There’s Always a Season.
It is an easy thing to account for the
wonderful growth of the Daily State
Journal recently. Its price has been
reduced to 50 cents per month without
Sunday or 65 cents with Sunday. The
Journal has always been reliable and
honest, printing the news without fear
or favor. The people of Nebraska realize
that they need a paper published at the
capital, and when the price of the Jour
nal was reduced the subscription list
grew at a phenomenal rate. The Jour
nal is a Nebraska paper through and
through.
“Does she love music?” “M—yes;
but not enough to keep away from the
piano.”
There is no medicine so often needed
in every home and so admirably adapted
to the purposes for which it is intended,
as Chamberlain’s Pain Balm. Hardly a
week passes but some member of the
family has need of it. A toothache or
a headache may be cured by it. A
touch of rheumatism or neuralgia quiet
ed. The severe pain of a burn or scald
promptly relieved and the sore healed
in much less'time thau when medicine
has to be sent for. A sprain may be
promptly treated before inflammation
sets in, which insures a cure in about
one-third the time otherwise required.
Cuts and bruises should receive imme
diate treatment before the parts become
swollen, which can only be done when
Pain Balm is kept on hand. A sore
throat may be cured before it becomes
serious. A troublesome corn may be
removed by applying it twice a day for
a week or two. A lame back may be
cured and several days of valuable time
saved or a pain in the side or chest re
lieved without paying a doctor bill.
Procure a 50 cent bottle at once and
you will never regret it. For sale by P.
C. Corrigan, druggist.

“I would rather trust that medicine
than any doctor I know of," says Mrs.

No one can broaden his own views by

Every mother Bhould know that croup
can be prevented. The first symptom
of true croup is hoarseness. This is
followed by a peculiar rough cough. If
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is given
freely as soon as the child becomes
hoarse or even after the cough has de
veloped it will prevent the attack. 25

EXCHANGED HATS.
4 LokUtUIs Man Who Slandered About
nil Headgear.
“Well, sir," said a well-known Lou
isville man, “I had an embarrassing
experience recently. I invariably
sleep until the very last moment, and
then make a rush for the breakfast
table and the oar. That morning I
had but five minutes to get through
eating and catch the car that passed
my door. I fairly poked things down
my throat, and hearing the clang of
the motorman’s bell I made a rush for
the street As I passed through the
hall I snatched a hat that was hang
ing on the rack, and just reached the
corner in time. Then I dropped into
a seat and took the morning paper
from my pocket It was not long
until 1 heard a gentle tittering from
some dry goods clerks in the seats
behind me. They kept it up and
somehow I got an idea into my head
that they were laughing at me.
“After a while I,turned fiercely to
one of them and asked what it was
that seeraod to amuse him so. He
trembled and managed to gasp out
that I had on my wife’s hat. It was
even so, and there was one of these
long, gaudy, yellow pins that women
use to keep their headgear in posi
tion, sticking in it. I was so mad
that I jerked it off and threw it into
the street. Then everybody in the
car roared, and I felt truly furious.
When I reached a hat store I stepped
in and bought me a hat of the mascu
line variety. Several hours afterward
my wife dropped in at the store, and
she was wearing my hat. There was
a pin in the back of it, and the little
face veil swinging from the front,
but it was my liah . I didn’t say a
word, and that .woman is wearing it
yet. What bothers me is that every
body found out the joke on me, and
nobody has noticed it on her.’’
HIS OWN TAILOR.
A German Frlnee Teaches a Lesson to
the Officers.
The statement that the German em
press is in the habit of mending her
consort’s linen and darning his stock
ings is in parallel to a good story told
of Prince Henry, the kaiser's brother
and admiral of the imperial navy,
which reports that at an inspection of
the naval division under his command
the prince noticed that the men pos
sessed of private means exhibited only
new clothes, or such as had been very
little worn. Upon inquiry he heard
that these men bought new clothes
rather than patch their old ones. His
royal highness dispatched a messen
ger to the castle, who soon after re
turned with a suit of white duck,
wnieh Prince Henry unfolded before
the eiujmhrigen (gentlemen volun
teers).
The clothes were well worn and
neatly patched, and the prince ad
dressed his hearers as follows: “My
superior officers compelled me to re
pair my working suit when I served
my first term aboard as a ‘middy.’ I
4o not doubt that you have the means
to purchase a duck suit, and so has, in
fact, any sailor. But, gentlemen,
some of you expect by and by to be
come officers. How can you expect to
be entrusted with the property of
the country if you are not more care
ful of your own.” In this way Prince
Henry assists his brother, the kaiser,
in his crusade against extravagance
in army and navy, which has met
with very encouraging results and
has not been without influence on na
tional morals.
THE BALLOON CYCLE.
A French Army Means of Carrying
War Dispatches.
There floated over the hamlet of
Villeneuve-la-Garenne the other after
noon, in mid-air, a balloon. Suddenly
it appeared to burst and fell rapidly
toward the earth. Fearing that a
disaster had occurred the terrified
folk ran to the spot at which they ex
pected the aerostat would reach the
ground, when to their amazement
they saw a parachute detach itself
from the car and descend gently.
Immediately the earth was
touched - one of the passengers
jumped upon a small bicycle
which he had brought with him from
the aerial regions, and he disap
peared in the direction of Levallois,
in the neighborhood of Paris, as
rapidly as the machine could carry
him. The explanation of this singu
lar occurrence is simple. The bal
loon was the Caliban, and the ascent
was made from Levallois by Captain
Capazza and M. Iiervien, the latter
being the cyclist. Their object was
to test the possibility of a balloon
being used for carrying war dis
patches, and they assumed that an
enemy succeeded in destroying it.
Yet they proved that by means of the
parachute they would be able to
make good their escape and to out
distance their pursuers with the aid
of the portable bicycle.
The Latest In Music.
The very latest idea in music is the
sale of song's, sonatas and symphonies
by weight. According to a German
musical journal this strikingly origi
nal system has just been introduced
by a lierlin liovsi. A kilogramme of
songs costs about two and one-half
marks—about a shilling per pound,
l’iano music, whether for two or four
hands, runs a trillo higher, viz., three
marks the kilo. The symphony heads
the list at the uniform price of four
marks the kilo. The system, it ap
pears, docs not admit the allowance
of discount.
Four Year.4 Spent in Its Making.
A vase which has taken four years
to complete has just been sent to
London from a Minton manufactory.
It is valued at $1,500 aud is considered
the handsomest thing of the kind
that has ever been made. Venus,
Bacchus, and a group of cupids are
represented in the design.

Dec. 15.
••Whaf Darned Nonsense.”
"I see,” said the man who began
life at S3 a week and now owns a block
of tenements that haven’t seen a bit
of paint since they were built, “I see
that these here new five dollar silver
certificates are to have a lot of angels,
and chariots, and clouds, and things
engraved on them. What durned
nonsense. Why don’t they engrave
some bacon, and potatoes, and
clothes, and champagne wine, and all
that sort of thing that S3 can buy, and
have some meaning to their designs?
That’s what I’d like to know.”
A Mutual Sentiment.
Horace Oreeley once wrote a note to
a brother editor in New York, whose
writing was as illegible as Ills own.
The recipient of the note, not being
able to read it, sent it back by the
same messenger to Mr. Greeley for
elucidation. Supposing it to be the
answer to his own note, Mr. Greeley
looked over it, but likewise was una
ble to read it, and said to the boy:
“Go take it back. What does the
damned fool mean?” “Yes, sir,” said
the boy; "that is just what he says.”
11 umptjr- Dnmpty.
It is not generally known thai
"Humpty-Dumpty” was not originally
a nursery rhyme, but a political satire
at the expense of King James II. of
England—IIumpty-Dumpty being, of
course, James himself; the wall the
throne, and the king, whose men and
horses are in vain brought into requi
sition, Louis XIV. of France. It was
originally written in French; and
later the quatrain had the honor of
being'turned into Latin elegiac verse
by Dr. Henry Drury.
Fruit Jar..
The German custom of some one go
ing, in a state of nudity, at mid
night on Christinas-eve, to bind the
fruit trees with ropes of straw, or the
frugal housewives shaking the
crumbs from the table cloth around
their roots in order that they become
more fruitful, clearly points to the
mysterious influence attributed by
the ancient Germans to the time
of the Twelve Nights. In the Tyrol
the fruit trees for a similar reason,
are soundly beaten.
A Stone Marvel.
There is, on a mantel in one of the
residences of a Georgia family, a piece
of stone which bears a striking re
semblance to an ancient castle, the
turrets, massive doors and strong
foundations being distinctly marked.
The peculiar feature about the little
oddity is that to hold it under a gas
light gives the stone the appearance
of the building, with many lights re
flected from the windows.
Right Arm Paralyzed!
Saved from St. Vitus Dance.
“Our daughter, Blanche, now fif
teen years of age, had been terribly
afflicted with nervousness, and had
lost the entire use of her right arm.
We feared St. Vitus dance, and tried
the best physicians, with no benefit.
She has taken three bottles of Dr.
Miles’ Nervine and has gained 31
pounds. Her nervousness and symp
toms of St. Vitus dance are entirely
gone, she attends school regularly,
and has recovered complete use of
her arm, her appetite is splendid.” j
