 He was himself again at once.
 He found he could even climb tele- phone pole with any of the "boys" If he wanted to.
 He was convinced. A year later MT. Higgins certain that the benefits were permanent and that he was really cured, wrote letter telling of his experience. He said:
 For fifteen years I went around as best could with two ruptures. at times SO painful that l was forced to take 10 my bed Had tried for relief many times with worthless trusses. but all turned out the same. no good for me.
 'I was advised to try a Schuiling Rupture Lock by a. friend. who claimed he was cured. which ] did. and in one year I was completely cured on both sides, health restored. feeling strong and active as a man of twenty.

TENNESsEEANS DOING MUCH
PUBLICITY WORK. THE CiTY'S
GROWTH DEMANDS EXPANSION

James S. Dunn "a member of the
law firm of Osborne & Dunn of Bristol

will remain here with Mr.. Osborne
and members of the Globe Realty Co.
until after the auction sale of lots in
College Hill addition next Thursday
and Friday.
This company which is putting on
the sale here consists of the livest
bunch of real estate men who have
been here in many days. They have
used printers ink in every manner
to attract. attention to their sale. Be
sides using space in the Ardmore pa
pers. they have used the weeklies in
every direction from Ardmore, and
personal representatives have visited
nearby towns to interest people in
the sale.
Some very pretty fortunes have
been made in Ardmore real estate,
and the big fortunes are to be made
yet. The town has just begun to
grow. 1t may reasonably be expect
ed that the population of the city
will be roubled shortly, rent on the
close-in property is getting to a point
where it is prohibitive to many, and
there must be a settling up of such
property as these people are offering
for sale. These men have come at the
right time, the city needs to expand
in that direction, and their work is
useful in the program that will keep

Osaaes Favor Pipe Line.

There has been much rumor as TO
the attitude of the Usage Indians
on the suggested federal pipe line
% the gulf. There is probably some
reason to believe that the Indians
may make an effort to place oD-
structions in the way of the navy
department, should the investigation
now under way lead to a conclusion
by the navy people that a pipe line
would be a good thing.
In this connection statement has
been made by Preston a. Shinn, at
torney for the tribe, in which he
argues for the pipe line. His state
ment and suggestion for members
of the tribe are as follows:
During the past few days oil has
decreased in price to the extent OF
2Oc.-from $1.O5 to SIC. On the
production in Usage county this
means a loss Of soc per day to each
member of the Usage tribe. y fam
uy of four will lose in excess of 81
Per day. 1t is said that the pipe
line companies are not able to han
die the production in the mid-con-
tinent field, and that is given as the
reason for the decline in prices. II
the cause for the decline is as above
stated. then we need more pipe lines.
Then it would seem that every
Osage would be in favor of the pro-
roscd government pipe line, to the
end that YOU may have the proper
facilities for the handling OF Your
OIL
81 would suggest that the mem
bers of the tribe give this matter
attention and that the same be taken
ND with the commissioner Of In
dian affairs. If the Osages favor the
proposed pipe line they should SO
ate to the commissioner. The
word has gone out through oil jour

pine line. There must have been
a mistake about this matter sa the
tribe has never considered the Ques-
tion. I feel sure that every mem

ton favors the proposed pipe line

Bishop Greer recently went to Sing
Sing and was locked up for short
time in the death house, whore he
prayed in the cells, and he spent
considerable time with the four gun

should be abolished, and for the
sake of society its walls should be
razed. As a substitute such prisons
as we have at Great Meadows should
be built Sing Sing cells are dark,
damp and in every way depressing,
with no sanitation at all except a
bucket. They are mentally, morally
physically and from every point OF
