sell you a Studebaker”
When your dealer tello you that you know
he’s honest.
He may have cheaper wagons in stock, but he
knows the Studebaker is the best.
And so do you.
He wants to give such good wagon value
that you will come back and demand a buggy
made by the same people.
Studebakcrs have been building wagons for sixty
years and they have won the confidence of dealer and
farmer by building—not the cheapest—but the best
wagons.
Whether you live in city, town or country, there s
a Studebaker to fit your needs. Farm wagons, trucks,
business and delivery wagons, surreys, buggies and
runabouts, with harness for each of the same high
quality as Studebaker vehicles.

But no more of the big ship-
ments. Oklahoma is placed in
position to stop the liquor traffic,
so far as dealers are concerned.
In the case of individual ship-
ments, such will continue. We
have a state law which kindly
permits a person to have one
gallon of liquor at his home, and
one quart in his office, for medic-
inal purposes, of course. How-
ever, the majority still maintains
that liquor for medicinal purposes
should be used before sickness,
and not hazard the general
health by waiting too long before
taking.
The law seems all right. The
matter of enforcement may be
the problem. Liquor laws never
have been enforced thoroughly.
The time has now arrived to test
the officers whose business it is
to enforce the law.—Oklahoma

A DRY ADMINISTRATION.
No Wine Will Sparkle on the White
House Table for Four Years.
Washington, March 10.—The
Wilson administration will be
“dry.” This expression is used
entirely in a sense that appeals
to the inner man of the nation
and not necessarily to those who
look for stereotyped methods of
government. It became known
that President Wilson and his
family are averse to the use of
liquor or wine in any form. In-
toxicating liquors will have no
place in the White House during
the next four years unless the
president’s views undergo a sharp
change.
Secretary of State Bryan, as is
well known, has been a prohibi-
tion advocate for many years. On
one occasion Mr. Bryan would
have made it a national issue and
it was due to his efforts that the
prohibition legislation was put
into effect. It is well known that
Speaker Clark is a teetotaler and
has been for many years. The
fact that a large proportion of
Democratic majority in the sen-
ate and house is from the South,
where prohibition is general,
makes certain the fact that there
will be little wine and less was-
sail than has been known in
Washington for many years.
Thanks.
We hereby acknowledge re-
ceipt of check for $30 from
Messrs. C. B. Joiner and F. Hoff,
for which they have the thanks

RUPTURE EXPERT HERE
Seeley, Who Fitted Czar of Russia,
Called to Bonham
F. H. Seeley, of Chicago and
Philadelphia, the noted truss ex-
pert, will be at the Alexander
hotel and will remain in Bonham
Friday only, March 21st. Mr.
Seeley says: “The Spermatic
Shield Truss as now used and ap-
proved by the United States gov-
ernment will not only retain any
case of rupture perfectly, afford-
ing immediate and complete re-
lief, but closes the opening in ten
days on the average case. This
instrument received the only
award in England and in Spain,
producing results without sur-
gery, harmful injections, treat-
ments or prescriptions.” Mr.
Seeley has documents from the
United States government, Wash-
ington, D. C., for inspection. All
charity cases without charge, or
if any interested call he will be
glad to show the truss without
charge, or fit them if desired.
Any one ruptured should remem-
ber the date and take advantage
of this opportunity.
I firmly believe I have more
trouble with my teeth than any
man of my age, weight and gen-
eral social standing ever born
and reared in the state of Texas.
I never had a tooth extracted
in my life but what my entire
family became involved in the
operation sooner or later, and
during the three years in which
I shed my milk teeth it was noth-
ing uncommon for all of my rela-
tives within ten miles of our
house to officiate on these tooth
lifting occasions. There is noth-
ing more pathetic than to see fif-
teen hundred pounds of near rel-
ative holding a thirty pound boy
on his back while his mother
pulls his loose tooth with a cotton
string. The only way I had to
protect my loose teeth against my
folks when I was a small boy was
to out-run them. I have had my
brothers and sisters chase me un-
til my tongue lolled out of my
head trying to capture me, dead
or alive, that they might drag
me to mother and have the pleas-
ure of seeing her yank out a
tooth with a No. 8 sewing thread.
The last piece of paternal den-
tistry ever performed on my
teeth came about in a purely ac-
cidental way on my part, and is
perfectly green in my memory
to this good day. I was at the
breakfast table and it had been
about three weeks since my
folks had had the pleasure of
pulling one of my teeth; they
were becoming impatient over
the long wait, and when fhey
discovered I had another loose
one there was great joy in the
family. They made a rush for
me, but I was too quick for them
and got out of the house before

they could lay their hands on me
and ran for the brush with my
brothers and sisters strung out
after me. I had run only a short
distance when ray tooth fell out.
When it dropped out a happy
thought struck me—I would re-
turn to the house with my pur-
suers and fool them all when
mother should attempt to pull a
tooth that had already been
“pulled.” Mother seemed to be
greatly surprised, when they in-
formed her that I had decided to
et her extract the tooth without
the usual struggle. When I laid
down on the floor and told moth-
er to get her thread she bragged
on me, said I was the bravest
ittle man that ever lived. When
the string had been brought I
opened my mouth and with a
wild, joyous laugh told her to
pull the tooth. She saw at a
glance what had caused me to
submit so tamely and told my
brothers and sisters to take hold
of me and she would see if I had
any more teeth that were getting
loose. They piled on me five deep
while I bit, fought and screamed
with all my might, but in spite
of all I could do they succeeded
in finding three more loose teeth
and proceeded to jerk them out.
I thought after I had gotten to
be a grown man, with a bald
head and a family of my own,
that my folks, and especially the
public, would take no further in
terest in my teeth and I could do
what I pleased with them, but I
was mistaken. The first time I
had the toothache after I was
married I heard my wife’s moth
er, at whose house we were liv-
ing, tell my wife in a tone of
yoice distinctly heard by me that
I had to do one of three things,
quit bawling like a cow, have
that tooth pulled or leave the
place; she said she didn’t propose
to stay awake another night
my account.
I have on at least a dozen
casions, after suffering all night
with an aching tooth, kissed my
wife and children goodbye anc
told them not to grieve if I never
returned to them alive, that
was going to have my tooth
pulled if I died during the opera
tion; but just as soon as I woulc.
start up the flight of stairs lead-
ing to the dentist’s office my
heart would fail' me and my
tooth would quit hurting and
would joyfully return home anc
report to my family that the den
tist was out of town.
A few years ago I had a tooth
extracted by a new process mis
named “painless” dentistry that
looms up in my memory to this
day like a six month’s laundry
bill. I had been suffering with
the toothache for three days and
nights—the kind that throbs like
a mashed toe and ticks like a dol-
lar watch. I received three
anonymous letters, presumably
from our near neighbors, the sec-
ond morning of my toothache,
breathing dire threats against
me if I didn’t have the tooth
pulled and stop my noise of
nights so they could sleep.
Bright and early on the third
morning I announced to my fam-
ily and to all of my near neigh-
bors that I was going to have my
tooth pulled as soon as I could
reach a dentist and that I could
whip any man who doubted my
statement. I then left in a hurry
for town, but was surprised to
find my wife waiting at the gate
to accompany me. I remonstrated
with her and told her that I
didn’t want her tagging after
me; that I was going to have ev-
ery tooth in my head jerked out
and the great quantity of blood
that was certain to flow might
cause her to faint. But in spite
of my objection she went with
me. When we came in sight of
the dentist’s office my tooth quit
aching all at once and I began to
pull back. It took my wife ten
minutes to get me to the stair-
way leading to the dentist’s of-
fice and after she got me to the
foot of the stairs I balked again,
until she had proved by a dozen
people who passed that all den-
tists were now extracting teeth
without pain. When we started
to ascend the stairs I felt like a
criminal going to his execution,
and by the time we had entered
his office beads of cold sweat
were standing out all over my
face and I had made up my mind
to cut his head off if he at-
tempted to pull the tooth without
my consent. My wife explained
to this tooth-gouger the condition
of my tooth, the lack of my
nerve and my general depravity.
He asked me to take a seat in
his operating chair and let him
look at the tooth, and said he
might be able to save it by treat-
ing it. I finally consented to let
him look at it after he had given
me his word of honor that he
would not pull it without my
consent.
Just as soon as he looked at it
he said the molar (I think that’s
what he called it) could not be
saved but he could extract it
absolutely without pain. When
he said this, I got off the chair in
a hurry and told my wife to come
on that I was going. She plead
with me with tears in her eyes
to have the tooth extracted. She
called;my attention to the suffer-
ing the tooth had caused, not
only to myself, but to all of our
near neighbors as well, and by
way of strengtheningmy courage
told me of a poor widow, who
lad every tooth in her head ex-
tracted at one time. I finally
yielded to her entreaties and
agreed to let the doctor pull it
oy a purely painless process.
I think the doctor did every-

thing in his power to pull that
tooth in a painless way, as far as
it concerned my family and
neighbors, but from a purely
personal standpoint, it was a
miserable failure.
Just as soon as he began pull-
ing on the tooth, I knew there
had been some miscarriage in
his plans and tried to get up out
of the chair, but he held me
down with an iron grip. I tried
to call my wife, but my tongue
was paralyzed. I saw flashes of
forked lightning and could hear
the thunder crash, the roar of
cannon and the scream of shells.
Then I thought I was drowning
and felt the cold water as I sank
into its musky depths. I heard
my neck-bones pop and felt my
spine when it snapped asunder.
Then I thought I had been hurled
from some awful precipice and
just as I was about to strike the
jagged rocks below, I came to
myself with a start. There stood
the painless fraud holding my
tooth aloft, and with a smile
suffusing his face, he qiiietly re-
marked: “I told you it wouldn’t
hurt.”
My wife says he was not over
two seconds in extracting that
tooth, but it seems to me like he
was at least an hour. She claims the craving for liquor of indi-
Would License Drinkers, Not the
Sellers.
One of the ever recurring ‘ ‘so-
lutions” of the liquor problem
has at least the merit of novelty.
Prof. William J. Spillman, chief
of the office of farm management
in the department of agriculture,
is the author of the new scheme.
He says he has been studying
the liquor problem for twenty
years and he has arrived at the
conclusion that the best way to
get rid of the traffic is to license
drinkers. This plan, he says, will
wipe out the liquor trade within
a generation. The license to
drink, under the professor’s
scheme, is to be issued only to
adults who make declaration that
iquor is necessary to their happi-
ness and peace of mind. Armed
with license, any “rummy” can
satisfy his cravings wherever
iquor is sold and so long as he
can raise the price. But it shall
oe made an offense visited with
ueavy punishment for any liquor
dealer or other person to supply
intoxicating drink to any indi-
vidual who does not possess a
icense. The professor’s plan
contemplates placing a time limit
after which no further licenses
to drink will be issued. Thus
the pulling of it didn’t hurt me a
bit, that it was all imagination
on my part, but I am standing
pat on my first impressons, that,
he came darn near killing me.

Tooth Grew in His Ear.
Leo Smith, 14-year-old son of
Mr. and Mrs. Charles Smith, of
Middleton, Ohio, had been suf-
fering with earache for several
months, when physicians began
an operation a few days ago ana
his ear was operated on by a local
physician who found a full-grown
tooth imbedded in the lining of
the ear, as perfectly formed as if
it had grown in his mouth.
The boy is in a Cincinnati hos-
pital, where the case will be
studied and the ear treated.
