CAN’T DO THE WORK.
It’s too much to try to work every
lay against a constant, dull backache,
>r sudden darting pain in the small of
he back. Be rid of it. Try Doan’s
iidneyPills. Your neighbors recohi
nend them. Ask your neighbor.
Mrs. Minnie Boiwen, O’Neill, says:
‘I had backache and a heavy dull pain
n my kidneys that seemed to wear me
ill out. I couldn’t get much rest at
light and it was all I could do to keep
it my work. There was a severe pain
n the back of my head and through
ny shoulders. My kidneys were
veak, and caused annoyance, but
Doan’s Kidney Pills relieved me eom
iletely.”
The above statement was given
lune 20, 1916, and on June 14 1920,
Mrs. Bowen added: “I still think
Doan’s Kidney Pills are a good kid
ley remedy. It has been a long time
lince I have had need of »' kidney
•emedy.” ,

MEER-FISHER.
Valentine Republican, Nov. 18.—The
narriage of irwo of. the most promi
lent of the younger people in Valen
;ine took place Monday morning at
5t. Nicholas church, when Rev.
Father Blaer read the marriage ser
vice for Dr. Mathew Francis Meer
»nd Mrs. Anna Marie Fischer. They
were attended by W. B. Haley and
Miss Laurentia Haley. They left that
light on a brief wedding trip to points
west, and returned last night.
Dr. Meer has practiced dentistry in
this city for the last ten or twelve
years, and his bride has proved her
self a capable business woman while
interested in the Fischer hardware
store. Each has many friends who
will join in best wishes for their mar
ried life. They twill be at home in the
doctor’s residence, formerly the M. D.
Cyphers home.

LOVE him, I
love him. I
loVe him,” Ag
nes Allen said.
And as she
V'as alone In
her room, and
os no one could
hear her,
naturally there
was iy> answer
to her state
ment which she had repeated several
times.
She was speaking of George Far
well. George was so good looking
with Ills wonderful- blue eyes, h,1s
brown hair, Ills flue erect figure.
Wherever she saw men she thought
how Insignificant they looked beside
George. She was
glad that sl^fe
thought 'that
way. She hoped
others thought
that way about
the men they
cared for. Then
everything would
b^ so smooth and
so simple.
She wanted
everyone to like
her George Im
mensely. But It
would be embar
rassing If every
one thought Just
the same about
him ns she did.
The wedding
was to be Olirlst
limp* rn leril'iuil. l llt'ii mc.y uau
planneil to go to fhelr own new little
home which they had just finished
furnishing and fixing up. They were
going to linve their own little Christ
mas tree there—quite by themselves,
and their friends had left their wed
ding presents and their Christmas
presents there, though almost all of
the former they had seen, of course.
"Are you almost ready?” It was
Mrs. Allen calling up the stairs.
"Almost, mother dear,” she an
swered.
"You’ll be late,” her mother called.
‘TU hurry,” she said.
“Do you want any help?”
But she had taken longer than she
had thought. Yes, if she didn’t hurry
she would be late! Still she would
have George all her life now. How
wonderful It would be! She wondered
if tlmt wns why brides were so often
late because they felt they had so
much time!'
It wns a gloriously happy thought
to realize 'how much time she had.
She was only ten minutes late. The
few friends W’ere at the Christmas
day wedding. And her bouquet was of
holly, and mistletoe. She had always
said she would love to have such a
wedding bouquet. It would be so
merry and Chrlstmasy and such a
happy, gay kind of a bouquet.
George had consented of course. He
agreed to everything she said, be
cause he loved her so, and she wns so
fair with him, too, because she loved
film so 1
The ceremony wns over. They
drove away in a low sleigh with
Jingling bells to the small house.
There, by themselvles, they opened
presents. What a glorious time they
had.
And she had a little surprise for
him. Just a little bit of a surprise.
But she knew he would like It.
“Open that box, there, George," she
said.
He opened It.
And looked at some collars, many,
pinny collars, all much too big for
him.
"When I was buying my wedding
clothes In town that time, George,
I remembered
HUM tfUU 11
of a wonderful
kind of collar you
liked. I remem
bered Hie name
too. i was a
little puzzle d
when the m a »
asked rue your
size. I told him
though that as
'long as he had
the right kind
the size didn't
make any differ
ence. When he
asked me if you
were Idg or small
I told him you
were nig of
course!
“Wiry, George,
what is the matter? Won't they lit
you? Is the size so important?"
“My darling little girl," he laughed
"what does it matter what the size
is. That is—it does matter about
wearing them I'm afraid, my love. But
to think you thought of me even
when you were getting the wedding
fineries and remembered the name of
the collar.
“They’re my Christmas collars,” he
exclaimed, “and I'll put them away
in the box with the Christmas bouquet
we’re going to save. Sucli a Christ
mas gift from a dear little bride
should never be mangled by any
laundry I"
"What a silly I am," she laughed
gaily.
"But such an adorable silly,’'
George answered as he kissed her.
1 OLD AND NEW CHRISTMAS DAY
Nobody Has Been Able to Deckle
Whether January 6 or December
25 Is Correct Date.
HltlSTMAS day seems wed
ded to December 25. A
summer Or a springtime
Christnufy with no holly,
no mistletoe, no frost, no
snow, would not he the real thing at
all, observes London Answers.
The majority of our beautiful Christ
mas carols, too, redolent as they are
of the winter—“Sung Amid the Win
ter's Snow”—would he hopelessly In
congruous. Emigrants (o Australia
from the mother country have con
fessed that it has taken them many
years before they could get in any
way used to what is practically a mid
summer Christmas.
Yet December 25 is merely an ac
commodation date for the birthday of
Christ—Christmas day. The year, too,
is wrong. Most people would take It;
for granted that Christ was born In
A. D. 1—literally, of course, the year,
of our Lord, No. 1,
But our chronology is four years
out. This should be 1025 and not 1021,
because Christmas day could not, on
Indisputable historical testimony, have
been later tfian February B. C. 4!
That settles the year of the first
Christmas, but all attempts to fix the,
actual (lay and month of Christmas
have failed.
And, as regards the present date,
Christmas, like Easter, took some cen
turies before a settlement was arrived
at. In the first centuries of Chris
tianity several Important Eastern
churches observed January C as
Christinas day. The Armenian Chris
tians (lo so still.
Gradually, however, uniformity was
attained, hut not before the Fifth cen
tury. In that connection it must be re-,
membered that for quite a long period
this country was divided on the ques
tion of Christmas. Some people per
sisted In observing "old" Christmas
day.
But all will agree that December
25, even If it is not the actual date Of
Christ’s birth, is a happy choice.
Our present-day Christmas, festival
and holiday, breaks the long winter,
and what better time could there be
for family reunions? The cold and
unpleasantness outside make it all the
'more agreeable to keep warm and
snug inside. It keeps us together in
every sense. ^
THE CHRISTMAS TREE CUSTOM
Use of the Young Evergreens Is Re
garded More as a Matter of Senti
ment, Not of Economics.
VERY year some mathemat
ical calculator figures out
that this country would he
several billions richer if, us
a nation, we abolished the
good, old custom of ihe Christmas
tree. Yes, in actual dollars and cents
valuation of our natural resources the
United States probably would be more
wealthy for the continued growth of
the evergreens. However, we believe
no better return ever came from trees
than th« true joy which nil mankind
gets from Christmas trees at this the
greatest of all holiday seasons.
Nearly 5,000,000 young evergreens
go upon the Christmas-tree market
each year, 1,500,000 in New York and
the New England states alone, and It
-Is an easy matter for an enthusiast
who is quick with the pencil to figure
up the waste In our natural resources
by the annual loss of this embryo tim
ber. The economic consideration Is
not entirely indefensible, for in the
Northeastern states particularly a big
proportion of the trees come from pas
ture land or that which would be
cleared In the ordinary course of Im
provement. Later, these trees would
be cut anyway. Of course, wholesale
destruction over watershed areas
should be discouraged as in any for
estry activity, but it must be remem
bered that the Christmas-tree custom
is one of sentiment, not of economics.

Christmas.
If we were to fancy a wholly Chris
tianized world. It would be a world in
spired by the spirit of Christmas—a
bright, friendly, beneficent, generous,
sympathetic, mutually helpful world.
;Let us cling to Christmas all the more
as a day of the spirit which in every
age some souls have believed to be the
possible spirit of human society.—

KNOX MAY CHANGE
ITS GOVERNMENT
Bloomfield, Neb., Nov. 23.—The
agitation for a change in the county
government from the supervisor to
the commissioner-system seems to be
gaining ground. The feeling is prev
' alent that the present system has not
worked out practically and is more ex
pensive than the commissioner system.
One correspondent, writing to the local
paper, advocates doing away with both
supervisors and commissioners and
1 m iking the county judge, county clerk
: and county treasurer the governing
; board of the county, they to hire a
county engineer to have charge of all
read and bridge work. An attempt
will be made to call a special election
to vote on the proposition of making
he change and petitions will be out
in the near future.
