The Heating of Houses. The central heating of houses is com ing in greater favor every year, the heat being more uniformly distributed through all apartments. It can be com pared with the action of the heart in the human body. This also is the cen tral organ of distributing blood through out the system, thus keeping it warm and comfortable. If the circulation of blood is interfered with in a part of the body, this part becomes cold and finally dies. Blood is the fuel of the system and food is the fuel of the blood. This shows why it is so important to take in plenty of nutritious food. If for some reason the system refuses to accept or cannot thoroughly digest the food it be comes necessary to use Triner's Ameri can Elixir of Bitter Wine. This reme dy will make the blood to circulate more speedily, will make the body warm and comfortable and will make the digestive system to accept the and assimilate any food. Triner's American Elixir of Bit ter Wine will purify the blood, strength en the muscles and the nerves, preserve health and fortify the body against at tacks of infectious diseases. At drug stores.

(Chicago Tribune) "Don't trifle with a cold,' is good ad vice for prudent men and women. It may be vital in the of a child. Proper food, good ventilation, and dry warm clothing are the safe guards against colds. If they are maintained through the changeable weather of autumn, winter and sring, the chances of a surprise from ordinary colds will be slight. But the ordinary light cold will become severe if neglected, and a well established ripe cold is to the germs of diphtheria what honey is to a bee. The greatest menace to a child life at this season of the year is the neg lected cold. " Whether it is a child or adult, the colds light or severe, the very best treatment that can be adopted is to give Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. It is safe and sure. The popularity and immense sale of this preparation has been attained by its remarkable cures of this ailment. A cold never results in pneumonia when it is given. For sale by F. G. Fricke & Co.

The General Demand of the Well-Informed of the World has always been for a simple, pleasant and efficient liquid laxative remedy of known value; a laxative which physicians could sanction for family use because its com ponent parts are known to them to be wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, acceptable to the system and gentle, yet prompt, in action. In supplying that demand with its ex cellent combination of Syrup of Fig3 and Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies on the merits of the laxative for its remark able success. That is one of many reasons why Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is given the preference by the Well-informed.

At the morning session yesterday while only sparcely attended, Mr. S. R. McKelvie spoke on pork production in a way which was convincing, and those who heard him could not but be benefitted by what he had to say, if they ever in tend to raise hogs. The man who thinks farming is guess work is the man who has failed to make the success which his neighbors have achieved, and then attribute their own non-success to bad luck. In the afternoon Prof. F. W. Card, a farmer of Sylvania, Pennsylvania, spoke on "Factors of Soil Fertility" Prof. Card is a graduate of the Ne braska State university and well knows the soils of this state having lived here many a year. Sfnce his graduation he has been farming near the city of Syl vania, where he had charge of one of the farms which has been used for over one hundred years, but which is kept up to its maximum production by the proper care. The peculiar experiences which has been the lot of Prof. Card has well fitted him to speak on the subject assigned him for the afternoon session. He showed what was necessary for the production of all kinds of crops, and it is to be deplored that there were not more people to hear him. Following him came Mr. McKelvie, who is editor of the Nebraska Farmer and eminently well qualified to speak on the subject, UVJ Her mm if Many Friends Give Her a ftHscellancous Shower and Enjoy Pleasant Evening flt Home of V. D. Smith Mrs. W. D. Smith and Mrs. M. A. Dickson entertained a merry crowd of young ladies at a miscellanous shower Tuesday evening, in honor of Miss Jessie Duffey. The home of Mrs. Smith was beautifully decorated in red and white, red wedding bells were sus pended from the chandeliers, and red and white ribbons were hung from the center to each corner, making a very beautiful effect. In the parlor were little burnt wood hearts having cupids and date of the shower on each, they were tied with red baby ribbon and hung from corner to corner, these were distributed among the guests at the parting hour as a hand made remem brance from Mrs. Smith. The dining room tables were prettly decorated with ferns, and at a late hour, an elaborate two-course luncheon was served to the guests by Mrs. W. D. Smith, Mrs. F. E. Hawkenberry and Mrs. M. A. Dick son. The first course consisting of sandwiches, potatoe salad on lettuce, pickles and coffee, passed off very quiet ly, but the second course contained a pleasant surprise for all. Fruit salad was served with red and white calces cut in hearts, but the white pieces con tained a ring and a button among them. Much laughter was produced when Miss Freda Herold got the ring, signifying that she would be the next bride in the crowd. Miss Edna Peterson got the Poultry Wanted.

"Care of Pure Bred Stock" was his theme and what he naid in this respect could as well be applied to all kinds of stock, for it is useless to try to raise stock unless the proper care be taken of them, much less to invest money in fancy priced stock and then expect them to make their own living and one for you besides with no show at all. Those who listened to these addresses were well repaid for their time and whatever trouble it was for them to be in attendance. The even ing sessions were, on account of the weather, very slimly attended, while the same sterling merit was displayed by the speakers as during the afternoon. Mr. McKelvie spoke on "Nebraska Farming," while Prof. Card gave an address on "Opportunities for Young Men and Women in Agriculture." Those who were present listened with more than usual interest to the discourses, but it seems very discouraging to the state officials who have gone to the trouble to send out these speakers for the especial purpose of interesting and instructing the farmers, that they should fail to come because the weather was a little adverse. Well did Solomon of old speak truly when he said, "He that watcheth the clouds shall not sow and he that obaerv eth the winds shall not reap." Mr. McKelvie and Prof. Card departed for Union this morning where they will speak at an institute at that place, and will go to from there to Auburn. In speaking of the work Prof. Card said that he had been in the state for the past two weeks at different places, and would spend two weeks more here. button which meant that she was des tined to be the old maid in the crowd.
