Observation-Disclosures
Women of Ardmore
are Most Interested
In the Gas Rate
Why do we say that women of Ardmore are most
interested in the gas rate for this city?
Because, while men are taking the more active part
the public discussion of the gas rate, and they are
largely interested in using the gas and paying the bills
yet, the of gas is principally household use and
it's cost is mainly important in the home.
Our mothers and wives and sisters make the home
and govern it. They either use most of the gas in
Ardmore themselves they govern its The cost
of gas homes the larger part of the total cost OF
gas to citizens of Ardmore And what affects the cost
of keeping up the home is of direct concern to
women, who are the home makers, than to men.
We invite the interest of the women of ArdmOre in
the gas rate question because you most vitality
concerned in the subject of its fair settlement.
The real question at stake in this rate matter is
Are we gong TO nave natural gas IN Cne nome lOf
cooking, water heating, and for heating that cold
corner room, for many years to come-or, Are we
going to have it only few years more for house heat
ing, cooking, ETC.? s..
Natural gas is the cleanest, most convenient and
highest heat value fuel to be found earth When it
is gone it cannot be replaced by more natural gas
There is a way to make natural gas last many
years in ArdmOre That way is to fix price that
makes it worth conserving. The demand must be
reduced in order that the supply may be made to meet
it, The demand can be reduced only by stopping waste
in the home
Many of our customers have recently told us how
they have cut down their gas bills without sacrificing
comfort. They have begun to stop wasting gas.
You too cut down your gas bills in this way.
We shall be in position to show you how to use
less gas and still get the best results.
Watch the progress of the gas rate discussion. 1t
is to your interest that the gas rate be not lowered
We shall try to show you why.

HEALTH THE KEYNOTE TO
BEAUTY

Beauty means so much to women
power, social triumph, admiration and
love. Beauty implies good health.
who ever saw a woman racked with
pain, struggling with weakness or
disease, who could be called beautiful?
The woman of today in this high
strung, nervous age is continually over
doing. with the result that ills pc
culiar to her sex develop which. I'M
checked, will ruin all chances for her
happiness. The natural restorative for
such ailments is Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound. which for more
than forty years has been recognized
as a standard remedy for women's ills.
and has done much to relieve pain and
restore good health to women.-Adv.

A NEW EQUALIZATION
FARM ARITHMETIC

In letter to Secretary Wallace a
Des Moines leather manufacturer
says that for years farmers have
been getting SO or $3.50 for horse
hide and were able to buy q pair Of
horsehide gloves for $50. Today
if they take the trouble to skin a
horse and send the hide to market
they get 81 and have to pay $3.50
for the same gloves.
In other words where the farmers
formerly got two pairs of gloves or
better for a horsehide, he now gets
only one pair of gloves for three
horsehides, which seems to be con-
siderable of horse on the farmer,
and no gloves.
