NOW SOLD IN AMERICA.
In Less Than Five Years Partisan Sage, the Splendid Hair Tonic, is
 Sold All Over America.

There is reason for the phenome- nal sale of Parisian Sage in the Unit ed States during the past three years
 And the reason is plain to all: Pa risian Sage does inst what 1t is ad- yertised to do.
 Ask SorTells Drug Go and Southern Pharmacy about it. they will tell you that they rigidly guarantee it to cure dandruff, stop failing hair or itching scalp in two weeks or money back.
 There is no reason whatever why any man or woman should fail to take advantage of the above generous of fer
 But one thing that has made Pa risian Sage SO famous is it's peculiar power to turn the harsh, unatt-active hair that many women possess into luxuriant and radiant hair in a short time. Women of refinement the country over are using it and it never disspoints.
 Sold by druggists everywhere and by Sorrells Drug Co and Southern Pharmacy for 50 cents large bottle.

TIME SCHEDULE
 OF I5 MINUTES.
INTERURBAN MUST GIVE CITY SERVICE OVER ITS BELT
 LINE IN THIS CITY.
Details of the Franchise are Thresh- ed Out and the Measure Will
 Pass at Next Meeting.

The Interurban street railroad will have to operate a fifteen minute schedule on it's belt line within the city, according to an amendment placed in the franchise last night af- ter fight led by Alderman Homer in favor Of the close schedule, and op posed by Alderman Pettitt, who fav. cred 9 minute clause in the frau. chise
 Alderman Horner took the position that if the franchise was worth any thing to the lnterurban people for city service it was worth operating cars at intervals offnot less than 15 minutes apart He was certain the service would not he worth anything to the public unless the cars were operated that often.
 Alderman Pettitt took issue, and stated that while it was likely the Interurban would operate at even more frequent intervals than l5 min utes if the business justified such operation, he thought 9 minutes was sufficient to place in the terms of the franchise.
 On the test vote Alderman Petit voted the only no to the 15 minute amendment, those voting for it be- ing Alderman Horner, Ellis, Bur- gamer. Riggsbee, Mooney, Gunther, Weaver. Ledwidge and Mclaughlin.
 The franchise was read twice, City Attorney Mclaughlin serving as reading clerk to the assembly and re. leving City Clerk Housley The ordinance is very lengthy one. and required more than two hours in the reading.
 The route of the Interurban as se- lected and finally agreed on is that the cars shall enter the city on Spring street, to Reserve avenue, down Reserve avenue to Court, on Court to Exchange. to Prospect, thence out Prospect avenue to Pecan street, Pecan street to Grand avenue, on Grand avenue to Seventh street, thence to South street, on South street to East street, on East street to Hobson avenue. Over Hobson avenue to Coombs street, thence to South Border street thence on to Cherry street, and across Grand ave nut to Elm street. thence on Elm street north to Valley street, on Val ley street to it's intersection of Ben ton street. then out east on Benton street 10 the city line.
 The difference in the general route as previously published is that the Tnterurhan comes in on Reserve ave- nue rather than going out on that avenue. the grade making it easier to come this way. Then Springs street plays small part in the route. that being used only short distance at the east end to come in the city, and Benton street being used for leaving the city.

wANAMAkER PAYS UP.
Makes Voluntary Settlement With
 Government for Customs.

Washington, March 11--John Wan amaker the Philadelphia and New York merchant. has paid to the gov ernment $100,000 to settle sums of which the treasury had been defraud- ed during the last fifteen years through irregular practices in the i'm portation of samples of merchandise.
 Treasury agents working up the in vestigation were confronted with the difficulty of finding records for the entire time involved. but upon the records of five years the govern ment's losses were approximated and settlement voluntarily offered by Mir Wanamaker was accepted as GOV ering the entire period over which the practices extended.
 It was found that it had been the practice of the customs examiner at Philadelphia, to pass samples at no value or an intrinsic one While the amount in each case was negligible compared to the volume of importa- tions, it amounted to a considerable sum.

The proposal to exhibit motion pic

has been in "statu quo" for about a
week. In plain English IL has been
dragging and the outlook isn't very
promising. Nearly everybody admits
that It is a good thing but there has
been a disposition upon the part OF
some TO hold back
That the advertising that the city
would receive would be Of immense
value is generally conceded. In fact,
il is believed that the benefits to the

resented in this great "moyie" show.
Il would look very bad to see Chicka-
sha, one of the best towns in the
bunch. missing from the film, and we
can't afford to have il so.
Moreover, this is great statewide
enterprise and the purpose of it is a
patriotic one. Chickasha must show
her state loyalty by supporting it and
thereby doing her part in giving the
state suitable building aud exhibit
at Frisco.
II is TO be earnestly hoped that our
enterprising citizens will put their
heads together and figure out the prob
lem Of raising the funds necessary to
handle the propositions What we need
to do is 20 open the spigot and turn
on the spirit Of community interest
and cooperation, mingled with local
and state pride and patriotism. Let's
do it for Chickasha and for Oklahoma.
