WOMEN’S CLUB.
The regular Annual meeting of the
O’Neill Woman’s Club was held on
Wednesday, May 27th, at the club
rooms. A large attendance gathered
to hear the program, and the final
wind-up of affairs of the club. In
the absence of the president, Mrs. J.
J. Harrington, first vice-president,
had charge of the business meeting.
A letter of greeting from Mrs. J. P.
Gilligan, president, was read, and
conveyed to the club her regret that
she was not able to be present, and
also, words of encouragement, inspira
tion and felicitation to the members
of the club. This letter was received
with much satisfaction.
Reports of the year’s work were
given by the different out-going of
ficers, which made a good showing
in all departments, and also, work
done by the different committees.
Especially worthy of mention is the
report from the Welfare Committee.
Mrs. Longstaff had charge of the
progi-am for the day, and acted as
toast-mistress in her usual happy
manner, announcing each number
with remarks which were apropos.
Following is the program:
Vocal Solo -Miss Agnes Carr
Musical Reading _Mrs. Kubitschek
Solo -Miss Eileen Enright
Solo - Miss Irma Stout
Mrs. J. J. Harrington gave a r#dew
of the work of the club for the last
five years, giving a brief history of
its progress month by month and
year by year. The summing up look
ed very much worth while to those
who had been somewhat discouraged
over different phases of the work,
and proved beyond a doubt, that the
O’Neill Woman’s Club has become a
very important factor in the well-be
ing and well-doing of the City of
O’Neill.
We were very fortunate in having
with us our old friend Mrs. P. J.
Flynn, a former resident and also a
member of the former Tuesday Club,
of this city. Mrs. Flynn has for the
past year held the position of Presi
dent of the Plattsmouth Woman’s
Club. She gave a splendid talk on the
work of that organization, and gave
us some good ideas for the future.
The newly elected officers were then
installed, Mrs. J. A. Brown acting as
installing officer, and administering
the obligation.
The following officers were installed:
Mrs. C. M. Daly, President.
Mrs. J. F. O’Donnell, First Vice.
Mrs. C. J. Malone, Second Vice.
Mrs. W. J. Biglin, Cor. Sec.
Mrs. Hugh Coyne, Rec. Sec.
Mrs. Ben Grady, Treas.
Mrs. G. A. Miles, Custodian.
Miss Anna O’Donnell, Auditor.
Then followed a social hour, during
which a dainty lunch was served con
sisting of sandwiches, pickles, coffee,
cake and ice-cream was served, after
which a beautiful boquet of flowers
was presented by the members of the
club to their outgoing president, Mrs.
Gilligan.
Mrs. C. M. Daly, newly elected
president, made a very appropriate
talk to the club, in which the work
of the ensuing year was out-lined and
heads of departments and chairmen
of committees named.

Biggest Sensation in History of Drug
Trade Created by Sensational Med
icine.
NOTHING LIKE IT HAS EVER
BEEN SEEN HERE BEFORE
The biggest thing in medicine today is Karnak.
Nothing like it has ever been seen here before. Every
where, crowds throng the Karnak drug stores, eager for the
marvelous medicine that is producing such remarkable re
sults.
When asked to what he ascribes
the tremendous popularity of Kar
nak, L. M. Carroll, Special Kamak
representative, answered:
“Merit alone is responsible for
the tremendous success of Kamak.
• “Kamak brings about real and
substantial benefits in the way of
health, strength and vigor. It is a
truly reconstructive tonic and body
builder. And the prompt action of
. its ingredients is remarkable. You
can tell after the first few doses
that you are being benefited in a
natural, substantial way.
One or two teaspoonsful of Rar
nak before meals corrects disorders
of the stomach, liver and kidneys,
aids digestion, cleanses the system
of impurities, builds up a natural
afipetite for wholesome food and
stimulates and revitalizes the en
tire system. As a result you soon
begin to fefel like yourself again,
brimful of new life and energy. .
Karnaek is sold in O’Neill exclu
sively by Chas. E. Stout, and by
the leading druggist in every town.

GREETING THE OAK.
_____
(By Holt County’s Poet Laureate.)
Well Old Friend! Again I gregt you
Will you welcome me to-day?
Or must I sit in solitude
My gloom to cloud this day?
I’ve come here daily for a week
Yet no word from you I’ve had.
Come, old friend, why don’t you
greet me
Your silence makes me sad.
Welcome Jack: You’re doubly wel
come.
Every day I’ve wished to speak,
But to protect my budlings
__ I’ve stood silent and jfbt meek,
For if Jack-Frost were lurking near
me
And should hear my greetings, low,
He in anger would smite my darlings
With his icy breath you know.
The sun-light said; Behold ’tis sum
mer!
And bade me don my gayest styles,
Yet Jack-Frost was only hiding
Well I know him and his wiles,
So I stood without a greeting
Biding anxious budlets wait
Until the day he hastened homeward
And summer closed and barred the
gate.
Forgive me, friend, I meant no
censor.
I knew you’d welcome me at last,
But day ago the humble cottonwood
Gave me welcome as I passed.
And the elder, and the willow,
They all gave me welcome too.
So my spirit was doubly saddened,
To be ignored by only you.
For the elder and willow
All my pity is set apart
But for you, true old faithful
I have opened up my heart,
There’s no room for any other
There’s none now, nor e’re will be,
I can only dream of Eden
When I sit and talk with thee.
Long and lonesome is the winter
With its s:-:ow piled deep and high,
Yet in evenings when in dreams
All I saw was summer sky,
With the snow piles turned to violets,
Nodding heads be-decked with dew.
All the whispers of the Faries
Seemed to come direct from you.
Once I dreamed that fall was nearing,
And Jack-Frost was sneaking by:
Faries said that in his anger
He had vowed that you should die,
But, just as he was about to stab you
I gave such a lusty shout
That I awakened from my dozing
To find my fires all out.
I have fought him many winters:
Battles, many, I have won:
And at end of a season’s victorys
To my rings I add but one
Until now they number forty
So friend Jack why fear for me?
Tho when e’ve my battles raging
I wonder how it goes with thee.
Let us close the book of pasts: *
Let us revel with the flowers,
For the future holds forth summer,
With its promised happy hours.
Let us dance and laugh and whispei
With the fairies of the dell,
Each of whom is on a mission,
To make us happy, wish us well.
You are right as again usual
In contrition I confess
Not another thought I’ll harbor
Unless it wear a summer dress;
And if you will only allow me
As last year I used to do,
Daily I will gladly come here
To talk and dream with you.
You have asked me for a favor
Which is hardly mine to give
For if you failed to come Jack
I should hardly wish to live,
So lets meet again and often,
Let us dance the summer thru,
Make the bonds of friendship tighter
That are binding me and you.
—F. O. HAZEN.
Cure for Blietere
Blisters, caused by the shoe rubbing
the foot, develop into a real painful
ulcer if they are not properly treated,
Mr. Mann of Anytown learned.
If pricked, some disinfectant should
be applied immediately. The best way
to let the water out Is to pass a bit
of vaseline thread rhrough the blister.
When the blister is on the sole of
the foot where the skin is thick, take
a fine white thread and grease It well
with borated or pure vaseline.
Thread u coarse needle and pass It
through the blister from one end to the
other. Cut the thread on each side
and cover the spot with a bit of vase
line. Next day draw the thread out.
The blister will be gone.
Blisters on the hand may be pricked
with a needle and then covered with
a layer of collodion one ounce, castor
oil eight grains; soft turpentine eight
grains. Two or three coats are re
quired.
Geese on Guard
Wild geese are extremely wary, and
take nothing for granted. While feed
ing they have a perfect system of sen
tries. Not content with this, every
now and the® two or three will fly
round high up to see thatjiothing is
even approaching them from a dis
tance.
Their hearing Is very acute, and it is
said their sense of smell is also. Cer
tainly, If they are approached down
wind, they are up and away at once,
even If the greatest care has been
taken to keep out of sight.
They have a cry like a pack of
pounds, which may have given rise to
many of the legends of ghostly packs
that are said to hunt an equally ghost
ly fox St night.

Teacher Blushed
It was a lesson on punctuation, and
Jimmy was almost asleep at his desk.
“Now," said the teacher, “If I say, *1
must leave, as I have an engagement—
By the way, what Is the time?’ I place
a ‘dash’ after ‘engagement,’ because
the sentence Is broken off abruptly.”
At that moment she caught sight of
Jimmy.
“Now then, Jimmy, you are not lis
tening. What was I saying?” she
asked him.
“Please, Miss Smith," said Jimmy,
with a start, “you were telling us you
said ‘dash’ because your engagement
was broken ofT abruptly 1”

Little Geronimo Laughinghorse, 8
year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Charley
Laughinghorse, half-breed ranchers
residing on Skull Creek just above
its junction with the Calamas a few
miles above Beaver Flats, owes his
life to Scar-Faced Billy, an educated
tame pickerel belonging to Frank
Barrett, a Calamas Valley ranchman.
Little Geronimo was saved from
drowning by the big pickerel last
week when the fish dragged him into
shallow water, where he could be as
sisted by his companions, after he
had gone down twice.
Youn Laughinghorse and his sister,
Pocahontas, attended the Skull and
Bloody creeks valley school, located
on the banks of Skull Creek several
miles from the Laughinghorse ranch.
At noon and during recess they and
the other children are accustomed
under the watchful eye of the school
teacher to wade in the shallow watdfs
of the stream. They were engaged
in this sport last Friday, when the
teacher was called away for a short
time, and during her absence Geron
imo ventured out beyond the wading
beach stepped into a hole washed out
by the recent floods. He was unable
to swim and was already sinking for
the last time when Scar-Faced Billy,
who frequents the waters near the
school house at noon time to receive
bits of the children’s lunches, was at
tracted by the screams of the other
school children and rushing to the
struggling young Laughinghorse,
grabbed the youngster’s clothing in
his needle-like teeth and dragged him
into the shallow water.
Scar-Faced Billy was found by
Ranchman Barrett a number of years
ago in an eddy of the river, suffering
and almost dead from a jagged wound
in his head received evidently from
the spear of a carp fisherman. He'
was cared for and nursed back to
health by the ranchman and a warm r
attachment afterward sprang up be
tween the two. Since that time the
big fish, which now weighs a little
over 20 pounds, has frequented the
waters near the Barrett ranch, keep
ing them clear of carp. Each winter
he is cared for in one of the large
wated tanks in the ranch barns and
is released again into the streams in
the spring.
The Beaver Flats fish and game
protective association is having a ^
medal made which will be attached"
to one of his fins in recognition of
his most recent life-saving exploit.

0-All do better with
BALANCED gasoline
WHATEVER kind of automobile
you drive, take gasoline serious
ly. On its quality depends the respon
siveness of your motor, car-mileage per
gallon, freedom from carbon and from
harmful dilution of motor oil with un
bumed gasoline.
Red Crown—the balanced gasoline—
is built to meet exactly the require
ments of modem motors. It has the
right proportion of low boiling point
fractions for instant ignition and quick '*>*
starting. It also has the heavier frac
tions that bum more slowly and keep
up pressure to the end of the piston
stroke.
Red Crown is uniform and dependable
wherever you buy it and can be relied
on to get the most power out of your
engine and take you the longest dis
tance per gallon. You can’t buy a
cleaner-burning, more economical and
satisfactory gasoline for year-around
use.
Next time you need gasoline, do as
motor-wise Nebraskans have done for
many years. Pull in where you see the
Red Crown Sign. You will receive
prompt attention and obliging service,
together with full measure of uniform,
high efficiency gasoline and motor oil
that provides protective lubrication.
