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.

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.

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.
