The actions are brought as a result of an automobile accident on Sunday, May 12, when a big touring car went over a high bank into the Missouri river from the Nebraska side, killing Frank Brienzo, 23 years old, and a girl known as Mabel Mace, and in juring Mickey Brienzo, a brother of Frank. All occupants of the car were residents of South Sioux City, Neb. The accident occurred at a point where the road dividing Cedar and Dixon counties reaches the river. Owing to the fact that farmers had been crossing the ice of the river during the winter the road was well traveled desnito tho fnct thnt it-, mn directfy to the river, the actions al lege. .Negligence on the part of the counties in failing to provide barricades between the end of the road and the river is alleged in the petitions, The petition filed in be half of the estate of the Mace girl by C.

Wo had a good program, the music was the best that has been furnished by any board for some time past. The service was in bo half of the Nachusa Orphanage. How glad parents should be, and are, for their children's sake they are spared to them to mnko a homo for them and to train them right. What a blessing to tho childion God gives them parents. There are so many children who arc losing their fathers and mothers. The war has made numberless orphans and its maw is not yet filled. It will take many in our land but not so many mothers will be taken. Ametica should thank God for that and show their thankfulness by seeing that no child suffers for food, raiment and shelter, and wo will. Our church has children who are not cared for by parents, for they have none. Nachusa is one place where the church gives them a home. All the support i free will offering. No sot iii( .. ! .support at all is for Nachusa ,!ut God helps it and feed3 the children. Tho manage ment is efficient and the homo has a fine standing in its community now. The children are well behaved and pleasant. Better than ever before. Our offering was $00.00. Last Friday Mr. G. F. Wortz, of Midland college, was a caller at the parsonage. He was here in the in terest of the college. Tho pastor took him to Homer to see some pros pects and wo visited some of our own people of Salem who havo col lege work in view. Mr. Wertz was much pleased with his trip here. We are looking for Mr. Weller to be with us again in September. Tho object then will be to help our men with their annunl canvas for our church funds. You have notic ed that under tho present system no one is asking you for any money, when you are at church. Pleasant, isn't it. How would you like to go back to the old days? Nobody for that, There Is to bo a congregational meeting at Hubbard next Sunday. At that lime they will see what they can do toward the support of a pastor. May bo you think there is no no ticable difference in the way our young people take hold of the music we have for our different services. Thoy get it much easier than when tho pastor tried to teach them that first Christmas service. We don't presume to take the credit to our self, far from it, for many of them have been taking musical instruction a good deal of the time, and all of them are older, and wo have had most efficient help. We worosimply saying there has been a notable ad vance in the line. It is now an ob-. jeet to keep up this work and line it up for the church and God's king dom. Parents can do much more for this in tho home with their own children than the pastor can. Do not let your young folks think they are too big. None ever get too old to s'ng. We never get too old to sing praises to God. Keep them coming to the church, and come yourself. I 1 I F. Hughes & Lu pr DEIIUVl n Ha a- - i b a $!

GREER, Mgr. Former, Sheriff A. N. Ander son Now Endorses Tanlac Prominent Houston Alnn Say? 'Money Could Not Buy llio (loot! It Has Done Ale." "Money could not buy the good Tanlac has done me, and I gladly recommend it for what it has done in my case," said Hon. Archie R. Anderson, of Houston, ox'-shorl'if of Harrison county, Texas, recently. Mr. Anderson is unquestionably, not only one of tho best known, but one of the most populur men that ever hold public office in "Tho Lone Star" state. After serving as depu ty sherifr of Harrison county for twelve years, Mr. Anderson was elected chief of police of the city of Houston. He had occupied this of fice only a short time when the sheriff of Harrison county died. Mr. Anderson's friends persuaded him to make the race for the unex pired term of sheriff to which he was easily elected. He was honored with re-election seven times and serv ed tho people in this important of fice for fifteen consecutive years. Four years ago Mr. Anderson de clined re-election and retired tc private lifo. He cast his lot among the people of Houston and is a large property owner and foremost citizen of this interesting and prosperous city. "I was in a run-down condition, ' continued Mr. Anderson, "and had no appetite at all. I could hardly sleep at night and never felt like getting up in the morning, I was so tired. I had the worst form of in digestion, suffered all the time from gas on my stomach and was contin ually belching up undigested food. I had to take my coffee without sugar, as when I drank it with sugar, I would just belch for hours. I would bloat and swell up like 1 was poisoned and suffered with neural gic pains of the worst sort, and noth ing seemed to helped mo only in a temporary way. I just can't tell you how I did suffer for tho past four years and up to the time I be gan taking Tanlac, a few weeks ago. "When I read the testimoni'j of some who had been relieved of troubles like mine I just felt like 1 couldn't make a mistake by taking Tanlac and it has done even more for mo than I had expected. I be gan to feel better after taking my first bottle and have just now start ed on my third and I'm a different man already. I sleep like a log now and eat just any and everything I want without the slightest discom fort afterwards. I am glad to in dorse Tanlac because it does tho work and I'm telling all my friends just whnt I'm telling you. I never felt better in my life than I do since taking Tanlac. I am willing for you to publish my statement and let every sufferering person who mny wish, benefit by my experience with this great medicine." Tanlac is sold in Dakota City by Neiswanger Pharmacy.
