doing the papering and decorating,
while the moister is doing the paint
ing and varnishing.
J. S. Pitman is painting and oth
erwise decorating the home on the
farm, and putting it in excellent con

man is a beautiful place and the
added touch is making it more so.
Frank Eaton who went to the
west for his wife's health returned

Denver where they will make their

! Reports were received here of the

Lidgett and wife.
! A. L. Becker was hauling material
for the new house which he is hav

George Trunkenbolz of Eagle and
Charles Schafer of Murdock were in
Union on last Saturday arranging
for the constructing of a filling sta
tion on the lots which Mr. Trunk
enbolz has recently purchased from
the Frans Bros, for that .purpose.
Uncle George Eaton has been quite
poorly at his home in Union for the
past week and is being'cared for and
given the best medical attention as
well as nursing. Still he remain

ery. .
Charles Atchison, living over at
Sciota, was shelling and delivering
corn at the Flossie McCarthey ele
vator on last Monday afternoon.
There was considerable delivery of
he yellow cereal, but the shelling
has in a manner stopped for the
present.
I Mrs. Charles Hoback. whose birth
day fell on Monday of this week cele
brated the event, with her little son,
Donald, who was six years of age
on the same day. A most pleasant
day was enjoyed by the mother and
daughter and other friends on the
happy occasion.
Oscar Dowler of Manley was a
visitor ni Union last Monday, coming
over to secure some parts from a
tractor and grader which was here
and has been worn out, that they
might be used on the machinery
which he has for ue at Manley and
thus avoid the purchase of more new
parts.
Waldo Resso and Charles Ater
berry were in Nebraska City last
Monday afternoon, where they went
for a new Chevrolet touring car that
Mr. Atterberry was selling to Mr.
Resso. Waldo has made a good selec
tion in getting this excellent wagon
-and we are sure that he will find
that it is one that can be depended
upon.
It is a boy, but his father, Clifton
Smith cannot whistle the merry
tune, for you see when one smiles,
the face cannot pucker so one can
whistle and the smiles are the one
potent element on the pleasing con
tinence of Mr. Smith since the ar
rival of the son and heir. All are
doing nicely at the Smith home, and
all are happy.
Next Sunday morning the Metho
dist church will observe Fathers' clay

Will Close Out Store.
W. A. Harding, who some time ago
purchased the Farmers store in Union
which he intended to conduct and
make his home here, was not able to
keep the room in which the store is
located for a great length ofi time, as
the building his been sold and will
eventually be used for other pur
I poses. Mr. Harding therefore has de
cided to close out the stock and will
'with the beginning of May begin a
sale which will completely close out
the stock of goods.
J The stock is a clean one and of
!the best of goods. The grocery stock
'will be disposed of by giving a ten
per cent discount while this line
lasts. The other goods, consisting of
general merchandise, work clothing,
dry goods, etc., will be sold at cost.

The strum treatment is perhaps the
latest effort to solve the problem of
disease, by those who do net believe
than one can safely rely upon Nature.
Where, medicines seek to relieve
after disease has been contracted the
serum trratn?.ent seeks to prevent its
contraction.
Serum treatment includes scrums,
anti-to:-:ins, vaccines adiainisteieJ by
injections into the blood stream for
a wide variety of specific diseases in
cluding typhoid, diphtheria,, small
pox, tetanus, hay-fever and others.
It is an effort to reinforce the ele
ments within the blood which com
bat the ina?ion of disease.
Medical authorities agree, as do all
ttudents of physiology, that Nature
produces within the body a serum
which counteracts toxins introduced
through bacteria or germs. The ex
cretory system eliminates the refuse
or poison and disease i- prevented.
The Chiropractor, instead of seek
ing to introduce into the body a serum
which with take the place gf normal
secretions that the body should form
for itself, searches for the reason why
OXE PERSON IS SUCCESSFULLY
MANUFACTURE HIS OWN ANTI
TOXINS AND SUCCESSFULLY
NEUTRALIZE TOXIN INVASIONS,
WHILE ANOTHER IS UNABLE TO
DO SO.
The answer is found in the spine.
There will be found a minute mis
alignment of some bone, pressing upon
s nerve; DIMINISHING THE CARRY
ING CAPACITY OF THAT NERVE.
The organ it serves, which would
manufacture the need serum, has suf
fered in consequence. All that the
chiropractor has to do is to remove
that pressure from that nerve, and
nnture will then take care of the

HELLO CHILDREN
Once upon a time, there was a man who was chuck full
of frugality. Upon walking up to a clothing cabinet he
inquired of the debonair salesman, "You got any suita
how much are they?" "Yes sir and enough," was
the reply. Whereupon he soon found himself poured
neatly into a $40 suit, and on slanting his lines in the
conveniently placed mirror, said, "She's mine; I've dis
illusioned myself on cheap clothing I'm cured."
Thereupon he planked down TWO
20 "Bills" and Walked Out
A few years after, this same frugal cuss returned for
another suit and insisted on having one with a label
"K" in it. Said he
"I've discovered it's the last $10 that counts
in a suit. It's like the $1,000 difference in
two houses, the cheaper one is a good house
but they left all the plumbing out of it."
