There is very little travelling being
done between here ana Ardmore only
on the trains. Train service was
pretty badly crippled for several days
on account of washouts east of us.
Our school is progressing nicely,
with a very good attendance despite
the wintry weather.

DO YOU SUFFER
FROM BACKACHE /?

When your kidneys are weak and
torpid they do not properly perform
their functions; your back aches
and you do not feel like doing much
of anything. You are likely to be
despondent and to borrow trouble,
Just as if you hadn't enough al
ready. Don't be victim any LONGER.
The old reliable medicine, Hood S
Sarsaparilla, gives strength and
tone to the kidneys and builds ur
the whole system. Get it today.

WHY HAIR FALLS OUT

Dandruff causes a feverish irrita
tion of the scalp the hair roots
shrink, loosen and then the hair
comes out fast. TO stop falling hair
at once and rid the scalp of every
particle of Dandruff, get a 25-cent
bottle of Danderine at any drug
store, pour little in your hand and
rub well into the scalp After a
few applications all dandruff disap-
pears and the hair stops coming out.

Black Cats Overrun Island.

"The Island of Black Cats" is a
name applied to Chatham island in
the Pacific ocean, about 730 miles
west of the coast of Ecuador. 1t is
overrun with black cats; indeed, cats
of no other color are seen there. These
animals live in the crevices of the
lava foundation near the coast, and
subsist by catching fish and crabs, in
stead Of rats and mice.

The sound of a military rife bullet,
travelling at 1900 feet a second, is like
that of a long backsnake whip vio-

beats the sound, and If man struck
by one hears a cracking it is from
some other missile.

COL. HOUSE
WELL LRECE|VED
BY GERMANS
WHO EXPRESS REGRET AT TER
MlNATlON OF HIS VISIT - is
HIMSELF PLEASED WITH THE
RESULT OF MISSION.

Berlin, Jan. 31.-Colonel Edward
NJ. House, personal representative of
President Wilson, departed tonight
for Switzerland He appeared to be
pleased with the result of his visit
to Berlin. Gottlieb Won Jagow, secre-
tary of foreign affairs, whom the As
sociated Press correspondent saw for
few moments in the midst of a
busy day, said he was impressed with
Colonel Houses sympathetic manner
and charm and his friendly feeling
| for Germany, but excused himself
the Colonel was the bearer of a con-
fdental mission from the president,
DR.. Theobald Won Bethmann-Holl-
veg, German imperial chancellor, it
was learned, also enjoyed and appre-
ciated the visit and regretted that
the Colonel's brief stay did not afford
him opportunity to accept the invita-
ton of personal hospitality which
the chancellor and the foreign sec
retary had hoped to extend.
The final interview of Colonel
House, who received among others to-
day Deputy Heckscher, director Of
the Hamburg American Steamship
Line, was held with DIR. Alfred Zim
norman, the undersecretary of for
eign affairs. who lunched with the
American embassy, remaining in con
versation with Colonel House and Am
bassador Gerard until near o'clock
in the afternoon.
The presidents representative
thereafter closeted himself with the
ambassador, the two working almost
uninterruptedly until the Colonel's de-
parture at 8 o'clock in the evening
upon reports to be forwarded to Wash
ington. Secretary Winslow of the
embassy again accompanied the
House party across the Swiss from
tier
Colonel House will go to Paris and
London by way of Switzerland.
Colonel House will, it is believed,
convey to President Wilson nothing
startlingly new upon the German sit
uation and the attitude of the gov
ernment in its various branches, but
mass of detailed information work
ed into shape in his long discussions
with Mr. Gerard.
Will Make Personal Report.
In the same way it may be said
that Colonel House, upon whom inter
views with several of Germany's lead
ing statesmen left a most agreeable
impression, will report to the presi-
dent on the attitude these statesmen
have taken toward America,-an at
titude which has been described as
one of friendlness and a desire to
avoid any complications with the
United States so far as compatible
with Germanys vital interests and
internal harmony-and he will be
able to support and supplement Am
bassador Gerards reports by personal
declarations made with the foreknoW-
ledge that they will go direct to the
president.
1t is presumed that the German
leaders now have a clearer compre-
hension of the limits and intents of
President Wilson's policy, and partic.
llarly of the ideas he has for
working arrangement, narmonizing as
far as possible with the interests OF
oeutraIs and the two belligerent |
groups.

tain to be of great help to the Indians
he is not a drawing card. He will be
in Cleveland for a while. but on the
road in the American League Speaker
has never been an attraction, as is
Cobb or Walter Johnson, hence his
value to a club Is not as great as that
of either of the two stars mentioned.
Chief Bender, according to Manager
Moran, is going to be of lot of help to
the Phillies this year.
Bender has more stuff now than he
has had for several years. He is in
splendid condition. and 1 look for him
to add a lot of strength to my team
said the Philles' leader yesterday.
Bender worked in the batting prac-
tice, and it seemed that he had a lot
of stuff and his arm worked freely and
comes through for Moran. the Phillies
will be better fortified with pitchers
than they have been for some time.
There is no end of criticism of the
Cincinnati club in the public prints be-
cause it has signed Hal Chase. Those
interested in the welfare of the game
think the former Chicago first base
never have been allowed to re-enter Or
ganized base ball.
Hermann admits he was like a
drowning man, grabbing at a straw.
when he signed Chase. for the first
baseman he had relied on. after
breaking his arm, seemed unable to
throw. and as Chase was available he
was willing to overlook his past and
give him another chance.
AS yet Chase has not been heard
from, and 1t is said he does not know
just where he stands. But when he
gets the information from Sinclair, the
former Fed boss, that he belongs to
Cincinnati he undoubtedly will hurry
| to that town and join the team.
Indications are that the weather for
the opening of the base ball season
tomorrow will be ideal the country
over. 1t seems that spring has come
at last, and that there is going to be
a long stretch Of good weather.
Hughey Jennings believes his team
has more to fear from the White Box

pick the White Sox.

ried his team to victory by the score of
