Mrs. ParkhurSt to Preach
The Gospel Of Free
dom

New York. Oct. PA quiet little
group OF New York women. bearing
banners labeled votes for women,
stood on the White Star pier last night
and welcomed to America Mrs. EN-
incline Gould Pankhurst Of Manches-
ter, England, the leader OF the mill
tant suffragettes Of Great Britain. The
reception to the woman who has
sedyed two terms OF Imprisonment for
her activity in the cause Of women's
suffrage was devoid Of clamor and
smacked nothing OF the sensational
methods for which Mrs. Pankhurst has
been sponsor. Immediately after she
reached the pier Mrs. Pankhurst was
taken away by her admirers and sup
porters to the suffrage headquarters at
SOP South Fifth avenue. Mrs. Pank-
hurst is slight of stature and has a
wealth OF brown hair which is just
turning gray. She vas dressed becom-
ingly in dress Of dark material.

am not prepared to say"
Mrs. Pankhurst defended militant
tactics. ~All great movements have
been worked out by violence" she
said. The American people secured
their liberty by violence, SO why not

Autos VS.. Clothes

A cheap automobile is like unto a
hand-me-down suit of clothes-doesn't
cost much, likewise doesn't wear long
and isn't trim tailored nor has it the
quality necessary. Autos that are
cheap cannot be built to deliver the
goods. The ohio" is strictly in the
'made-to-order" class. Looks good, Is
good, absolutely noiseless, neat, trim
and seryiceable; cost more, but like
the tailored suit, lasts the longest and
decidedly the cheapest in the long run:
40-horsepower. five passenger, noise
less and its simplicity is a marvel in
auto building. Any lazy could run it

Oklahoma city, Oct. 22.-When the
Farmers State Bank, representing a
capitalization Of 100000 and deposits
OF a million and a quarters dollars,
opened its doors for business this
morning, corner Grand avenue and
Robinson streets, ii began to oper
ate under national bank charter.
Under receipt OF telegram from w
J. Fowler, deputy comptroller of the
currency late yesterday afternoon au-
thorizing the conversion from state to
a national institution the change was
quietly made and the bank will hence
forward be known as the Farmers
National Bank
In a certain sense we regret the
change we are making" said J. F,
Warren, president OF the bank. last
night. since the word State is our
trade mark and it was under state
charter that our bank has grown to
its present sound basis. Still, the
change is the elimination of plans
made two years ago. and is by no
means new or sudden policy with
the directors and officers OF the bank
The G, ange is made after two years
of deliberate planning and waiting un
til our capitalization was large enough
to apply for a national charter"

WHY SALvES FAIL
TO CURE ECZEMA
They Clog the Pores-Only Liquid
Can Reach the Inner Skin.


Since the oid-fashioned theory OF
curing eczema through the blood
has been given up by scientists,
many different salves have been
tried for skin diseases. But it has
been found that these salves only
clog the pores and can not penetrate
10 the inner skin below the epider-
mis- where the eczema germs are
lodged.
Thistle quality Of penetrating
probably explains the tremendous
success OF the only standard liquid
eczema cure, oil OF wintergreen as
compounded in ID. d. d. Prescrip-
ton. After ten years of cure after
cure, the worlds leading skin spe-
cialists have accepted this as the
true eczema cure.
We ourselves do not hesitate to
recommend ID. d. d. Prescription at
sl.00 a bottle, but for the benefit of
those who have never tried the pre-
scription. we have arranged with the
D. ID. ID. Laboratories of Chicago
for a special large trial bottle at 25
cents on a special offer now. This
FIRST bottle ought TO convince every
sufferer. and, at any rate, Il viii
surely take away the itch at once.

POSTAL FIGURES

PRECEDING YEAR
Business Getting Back to Basis
of 1906, Before the
Panic.
Climbing Toward the $4,000
Mark Quite Rapidly.
MAY SECURE ANOTHER CLERK

Paducah's postofice receipts show
Ia gain of s4,665.2s over the twelve
months OF last year. a decrease OF
only 81. 452.46 on the year 1906, be-
fore the panic. The figures are salts
factory to the postoffice officials, who
place the postofice department on
the growing HIST. Although March
does not end the fiscal year OF the
government the figures were made as
a basis for the postmaster's salary, as
Is done every year. Paducah's post
master will not receive another in
crease in salary until the receipts
amount to $4,000, which probably
will be In few years, ii business
finds its regular channel. However.
a new clerk Is expected to be al
lowed the postoffice on the gain, de-
spite the fact that the allowance
made by congress for new postoffice
clerks was unusually small.
The receipts for the year amount
ed to 6S.6OS.63. while the receipts
for the year ending March 81, 1908.
we're 500 .943.35. A comparison with
previous years shows that the post
Office is recovering rapidly from the
effects, as in 1906 the receipts
showed a gain OF only $6,117.74.
Last year the gain An receipts

for the year just closed is greater by
s1.099.16.
During the quarter just closed a
slight decrease was made In the cor
responding quarter of last year, but
the gains OF the other three quarters
were sufficient to tide over the loss
and show a handsome gain. Post
master Frank Fisher was especially
happy over the showing OF the re-
ceipts and predicted that next year

tariff by the full committee on finance
by the Republican members of that
committee only.
Aldrich insisted that the procedure
adopted In this case was similar to

with tariff measures, and he added
that the same method was adopted In
handling the Wilson tariff bill for
which he said a substitute was
framed by a subcommittee composed
of Democrats.
The Democrats made a strenuous
contention for representation at the
hearings by the committee and
argued that the Republican members
