Edoubtedly snrnasses any other struc-
lure in the state
Owing to the fact that the old

OIL AND GAS

Reports from the eastern fields
have, as q rule, been light for several
months, and this was further accentu-
sated yesterday by. the holiday. When
operations were more strenuous there
lsas5not SO close an observance of hol-
sidays. but at this time there is no
TERRITORY under development to call
out active operations. Gushers are few
and far between and operators are
scarcely anticipating anything of the
I kind in any section of the fields now
6Hnder deTelo pment. The work under
way is confined principally to the old
districts, and a large percentage Of
the competitions fail TO find oil in
such quantities as to give them u
place in the producing list.

"OH! so WEAK
"But Cardui, The WOman's Tonic,
Helped Me So Much"

Jacksonville, Ind. = Miss Maud
Harris, Of r. F. D. No. 2, this city,
says: II had serious womanly troubles
for three months, and it was so bad,
at times, could hardly do my work,
and oh! was so weak. l can truly
say, however, that Cardui has helped
me greatly.
took only three bottles Of Cardui
but l am cured of my trouble.
Before I began the Cardui treat
ment, I only weighed go pounds, but
1 soon began to gain, and got up to
1O2 in short time, and am now feel
ing fine.
Cardui is certainly great medicine
for women"
Don't allow yourself to become
weak and all rundown, from wom-
anly troubles. Follow the example of
Miss Harris. Take Cardui, the wom-
ans tonic. It will surely help you, as
it has so many others in the past 80
years.
Headache, backache, nervousness,
sleeplessness, tired, worn-out feeling,
are all signs Of womanly trouble.
Other women get relief by taking
Cardui. Why not you?
Begin. taking Card-u-i, today
you'll he glad YOU did. NcBi

Never before since the country was
settled has there been better pros
pect for crops than at the present
time. There is moisture enough in
the ground right now to last the
wheat If not another drop should fall
between now and the first of June,
which is not likely to happen. Plenty
OF moisture at this time means but
very little wind during the spring
months, and the high winds are more
TO be feared by wheat raisers than
any other calamity. With this dan
ger eliminated, the farmers should,
like Mr.. Bryan on the eve of election,
face the future In confidence and
hope"

Nearing The Last DAYS

O. l.. Voter OF lola writes me
that all this talk of world peace is
foolishness and quotes numerous
passages of Scripture to prove his con-
tention. He is satisfied that we are
living in the last days of the earth
and destruction is just ahead.
The people ought to see this, ac-
cording to Mr.. Voter, but IL
will he as it was in Noah's day. 1t
will be recalled that the population
generally around Noah's neighbor
hood guyed the old man considerably
while he was building the ark and
predicting the food. Noah, however,
just kept pegging away at his boat,
possibly pausing occasionally to tell
one of the scoffers that he wouldn't
think 1t so funny when he had to
climb Tree to get out of the wet
while the water was raising on him
at the rate OF foot a minute.
Now for all know Mr.. Voter may
be right, but wouldn't it be most
serious calamity if everybody believed
as he doesY II all or even II major
ity were convinced that the world is
just about coming to an end there
would be the most terrific panic in
side OF the next twenty-four hours
that the world has ever seen. All
business would stop. Nobody would
plant and sow, for they would say,
whats the use?"
If the world is about to come to an
end, 1t can't be helped, and 1t is bet
ter that the good Lord has permitted
the people to be blind so that they
cannot see the coming events that
cast their shadows before. We know
that we must all die, but nature has
wisely provided that we do not know
when and go on as If death was a
hundred years away.
1t may, as matter of fact, be very
close at hand. Many people are going
to die tomorrow who are planning
what they will do for the next ten or
fifteen or maybe forty years. II they
knew their impending fate it would
distress them, make them miserable
Ii all of us knew just when we are to
die | think most Of us would spend
lot of time In useless and painful
worry about 1t.
AS l have said, Mr.. Voter may be
right, but for my part l am glad l do
not know he is right. II the world
Is going tn smash within the next few

The town is full of hoboes. They
are becoming nuisance in the resi-
dence parts of town, as many as a
half dozen calling at certain homes
in a half day. The majority of them
make no pretense of working and are
content to live on handouts of those
who are charitably inclined. A few
days In jail on a charge of vagrancy
holds no terrors for them, as they
are sure of three reasonably good
meals a day and place TO sleep at
night. However, the same length Of
time on the streets under the sur
veillance of the city marshall might
take little of the wanderlust out of
their hides and make them move on
or go to honest labor. Total idleness
gives them an opportunity to hatch
up deviltry, and If the town gets rid
of them without some loss it will be
wonder Kansas has law against
"vags" 1t should be rigidly enfor.
