Oklahoma City Surprised Narrow
Minded New Yorker.

Oklahoma amazes an easterner. The
wide, asphalted streets, the plate glass
fronts of department stores, the clean
sidewalks, the well-dressed, unhurried
shoppers, the finish, the metropolitan
air you find in Oklahoma City, for ex-
ample, seem marvels to find in a ter
ritory only IL years old. But do not
say SO.
A New Yorker who went there on
business complained that fate was
thrusting him into a wilderness, and
his Oklahoma associates could not re.
assure him. But coming down to
breakfast the first morning, at his
hotel in Oklahoma City, he stared
around in wonder as he entered the
dining-room.
This" he exclaimed, this is Okla
homa!! Why, do you know" conf
dentially, Il even found a porcelain
bathtub in my room"

both times passed a sleepless night
and so l am doubly convinced coffee

my brother was in the habit of
drinking coffee three times a day. He
was troubled with sour stomach and |
would often notice him getting soda
from the can to relieve the distress in
his stomach; lately hardly a day
passed without a dose of soda for re-

Finally he tried a cup of Postum

and since then has been drinking
Postum in it's place and says he has
not once been troubled with sour stom-

Even after this lady's experience
with coffee her brother did not suspect
for a time that coffee was causing his

Architects and Closets.

An architect, says a writer, COM
plains that women have a mania for
closets and that when a woman is al
lowed any liberty in the matter she
changes his whole architectural plan
in order to make room for them. This,
he says, makes him a laughing stock
among his fellow architects. This is
very interesting, but why do architects
make plans if not to make every effort
themselves to secure conveniences? A
house may be INTELLECTUALLY perfect
and yet not fit to live in, and it certain,
ly is not if there is not closet room
enough.

The Manchester canal was built at
a cost of $75,000,O00 to reduce freight
rates for a distance of 35 miles, and,
while it did not prove a good inter
est bearing investment on such a
large expenditure, its indirect and
more permanent benefits are said to
have warranted it.
Germany has 5000 miles of canal,
carefully maintained, besides 1000
miles of other waterway. France,
with an area less than we would con-
slider a large state, has 5000 miles of
canal; and in the northern part,

frequent visitor here in the past. She
is a handsome and cultivated lady:

edly pretty wedding of Thursday even
ing directly interested Miss Elizabeth
Morris WillconXson and Roy Egbert
Anderson, both formerly of Lexing-
ton, Ky. The services were read in
their new home at 10 Madison Aven-
ue by DR.. S. R. Frazier and in the
presence of Mrs. WillcoXson, Mr.. and
Mrs. George G. Mckay, Miss Terhune,
Mr.. and Mrs. H. H. Porter and Mr..
and Mrs. w. ]. Zimmerman. Eight
o'clock was the hour. The bride was
very prettily attired in Persian lawn.
The bride is IAN accomplished mu-
sician and a young woman OF real
worth.
She and her mother came here very
recently, Mr. Anderson, too, having
been a comparatively new man in
Youngstown. He is identified with the
Wholesale Supply & Tailoring Com
pany. and is a shrewd successful busi-
ness man.
Shortly after the ceremony the as
sembled guests dined with the young
people and later centered attention on
music and other acceptable channels
of pleasure. Mr.. and Mrs. Anderson
are not adhering to the conventional
methods in the matter of a wedding
trip at this time but in the course
of few weeks will take a trip down
the great lakes and to the Norfolk
Exposition. Mrs. Willcoxson, wom-
an of rarely beautiful character, is
to live with the young people.

This year even greater attention will
be devoted to poultry and the show,
like last years, will be under the
management of the Blue Grass Poul-
try and Pet Stock Association. Hand
some quarters will be provided on
the grounds leased by the Fair Asso-
citation from the Gibson estate, so
that the display will be more accessi-
BILE to visitors. A liberal appropria-
ton has been made, an excellent clas-
sification provided and one of the
most competent judges in the country
will be brought to Lexington to pass

an employe of Roy Knabenshue, who
has been engaged for week of August
18th to 18th. A ship exactly like that
used by Beachy will be used at Lex

have the advantage of having Mr..

to be the most skilled American in
designing and flying airships He will
make two or three ascents each day

SOUNDNESS OF JUDGMENT.

The Courier-Journal of last Sunday
had the following editorial on the
purchase of a new home for the Ken
lucky State Fair.
In the selection of Douglas Park
as the permanent State Fair grounds
the State Board of Agriculture has
acted with a soundness of judgmenc
that will be appreciated by those
most familiar with the difficulties and
conditions that confronted it. A dozen
sites were considered by the Board,
but most of them were thought to be
inconveniently located, while Douglas
Park already has ample street car
facilities for handling as many people
as might desire to attend the fair. 1t
is estimated that the selection or
unimproved property would have made
it necessary for the State Fair Com
mission to expend many thousands Of
dollars for temporary buildings for
this year and next year. With good
trotting track, handsome grand
stand plenty of stable room and ade-
quate street car and railroad switch
ing facilities at Douglas Park, and
with the splendid agricultural and
live stock resources of Kentucky. the
State Fair Commission is ready at the
very beginning to compete with the
most successful fairs in the States of
the Central West"
