HISIAST.HOPEr REALIZED.

From The..sentinel,.. Gebo,::. Mont
In the first opening of Oklahoma
to settlers in 1889, the editor of. this
paper was among the many. seekers
after fortune who made the big race
one fine day in April. During his
travelling about and afterwards his
camping upon his claim, he en-
countered much bad water, which,
together with the severe heat gave
him a very severe diarrhoea which
it seemed almost impossible to
check, and along in June the case
became so bad he expected to die.
One day one Of his neighbors brought
him one small bottle of Cham ber-
lain s Collie, Cholera and ..Diarrhoea
Remedy as last hope. A big
dose was given him while he was
rolling about on the ground in
great agony, and in few minutes
the dose was repeated. The good
effect of the medicine was soon,
noticed and within an hour the
patient was taking his first sound
sleep for fortnight. That on
little bottle worked a complete cure,
and he cannot help but feel CRATE
full. The season for bowel disorders
being at hand suggests this item.

1t appears that such is the case. The

of which was a contest of yoke Of
oxen against an equal weight Of men,
"A drag was loaded with granite blocks,
weighing in the aggregate 1853
pounds. The yoke of oxen ttat made
the trial weighed 1920 pounds, and
twenty men, allowing 160 pounds to
the man. were set against them. The
men took hold of the drag first, and
easily walked of with it, covering &

minutes. The oxen at their trial moved
only elghty-dve feet in the same length
of time, and the men were accordingly
declared ,winners.-Pearson's Weekly

THINGS WORTH KNOWING
Bits of scrapbook Wisdom on Vari-

1t is possible to secure a number of ex-
cellent metal polishes, but oxalic acid is
also one Of the best agents for cleaning
brass and irons, candlesticks and like
pieces of metal which are very much tar
nished. 1t should be applied with a flan-
incl cloth and polished briskly with chamois
skin. If brass is only slightly furnished
1T can be cleansed with a paste made OF
rottenstone and turpentine. Bronzes
should be busted with a soft cloth and
then rubbed with 4 cloth rnoistened with
sweet oil and subsequently polished with
the chamois. Copper cooking utensils
spigots and the zinc bath tub can be
cleaned with hot vinegar in which salt
has been dissolved.
A unique screen is made of leather, the
edges Of the skins irregular and fastened
to the frame. of the screen by lacings OF
leather. The design on each panel is diff
ferent and all are Indian in type. The
middle panel shows a sunset in the hill
country, with the figure Of an Indian III
the foreground. The two side panels have
each a scene presenting Indian home life
one of a camp fire with figure Of Mime
haha bending over it, and the other a cir.
The screen frame is carved in relief with
Indian figures and hieroglyphics.
A simple treatment for sore throat anc

rod which, by means of a hinge, is di

| The longest part corresponds to the length
of an ordinary bottle and the two othe
parts correspond respectively to the di
ameter of the bottle at the bottom ant
to the length of the neck. The three part
are covered with rubber and as they arr
hinged they can be moved in any direc

fill the bottle with water and thrust the
rod into it. AS soon as the device reaches
