STUDE6AKER!
STUDEBAmE
fijl STUDEBAKER!
We have just received a car load of Studebaker automobiles and
are in a position to make your delivery at once which is certainly grati
fying to a purchaser to not have to do the monotonous task of waiting
for delivery.
We can show you a car that can not be surpassed in finish, room,
seating capacity and "power" for any where near the price.
Our 4-cylinder, 40-horse power, 7-passenger body, 34x4 wheels,
112 inch wheel base at
$875.00 f . o. b. Detroit
and
Our Six Cylinder, 50-horse power 7-passenger body, 122 inch
wheel base, 34x4 wheels at
$1085.00 f. o. b. Detroit
are values which no one can match. Our representative will be at
Plattsmouth during the Home Coming week and anyone wishing a
demonstration with either the four or six are invited to call at Amick
garage at 6th and Vine where Wolff & Ault have opened temporary
sales quarters.
The buying public are not doing themselves a justice without first
seeing our product and seeing the performance of these cars built by
the soundest corporation in the U. S. A.
We have just closed a contract with the Studebaker corporation
of America for new territory. To eight mile Grove precinct we have
been fortunate in adding Plattsmouth precinct, including Plattsmouth
city and Rock Bluff precinct, also including Murray. Any person wish
ing a demonstration other than on Saturday can bring a 4 or 6 to their
door by dropping a post card to Wolff & Ault at edar Creek, Neb.
You are not in any way obligated to us by reason of a request to
call at your home for a demonstration. All we can ask is to "show
vou" even though you are not from Missouri. If we can not convince
you in our efforts to prove the power,
them we have at least done our part.

The storm last night carried away
the foot bridges in front of Wm. L.
Wells' and Mr. Graves', and injured
the bridges on Washington avenue
so that they are not safe to cross
teams on.
Dr. Schildknicht's kitchen and din
ing room were also flooded, about six
inches of water covering the floors.
Eugene Mayfield, Typographical en
gineer of the Louisville Chronicle was
in town over Sunday.
James II. Wintersteen, of Wahoo
once a typo in this office is married.
So says the Independent. A Miss
Hart caught James, as MacDonagh
says, most "h (e) artfeltedly."
As the evening grew older, hosts of
home friends dropped in and soon the
chairs and tables were covered with
valuable, curious and beautiful pres
ents; a very handsome spoon holder,
far removed from tin except in color,
an epergne ornamented with most
beautiful flowers, a bed room set, an
exquisite pickle dish. Among the
curious were, some pressed sea moss,
an elegant specimen, framed in tin;
picture of Mr. and Mrs. MacMurphy
! in street costume, framed elaborately
in tin; A tin neck-tie (was that a
hint. Cap?) and tin studs, with ma
sonic emblems thereon; A tin watch
chain and locket: Some tin brackets
and a card receiver.
OUR TIN-TIN-NAB-U-LA-TIO N S
Mr. and Mrs. MacMurphy of the
Herald, had a Tin wedding at their
house Monday evening, November 2
and two more surprised people you
never saw. Wishing to make so-ne
note of the flight of time, on the 10th
anniversary of their wedded life, and
having no toddlers to space off the
years as they roll, it struck them that
it would be a good way to get a few
of their neighbors and friends to
gether and make merry on tin, not
dreaming of the beautiful things those
same kind neighbors ana irienus
would lay up in store for them. On
the day mentioned the early express
began to bring them things in from

Lumber and Building Material.
Plattsmouth, Nebraska
From Saturday's Dally.
Jasper M. Young of this city, has
been very much interested in the
"Come Coming" plans, as he has the
distinction of being: one of the early
residents of the city, and his parents
are numbered among those that made
the present conditions in the west
possible by coming out to this section
of the country when it. was still the
domain of the wild Indian and grad
ually winning it to civilization.
The Young family came originally
from Virginia. L. II. Young, the
father of J. M., was born in 1821, in
Kentucky, where the family had re
moved to from their earlier home, and
in 1841, they came to Missouri, where
they located on the land known as the
Platte purchase, in Platte county, Mis
souri. In 1814 they moved again to
Nodaway county, Missouri, where they
resided for a short time, when L. II.
Young enlisted for the Mexican war
and remained in the army until 1847.
After a search for gold in California
in 1841), the father of J. M. Young re
turned to Missouri, to find that his
family .had moved to a location near
Glenwood, la. He followed the fam
ily to Iowa and here, on March 19,
185:, Jasper M. Young was born.
When but an infant of a year old, he
was taken to Bellevue, on the west
.side of the Missouri river, where the
treaty of the confederated tribes, the
Omahas and Otoes, ceeded all their
lands to the United States, and Ne
braska was then ready to be thrown
open to settlement, and the Young
family were witnesses to the signing
cf the treaty that was to mean so
much to the residents of this section
of the world.
It was in 1854 that the Young fam
ily secured a claim in Cass county,
near old Kenosha, and here the father
labored in a most diligent manner
until a rude log house was erected,
and then the family came from Iowa
and occupied the home in the locality
that was for many years known as
Three Groves. During the long years
of the residence of Jasper M. Young
in the county he has been given the
opportunity of witnessing a great
many changes in the country and its
gradual development from a wilder
ness into one of the finest agricul
tural counti-ies in the world. While
the parents of Mr. Young have both
vanished from the scene of life, their
work as pioneers still lives, and it is
a great pleasure to their son to con
template the important part they hat
in the making of Nebraska. The life
of Mr. Young has been filled with a
great many exciting incidents, and at
the "Home Coming" gathering lie
hopes to be able to relate many in
cidents of life in the pioneer days in
this state, covering a period of sixty
one years.

MILK FED CALVES
Are susceptible ..to bowel troubles
which runs them 2down and it takes
a long time for them to recover.
For them to grow and thrive they
must be in good condition from the
suckling stage to marketing. B. A.
Thomas' Stock Remedy corrects these
troubles, cleans out their systems and
causes them to reach the marketing
stage in the earliest possible time.
We sell it.

12:00 o'clock midnight.
This should be the hour of soundest
sleep. It is claimed by good author
ity that one hour of sleep at mid
night is worth five hours of sleep at
any other time.
We go to bed tired in mind and
body, and if our sleepis good, we
arise refreshed and rejuvenated. Even
cares that seemed as mountains at
night are as nothing in the morning
Truly, good sleep is the repair shop
for the body.
Miserable, indeed, is the person
who cannot sleep. Sleeplessness
weakens the nervous system. It up
set3 the digestive organs, it influ
ences the blood circulation, and every
ether function.
When a man lies in bed and hears
the clock strike one, two, three, four,
his nervous system is shattered.
Thousands tell how Tanlac has
brought them sound, healthy, refresh
ing sleep, strengthened their nerves
and given them good appetites.
It makes new rich, vitalizing Moot
r.nd mere nerve force. If you are
pale and thin and lack vitality the
rapid building up action of Tanlac wil
surprise you.
Tanlac is being specially introduced
in Plattsmouth at the Mauzey Drug
Company.
Tanlac may also be obtained in
Springfield, at II. Fiegenbaum's store
and in Weeping Water at the Meier
Drug Co.
