Oklahoma received a cold wave dur

have been cause for apprehension,
but the multitude of insects hatched
out during the warm weather of
the early days of the year were de-
stroyed by this freeze, and it was
a grea advantage to the farmer that
the warm days of midwinter hatch
ed the eggs of the insects.

How to Avoid Automo-
bile Back.

The automobile is coming into
such general use that any advice
to it's users is of general interest.
A great many people, in crank
ing their cars, strain their back
or drop a stitch" and if this is
once started it usually happens
more easily another time. Many
people, after riding for any length
of time, are tired in tne back
when they get out. If this is
kept up, the pain or weakness
increases, until many times the
person is laid up with what is
called lumbago or rheumatism.
Both of these conditions are COM
monty due to the wrong way of
using the muscles of the back.
In cranking, keep the back
straight, like the "oarsman's
back" Bend from the hips,
swapping the crank over the
Strengthening at knee and hip,
but do not bend at the middle, or
the waist line. In sitting in the
car keep the back straight also.
Get the hips we'll back against
the back of the seat, and, if the
upholstery make the shoulders
droop, put a robe, cushion, E
book, or anything at the hollow
of the back to prevent this. d.
not slouch in the seat and do moi
sit on the lower part of the spine
This reverses the normal curves
of the spine and must NEAR

Composition on Hens.
Here is a boys funny essay on
hens, which was handed to his
school teacher the other day:
Hens is curious animals. They
don't have no nose, nor no teeth,
nor no ears. They swallow their
vittles whole, and chew it up in
their crops inside Of 'em. The
outside Of the hens is generally
put into pliers and feather dust
ers. The inside of the hen is
sometimes filled up with marbles
and shirt buttons and such. A
hen is much smaller than most
other animals, but they'll dig up
more tomato plants than any
thing that amt a hen. Hens is
useful to lay eggs for plum pud'
dings. I like plum pudding

| We left Cincinnati on the l.

night, January Having taker
a Pullman sleeper, we can not
tell much about the looks of the
country. We got into Nashville
at $50 am. next day and our
friepds were at the depot with a
truly southern welcome. Nash
vile is certainly a bustling city :;
but smoky! that does not do it
justice. 1t seems like a heavy
cloud over the city sometimes.
We are visiting in sight of the
hill which used to be crowned by
Fort Negley. The remains of
the old breastworks and the pla-
ces for the cannon can still be
seen. We were up on the hill
one day and one can see all over
the city, if it is not too smoky,
The view is beautiful, Bullets
are still picked up occasionally.
Wesaw several large holes where
people have been digging for hid
den treasures. We visited the
State House, and found several
improvements since our former
visit. The graves of President
Polk and wife are no longer seen,
A pavilion of granite is built over
them with a stone with inscrip-
ton under it. Some men were
digging the day we were up, and
said they were looking for can
non balls.
We have visited the great res
ervoir where the city water IS
kept. This is at the top of a very |
high hill and a leak finally caused
a break about a year ago, which
away houses and every
thing in it's path like chaff. There
are tons upon tons of rock piled
by the action of the water.
The schools here run to the
tenth grade. The pupils go at
8 80 and are out at 11:3O, and
school is over for the day. Sew
entyfive dollars a month is not
bad for that much work.
There are some first class the
aters here. with good plays on
the bills, but it seems as if ev-
cry one has the moving picture
habit. And that kind of show is
too numerous to keep tab on.
We have been seeing something
of the social side of Nashville
life, also. A stranger does not
remain strange very long. If
you have friends to introduce
you, that is sufficient for a south
erner. His friends friend is his,
and all they can give is at your
service. The young people are
remarkable for their courtesy and
good breeding. Their manner
toward their elders is most re.
spectful and attentive.
