Cyclones Reveal Prosperity.

John Fletcher Cox of Comanche
county, Kan, told his Washington
friends in the lobby Of the Arlington

good advertisement.
There was cyclone at Eskridge

accounts of the twister told of auto
mobiles. pianos. Brussels carpets and
finger bowls being strewn about by
the wind. Doesn't that read like pros
perity? A few years ago cyclone in
that district would have had nothing
more valuable than rag carpets. bro
