EVERYONE MUST HELP.
Wars cannot be fought without money, and upon the Treasury centers
every financial demand upon the Nation.
The rich of this country cannot alone meet the needs cf the Nation;
the men of the country cannot do It alone; the women of the country
cannot do it alone; but all of us. the people of the United 8tates disre

supremacy of r.ght and determining to vindicate the majesty of American
Ideals and secure th safety of America and civilization, can do the great
and splendid work which God has called upon us to do.

In llox liuttce County
Heniingford Lodger: A short time
ago C. RIempke paid a visit to his old
home town of Fremont, Nebr. Manv
Change had taken place in the town
since he had been there, he said, but
the three most remarkable things he
noticed were the court house, the
Pathfinder hotel, and the new "Wuit-on-yourself
store."
The old courthouse burned down
a couple of years aso and bonds were
voted for a new one. The newe one.
when completed will cost about $175.-
000. bue as compared to the Box
Hut tee county court house that cost
but less than half, he says the Box
ButtO courthouse iB so for ahead in
neatness, general appearance and con
BtructlOD that (to quote Mr. Klenip
ke) "It looks like a factory of some
kind, especially from the back. The
walls are straight up and down, with
no ornaments of any kind, and the
windows were thrown it t the building
and wherever they happened to stick,
the masons built around them. I told
them, he snid. 'If you want to see a
real court house conie west and see
oura.' "

Potato Sturch Factory
Proposed for Morrill
Morrill Mail: At the meeting in
the opera house Wednesday night i
Present to hear the potato starch
proposition talked over.
The speakers present were: A. W
Tell, county agricultural agent, Phil
Sheldon, the water users gopher and
grasshopper man, Mr. Holland dis
trict agricultural agent, and Mr How
ard, the potato man from the depart
ment ot agriculture of Nebraska.
A mistaken idea was given us In
tb advert iaemenl given to the papers
in the valley hist week, thai the OT
rn men! was putting up this factory
arhleb is not the case, as either local
or outside capital must be interested
in erecting and equipping the plant
which will cost In the neighborhood
of 118,096 complete. Accarding to
Mr. How, Md it will be no trouble to
"it, rest outside capital in the enter
prise That potato starch is in de
mand w is shown by the statement
that we import from Holland 50.000,
000 pounds of it yearly besides we get
some from Japan.
A committee of five were appointed
to further investigate this matter and
report to the people t.t as early a date
as they can. The committee is: O. F.
Cooke. J. O. Blssell. Win. Flint, H
C Karpf and K. Trnvis.

dub met with A. D. Bowen. of the
Boweu Klectrlc Motor company, nt
the club rooms .Inst Wednofldny even
inn and after hearinc his flop jsltion.
Which Is herewith rrlven, a committee
was appointed to investigate the mat
ter. With Instruction to report in the
regular meeting of the club next
Tuesday night, when ihe matter will
b taken up by the club and discussed.
BoWea proposes to orgnnize a com
pany with the object in view of build.
ing an electric railway between the
citlea of Scottsbluff and tiering. The
passenger fare to be charged is 10
cehta, cars to be run 18 hours in each
24, Baking a round trip every twenty
minuter,. A standard bridre is to be
built across the river, and as business
develops it is the intention of thej
company to extend the car lines out
into the beet raising section and also j
to Banner county. It is the further'
intention of the company to handle
freight between the two cities, which
would include local and carloads loK.
Arrangements can be mnde whereby
a car coming in on the Burlington
railroad for some one living In Oer
ing, said car can be spotted in Gering
by the use of the electric railway.
The government favors the build
ing of these roads, as it cuts down
man power and also enables the haul
ing of food and other commodities.1
Bowen proposes to organize the com
pany and take in with him those who
desire to become associated with the
originators of the plan. These men
are to buy $500 worth of stock at
3?, 1-2 cents on the dollar, the re-!
malnder of the stock to be divided as
follows: Bowen to receive one-half of
same for his work, the other one-half
to be given free with the purchase of
honds, that is, there will be $66,000
worth of bonds issued carrying 6 per
cent interest. These bonds will be j
SOld at par, each man that buys $200
worth of bonds receiving approxi
mately $100 of stock free. The idea
of issuing free stock would be an ex-
tra Inducement for the purchase of
bonds at par, the company to have
only one kind of stock and to be cap
italized at $100,000.
The committee appointed by the
commercial club to lnefltigate the
situation is composed of H. Leslie
Smith, chairman, Fred Roberts, Will
Morrow, Tom Green nnd Cullen
Wright.

To look one's best and feel one's hest
Is to enjoy an inside bath each morn
ing to flush from the system the pre
vious day's waste, sour fermentations
and poisonous toxins before it 1b ab
sorbed Into the blood. Just as coal,
when it burns, leaves behind a cer
tain amount of incombustible material
in the form of ashes, so the food and
drink taken each day leave In the ali
mentary organs a certain amount of
indigestible material, which if not
eliminated, form toxins and poisons
which are then sucked into the blood
tiirough the very ducts which are in
tended to Buck In only nourishment
to sustain the body.
If you want to see the glow of
neaunr bloom In your cheeks, to see
your skin get clearer and clearer, you
are told to drink every morning upon
arising, a glass of hot water with a
teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in
it, which is a harmless means of wash
ings the waste material and toxins
from the stomach, liver, kidneys and
howels, thus cleansing, sweetening and
purifying the entire alimentary tract,
before putting more food into the stom
ach. Men and women with sallow skins,
liver spots, pimples or pallid com
plexion, also those who wake up with
a coated tongue, bad taste, nasty
breath, others who are bothered with
headaches, bilious spells, acid Btomach
or constipation should begin this phos
phated hot water drinking and are
assured of very pronounced resultB In
one or two weeks.
A quarter pound of limestone phos
phate costs very little at the drug
store but ia sufficient to demonstrate
that Just as soap and hot water
cleanses, purifies and freshens the
skin on the outside, so hot water and
limestone phosphate act on the Inside
organs. We must always consider that
internal sanitation Is vastly more im
portant than outside cleanliness, be
cause the skin pores do not absorb
impurities Into the blood, while the
bowel pores do.
