TOM HOWARD GETS BUSY AND
LANDS IN JAIL.
Doesn't Like a Bondsman In Re-deliv-
cry Bond, Resulting In Own
Bond Being Refused.

The efforts of Tom Howard, the
negro, who a few days ago gave a
farmer a worthless note for s4S5 in
exchange for a team of horses, and
buggy, and then filed q replevin suit
against a local deliveryman who had
the horses and failed to turn them
over to him. to have the re-delivery
bond OF the farmer who Is known as
Three Fingered Happy Jack" dis
approved by the court, resulted in
Howard being placed in the county
jail.
Howard objected to the name Of
George Meade, who signed the re-de-
livery bond, appearing on the papers.
He claimed that Meade was not a
good surety.
Some time ago Howard was arrest
ed on a charge of stealing horses. At
the present time he is out on bond,
awaiting trial or that charge. George
Meade is one of his bondsmen.
When Sheriff Mccullough learned
yesterday that Howard objected to
Meade appearing on the redelivery
bond on the grounds he was not good
for the amount, he decided that If
Meade was not good on one bond, he
was not good on another. so he placed
Howard under arrest and locked him
up in the county Jail.

\ BRAIN WORKER.
Must Have the Kind of Food That
Nourishes Brain.

II am a literary man whose nervous
energy is great part of my stock In

tience with breakfast foods and the
extravagant claims made of them. But
/ cannot Withhold my acknowledgment
OF the debt that l owe to Grape-Nuts

Il discovered long ago that the
very bulkiness Of the ordinary diet
was not calculated to give one clear
head, the power Of sustained, accurate
thinking. I always felt heavy and
sluggish in mind as well as body ar
ter eating the ordinary meal, which
diverted the blood from the brain to
the digestive apparatus.
81 tried foods easy of digestion, but
found them usually deficient in nutrl-
ment. I experimental with many
breakfast foods and they. too. proved
unsatisfactory. till I reached Grape
Nuts. And then the problem was
solved.
"Grspe-Nuts agreed with me per-
fectly from the beginning, satisfying
my hunger and supplying the nutr,-
ment that so many other prepared
foods lack.
Il had not been using It very long
before I found that ! was turning out
an unusual quantity and quality OF
work. Continued use has demonstrat-
ed to my entire satisfaction that

LETTER HAS MANY SCARED.
Religious Creed Alleged TO Have Been
Written BY Christ-Tmid Making
Editors Lives Miserable.

The following clipped from an ex-
change has been sent the World with
request to publish.
Country papers throughout the
United States are printing what is al

In this letter was an injunction that
1t should be published to the world
by whoever found It together with the
statement that misfortune and bad
luck would follow the person having
possession of II in the event that 1t
was not given publicity.
There was likewise a promise that
whoever may have copy of this In
his or her possession will prosper and
be followed by good fortune. This
paper has received some hundreds of
requests to print this letter, so If it
will relieve the superstitious fear Of
any one, here it is:

Gabriel niney-nine years after the

over"
No one knew what the inscription
meant or seemd to have sufficient
curiosity to investigate, until the stone
was turned over by little child and
the letter which follows was discov-

A Reasonable Plea
For The Stomach
If Your Stomach Is Lacking in Digcs-
tive Power, Why Not Help the
Stomach DO Its WOrk-Espccially
When IL Costs Nothing TO Try?

Not with drugs, but with a rein
forcement Of digestive agents. such as
are naturally at work in the stomach?
Scientific analysis shows that diges-
ton requires pepsin, nitrogenous fer
ments, and the secretion of hydro
chloric acid. When your food fails
to digest, it is proof positive that some
of these agents are lacking in your
digestive apparatus.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contaip
nothing but these natural elements
necessary to digestion and when
placed at work In the weak stomach
and small intestines. supply what
these organs need. They stimulate
the gastric glands and gradually
bring the digestive organs back to
their normal condition.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets have
been subjected to critical chemical
tests at home and abroad and are
found to contain nothing but natural
digestives

REMEMBER POOR
FOLKS THURSDAY.
ON TOMORROW, DOZENS OF FAM
LIES IN TULSA WILL GET AN
UNUSUAL MEAL.
There IS PLENTY FOR ALL
Every Home In Actual Want VIII BE
We'll Taken Care of-Young
Ladies 10 Feast Hungry.

At no time of the year does the
charitable part Of the every day life
of Tulsans come to the surface with
such an effervescense as during the
holiday season at Thanksgiving and
Christmas. At such times OF the
year, the spirit of helping others Is
more in evidence than at any other
time. This year will be no exception
to this rule.
Tomorrow, dozens OF families IN
Tulsa, too poor TO buy the Thanksgiv-
ing dinner, which tradition, since the
day of the Puritan fathers landing
on the bleak shores Of Massachusetts,
has made each and every American
desirous of having, will be supplied
with bountiful repasts by various
charitable institutions Of Tulsa.
Womens clubs, lodges, churches,
religious organizations and the Sal
vation Army are well prepared to
take care Of all the needy in Tulsa
tomorrow.
Baskets filled with all the eatables,
such as turkeys, fruits, mince pies,
cranberries, and vegetables, will be
delivered to every family in want in
Tulsa tomorrow.
Secretary Buchner of the Y. NJ. C.
A. has played a prominent part in
directing charitable work. He tells
an interesting story, giving some
light on what any organization can
do.
"A short time ago" he said "a
group of youg society girls from the
ages of 16 to 21 came to me ana
asked what they could do In the way
of charitable work. l was rather
backward about giving them advice,
as ! feared they We're only acting on
the spur Of the moment, and didn't
intend to do any extended charitable
work, and spasmodic work does no
good for our cause. They finally
ness and / suggested that they give
a dinner on Thanksgiving day to the
poor children of the city.
These young ladies eagerly took
up the proposition, and tomorrow in
the basement Of one of our churches
they will spread a splendid Thanks
giving dinner in which 200 children
Of all ages of the city will partake."
This is only one instance of the
real charitable work that is being
done here at this time. Tulsa's un-
fortunates tomorrow will have some-
thing to be really Thankful for.

swell 1tl cell you mister, We

This was the explanation given by
11-year-old Paul Hull to Night PO-
lice Sergeant Fields, late Sunday
night when asked why he had left
his home near Owasso, with his a.
year-old brother and another lad of
Ike age. Saturday night. The three
youths live with their parents on a
farm a mile and half from Owasso
In Tulsa county. They came to Tulsa,
Saturday night and intended return
ing Sunday night, but after they had
visited all the picture shows
they fouhd they had missed their
tain. In the meantime, the local
police department had been notified
by telephone from Owasso TO look
out for the trio Of farmer lads. The
Hull brothers and their companion. a
boy named Griffith, were picked up
by an officer and taken to police
headquarters. 1t was then that one
of the lads explained that they had
only intended coming to Tulsa and
have a little fun, as a relief from the
monotous life of a farmer youth.
The boys were taken care of for
the night and yesterday morning
were sent home. They all expressed
a willingness to get back to the
folks"

Pretty Fine Scratches.

Most people consider a polished sur
face as something absolutely smooth
that is, something with no scratches
on it whatever. To polish a thing,
however. the very reverse is done to it.
1t is filed with very fine scratches.
All eyeglass lenses, glass for mirrors,
furniture. etc., are rubbed with fine
emery paper and later with an ex-
tremely fine powder which gives the
finishing touches in the shape of very
fine scratches. Now the question arises
as to just how fine the scratches must
be-that is, how far apart they must
be. for big scratches good distance
apart give anything but polished sur
face. The answer is that the scratches
or ridges between must be less than
one-quarter the wave length of the
light that falls on the surface for the
light to be reflected and thus give the
effect of polished surface. This is
less than one two-hundred-thousa
of an inch for light waves. No break
ing up of the waves is caused. and
they consequently are reflected in their
original form.-New York Tribune.

The Offense Defined.

General Craft, an attorney Of Terre
Haute. Ind, was once called into a
jewelry store in the town to settle a
dispute.
"See here, general" explained the
proprietor, '1f 1 take a watch from
Mr. Smith here and make repairs that
cost me 10 cents and then keep it
hanging up for week and charge him
Sc when he comes to get it, what per-
centage do | make? We have been
figuring for half an hour and only get
up to 900 per cent, and that is but a
dollar, so we decided to leave it to
you"
"Well," said the general gravely,
you must know that it is a fact, and
it has been demonstrated by calculat-
ing machines, that at certain points In
progressive numbers the law govern
ing them changes. In your case the
law would change long before it reach
ed the Sc and would run out of per-
centage and into what is known and
designated as larceny"

Women and Stocks.

Women spectators have a habit Of
giving to brokers orders with a string
attached TO them. A woman who
owned some bank stock asked broker
to sell 1t at $50 if he thought she
could not get any more for it. The
market In this stock had been inactive
for months, and $50 was the highest
price ever recorded for it. The next
day the broker had q chance to sell
the stock at $50. 1t SO happened that
on the same day lively demand for
this bank stock developed, and before
the day was over 1t was selling at
300. The broker wrote to his woman
customer that he had sold her stock
for $3.50 share and would she send
her certificate to him for delivery to
the purchaser? She refused to deliver
the stock. ..
you ought. to have known better
than to sell it for 250," she remon-
strated. 81 am going to sell it today
myself for 300"
1t was not until the broker appealed

The question is often debated as to
whether persons who lose their lives
In fire developing with great rapid
ity undergo extreme physical suffer
ing An authoritative opinion is ex-
pressed by the New York Medical Jour-
nal, which says: Unnecessary an
guish of mind has probably been felt
by relatives Of unfortunate workers
killed in factory fires by reflection on
the supposedly agonizing pain caused
by such a death. Where a great bulk
of highly infammable substances is
quickly consumed in closed space the
result is the production of large guam

it is well known. combines with the
