Would Record Campaign Lies.

Washington, Aug. pa record OF
campaign lies" is the unique pro
posal made by Representative viii
liam alfalfa BID Murray of Okla
homa. He insists that candidates,
when filing their official accounts of
campaign expenses should be requir.
ed to file a record under oath a
"list of all prevarications, falsehoods
and lies he has invented or circu-
lated or printed against his opponent
or any of them"
Representative Rucker of Missouri
jocularly suggested to Murray that
such a record would completely
swamp the election officials and
clerks from one end of the country
to the other with additional and
unnecessary work. He said the worn
would be unnecessary because the
general public knows that almost
every other word spoken by candi-
dates who are campaigning, are
stretched to some extent when they
are directed against the opponent.

The Milliken Refining company re.
Gently shut down it's million dollar
plant at Vinita pending negotiations
to secure a higher grade of crude oil
from the Cushing field. Producers in
the shallow fields from whom the re-
filming company had been taking 1000
barrels of oil per day were left in the

er Henshaw took the matter up with

SNAKE EGGS TNcUBATED."
Muskogee Man Hatches Rather in
Heat of Coffee Roaster.

Muskogee, Okla, Aug. 20-Hatch
ing rattlesnake eggs by the heat from
a coffee roaster is the "incubatorial'
achievement claimed by e. G. La
Bree. Mike Monahan, a railroad EN-
ploye, found a nest of eggs buried
in the sand while on an outing in
Arkansas. and he sent three of the
eggs to LaBree. Both thought the
eggs were those of turtle and La
Bree put them in a box and set
them on top of a coffee roaster.
In a few days one of the eggs
began to show pip" markings. Soon
a diamOnd-backed rattlesnake about
fifteen inches in length made its ap-
pearance, he says. The other two
eggs did not hatch. The little snake
died in a few days, but LaBree's
friends say the experiment proves
that rattlesnake eggs can be hatched
in an inGbator

LESS M EAT
Advice Of Family Physician.

RoVlce OF FANNY physician.
Formerly people thought meat nee
essary for strength and muscular
vigor
The man who worked hard was sup.
posed to require meat two or three
ferently.
1t is now a common thing for the
family physician to order less meat,
as in the following letter from n. Y.
man:
Il suffered for years with dyspepsia
and nervousness. My physician ad-
vised me to eat less meat and greasy
foods generally. | tried several
things to take the place of my usual
breakfast of chops, fried potatoes,
etc, but got no relief until l tried
Grape-N Nuts food.
After using Grape-Nuts for the ce-
real part Of my meals for two years,
j am now a well man. Grape-Nuts
benefited my health far more than
the medicine I had taken before.
My wife and children are health
Ter than they have been for years,
and We are very happy family,
largely due to Grape-Nuts
I'VE have been so much benefited
by Grape-Nuts that it would be un-
grateful not TO acknowledge it.
