How to Pet q Horse.

An old "hoss" man says: HtVery few people know how to pet horse. Every nice looking horse comes in for good deal of pettin' Hitch a fine horse to the curb, and you'll find that half the men, women and children who go by will stop for a minute, say "nice horsey,o and give him an affectionate pat or two. The trouble is they don't pat him in the right place. If you want to make horse think he is going straight to heaven rub his eyelids. Next to that form of endearment a horse likes to be rubbed up between the ears. In betting horses most peo- pie slight those nerve centers. They stroke the horses nose. While well behaved horse will accept the nasal caress complacently, he would much prefer the nice soothing touch applied to the eyelids. Once in while a person comes along who really knows how to pet a horse. Nine times out of ten that man was brought up in the country among horses, and learned when a boy their peculiar ways" :"

 There were 59 names enrolled by Mrs. Johnson as members of the Teachers Reading Circle, following her address upon the subject of the benefits of this Institution on Thursday morning of last week.
 The Institute was favored on Monday forenoon by visit by Miss Reikhart in the interest of the School Improve iilSHC ASooSldllOll. Ile ledCllcIS etli took pledge to form an improvement league in each district.

STRUCK BY BASE
 BALL CRAZE

Green Forest is well nigh base ball mad, judging from the enthusiasm dis played at the mass meeting at which a base ball association was organized last Monday night Some of the leading citizens and a number of young ladies participated in the deliberations of the meeting, and it was decided by unanimous expression that Green Forest must have and already has an ideal ball team, the one and only thing lacking being for the town to get behind the boys with sufficient funds and enthusi- asm to push them to victory.
 It was dicided that it would be a handsome thing in advertising way for Green Forest to support crack ball team, which will feel the weight of the reputation of our town at every strike.
 Itwas also agreed that notwithstand- ing the numerous hard knocks that have been given ball playing that it is morally clean sort of amusement and in veiw of other ways and manners that boys are prone to spend their time, the citizenship of Green Forest can well afford to encourage the enter prise.
 In almost less than no time funds to the amount of $47.50 were subscribed to pay for suits and other preliminaries were perfected for the raising of more money; and the organization was com pleted by selection of the following officers:
 R. L. Jernigan, manager; H. P. Burney, c. H. Colvin and H. D. Meek, board of trustees.
 Nine out of the following ten will constitute the Green Forest lineup for the present at least:
 Mckee Burney, Bill Coxsey, Omer Hilton, Ben Jones, Will Tate, Omer Cummins. Norval Walker, Paul Colvin, Newb Edgmon and Bruce Phillips.
 Order has already gone in for tailored Green (Forest) uniforms, and they will likely be donned the first time when the team goes over to Harrison July 4 to try to wrench some of the laurels from the Harrison boys, who are just "spiling" for defeat.
 Our boys will enjoy practice" game again with Berryville next Sat urday afternoon and it is believed that the enthusiasm that has been injected in ball business will enable them to lay our neighbors in the shade this time. At any rate they will play ball.

Stigler, Oklahoma, June 13, 191

Stigler, Oklahoma, June 13, 1910. Editor Green Forest Tribune:
 There promises to be one of the hottest political compaigners conducted in Oklahoma this year of any state in the Union. The Democrats, Repub- licons and Socialist will have full tickets in the field. The Socialists boiled a very large vote in 1908, and they have carried on a campaign of education ever since that time, having held several en- campments of from three to five days duration with some of the biggest national speakers to help them. On Debs day at Hugo it is estimated that ten thousand people heard him speak, and it is claimed that Choctaw county will go strongly Socialist this fall as a consequence. Every county in the in the state where the Socialists have a ghost of chance to win will hold encampments this summer.
 But while the Socialists have been busy the old parties were not sleeping, but have also been exceedingly busy to try to prevent in-roads on their own parties, and they are still busy, so there is ''hot time" in store for the old town this summer
 If you Arkansas people have visi- tation of hot winds this summer don t get alarmed ssand think the world is coming ito and end, for it isn't. I thought l would warn you people in time what you might expect, for your own methods are so tame that you can only stir up the gentlist kind of a breeze every two years-a sort of love- feast and hand shake all around com pared to Oklahomas methods and any little disturbance would be liable to cause you uneasiness.
 Yours truly,

The Deadly Ely.

A number of counts of disease germs upon large number of flies examined, showed range from $50 to 6,600, 900 germs, representing typhoid, consump tion, dysentery, not to speak of the presence of filth upon their bodies, collected from their visits to every sort of haunt Not only do flies transmit disease through their capacity to carry disease germs upon their feet, wings and bodies, but often in feeding they take germs into their bodies, many of which, in passing through the digestive tract, not only remain alive, but in- crease in number so that fly "specks" have been found to contain large num- Der of producing germs.
 It is disgusting to read about these things, is it not? But it is not more disgusting than to see these same flies after their repast of filth, drown in the milk pitcher, drop their spects on a frosted cake, or clean their feet on the

Of the defects that are now causing the people of Carroll county worry and expense over their land titles is directly due to the work of incompetent Notaries and Justices of the Peace.
 Not one man in twenty who sets himself up as a convey ancer knows anything about how to comply with the tech nical requirements of the law in the preparation and execu- tion of instruments effecting land titles.
 You get the benefit of twenty years of careful study and experience when you employ J. L. Russell to attend to this class of business.

be counted upon to remain in company

my impressions on this subject are
wholly erroneous. | hope they are.
But it seemed to me that there was
i'm the recent past an effort being made
to take more and more of the general
supplies of the battle ships and de-
pend more and more upon the store
ships for the replenishment thereof by
constant small acquisitions. If | am
correct in this impression, it is my
Judgment that, though such a proceed

economy, such an advantage is prac
tiCally negligible in view of the result

appear to entail.

Amid such SURROUNDINGS it would
have been impossible to achieve any

With reference to the money Situa-
tion. | have been figuring considerably
land closelyD OF late: and | am CON
vinced that il will be best to engage
from the Chartered Bank Of India or
the lIongKonk Shanghai Bank (both
of which promised to let me have bids
by about now) G75,OO British gold for
delivery in exchange for my bill OF
exchange in Colombo and to arrange
through the consul general at Carlo
for another ElO00O0 tor SO much
thereof as may be nceded) for delv-
cry to the individual ships in exchange
for their bills as they arrive.
My idea is that the entire transaction
be handled from the flag Office in both
cases and all arrangements be per-
fected in advance; only, with refer
ence to the Port Said money, separate
bills will be far the hanG;est, and in
my opinion, the only officially author
lied way to secure and distribute the
money, i'm view OF the fact that the
ships will be coming through Port
Said one by one
The Port Said rate quoted in the
consul generals Cablegram is 0.O93 per
cent, or $i5j.9S on ClO0,O00 l$4SG $500
practically par The Colombo rate
must be less than O.I1 per cent, or
81. .131.il on G15,OO0 36i,9S7.J0D, be-
cause the department. in its cablegram
to Albany, quoted that figure for actual
shipment by Sclisman; and, of course.
If the Chartered Bank or the llongkong
Bank wants to do business, it must
come under that figure.
| think it Will. In any event. how
ever am not prepared to recommend
the taking OF United States gold from
here. because il would most probably
entail upon the officers and men loss
on exchange ashore considerably great
er than that sustained by the govern
ment in obtaining British money.
