The lady was preparing fqr her
first trip abroad. She consulted her
doctor us to the best course to pur
sue to avoid seasickness. He ad
vocated eating heartily. Another
doctor, to whom she mentioned her
doubts, advised her to refrain from
eating. In despair at such conflict
ing advice, she consulted a third
physician and asked which was
right.
"Both, my dear madam, both," he
replied. "It just depends upon
whether you prefer to discard from
strength or weakness." Lippin-cottV

Dear Sir: Allow me to express my
gratitude for the kind invitation of
the Plattsmouth Commercial club
to be their guest on next Tuesday
Tuesday evening. I have notified
the publishers of the county and am
pleased to be able to state that they

cord. It has been our desire for a
long time time to visit your city and
"Sec Plattsmouth Succeed." Yours

of every citizen of Cass county, for
our interests are mutual.

A battle second only In Importance
to the Jeffrles-Jobnson mill Is now In
order. Stanley Ketchel, the middle
weight champion, and Sam Lnngford,
the bard hitting light heavyweight,
have practically agreed to meet In
San Francisco within the next month
or so. The bout between them prom
ises to be a grudge affair and Is a
pugilistic plum for which the promot

With tho men in good condition the
battle should result in one of the best
contests ever pulled off in this coun

( a second rater. After his poor show

did not train properly. That's a time

middleweight champion should have
been in good shape for the go.
With Ketchel in first class condition

or come pretty near It. anyway. The
real trouble with Stanley Is that he
has been training on sparkling wine
since he was defeated by Johuson last
October aud needs a good long siege
of hard training.
In Longford he will meet a man al
most as good as Johnson. In his lust
bout with Jim Flyuu, the Pueblo fire

Brookes end Wilding of Australia to
Visit This Country In Summer.
Word has been received that the
Australian I.uwn Tennis association
will scud on Invading tea in to Amer
ica the coming summer In hope of cap
turing the national championship and
other titles. It is announced that this
team will consist of the four greatest
players In Australasia Norman E.
Urookes of Victoria, Anthony F. Wild
ing of New Zealand, A. Walter Dun
lop of Victoria and Ir. Sharp of New
South Wales. The team probably will
sail for America the latter part of May
and will be accompanied by a team of
six golfers comprising the best golf
talent la the island continent. I'.olh
teams will make complete tours of tho
U nt ted States uml will compete in all
of the important tournaments.
The visit of the Australasian play
ers will mark the llrst appearance of
players from the 1'iwllk' continent lu
the United States. Chief Interest, of
course, will ottaeh to the appearance
of the great I'.iookes. who for the
last three years has been regarded as
the greatest exponent of lawn tenuis
in the world. Wilding, his doubles
partner, however, is almost as well
knowu as I'.rookes and was responsi
ble more than the latter for tho victo
ries of Australia over the two teams
from Ameiii ii which Invaded the I'.rlt
ish colony in 1008 and l'.MJit In quest of
the Davis cnp.
The other two membeis of the Aus
tralasian team. Duulop and Or. Sharp,
are not so well known In this country,
although Fred It. Alexander, holder
with Ilaekett of the American dou
bles championship, regards the former
as the greatest doubles player he ever
has seen.
The actual plans of the Australasian
team have not been made known, but
It is regarded as a certainty that the
quartet will appear in the western
championships at Chicago this season

like, the p.iard, noticing perhaps

fiercely, "Sir, I am the show."
