THE PREvARICAToR'S CLUB.

I In a little country village, a crowd
of loafers around a store got TO talk
ing about echoes, and Jim sanders
| said, down where he was bc.H aLl
! raised, there was an echo, and he
used to put it to "A peculiar use.
He said that every night before ne
went to bed he would put his head
ouJ of the window and say:
Jim Sanders, Seven o'clock; time
to get up"
He would start that echo going
and next morning at : o'clock it
would get back and say; Jim San
ders. Seven o'clock time to get up
Deacon Witherspoon said he didn't
know much about echoes, but he'd
seen it rain about as hard as any
body ever seen it rain. Somebody
said
Deacon how hard did you ever see
it RAIN
We'll, SIR said the Deacon, once
upon time when was at home,
we had an old cider barrel laying out
in the yard with both ends out and
the bung-hole up and would you be-
lieve it. it NAMED so hard into that
bung-hole that water couldn't run out
OF both ends fast enough and it
swelled mp and busted"
We thought that was pretty good
for a deacon.
Reuben Henry said he'd never seen
it rain very hard, but he'd seen some
mighty cold weather. Somebody said:
'Rube, how cold did you ever see it
get?"
He said We'll, sir, one time when
/ was living down in Pickaway coun,
ty, in hog-ldlling time, we had a ket-
tie of water setting on the stove, and
we took it out in the yard and it
froze so doggone quick the ice was
hot. From Norman +. Macks Ma

GOVERNOR ISSUES
NOTE TO APPLICANTS
WANTS LESS POLITICS AND MORE
BUSINESS - WORK OF STATE
GOES FIRST.

Demands upon the time of Cover
nor Lee Cruce during the last week
have been SO great by those desirous
of appointment to office, and their
friends, that in the future a different
system of handling the affairs of the
executive Office will be instituted.
During the last six days that Lee
Cruce has been governor of Okla
homa, his time, which should be
given to caring for the public's bust
ness, has been taken up by appi-
cants for office, until he has been
unable to give the office the time
he desires.
Monday morning Governor Cruce
will move his office to the old high
school building on East Fourth
street, where other state officers are
quartered. A different system of
handling the office will be instituted,
regarding which the following state
ment was issued from the governors
office:
The governor finds it necessary
to institute certain changes in the
matter of handling public business
from that which has prevailed during
the last week. Beginning Monday,
his office will be III the old high
school building on East Fourth street,
where he will arrange to take care of
public matters From the time he
begins work in the morning until
the office is closed for the day his
entire time will be devoted to at.
tending to the affairs of the public.
Under no consideration will the pub
lie business be neglected further in
the interest of applicants for appoint
ment to POSITIONS
Any time that he is not engaged
at public duties he will gladly give
audience to applicants for appoint
ment and their friends. During the
day members of the legislature, state
officials and those holding positions
under the administration will be
given the right of way. The COVER
nor wants it understood that after
his days work is ended the hearing
of applications is ended, and under
no consideration will he hear appli-
cants for appointment. From supper
until he retires his time will be de-
voted to members of the Legislature
and to matters of public interest
THE governor does not want this
statement to be construed as a dis.
courtesy to applicants, but he de-
sires to impress the fact that not
as much time can be given them as
during the last week. He trusts that
the seekers of appointments will take
the proper view of the situation."-

CATARRH
AsYsTEMIC BLOOD DISEASE

Catarrh is not merely an affection
of the mucous membranes it is a
deep-seated blood disease in which the
entire circulation and greater part oi
the system are involved. 1t is more
commonly manifested in the head,
nose and throat, because of the sensi-
tive nature of these membranes, and
also because they are more easily
reached by irritating influences from
the outside. The symptoms of Ca
tarrh, such as a tight feeling in the
head, nose stopped up, throat clogged
and dry, hacking cough, etc, show
that the tiny blood vessels of the mu-
cous membranes are badly congested
and infamed from the impurities in
the circulation. To cure Catarrh per-
manently the blood must be purified
and the system cleansed of all un-
healthy matter. Nothing equals
S. S. S. for this purpose. 1t attacks

NEW LONDON DE.
FEATED Il To D

The Grand Rapids High School Foot
Ball team beat the New London High
School Foot Ball team II to Satur-
day afternoon on the high school
campus.
New London started the game by
kicking off from the east end of the
field. Grand Rapids tried series of
forward passes, but fumbled badly,
this was partly because of having the
sun in their eyes while trying to catch
the pass. Some consistent line buck
ing and fake formations took the ball
rapidly into the enimies' territory.
After about thirteen minutes of play,
Weeks went over the line for the first
touch down and Barrett kicked goal
The ball was put into play with only
a few minutes left Of the first quarter.
Karnatz secured the ball and made
the one big sensational run of the
game, making so yards before being
tackled. Immediately after that,
time was called. Grand Rapids 6,
New London 0.
Second quarter started with the
ball in Grand Rapids possession

Minard who was suspended from his
position as principal of the Marquett
High school on account of the notori-
ETY. which followed his marriage a
few weeks after his first wife COM
mitted suicide, is again in the lime
light.
This time the charges are contain
ed in a sensational bill filed yester-
day in the superior court to have set
aside the will of the late Mrs. Matte
Minard, who took her life.
1t is claimed that this is not the
real will of Mrs. Minard and that
Minard took the last will, which bore
the date of June Is, 1908, from a SAFE
deposit box in their home. on the af
ternoon of the day previous to Mrs
Minard's death.
The bill charges that the will filed
by Minard was mutilated with sew
eral ink marks drawn through the
portion leaving considerable silver an
glassware to personal friends of Mrs
Minard Minard is living with his

FALL OPENING A
GREAT SUCCESS

Abel & Podawiltz Co.'S big
fall opening sale started Satur-
day and Judging from the num-
Der of people who attended, it
was big success. The excel
lent showing of fall and winter
clothing for men and boys is a
credit to the store and to the
city. Not only is there fine
line of clothing carried, but the
showing of furnishings, shoes,
etc, is far ahead of the ordinary
store in cities, of Grand Rapids
class; in fact, it would be hard
to find better equipped store
in much larger cities.

banks are very beautiful and pleas
ant as We glide between them; but
our true journey lies the other way,
the real treasure mines of life are in
the hills near the sources Of the
river; and we must row, row hard
against the current if we would reach
them. Let US row, not float through
life; steer, not drift
When the people can be made to
understand that it actually costs more
in time and money to travel over a
poor road than it does to. travel over
a good one, they will be less inclined
to begrudge the expense of good
roads, and what is more important
still, will be willing and enxious to
put the business of roadmaking into
the hands of intelligent men who I'M
derstand the business. Poor roads
are the expensive things that curse
