NEBRASKA AND OMAHA GET DESIRABLE PUBLICITY Nebraska and Omaha are getting a wonderful amount of publicity because of the travel to the expositions. Fig ures compiled in San Francisco show that more than sixty per cent of the transcontinental travel is going through Nebraska and Omaha, either on the outgoing journey or on the re turn trip. Many of the tourists, especially those from the eastern state, make their trip through Nebraska in the day time, arriving in Omaha in the evening. The invitation to Stop in Nebraska and Omaha stares every traveler in the face in San Francisco. In every validating office, and all tickets have to be validated, the invitation is on ev ery counter, huge blotters covering the counters. In addition, tickets are placed in envelopes which carry the same invitation. Nothing but words of commendation are heard for Nebraska on every side. The trip through the state leaves a very desirable impression on the trav eler. They have learned that Nebras ka is the greatest agricultural state in the union and with the hundreds of miles of land groaning under the pro duction, an object lesson has been giv en which will never be forgotten. TO THE PUBLIC. Whereas, it has been rumored that the Undertaking Establishment oper ated by Allan Jones at 2314 North 24th street, Omaha, is a branch of G.

"I married a new woman, sir," the prisoner groaned. "Aha!” said the missionary, "and she was so domineering and extrava gant that it drove you to desperate courses, eh?” “No,” replied the prisoner; "but the old woman turned up.”—Tit-Bits. G.
