documents, valuable curios, and other
material of this kind, which disap-
pear rapidly with the passing years.
The state University at Norman is
receiving considerable such material
from various parts of the state and
is placing it in a fireproof building
where it will be perfectly safe, and ut
the same time where it can be seen
by students and by visitors. Some of
this material is given to the Uni
versity; some is merely sent to it for
safe-keepng. The most recent ad-
dition of this kind TO the University's
ethnologica museum consists of the
Posey collection, which is said to be
one of the best of its kind in the
state. 1t consists of pottery, basketry,
wooden spoons, ladies, bows, arrows,
ball sticks, etc.

SCHOOL
PER CAPITA
!: !: !: :: !. !. !. IS LARGE
STATE SCHOOL FUNDS FOR
1914 AMOUNT TO 81
PER CHILD

| Oklahoma City, Okla, Jan. 2.-For
the first time in the history of the
state the apportionment OF the state
school funds for the year 1914 will
amount to more than two dollars per
capita for each child OF school age
in the state Prior to statehood, with
less than half the present scholastic
population, the apportionment was
never as much as it will be for next
year.
The first year after statehood the
apportionment was Csc per capita
with scholastic population of 49,
5Ss The scholastic population upon
which the next apportionment will be
based is 5N 900. Although there has
been a gain Of more than $4,000 in
the scholastic population of the state
since 1908 the apportionment has in
creased from Csc to more than $500.
The permanent school fund from
which these apportionments are de-
rived is identically the same now as
in 1908 yet the revenue derived from
this investment has increased from
$311,143 in 1908 omore than $1,115,-
10000 in 1914. an increase of more
than $So0000.00 in six years.
Supt. Wilson is especially gratified
by this showing and declares that if
the present policy of the state school
land board should be continued fer
a few more years that the state an.
rortionment will bear half the ex-
pense Of conducting the common
schools which will result in cutting
the local school district tax half in
two. If the suits involving the col
lection of the oil and gas royalties
upon leases recently made by the
board should terminate in favor OF
the state, the increased revenue to
the state, according to conservative
estimates will amount to more than
one dollar per capita each. year to
the school children Of the state.

high trees, from whence it flies down
TO attack defenseless travellers
that's how | came to meet one. How
ever, no harm is to be expected from
a wimpus II you know what to do
when you see one coming. tits sheer
folly to shoot at them, for a Wimpus
catches bullets in it's tetth and eats
them.
The only way to do when q
wimpus comes at you is to take a
small piece OF cheese, either Adam
or Swiss, or both or one Of them,
and tuck it securely on waterfall.
The wimpus makes swoop at the
cheese and gets mixed up with the
waterfall and gets its feet wet. II
makes wimpus awful mad to get
out when he gets his feet wet and
So he hunts around for nice piece
of grass to dry them on. The min
ute the wimpus lights on the grass
the hunter rushes at him and ties his
tail in a double bow knot. When a
wimpus has his tail tied in a double
bow knot he is conner, because
when he flies he always ducks his
head under his body to see who is
following him, and in doing this he
gets his head caught in the double
bow knot and chokes himself to
death.
Il certainly had narrow escape
that trip mused the Colonel, as he
passed the -makings" to Bill Brooks.

Chicago, Jan. "A search today BY

ing used in the treatment of can

Unless the person having the prec-

The speck of radium was imported
from France by st. Lukes hospital.
1t was kept in platinum capsule an
eighth of an inch in diameter and
three quarters of an inch long. Its
last appearance known to the hospital
staff was when the capsule was plac-

was inactive. The capsule was open

was gone

Mrs. Esther Emery, now visiting

which, when loosened from its coils, falls
to, her knees. Moreover 1T is of soft,
siiHy and fluffy texture and in color a

lead was covered with dandruff and
itched like mad all the time. tried fully
dozen different hair tonics, but they
were all the same and never did me a

in my home paper OF a simple home
prescription to make the hair grow that
was recommended by well known ply

Bay Rum and Menthol Crystals and ap-

1-2 drachm of Menthol Crystals and
started to use it. My how quickly my

If KIDNEYS AND !.
BLADDER BOTHER
Take Salts to Flush Kidneys and
keutralize Irritating Acids

Kidney and Bladder weakness re-
suit from uric acid, says a noted au-
thority. The kidneys filter this acid
from the blood and pass it on to the
bladder. where it often remains to ir-
ritate and inflame, causing a burning,
scalding sensation, or setting UP an
irritation at the neck of the bladder,
obliging you to seek relief two or
three times during the night. The
sufferer is in constant dread, the
water passes sometimes with scald-
ing sensation and is very profuse;
again, there is difficulty in avoiding
it,
Bladder weakness, most folks call
1t, because they can't control urina-
tion. While 1t is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful, this is
really one of the most simple all
ments to overcome. Get about four
ounces Of Jad Salts from your pharm-
acist and take tablespoonful in
glass of water before breakfast, con-
tinue this for two or three days. TINS
will neutralize the acids In the urine
50 it no longer is source of irrita-
ton to the bladder and urinary or
gans which then act normally again
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless.
and is made from the acid OF grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia. |
and is used by thousands of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders
caused by uric acid irritation Jad
Salts Is splendid FOR kindeys and
causes no bad effects whatever. n
Here you have a pleasant efferves-
cent lithia water drink, which quickly
relieves bladder trouble. For sale by
