LIFE OF AMERICAN IN DANGER.

We haven't d BIT Of lingo blood in

upon John Kenneth Turner, the Amer
lean magazine writer who is now con
fined in a Mexican dungeon, we con-
tend that It Is time for our govern
ment to do Its duty.
Turner is the man who wrote Bar
barous Mexico published in the
American magazine a few years ago, a
series Of articles which shed the first
real light on actual conditions In Mex
ico and which had much to do with
bringing about the revolution that re-
eplted in the overthrow OF the Porfirio
Diaz regime. He was arrested in
Mexico but later released, only to be
fe!arrested on February % after en-
5oying three days liberty. That the
charge on which he is held is mere
pretext, his real offense being the
exposing Of "Barbarous Mexico
seems certain
Turner has written a letter which
was published in Sundays papers and
Il he states the facts correctly, the
treatment accorded him is enough to
bring the blush Of shame to every self
respecting American. That the United
States government would tolerate such

appear in the papers, but under any

MUCH NEEDED INSTITUTION.


The state maintains at Enid an IN
stitution for the education Of feeble
minded children There the mentally
defective are trained according to
their capacities and needs, the purpose
being to make Of them, as far as pos
sible, intelligent and useful citizens.
Certainly such an institution is called
for by humanitarian sentiments as
well as by the welfare OF the common
wealth.
In some states both adult and imma-
ture detectives are cared for in such
Institutions, but the Oklahoma school
is intended only for the young. There

Hints For the
Household

one of the best and simplest methods
Of venulating a bed room is that of
procuring a piece of wood inches in
depth and of the same breadth as the
window, ard inserting this along the
bottom of the frame after raising the
lower sash. The window should Their
be lowered onto the strip of wood. fresh
air entering the room in the center be-
tween the two sashes.
The longer candles are kept the bet
ter they are. Discoloration can be in
stantly removed by wipng with piece
Of flannel dipped in spirits of wine A
pinch Of fine salt in the cup Of wax
round the wick makes the candle last
longer and burn much better. Another
good tip is to varnsh the candles with
white Varnish. Don't use them for quite
ten days after this.
Often when one has purchased a pair
Of boots one doesn't know till they are
home that they creak. However, the
disagreeable noise may be stopped by
taking them back to the shoemaker and
asking him to spring them on each side
and insert between the solcs tea

costs only a trile and answers admira-

Is, tap each article with another of
