Here is the way an Oklahoma
editor asked his readers to help
him in getting the news; My
friend, help the editor III his wild
eyed search for news. When
your friends come to you, if you
are not ashamed of it, tell him;
when your wife gives tea party,
if you have recovered from the
effects of the gossip, drop in with
the news; when a baby arrives
fill your pockets with cigars and
call; if you go to party, steal
some of the good things and leave
EN- with the item in our sanctum
If your wife ticks you, come in
and let US see your scars and ten
der sympathy through the paper
If your mOther-in-law has died,
don't be bashful about'i it, give IN
all the commonplace news. In
short whatever makes you feel
proud, sad lonesome or glad sub
NIT to our "a carat wisdom and
see our matted lock part and
stand upon end with gratitude,
which will pour from every pore
like moisture from dew-be-
Sprinkled earth.''

Cigars are much like men. Not

Cigars are much like men Not
that the latter always end in
smoke and ashes but that the
burning of the weed so often
resembles the life of the individ-
ual. A few days ago party of US,
six in all, sat smoking a favorite
brand of cigars. These were all
taken from the same box but no
two smoked alike. One burned
even, it's ash was of healthy
color and in it's consumption the
owner had no trouble in keeping
it alight. Another smoked but
it cut it off repeatedly but could
not eradicate it's tendency and
finAy when he did cast it away,
it burned and looked more like a
whisk broom than a carefully
prepared smoke. So it is with
human life. You can take the
men out of one family, like the
cigars out of box, and you can
not presume that there will be
any similarity in their lives One
may go through life burning even
and with a clear ash, so that like
the smoke that has pleased you;
you part with him with regret,
the other will forever burn one
sided, ugly in disposition, like
the bad cigar in it's appearance,
Indifferent to cultivation and i'm
possible to Improvement Which
are you, the bad cigar or the
smoke of delight? We cannot tell
by gazing at you in the box for
the wrapper may be concealer
of rubbish and the gaudy band a
delusion. We hate to take our
chances on smoking you, but at
the same time we may be losing
a treasure. To select a good
smoke is a lottery; to select
friends is equally so and in the
latter case we have often paid for
the choice article only to find on
closer acquaintanceship that we
had only secured factory sweep
ings, bitter in taste and utterly
devoid of any quality of merit. =

An item which will be appreci-

An item which will be appreci-
ated by the newspaper men,
which we clip from the Atchison
Globe: Col. Bill Appleton is very
sensitive. Not long ago he was
out in the country and drank so
much butter milk and ate so
many berries they made him
sick. The next day as soon as he
got down town he hunted up a.
newspaper reporter and told of
his experience, and didn't mind
it a bit when the item appeared
in the paper. A few nights later
Col. Bill was out with some Of
his friends, got drunk and was,
sick to his stomach, just as he
was when he got sick on butter
milk and berries. The same re-
porter, who had chronicled Col.
Bills other sickness, happened
to be the Cub, so he wrote this
item which slipped into the pa
per: Col. VIM. Appleton, one of
our worthy citizens, was out
with a few friends last night,
drank too much whiskey and was
made awfully SICK After the
item appeared Col. Bill went
around to the newspaper Office
and wanted to clean out the en-
tire force He not only stopped
his paper, which the carrier had
a hard time collecting for, but
Immediately went out on the
streets and began agitating the
starting of another paper where
in all respectable citizens would
be given a square deal Mean
while the Cub reporter is still
wondering why Col. Bill got so
mad about his reporting the
whiskey drunk and enjoyed read
ing about his buttermilk aud
berry drunk.

An Illinois preacher sees the
ruination of the world in the kiss
ing habit. According to the Sue
ker State Divine, more evil turks
in the poor little innocent kiss
than in all other corrupting agen-
cies combined. Here is what he
says: There is something won
derfully magnetic and thrilling
in a kiss When two sets of lips
come together it is like two clouds
charged with electricity, the one
positive the other negative. And
the result is an emotional explo-
sion and cloudburst of excessive
passion and estacy. Nothing was
more of heavens fire or the fire
of hell than a kiss. The best
things perverted are the worst
instrumentalities for deadly evil
And I know nothing as subtle
and as damning as burning kiss.
Great God, deliver US from the
kissing devil"

Kansas City Stock Yards, July
%. 1907.
The large supply of p, 900 cattle
and calves arrived yesterday
followed by run of Is, 900 today
Receipts of guarantees are mod
crate this week, only 5000 in two
days, and as the number of fed
natives is getting smaller each
week, the increase is in grass
cattle from native territory. Col
orado has not started anything
yet, and will not for several
weeks. Fed cattle are steady this
week, and COWS and heifers are
steady to 10 lower today, besides
a loss of Is to 25 cents late last
week. Calves are so cents lower
than week ago, about steady
this week. and stockers and feed
ers are in good demand and hold
ing up-wen Grass killing steers
are 10 to 20 lower this week,
and have declined slightly since
the middle of last week. Dry lot
steers sold at $40 yesterday,
top today 50 90, and bulk of fed
cattle, including these fed corn
on grass sell at 1918 to $6.75.
Choice heifers have not lost any
ground, selling up to $500 this
week. Heavy Kansas graxed
westerns bring $500 to S.. 35,
lighter steers $4.25 to S.. 90, cows
$2.75 to 81 so, calves 81 90 to$6. 25,
bulls $2.75 to $3.50. There is a
strong demand for weighty feed
ers of good choice quality IS 90
to $3.50, being paid in some in
stances lately, while light feeders
and stock steers bring 1925 to
$500. The heavy run of quaran-
tines from the big pastures in the
Indian Territory will be over in
about ten days.
The hog market took a surpriS-
ing turn upward late last week.
and is 5 to 10 higher today, fol
lowing a similar advance yester-
day. Eastern shippers have been
in the market lately, greatly
stimulating prices on lights
weights, and the spread between
lights and heavies is widest of
the year this week. Light hogs
sold at $6.O5 to 1918 today,
weights between 200 to $50 at
$5.95 to Sc. 10 heavy hogs $685. to
1915. Buyers are independent
regarding packing weights, as
they have been putting away
meat for some time, and all the
competition is on butcher
weights for immediate consump-
tion.-
Mutton market is unchanged
from last week, receipts moder-
ate, 5000 here today. Only few
struggling shipments of range
stuff are now coming, receipts
mainly natives, lambs selling at
81. 90 to go, wethers and year
lings. S.. so to S.. 90, ewes S.. % to
$3.50. Small shipments of Utahs
arrived this week, but main
movement from there will not
start for month yet.
