If you wish to preserve your own health you must not forget that the main thing In the human body is the blood. Take care of the blood, keep it pure, healthy and strong and your whole body will be in perfect condi tion. If your blood Is of a poor qual ity, the whole system will suffer. You will notice a constant loss of strength, unablllty to eat enongh and to digest. In such a condition Trin er's American Elixir of Bitter Wine will be of the greatest benefit. It will stimulate the digestive organs to work, will clean out the system thoroughly and will assist In the for mation of new, rich and healthy blood.

COVLES' SALARY DONATION RULES Land Commissioner at Lincoln Makes Them Public. HOW HE WILL DISPOSE OF CASH, Official at State House Figures That Calls for Aid Will Take All That He Draws From Stat of Nebraska, but Declines to Give Away Income From His Farm. Lincoln, Aug. 20. In order to save stamps in replying to requests for finances, Land Commissioner E. B. Cowles has decided to give away all of his salary under certain conditions. During his two years in office Mr. Cowles has discovered that it takes practically all of his salary to meet the calls for aid from various Institu tions and persons and so rather than waste any of it in replying to calls by letter, he has given out the following statement under the heading, "Cowles Rules for Donating Salary." "Requests for donations will be fa vorably considered If the money 1b to go to pay for churches, to pay preach ers' salaries, to libraries, to the Salva tion Army, to pay for wooden legs or arms or for crutches or surgical oper ations. No part of my salary will be given to skating rinks, baseball grounds, bicycles, roller skates, wed ding presents, trips to Europe, pet dogs or parrots, licenses to wed or for doctors' services In case of ob stetrics. Persons should not waste time in calling in person or squander postage in mailing requests to me for these purposes. "My salary Is $2,000 a year. I esti mate that there are 1,200,000 people In Nebraska and in responding to re quests for donations I will divide my salary so that each inhabitant will re ceive his proper share. A family of six persons will be entitled to 1 cent. If there are 300 persons in one society or church organization the donation will amount to 50 cents. Each appli cant can compute the amount by this rule. "I have an income from my farm, quite small in a dry season, but this I decline to give away, as I am re serving It for my grandchildren. It Is true that I have no grandchildren, but if this reason does not appear to the crpHcant to be sane and sound, I can think of some other reason on short notice, and it will not pay to urge me to separate this small amount from my purse." i OSBORNE PLEADS NOT GUILTY Alleged Slayer of John Hoctor Ar . raigned on Charge of Murder. Fremont, Neb., Aug. 20. George Os borne pleaded not guilty to the charges of first degree murder and of murder while attempting highway robbery. Osborne was arraigned be fore Justice Johnson for the alleged murder of John Hoctor, to which he inula a written confession. Since making a confession Osborne has se cured the services of attorneys, who advised him to waive preliminary ex amination. County Attorney Cook believes that robbery and not self defense consti tuted Osborne's primary motive and he will push the case along that line.

In that document Osborne failed en tirely to tell what became of the watch and money known to have been in Hoetor's possession before his death. Part of the watch chain was found with the body, but the time piece and several links of the chain were missing. ALDRICH INCREASES LEAD Shallenberger's Forces Concede Dan!, man's Nomination.
