Giant Eagles Captured.

Kingfsher, Okla. -Four big
golden headed ca giles were
brought here by farmers who
captured them and killed IA fifth
in the Gyp Hills, northwest of
here. The farmers said a flock
of seven of the birds had their
aries in the hills and have been
carrying off small stock in such
numbers that they organized to
exterminate them.
The birds have taken away
lambs and pigs, and some of the
residents assert that the eagles
instead of gypsies carried away
an infant child from the COM
munity few months ago. One
of the captive birds measures
nearly eight feet from tip to tip
of its outspread wings

Should Keep Name in Paper

No business man in any town
should allow a newspaper pub
lished in his town to go without
his name mention somewhere in
its columns. This applies to all
kinds Of business general stores
dry goods stores, groceries, fur
niture dealers, professional men,
and in fact al classes of business
men. This does not mean that
you should have a whole or a
half or even a quarter page ad.
in every issue of the paper but
your name ard business should
be mentioned if you DO not use
more than a two line space. A
stranger picking up a newspaper
should be able to tell just what
business is represented in a town
by looking at the business men
toned in the paper. This is the
best possible town advertising.
The man who does not advertise
his business does an injustice to
himself and his town. He is the
man who expects the paper to do
most of the boosting for his
town. The man who insists on
sharing the business that comes
to town but refuses to adver-
tise his business is not doing his
share of the boosting. The life
of any town depends upon the
live, wideawake and liberal bust
ness men it. -Corydon Republi-

How To Glass Tobacco.

classes-leaf, Jugs and trash.
Give the low grades the benefit
of all doubts. Tie in small, neat
hands, say, 6 to 10 leaves to the
hand. keep length tied seperate
whether you bulk it seperate or
not. In this way you catch
every buyer. There are some
buyers, who wont buy tobacco
in two classes or large hands.

ANYONE SEEN LENAg

Anyone seen Lena? Her hubby
George Dean, editor of the Logan,
CIV Va Banner, is looking for his
Lena to whom he was married few
months ago. The distracted editor
has plastered the eastern police head
quarters with the following circular:
Realizing that Lena was weary
assisting in the grind incident to
getting out paper week after
week in a one man shop. We gave
her fare and sent her off, thinking
that a couple of weeks with rela-
tives would do her good. We have
not seen her since. The slanderous
tongues of certain people probably
have separated Us from her.
The Banner man is not Saint
neither is he any more of devil
than most of the editors that have
struck Logan. Mrs. Dean may not
have been an angel: in fact there
are mighty few such of either sex
these days. At any rate one need
not expect to find any in Logan.
The editor has ben bad as any
OF them; but We got married with
full knowledge of the past and
settled down, hoping to make
| something of each other. Nobody
gets much credit these days try
ing to be good"
Lena is fond of good shows.
| Attends regularly. Usually sleeps
| till noon. She was converted two
| years ago at Buchanan. Ky. What
| ever she may have DONE her hus-
| bands arms are open to receive
her back
From the description Lena is
willing helpmate and we hope tina
Mr. Dean finds his missing bette
half. Next time he'll know bette
than packing his Lena off for visi

THE MINIMUM WAGE.

However well intentioned the
crusade for a minimum wage for
working girls may have been, it is
slowing up perceptibly, and bids fair
to accomplish nothing.
1t is a matter of supply and de-
mand. The Richmond Virginian puts
it bluntly when 1t says.-'The
minimum wage may be all right if
it does not drive industries and es-
Establishments out of business and
leave the employees of both sexes
with no wages of any kind, which
might, in practical results, be worse
than low wages"
The only way apparently to help
the working girl is to respect her and
see that she is accorded justice when
she has cause for complaint.
The problem of the minimum wage
is not SO serious in the smaller towns
of the country as it is in cities like

forth the sufferings in a Spanish

ton of which would be given any
one advancing a trifie to finance the
release, which was reported easy OF
accomplishment.
Oh, yes, and there was an only

thrown into the painful story foi

Usual feeling of men receiving
