Every i i Two Minutes Physicians tell us that ail the blood in a healthy human body passes through the heart once in every two minutes. If this action be comes irregular the whole body suffers. Poor health follows poor blood ; Scott's Emulsion makes the blood pure. One reason why ITS EMULSION is such a great aid is because it passes so quickly into the blood. It is partly di gested before it enters the stomach; a double advan tage in this. Less work for the stomach; quicker and more direct benefits. To get the greatest amount of good with the least pos sible effort is the desire of everyone in poor health. Scott's Kmulsion does just that. A change for the better takes place even be fore you expect it. Wt will send you a umple free. Be lure that tl.ii picture in the form of a label is on the wrap per of every bottle of Kmulsiuti you buy. Scott & Bjwne C!irn.U: 40; I'ejilSt., N.

Without an exception they all agree that the wheat has passed through the winter apparently without Injury or winter killed in the least, and with the pres ent condition the ground is In the fields will get an early start and the prospects for a bumper crop of wheat never has been equalled in Cass county. A Conflagration Prevented. A disastrous lire was prevented .Saturday at John Ilirz's place five miles northwest of town, by the timely discovery of the blaze by one of his boys. The shingles had caught fire In some manner, and the roof was threat ened for a short time on account of the strong wind that was blowing, but with several buckets of water the flames were extinguished. Iowa Town Up Against It. G. W. Alexander, mayor of Chariton, Iowa, is in the Inebriate asylum at Knoxville, and the other day the city Clerk was sent over with a request for the mayor to resign. This Alexander refused to do, and the superintendent Of the asylum says he caunot get out for six months, so now the council of that bur are wondering "where they are at." And all this In poor old pro hibition Iowa! My, my, but that's awful. says many a doctor to his lady patients, because he doesn't know of any medi cine that will core female troubles except the sur geon's knife. That such a medicine exists, however,is proved by thousands of cures made by WINE OF Cures Womb Disease It Ins saveJ Hie lives of nuny weak, sick women anJ rescued oth ers from a lifetime of chronic sick ness.

An LITTLE COMMON SENSE TALK "Do Unto Others as Yon Would Hate Oth ers Do Unto You." Here are a few timely tlmu'liU for tbe riattstuouth merchants to ponder over, which may prove beneficial to some of them: "It you sell groceries to Mr. Smith, It is only natural that Mr. Smith should expect you to buy meat In his shop. "IsiTt that perfectly fair? Well, then, If you earn your living In l'latts mouth, Is It unfair to expect you to spend what you can of It here? Many of those who do their shopping out of town do so thoughtlessly. "If your brother sells furniture you wouldn't go into an Omaha store to buy a chair Just because it looked pret ty and cheap In the show window, would you? "Wouldn't you say to yourself: My brother can get me that chair Just as cheap. I couldn't think of getting it from any one else? "If you have to live and earn a liveli hood in riattsmoth, every other per son who is similarly situated Is your brother, lie can get It for you just as cheap, mi matter what it is, and will do it if you request It." Garden Seeds. This is the season of the year when the congressmen are busily engaged In ordering, seeds from the government department sent to theirconstitticncy, and every mail brings large quantities. This reminds us of a story told us yes terday morning at the postofllee when one of our cltl.ens drew forth from his box a large package of those "vote-getters." He didn't want them and threw them away. He told us that a few years ago he received several packages and among them was a package labeled turnipseeds. His wife coaxed him to sow them, which he did, expecting to raise enough to last him through the winter. He visited the patch several times, and he noticed that they did not spread out like turnips, but grew In length. One day his wife told him to gather a mess and she would try them. He did so, and after boiling them an hour or so, instead of getting soft, they really became harder, and to this day lie lias never lieen able to tell what kind of seeds they were. Since that experience he says he don't want anything more to do with government seeds. They are a fraud of the first water, and the Journal is pleased to know that this great graft which has existed as a benefit to congressmen in the way of making the farmer believe they arc remembered "for their past favors." is going to t e a thing of the past by the discontinuance of this de partment by the government. Returned from California. A. J. Graves, who went to Califor nia several months since in the hopes that a change of climate would benefit his health, returned home Wednesday For a few weeks Mr. Graves seemed to Improve, and had great hopes that he would finally recover, but lie was doomed to disappointment, hence his return.

A report came to tbe county clerk Saturday that the family of Carl Anton, who live in the north part of town, were In very destitute clrcum stances, and that Carl has gone from home and has not supplied the needs of his family. It will be remembered that Carl Anton attempted to take his own life several years ago, and falling In that he left borne, and his wife had received no word from him until Satur day niornlng.wlien he reappeared upon the scene. Mrs. Anton has been sick and has two little children to care for and consequently was unable to secure the necessities of life. The county clerk ordered provisions and fuel to be sent to the family to supply their Inv mediate wants. A Former Plattsonlan. J. F.

IN PLATTSMOUTH Every Claim is Backed by Local Testi mony, If the reader wants stronger proof than the following statement and ex perience of a resident of I'lattsmouth, what can it be? II. M. Young, city bill poster of Sixth street, says: '"Mrs. Young was constantly complaining of a dull pain across the small of her back which in creased if she overexerted herself or contracted cold. Later it was contin uous, or one attack seemed to succeed another so rapidly that just as one was leaving she dreaded the return of an other. She used more than one remedy, but it was like throwing money away as far as benefit from the treatment was concerned. 1 had read In news papers about people suffering like her where Doan's Kidney I'ills had been used with very good results and this Influenced me to goto (lerlngcv Co.s drug store for a box. Mrs. Young commenced the treatment and she was more than pleased with the bene fits received.

Omaha needs a change In the ad ministration of affairs about as much as any city in the land. Something Is radically wrong In the police force. Last night just a few moments before the hour of 10 o'olock Frank Clark, manager of the llrandlcs & Sons bank, was shot down in the attempt to free himself from footpads while on his way home to his wife and children. And had It not been for the timely aid of a couple of men who happened near he would have been murdered and the bank looted. Where was the police' man on that beat during this occur rence? While badly wounded Mr, Clark was doing as well as could be expected this morning. Murder and robbery is of too frequent occurrence in that city to lay claim that It Is well governed. It is not. And a change for the better must be brought about by a change of administration. Teachers Important. There will be a teachers' examlna tion held In tbe high school building at Weeping Water on Friday and Sat urday, March 16 and 17. There will also be an examination held at I'lattsmouth on the same dates. The subjects will be given in the order named in the pamphlet with one ex ception. Ry special arrangement with the ex amlning board, for the benefit of teach crs, mental arithmetic will be given Saturday afternoon Instead of Friday morning. Applicants expecting to take certain subjects must be present at the time when such subjects arc given, as there can oc no smiting or program to ac commodate individual applicants. All applicants for certificates, teach crs and otherwise, who have not yet begun to write, are urged to begin the examination at this time. J. W. Gamiu.k, Co. Supt C A. (awls, Lawyer.
