IIo makes a specialty of city property but ho operates all over the western country, too. Ho is nlao a bonded abstractor, handles all kinds of insurance and Mr. Temple has achiuvctl marked success at ovcrything to which he ever appliod himself.

Thoro nro somo photographers who nro merely mochunlcul in their work and othors who are genuine artists and Mr. Von Goetz is surely In this IntteV class. Honco his pictures satisfy the most critical and his mountings aro tho latest and best. There is nothing in photography with which ho is not famil iar and his work is known far beyond North Platte.

Chiropractic is the art, science and philosphy that has thoroughly tested and proved that disease is caused by the interruption of mental impulses as thoy pass through tho nerves at the intervertebral foramina where tho vertebrae are not In perfoct alignment with eaeh other. Such conditions are called subluxations which impinge tho nerves that pass out through these openings thereby Inter fering with the mental impulses and consequently causing disease in tho organs or tissue in which the nerves end.

While inspecting the lcadinglndustrics of North Platte in the various lines we were at once attracted by this establish ment which is indeed a great credit to the city. Wo would in fact expect to find such n laundry plant only in much larger town than ours. The building is n well constructed cement nnd atone building, pleasing to U.e ye and we might add an ornament to the town. It is owned and occupied exclusivity by Mr. DlckoV and bis Sanitary Steam Laundry. There are twelve persons em ployed here; every part of the estab lishment ia lightsome, well ventilated and sanitary throughout nnd here we find the very latest nnd up to date machinery. Every package ib returned without a scratch, tear or burn, the delivery nnd collection system is oxcel lont nnd patronage ia growing right nlong. No chemicnls ure used tnit would harm tho choicest, most delicate fabric nnd we do not think that the laundry work done hero cou'd bo sur passed in Chicago, New York or San Francisco. The help aro high grade nnd wo note that an automobile is used in the delivery and collections. The Eeople of North Platte get tho very est in the laundry way from Dickey, tho charges nro fair and squaroand Mr Dickey is a top notch business man, the right kind of a citizen and nlways a pusher for North Platte. He has a largo personal and business acquaint ance and is strictly all right every day in tho ycai Howard R. McMichael, Contractor and Builder. There are contractor and contrac tors but we desire to point out thoso who aro thoroughly responsible, do a large business una are well thought of generally. Mr. McMichael hns bson here many years and every building he puts up represents tho maximum of value. IIo knows all about tho contracting and building business and when your con tract Is In his hands, you do not havo to worry a particle. Ills word is never broken and ho gives you just what the specifications call for. Ills reputation rests on the solid founda tion of honest, effective service," fair and bquare prices, and up to date ideas and no contractor or builder In this part of the state can be trusted more fully. His planing mill Is equipped with all necessary machinery and Mr. McMichael is ono of our most energetic men. He will not do a poor Job at any price as ho considers his reputation as his best asset and hoalways puts through all his work In tho most satisfactory manner pos sible. Among tho lino residences ho has put up wo would einphaslzo the Derryberry, Tramp, Iioxic and others of this class and ho also so erected tho Public Library and Baptist church. Mr. McMichael has done well here because hi Is a top uolcher lu every dfiiattin'Mil of ti.it uiulriii'llng and bulldln, liisini'ss, in square in eer way, and ranks among our hustling and honorablo citizens who are always in favor of putting our town and countv a notch or so higher. IIo Is well worthy of confidence at any and all times. A. E. Huntington, Contractor and Builder. No man earns his living more honestly than the contractor. He works with his mind ns well as his hands and builds happy homes that shelter happy families. There is no more useful citizen in a community and in drawing attention to tho lending contrncti rsand builder of North Platte and Lincoln countj, we wish to say a good woid for our pioneer in this line, Mr. A. B. Huntington. This gentleman has boon with us since 187U und his record in thia community hns been nn honorable and successful one. His craftmnnship is excellent in every respect nnd Mr. Huntington has always given one hun dred conts in value for every dollar ho ever roceived. He can givo youpointeis and hinta of great vuluo when you aro going to build and he has erected scores nnd we might say nundreds of t.uiidings of all kinda in this part of the statu. Among the fine homes he put up should be mentioned the Payne, Crydorman, Coates, Cox, the three htory dormitory at the state experimental farm and he nlso had tho contract for tho .v orsch block. His shop is well equipped; the befit tools are used and he k. i p3 up with tho prrcssion in every w i. Mr. Huntington 13 absolutely hornet in his dealings, very competent in his line and his standing in every respect is very creditable. No contract ia too big for him to undertake and he has always plenty of work on hand. Korth Platte Produce Company E. A. Stensvad and G. C. Tomisl r. Proprietors. Wholesale Poultry and Eggs. 422 W. Front St. Specialty Fancy Dressed Poultry. Thia is n home industry that is "making good" in every respect and it is proving an important addition to the business interests of North Platte. Therefore we desire to recommend it in these pages. We needed just such an institution and Messrs. Stensvad & Tomiska havo shown they are the right men in the right place.

They deal fairly and liberalh with ono and all nnd the success of these gentlemen shows what can he done in North Platte by the right kind of folks with tho right kind of an en terprise.

Stens vad & Tomiskn aro to be congratulated on their success and they are "liye ones" nnd straight as a string at all times. Hartman Cigar Factory. As this special edition is devoted mainly to the boosting of homo indus tries in our town and county, we will lay special stress on tho importance of this cigar manufacturing establishment. It is doing n large business but the reason is plain. Mr. Hartman is a high class man in the line, knowing every end of the business and his goods chal lenge comparison with the best. He hni a large outside as woll as local trade, shipping B3 far ai Rawlins. Wyoming una Grand Island nnd though Mr Hart man appreciates his large home trade, still, we venture to think there are still too many out side cigars okl hero His brands, LnSecutidad in four aires. Elk, Statement and Elmo, represent the limit of value for the price and hi1 fnctory is sanitary throughout, his staff working at the prevailing wage and under ttie best conditions. No less than eighteen nro employed and there is no home industry more worthy on its merits of liberal support When vou deal here, vou got as gnu if not better value than by patronizing the outsider, your money remains hero to help the town and indirectly you get bnclc part of it and there is no better way to help the city nnd attract new entorpnaes thnn by generous patronage of those already here. Mr. Hartman operates his factory in just tho right way, fulfills all "the duties of goou citizenship nnd ho ia win ning becnuso he delivers the goods and is on the square three hundred and sixty-five days in the year. The yearly output for 1912 was 900. 000, thia year he will double almost. The pay roll from between $200 and $250 a week. The Owl Cafe, Mrs. Ida Lemon. In writing up the hotels and res taurants of North Platte nnd Lincoln county wo wish to aay a good word for this cafe as it does a iarge business apd you are well served hate in every respect. We would point out that only white help are employed and the entire es tablishment is kept as neat and clean as a pin. Only the best is put on Mrs. Lemon's tables and the list of customers is in creasing fast. This lady understands every detail of the business from kitchen to cashier's drsk and onco you begin patronizing the Owl you will have no reason to change. Here we get tho good things that "mother used to put up'wand the ser vice is prompt and courteous. Regulur meals and short orders aro served and cleanliness is tho order of the day here. Many traveling men pacronize the Owl and a large local transient trade is likewise done. Mrs. Lemon ia an industrious Indy, business-like and always on hand her self to see that the Owl is properly conducted and we are glad to note sho is making a success ol her efforts. Tho Owl will nletise tho most partic ular and we v. ou'd err poaMze the fact that prices ate ilwuis moderate, therefore wo take pleasure in recom mending this establishment.

Tho wonderful strides that photog raphy, eapecinlly motion photography or tho production of moving pictures has made in recent years is equaled only by electricity. Moving pictures reveal to the scientific searcher of earth nnd sky many wonderful truths. They bring to us beautiful nnd interest ing things of different lands and pre Btivr with fidelity the scenes, forms anu .. Lures We lovo so well.
