Notes Along the Way

Bob" Scivally's name is men
toned frequently in the capital city.
The politicians are crediting Mr..
Scivally with having put up one OF
the best campaigns. You see his ad-
vertisemcnts wherever candidate
is advertised. His service as chair
man of district exemption board
No. 2, at Tulsa, has made wonder
full impression. His work as presi-
dent of the state association of
county commissioners has given him
a wide acquaintance. He is a farm
er fully equipped and peculiarly
adapted for an office in which farm
ers are most interested, and his
friends are confident he will be
chosen president of the state board
of agriculture.
Art Walker has a wide circle of
friends. AS soon as a resident OF
Ardmore speaks of his place of res
idence, he is asked, know Art
Walker?" and Mr.. Walker is going
to poll a tremendous vote. His selec-
ton as the Democratic nominee for
member of the state corporation
commission seems as certain as
sunrise.

The kidneys are the most .overworked
organs of the human body, and when they

One of the first warnings is pain or stiff
ness in the lower part of the back; highly
colored urine; loss of appetite; indiges-
ton; irritation, or even stone in the blad-
der. These symptoms indicate condition
that may lead to that dreaded and fatal
malady, Bright's disease, for which there
is said to be no cure.

treatment is necessary in kidney and blad-

Another optimist.

The optimistic man had been elected
from his room by the irate landlady.
Out he went into the street, his be-
longings sailing after him. The white,
binding snow whirled in singing
masses and the wintry wind shrieked

The optimistic man sat him on his
trunk to listen to the complaint of the
elements and to consider where he
should go. He recalled blistering
