'That was decided at a mass meet

week, called to decide whether or

telephone company's books by an ex

The 23 per cent rai.-ie was granted in
April and will continue in force until
December 31, 1J21, when the old rate
will be re-tored.
Because of a reported declaration bv

liave their phones reinstalled, a resolu
tion was p.doT)terl demanding that no

throne to New York, und the fun
begins.
"Seven Years Bad l uck," said to be
the funniest five-reel comedy ever
made, is scheduled for Wednesday. In
the leading role, Max hinder (as him
self) gives the greatest comedy por
trayal of his career. His is a hard
luck story and the old jinx begins to
work early in the picture when Max
hurls a shoe through a large mirror,
shattering it all over the set. His
first blow comes when his fiancee re
turns the well-known engagement ring
and asks him to visit a warm climate
for a rest. Throughout the story Max
proves himself a good fellow but cer
tainly captures all ribbons and prizes
for hard luck. In the end, however,
the fates sort of let up on him and he
is compensated for his fidelity.
Fairbury a Peaceful Town
FAIRBURY. Fairbury claims the
record as a peaceable, law-abiding
community. For four weeks there has
not been a criminal complaint filed in
this town, for violation of a state law
or city ordinance. One reason is be
cause there was no officer before whom
to lay the complaint. L. J. Nutzman,
county judge, has been in California,
taking a vacation. He acts as police
magistrate, complaints of violations of
Fairbury city officers being laid before
him.
There is no police magistrate in
Fairbury since the death of Judge R.
r Piiu.oil mnr than vear airo. The
city council decided Fairbury did not
tioaiI a nnlice magistrate and the va
cancy was never filled. At the last
iutinR thir via no candidate for it
There is no justice of the peace in
i.kniir an A nnna within ten miles.

Had a serious crime been committeed
within the past month, the prelimi
narv honrintr would have been held at
Beatrice or Hebron or some other
town. Not only was Fairbury short
on magistrates but there has been a
dearth of preachers authorized to per
form the marriage ceremony. The
deputy county judge, Miss Rogers, is
sued eight marriage licenses last week
und tiv nf tbpe monies were married
bv practically the only preacher in
town, Kev. Mr. mvies, an oi ine om
v tinimr nu'iiv on their vacations.
With no crimes and few preachers
Fairbury may be listed as the model
town.
Hiot Was Expensive.
OMAHA The total bill which tax
juiyers will pay for repairing the court
Mouse damage will be nearly ?f00,(00,
jibout $l-",(i(0 k--s th"i the original
t'stitr.nte, according to . statement by
John I.,atcn--.er, architect.
A total of f I."0,174.4S already has
Veen pent, which dors not include
-aipets rnd shades, nor the architect's
foe-, the latter being 7 per cent of the
.-amount expended.
Jt is nearly two years since work
men started to repair the damage
which was wrought bv the mob on the
nivht of September 2. l!)l!. Treas
urer Knders expects to retuin to his
pernr.tncnt offices on the second floor,
i.nd the court room on the fifth floor
which he has been occupying will be
restored as rapidly as possible.
In addition to the amount spent on
building repairs, idmut $200,000 was
expended in restoring records lost in
the fire.
Thursday's feature is Mary Pick-
ford in "Through the Back Door."
Our Mary has a little girl's part in the
play, the plot of which goes something
like this: A wife brings the spectre
of divorce into her home when she be
came a petulent, dissatisfied sort of
person through grief for a child she
believes dead. The problem of restor
ing happiness in this household falls to
the lot of Mary Pickford in one of her
inimitable character roles. There are
innumerable complicat'ons, some of
them laughable, others quite tragic
all leading up to a denouement logical
and satisfying.

Pat had been debating politics with
Mike. Pat stepped outside the boiler
room to deposit his quid, Suddenly
there was a terrific explosion and
Mike disappeared through the roof.
"Poor Mike! ruminated Pat, stick

alwuz flies up into the air every time
I argy with him.
HIS TROUBLE OF
20 YEARS ENDED
Cedar Rapid Man Regrets That He
Didn't Know of Tanlac Years Ago
Almost Gave l'p Hopes.
"My only regrets is that I didn't
know about Tanlac years ago, for it
would have saved me a world of suf
fering, to say nothing of all the
money I spent trying to get well."
said Frank Smock, 1338 Avenue A,
East Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
"Ever since I had malarial fever
twenty years ago my stomach had
been giving me trouble. I had to live
on a restricted diet, and 'even then
just suffered agony from sour stomac
and bloating after every meal. At
times the gas pressed up around my
heart, causing terrible palpitations and
almost cutting off my breath. My
sleep was restless and broken, and I
seldom was free of a tired, worn out
feeling.
"Well. I almost gave up all hope of
ever getting well, but I kept on hear
ing about Tanlac and I finally decided
to give it a trial. My improvement
has been almost beyond belief. I have
a splendid appetite, am eat'ng things
I hadn't dared touch in years and
never have the least pain of distress.
I sleep like a log at night and get up
mornings like a sixteen year old boy.
Tanlac hps certainly done wonders for
me, and the best I can say for it is not
as good es it deserves."
Tanlac is sold in Alliance by F. E.
Holsten and by good druggists everywhere.

mass meeting at the court house.
George Funk and Dr. Otis Newman
spoke against the ordinance. They
appeared to favor the carnivals on the
streets of the cty sponsored bv Am

put the proposition on the ballot next
spring.

A few miles away or several hundred, it is all tho

Approximately half rates apply beyond certain dis
tances for station-to-station calls after 8:30 p. m. and
approximately quarter rates from midnight to 4:30 a. m.
