Dip Your Sheep The First of Juqe Dipping sheep is an operation that is performed once a year only as a rule and it is important that this once should prove effective. Tho right sort of dip is one that should destroy all insets or parasites and should have a heating and tonic effect on the skin without any possibility of injury. ZENOLEUM meets all these requirements. We believe it is the best one made. RAILWAY NOTES AND PERSONALS T Ufl4euMtbYw UkxjojoaA, J. C. McCotkle, Mgr. Lloyd C. Thomas, Secy.

The great secret society known as the "Mary Janes" has accepted an in vitation from Mrs. Geo. Gaddis to par take of a chicken supper at her home, ten miles southwest of Alliance, some evening next week. It is needless to say that the large red automobile which we have seen about our streets so often will be the means of conveying this merry party to their destination. We would like to suggest that each of the girls bring her pocket full of gasoline, as it is likely that the chauffuer will need it. Junior Normal Lecture and . Entertain ment Course. The management of the Junior -Normal lecture and entertainment course has placed season tickets on sale at Holsteu's at one dollar each. This gives five numbers of first-class enter tainment for the price of one. Adrian M. Newens, reader and impersonator, will give the first number, Friday night of this week. Prof. H. H. Reimund, with his state normal quartette, will give the second number June 22. The Chicago Glee Club will appear July 9, Captain W. R. Akersjuly 1, and the normal graduating exercises July 17. While this is an expensive course, the manegement deemed it best to place the price so low that every one might attend the full course. There is no better reader and impersonator in the country today than Adrian M. Newens, and no better glee club than the Chi cago Glee Club. Single admissions., 50c. Tickets on sale and seats reserv ed at Holsten's Thursday and Friday. OFFTHE WATER WAGON AGAIN CONTRIBUTIONS TO SISTERS' ACADEMY Weekly Report of Payments Toward the Erection of the School Building.

Rockey, who has been confined to the hospital with an attack of typhoid fever, was able to return to his home Tuesday. Chris, says he is I feeling fine, but it will be some time be fore he "can'retura to work. '-' l Next Sunday at the Methodist church the Peru quartette will sing both morn ing and evening. Do not miss the treat thus offered you. The subject in the. morning will be, "Man and the Cos mos;" in the evening the theme will be, "The True Definition of Faith." It hardly needs to be said that the people's church extends a cordial invitation to all the people. Next Sunday morning at the Baptist church a special sermon will be given to the children, the subject being "Cit ies of Refuge." There will be a chil dren's choir, and the front seats of the church will be reserved for members of the Sunday school. In the evening a program will be rendered by members of the Sunday school, and an offering taken for the missionary work of the publication societies. A welcome to all services: I dreamed I dwelt on an isle of cracked ice In the midst of a lake of champagne, Where bloomed the mint julep in meadows of green, Amid showers of lithia rain. I reclined on iv divan of lager beer foam, With a pillow of froth for my head, While the spray from a fountain of spark ling gin fizz Descended like dew on my bed. From far-away mountain of crystalline ice, A zephyr refreshing and cool Came wafting the incense of sweet muscatel That sparkled in many a pool. . My senses were soothed by the soft purring song Of a brooklit of oousse cafe That rippled along over pebbles of snow To a river of absinthe frappe. Then, lulled by the music of tinkling glass From schooners that danced on the deep, I dreamily sipped a high ball or two, And languidly floated to sleep. And then I awoke on a bed of rocks, With a bolster as hard as a brick, A pain in my bead, a rack in my neck, And a stomach detestably sick; With sand in my eye and grit in my throat Where the taste of last evening still clung, And felt a bath towel stuffed into my mouth Which I afterwards found was my tongue; And I groped for the thread of the evening before In a mystified maze of my brain Until a great light burst upon me at last, Ye gods I I'm in Alliance and off of the wagon again. F. S. K. State Senator Sibley was among the prominent visitors to Alliance during the stockmen's convention last week. The senator has been "mentioned" as, a possible contestant with Foxy Mose for the republican nomination for con gress in this district &t" ' Total $10,030.05 Four "tourist" printers have applied at this office for employment during the past week. They reported work slack all around. About twenty more work men were laid off at the railroad shops in this city last week. Monday morn ing the Burlington railroad dumped at this station over twenty so-called "ho boes" presumably workingmen who have lost their jobs. Aside from poli tics, there is a lesson here that all men whose daily bread depends upon their labor should seriously consider and that is Economy. Lay up a little for a rainy day, for you have no security against that day's coming. A Washington dispatch to the Omaha Bee says: "C. E. Thatcher of Alliance, Nebr., has been transferred from the office of the auditor of the war depart ment and made assistant chief of the new railroad rate board. Before com ing to Washington, Mr. Thatcher was in the employ of the Burlington railroad as train dispatcher at Alliance." Mr. Thatcher is a brother-in-law of F. W. Harris, of this city, and J. T. White head, of Mitchell. The Knights of Columbus entertained the members of the stockmen's associa tion, at their hall, with an interesting program last Thursday night. Ethel Nolan and Wm. Heelan gave recita tions that were creditable performances, and Miss Broome sang some enjoyble songs. Father McNamara delivered a short address which was eloquent and instructive. Mrs. J, J, Graining, who was taken to the Box Butte hospital recently, was operated on yesterday and is improving nicely'.
