Lloyd's Column
Homo Job from the Force
The Herald force baa handed "ye
editor" of thia column some Job dur
ing the coming session of the state
legislature. Christmas morning we
were confronted by the entire force
In a body and handled a fine Water
man fountain pen, around which
whs wrapped the following Inscrip
tion: "To our boss and friend, Lloyd.
Compliments of The Herald force.
May your eloquence flow from your
lips at the coming session of the leg
iHluture us readily as we hope, it to
flow from this pen, which you will
use to pen your name to the Bcroll of
fan:e within the next three moTiths."
It Is needless to say that we appreci
ate the One present but as to elo
quence from pen and lips that is
doubtful, '
Tlie Km I lies Quest
Yes, the village was there, jSut, oh,
how 'changed!
In the two-score years and more
Since he'd pressed the turf of the vil
lage green
In those boyiqu sports of yore.
Yes, the village was there, but mem
ory b eye
Looked In VAlh for objects sought,
Though ne'er forgot thru the long,
long years,
.These many changes had wrought.
Yes, the village was there, but not
the old forge,
Down at tho'foot of the hill;
For gone was the hill, and the forge
Was" gone.
Gone Us old neighbor the mill.
One spot he sought hope lightened
the quest, ,
But left him sad and forlorn;
For alas, and alas, no trace remain
ed Of the house where he was born.
To the churchyard tje wended his
way '
Just then he awoke 'twould seem
At his home afar, toward the setting
sun,
So his quest was only a dream.

Not Much the Matter
Bank Stewart, of Doadwood, S. I).,
well known in this vicinity, felt that
Bomcthing was, wrong with his inter
ior department; Just what he knew
not neither did physicians whom he
consulted put him wise, so he went
to the famous Doctors Mayo, at
Rochester, Minn., and concerning his
condition wrote a letter to Dr. Barr,
under date of Dec. 11, as follows:
"Dear Doctor: I arrived here
Thursday night and got busy the fol
lowing morning. So far I have been
through the hands of four doctors
and they have decided 1 . ..
"That my exhaust is entirely, too
far fro.n my intake.
"That my valve stem Is badly
worn.
"That I need new piston rings as
my compression is poor.
."That my manifold is too small
for the Hlze of'iny clyinder, which
causes lack of power.
"That my muffler Is all clogged
with root, but that can be easily rem
edied by readjusting my etirburetor
and giving me a good dose of castor
oil. Tliis was caused 'by using too
rich a mixture. ,
"That my radiator leaks.
"That my valves need grinding
which they will proceed to do tomor
row morning.

Time to Sell
A farmer once asked the editor of
a country paper for some advice. He
wrote:
I have a horse that at times ap
pears, normal, but at other times is
lame to an alarming degree. What
shall I do7"
I he reply came: "The next time
that your horse appears normal, sell
nini.

Staggered Him
mere is a stammering physician
out In one of our suburbs. A short
time ago, while on a case involving
a new arrival, his infirmity led to a
ramer tunny njisannrehenslon.
The husband and prospective fath
er, wno Dy the way. had sot his
neari on a son and heir, was nerv
ousiy pacing tho library when the
pnysician entered.
"Well, doctor." said the hllshu nil
luri-uiK a smue, "is it twins?"
"Tr-tr-ti- " began the doctor.
"Triplets! Great Caesar."
'.'Qu-qu-qu " stammered the doc
tor.
"Quadruplets!" Holy smoke."
iN-ii-no. cried the doctor. "On-
qu-quite the contrary. Tr-tr-try to

One of the most Insnirinir unnoti.
cles to bo wltnebsud here is that of a
young, ambitious, self-made couple,
Btrong on team work, happily plan
ning and practically striving for the
building of a home of their own. It
may be but a small lot which they
huy, ou paymeuts. at a modest price.
It may be a tiny bungalow that they
dream about as their nest, one that
a-reful management brings within
the range of their possession. But
there is song on their llpsand there is
Joy in their hearts as they toll and
sacrifice to acquire this blessed hea
ven. There is bo much of this kind of
home puanntng and home building
heie that it carries this land nearer
to heaven. IT radiates bliss. Even
the crubtfest cynic Is softened at the

to them are to be EJen restored to

T--v of our girls likes to be
at beautlful'as she can. That Is right
and proper, but she must, remember
Blgbt of a Joyous couple fashioning
tfint it Is not alone the smile of the
pretty fnce, the tint of the delicate
complexion, the luring glance of the;
eye, the beauty and lymmetry of the
p. r.ton, nor the costly dress or decor-'
ntions that compose a girl's Joviness. i
It is far more to be found In her
pleasing deportment, her chaste con-1
versation, the sensibility and purity,
of her thoughts, her affable and open i
disposition, her sympathy with those
in adversity, her comfort and relief)
to the" distressed, and aoove all, her .
real companionship, that constitute
true loviness.
Look and Feel ,
Clean, Sweet and
Fresh Every Day
Drink glass of real hot water
before breakfast to wash
out poison.
I-
Life is not merely to live, but to
live well, eat well, digest well, work
well, sleep well, look well. What a
glorious condition to attain, and yet ,
how very easy It is if one will only
adopt the morning Inside bath. !
Folks who are accustomed to feel
dull and heavy when they arise, Bpllt '
thig headache, stuffy from a cold, foul
tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach,
ran, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy
by opening the sluices of the system
each morning and flushing out the
whole of the Internal poisonous stag
nant matter. !
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or'
well, should, each morning, before
breakfast, drink a glass of real hot
water with a teaspoouful of limestone
phosphate In It to wash from the
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the
previous day's indigestible waste, i
sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus '
clennslng, sweetening and purifying ,
the entire alimentary canal before -putting
more food into the stomach, .j
The action of hot water and limestone '
I hosphate on an empty stomach la
wonderfully Invigorating. It cleans
;ut all the sour fermentations, gases, j
waste and acidity and gives one a
plendld appetite for breakfast. While
ou are enjoying your breakfast the
.vater and phosphate Is quietly ex- 1
tractlng a large volume of water from 1
the blood and getting ready for a
thorough flushing of all the Inside
organs. (
The millions of people who are
bothered with constipation, bilious
spells, stomach trouble, rheumatism;
others -who have sallow skins, blood
disorders and sickly complexions are
urged to get a quarter pound of lime
stone phosphate from the drug store
which will cost very little, but la
pufflclent to make anyone a pro
nounced crank on the subject of
.ternal sanitation.

Impress Representatives with
the Mauy Itounis and
Cross I tars I
Lincoln, Nebr., Jan. 3 Prepara
tions were completed tor the recep
tion of the legislative members. The
impromptu engineering effect of the
representative hall has the appear
ance or a suDterranean tunnel, with
its network of beams and cross bars
extending from the floor to the ceil
Ing. But it is safe and sane as the
democratic administration, and that
is saying a lot.
According to a report filed by the
siaie auditor to be a nart of the bi
ennial report for 1915-16. the bond
ed indebtedness of the state, com
prising county, precinct, city and village,-school
district, and drainage
and irrigation bonds, amount to $42-
id.is.U7. or this sum Douglas
county has more than half of the to
tai, or 122. 536,631. 24. Some of
these bonds draw 4 per cent, a good
snare 5 per cent, while not a few
draw as much as 6 per cent annual
interest. At an average of X Der
cent, which Is conservative, the an
nual interest on this bonded indebt
edness amounts to $2.n07.709.90.
This emu is equal to practically tvo-
tuiras or the amount of revenue de
rivea from the annual taxation for
state purposes. The state govern
ment itself has no bonded indebted
ness, and as stated above, thitfe bond
obligations are for county and dis
trlct purposes.
Supt. A. O. Thomas is busy get
ting his office affairs in shape to turn
tnem over to his successor. Dr. W.
11. Llemmons. who came romnine
in under the wire 1302 laps ahead
of all entries in the late political cat
aclysm. During the two years that
Dr. Thomas has filled the office of
state superintendent he has inaug
urated a nu Lbet of valuable reforms
and has laid the foundation for oth
ers that will ultimately be of great
value to the educational interests of
the Btate. ' He has been a careful,
painstaking official putting all the
energy of his splendid natural and
educational talents into the work.
Dr. Clennuons Is a worthy successor,
having spent his life -as an educator
in nearly every department of learn
ing, and his labors extend from the
lower grade schools to that of the
head of a large college.
In a report fllod with the governor
to be presented to the legislature,
Attorney General Willis E. Reed will
ask for an appropriation of $249,000
to be used by his department for the
incoming biennlum. Mr. Reed wants
$100,000 to be used if necessary in
enforcing the prohibitory amend
ment. The last legislature appro
priated $49,180 for salaries and oth
er purposes for the attorney gener
al's department. In addition to the
above sum, Mr. Reed wants $50,000
for expenses connected with railroad
cases. For the prosecution or recal-

That there will be some changes
in departmental affairs when the leg
islature meets next month Is quite
certain. There is evidence of an al
most unanimous Bentiment in favor
of the consolidation of the hotel
commission with the food, fruit and
oil department, and as there seems
to be no one clamoring for the posi
tion which has been filled by Com
missioner Ackerman for the pnst
four years it Is surmised that Gov
ernor-elect Neville also favors the
cnnanllilalUn A..11 .,j
VUww..ua.v.vu. nuuiuci consolida
tion which would meet with the ap
proval of a good many is the print
ing commission with some other de
partment. This is being strongly
advocated not only as a matter of
economy, but efficiency as well.
However, from present Indications
considerable opposition to thi8 plan
will develop if the consolidation is
attempted. E. A. Walrath. who has
been the very efficient commissioner
for the past two years, has given no
tice that be does not want the Job
any longer, and Governor-elect Ne
ville has appointed Dan Webster of
the St. Paul Phonograph to the Dlace.
Even If the .consolidation was affect
ed some practical 'man would have
to be secured to take charge of the
work, and it is not at all likely that
Mr. Webster's appointment would be
Jeopardized if such action were tak
en. On the other hand if the new
governor should oppose the .consoli
dation it Is probable that the legis
lature would respect bis wishes In
the matter.
