Drost, it is said, paid DR.. Klass
$3.50 tor the attention which the
doctor paid his wife during and i'm

In his petition Drost alleges that
in June, 1909, his wife became very

on her. DIR. Klass waited on Mrs.
Drost until July 19, when, on his ad-
vice, she was sent to the hospital,
where she underwent "a difficult OPP

home DR. Klass again took charge
of her case, so Drost says, and it
was then that the doctor advised that
it was necessary for Mrs. Drost to
take a great deal of outdoor exercise,
such as buggy rides, walks, etc.
Drost was very busy with his work
and could not take these rides and

NOW IF ANYTHING HAPPENS.
Ever Eas a Lemon For Bone in the
Throat?

Some new hints for the housekeep-
er, or for any woman FOR that mat
/ ter, are given in an English maya
zine called the Matron. For example.
one needn't be a housekeeper, or
even woman, to be glad to know
what to do when a fish4bOne is stuck
in ones throat.
According to this authority, the
/ proper thing is to hand the sufferer
lemon. If it is sucked for little
while the bone will move on. In one
case it succeeded after the bone had
been in the throat two days.
Another use for lemon juice is to
remove warts. This is done by drop
ping it on twice day. To retain
the color and gloss Of white silk
blouse after washing put a teaspoon
full of alcohol into the rinsing water
This keeps it from turning yellow
and gives it when ironed the gloss
of new silk
To clean the lace yoke and sleeves
Of waists sprinkle the lace freely
with powdered boraX, then roll it up
and fasten with pins. Let it remain
for at least twelve hours, then shake
out and brush with a clean soft
brush. To remove ink stains from
carpets take a saucer of fresh milk
and clean sofc rag. Renew the milk
If necessary and wash finally with
clean water. To take coffee stains
from any material rub little glyc-
erin into the stain and then wash
with hot soap and water. To pre-
vent milk from scorching when it is
being boiled sprinkle a little sugar
into the saucepan after the milk is
poured into it. Do not stir the milk,
even though the pan is a very thin
one. The milk will not burn, but will
leave the saucepan as clean as if only
water had been in it.

When he learned of the doctors
attentions to his wife, he claims that
the doctor was told of the talk by
another patient. Drost claims that
the exercise was still kept up, but
after that his wife and the doctor
met secretly, saying nothing to him
about the course" through which
the gallant doctor was taking his
good-looking patient
Soon after this pretty Mrs. Della
Drost obtained her freedom, $500
alimony and $3.50 for her attorneys.
After Drost had paid the doctor
$3.50 he became angry about the at
tentions which the doctor was paying
his wife and when DR.. Klass filed
suit against him for $l4S more, ac-
count of services rendered Mrs Drost,
he thought that it was about time
to take some action in the matter.
Drost claims that the fun his wife
and the doctor had should more than
make up for this balance and the
pain and injury which he sustained
by virtue of the physical culture
course should be paid for by the
doctor

Blazing Sun.

All day long, the hottest day of the
and women walked, almost staggeri44a
ahead at times. Every minute the
sun grew hotter and the sand more
burning, until it seemed as though
those in the little band could proceed
no farther. They knew the water
would give out if they paused and al
ready experiencing the horrors OF
thirst upon the desert, they decided
to press on until they could walk no
farther.
When almost at the limit of their
endurance, when every step was a liv-
ing agony. the sun began to sink in
the west, and to their tired and aching
eyes and muscles came the relief of
night with its comparatively cool
shade.
The little party plodded along until
Newhall was reached, getting into that
railway point in time to take the 4:i0
O'Clock train this morning.
George G. Benton, public automo-
bilist, was dispatched with his Cadil-
lac today to bring back the standard
car from the desert. Mr.. Benton has
taken with him a new housing for
the broken car and expects that with
half a days work he will be able to
start back 1t is almost needless to
say that he has outfitted himself for
his trip, taking along enough water for
protracted stay upon the desert.

TUlSA'S EAlTH.
Assessors Report Shows Taxable
Wealth of Oil City.

Tulsa. Okla, May 27.-The figures
OF City Assessor John Smiley, whose
work of assessing propert' in Tulsa
has now been completed, presents
some interesting information and
shows total of real property of $9,,
1926 and of personal property 81
191,77l.
This is a gain of nearly two million
in real estate and a gain of over
100000 in personal property over
the city assessment of 1910. 1t is a
decided gain over the assessments OF
two years ago. the combined personal
and real property being S7,267 1856 in
1909.
Something of the vast growth Of
Tulsa in the past three years can be
determined by the gain over the as
sessment in 1905 which was real prop
erty S5,555,544, personal $l,720,65l.
The combined taxable property in Tul-
sa county three years ago, including
everything didn't amount to what the
real estate property was assessed at
this year.

interesting figures in connection with
