L0 Wo have a considerable amount of sickness in this vicinity, the unfortunltto being G. F. McNamee, Dr. Walker, Mrs. If K. Wills and Mrs. Dave Larue. Tho genial I'd Patrick of Lincoln ho of cigar and tobacco fame was among our business men today. The new firm of IetringSi Schuster, of Nebraska City, will soon commence business at tho old Rose & Co. stand. Fred Young and Dave LaKue had business in l'lattsmouth on Wednes day. Tho local Modern Woodmen held a lively meeting Wednesday evening, at which timo three young men "went through tho mill." Union roasts of the second largest camp of Woodmen in Cass county, being exceeded only by l'lattsmouth in pcint of membership. Our latest report from A. It. Fiken- bary is to the efTect that ho is getting along nicely. llev. II. 1. Mann, who many Cass county people will remember as a resident of Hock JJlulTs years ago, ar rived hero last Saturday and occupied tho pulpit tit the M. VI. church on Sunday. Washing-machine agents were ex hibiting near Hotel Smith this inom ing, and our corpulent, J. C. Frank, became so interested that it required considerable elTort to prevent him climbing into the machine. A committee of tho Old Settlers' association hold a meeting a few days ago and arranged for a new feature in connection with our reunion. For the 1898 reunion an oratorical contest will be held, the contestants to be between the ages of sixteen and twenty-one, and to be residents of Cass and Otoe counties. The prize will be $25 cash or medai. Hon. C. A. Atkinson of Lincoln was here last Wednesday to ofliciate at the Modern Woodman public installa tion and delivered a splendid lecture on "Woodcraft." Fred Clark is carrying his neck in a sling, the result of too frequent am putation of whiskers. Attorney Travis of Plattsmoutli had legal business in our city Wednesday. Hiram DuBois was a Plattsmouth visitor Wednesda3r. John C. Koddy, the wealthy Otoe county farmer, was among out- people on Tuesday. 11. M. Weimer returned last week from a sojourn of several months in southern Texas. SUCCESS IN "STRIKING" TITLES. The Filling of Prescriptions,. Is the most import-int work of a good drugstore.

The value of a striking title to an article or story is understood by no American periodical so well sis the Ladies' Horns Journal, writes a New- York correspondent. It has made its titles famous by their uniqueness. Its "Side-Talks With Girls." "Heart o Heart Talks" and "Unknown Wives of Weil-Known Men '"have been ridiculed and paraphrased from one end of the country to tho other, lint it has all been grist for the Philadel phia periodical. Just now the title of "The Inner Experiences of a Cabinet Member's Wife" is attracting atten tion. "The Man Under Thirty live" made thj reputation of Lilian LJell in this magazine. "My Literary Passions," under which Mr. Ilowells wrote in the Journal, served at once to attract attention. Yet each title adopted by this clever magazine fits the story and is really the best caption for it "A Minister of tha World" started that story on its success. "Mr. Boecher as I Knew Him" was an ini mitable title of Mrs. Beecher's mem ories of her husband. T.ilk about cleverness in titles, what magazine is such a pastmaster in the art as is the Ladies' Home Journal? And a news paper man knows how difficult this art of title-making is. But nothing is so valuable in attracting the eve of the public. Alitrkit-VxIM-ry. Promptly at high noon on Wednes day, January 1!, 1S08, Mr. Ivlgar Marks and Miss Myrtle Vallery were united in rnarriago by Judge SpurloeK. 1 ho b, ide is tho handsome daugh ter of Mr. itnd Mrs. Conrad II. Val lery, who resides southwest of this citv, and on the occasion was dressed in an exquisite, costume of fawn-eul-or d siik tiimmed in lace ari l ribbon. Mr. Mai-j.cs is tho popular son of .Mr 4. .Mar.es, who resoles near xsc hawka, at d is well liked by all who know him. immediately af.er the ceremony, the young couple returned to the home of (he brides parents, uhoro an elegant and suniputous dinner was served to a select company 01 friends and relatives. In the evening they give a grand ball at Nehawka which was largely attended and highly en joyed by all present. Mr. and Mrs. Maries received many handsome and useful pre-cnts, and their many f 1 k nds wish them a bright, happy and prosperous life. Wax a l'eriloiirt Calling. Walt Mason io the Lincoln Journal, says: "J, Sterling Morton, in a very happy address, recalled tho stern days when there were but few editors in Nebraska, and they wrote with t. gun on the desk and a knife in easy reach. Mr. Morton believes tho lot of tho modern editor is a couch of roses. Many a time, when he was writing editoriuls in tho brave old days, In dians would come to the windows and I shoot him full of poison arrows, and upon one occasion they scalped his fore man just as tficy were going to press, delaying the publication of the pa per nearly an noar. hteiim was out of the question in those days, and Mr. Morton rigged up a sort .of thiead mill and kept th;3 buffalo bull in it for two years. This bull operated his establishment at a very low cost. Many of his subscribers were bud men who were always spoiling for a fight, and every paragraph on tho local page was sure to make somebody mad, and on the day after the publica tion of each issue of his valuable piper, Mr. Morton and his fore man held a reception in the count ing room, armed with shot guns and smaller firearms, and the undertaker used to come along at o .'57 in the even ing, with the only dray in the town, to haul away the corpse. Alas, such thin irs have passed away. F.ditoriai work is tamo enough now. The ag grieved subscriber does not call to have a playful exchange of bullets, but hires a cl.eup lawyer who is seek ing notoriety, and brings a suit for libel. Every newspaper has its as sortment of pending libel suits, but where is the able editor who has his private graveyard in the lot back of the office? The old times were the best times."
