If the fire bell should ring would you run and stop it or go and help to put out the fire? It is much the same way with a cough. A cough is a dan ger signal as much as a fire bell. You should no more try to suppress it than to stop a fire bell when it is ringing, but should cure the disease that causes the coughing. This can nearly always be done by taking Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Many have used it with the most beneficial results: It is especially valuable for the persistent cough that so often follows a bad cold or an attack of the grip. Mrs. Thomas Beeching, Andrews, Ind., writes: "During the winter my hus band takes cold easily and coughs and coughs. Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy is the best medicine for breaking up these attacks and you cannot get him to take any other." Obtainable everywhere. STALK FIELD For cattle and Horses. E. R. QUEEN. MR. FARMER! A half million dollars worth of perfectly good farm ma chinery is thrown in the scrap pile every year in Nebraska. Farm work is the hardest work there is on machinery. Castings break, bearings wear out, shafts bend and break. Things get dull and pull hard, gears rattle, smash, bang and crash, paint gets dull. Many farmers throw away machinery and buy new, be cause they are not aware that we can in Yiearly every case re-make such machinery equal and in many respects better than new. We do not care how bad your machinery is smashed or worn, they all look alike to us; we re make them as good as new and save you money. A dollar saved is a dollar earned, keep your money" at home and you may get it back again besides it helps us to em ploy home labor. Put your machinery troubles up to us, we have the best equipped machine shop in the country; if you don't believe it call and see us. Visitors are always welcome. We make everything in metal. Now is a good time to over haul things for the spring rush WESTERN MACHINE AND FOUNDRY. L. C. Sharp.

Morocco is hardly our idea of a summer resort, but the members of the Tzigani Troupe of Arab acrobats consider it just the right place to spend the dog days. Consequently, after the close of the Aborn Opera Company's tour each spring, young Slayman Ali, commander of the Tzi ganis, leads his Bedouins aboard a ship Morocco bound. This year they returned to America late in the sum muer, and are again appearing with the Aborn organization in its spectacu lar production of "The Bohemian Girl," which will be seen at the Par mele theatre, December 16th. They belong to the Berber Tribe of Arabs who inhabit the north coast of Africa. There is a theory that this was one of the lost tribes of Israel, as their language is Semitic. However, if they really were the sons of Ham who wandered away from the other Israelite tribes, they did not cling to their ancient Hebrew customs and re ONE NIGHT ONLY 1. $1.50. Seats on ligion, but adopted the Mohamedan faith and the ways of living of Ara bian peoples with whom they have mingled for thousands of jears. Slayman Ali, the young chief of this band, is the son of a Shiek, which is the same as a prince in Europe. His father is absolute monarch of a prin cipality in north Africa, and this is the reason the son is able to obtain permission to bring his Troupe to America each 'year. They always bring with them a large supply of kus-kus, which is their principal native food made from wheat, and which is not obtainable outside of Morocco. They prefer their 'food preparation, using pure olive oil instead of animal fats for cooking, and are fond of rice and all kinds of vegetables. , . ' They use meat sparingly, lamb be ing their favorite. ' They smoke Turk ish tobacco, -but do not take any alco-hlic- drink, every member of the Troupe bein a "teetotaler." UH 5 t& Jin j? ysi! Sale at Weyrich & Ha drab a' s All boys and some girls of their race are trained in athletics from the time they are eight or ten years, which probably accounts for their good health. This early and continued training coupled with the inborn agil ity of all Arabs makes them the most remarkable "ground and lofty tum blers" in the world, appearing to ab solutely suspend the law of gravi tation in some of their stunts. They practice from one to three hours each day, all the year around, thus keeping their muscles "tuned up" like steel bands and their constitutions hardy. Consequently, they seldom have "to lay off" from , a performance. Dur ing the six years they have spent with the Aborn Opera Company in "The Bohemian. Girl," only three members have lost one. performance each on account of bruises, but not one has ever had to stay away from the thea tre on account of any internal jllnefr.
