps
il is in keeping with the Leaders
school Of rhetoric, an evidence of
kbeir new grammatical rules of ex-
preston having been given the
public some time ago when, in re-
porting an attempted safe blowing
nj Ratcliff's mill, it said; "There
was no money in the safe but
books"
The true reason of Statesman
Bells antagonism is hidden be
hind the assertion that he opposes
a waterworks franchise because, as
now proposed, the sum of $500 is
annually for the city's
use of ten fire plugs. Did States
man Bell ever know Of the build
ing of waterworks in any town
Df the size of Vinita where simi-
lar clause was not included in the
hanchise? Most cities and towns
hat do not own their own systems
pay more than $50 a year rental
per plSg, and in many instances
pay as high as 500 per plug.
The Leader article contains this
"Abuse is not argu-
Oent and this paper will not stoop
o use it, The truth is ever a
ood argument and the Chieftain
mploys it always.
The truth is what is hurting
Iooley Bell now in his effort to
gain fasten his tenacles upon the
,nds of the taxpayers, and it sur
rises no one that the Leader and
nose who wear the collars OF the
ould-be boss defend him.
"Some people would like for a
'wn to legislate money into their
ockets-they don't mind paying
xes when the money returns to
Ieir own MILL" This is another !
Tidence of the wisdom of the ,
sader's philosophy.
