SALE DAY 0. X.
SAY MERCHANTS

Last night at the meeting Of the
Retailers the chief topic OF discussion
was remarkable success Of the free
market day sale, as now conducted
by tlie association.
Ii was pointed out that though the
past few months have been what is
considered the slow time Of year for
market day sales, the success has been
phenomenal and the showing made is
worthy Of comment The sale has
come through the dull months with
eolors flying, and the association is
still ahead Of the game as to the
financial end OF the proposition, the
money raised for the maintanance Of
the free sales day. The reports OF
the sale days held during the summer
were read and that the megahants
were pleased is putting II mildly
Judging the future months by the
past the sale viii soon surpass all
eur expectations said member Of

that nearly the whole section was un-

CHEMICAL APPARATUS LOCATES

thirteen years.
The details Of the instrument he
uses are kept a secret BY the inven-

weighs less than eight ounces. Con
oerning its invention the doctor,
who is we'll known over this section
Of the country says the sight Of wa
ter witches looking for water started
him to think on the subject when he
was a lad OF four years. But while
attending the ST. Louis medical school
after he had grown 10 manhood. he
first began a series Of experiments
in chemistry that lead to The discoy-
cry
Much Of his spare time in the years
that he was practicing his profession
was spent IN thought and experiment
on the subject til. sixteen years ago
he succeeded in inventiug an appara-
tus that would reveal the presence Of
oil and gas. but it was also affected
by the presence OF water in large
quantities Four years more Of enper-
iments IN chemical processes were rel
quired TO perfect the discovery SO that
he could distinguish the presence Of
oil from that Of large qualities Of

where he found that he could predict
with certainty whether a wen would
be a producer or dry hole
But the practice OF his profession

discovery until about a year ago. At
that time he began to work out Grady

people, but they pulled off forty fse.
from where he located them, so that

the oil stratum
He investigated The Funk property
near Cement and found that there was
an oil stratum there eight feet wide.
He says Che present we'll is being bored
six feet from the stratum and that,
il they get oil, they will have to blow
the well to reach the oil pool

points, one, by silence, the preacher
