If Invention Is tlio child of necessity it Is nlso the linmlninld of economy,
nd the unpretentious yet homelike cottage here presented Is designed espe
clally to provldo n complete dwelling for a family of average size and restricted
capital. Every foot of space Is utilized to advantage, and. as will he Been lu
the floor plans, all the rooms nre comfortable In size as well as conveniently
related ono to the other. This last feature can he claimed especially for the
main floor, where thore are no angles to turn when going from room to room
and no uullghtcd nooks or corners. The rooms on the second floor nil open
convenient to the landing, and the guest chamber Is by Itself, taking up the
whole front of the house. The wide poich stands open to sunshine and breezes
mid in the milder scnsoti Is really an additional room. Inclosed lu winter
with wide sash It would make a sun parlor If given southern exposure. The
width of the structure as planned Is twenty-throe feet and the length twenty
eight feet six Inches, Including porch, which Is formed by the overhung of
the second Htory. The flrst story rises nine feet clear and the second story
eight feet. The finish throughout may he Washington fir, and the cost will
not be much nbove $'.2,500. exclusive of heating and plumbing fixtures. Tho
cost would be reduced somewhat by finishing the second story In pine.

Homestead
Little Lillie Ryan, child of John Ryan,
met with a very painful accident while
riding after the cows one evening last
week, Her horse fell with her, dislocat
ing her arm at the elbow. Her father
succeeded in pulling it into place again
and no seribus trouble resulted.
A .son of Mr. and Mrs. Shetler from
South Dakota is visiting his parents and
brother, Ralla.
Not until a few days ago did we hear of
the arrival of a new girl in the home of
Mr. and Mrs. Kelly, over near Curly.
They got her in time to help them cele
brate the 4th, arriving on the 3rd. Jim
announced to us today that he had "a new
dish washer."
A glorious old rain in this vicinity last
Saturday brought our crops out of the
realm of uncertainty and made us all re
joice. To some the storm brought hail
stones as large as a ben's egg and did con
siderable damage to their crops. Among
them were Perry Ball, J. S. Thorp, Wal
ter Scott, Geo. Jones, et al. It is reported
by one who was there that hail stones
broke through the roof at Mr. Thorp's. It
sounds a little "hally" but we believe it
because our informant said so.
Louie Walters, our thrifty young neigh
bor, (no longer a bachelor,) was the first
ot our number in this vicinity to get into
the hay field, and got there with both feet
the first day after the 4th,
Carpenter "Uncle Billy" Burke is help
ing A, D. Weir build his house this week.
Uncle Billy knows how to do the work as
well and satisfactorily as many of our
$3a-day carpenters of these days.
We regretted to see Grandma Shetler
looking very feeble last week, but hope
she may soon be stronger.
Friend Wallege, we are told, is at Mars
land this week undergoing an operation of
a serious nature. It seems that everyone
from this section in need of a surgeon's
care or an operation, pulls for Marsland.
It must be that little Dr. up there is a
cracker-jack.
We don't want to be reckoued with the
knockers but can't help wondering why
barbed wire is only $3.25 per cwt. in
ScottsbluH and $3.65 in Hemingford. The
homesteader needs the difference.
Some of those showing real and charit
able kindness to the needy in our neigh
borhood the past few days were Mrs. .
G. Boyer, Mr. and Mrs. Thorp, Mr, and
Mrs. Kauffman and Mr. Shetler, sr. We
ought also to mention Mr. Bourk, Geo.
Jones, Ed. and Leonard Leathers and Mr.
Kelly, who left important work at their
homes and went to build a house for our
crippled friend, McBride, last Tuesday,
This corner of Sioux county was repre
sented in Hemingford one day last week
by the following named homesteaders,
who brought out large loads: Lovell, posts
and wire; Wagoner, posts; Kauffman, lum
ber; Weir, lumber; Lockwood, supplies
for Canton store; and one or two others
whose names we didn't get. Not so bad
for one day's showing from among the
Kinkaidera.
We're glad to see hopeless old Box Butte
county, of years in the dark past, booming
and so rapidly gutting neck and neck with
the best counties in Nebraska in so many
ways that go to make banner counties and
booms that never come off. We know
that it is her soil and her people, who are
doing the work, and equally well do we
know that our own Sioux, her neighbor on
the west, is next in the line to her. In
fact, our soil and people are just as good
and our grass so much better, that develop
ment equal with that of our neighbor is
inevitable. It is only a matter of a little
time.
Garfield Ball's family spent the day with
Mrs. Miller Friday last.
. G. Boyer has been on the Platte for
several days looking for a colt that he lost
down there a week or two ago.
There's plenty of news around Home
stead usually, but we haven't time to get
out and run it down. M. Space.
With the coming of "dog days" it is
perhaps well enough to reiterate the
sensible warning of a Philadelphia
physician to those who fear hydropho
bia. "Don't get scared to death," he
says. Fear plays a most important
part in this dread disease. Persons
have been known to die from what
they believed to be rabies after having
been bitten, when it was subsequently
ascertained that the animal was not
mad. There are two good rules to ob
serve as to dogs. First, don't get bit.
ten: second, if vou are bitten, don't pst

excited. Consult a reputable physi
cian, take the proper precautions, and
then forget it.
