' "Wrong Principle IolTa."
Former Ambassador to Japan and
Italy Thomas J. O'Brien, is outspoken
in condemnation of Mr. Ford. He says :
"There are many reasons given why
Mr. Ford should not represent Michi
gan in the United States senate. He is
content to be elected upon any ticket
that will appear to be the strongest and
he it doing this at the request of the
I (resident of the United States. This
nvolve a principle which I regard as
vital. The president has violated this
principle for unworthy reasons. Primar
ily, he would like an additional reliable
vote in the senate which he could com
mand at all timet without question and
without effort. Mr. Kurd i enormously
wealthy. At a contributor to democratic
party funds he would he of immense

Ex -Governor Osborne said today:
"When I made my statement of re

Lillian's lips were twitching with
laughter, her tones were, full of the nM
familiar raillery. 1 jhook myself free
from a painful brown study, tried to
, meet her mood, although I had no idea
whom she meant.

I can't imagine which one of them you

Lillian a mimicry waa perfect. I gave

Almost syiy other woman would have
aid toothingly : "Of course, ynti can't."
Rut that wasn't Lillian Underwood's
Avav.
' Oh, but you can, and you must !" She
said brightly, and there was that in her
words which steadied and strengthened
me. I braced mvself mentally and
physically to be worthy of her confi
dence. "Would you like to prlnV t bit before
receiving Vouf caller?" Lillian asked
inischievnuslv, and I realized grate
fully that with her usual tact sht ht(

"Oh. I don't believe William will he

bring him in at once.
Fvidantly William wai waiting in the
hospital corridor, for when Lillian re
turned from the door he wai following
in her wake.
And such a resplendent William f I
coii'd hardly control my risible muscles
ai the old chap's appearance. Where
be bad tinrirthrd the different articles,
which composed his wardrobe I hadn'1
the sliKblest ida. His hat was of the
type which William would hiinself term
"opry," but it was so frayed and dented
and shiny, and to ancient a vintage
that 1 mentally put .be performance at
which it had made its debut a decade or
so before.
"He Savea Me Bargains."
His coat was a glaring plaid, his
waist coat and pleated shirt both niuc'i
worn were of the conventional evening
type, while, his trousers were of the
deadest, heaviest black ttuff I d ever
seen. His shoes had once been tan. and
the old fellow had evidently had them
colored in some fashion, for they shone
like varnish.
He took off his ancient hat as he
came through the door, and .bobbed h'i
funny little bow at me. bis face filled
with pleasure at senna me and with
pride in hit get tip.
"How do you do, William," I said
shakinir the U1 fellow's hand cordially.
How nic you look"
His face absolutely Rlowed. .
"Howdy Mis' Gramie" he returned
"Thi suit hain't niithin'. You should
see some of the rlnthes I've got, hut 1
couldn't git 'em fixed up in time to come
today"
f His tone was that of an opulent sar
torial light, yet I knew that the poor
old chap's coins were few. 1 waited
making no comment, sure that Will
liam'l loquacity would betray the secret
in another moment or two.
"Would you like to know where I Ret
sech swell things, Mil' Gramie?" be
asked.
"Of course, William," I returned.
"Well, there't a feller in Jamaica
keepa a tecond-hand sjo'e and pawn

wtyt stves ma bargains and lets me
work 'em out. ,1 worked pretty near
two weeks fer these things, hard, too
Of courte, he givet roe my eits, an' lets
me sleep on the floor, so I wasn't any
thing out except my work."
My heart was hot within me at the
rapacity of the second-hand man who
had exacted so gre.it a toll for the
Inrarre clothing. I opened my lips to
remonstrate with. William, to show him
his folly, then a sudden flash of in
sight closed them effectually.
William's clothes made perfact happi
ness for him. No price was too great
(or him to pay when one considered the
result to him.

I orn Compound, ar any drug store, and
paint the com with it. In a few days

A bottle of Cactut Com Compound
costs only a few centt and is enough
to take off dorens of corns. Full di
rections conie with each bottle. Any

HUMANITY
af
A Thousand Flickering, Human Baby Lives Fighting
Against Summer Heat Can Be Saved From Suffering
and Death if You Will Give Them
Ice and Pure Milk
Down in the poorer districts
of Oklahoma City the' part
that you and I scarcely ever see
and know so little about there
are, perhaps a thousand suffer
ing little children of the poor,
under-fed, ill-housed, many of
them sick unto death, waging a
losing battle against the flies
and filth and summer heat.
Many of them are doomed un
less we help.
Their mothers and fathers
when there is a father are un
able with iheir meagre earnings
to provide them with ice and
pure milk to bolster their little
bodies against the terrific heat
The goal of this Ice and Milk
Fund is $3,000 and it must be
raised by Saturday. The fund
will be administered by the
Provident Association where
needed most.
If the spark of human kind
ness is in your soul; if you want
to help save a life, send your
contribution, now, quickly. A .
thousand silent "Thank yous"
will be your reward.
Make all checks payable to and mail to the "Milk and
Ice Fund," care The Oklahoman
