The merchant who is most successful is the one who gives the buyer the best service and satisfaction. To satisfy the buyer is our aim. For years you have been able to avail yourself of partial pro tection in buying hardware by demanding that bearing some good factory brand. Today we make the protection complete by agreeing to replace the unsat isfactory article. Be sure your hardware bears the Wright & Wilhelmy three ! color Double Guarantee tags it authorizes the dealer to replace the article free of cost if for any reason it proves unsatisfactory. It is placed only on the best factory brand hardware. You have the double protection of the factory name and our guarantee. Lock for the Double Guar antee tag. Ask your dealer for Double Guaranteed goods. Wright & Wilhelmy Co Omaha, Nebr. MM worm anywhere around V. W.

Clia-e. at the Congregational church in Weeping Water, Neb.. Dr. M. M. Butler of Weeping Water to Miss Stella l'aine of Painesville, Ohio. More friends and well wishers gathered to witness the ceremony than even the snaciotis church could contain, and as two pretty maidens strewed with flowers their pathway to the altar, all seemed to hope the omen true and wish them a gladsome .journey through life. After the brief and impressive ceremony the bridal party repaired to the house of Mr. Amandus Beach, the bride's brother-in-law, where congratu lations were received and a gen erous collation was served up to as many of the friends as the house could contain. Among the guests we noticed Dr Schildknecht and lady of plat tsrnouth. In the midst of the hilarity Potter's cor net band of Weeping Water ap peared on the scene, and in the form of well selected and really superior musip added another and unexpected token of the general good will of the people toward the doctor and his fair bride. Eugene Lewis has put a new picket fence around his yard and is renovating his house thorough ly. Our '"devil" says something- is going to happen. So? Judge Childs sends us word that Friday was the hottest day in 13 years, and Saturday beat that; 100 before 10 a. m., and 107 at the surveyor general's office, one nf the coolest places about town. Mr. Skill, than whom no more truthful man pan be found, de clares that on Friday fresh made bread was toasted on the table at Stadelman's before they could get it to Iheir mouths to eat. Glord! Mediealilies. Br. Tilden, and in fact all the doctors, agreed in their reports that Nebraska was one of the healthiest states in the Union. Believing this tobe true, yet the Herald, in surveying the fine and rounded abdominal pro portions of the assembled Galens, and the amount of adipose matter spread over and about their mus- pular developments, irresistibly draws these conclusions, viz: That they either brought large private fortunes to this country, that their practice lies outside of the state, or that there is some mistake in the reports. We kind othink Ir. Tilden got mixed in his report. The.se cool nights would huv done well enough several years aaro and, in fact, we accept Iba! : but when he tells us that there are no "mixed skin diseases in Nebraska." be lets the cat out of the bag at once, and shows I hat he does not know anything about the days of '37 and was never introduced to the "prairie disrs." So! Mr. Vallery thinks if ihe Medi cal convention met here often, and Dr. Black had the feeding of them, the local practice in this town would soon increase. June Black has .just graduated in M. M. and he took his first fee la-t night. Hurrah for June! Wiley is awful jealous. Many citizens think we shall need no medicine for a long lime. The presence of so many doctors having the effect to scare all dis ease away, or frighten the patient well. The long advertised and eager ly watched for camp meeting of ihe Nebraska Holiness association is now in progress west of town. The great tent called the taber nacle, is pitched on the west side of the grounds, and is a large af fair, some ("fi feet in diameter and very tastefully trimmed. J list east of this is a large house tents belonging to the church at Lin coln, and for the ministers to sleep in and for the childrens' prayer meetings. Fourteen other tents are on the grounds already. Among the numerous celebrat ed ministers on the grounds we notice: Rev. 11. T. Davis. Lincoln; C. A. King. Schuyler; W. B. M. Colt. Oak Creek; Clark Wright, Omaha; J. M. Adair, Omaha. J. 11. Presson. Omaha: Mr. Drhams, Ashland: Mr. Worb-y, South Bend; Mr. Fobb-ii, Weeping Water-; Mr. Crippen, Ml. Pleasant: Mr. Tibbits. Rook Bluffs; Mr. I. Marquette. Crete: Mr. Thor p, Pal myra ;Mr. Bear-. Weeping Water; Mr. Cage. Thayer Co.; Mr. East brook, Sarpy Co.: Mr. Norvall, Iowa; .Chaplain Wright of ihe F. S. A.: Chaplain Lo.ier. Fort I lodge, Iowa: Hon. John Roberts. Nebraska City, and other persons of note throughout the state are present from time to time during t he meetings. The regular daily ser vices com mence at 8 o'clock in the morning, wi'h prayer and conference meet ing: at 1 :.' there is preaching, followed by prayer, eic.; at 2 in the afternoon, daily, there will be a childrens' prayer meeting in the big tent, east of the tabernacle ;the Lincoln tent', and at the same time a praep meeting in the tabernacle. At o o'clock, reg ular preaching again. In the evening at r:.'Jn. prayer and con ference again, and at 7 preach ing. Each service of preaching is followed by exhortations and invitations to come to the mercy seat, with singing and short pray ers. Yesterday Bro. Marquette preached in the morning at 10:i;n. and Bro. Folden in the afternoon. In the evening Bro. Crippen, ML Pleasant, held forth. Rev. Mr. McKi lvey has con ducted the preparations thus far-, and has had all care and charge of the grounds, the overseeing of all local matters necessary to make things work smoothly and hor moniously. But since the arrival of the president and secretary of the association, they have taken charge of some of these matters. The ciiy marshal, with a spe cial posse of seven picked men, will be on the grounds during Sat urday and Sunday, they being the great days of the meeting, and the sehriff of Cass county will also be on hand to take charge and preserve order on the portion of grounds outside of the city limits. At night special watch men patron the grounds and keep things straight, prevent muse, in trusion, and look out for the com fort of all. Riley Barber Shop Open.
