To succeed these days you I
must have plenty of grit, cour- 1

the children? Are they thin, I
pale, delicate ? Do not forget I
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. You I
know it makes the blood pure I
and rich, and builds up the |
general health in every way.
The children cannot possibly have good
health unless the bowels are in proper condi
tion. A sluggish liver gives a coated tongue,
bad breath, constipated bowels. Correct all
these by giving small laxative doses of Ayer’s
Pills. All vegetable, sugar-coated. {

steps are being taken by local musi
cians who can blow a horn to reor
ganize the O’Neill band. We are in
formed that it is the Intention to
provide the town with the best band
it ever had. There are enough mu
sicians here to make up a first-class
band and only a little encouragement
is needed on the part of the business
men of the community to get the boys
started. Many occasions arise where
a band is an inde»pensible feature and
as long as the talent is here a perman
ent organization should be maintained
A warmly contested guardianship
case was tried in county court last
Thursday. Orin Orwill Edington, a
16-year-old lad, petitioned the court
to have Charles A. Peterman of At
kinson appointed as his guardian, and
made suilicient showing to have the
prayer of his petition granted. L. C.
Chapman appeared in court in be
half of the defendant, George Eding
ton, the boy’s father. It appears from
the petition and cross petition filed in
the case that young Edington’s moth
er died when he was three years old
and the father placed the child under
the care of David and Sophia Mather
in Rock county, with the understand
ing that they were to raise the boy as
their own son. Recently the boy left
the Mather home and has been living
with the Petermans. The boy’s fath
er resides at Humphrey, Platte coun
ty. He tiled an answer to the boy’s
petition, alleging that the Mathers
have always treated his son well and
expression his desire that the boy
should be kept under their care.
The McGreevy case that was to
come up for trial in the district court
of Rock county on Monday was defer
red a few days on account of other
cases not yet completed. Some eight
or ten witnesses were subpoenaed at
O’Neill to report Tuesday but word
was telephoned down by County At
torney Mullen for them not to come
before Friday. It is expected the
trial will begin Friday.
Lincoln Trade Review: There
ought to be among the local business
men in every town in this state a bet
ter appreciation of their local news
paper. The local business men ought
to appreciate the fact that in meeting
the outside competition which has
made serious inroads on their business,
their is no more efflicacious remedy at
their command than the columns of
their home papers. The Trade Re
view noticed this last week that the
business men and members of the
Commercial club in one of the western
cities of this state passed a resolution
asking their local papers to change
their date of publication from Fridays
to Thursdays, that the advertising of
the business men might reach the
farmers before the big trade day of the
week, which in the country districts
is Saturday. The papers of that place
were as prompt in meeting the request
of the business men as could be asked,
and as a result the business men will
use more publicity and the newspap
ers will put that publicity more effec
tively before the entire people of that
locality. The newspapers in every
locality in the state can be counted
upon to more than go half way in
helping their local business establish
ments in getting more and more of the
home trade. If the business men will
show the same spirit of co-operation
and support, they will find results
coming faster and faster their way.
