FROM THE BUSY WORLD.
A. B. Crandal of Lincoln has called
upon the police of that municipality
to suppress all noise at his approach
ing nuptials. Crandall has a lurk
ing Idea that he has friends who will
make an undue celebration of his
quitting single blessedness and he
doesn't want them to be allowed to
demonstrate their feeling. He is to
wed Miss Ina Dell of Bethany and Ina
Is of the same opinion of A. B. and
does not care to have the festive
cannon cracker or the "katydid" dis
turb the s,weet solitude of the nuptial
eve.
According to the Internal revenue
service in the city of Lincoln, a "dry"
town, used $25,000 worth of beer In
August, 1909. This is something
which those who believe in prohibi
tion should study. It does not mean
that this was all used by Llncolnites
but merely the amount shipped into
the city by rail. What they consumed
by purchase in Havelock and at other
points is not shown In this total.
That $50,000 a month is what Lin
coln "dry" Lincoln used is much
more probable. If any real exhibi
tion of the futility of prohibition is
needed, show us.

A Clean Man
Outside cleanhoeis is less than half the battle. A man'nuy
scrub himself a dozen times a day, and still be unclean. Good
health means cleanliness not only outside, but inside. It means
clean stomach, clean bowels, clean blood, a clean liver, and
new, clean, healthy tissues. The man who is clean in this way
will look it and act it. He will work with energy and think
clean, clear, healthy thoughts.
He will never be trouhled with liver, lunj, stomach or blood
disorders. Dyspepsia and indigestion originate in unclean atom,
achs. Blood diseases are found where there is unclean blood.
vuniumpuun ana oronciutis mean unclean lungs.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
prevents these diseases. It makes a man's insldes clean
and healthy. It cleans the digestive organs, makes pure, '
clean blood, and clean, healthy flesh.
It restores tone to the nervous system, and cures nervous exhaustion and
prostration. It contains no aloohol or habit-forming drugs.
Constipation is the most unclean unclcanliness. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pel.

there is a great snow storm and this
coupled with low temperature means
much suffering to man and beast.

two of his deputies still in Jail. That
these men should be sent to jail for
trying to do the impossible is a stain
upon the court'B record and does not
reflect much credit upon the federal
authorities The crime which the
negro was charged with is the one
crime which stirs the south to ac
tion and the people of Chattanooga
would have lynched the negro without
regard to tho number of officers who
were guarding him. The men did the
best they could to protect him but
they failed and they would have been
foolish to have risked their lives In a
futile attempt to save a man who was
doomed.
