A young married woman was told to put castor oil on a fern that was fading and she thoroughly squeezed the juice of an orange into the castor oil before she gave the dose to the poor fern.

When they were naming things somebody played a great joke on the women when he called those old head shhawls “fascinators.” A “fascinator” was a thiing that could make a goodlooking girl resemble something the cat dragged in. Any man who had to fight all the tough kids in the neighborhood because his mother made him wear curls when he went to school can sympathize with the poor poodle whose owner makes it wear a sweater so the other dogs will regard it as easy picking. * Mrs. I.

SOME TOWNS MIGRATE TO GAIN PROSPERITY.
When Snubbed by the Railroads Okfa. homa Settlers Move Over to the Tracks. RINGLING, Okla. Bvery little while a whole town moves Its Bocw tfcm In Oklahoma. Industrial conditions, the developing of new regions, the advance of the railroads to pipes* where there were untamed cattle and horses before have instilled the mov-fng-day spirit. A man from the little end practically unknown village of Staunton said the other day: “Well, we had a meetin* the other night and it ware the consensus of opinion that Staunton ought to move. She’ll never do any gdbd where she I* at. We can’t expect any railroads and it look* like they ain’t an oil well in ten miles of us. One of these day* all that is to be seen of Staunton will bo seen no more.” ■''just the day before this meeting the inhabitants of Staunton heard that the postoffice at the neighboring village of Healdton had been moved to John Ringling’s new town named New Healdton. Staunton is in the woods, far from where the train toots, aag for twenty years they have had io ambition to establish a thriving metropolis. But Healdton moved, and seemed to better itself. Cornish, once an outpost of civilization when Indians were bad and cowboys little better, also moved, and so did Hewitt, tor many years a prosperous country village in the Bayou country of Carter county. Nearly all the neighbors of Staunton moved and the indications are that a majority of those who moved prospered. At any rate they became citizens of ralroad towns where there were new blood and new energy and new ambition. There was a Walter* down on Beaver Creek. The railroad built a new Walters upon the hilL A fight between the towns ensued, grew bitter and more bitter. At last a compromise was effected and the railroad won. There was a Bottaford in the new country. The railroad built a new town near it and called it Temple and old Bottsford was abandoned. There are many more instances. Every time the Rock Island built a new line into that country It trespassed upon the aspirations of the people of prosperous country villages that had to be abandoned.
CUP OF COFFEE GIVEN TRAMP BRINGS $27,000.
Man, Once Down and Out, Reward* Girl Who Befriended Him. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.—Mrs. Matti* Hannum of Vincennes Is today digesting the almost unbelievable fact that interest on a cup of hot coffee presented by her to a tramp thirty years ago amounts to joat $27,000. At the time she gave the tramp the cup of coffee Mrs. Hannum was a servant on a farm. The tramp’s name was Marshall MoMurran, who, having ceased being * tramp, died at Swanville a short time ago. The will by which he left his entire holdings to the woman who had befriended him was contested by his half-brothers and sisters, but the Indiana Supreme Court held the instrument valid. McMurran, after a youth of wandering, died on May 10, 1918, leaving /a win’which had been made twentyfive years before. It read: M I do this 7th day of September, 1888, will to Mattle Draim, that poor servant girl who gave me a good bite to eat and a hot cup of coffee when I yw weak and feverish from hunger and near ready to drop and the auld man she worked for was cursing her for giving it to me and ordering me out of the yard, and I do win all 1 have at my death, all the money or property I have shall be hers.” Mattie Draim is now Mrs. Hrinnum.
SHEARS SAVE LIVES OF TWO.
Are Used by Pair Under Auto to Get Air.* PIERRE, 8. D. A pair of pocket shears, which accidently slipped from his pocket and within reach of his hand enabled A. F. Moore to save the life of his wife and himself when they were trapped under their automobile which overturned on a road near here. The upholstering of the car was pressed against their faces so that they were smothering, but by using the scissors Mr. Moore enabled his wife and himself to breathe until Janneys arrived and rescued them.
