Set Your Clocks Ahead Sunday. Sunday morning at 2 o’clock the daylight savings law goes into effect. At that time, or rather at 10 o’clock Saturday night, which may be more convenent, all clocks and watches should be turned one hour ahead to so remain until 2 o’clock a. m., October 31. The daylight savings act was passed by congress and it is estimated that under it thousands of tons of coal used in light and power plants will be saved and that workers will be given an hour more in the afternoons for re creation or work in the gardens. The act makes the new time the standard time for the period mentioned. In O’Neill the county offices will open and close on the new time and the mer chants generally will observe it. The banks will open at 9 a. m. new time and close at 4 p. m., to accommodate their country patrons. The churches will follow‘the new time in their services, with the exception that this Sunday the Presbyterian church will observe old time to avoid confusion. The Rev. Father Cassidy announces that his congregation will observe the new time with the first Sunday mass. Railway agents have not yet been informed regarding train sched ules. The schools will observe the new time. Easter Services Presbyterian Church. Sunday, Morning, 6:30 (old time.)

Albion News: “Elsewhere in this paper will be found the Articles of incorporation of a new railroad which proposes to bulid a line from Albion to Atkinson, in Holt county, a distance of approximately 100 miles. The ar ticles were filed at Lincoln last week, and inasmuch as the promotors were compelled to pay a filing fee of over a thousand dillars, it would look as though they meant business. The or ganizers are from Kansas City, St. Joseph, Omaha and Colorado Springs, and claim to have unlimited capital be hind them. “Mr. Pullen, the president, was in Albion last week, and assured the News that they meant business, and active work on the survey will be started just as soon as the prelimi BAZELMAN’S STOiriE Tobacco, CM QC 12 Cans for . y I itw Fancy Corn, OE« 2 Cans for . 4Jw Corn Flakes, IRp Syrup, QRp per gallon .

He said that he was not at liberty to tell all the plans that they had under their hat, but insisted it was not any U. P or Northwestern scheme, but an en tirely new and independent company. This hundred mile sector was only a starter for a north and south system, to extend across the state, with branch lines to many unoccupied sections of the state. He intimated that the Niobrara river was capable of being harnessed and furnish sufficient elec tric power for a large system of roads. “Mr. Pullen has been engaged in building railroads in different parts of the United States for many years, and intimated that he knew a good thing when he saw it, especially an un occupied railroad field. "An office will be established at Albion which is to be the headquarters of the new company, and further de velopment will be awaited with interest.” A TALK WITH AN O’NEILL MAN J. H. Davison, Proprietor of Harness and Shoe Shop of Main Street of His Interesting Experience. There is nothing like a talk with one of our own citizens for giving hope and encouragement to the anx ious sufferer from the dread kidney disease. We, therefore, give here an interview with an O’Neill man: “Some tme ago I was suffering from kidney disorder,” says Mr. Davison. “My back was lame and sore and there was a steady, heavy pain over my kidneys. When at my work, I could hardly straighten up, because such sharp pains caught me in my back. My kidneys acted too often and the secretions were unnatural.

German Kultur Not A New Thing. “Every village they have passed through has been the victim of what is only organized pillage. Every city has been practically sacked, ransacked on system; its citizens plundered, its civil officials terrorized, imprisoned, outraged, or killed. The civil popula tions have been, contrary to the usage of modern warfare, forced to serve the invading armies, brutally put to death, reduced to wholesale starvation, and desolation. Vast tracts of the richest and most industrious districts of Europe have been deliberately stripped and plunged into famine, solely in order that the invaders might make war cheaply. Irregular troops, contrary to all the practice of war, have been systematically murdered, and civil populations indiscriminately massacred, solely to spread terror. A regular system of ingenious terrorism has been directed against civilians, as horrible as anything in the history FOR OPTIONAL FARM LOANS at 5, 51/2 and 6 per cent interest, with small com mission, payable any in terest date, in whole or in part.
