Matinee Monday 4 p.m. All School Children 25c Special Music Nights Sunday and Monday, February 10th and 11th ROYAL THEATRE ITEMS OF INTEREST FROM INMAN LEADER Floyd Renner and family, who have ersided in Inman for a number of years, daparted Saturday for Elwood, Indiana, Where Mr. Renner has secur-j ed employment in the steel mills of that city. They are making the trip by auto and expect to visit relatives in Kansas enroute. The best wishes of their many friends go with them in their new home. Mrs. Halloran has received an an nouncement of the marriage of her grand daughter, Miss Olive Coffin, of Burwell, Nebraska, to Mr. Ralph F. Walker, of McCook, Nebraska, which occurred on January 21st at the home of the bride’s parents at Burwell. The bride is well known in Inman having visited here on many occasions and who has a large circle of friends who will wish her a happy and prosperous wed ded life. The newly weds will make their home at Burwell where the groom has recently engaged in the drug business. The news reached Inman friends Tuesday that Neal Chase formrely manager of the Bauer-Henry Lumber Company, at this place, and Miss Arina Gallagher, formerly stenographer for the Watson Hay Co., were married Tuesday morning at Sioux City, Iowa. Particulars regarding the event are lacking at this time but we expect to learn more about it for next week’s issue. They will make their home at Petersburg, Nebraska, where the groom has recently been transferred as manager of the Bauer-Henry Lum ber Company's interests at that place. . The Dewitt Dftrby family who have lived in this vicinity nearly all their life, will leave within the next few days for Rapid City, South Dakota, where they will make their future home. They held a sale of their per sonal property Thursday of this week and last night a reception was ten dered the family at the Odd Fellows hall where a large number of friends and relatives congregated and pleas antly passed the evening in social chat and visiting. The object of moving to South Dakota at this time is princi pally for the benefit of Mrs. Derby’s health, she having been afflicted with asthma for the past several years and her condition seems to be growing worse. With a change of climate i^is thought that her condition will im prove. NO FATALITIES REPORTED FROM MALIGNANT DISEASE Acute golfing is such a frequen1 disease that two physicians, Doctor Hookem and Doctor Slicem, held a conference yesterday to diagnose such cases and offer the best possible remedy, says the Topeka (Kansas) Capital. The patient was M. Ashie, age 50, address Everywhere, U. S. A., who had the disease for many years. The following are the results: Golfitis originated among shepherds of Scotland about 500 years ago. Since its very first origin the disease has always appeared in a very acute form. No mild cases have been reported by any reliable specialist, altho some cases of milder form of mental disor der have apparently been taken care of. For several centuries, like gout, it seems to have been confined to the nobility or the wealthier classes. The cases of golf seem to have some connection with an excess of leisure time. Although the disease is un questionably brought on in most cases by accidental contact with persons al ready contaminated, it has been proven that poor heredity predisposes to golfitis. It generally attacks persons from 8 to 80, although some cases have been reported above and below tfhese ages As regards the proportions of sexes affected, the male predominates by a 5 to 1 ratio. The only races so far uncontaminated are the Esquimaux and the Bolsheviki. The disease is characterized by its sudden onslaught. The disorder ap pears in full force from the beginning and so demoralizes the patient that no help in fighting it can be expected from that source. The fact that it breaks out immediately after exposure is a great aid in diagnosis, but a great disadvantage in treating it. The on slaught is followed by sleeplessness, and enormous increase in tfppetite. Later little faults in memory appear. The patient misuses words and be comes indifferent to the higher senti ments. He also loses interest in his family and in important affairs, errs in appointments, becomes inaccurate in handling simple problems in arith metic, seldom able to count above five without help, and is easily angered. He suffers from the rushing of blood to the head, mild attacks of convul sions, and loss of sense in time. He has moods of exaltation and de pression, peculiarities and incoherence of speech, grandiose ideas of his athletic ability and melancholy delu sions about his handicap. Many show a tendency to gamble and quarrel. The physicial changes show a great increase in size of chest, a-peculiar gleam of the eye, and a great increase of heart and lung power and general vitality. The disease is practically certain to run throughout the life of the patient. No cases of complete cure is on record. The patienjt will probably not live more than 90 or 100 years, but with proper care he may remain active until the last and may be a useful citizen in his community in spite of his afflic tion. Owing to the hopelessness of these cases the patient is usually committed to a country club or other institution of this order, although he or she may return home at intervals. Since there is no hope of effecting a cure, is is best to make the patient as comfortable as possible, and give him or her nour ishing food. Be careful not to inter rupt when the patient is raving and see that the patient is not burdened with business or professional cares.
