in politics, but that is no legal reason
for any Republican scratching the
state or county ticket. If you favor
Roosevelt and his policy you should
make it, known by casting a straight
ballot for the candidates who, if elect
ed, will assist him in carrying out his
policy. Republicans of Trego county,
vote the state and county ticket

Why Diseases Become Chronic.
Nerve Force Regarded by
Scientists as More Import
ant Than the Blood,
A $4.oo TREATMENT FREE,

The blood was formerly regarded as
the life-giving principle and to its con-
dition was attributed all that there was
OF health or illness. Now, psychologists
know that nerve force and vitality are
the same, and that the constitution,
good or bad, depends upon nerve force.
Nerve force controls all motion, SEN
sation, digestion and nutrition. An
abundance of this subtle energy means
health and vgor; lack of it causes
general debility, nervous prostration,
premature decline, disease and death.
Nerve force is chiefly generated 10 the
brain, and therefore in the treatment
of all lingering diseases the condition
OF the brain centers should be carefully
considered and treated. One great
cause OF diseases becoming chronic is
that physicians overlook the fact that
deficiency of nerve force is the chief
cause of most diseases Nervous pros
tration is due to lack of nerve force.
DR.. Miles Neuropathic Treatments
strengthen and invigorate the nerve
centers. They are the result of twenty
five years careful study, extensive re-
search and remarkable success. They
build up the system by increasing nerve
force, and have won for Dr. Miles the
thanks OF thousands of sufferers.
Mrs. A. Kronck of Huntington, Ind, was
cured after thirty physicians failed; Mrs. Flora
Graetor of Bristolville, o, after twenty-five;
Jas. X. Waite, the noted actor, after score
had pronounced him incurable; Mrs. Frank
Smith of Chicago, after five leading physic-
ians had given her up; Mrs Julius Kester of
Chicago. after ten; Mrs. h. Parker after six
teen failed.
The treatments are not generally ad-
vertised, but every chronic sufferer is
invited to write for DR.. Miles free book

of treatment especially prepared for
each case will be sent free as a trial.

Mrs. Mary Lee Stark, the president,
invited ten women to spend the after
noon with them.
celebrating their respective birthdays.
The occasion proved exceedingly en-
joyable.
No one there was under sixty years
of age. Mrs. Godat is eighty years old,
while Mrs Stark is in her sixty-ninth
year.
The occasion suggested club life as
it was everywhere being talked about
by women, and then and there these
twelve women constituted themselves
members of one body, to be hereafter
known as the Sixty club.
1t has ever since been the custom of
the members to come together at reg
ular intervals in one another's house
and devote the time to intercourse of a
purely social nature.
The doyen of the club, Mrs. Cath
arine HORNE Godat, was born ut Rich
wood, Washington county, Mo-, July
20, 1922, and she left st. Louis for
Laramie on the day of the Chicago
fire
The baby of the flock is Mrs. Kate
Parsons Foote, who was born in st.
Louis in 1910. Mrs. Foote moved to
Laramie in 1891. She is said to pos
sess the energetic temperament which
is characteristic of every member of
the Beecher family, to which she Is
closely related.
The president of the club. Mary Lee
Stark, was born at Guilford, Conn.
Mrs. Stark moved to Cheyenne, Wyo.,
In 1869. Her brother, General e. N.
Lee, was at that time the first secre
tary of the territory and acting gov
ernor during the illness of the chief
executive. Mrs Stark has been a resi-
dent of Laramie since 1899 and is
prominent in missionary and church
work. She is likewise the author of
several books, and is newspaper wo-
man as well. She was the first woman
voter of the state of Wyoming, which
some years ago gave the right of fran
chise to women.

the most curious social organization in
existence.
1t is woman's club, and to be eligi-

No woman under sixty will be con-
sidered no matter by whom her name

In this day of woman's clubs the Six
ty club, which is the newest in pur-
pose, is deserving of marked attention.
The club consists of twelve women,
all of whom are over sixty years Of
age. They have been learning that
years count for nothing in this the wo-
mans century.
One fact about this newest body Of
clubwomen is that their circle has nev-
er been broken into. Withdrawal and

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

Dwarf pear trees are valuable be-
cause they bear early.
Plotting Of hyacinths and tulips for
winter blooming may be done at any
time now.
Good, straight stems are desirable in
the young apple pear or other trees,
but plenty of clean, bright roots is Of
greater Importance.
Select stocky trees with rather low
heads. If they have plenty of side
shoots, all the better, as these indicate
plenty Of good roots.
The family orchard, unlike the COM
mercial orchard, requires good many
varieties in order to furnish good sup
ply all through the season.
Moses and lichens adhering to the
bark of trees are parasitic. They take
nourishment from the trees, and work
an injury by affording a hiding place
for vermin and by shutting out the
light.

FORGING A FASHION.
How Hats Were Introduced to the
South African Snvages.


Andries De Villlers, Boer, was the
person who first introduced hats among
the South African natives, says the
Hatters' Gazette, and profit not phil
lanthropy, was his motive. One morn
ing many years ago he CHANGED in Port
Elizabeth to come across consign-
ment of damaged hats offered for a
mere song. He bought the whole lot,
packed them away in his wagon and
started for Kaffirland.
When he reached Tembuland, he un-
loaded his stock, opened his kegs Of LID
uor, without which no trade was made
in those days, and began business. But
he found his venture likely to prove an
Improbable one The natives did not
want hats. They wanted blankets and
beads and looking glasses and above
all liquor, but they looked askance at
hats. Then a bright idea came to An
dries. He wanted to introduce those
hats. He did introduce them. His sim
pie eXpedient was to refuse to sell any
thing to a Kaffir unless he bought a
hat too. The Kaffirs wanted his goods,
so they bought the hats.
When Kaffir buys anything, he
feels bound to make use of it. The ma
tlves therefore donned their head gear
and returned to their kraals. Now ap-
peared the brilliancy of the traders
idea. Fashion rules the world. 1t is as
strong In Africa as in America, and
when those who had stayed at home
saw the travellers return in all the glo-
ry of this strange covering they felt
behindhand and old fashioned. Their
desire to possess the latest thing in
hats became intense. They paid An
dries visit, and his stock no longer
hung heavy upon his hands. The hats
were soon sold.
This happened some time ago, and
now every trading store keeps supply
of hats constantly on hand. They are
said to be manufactured expressly for
the natives, and no one who glances at
the show will doubt it.
