Farmers Bloody Deed.

Daniel Okane, a farmer living
near Lawton, Okla, killed seven
members of his family and then
took his own life, following a
quarrel with his aged father,
James Okane. The bodies of the
murdered members of the family
were discovered by negro farm
hand. Okane was still alive but
died some hours later. The
strained relations between the
father and son are believed to
have driven the latter temporari-
ly insane.
The dead are Mrs. Daniel
Okane, the five Okane children,
Lewis, aged Is; Daniel, 8 years
old; Margaret z years old; Lii
liam, 5 years old; baby, Robert;
the aged father, James Okane,
rs years old, and the murderer
and suicide, Daniel Okane, aged
48.
The children's heads had been
crushed with a hammer and the
threats of the four elder ones
were slashed with razor. They
were found dead in bed. Mrs.
Okane's head had been crushed
with a hammer and she also had
been shot. The elder Okane,
Daniel Okane and the baby, Rob-
ert, all had bullet wounds
through their heads.
A bloody hammer, a razor and
a revolver were found in the
house, along with a basin con-
tanning crimson water in which
the slayer had washed his hands.
Okane formerly was employed
by the government to care for
the cattle of Apache prisoners of
war.

MUST TAKE TIME TO REST
Development Of Beauty Depends a
Great Deal on That and on Ones
Environment.

1t cannot be impressed upon us too
often that harmony of surroundings
is absolutely necessary to the devel-
opment of beauty. 1t depends on the
soul quality for its inspiration and
growth. The soul quality dies unless
nurtured by such surroundings as are
pleasing.
Each personality must choose the col
ors and shades that are most soothing.
Every woman cannot have her home
decorated just as she wishes. But ev-
cry woman can have some n corner
that is her own that is decorated in
the colors and with the things (they
may be very simple and inexpensive)
that appeal to her. When she is tired
let hsr go to this corner and find rest
there reading her favorite authors,
looking at her favorite pictures, sew
ing, %orocheting Or sitting and thinking.
II it is impossible for such a corner
to be had, surely there is some spot
Of tho town or city, some library, mu-
scum, church, park, some place where
she can find rest in the picture that
surrounds her.
Luxury. when you think Of it, is not
of necessity attractive. So often It is
I'm bad taste that the Joy comes often
in being able not to have to indulge
in It.
Most women are much more attrac-
tive at home. This is because in the
setting Of the things they love, which
are part of their personalities. they
are In repose. The woman who is
beautiful under the glare of the sun
in all sorts of places is indeed fortu'
nate!

GOOD REPORT
Doctor Proved Value Of Postum.

count, with it's valued companion
Grape-Nuts, one of the daily blessings.
Coffee was banished from my own

contains the subtle, poisonous drug,

that 1t is properly made according to
directions. then it has a clear, seal.
brown color and a rich, snappy taste,
as well as health giving qualities.
The above letter, received over ten
years ago, l. fully confirmed by a re-
cent letter from the doctor, in which
he says:
1T is a pleasure to render a good
report covering a product OF which
am SO enthusiastic a friend.
Il am using in my home your Pos

Power Of L%Iahtenlna.

Lightning has been proved to have
struck a building with a force equal
to more than IL, OOO-horse power. A
single horse power, in mechanical cal
culation, is equivalent to raising a
weight of $4,000 pounds one foot in
a minute. The force of lightning,
therefore, has been proved to be equal
to the raising of 384,OO0,O0 pounds
one foot in a minute. This is equal
to the united power of 10 of our larg-
est steamers, having collectively "a
engines of 50O-horse power each. The
velocity of electricity is so great that
it would travel around the world eight
times in a second.
