Phone 471. 1 —- I i Once-a-Week Polish Keeps Teeth Stainless T’hy do eo many use pumice stone, aehes, charcoal, or other dangerous substance, to remove the unsightly yellowish or blackish tinge from the teeth? Simply because they have never been able to find any tooth powder,paste or liquid that would do the work. The reason tooth stains are so difficult to remove is that they are covered with a slimy film, or “plaque,” which the usual dentifrices cannot penetrate or dissolve. The problem of removing these obstinate films has finally been solved by a well-known dentist, who has originated what he calls “Once-a-Week Tooth Polish.” This polish not only removes all discoloration easily and quickly, but without the least injury to erylmel or gums —qualities not found in any other preparation in the market. Once-a-Week Tooth Polish, obtainable at any druggist’s, is not intended as a substitute for dentifrices, but to be used in ad- , dition to them —once a week, as the name implies. It should be used by children, as well as adults, as a preventive of stains, tartar, decay, germa and pyorrhea. - •

TEXAS TOWN OF 6,000 PEOPLE WITHOUT A NAME— Too Busy Drilling for Oil to Name a New Town. Burkburnett, Tex., July 24. — (Special to Daily Democrat)—Of the many startling and strange transformations wrought by the magiea 1 wand c.f oil, none is perhaps more remarkable than that which has taken place during the last six weeks upon the open prairie about three miles northwest of Burkburnett. In the midst of derricks that are set over drilling and producing wells, a town of 6,000 population has sprung up during the I time that hats elapsed since Ithjj bi'iii|ing in of the Burk-Wag-goner well. This town has not yet been named, although it already has two banks, hotel, stores, numerous j restaurants and various other enterprises that go to make up a thriving? pulsing community. The inhabitants of the town say that they are too busy to give any thought to naming i i/t. Their mail for the most part comes addressed to them at Burk|burnett. It is usually referred to as I “new town,” and in the absence* of ! any formal action in the matter on the part of the citizens themselves? it may be given that name by the postofflee department. It is a hurlyburly sort of a place, with the gari nish evidence of newness sticking out from every angle. MANY MINES DESTROYED The destroyed mines of France produced 20,000,000 metric tons, (of 2,205 pounds), in 1913, and at least ; two-thirds of the destruction by the Germans was systematic and wanton, without military necessity. But even this enormous loss of coal-pro-ducing capacity represented only 3 per cent, of the total production of Europe in 1913, 730.000,000 metric tons, so has a relatively small effect on European coal supplies as a whole; there are other greater factors in the deficiency of production. The shortage of fuel that prevailed during the war continues and there is probability of a still more serious deficiency unless the United States can come to the rescue by an extensive program of exporting. While there was virtually no destruction of the Belgian coal mines, of which the Germans evidently expected to retain possession; that . Silesian, Polish and the Bohemian mining districts have been, and,still! are, affected by the military fighting | and undoubtedly their coal produc11Ion will suffer, bnt mdkt important iof all effects on production in EuroIpe is that of the general unrest of | labor and changes in labor conditions | which have brought about serious lessening of coal production. The cost of production is from 75 to 150 per cent, greater than in 1913 in the I various countries, due to tremendous 1 increases in labor and material. In | most countries the wages of miners j have more than doubled. The miners' are demanding and undoubtedly will ■ receive betterment of living condi-j lions, which the miners claimed were . very bad in many mining towns, j These factors go to make increasing cots of fuel, which in turn will make ■ increasing cost of transportation and; manufacturing, also cause readjust-' ments in commercial conpetitioir be- ’ tween different countries.

THE WORLD’S HARDEST WORK it v i _ c tatoi IliK zLfflß i 7—Ma Ml IJk I TZFwrajy. I I w w By MMMt 1 Emma 1 Jilt *How Indiana' : lhwks Stood fhejflcidTest Don’t buy a weakling in a Motor Truck. Buy one that can do the world’s toughest truck work which is: 1 — Western Ore Hauling 3—Mountain Hauling 2— Oil-Field Work 4 —Southern Lumber Hauling In the western ore fields the only truck that consistently for years has stood up and outstripped trucks costing SI,OOO to $2,000 more and stood the gaff like the steel giant it is, is the Indiana Truck. The hardest oil-field work in the world is that in the Wyoming field, some of which is without any roads at all. The Indiana stands up and does work that no other truck will do. It is easily champion in the Wyoming oil-fields. In the Tulsa field, in the Ranger field, which are more difficult for trucks than any European battle-ground, the Indianas have stood the test where others failed utterly. For seven years, after every other track had failed to conquer the wild rocky mountain roads between Campbellsville and Columbia, Ky., two Indiana Trucks have been hauling freight, mail and passengers at an excellent profit to their owners. Due to the fierceness of the task, no other truck was ever able to do the work. So you see the World's Hardest Truck Work is dene by Indiana Trucks because we build them over-size in every part and dimension, a thing this organization did from the day it built its first truck, which is running today. Old Indiana Trucks, which We have traced, have run 100,000 miles and over and are still at work. If Indiana 1CO, ( ?;JO Mile Ti ucks will do the world’s toughest haulingwork, they wilt do yours. Indiana Sales are going ahead with great rapidity, 76% increase the past month. Indianas are sold at less cost to you than trucks they outstripped in the work outlined above.
