TAKE A GOOD DAILY PAPER.
\ The Review Offers One for Small
Sum.

The rural mail delivery to commence
in August makes it especially profit
able for the farmers to have a daily
paper. The Review comes forward to
help them in this matter. 1t has look.
ed the field over carefully and has de-
,.cided upon the Omaha Daily News as
the best and cheapest paper in the west
for the busy man and for the farmer.
1t contains the grist of the days news
boiled down to suit the requirements
of an active busy people, it contains
the complete market reports and it
reaches Denison in time so that it will
reach the farmer at his home each
morning and tell him the news of the
day before. The Review will give all
the details of the life and happenings
of Denison and Crawford county. Its
correspondence service is to be in
creased rather than diminished and it
. will continue to be the best local paper
lin the county. We congratulate the
people of the county upon this oppor-
tunity now offered them to obtain a
daily paper and the home news all for
the low sum 49, 30. The grand guessing
contest is explained in the'large adver
tisement. The capital prize is $500000.
We hope it may come to some reader of
the Review. 1t would be fine thing
and there are many smaller prizes some
of which will surely be earned by in
telligent Review readers. 1t is not a
lottery scheme. No charge is made for
the right to guess and the decision is
not by chance but is given strictly to
the one making the closest guess. Read
the advertisement closely, study up
the vote and the usual percent of de-
crease in an off year and make an in
teligent guess. 1t costs nothing and
may gain you fortune.

Special Train Service.

The North Western has arisen to the
emergency and has grs snted Denison
special train service and low rates for
the Fourth. The Chicago special will
stop at Dunlap. Dow City and Arion
for Denison passengers on the morning
OF the Fourth and a special train at
1880 p. m. will take all the passengers

cept for the return trip. The North
Western will run special train to ac-
commodate passengers to Vail, West
Side, Arcadia, Maple River Jc. and
Carroll. This train will leave late in
the evening, giving everyone oppor-
tunity to see all the fun. A special

ing at lOa. m. and returning at 10 D.
m. 1t will be abig day in Denison.
The ball game and the open air cir

WHEN WAS A Roy.

Up in the attic where / slept
When 1 was boy-a little boy
In through the lattice the moonlight crept.
Bringing tide OF dreams that swept
Over the low. red trundle-bed,
Bathing the tangled curly head,
While moonbeams PLAYED at hide and seek
With the dimples on each sun-browned cheek
when I was boy-a little boy!
And. o, the dreams. the dreams dreamed
When was boy-a little boy.
For the grace that through the lattice streame'
over my folded eyelids seemed
To have the gift Of prophecy,
And TO bring me glimpses Of time to be
Where manhood's clarion seemed to call,
All. that was the sweetest dream Of all
When was a boy-a little boy!
I'D like to sleep where used to sleep
When ! was boy-a little boy!
For In at the lattice the moon would peep,
Bringing her tide of dreams to sweep
The crosses and griefs of the years away
From the heart that is weary and faint to-day.
And those dreams should give me back again
The peace have never known since then
When ! was boy-a little boy!

Two young men, brothers, who we're
educated in Mississippi schools and
who live in McComb, may be pointed
out as examples of success on securing
an industrial education. One took up
electricity, and the other served an
apprenticeship in cotton factory.
Today one is superintendent and gen
eral manager of large electric light
plant and telephone exchange with
over six hundred subscribers, and the
other is secretary and treasurer of the
McComb City Cotton Mills, and both
are yet quite young. We refer, with

FREE FROM MOSQUITOES.
How Captain Martin Got Rid of Pests
at the Barracks.

at the Barracks.
Capt. John T. Martin, out at the
Barracks, says that it is no trick at all
to get rid of mosquitoes. 1t is Just as
easy as buying flour, according to
Captain Martin.
I'VE have not had mosquito this
summer" he said yesterday, land we
have had screened all the houses.
Long before the War Department is
sued the order giving officers authority
to use crude petroleum in the effort to
rid the various posts of mosquitoes we
had been using it, and we found out
that it would do the work very effectu-
ally. In fact, it is such good remedy
that now we never hear of mosquito
at the post.
"The method is very simple. Twice
every month we take cupful of com
mon coal oil, or kerosene, and pour it
on the surface of each cistern. This
oil does not i'll any way interfere with
our getting pure water, because the
water that We draw comes from be-
meath the oil. We have never got
drop of oil in the water yet, and we do
not expect to as long as there is water
enough below the oil to draw bucket
full. The oil will remain on the top
for an indefinite length of time. How
long a cupful of oil will last we do not
know, but we have adopted the practice
Of putting oil on twice a month, be
cause we thought that this was neces-
sary i'll order to preserve the germ de
stroying qualities of the petroleum.
But it may be that the oil would have
accomplished the same purpose if it
had been put on Just once month.
81 know one thing, and that is that
coal oil will kill mosquitoes | have
corralled several thousand mosquitoes
and tried the oil on them, and it inva-
riably killed them. Just as soon as
they get the fumes they go off some
place and die. And they die very
quickly There is nothing slow abont
the effect of the oil. 1t seems to take
hold III the right spot, and it acts with
out delay. The mosquito gets a Whit
of it, and he is dead
THE department is going to try
crude oil. We have had no experience
with crude oil here, but | do not see
why it would not kill the mosquitoes
Just as rapidly, if not faster, than the
refined oil. | understand that the
crude oil has great quantity of as
phaltum in it, and this being true, it
ought to be much more effective than
refined oil. So far as this post is con
cerned we do not need any kind of oil
for more than two weeks for the reason
that there is not a mosquito on the
place now.
There were lots of mosquitoes here
last spring. We were literally eaten
up by them, when | heard that oil
would kill them. We might get some
benefit out of the oil. Certainly it
could not make matters any worse, SO
tried it, with the success that have
described | regard oil as the great
insect destroyer of this generation, and
| think that the more it is used the
more its usefulness will be appre-
ciated. - Times Democrat

Sixty school teachers out of the 400
who left San Francisco for the Philip
pines to take charge of schools, were
married on going ashore at Honolulu.
All were utter strangers when they set
sail, but association brought about the
numerous love affairs within the ten
days trip. The captain of the vessel
steeled his heart and would permit no
marriages on board.

low. Buggy and mules were lost.

Women of Sherman, Texas, are
threatening the saloons with Ratchet
fulisade, if they do not close on Sun
days. Difference to the predictions
of "our fair Southern women" and
our much Wanted Southern chivalry'
may manifest themselves in all things
else; but they stop shorts before the
American saloon. Women and their
wishes and men and their morals must
bow alike the knee to Baal, or be
driven to desperation, as are the women
of Sherman. The liquor traffic is in
herently evil and licentious.

head of gratifying showing Figur-

two per cent. it says "a multiplicity of
reasons could be perhaps offered for
this gratifying state of affairs One
reason is enough-it isn't so. The
true figures give out a black gain, in
stead, of 4.03 per cent. If the C.-L.,
