We believe the. best arranged
and most convenient house we
have ever been in is the cottage
erected by C. H. Kindig. There
are six rooms and in addition a
bath room, pantry, closets, a big
basement well lighted, and two
large mantels, the back porch
being enclosed with screen wire.
The front porch extends oh three
sides of the parlor, in a circular
form. In the basement is a
small room made cyclone proof.
The carpenters work is not ex-
celled by any work in the coun
try. The house was plankjed by
Mr. and Mrs. Kindig with a view
to making a comfortable and
convenient home, and they cer
tainly succeeded in their plans.
The house completed will cost
about $2,300, but this does not
include much work done by Mr.
Kindig. Only the very best ma
terial has been used throughout.

Freak Election Bets.
Nertolu had her share of freak
election bets.
Curft Brown guessed wrong on
the result in Nebraska, and
thereforu will wheel Dr. Frazier
from the Quiller store building
to the livery barn, and back.
Dr. Frazier let his enthusiasm
for Bryan bias his judgment on
the national election and will
therefore wheel Hank Barker
over the same road as above.
George Hartwig is to whee
Frank Titus from the postoffice
to the corner of the Titus farm,
three-quarters of a mile west,
and return. George was too sure
Bryan would be elected.
Jimmy Stephenson was so sure
that Taf t would carry Nebraska
that he offered to stand on his
head in front of the postoffice if
the result was otherwise, and
will not back out.
All these bets are to be paid
Saturday afternoon.
