Mrs. George II. Tucker, Jr., sss

is a grateful mother. "When six
months cid, she says, " my little girl
weighed a pound and a half less than
at birth. When one month old a scab
formed on her face, spreading until it
completely covered her from head to
foot, followed by boils, having forty
on her head at one time, and more on
her body. Then her skin started to
dry up, and it became so bad she
could not shut her eyes to sleep. One
months treatment with Cuticura Soap
and Ointment made a complete cure,
and now my child is as large, strong,
and healthy as any child of her age.
The DOCTORS and drug bills were over
one hundred dollars, and my baby

the story runs, President Roosevelt
at one time bantered Frantz TO

falls.
Trouble Ahead for Frantz.
Oklahomans who care nothing for
the chickering's in the Republican party
are curious to know what Frantz win
do. 1T seems inevitable that he must
become factionist or follow the iu-
dependent course that brought heart
burnings to Governor Ferguson when
he expected that he would be sustain
ed by President Roosevelt II Frantz
should yield to factional Influences, it
men would enjoy his appreciation, This
seems most probable that the MCGUIRE
would leave the anti-McGuire Repub-
licans with no other option than to
make a death struggle fight for exist
ence. Procrastination would make
them weaker and weaker, and result
finally in their humiliation as a factor
in the Republican party in Oklahoma.
Again. II Frantz should recognize the
anti-McGuire faction, which seems i'm.
possible. the Mcclure men would be
compelled to fight until victorious OF
utterly defeated. To ignore both fac
tions, as did Governor Ferguson, would
arouse their enmity and leave the dis
tribution Of Oklahoma patronage in the
hands Of one man, Governor Frantz.
Naturally, every Republican is asking
himself. viii Frantz be factionist or
viii he he independent?
In the impending changes among
territorial office holders citizens of
Oklahoma are not losing sight of two
things, to the protection Of which they
are devoted, namely. the school lands
and the non-p partisan management OF

The lessees hope TO acquire these

Fatalities In Fire at Elkhorn.

ELKHORN-Fred Paash, a Ger
man farmer residing near here, is
dead and his wife seriously burned as
the result of an explosion of coal OIL
Mr.. Paash started to light fire in
the stove. After igniting the fuel he
poured oil out of five-gallon can on
the fire. Flames were Immediately
communicated to the can, which ex-
ploded, covering the unfortunate man
with burning oil. His wife came to
his assistance, but could do nothing
to save him and he fell to the floor in
an unconscious condition, burned from
head to foot. His wife, suffering from
burns and the flesh falling from her
body, which was then practically
nude, walked to the home of neigh.

OF Wide Interest.

Breed, Wis, June 26.-Special-
Chas. Y. Peterson, Justice of the Peace
for Oconto Co., has delivered a judg-
ment that is of interest to the whole
United States. Put briefly, that judg-
ment is, "Dodd's Kidney Pills are the
best Kidney medicine on the market
to-day"
And Mr.. Peterson gives his reason
for this judgment. He says: Last
winter I had an aching pain in my
back which troubled me very much.
In the morning could hardly straight

was but an advertisement led me to
try Dodd's Kidney Pills. After taking

Breathing and Digestion.

The stomach lies just below the
diaphragm, and a portion of the me-
chanical work of the stomach, the
mingling Of the food and the digestive
fluids, is performed by the diaphragm,
which, as it moves up and down.,
kneads the stomach and its contents,
and so greatly aids digestion. In or.
binary breathing in a quiet person the
movements of the chest are so slight
as to be scarcely noticeable, and the
action of the diaphragm produces lit.
tie effect; but by moderate exercise
these movements are greatly in.
creased, more than doubled, and the
stomach is theoretically kneaded. In,
this way. moderate exercise after eat
ing is beneficial. The practice of
breathing movements is also very
helpful for persons who have slow
digestion.
Exercise out Of doors is especially.
helpful. Fresh air, and especially
cold air, sharpens the appetite, and
creates demand for food by burning
up the waste matters with which the
tissues are clogged, and preparing the
way for new material, which digestion
introduces into the blood.

THE NEBRASKA STATE FAIR
Secretary Bassett Issues Circular Ct
Importance.

Secretary 5assett Issues Circular Ct
Importance.
Office Of State Board of Agriculture,
Lincoln, Neb.-The following circular
has been issued by Secretary Bassett:
Some misunderstanding has arisen
In regard to the provision in the Ne
braska state fair premium list relat-
ing to what are termed "senior
calves" The provision reads six
months and under one year (not per-
mitted to have nurse mother) The
board of managers rules that during
the state fair such calves are not
permitted to nurse but one COW; sucn
COW may be the mother of such calf
or not; in either event during the
week of the state fair such calf 20
nurse but one COW.
This provision in regard to mot to
have nurse mother" was inserted at
the suggestions of the secretary of the
Illinois state board of agriculture and
applies to senior calves only, that Is.
six months and under one year"
"The classifications in regard to
senior and junior calves in the beef
breeds was made at the request Of
breeders of beef cattle and was not in
tended to apply to the dairy breeds.
''In both exhibitors herd and
breeders herd in class B-Cattle, the
premium list provides for animals
under one year and makes no men,
ton of nurse mother; therefore in
exhibitors herd and breeders young
herd an exhibitor can show animals
under one year regardless of whether
they have nurse mother or not.
In dairy breeds, class B-Lots and
9, premium numbers IT'S, 179, 191 and
1876 should read under one year. n
stead of under six months
"The secretary's office has been
moved from Brownville to Lincoln,
and S. G. Bassett appointed to fill
vacancy.
"For premium lists or other infor-
nation in regard to state fair matters

STRAWBERRY A PERFECT FOOD

Rest means relaxation-not only OK
the body, but of the mind also. In
America, particularly, we are apt to
forget this. That Is why nervous
prostration" is such popular phrase
just now. The Germans, as a nation,
go more slowly than we do In all
things; the English and even the
French take life more easily. Perhaps
our atmosphere conduces to energy
and hurry. At any rate the popularity
of such words as strenuous, hustle"
and the like. in this country, show our
attitude as nation.
OF course we cannot Immediately
change all this. We do not wish to.
Enthusiasm and energy. hard work
and hard thinking, have brought US
to our present state Of prosperity, and
we cannot afford to fall back now. Nor
do we need to. Hard work, whether
OF hand or brain, does not kill, but
continual work and worry do. II we

from nervous degeneration, we must

ments. Some people must have their
hands constantly occupied in some
way, and it is difficult, Of course, to
remember that haste is often slower
than elaboration. We say that have
no time to go slowly.
A great fault in busy people is their
failure to relax thoroughly at night.
Many go to bed and sleep, after q
fashion, but with tense nerves. The
mind should be as Invested of worries
and cares at bedtime as the body is Of
| clothes. The muscles must be relax
ed. If exercises are taken at night,
they should end in few especially
| helpful of these relaxing exercises
may be mentioned:
1. Stand easily erect, chest raised
| and abdomen in, and let the head fall
| gently forward, then arms and trunk
above the waist. All this must be
done without effort, the breath being
gently expelled at the same time. Aft
| er little pause, raise the body slowly.
2. Stand erect, raise the arms
| above the head and let them fall
| first the fingers, then the wrists, then
| the arms.
3. Let the arms hang at the sides,
then slowly and gently swing them
from side to side, gradually letting the
head and then the body swing with
| them.
Remember that your object is to re-
lax the muscles and do all these exer.
cises easily and with as little exertion
as possible.
