FREE MEDICAL ADVICE TO WOMEN.

"Then, says the justice, this is the case of John Alexander McDoughall and -..ary Ann Eliza Smithson ct al. and ex rel, and the territory of Okla homo, ss. I, George Washington Jack son, declare and make these presents known, that personally appeared before me this day the parties hereinbefore named, who, being duly sworn, state that they will take each other in mar riage. Therefore, by the authority vested in me by the constitution of Oklahoma, I pronounce you man and wife. And let no man put you asunder. You owe me 8.
 Thus does the Oklahoma justice of the peace rise to the requirements of a people who have no time for the con- ventionalities. Later on, when they shall have succeeded in building up the empire, and when they may indulge themselves in more leisure, doubtless they will demand that more ceremonial shall be thrown around affairs of this kind. but for the present the simple ritual followed in Enid meets every want and is sufficiently binding to sat isfy the most punctilious sticklers for legal form.-Chicago Inter-Ocean.

TYING THE. KNOT IN ENID.
Oklahoma Justices of the Peace Be- lieve in Expediting Business
 of All Kinds.

In Oklahoma, as everywhere else throughout the southwest, here there is little time for the practice of con ventionalities and little disposi- tion to encourage them, the demand is for men who are capable of rising on short notice to every emergency. The f1ourishing little town of Enid is an example. There the majority of the people are so busily engaged in lay ing the foundation stones of an empire that they have little time to bestow upon matters of a purely social or sen- timental nature. Somebody, however, must at Id to the less serious af- fairs of the community, and that there may be no cause for complaint on this score justice of the peace is elected periodically. whose duty it is to pick up and shoulder all the responsibilities that his fellow-citizens feel like shak- ing off. Among other things, he is required to perform marriage cere- monies. And he is expected to perform them with as little delay as possible Simplicity and expedition are the main considerations, for the contracting par ties are usually in hurry to get back to their respective vacations, labor be- ing the most precious thing in the ter ritory that hopes at an early day to become sovereign state.
 Hence the ritual compiled by Justice Shoemaker, ope of the earliest of the general utility officials of Enid, is still closely adhered to-. A couple enters the justices office. The expectant groom makes known the object of the visit The justice goes to the door of his of- flee and cries: Come into court" Two or three citizens respond These act as witnesses. The happy pair are com manded to join hands, and the justice proceeds:
 John Alexander McDoughall, do you take Mary Ann Eliza Smithson to be your welded wife? Answer yes or no."
 Yes" assents the groom.
 Mary Ann Eliza Smithson, you heard what John said Now, are you
 willing to take him for your lawful husband? Address the court and speak loud enough for these witnesses to hear. Answer yes or no"
 "Yes," answers the bride.
