|F YOU WANT
TIN CANS, JUST
ADVE R T|SE
THEY WILL COME EVEN If FROM
THE CITY DUMP. FOR WAYS
THAT ARE DARK AND TRICKS
THAT ARE VAlN-THE KID, ETC.

When Mayor Mullen advertised that
tickets would be furnished TO all the
kids who brought a sack to the Air
dome, he did not realize that he was
going to get 80 many old tins as he
has received for the past three days,
but leave it to a kid TO get by with
new scheme for getting what he
wants, and the result is usually in IA
yor of the kid.
After the visible supply Of tin cans
had disappeared fro mthe rear Of all
Ardmore residences as if by magic,
the kids and kidlets began to look
about for other fields Of endeayor and
what could possibly have been more
natural than that they should turn
their faces toward the city dumps,
where cans have been accommodating
for years.
Once the subject was proposed, it
was not long until long lines of boy
propelled carts were noted by the cit
izens OF the outlying wards making
haste toward a certain objective point
outside the city limits. Before long
the same carts returned, heavily Ia
den with huge sacks containing old
tin cans, and as it was old tin cans
that had been advertised for, it was
not long for people along Main
street, to learn that it pays to adyer-
tise. The cans have not been coming
in so rapidly today since the source
of supply outside the city limits has
been barred, beside, the city dads do
not relish the idea of handling the
same can so many times, they be-
ieve that once it has been dumped,
it should stay dumped.

There is only one way TO cure deaf

remedies. Deafness Is caused by an
innamed condition of the mucous lin

this tube is inlamed you have a

and when it is entirely closed, Deaf

HARMFUL BLOW TO FARMER.
Railway Expert Declares Economical
Handling Would Effect Saving
Equal to Proposed Profits.

Chicago.-Basing his testimony on
statistics tabulated in % exhibits, w.
M. Hopkins, formerly manager of the
transportation department of the Chi
ago board of trade, Saturday sought
to prove that western grain freight
rates should not be advanced.
The principal contentious voiced by
him before w. M. Daniels, interstate
commerce commissioner, who is hear
systems for permission to advance
their freight rates on certain commod-
tiles, were that a saving equal to the
proposed increase of 1 cent per 100
pounds might be effected If a more eco
nomical method of handling grain were
practiced by the railroads, and that
grain now pays more than a fair share
of the total freight transportation
charges.
Illustrative of methods of handling
grain which he classed as not econom-
ical Mr.. Hopkins cited the unsatisfac-
tory character of many cars furnished
tie shipper for grain loading, failure
to furnish receipts at initial stations,
and unnecessary delays in hauling, de-
lays at terminals and unnecessary
switching.
Grain movement is highly remuner-
alive to the carriers" declared the wit
ness, because it loads to capacity and
moves from the western fields to the
extreme east and south of the coun-
try"
Judge A. e. Helm of the Kansas
railroad commission said:
''The proposed advance in rates on
grain and grain products and on live
stock affects the interests of the farm.
