Good Time for Everybody Assured
The beauties of patronizing the
mail 'order houses of the great
extern cilies was illustrated this
week when one of the patrons of
these concerns sent an order lo
the linn that was received on Ie-
rember 1 i, and a short lime after
wards he received from Ihe com
pany a notice thai it would be im
possible to ship the goods ordered
until January 25. 1 Miring all this
lime the company had bad the use
of the money of Ihe, person order
ing the goods and he had been
compelled to wail, over a month
and has not, yet received the ar
ticles ordered.
If he bad gone lo some of Ihe
local merchants and procured the
articles he could have gotten I hem
at, once. 'or if they were ordered
through them, delivered lo him,
but by ordering through the mail
order bouse be is the one who is
compelled to bold Ihe sack and do
the wailing.
This is only one of Ihe many
little annovances thai come up
through doing business in this
manner, ami the sooner llie peo-
le wake up to Ihe fact that they
an buy cheaper at home and see
what they are getting the sooner
they will be able lo practice true
'cononiy, for with a mail order
house you lake what you can get
and be glad that you got anything
for your money.
The I own in which you I ivo.
lolds all that goes lo make up life
and you owe it to yourself to
make it as good a town as possible
by building it up, and the only
way lo do that successfully is to
give the business interests your
heartiest support by patronizing
them on every possible occasion.
No town can thrive whose resi
dents take their money which
they have made there and send it
to some other place to be spent or
invested.
Moves to Town.
M. A. Hall and family, who have
been living south of this city,
have moved lo town and taken up
their residence in the Dr. Hall
property in the Third ward. Mr.
Hall has for many years been one
of the prosperous farmers v)f
Cass county and we are glad to
know that he has taken up bis
residence in IMatlsmoulh. The
young folks of the family are at

You Can't Keep a Good Thing

The Helpers of the Christian

were a large number in attendance
and during the business session,
which Ihe ladies held, it was de
cided to serve coffee and sand

GLINT LEACH OF UNION
SUFFERS BROKEN LEG
An accident that might have re
ulled fatally occurred yesterday
afternoon, and as a result of it
Clint Leach received a broken leg.
He was hauling ice on a wagon,
and while driving along the tongue
dropped down and tipped the
wagon, causing Clint to get one of
his legs caught in the spokes of
the wheel, and the leg was broken
in a horrible manner below the
knee. The bone was badly splint
cred and protruded through the
underwear and two pairs of over
alls when the young man was
rescued, lie was conveyed to the
doctor's office, where the wound
was dressed and the attending
physician holds out Ihe hope that
the limb can be saved.
Woodman Circle "fleets.
Tho Woodman Circle held
meeting last evening at the A. O
U. V. hall and a number of the
lodge members from Omaha were
present to assist in tho work of
th'o order. The local lodge is con
stantly increasing their member
shin under tho effective work of
tho local deputy, Mrs. Joseph
Henry Ileil, jr., of Cedar Creek
and V. M. Prosch of Murdock,
were in the city today and made
the Journal a brief, but pleasant
visit. Mr. Prosch is a cousin of
Mrs. Ileil and is a guest of the
Ileil home. We were pleased to
meet both gentlemen.
You can no more make a suc
cess out of bad material than you
can keep a good thing down. "Mutt
and Jeff" scored a pronounced bit
at its tfrsl performance. Why?
J'.ecause Ihe play possessed real
merit, and the people instantly
recognized Ihe fact. That success
has been grow ing and reading out
until the report from every part
of the 'country says: "The one
big hit of thi' season."
Not only the people, critics and
newspaper comment pronounce it'
a hit, but the heads of the great
theatrical syndicate, who control
Ihe booking of the thousands of
theaters throughout this vast
country, send out the report,
"'Mutt and Jeff,' the financial
success of the year." Think of
it, overshadowing the success of
all the great "stars," little "Mutt
and Jeff" leads them all. Is it
any wonder that everybody wants
to see it? The reports of the
newspaper critics nor the report
from the syndicate did not make
"Mutt and Jeff" a success. The
people made it a success because
it was just the sort of entertain
ment they wanted to see. (Jus
Hill knew the wants of the people
and gave it to them, that's the
answer. Secure your tickets at
tho Riley hotel now and avoid the
rush at the box office.

The Condition of Employment.
Kvcry employment, either
physical or mental, depends, in
the first place, upon perfect
health, because steady work will
become impossible when our
strength gives out every little,
while. The main requirement is
to keep the digestion apparatus in
good condition. As long as we can
accept and digest enough food,
our earning capacity will not
weaken. Should we notice any
change we should at once use
Triner's American Elixir of Hitter
Wine. This remedy will act
quickly and decidedly. It will
drivo all impurities from the body
and prepare the digestive organs
for new food. It will strengthen
these organs and make their work
regular. At drug stores. Jos.
