Two traveling libraries will be sent to
McCook during tho continuanco of the
junior normal this summer
Why does tho reader of today prefer
the now and the untried book to the
aid whoso qualities are known to the
book that has endured the severest test
that a book can bo put to tho test of
time Tho book for which most fre
quent calls are made is the latest while
tho old ones are neglected Take from
the library shelves any one of the new
books at least any one of them that
has been advertised and you will see
from an inspection of tho slip upon
which is kept a record of its comings
and goings that it has passed through
many hands and probably been read by
many people Turn then to the shelves
upon which tho works of Scott and
Dickens and Thackery stand and you
will find that many of these volumes
have not been out of the library
It is a phenomenon difficult to account
for The now books are not necessarily
in more attractive form than the old
They are not more modern if they are
more recent It is not because they are
of a time earlier than our own that we
read the new for some of the most pop
ular of the late books are historical and
deal with the past It is not that the
new is more entertaining than the old
for nothing can be more fascinating
than tales that were written long ago
With Mr Gladstone it was a rule not to
read a book unless it had survided at
least a year There are few of us who
would not do well to follow Mr Glad
stones example The books of last year
are not read now not for the reason that
has led to the neglect of the old books
but because the reading public has dis
covered that they are not worth reading
Who that has road Ivanhoe and Ken
nilworth David Copperfield and Tale of
Two Cities Vanity Fair and Esmond
has not derived infinitely more pleasure
from the perusal than he has from read
ing any of the current book that he can
name Who that has experienced the
delights of a first reading of any of
these would be willing to have foregone
that pleasure The old so much of it
has survived is literature as well as
fiction To read it is not only a past
time but an intellectual diversion
When the story for which you call is not
in take a volume from one of the neg
lected shelves and see if you do not
derive a keener enjoyment from the
hours you spend with it than you have
had for some time
Following is a list of the books in the

just been received by the library

The Appetite
of Humixn Nature
S4 1
When Uneeda Biscuit were first introduced a conservative said -
sThey are all right as far as they go but they wont satisfy the worker The
worker you see wants something solid and substantial and plain like potatoes
cabbage or beef These delicate and crisp biscuit packed so daintily in that
Package will not appeal to him any more than winter strawberries
That sounded like good reasoning But fact upsets theory
Workers everywhere have been great consumers of Uneeda Biscuit
The outdoor worker seated at noon upon the sidewalk a house wall for his back
rest mill hands in the mill yard seated on comfortable bales teamsters and
draymen on their high box seats all have eaten Uneeda BIscuSf and their
wives have eaten them and their children have eaten them
Another conservative took another view
Uneeda Biscuit are all right he said to sell to the workers
but you must not expect to sell them to the more prosperous people They are
too cheap Five cents a package that kills Uneeda Biscuit so far as the
wealthy are concerned The price should be higher they are worth it
That too sounded reasonable but it also turned out to be only theory
Tor the greatest grocers of the city and of the country say Uneeda
Biscuit have taken the place of the more expensive biscuit Over 200000000
packages have been consumed
The worker eats Uneeda Biscuit because of their goodness
The wealthy eat them because of their delicacy
The whole world eats them because they represent the highest value as
a food product pure wholesome good
The appetite of human nature always relishes
a good change of diet Uneeda Milk Biscuit
is a change that never disappoints

Lines in Memory of Maurice Heafy
BY HIS FATHER
He is gone God be with him our own darling
boy
Our hearts feel full sorely and sadly this
day
Yot in some sense there is cause for much joy
Since only the body is mouldering away
The spirit the soul the senses of pleasure
Of peace and of happiness they never die
This knowledge alone is to us a vast treasure
Well knowing the life of our own darling boy
He lived as one should he avoided the evil
He worshiped his God he was ready to go
Thoughtful and honest decent and civil
Willing for justice to dare and to do
Respected by all who happened to know him
Patient in suffering slow to complain
Long w ell remember him discarding oblivion
Thankful to God that our loss is his gain
He is gone to receive his well earned reward
In mansions of bliss with our Heavenly
Lord
Bo grateful my heart he is now free from pain
Though lost to us here we shall see him
again

Otoe County by Congressman VanWyck
When Charles H VanWyck was still
a resident of New York state and a mem
ber of congress from the Empire state
he made investments in Otoe county
lands After returning home from a
visit to the county in the early spring of
1872 he wrote the Middleton N Y
Press a description of that county two
paragraphs of which are here repro
duced from the Red Willow Gazette of
February 1872
It opens upon one of the most beau
tiful and rich agricultural counties the
eye anywhere beholds Gently swelling
prairies roll beautifully away to the
north the south and west so that the
eyes tire not in looking and are only
limited by the faroff horizon A soil
soil rich in fertility equal to the richest
of the Nile with but little labor from
man rewards generously the husband
man
No matter how often you may roam
over these boundless prairies the wonder
will still grow at the grand and bound
less munificence of the Creator in un
rolling this vast region almost as limit
less in extent as inexhaustible in fer
tility and the mind is always bewil
dered in the contemplation of the great
wealth hidden in the soil not hidden
but more open to the eye and hand of
man than the spangles of gold that en
rich the gulches or sparkle by the foamy
water courses of Colorado Why should
man anywhere hunger when these broad
savannahs could furnish bread not only
for our own but all the nations of the
earth The sky with all its system of
planets the ocean without depth and
bounds do not impress the beholder
more with the power and goodness of
the Creator than the life sustaining
capacity of the western prairies
Spring Ailments
There is an aching and tired feeling
the liver bowels and kidneys become
sluggish and inactive the digestion im
paired with little or no appetite no
ambition for anything and a feeling
that the whole body and mind needs
toning up The trouble is that during
winter there has been an accumulation
of waste matter in the system Herbine
will remove it secure to the secretions a
right exit and by its tonic effect fully
restore the wasted tissues and give
strength in place of weakness 50c at
