Boost the Benevolent Society.

There are good many people in
Ardmore that need assistance and 1t
appears that there should be at least
five hundred people in Ardmore who
should give from ten cents to ten dol
lars per month. Instead Of giving to
people on the street, let us all con
tribute to the Benevolent Society and
give them something to work with.
1t is a pleasure to them to do the
work, but they do not feel like, nor
should they do the work, and furnish
the money. Now let us all join the
Benevolent Society. This is a good
cause. You are ablebodied and can
well afford to contribute a dollar or
two. 1t takes as much time to go
around begging the money as it would
take to get out and earn it. Send
your money in to Mrs. Kahn or Mrs.
Curtis. This is a matter that should
not need a lot of begging and coax
ing. Send your money in and do it
now, and help these people who are
spending their time in the interest of
those less fortunate than we.

DEAD BODY OF
WAN |SF0UND
IN HIS BUGGY
OFFICERS BELIEVE NAT scHLEG-
EL WAS MURDERED IN CUSHING
AND LATER HIS BODY WAS
PLACED IN BUGGY.

Cushing, Okla, March l4.-With a
bullet hole through the chest, the dead
body of Nat Schlegel was found in an
upright position in a buggy by the side
of the road, three miles northwest OF
Cushing Tuesday morning. The cor
oner's jury returned verdict Tuesday
afternoon averring that Schlegel came
to his death at the hands OF party
unknown to the jury.
Schlogel was one Of the most widely
known farmers around Cushing, and
small town near here bears his name
The Schlegel farm, about seven miles
northwest of Gushing, is one of the
finest in the community.
Monday Schlegel drove a two-horse
buggy into Cushing and during the af-
tcrnoon was seen on the streets by
many persons acquainted with him.
Roy Babcock, driver Of 4 delivery wag-
on for the c. r. Rusk Feed and Coal
Company, told the coroner's jury that
he talked with Schlegel about . o'clock
Monday afternoon. "Schlegel asked me
to take him in the delivery wagon to
a distant part OF town. said Babcock,
stating that he refused to comply with
the request.
Schlegel started to walk the distance
and was joined by another man, and
that was the last seen of him by ac-
quantances. Officers believe that
Schlegel was murdered and robbed on
Monday night the body placed in the
buggy Schlegel had driven to town and
the team driven to the place where it
was found Tuesday morning. There
was only a little blood in the bottom
of the buggy, in which the body was
found and the curtains were up on
both sides of the buggy. On the right
rear wheel blood stains were found.
No weapon was found in the buggy.
When Schlegel did not return home
Tuesday morning, Mrs. Schlegel CON
cluded that he had gone to Oklahoma
City or Tulsa and had left his team in
livery stable. A farmland started
to Gushing to look for the team, and
found it standing unhitched by the
roadside.
The coroner's jury was composed Of
George Michels, w, p. Davis, S. NJ
Treese S. R. Spatton j. T. Sephart and
John Hughes.

POLLOCK PROVED FRIENDSHIP.
Man Who Persuaded Richards TO
Accent income Of 5000 a Day.

Accept Income OF SZ,CUU Day
The story is told here of how Z.
T. Richards of McAlester became the
owner of property at Healdton which
is now paying him $1,000 a day. Mr.
Richards lived at McAlester and had
planned to take his allotments near
the coal fields of that town. The
property upon which he owned I'M
provements and which he intended to
allot was segregated by the federal
government as mineral lands and
could not be allotted by individual
citizens. Mr.. Richards was disc5ur-
aged as the result, and while work
ing in the coal mines near his native
town he was approached by I. }.
Pollock, an old friend of his from
Ardmore, who told him of the lands
in the western part of Carter county
upon which he, Pollock, owned i'm
provements, and Richards was offered
these lands for allotment purposes.
Mr.. Richards did not like the idea,
but insisted that he would take other
lands in the Choctaw nation nearer
his home. Mr.. Pollock pressed his
claim in favor of the Healdton lands,
and Mr.. Richards finally agreed TO
take them. He and his family now
have approximately 76O acres in the
field and the last big well drilled in
at Healdton was on the Clifton Rich
ards farm in section 1888, which, in
the 1,10O-foot sand, is making 1900
barrels.
Mr.. Richards and his family have
an income from their holdings of al
most $4,000 a day.

Save you hair! Make it thick,
waVy and beautiful
try this!

Thin, brittle, cOlorless and scraggy
hair is mute evidence of a neglected
scalp; of dandruff,- that awful scurf,
There is nothing so destructive to
the hair as dandruff. 1t robs the hair

life; eventually producing a feverish-
ness and itching of the scalp, which
if not remedied causes the hair roots
to shink, loosen and die-then the
hair falls out fast. A little Danderine
cnight-now-any time-will surely
save your hair.
Get a 25-cent bottr, OF Knowlton's
Danderine from any drug store or
toilet counter, and after the first ap-
plication your hair will take on that
life, lustre and luxuriance which is
so beautiful. 1t will become wavy
and fluffy and have the appearance of
abundance, an incompatible gloss and
softness. but what will please you
most will be after just few weeks
use. when you will actually see lot
of fine, downy hair-new hair-grov-
ing all over the scalp.
