At the picnic given on the last day of her school iq District 189, Miss Eleanor Sullivan greatly surprised the crowd of pupils, parents and friends by an nouncing that she has been married for nearly five months to Luther Pierce of O’Neill. After the visitors had been served a bountiful lunch, Miss Sullivan, through Mrs. George Rock, announced that she and Mr. Pierce were mar ried on November 28, 1924, at Elk Point, S. D., by the Rev. William C. Strong. This held the gathering spellbound for a time as there had been no sus picion at all during that time of her marriage and many well meaning persons, not understanding her ex clusiveness, had attempted to furnish her with an escort on various occa sions. The young couple will make their home at Stanton, Nebraska.

But they al ways have had certain peculiar habits. Their brake bands and trans mission bands get glazed and alter nately slip and grab. To develop an oil that properly lubri cates the motor, timing gears and trans mission, has been no simple or easy accomplishment. But Polarine “F” for Fords does all these things. Introduced to Ford owners of Nebraska in 1924, it has stood the test. Thousands of motorists use it regularly and report that it does all that we promised. If you have not tried Polarine “F” you have a pleasing experience ahead. Next time you have your crankcase drained get it filled with Polarine “F” •for Fords. It will cost you no more than Polarine Medium, but it will give you a smoother-running, quieter, better lubricated car. Drive up to any garage or dealer where you see the Red Crown sign, and be sure of proper lubrication and balanced gasoline. t STANDARD OIL COMPANY OF NEBRASKA \ Main Office; OMAHA Branch Offices: LINCOLN HASTINGS NORTH PLATTB vvwwa v v iuvi 4VHWIMI CARD OF THANKS.

Many people here are daily pur chasing Kamak and telling of its remarkable health-building powers. Among the many strong indorse ments of the sensational new medi cine that will be of interest to the readers of this paper is that of Thos J. Stewart, 117 S. 14th St., Omaha, Neb., which is told in the following words: “Money couldn’t buy the good karnak has done me,” is the en thusiastic statement of Mr. Stew art m reporting his remarkable re covery to good health bv its use. “For three years I suffered from nervous indigestion, constipation, nervousness and a weak condition. I couldn’t half rest nights, and mornings I would get up with a coated tongue and feeling all out of sorts in every way. “When Kamak came to Omaha I started taking it, and from the way it has fixed me up it must have been made especially for my case. It just knocked the indigestion sky *u?h, and toned up my whole sys tem from head to foot. I don’t have a trouble of any kind, and just feel full of ‘go’ all the time. Kar- . nak is certainly a world beater.” Karnack is sold in O’Neill exclu sively by Chas. £. Stout, and by the leading druggist in every town.
