DANGERS or DRAFT.

Drafts feel best when we are hot and
perspiring, just when they are most
dangerous and the result is neuralgia,
Stiff Neck, Sore Muscles or sometimes
an attack of rheumatism. In such cases
apply Sloan's Liniment. 1t stimulates
circulation to the sore and painful
part. The blood flows freely and in a
short time the stiffness and pain leave.
Those suffering from neuralgia or
neuralgia headache will find one or
two applications of Sloan's Liniment
viii give grateful relief. The agonizing
pain gives way to a tingling sensation
of comfort and warmth and quiet rest
and sleep is possible. Good for neuri-

STATE: MILITIA
IS ANXIOUS
FOR SERVICE:
NATIONAL GUARD OFFICERS SAY
TROOPS ARE WELL PREPARED,
WELL EQUIPPED, AND IN GOOD
CONDITION.


Oklahoma City, Okla, March %
The Oklahoma National Guard Is
anxious to be sent to the front when
necessity for soldiers other than the
regular army shall arise. The war de
partment has been notified by Adju-
tant General Canton to this effect.
That the need for volunteers Will
arise in connection with the Mexican
situation is the general belief among
military men Of Oklahoma. That this
need is near is also their opinion.
Officers Of the Oklahoma National
! Guard are all on tiptoe and all have
their eyes upon the necessary number
of men to recruit their companies to
war strength. Plans are made and
ready to be carried into effect at once
| to organize the necessary additional
troops of cavalry to fill out the present
| incomplete cavalry regiment, The in
| fantry regiment commanded by Coz.
Hoffman, is in as good condition of
| preparedness as any militia regiment
in the United States and its equip
ment is complete.
! The Oklahoma guard as the nucleus
of two full regiments Of volunteers and
several extra units, could be modified
in a few days II will be modified at
once when called upon. 1t is the
plan of Colonel Hoffman to secure auto
mobile trucks and motorcycles for
scout and supply service. He has been
offered an aeroplane by E. w. Mar
| land, a wealthy oil operator and that
has been accepted for the regiment.
With few additional machine guns,
| the infantry regiment of Oklahoma
will be ready for the field with the
best possible equipment.
Governor Williams is very deeply
interested in the preparedness of the
Oklahoma militia and has been de
voting much time to studying the mil
itary situation. He is so absorbed in
the possibilities and in his desire for
efficiency, that if occasion shall call
for troops from this state, it may not
be at all surprising if he shall decide
to take command of the Oklahoma
brigade, leaving the office of Cover
nor for a time to be administered by
the lieutenant governor.
While the officers of the Oklahoma
guard are sure that their men ard
equipment are in as nearly complete
state of preparedness as any national
guard troops, the most conservative of
these officers know that there is need
for mobilization and drilling and that
is not likely to be available before
active service should be attempted.
Have New Equipment.
Every effort has been made for some
! time past to supply the national guard
with ample equipment, and in this re-
speot and in general training, the
militia forces have never been in as
good condition as now The new equip
ment in hand includes supply wagons

IS
MORE POSITIVE
Rev. F. K. Dougherty Attrib-
uteS 1t to Faith in ReSur-
reCtion of Christ.

The Christian religion today is a
more positive vital reality than it
has ever been in the history Of man.
and IL rests upon the resurrection Of
the Lord Christ from the dead,
which. from the inception of Chris
tianity. has been regarded by the
church as the cornerstone Of the
faith" said Rev. Frank X Dough
erty, pastor Of Grace NJ. F. church,
Sunday morning in his Easter ser
mon on the subject The Resurrec-
ton Truth"
He emphasized the fact that If
ever the public should doubt the
resurrection OF Jesus ever happened.
the Christian faith would necessarily
come 20 an end If the authority
and influence OF Jesus Christ are
more widely and deeply felt today
it is because He is not dead and men
know that death has no dominion
over Him, and that the resurrection
was and is an abiding fact.
In speaking further he said;
Began New Relation.
The resurrection began a new and
living relation between God and the
races. and this relation is sustained
by Jesus, concerning whom the apos-
tolical thought was not so much
the Lord is raised but rather that
the Lord lives.
IF you have been haunted by the
dismal prophecies concerning his
tOrical criticism and scientific re-
search, and how they have injured
the faith, you may dismiss your
fears. for. instead Of injurying. they
have helped. They have made our
trust more reasonable and they have
freed it from innumerable obstacles.
"A minister is frequently asked
DO you believe in the resurrection
Of Christ? 1t is inconceivable how
one can preach and hear the voice
Of Christ and not believe IT,
1T is the only way Of accounting
for an all-embracing and stupendous
fact Without the resurrection the
last 20 centuries Of Christendom are
an ineXplicable travesty.
What was it that transformed
those peasant disciples from weak,
covering men into martyrs? Moth
ing other than the power Of Christ's
resurrection. What is il that sus-
tains Christendom today? The power
of the living Christ"
