How to Work the Ice
Chest in your Refrigerator

Ice chests in refrigerators are usually larger than
the given capacity This is because the manufacturers,
in estimating the capacity of the chest, allow room
fer the proper placing of the ice-for instance, room
for the tongs to go down easily and thus avoid drops
which would be destructive to the chest
Attached to all our wagons are scales which are
tested from time to time by the city inspector OF
weights and measures. Customers are thereby
provided with the means of knowing exactly the
amount of ice they are taking.
If you are careful to keep ice in the chest ALL
THE TIME, you will escape the waste oeoasioned
by the refrigerator becoming warm and having to be
iced back to normal temperature. For this and other
reasons you will find it more economical to have
your deliveries made DAILY in pieces which are con-
siderablv smaller than the actual chest capacity, IN
stead Of having the chest filled every other day
or at longer periods.

Climbing up the steps to the right oil
The Great Andes platform in North Biz
rnineham Saturday night were four or
five persons carrying in their arms man
who had not walked for a number of
years Coming down the long running
board was a man 81 years of age on
crutches. whose affliction lay in the loss
OF the use of his hips, by this entrance
to the platform he had been assisted up
a pair of steps, while on the shorter run
ning-boards and to every side were per-
sons being helped to the platform by
politicians, friends and anxious Kindred.
The Great Andes announced that as the
free demonstrations were simply to show
to the public what one application OF
these medicines would do, and what
might be expected from their continued
use. the demonstrations would be confined
to one each nightly of the following dis

The Bank of England is altogether like

in New York indications are that both

in New York has not been above 3 per

that after provision has been made for

with state control over the whole

states are getting a really fine road
system"
Mr.. Page urged that in all legis-
lation for good roads separate funds
be provided for construction and
maintenance. He advocated the patrol
system of keeping the roads in re
pair, under which, as in France, one
man is given short stretch of the
road to keep under his constant su-
pervision. This patrol system Is now
in operation in New York, where the
state has recently voted 30 million
dollars in bonds for road work. The
New York system provides for trunk
lines to be built and maintained
entirely at the cost of the state, for
county roads to be built jointly by
the state, county and towns and for
town or township roads to which
the state contributes only for main
tenance.

appeal for votes. The Missourian
present had to ask twice If it was
really true that Cruce was a demo
crat. Il seemed that the republicans
had charged high taxes and extrava-
gance. Here is Cruces way OF meet
ing thai issue:
"If you people of Oklahoma don't
want to spend money for things that
make great state and make good
citizens out of your boys and girls
YOU had better elect some other
governor than Lee Cruce."
Right there the Missouran yearn-

mings of white shirt front and little
white tie, after the manner of the

for predicting a fifty thousand Demo

Oklahoma City. Okla. Oct, c.
while construction is the first
requisite TO road Improvement, main
tenance of the roads is of equal i'm
portance," Logan Waller Page, di-
rector of the United States office
of public roads, said in an address
to the National Good Roads Con-
vention in session here. TO have
both good construction and good
maintenance we must have a cen
tralized administrative system. The
one point of clearly demonstrated
superiority which the European road
system possesses over our own is
in its exceptionally effective admin
istration and maintenance.
"All the roads of the state shoul5
be under the control of the state,
Mr.. Page continued. 1T Is absolutely
essential to good roads that the road
administration should be taken out
of politics and this can be accom-
plished only through a plan of ap-
pointing local highway engineers by
state highway commission. For
three hundred years the system OF
local road construction had result
ed only in bad roads except in
spots under peculiar conditions. With

Roosevelt is severely arraigned in a
statement made public today by VIII
liam jenkins, formerly territorial
governor of Oklahoma, in reply to
recent newspaper articles reviving
the story of jenkins summary re-
by President Roosevelt for alleged
connection with the sanitarlum con
tract.
Jenkins declares that Roosevelt re-
moved him from the office and then
Investigated the charges afterHard
and charges that Roosevelt was

ton rather than a desire to serve
the nation.
In the course of his statement,
Ex-Governor jenkins says that the
report sent in by the territorial
governor appointed to succeed him
entirely eXonerated him from any
wrongdoing and the Investigation
made by the territorial legislature a
few months later also cleared him
of the charges. The republican party
of Oklahoma was never called to ac-
count for the jenkins action and the
democratic party never attempted to
make political capital out of it, ac-
cording to the statement.

RHEUMATISM
WEAK KIDNEYS & THIN BLOOD

Not only is the blood the great
nourishing source of our systems, but
equally as important is its work OF
removing the waste of oXodizcd It's
sues which have been consumed in
force and bodily heat. This waste IS
filtered out through the kidneys.
When. however, the Kidneys become
weak and unable t. perform their
regular duties, the waste is allowed
to remain in the circulation, soon
forming uric acid which destroys the
greater portion cfnourishing elements
of the blood and leave it weak and
acrid. This imperfect blood deposits
into the different muscles and joints
the uratic impurity with which it IS
contaminated. Then the pains and
aches of Rheumatism commence. The
gritty formation which uric acid
causes collects in the joints and pro
duces the aches and stiffness which
always accompanythe disease. Like
wise the muscles are coated and lose
their elasticity, while the continual
irritation to the nerves produces swell
ing and inflammation OF the flesh.
