Nuts Furnish Cheap Living.

Norfolk. Virginia, has a citizen

He is s. s. Wright. Here is his own
testimony:
During the last month | have lived
on s1.55 and Jared sumptuously; had
all desired TO eat, gained two pounds
in weight and never felt better in my
life The only food | have eaten dur
ing the month has been eleven pounds
OF nuts (brazils and pecans) IL cents
worth of peanuts (roasted) and one
pound of raisins. Some of this
shared with friends. This has been an
experiment with me, as | have read
much about nuts as diet and re-
solved to try them. | am more amazed

A Window Eox Mission.
COLORADO


Five hundred window boxes, of
proper size to fit the average tene-
ment house window, are being manu-
featured in New York this year.
Equipped with the required screws
and wires and filled with plants
sturdy enough to grow even without
much encouragement. these boxes are
to be distributed among the denizens
of the city's crowded tenements.
This charming enterprise is conduct
ed by the Flower Guild. Guild visit
ors, calling wherever boxes have been
given, explain how flowers should be
tended Facts related by some of last
years visitors speak more convincing
ly than mere statistics can of the bar
lrenness of many lives. One woman
who received a box was afraid to wa

ers and spoil the box. other recip-
tents wore reluctant to pick OFF faded,
yellow leaves How do I know
asked one, that these. being OF such
Ia color. are not really fowers?" One

fearing that II the flowers should die

cepting one. she was one day filed
with terror to find that neighbors, liv-

promptly stopped their practice when
they were told that It might cause the
lwoman's death. The boxes distrib-
uted last year were fully appreciated.
In several cases It was the man OF
the family who cared for the flowers.
One man was Inspired to add soap
box in second window, and plant
peas The flowers were used by iany
to deck graves CT loved ones. One
poor woman carried her heavy box
to her child's grave. Prizes are
awarded for the boxes that show the
best care. Last year the three prizes
awarded went to little colored girl.

STATE OF OKLAHOMA.
outnumbers Twenty-three Of tho Older
States in Population.

If ever two territories deserved ad-
mission to the Union as two states, Ok
lahoma and the Indian Territory were
the ones. In population, area, wealth
of natural resources and development
either of them far distances almos,
any OF the present states at the time
of their admission. The new state has
an area of 70,230 square miles and a
population of 100000, thus being
about one-third smaller than Colorado
and more than twice as populous. Tho
term Indian Territory has grown to be
a misnomer, for the total Indian popu-
lation of the entire state Is just lit
tie under 100000, or about seven per
cent of the whole.
According to the federal census of
1900 there are twenty-three states in
the Union with a smaller population
than the new state of Oklahoma. The
one which most closely approximates
it Is South Carolina, while others in

Plat of Roulder county.
Congressman from the First District
DR.. F. F. Evans Of Fort Morgan.
For Congressman from the Second
District-H p. King of Pueblo.
The platform contains a preamble
setting forth the belief OF the party
that legalized liquor traffic is the most
fruitful source Of poverty. crime and
misery in existence. and that, since the
decision OF the Supreme Court OF the
United States denies citizens the in
herent right to sell intoxicating
LIQUORS. it is logical truth that such
privilege cannot be legally granted.
II is declared that any law so enacted
Is in direct disobedience of the Su-
preme Court and that no Legislature
can legally bargain away the public
or morals by permitting It's sale.
Summarized, the platform Of the
party Is as follows:
With reference to prohibition, the
frmest plank in the platform, the con
vention declares it's opposition to the
sale OF liGuor. for any price or under
any conditions. declaring for prohibit
tion not only OF its sale OF liquor, but
of its manufacture. for the sake or
homes and country, prohihitive legis-
lation is demanded.
The platform asserts the belief that
the present tendency Of the nation to-
ward graft is due TO the sale of liquors.
and has been fosiered by the high IL
cense which the liquor trafic has been
forced TO pay in order TO live, and de-
clares that the graft spirit cannot ne
overcome until saloons and the liquor
traffic are done away with. II arraigns
the dominant parties for silently Ignor-
ing the moral financial and civil dom
nation of the liquor traffic and de-
nounces any party falling to insert a
plank in its platform putting itself OF
record as against such traffic.
The platform favors legislation FOR

rado and municipal ownership OF pub.
