ern district at Tulsa, has received i
letter from Harry II. Rogers, secre-
tary OF the board. in which was en-
closed letter OF appreciation from

that the. state of Oklahoma is to be
congratulated upon the splendid dis
trict boards selected by the presi-
dent and, without rejecting upon
the work done by the other two
boards, for their work was splendid,
permit me to say that board No. ,
for the eastern district deserves the
blue ribbon. Your record has not
been equalled in the state and | dare
say i'll the United States. | make
this statement without reservation
and YOU may use the same in any
manner you see fit. 1t should be a
matter OF pride to every Oklahoman
to learn of the splendid patriotism
shown by our citizenship because
our Stacker list will be unusually low
and we have no single case of re-
sistance OF the selectiye service law"

DON'T CALL YOUR
WIFE A HUN

Husbands who resort to pet name,
when addressing their wives should
steer clear OF any contraction OF
honey" that when spoken sound.
as "Hun.'
Nellie O'Kelley has filed suit in
the district court against her hus-
band, Raymond O'Kelley. for di-
yorce. She alleges in her petition
that they were married on Lincoln
birthday, 1910, in Kentucky. and
that he has been guilty OF extreme
and repeated cruelty in that, as the
petition recites:
For many years after their mar
rlage his love was constant and en-
during, always clubbing her with the
attectionate and soothing term OF
hun, a contraction of honey" but
when the Huns OF Germany began
their ruthless warfare against Amer
lcan liberty and American freedom.
and the wholesale murder of Amer
lcan citizens and the destruction of
American property the term at once
became so repulSiye that she could
no longe rendure it, because of the
hldeous and unparalleled debauch-
cry OF humanity by the German
Huns, constantly suggesting to her
mind a scene OF butchery and blood
and tears, but despite her gentle ef-
forts to persuade him from the use
OF that term, which had become an
epithet OF opprobrium instead of a
balm for 4 lonely heart, he persisted
in calling her "hun,' apparently tax
ing delight in so dubbing her
solely for the purpose OF aggraya-
.ion.'
She alleges in her petition that
hey have on child, four years OF age.
She asks for a divorce, that she be
given the custody of their minor
child and that she be restored her
maiden name, that Of Nellie Wilson.

Weak, Thin People
Made Strong and Fat

Weak, thin people-men or
women-are nearly always nervou.
wrecks thus conclusively proving
that thinness, weakness, debility
and neurasthenia are almost inya-
riably due to nerve starvation.
Feed your nerves and all these
symtoms due to nerve starvation
will disappear.
Eminent specialists state that the
best nerve food is an organic phos-
phate known among druggists as
Bltro- Phosphate, tive-grain tab
let of which should be taken Will
each meal. Being genuine nerve
builder and not 4 stimulant OF
habit forming drug, Bitro-Phos-
phate can be safely taken by the
weakest and most delivate sufferer,
and the results following its use
are often simply astonishing.
Weak, tired people regain
strength and vigor; thinness and
angularity give way to plumpness
and curves, sleep returns to the
sleepless, confidence and cheerful
ness replace debility and gloom, dull
eyes become bright, and pale, sunk
en- cheeks regain the pink glow of
health. Bitro-Phosphate, the use of
which is inexpensive, also wonder
fully promotes the assimilation of
food, so much SO that many people
report marked gains of weight in a
few weeks.
CAUTION: - Although Bitro-
Phosphate is unsurpassed for re-
lieving nervousness, sleeplessness
and general weakness, it should not
owing to its remarkable fesh-grow-
ing properties, be used by anyone
who does not desire to put on flesh

NEWS FROM THE WAR
s. INFLUENCE ON MARKET
Military and Political Develop
ments Abroad Contribute to Gen
eral Heaviness in Special Issues.

NEW YORK. October 5-Military
and political developments in the east
ern area of the war zone, coupled with
the further successes of the allied
forces along the western front, con-
stituted the governing influences of
the week in the securities market, in
1uslng general heaviness to munition
and ordnance shares.
There was a contrary movement OF
considerable proportions in shippings,
motors. oils and half a score of less
distinctive issues which are expected
to benefit by cessation of hostilities.
Many other stocks recently extreme
ly inactive participated in the adj
vance, notably utilities of the gas and
electric power variety and fractions,
although the movement in those di-
visions could hardly be said to bear
any relation to latest war conditions.
Show Strength, Then Recede.
Transportations were disappointing,
falling back after an early show of
strength, regardless of the publica-
tion of many additional favorable
statements of earnings by the Inter-
STATE commerce Com mission.
The course of United States Steel,
which fiuctuated in something like a
four point radius, was narrowly
watched by traders, who regarded that
issue as the barometer of general
market conditions.
Steel contributed from 25 to 33 per
cent to the moderately large daily
turnover, it's nearest rival in point
of activity being Marine preferred.

Local money rates held at the long

Enormous Credits, Due to Loan.
The enormous credit demands re-
sulting from the liberty loan drive
were reflected in the weekly bank
statement, actual loans and discounts
expanding by slightly more than
$3.50. 100000. and actual excess re-
serves showing a Shrinkage of about
S1OO00,OG0. leaving total excess re-
serves at the low level OF Sc, 700. 900.
Bonds as a whole were unaffected
by the moderate unsettlement in the
stock market, liberty issues being
again extremely active and decidedly
stronger for the most part. Total
