You will nee that I am right when you read hia opinion of the Nebraska Senate, expressed in the following poem, which we pur loined from his debk one day lust week while ho wasn't looking: THE NEBRASKA SENATE I Just learned why the Senate don't work And why bo much leisure they seek, And why they adjourn on every Thursday night And go homo for the rest of the week. (Jus Beschorner says, and he ought to know, For he keeps the books over there, The enate he says is a great think ing body And must have rest from their care. They think, they think their think ing (It's hard to get this d m thing to rhyme) Thut the bookkeeper must have time to think, too. When he Hgurea up all the over time. I think, they think they must have plenty of time To ligure their dear friends all Jobs. It's not an easy matter to proportion it out To their Tom, Dick, Harrys and Bobs. It may be, as tho bookkeeper . has said. That this Senate is a great-thinking body And am figuring a way both early and late To get plenty of beer, wine and tody. Then it may be true, their brain is at work To stop some needed legislation, Or to get even with some fellow for what he has done. To some this is a great consola tion. It may be they intend, as often be fore, To let the sifting committee do all the work. Draw their check and go home, at the end of the game To their constituents, responsibil ity will shirk. But I am not going to say such things they would do, And their thinker is not thinking O. K. For u more qualified bunch I never expect to meet. That's what I think. G. W. J. Of course it's none of our business, but we just can't help wondering what there is about the female form that keeps some of our young girls from freezing on some of these par ticularly cold winter days. You un derstand, now, that we don't know a 1111111! about it. but we've been told jthal they just don't wear hardly any I thine. Why. only this week we i heard a girl say another girl was old I fashioned because she wore long- sleeved (pardon us) under-apparcl. She didn't say "apparel" either, hut It means that, and the girl who was talking about the other girl didn't have on that kind. Anyway she said she (lidn t. out she had on some hose that was fully as thick as a cigarette paper split twice. We can easily see hew a girl might powder her fare thick enough to keep it from freer.lnis, and since we don't know anything about them and it ain't any of our business, we just guess they powder rieht good and plenty all over and then put on a few clothes to keep the powder from blowing off "Robert, dear," she naid in her most insinuating tones, as they were passing one of the three drug stores along Box Butte avenue that serve sodas with a tempting array of fruits in syrup, etc., "did you read in the paper this noon about the newly-invented locomotive made to run by soda?" "No, 1 didn't," replied Robert, turning pale at the hint; "hut I am a good deal like that locomotive. Mary." "How so?" "Made to run by soda." And he did, because, you see, he hadn't the price of two sodas about his clothes. What is the most diflicuit train to catch? No. 4 2, east hound, depart ing at 12:40, because it is "twenty to one" if you catch it. If the newspaper should some day print the contents of its waste bas ket there would probably be a small riot. There certainly would be trouble in some homes, perhaps some arrests in one direction, shotguns in ! another, trouble all around. But tin- pat ron never sees the waste basket, he only glances at the beautifully printed page, and complains if two letters are transposed, growlcs if his name happens to be wrong, kicks be cause his communication signed "Taxpayer" has been condensed into respectable English, frowns because those on the paper did not take his advice about publicly telling their neighbors of their shortcomings, and is generally disgruntled. He knows his share of the waste basket, but if he could look at the contributions to that receptacle he would be thankful for the existence of newspaper men with intelligence and courage eunuch not to print all they know, and to temper that which he does print. If your hat could reveal the sec rets it covers, it would blush a bril liant scarlet. i There is more truth, than net ion in the "point" to this story, at least the writer has found it so. You know, there is one of those places right next door to the Herald otlice and the partition Is none too thick between. It goes like this: "It is very embarrassing, isn't it, Jennie," said a young lady to her ! friend, "when you are alone with your beau for the first time? When ; William escorted me home last night, we were so bashful that we could hardly find a word to say to each other." ' Indeed? I haven't found it so?" "You haven't?" "Not nt all. My beau talks all the time and doesn't give me the least chance to feel embarrassed. Why, he is an authority on so many sub jects." "He is a good tali er, then?" "Well, 1 should smile." "What does he do?" "He's a barber." "They're selling things cheap at Fleming's this week. George is in competition with the postmaster." "He is. eh?" "Yes, thirteen postage stamps for a cent and a quarter." "Why " "Same as at the postoffice twen ty-six cents. Ain't that a cent and a 1 quarter of a dollar?" , Don't we smoke on that? We have heard of ambitious wives of poor poets and preachers pound-' ing a rag to make the neighbors think they had beefsteak for break-' fast, but that tale is tame compared to this. Out in the north end of the city a young couple keep house In a, quiet sort of way. - The other day the husband went hone in the even ing, taking a friend with him to par take of the evening meal with thcin. That ought to entitle him to ten days, for the happy and unsuspect in gwife had a dainty dinner for two all on the table. ".My dear," said the head of the family, when his friend had said good-night and the door had been closed, "how was it that you had four big potatoes baked tonight? We never had more than two and you could not have known that I had company." "I didn't." "Yes, but you did, my dear. My friend ate one, you ate a half one and I ate the other half, and there were two left in the bowl." "Very true, my innocent," said the laughing wife, "but those that were left were as cold and raw as a March morning in New England. They were put there for appearance to fill up; and when you bring company home without tilling me again, I'll make you eat them that way." And then they say women don't know enough to vote! The average woman is a genius. EAT LESS AND TAKE SALTS FOR KIDNEYS Take a glass of Salts before breakfast if your Back harts or Bladder bothers yon.

CARD OI' THANKS We wish to express our thanks for all the kindness shown us by our friends during the recent illness and death of our beloved mother, Mrs. E. .1. Hicks. JOHN I. HICKS. EDITH L. Tl'RCOTT, GEO. E. HICKS, LCLA BAY LESS. ALLEN N. HICKS. KITT1E A. MARSH. DRINK A GLASS OF REAL HOT WATER BEFORE BREAKFAST. Says we will both look and feel clean, sweet and fresh and avoid illness. Sanitary science has of late made rapid strides with results that are of untold blessing to humanity. The lat est application of its untiring research is the recommendation that it is as necessary to attend to internal sanita tion of the drainage system of the hu man body as it is to the drains of the house. Those of us who are accusomed to feel dull and heavy when we arise, splitting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stom ach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy by opening the sluices of the sys tem 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 tenvoonfu of limestone phosphate In it to wash from the stom ach, liver and bowels the previous day's indigestible waste, sour bile and Iolsonous toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. The action of hot water and limestone phosphate on an empty stomach is wonderfully in vigorating. It cleans out all the sour fermentations, gases, waste and acidity and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast. While you are enjoying your breakfast the phosphated hot water is quietly extracting a large vol ume of water from the blood and get ting ready for a thorough flushing of all the Inside organs. Tho millions of iteople who are both ered with constipation, bilious ppells, stomach trouble, rheumatic Milfr.ess; others who have sallow skins, blood disorders and !ckly complexions are urged to get a quarter pound of lime stone phosphate from the drug store. This will cost very little, but is suffi cient to make anyone a pronounced crank on the subject of internal san itation, i L. A. II K R R Y LAWYER Phone 9 Room 0 Riuner Block Alliance, Nebraska- J.
