SOAK YOUR FEET
INSTEAD OF HEAD
A Simple Remedy for tlie Grip
Said to Be Effectual.
\ \
NO NASTY “DOPES”
« —
Not a Patent Medicine Wonder—
l Bucket of Hot Water Does
* ■ the Bnsiness.
The following cure for the grip was
recently published in a religious weekly
over the signature of one of the editorial
staff and is no doubt a success:
“The grip can be so effectually broken
up that no one need be injured by it,
nor necessarily confined to the house
longer than to put himself through the
treatment And the treatment is s<>
simple that it is within the reach of
everybody; and it is so easily applied
that anyone can give it to himself if
need be. And here it is:
“1. As soon as you discover that you
have the grip, put your feet, and up to
the knees if possible, in water as hot as
can be borne.
“2. Keep the water as hot as can be
borne by putting in boiling water,
“3. Continue this till perspiration is
started. At the same time it is helpful,
though not essential, to sip hot lemon*
ade,
'‘4. When perspiration has been well
started, take out your feet, dry them
quickly, wrap them in hot flannels, and
lie down with hot-water bottles, hot
bricks, or something of the kind, at
^ your feet.
"5. Lie there till you choose to gel
up; and the grip will be killed. You
will probably be too weak to do much:
but as the grip is gone your .strength
will soon return.
Now do not pass this treatment by as
too simple to be followed, and go to
taking medicine, or even a full bath.
Follow these directions strictly, simple
as they appear, and you will find the
grip effectually broken.
“1 know this because I have thor
oughly tested the treatment. I have
tested it while on a journey, when 1 had
only poor facilities, yet with complete
success. I have tested it in a country
cabin, within fifteen miles of the Rus
sian border, in the month of Deoember,
on an attack of the grip straight from
Russia, and undiluted; and with such
success as to m!ss but one sermon in a
series of appointments. And others
have applied it with equal success.
“There is true philosophy in it. And
the philosophy lies here: The grip, at
its seizure, is peculiarly a disease of the
head. Plainly, therefore, if the blood
can be drawn away from the head, so
that the disease shall have nothing to
feed on, the grip will have to fail
Holding the feet in water so hot, does
effectually draw the blood to the farth
est extremity ftom tne head; and keep
ing the feet hot so long, holds the blood
away from the head, so that the disease
is robbed of support; it cannot spread
and inevitably fails.
*
I
‘•A full bath, even though it be a
Turkish or a Russian, is not effectual
against the grip; because the whole
body is equally heated, the blood is
made to bound mure rapidly, and the
disease is fed rather than starved.
“Follow these directions strictly, and
nothing will fail but the grip.
“If you have not had experience so
that you are acquainted with the grip,
you can know that it is upon you by
your eves burning, your nose tickling,
your head feeling large and full, and
perhaps every joint and muscle of the
body aching. But you need not wait
for all these symptoms: one or two of
them is enough to justify you in begin
ning proceedings ”
A complaint of assault and battery
comes on this afternoon in Justice
Slattery's court, W.H. Shaw and Mrj
Shaw being the principals, the latter
filing the complaint. The defendant is
also under $500 bonds to appear in dis
trict court, action being complaint to
keep the peace. Both are the outgrowth
of domestic troubles.

Railroad Talk.
Vanlentine Republican The sleepy
old State Journal has opened its eyes
long enough to catch a glimpse of the
Denver & Valentine railroad project.
Being located on the line of the Burl;
ington road, the strongest competitor of
the Northwestern, the Journal is nat
urally and necessarily opposed to the
building of the Denver & Valentine,
there fore its discouraging words should
be double discounted. It says:
It is not improbable that some in
teresting moves will be made on the
railroad checkerboard in this part of the
west during the progress of the work
of amalgamation now going on among
the great corporations. The gossip con
cerning *a new Northwestern line be
tween Omaha and Denver, or Valentine
and Denver, can hardly have any found
ation unless the intimate relations now
existing between that company and the
Union Pacific are dissolved It is more
probable that the Great Northern will
extend the Pacific Short Line from
O’Neill to Denver, or that the Mi) waukee
will build from Omaha to the mountains.
In case these systems are united, as
common report says they will be the
natural expansion would be in the form
of new lines from Omaha and O'Neill,
uniting somewhere in central Nebraska
and then pushing on to Denver. It is
not likely that many important moves
will be made without causing at least
one more transcontinental line to be
thrown across Nebraska.
Now, if the reader will draw a line on
a railroad map from Valentine to Denver
he will Bee that it crosses three lines of
the Burlington and he will begin to un
derstand why the Burlington company
and its newspaper organs are opposed
in the building of the Denver & Val
entine road. The projected road would
become a competitor for. a good deal or
huisness that now necessarily goes to
the Durlington lines. Besides it would
open up a wide expanse of country
which now has no railroad facilities, an 1
aud being in good general sense, a north
and south line, it would have a practical
monopoly of the shipping trafflo in a
territory three hundred miles in length
and for a great part of the distance
many miles in width. As it Js the
evident intention of the Northwestern
to push on to the Pactlo coast, and as
the proposed Denver & Valentine line is
the most feasible, practicable and cheap
est link between Omaha and Denver
that is available we believe it will be
built.

A telegram was received yesterday
morning by Col. Neil Brennan from a
brother of Mr Kearns and in the after

Speaking of the matter Col. Brennan

one of the early settlers around O’Neill.
He left hear about fifteen years ago and
by hard work and untiring energies has

of heart, affection of spine, disease of
eyes with partial loss of sight, strain of

WK TWO HAKE A WORLD.
We two make home of any place we go;
We two find joy In any kind of weather:
Or If tho earth is clothed In bloom or
snow.
If summer days Invite, or bleak winds
blow.
What matters It If we two are to
gs therT
We two, wo two, we make our world,
our weather.
We two make banquets of the plainest
fare;
In every cup we find the thrill of
our pleasure.
We hide with wreaths the furfowed brow
of care
And win to smiles the set lips of de
spair.
For us life always moves with lifting
measure;
We two, wo two, we make our world,
our pleasure.
We two find youth renewed with every
dawn;
Each day holds something of an un
known glory,
We waste no thought on grief or pleas
ure gone:
Tricked out like hope, time leads us on
and on.
And thrums upon his harp new srng
or story.
We two, wo two, we find the paths of
glory.
We two make heaven here on this little
earth;
We do not need to wait for realms eter
nal.
We know the use of tears, know sorrow’s
worth.
And pain for us Is always love's rebirth.
Our paths lead closely by the paths
supernal;
We two, we two, we live In love eter
nal.

CATTLE RUSTLERS

Twelve Head Gone From Pat
Shea’s Herd.
DEAD DOG IN EVIDENCE
Drive Off Eight Steers and Four
Heifers While Family
Slumbers.
When Pat Shea, residing two miles
northeast of O'Neill, went to his barn
yards and cattle corals yesterday morn
ing he found that eight bead of steers
and four heifers which ought to be in
the yards were not there.
He at once concluded that the cattle
had been stolen, and this belief was
confirmed a few minutes later when Mr.
Shea found the barnyard dog lyii g
dead under a wagon with a bullet bole
through him. It is suppose 1 the dog
set up a noise when the parties, who
ever they were, came to the place and
was put to silence with a bullet. The
family were all asleep and did not hear
the shooting or other noise.
No clue to cattle, rustlers or which
way they went was obtainable, but Mr.
Shea and a number of neighbors started
out to cover the country in search of
them. There being no snow on the
prairie, tracking was impossible and
the search necessarily more or less at
random.
Up to Wednesday afternoon no trace
of the missing stock was found.
