A rbor Day this year will have special significance because of the fact that it is not only the recurrence of the dav for Dlantinir trees, but also will this year be really a memorial of the death of the founder of Arbor Day, J Sterling Morton. A commendable feature will be a children's con tribution toward the erection of the Morton monument, which is to be built in Morton park. Nebraska City, in memory of this most distinguished one of Nebraska's dead. To provide for its erection in memory of the founder of Arbor Day, a memoria association has been formed with ex Governor R. W. Furnas as president and a number of Nebraska's most distinguished citizens as officers and executive committee. A large portion of the amount necessary to build the monument has already been donated An opportunity, however, is to be given to the school children of Ne braska to contribute of their smal store toward the erection of this me morial and Arbor Day is the most fitting time for them to make their gifts. There could be no more worthy enterprise than this, and teachers and pupils should take a decided interest and have a part in erecting this me morial in memory of the man who has done so much for Nebraska and his country.

The doctor was unable to locate the bullet at the time, and up to the time of going to press It has not Ik'Cii located.

The greatest danger from colds and grip is their resulting in pneumonia. If reasonable care is used, however, and Chamberlain's Cough Itcmedy taken, all danger will be avoided. Among the tens of thousands who have used this remedy for these diseases we have yet to learn of a single case having resulted in pneumonia, which shows conclusively that it is a certain pre ventive of that dangerousdisea.se.

For twenty-live years it is said a farmer in the east part of Lancaster county has been haunted by a dream that he had a long time ago, in which he saw a pot of gold hidden on his farm, but could never before have the courage to investigate. At last a few days ago he went to the spot indicated by his dream and when he had dug down about six feet his spade struck a hard substance. With great haste he threw the earth aside and finally dug out a horse's jaw bone. Now, some of his neighbors are jollying him by tell ing him that he must have really had a nightmare. For Sale.
