"Prices of foodstuff in the United
States will mver go down again," is
the cheerful prediction mndo by Assis
tant Secretnry of Agriculture Hayes.
"Jim Hill is no croaking raven; ho is
right," said Mr. Hays. "While Mr.
Hill has been warning us for years of
the inevitable increase In the coat of
living, we believed him, but kent still.
He had the nerve to talk; we didn't."
Tho first prosecution under the full
train crew law will bo 'started Bhortly
ngalnst the Rock Istnnd railroad. Tho
State Railway Commission has certified
to tho attorney general that this road
on trains 7 and 8 has used the porter
as n flagman, and also caused the
brakeman to act ns flagman. Tho pen
alty for a violation of this law is n fine
of from $100 to $1,000, and it runs not
only against the company, but against
the officials who arc responsible.
Tho Nebraakn senators arc of one
mind with the president wiih regard to
postal savings banks. Senator Brown
has already conferred with President
Taft and given assurauce of co-operation,
and Senator Burkctt has rein
troduced his postal savings bill, with
some changes to make it conform to
tho measure that was shaped up by
tho senate last winter. Tho fate of
the mcasuro Is uncertain, but Senator
Burkett is confident that President Taft
will bo able to got Aldrich and Cannon
into line to the extent that they will
pormit it to pass. Kearney Hub.
Sooner or latter tho man who lets
his cattlo run in tho Btaik fields is
bound to have a loss. The only un
failing iu!e for preventing corn stalk
disenne is not to pasture. But it may
be questioned if all losses equal one
fourth tho gains mndo by pasturing
stalk fields. For that reason farmors
will keep right on letting cuttle huve
th Vun of tno fields when the corn is
out. Some of the cattle dio from im
paction of the stomach and these
might have been saved if plenty of
water and salt had been at hand,, but
veterinarians arc ugreed tint n specific
poison Is often present in the stalka
and against this danger is no known
remedy. Missouri Valley Farmer.
After dancing continuously for four

tho fif ty-threo couples who started in a
"marathon" waltz contest at Butto,
Mont., were stopped by officers acting

Six of the crirl contestants had been

spectators who crowded tho hall.
Tho nurso offered In tho cominir bat-
tie between Jeffries and Johnson is
$101,000, the largest amount ever
"hung un" for such nurnoso. Tho win
ner will receive npproximntoly $03,000
for threo hours' fighting, or $21,000 an
hour. Tho hourly incomo of John D.
Rockefeller is placed at $3,040, or somc-
uung over one-soventn or tno reward

posed to receive $2,105 every sixty
minutes, wlillo Caruso gets $050 and
Edward VII $250 for tho same neriod.
But, as if this were not enough, the
mun who earns $63,000 fur three hours'
battlo will nlso rcccivo tho lion's share
of at least $200,000, estimated as tho
vaiuo of tho movinu picture receipts
His total earnings may, therefore,

If there aro those who havo taken

Are Yon Sure Your Kidneys are Well?
Many rheumatic aHacka are due to
uric ncid in the blood. But the duty of
the kidneys is to remove nil uric acid
from the blood. Its nresence thro
shows the kidneys nrc inactive. ., -y.
uon't daily witn "uric ncia sol
vents." Youmichttro on till dooms
day with them, but until you euro tho
kidneys you will never get well. Donn's
Kidney Pills not only remove uric acid,
but cure tho kidneys and then all
danger from uric acid is ended. Here is
North I'latto testimony to prove it.
Mrs. C. J. Bowen, W. Sixth St,
North Platte, Neb., says: "During the
past six cars I suffered terribly from
uackackc. rheumatism and disordered
kidncyfl. A constant, dull ache through
my back and loins caused me untold
misery and any sudden move or mlstep
would bring on sharp, t hooting pains
that radiated from my kidneys to nil
parts of my body. I was greatly an
noyed by headaches and to Kot up
quickly from n sitting or stooping
position would bring on n dizzy spell.
A few months ago a friend told mo of
tho benefit she hnd obtained from tho
uso of Donn.R Kidney Pills. I followed
her advice and procured tho remedy at
A. F. Streltz's drug store. In a snort
time after beginning its use I felt
better and the backaches and other
symtoms of my trouble soon disappear
ed entirely."

This is the cleanly white nnd blue

we sell SEALSIIIPT OYSTEP.S at
our store. No ico or wnter ever
touches the oysters.
It is tho final step in the Senlshipt
System which makes it possible for
us to furnish our customers with
oysters which taste exactly the same
hero as when eaten at the shore.
They are firm, tempting and delic
ious morsels of Ben food .

You will bo surprised when you
see Sealshipt oysters. More sur
prised and delighted when you
taste them.
In buying Sealshipt oysters, re
member that there is no "liquor"
nothing but solid meat. The "liq
uor" is what spoils common oysters.
It is melted railroad ice.
If you ordinarily buy oysters by
the quart, get only a pint of Seal
shipt. Come into our store nnd see our
silent salesman. When here ask
for a copy of our book "Seaside
Oyster Dishes." It gives many
short receipts.
