Get roofing that lasts.
What’s the use of spend
ing money for repairs and
frequent re-roofing?
Genasco is proofagainst
rain, snow, sun, wind, heat,
cold, sparks, alkalis, acids
—everything that harms
ordinary roofs.
The natural oils of
Trinidad Lake asphalt
give it resistance, and
make it last.
Now is the time to let
us have your order.

tending the golden wedding anni
versary of Mrs. Golden’s parents, Mr.
and Mrs. Thomas Morrow, formerly of

John E. Schindler has filed suit in
the district court asking for judgment
against the Chicago and Northwestern
Railroad Company for $273.35,
damages alleged to have been sus
tained in the shipment of nine head of
cattle from Newport to Lincoln in
February of this year. He alleges
that on February 18, 1916, he loaded
nine head of cattle in a car at Newport
for transportation to Lincoln. That in
the shipment the railroad company
took 27 hours and 21 minuets longer
than it should have taken and that by
reason of the delay in transporting
them he was damaged in the sum of
$273.35, for which he asks judgment.
A suit for damages growing out of
th renting of a farm occupied the at
tention of the county court two days
the first of the week. The case was
that of 0. P. Chase vs. Floyd Craw
ford. It appears from the petition
that in the spring of 1915 Chase rented
a half section of land to Crawford.
Crawford planted 40 acres to oats and
200 acres to corn. Chase was to re
ceive one-third of the crop raised. He
alleged that Crawford failed to
properly care for the corn and allowed
his stock and the stock of others to
run in the field and greatly injured
the crop, and that although his share
was to be delivered he was compelled
to haul about 500 bushels of his share
of the corn himself, which was worth
$20. Prior to the trial of the suit
Crawford made a tender of $20 and
agreed to pay all the costs up to that
time. The case was tried to the court
and a verdict was rendered for $20,
the amount the defendant had agreed
to confess judgment for.

bridge, about three miles east of this
city at about 2 o’clock this afternoon,
the body being recovered about 4
o’clock.
Cion Bressler was a member of the
seventh grade in the O’Neill public
schools and it has been the custom for
the past few years for the teachers to
give a picnic for the pupils. This
morning the members of the seventh
and eight grades, forty-two in
number, chaperoned by their teachers,
eft on their annual picnic. There were
two hay rack loads of the young folks
and they were feeling good over the
prospect of a lovely day free from
lessons and with nothing to do but
enjoy themselves. They stopped in
the Gallagher pasture, south of the
Northwestern track, near the mud
bridge. After lunch some of the boys
desired to go in swimming and they
went up the stream around the bend
and went in. We understand that
Bressler could not swim but was as
sured by some of the others that they
would teach him, so four of them went
in swimming. Near where the boys
went in the river cuts around a bend
and the rush of the current has cut out
a deep hole and it is said that on that
side of the river the water is twelve
or fourteen feet deep. Shortly after
going in Bressler sank and called for
help. Edwin Shaughnessey, aged 17,
who was one of the boys who went in
with him, went to his rescue and suc
ceeded in getting him to some willows
that g rew along the bank, where he
was told to hang on until help could
be secured. The effort made by
Shaughnessey in getting Bressler to
the willows exhausted him and he had
a hard time getting out himself.
Whether Bressler got cramps and was
compelled to let go of the willows, or
whether he was so exhausted that he
could hold on no longer will probably
never be known, as no one seen him
when he sank.

Barrett’s and telephoned to this city
and a large crowd was soon on the
scene. After about an hour’s search
the body was found on a sand bar., in
about three feet of water, about 200
feet east of where he was last seen.
Physicians were present and they
labored for a half hour in trynig to
resusicate him, but to no avail, as he
was dead when taken from the water.
Shaughnessey was also in bad
shape when the physicians arrived, as
he was hysterical and had to have
medical attention .
Deceased was the son of Rev. and
Mrs. Geo. Bressler, who formerly
lived near Leonie, but who now live on
the Minton place just north of this
city. They have the heartfelt
sympathy of the people of this city in
their hour of sorow.

Saturday is your very last chance to see the
Hoosier Kitchen Cabinet Gold Medal Dem
onstration that attracted so much attention |
at the Panama-Pacific Exposition in San
Francisco last year.
f More interesting, more entertaining, more valuable to
every up-to-date housekeeper than a lecture on domestic
science.
Scores of your neighbors have seen this demonstration
at our store this week and learned how to cut thieir kitchen
work in two.
After Today--Which Will You Do? i
Will you walk end- Sit down at your Have JV E IV Time for music. Time for read- Time to dress after
ing* an ^clearing work with all sup- hours to spare for outdoors, for 4ng, correspond- meals before noex*

I Remember, there are Hoosiers for farms, camps, apartments, big and
I little kitchens, for window spaces, and the center of big kitchens. No 1
| further need for old-fashioned, built-in, uncleanable cupboards.
The Hoosier is a wonderful kitchen machine that revolutionizes kitchen work. Come, see ex- I
actly how it operates—see how it excells all other cabinets made. Remember you need buy this |
cabinet only once in a lifetime. So that every day you delay having us deliver your Hoosier you
are making yourself do unnecessary work, waste energy, time and steps. •

M. E. Church Notes.
The revival is still progressing.
Each night witnesses a good attend
ance, and interested congregation; but
there is always room for one more.
“Come then with us and we will do
thee good.”
Dr. Heddon is doing good work in
our city, and those who fail to hear
him are losing one of the greatest op
portunities of life. Here is your
chance to decide for Christ and Chris
tian service.
Subject for Thursday night;
“Hell.” Friday night: “Excuses.”
Have you been to any of the revival
services at the M. E. church yet?
They are surely interesting. Try
once. c
Best Thing for a Bilious Attack.
“On account of my confinement in
the printing office I have for years
been a chronic sufferer from indi
gestion and: liver trouble. A few
weeks ago I had an attack that was
so severe that I was not able to go
to the case for two days. Failing
to get any relief from any other
treatment, I took three of Chamber
lain’s Tablets and the next day I felt
like a new man,” writes H. C.
Chapin, S. C. Obtainable every

(Continued from page five.)
‘no thoroughfare.”
If the next five years are to repeat
the history of the past eight, then
there can be no business improve
ment or general prosperity in the
United States. Rest from agitation,
intelligent economy, efficiency, har
monious co-operation among business
institutions as well as poltiical di
visions—these are not obtuse ideas.
They do not provoke eloquence or at
tract the self seeking. They are
things as long familiar and little
reverenced by the mass of man as the
contents of the Decalogue. We must
go back to them or suffer the penalty
paid by every creative thing that de
fies the law of the physical or the
moral order of the world.
President Wilson, whose life spent
in study and investigation, qualifies
him as an observer of current events,
has recently manifested a desire to
help the business of the country re
gain some of its former vigor. If
others in public life will aim to give
busines a chance to adjust itself to the
conditions imposed by recent legisla
tion, the whole country will, with new
hope and confidence, step rapidly for
ward toward the sunshine of com
mercial peace and national prosperity
greater than it has ever known.
