THEY GROW
Good Humor and Cheerfulness From
Right Food and Drink.

Anything that interferes with good
health is apt to keep cheerfulness and
good humor in the background. A
Washington lady found that letting
coffee alone made things bright for
her She writes:

indian Summer.

Washington.-Indi summer in
North America Is a period of mild,
balmy weather-usually occurring in
Northumberland by clear sky
and hazy or smoky atmosphere, s.
pecially near the Lorizon. The name
Is said to be derived from the custom,
among the Indians, of using this de-
Hghtful time to harvest their corn.
According to one of their traditions
they always had second summer OF
nine days just before the winter set
in. Indian summer corresponds to
similar season prevailing during the
late autumn in England and the Medi-
terranean countries, called "St Mar.
tins Summer" from ST. Martins FEES.

Mans Land" the citizens are full Of
enthusiasm over the big strike They
believe the formations in Oklahoma

around Richfeld and each of these
towns is preparing to put down well

1t is felt that a successful well will
solve for all time to come the vexa-
tious question of sufficient moisture
in this section. Irrigation congresses
have repeatedly been held in north
western Oklahoma. but SO far without
practical result.
"Old timers" however, assert that
irrigation is by no means an absolute
necessity. Those who have been here
for many years say all this portion of
Oklahoma needs is more farmers who
have faith in the country and VINO
will use intelligence in their methods.
Irrigation, they say. is merely a sort
of insurance against insufficient rain
fall, just as it would be in Kansas or
Missouri.

Significance in Names.


In an Illinois town workingman
having been informed that a sixth
baby had arrived at his home, ex-
claimed: Sufficient" and his neigh
bors, referring to his having given
that name-Sufficient- the new
arrival, credited him with originality.
The incident resembles case nearer
home, adds the New York Tribune
A New York family was blessed with
nine daughters, when the stork
brought tenth one. 1t was in the
days when the slang term for an oft
told story was Chestnut and as
the baby certainly came under that
head, she received the name, but for
suphony's sake the French for the
word was employed, and she was
called Marion.

and its conductor with glory in the per-

II the Mahler songs had not spread an at

would not have served their purpose. They
are weighted with grief of such poignant
sincerity that one must conclude that they
nave an autobiographic significance. We
nave not heard any music by Mr.. Mahler
