San Jose, Caliiornia's garden spot, is in a fearful state of demoli tion and sunering as well as many smaller towns.

Further than hat, he did not know just what he company would do. Judging from Mr. Carey's con- versatioiClthere seems to be strong possibility that meters will be used shortly. If so the plan will be that the consumer is to pay or the meter, but if his gas bill is paid before the 10th of each month a reduction of 10 per cent will be made on the bill. This the company figures will pay for the cost of the meter.

The company will put in the meter system, simply to protect the gas supply. They argue that will not make their income larg- er.but merely save their gas supply. There is no boubt but that a flat rate is a drain on the gas, as, people are not careful in regard to how they burn it. A positive statement in the use ot meters will probably be given out by Mr. Carey, in a short time.

The double auartette Jm sang so well that we clapped them back and to the tune of Lone Fish Ball they responded with: "There is a class of Seniors brave, But long orations make them grave; Commencement day they all do fear, For now the time is drawing near. "The Junior class have won the cup, And think that they must cheer us up, But when the next field meet is here We'll win the honors, you never fear. "The members of the Freshman class, Do all the teachers most harass, In parties now they all persist, But for good grades they do insist. "But we are of the Sophomore, The very best of all the four, If proof for this you want to know The teacher's they will tell you so," Friday Evening News. WAR ON DANDEUNES Iola has declared war on the dan delines.

An ordinance has been passed making any person subject to arrest and fine, who will permit dandeline to grow on their premises. The mayor declares that the law will be enforced to the letter.

Thursday marked a change in the National Bank of commerce, of this city. Geo. Hunley and Scott Eiliott having purchased the stock held by Dr. Woods, of -Kansas City, W. S.

Fallis, of this city, J. Chandler, of Wichita, and J. S. Bunyan, of Medicine Lodge. The stock of the National Bank of Commerce is now held entirely by home people with the exception of one share, which is represented by Jesse Foster as executor of the estate of Aaron Besiell.

The bank under the new arange-ment will be unusually strong. Mr. Hunley and Mr. Elliott are both well known here, and their sound business ability and conservative business methods have never been questioned. We are glad that the Bank is now controlled by home people and it will doubtless enjoy a good business, as it is one of the strongest banking institutions in the county.

Mr. Fallis, who will retire, we are glad to say will not for the present leave Garnett. Mr. Fallis is interested in the gas plant here, and may remain here. Garnett would lose, by Mr.

Fallis, one of its most public spirited and generous citizen and for that reason it is hoped he will remain. Miss Alice Johnson will still be with the bank. WELSH-GRAHAM The home of Mr. and Mrs. I.

HOW DO YOU ACCOUNT FOR IT? Here's a little problem in simple multiplication and division which would indicate that the old adage, Figures never lie," does not hold good. Two women sold their hens, sixty in all, to the poultry man. Each had thrity. The first got $1 for two, and the second received $2 tor three. Therefore they were paid $2 for every five, or 40 cents apiece.

This multi plied by the sum total sold would brinsr $24.00. All very well and correct. take it this way The hist received $1 tor two, or $15. The second received $1 for three or $10. $15 plus $10 equals $25.

Which answer is right? Western Spirit. take them. Every year for thirty years we ve ocsn increasing the sales of Scott's Emulsion. Why 7 Because It has always been better than any substitute for it. Send for free sample OCOTT Ct Q0V7NC Chemists 403-413 Pearl Cirsst, flew Ycrtl John Carr and COs.
