Feb.l0-Marchl-dnc. ajawaJBVva)wi If you are on the outside please take a look within Fannie I Hurst Novelettes five you that opportunity. Just series of eight tories each complete in itself, showing how the other half of the world lives. You may net have given much thought to the little apprentice rail liner whe delivers a hat; t the girl selling odds and ends in a department store basement; to the gymnast who nightly performs a dangerous act in theater that he and bis family may have clothes and food. Such lives are too commonplace to suggest much of the romantic or the interesting. Yet to such come the greatest problems and the necessity for prompt, momentous decisions. To them love, either with happiness or the keenest of heart trials. They are susceptible to the same affec tions, hates, vanities and ambitions as actuate the remainder of the world. Let Fannie Ilurst, a master in ex tracting great stories from humble material, tell you about them. We shall print this series of novelettes in this paper. Watch for Them!

He was off and down the steps, clicking the gate behind Mm end clat tering smartly down the walk. Ills feet sprung echoes; she listened until they died, then turned to the room anln. the buck of her hand laid across her Hps. The kitchen clock ticked with ex pressionless and wooden regularity. The recently occupied carpet rocker and her own low chair were drawn toward the room In the casual attitude of en tetea-tete. She dragged them back Into place. The swinging lamp she detached from Its bracket and, holding It high above her head so that she walked In a flood of light, Lurried Into the little bedroom. On the floor beside the trunk and On the Floor Beside the Trunk and With a Great Spurt of Energy She Fell to Packing Her Little Handbag. with a great spurt of energy she fell to .packing her little handbag. A neighbor's dog hayed to the moon as It rose. The spring air took on the nip of late evening and came In boldly through the window. After s while a velvet and thick-napped si lence completely closed her la, and when she rose from her stiff knees the moon had got high. She could see it from the window. At ten o'clock she made a careful tour of the house. Memories like wild flowers sprang out from every corner. A steamer chair, bared of Its pniows and folded against the kitchen wall, set her to trembling. Tears would come. She dried them on her sleeve. Her own .room stripped of Its tittle trappings took on suddenly the dol-lar-a-day formality of a hotel room; the cold, cavernous formality which betrays its shifting world by no more than an occasional hairpin left rusting In an empty drawer; a screw-top flask gathering dust la the webby recesses of si closet shelf. She barred the front latch and, batte-d and gloved, tip-toed through the kitchen And out of doors, folding over tike grmn shuttrs, springing the ttolt In the woodshed, rattling the cel lar windows. On tho front lawn, wtiiteued with moonltght, the Iliac hiuh lifted its blooming heads bravely aga'iist itbe nip of the sir, and Its fragranoe, druglsh and full of sweet ness, wss dt'llt ate as the perfume of a love story. She held Its blossoms to her cU-ek aicd tears fell oo the cool leaves. . e a After a time she nisi a quick foray Into the bouse and out agittn with a folded sheet, whh'h she slupped open and with a great utralnlng of all her strength flnng It upward over the flowering bucli. In the center of the lawn it stood like a bulgy phantom. For a while she hung on tha white picket fence, straining her eyes to ward the lights of the town. She fell to crying silently. The moon-faced, nioon-colored tower cloek boomed eleven, each stroke wf.fting fr Its echo to die. CJreut hot waves were rac ing over her body and the walked s srace Into the shadows of the board sidewalk and back, always her head cocked in the attitude of listening. A train whistle hallooed straight up ward and like a rocket plerciftf the night. Refleily she stooped to her bag, which stood beside the gate, her eyes still probing the shadowed walk that led to town. Another halloo and through the bracken and sparse tlm berlaod behind the cottage she could see the checkered flash ef the lighted train wtndews aae s great plume of smeke that res ami died a the hoc- tuxas.) ttwlryw- It was as If she could feel the hot fanning breath of the coaches as they slowed, shrieking on their rails Into the station. The heavy engine throbs were like heart-beats and Its bell clanged agnlnst her temples. A cough ing of steam gouged out the silence. She stood listening. The minutes passed da she would push the beads down the thread of a rosary. Perdlta In her garden of mint and marigold shed no more scalding tears. a a a a From the depth of the bordered walk came the faint march of foot steps, reverberating through the blue hollow of the night. The engine bell clanged again and furiously and presently, without turning her head, through the bracken and tlmberland behind the cottage she could see the fluent motion of lighted train windows flashing pat. Came the footsteps now almost upon her, light-heeled and ringing, as If a soldier with new s;uirs on his boots were marching toward h: THE END. THE PARSON'S CORNER By Rev. B. J. Mirort, Pastor of the First Baptist Church, Alliance REFORMERS OR PERFORMERS? The other day a man came over to the parsonage and wanted the writer to fall in line with a plan laid out y the organization which he represented, regardless of whether the evils he pro fessed to fight existed in Alliance and Box Butte county or not. Now, we do not object to falling in line with any real progressive reforms, but we do resent having every Tom, Dick, and Harry running in on us with out warning, and asking us to set aside our plan of work in order to ac comodate this and that reformer. It seems that the land is very alive with reformers and wanting performers. These reformers are ever tryinr to en act thi? or that law, and revising this or that, or repealing this or that. They do not give you a chance to think any of their pet reforms over, but swoop down on you without any announce ment, and feel offended if you do not fall in line without asking questions- It seems that 90 per cent of the peo ple of this world are trvina: to reform the other 10 per cent. That this world needs improvement, no one has any doubt, but these cut and dried programs, prepared in an atmosphere wholly different from local conditions, and by men and women who profess to know more of the needs of your town than you do, although they were in it but twenty minutes, are of doubt ful value. In fact, our experience has been that practically all reforms that have ever been successful in the cities where we have lived have been fostered by local men. If the local men do not know the need of a town, and how to provide that need, then we doubt whether outsiders can put it across. So many of these non-resident reform ers put on an air of authority and holy indignation if you dare ask the why of things. Again, let me say we do rot object to co-operation in reforms with local organizations, but we do ouestion the risrht of an outsider insisting that we set aside plans that perhaps we have made for specific needs, and have them all knocked into a cocked hat to accomodate some one who wants to pet before the public. Why don't these men who have the intersct of their community at heart, at least notify us that they are on the way, thus givi -" ns at least a chance to prepare for tiem? The. writer has made it a habit to never allow his plans to be set aside even for the representatives of his own denomination, unless he is at least notified a reasonable time before they come. If they come unannounced, they take what we see fit t6 give them; if they have made a reasonable prepera tion they are given the floor. Again, we maintain that local re- fnnno fart K lnn0 hpt b local men. Recently one of these reformers so cal led said that "CO per cent oi tne gins who go wrong, go wrong through the moving picture Fhows." Well it may I m, but we doubt it; in fact, do not knlio,. it Ttipppfnre he urtred we should make a drive against the pic- . a M 1 i A tures. His only piea tor xne siaiemem was that the dim light encourages voung people to spoon in the dark. This may be in some cases, but we dare so., tv,nt u-oro nhlp to iudcre from reliable facts we would find that this is not the case. We will not be drag- HERALD WANT ADS Break colds with vapors The favored treatment now is a salve rubbed on, that ive8 off penetrating, healing fumes. Try the vaporizing treatment for colds Vicks VapoRub. At the first sign of a cold, ap ply Vicks over throat and chest. Rub well in. Lay on a flannel cloth. Apply again at night and arrange the bedclothes like a funnel, so that the vapors, released by the body heat, will be freely inhaled. This is the treatment favored today by doctors and nurses for colds, bronchitis, tonsilitis, Just rub it on and breathe in the vapor god into such a non-essential reform movement. That there are evils con nected with moving pictures, we will not deny, but we do deny that they are with the pictures, but with the folks' tendency who tro there. If thev have evil design, they will find it, if nut they will not. I. personally, do not anmove Sun day pictures, but I shall not try to do away with them for this cause alone. We attend occasionally, and we have wutched for these so-called indecent acts, but found none so far. Now. I am not savin? that the nic- tures are the sonum-bonum of life, out I do deny that as they are conducted in this town they are conducive to im morality. In Omaha perhaps they are so, I know not. Before we attack any local institution we want to see the infraction of morals, and be certain that we shall not base our case upon hearsay. We have received invitations to at tend dances. Some day or evening, we will, but it will be for the purpose of getting an exact view or the exact condition of things, and with the idea of suggesting remedies, or perhaps to sugpest sending the victim to the orpiit hevonri because he is bevond cure. Who knows? Let us have more performers and less reformers. lt us, Alliance people, reform conditions In Alliance and not call on outsiders who know little or nothing of local conditions. Performing, not reforming, is the great need. Wanted 100-lb. stock pigs. O'Bannon & Neus- wangcr. ion Herald Want Ads Results, LET ME CURE r.

TASH, (Seal) County Judge Feb.l4-March7-Inc. Old Marriage Cuotoms. The custom of sprinkling grain tip. on the bridal pslr was In enrly use among the Semitic peoples. With them grain was a symbol of frultfulress, and the Jews considered fruit fulness In marriage the greatest blessing that could be grunted them. In ancient Persia In Tnliniidlc times fruits and flowers were strewn In the path of the pair, and they were showered with barley, which had been planted In S pot shortly before the wedding. In Englnnd the use of wheat at marriages continued for many centuries, and un der the Tudor kings brides bore wheat sheaves on their heads, the grain was scattered over Ihem and garlands made of wheat, finely gilded, were carried by the chief maidens of the district In ti e hrhle's procession to the church. The custom of seat terlng grain over bridal couples was also observed or. the continent of Eu rope, .
