the kidneys should have more attention

amount of work in removing the poisons
and waste matter from the system by
filtering the blood.
The kidneys should receive some a.
sistance when needed. We take less e1-
ercise, drink less water and often eat
more rich, heavy food, thereby forcing
the kidneys to do more work than nature
intended. Evidence of kidney trouble,
such as lame back, annoying bladder
troubles, smarting or burning, brick
dust or sediment, sallow complexion
rheumatism, maybe weak or irregular
heart action, warns you that your kid.

more serious trouble.
An ideal herbal compound that has had
most remarkable success as kidney and
bladder remedy is DR.. Kilmer's Swamp,
Root. There is nothing else like it. IT.

OF FILING OF CUSTER
Mccullough Continues to Per-

No word was received yesterday by
Sheriff william Mccullough with ref

against him, which are expected TO be
flied this week by Attorney-General
S. p. Freezing.
Transcripts of the testimony taken
in the attorney generals recent In

him last week, and it is practically
certain that the necessary steps will
be taken this week. Freezing went
so far yesterday as to state to The
World correspondent in Oklahoma
City that the custer would be insti-
tuted in the supreme court.
In the meantime, the office or
Sheriff Mccullough continues TO
grind out its regular duties without
heed to the threatening storm of legal
action. Sheriff Mccullough has
nD.ning to say about the matter ex-
cept that he is open for investigation
at any and all times.

MOTHER BACK FOR
DESERTED BABIES
Mrs. Ruth Nolen Returns in
Penitent Mood for Children
She Left Here.

Penitent and fearful, Mrs. Ruth
Nolen ventured into the office of HUI
name Agent A. NJ. Welch yesterday
afternoon TO plead for the return or
her two baby children, whom she de-
serted some time ago while residing
at a local hotel After a lengthy ses-
sion. Mrs. Nolen was given a permit
10 reclaim her children from the De-
tention home.
The children are Mildred, aged 3.
and Bonnie Belle. aged l year, and
are much better trained than the or
binary children who come under the
care of Mr.. Welch.
They were found deserted at the
CAPITAL hotel more than month ago,
and have been in the care of the De-
tention home since that time. Mrs.
Nolen had gone to Drumright after
leaving her babies and had found em-
ployment there.
Overcome by remorse and longing
to see her beautiful children, Mrs.
Nolen telcphoned Humane Agent
Welch Saturday that she was coming
back for them. A warrant already
had been sworn out, charging the
mother with desertion, an offense
punishable by several years in the
penitentiary. :,
No legal recourse will be taken II
Mrs. Noien's present attitude is borne
out by her future actions.

SELLING IMAGINATION.

a great deal OF misunderstanding
and condemnation has been heaped
upon the spcculator since his activi-
ties have become such a problem In
our national life. Time was when our
farmer friends grumbled considerably
at the aggrcssions Of the speculator.
but the moment one OF them got
money enough ahead he wanted to
go up on exchange and become a
specuator himself. what we wanted
TO say Is. in the first place, that al
most every man would bc n speculator
II he had the chance, his desires vary
ing only with his financial ability, and
second that every speculator is not
necessarily a rascal nor an oppressor.
lie simply wants to make all the
money he can by his wits, which Is
n falling common to 80 per cent Of
humanity. The chief grievance against
the speculator is that ne makes money
by his wits while we have to labor
for the same result, and usually his
rewards are greater than ours. As a
matter Of principle we have no right
to have a grievance against the specu-
lator.
But all Spectators are not good.
and the training and information they
must have opens the way for them TO
put over dishonest deals to the great
damage OF honest folks The offense
of the speculator lies largely in his
capacity for lending false values to
the finished product on occasion.
When it suits his purpose for prices
to be higher, he knows how to boost
them, and when 1t is desirable that
they be lower he Is an expert at de-
pressing them. Above all, however,
he is II psychologist. lie depends on
the rank and file OF the people to ac-
cumplish what he wants and he con
trolls them by mental suggestion. 1t
is not the speculator 80 often as II is
the common people that do things we
complain Of The people do what he
wants them to do and he stands ready
to profit by their folly. When the
people are given a hint that some ar
ticle is going to he scarce, they com
mence TO hoard II and produce a mar
ket rise. When bread threatens to be-
come scarce they hoard flour, not
wheat, and then wheat prices go up.
The price OF wheat, Of flour and of
bread which has risen so enormously
was largely due 10 the panicky house
holders who rushed to the stores to
buy flour to be boarded.
Most of ALL tho, the speculator's
business Is perilous one and more
people are wrecked in trying the game
than those who profit. Whether he
be an honest man or not, the specu-
lator's business Is to buy and sell
Imagination, and Imagination is an
elusive and unreliable commodity. The
farmer and the miller trade in real
values, but the speculator may handle
millions of dollars worth of trade
without ever even seeing a grain of
wheat. AS long as he plays the game
fair he might as well be left alone TO
amuse himself on the get-rich-quick
plan. but when he gets to depressing
the price Of wheat 10 the man who has
wheat to sell and raising IL to the man
who must buy flour. he becomes
public menace and should be given a
long rest in the penitentiary.
