There's no telling what the

the man with the ready cash

opportunity.
Isn't it a fact that cash in

Dcczn't it give you confidence?

the afternoon, were very interesting.
The v. hole affair was one of great
pleasure, although all regretted the
departure cf Rev. Davis, who is going
to Missouri City, Mo., where he will
take up his church work, residing in

look after some farming in the future.
His many friends in this locality wi.-h

Fertile Land in Perkins County.
There were quite a number of Cass
county farmers who made a trip to
western Nebraska this week, and
while on this trip a thorough inspec
tion was made of Perkins county. The
general lay of the farms in this
county is nearly level, with good
drainage. The soil is black loam, with
a clay sub-soil, well adapted to hold
ing moisture. The Mack soil runs
frcm two to four feet in depth. The
virgin soil is covered with buffalo
grass.
This part of Nebraska is one of
the hot winds belt; no hot winds ever
reach this altitude, and the rain is
abundant. Rye, wheat, barley, corn

average of corn will be big this year;
the stand is good and th growth

with Ca-s county corn. While all
p:-.:ts cf Nebraska hail a hard jolt
from winter -freezing on fall wheat,
Perkins county farms will show a
two-thirds stand ?cme a full stand,
with good prospects for a big yield.
One stand of wheat selected, at ran

ANNIVERSARY SURPRISE.
Tuesday evening the United Pres
byterians gave Dr. ; nd Mrs. Jack.-on
a very pleasant surprise, as they had
learned that the day marked an anni
versary. Tuesday was the anniversary
of the marriage of Dr. and Mrs. Jack
son, and the members of the congre
gation planned and executed a sur
prise upon the couple and their guests.
Because of the rain those living in
the country could not get in, but al
most all members living in town ap
peared at the parsonage about 8
o'clock that evening, and after spend
ing some time very pleasantly served
an abundance of ice cream and cake to
all present. They left the occupants
of the rranse in a very harpy frame
of mind, and with two fine porch rockers.

A Mistake.
There seems to have been some mis
understanding in the past few days
regarding a small subscription taken
up in Murray a few weeks ago by A.
L. Baker, the purpose of which was
to help defray the actual expense of
the Cass County Defense league which
recently organized. This fund, raised
by Mr. Baker, of which there was only
the sum of .?" fiom West Rock Eluffs
precinct, was sent to C. S. Stone of
Elmwood. Neb., treasurer of the said
Cass County Defence league, from
where it will b? used as above stated.
The report circulated was to the ef
fect that the money subscribed to Mr.
Baker went to pay the recent regis
tration board who served on June 5th.
The men who served on the registra
tion board June oth. from 7 o'clock
a. m. till 11 o'clock p. m.. gave th;ir
services ta their country absolutely
gratis, which was a very commend
able act on their part, and that such
an obnoxious rumor, without one cin-
tillia of foundation should be circu
lated that a petty collection had been
taken for the gentlemen who served
as registrars, j- an injustice and de
mands correction.

OH A RAMPAGE DOES
MUCH INJURY TO GROPS
Omaha, June 27. Mrtlo Aldeii,
the 17-ear-!d Papillion g'rl who dis
appeared from her home ten days aro.
was found last right in Kansas City
by Federal o:!lcers fr..m Omaha. She
was in the company of Frank McCar
thy, with whom it is supposed she
clop.d from Papillion. He was arrest
ed. Tiie girl is anxfous to return tc
Omaha, according to telegraphic in
formation received from the officers
who found her. The case was worked
up by the Omaha federal authorities.
A federal "white slave" warrant
has been issued for McCarthy and
forwarded to Kansas City. As soon
as this warrant is received there, Mc
Carthy will be brought back to Omaha
for trial.
J. W. Alden, father of the girl, shed
tears of joy when he was told his
daughter had leen found. He went
to Kansas City today to bring his
daughter home. '
"I want her to come heme," he said.
"Everything will be just as it was
before she went awav."
DIVORCE CASES IN THE
DISTRICT COURT THIS WEEK
The divorce jue.-tion seems to be
the chief factor in the district court
with several coming to trial and oth
t i s being tiled. This morning the case
of Kelly J. Rhoden vs. Jennie Rhoden
was on trial in which the plaintiff
cUims desertion as the cause of ac
tion. The court after hearing the evi
dence in the matter entered an order
granting the decree as prayed for by
the plair.tilF.
A suit was idso hied last evening
entitled Mary E. Chase vs. Walter D.
Cha.-e. The parties in the action were
married in Plattsmouth November
2", iy in, and the plaintirT in her ac
tion claims cruelty as the cause for
the divorce. Another suit filed is that
cf Nettie Vaughn against Jay
Vaughn, in which the plaintiff states
that they were married at Platts
mouth cn September 10, 1013, and
that the defendant has deserted the
plaintiff leaving no word as to his
whereabouts. Non-aupport and 'de
sertion are given as the cause of action.
Reports received from the western
and southern portions of Cass county
st.tte that the Weening Water creek
which th v.s through the southern por
tion of the county has overflowed at a
r umber of places and did a great deal
of damage to crops in that locality.
Near Weening Water a rainfall of
four inches is reported, and this,
added to the heavv rainfall through-
cut the other sections of the county
has tiansformed the creek into a r.ag-
i.ig liver that in a number of locali
ties has spread over the lowlands and
ciid much damage to the growing
crops and the loss is quite heavy to
the farmers. In this section the Eight
Mile and Four Mile creeks have been
the highest for many years and the
damage done will be very heavy, as a
great deal of the corn has been wash
ed cut that it will be impossible to re
plant at this time.
A Had Habit, Which Grows Worse in

Many people are loo sluggish to
walk, and this pernicious habit grows
worse, especially in the hot season.
The practice of hopping on a car or
riding in automobiles robs them of
the health preserving exercise, the
physical and mental vigor weakens,
the indigestion and stomach troubles
are the order of the day. Triner's
American Elixir of Bitter Wine is a
welcome corrective. This remedy re
moves the constipation, helps diges
tion, stimulates appetite and tones up
the entire system. Take it for health
it is a remedy, not a beverage.
Price $1.00, at drug stores. Triner's
Liniment is also a remedy of the sea
son. It is excellent for sprains,
strains, swellings, bruises. If you rub
the muscles after a hard day's work
or athletic exercise, or if you use it
for tired feet after foo bath, you will
be surprised by the agreeable result.
Price 25c and 50c, at trug stores; by
mail, 35c ami COc. Jos. Triner, Manu

at Missouri Valley, la., the roads be
ing in such condition that it was .al
most impossible to get through. Jack

The John Deere Dain Mower
is the mower with the "compensating" or bal
anced gears one of the simplest, most powerful
transmissions ever devised for a mower. No
power is lost in transmission from axel to knife.
That is why the John Deere Dain cuts all the
grass on any ground over which a mower can be
operated. Cultivators are getting harder to get
deliveries on every day. We still have plenty of
Jennie-Lind and Jhon Deere Walkers and a few
Riding Cultivators in stock. Better get busy and

GREETINGS FROM THE AIR.
From Tuos.lay"s Iai!y.
When the government observation
balloon passed over the city Saturday
it attracted a great deal of attention,
and while passing over the John Hall
strom farm south of this city and
which is occupied by Samuel Stone
and family, a cord was dropped ever
board which landed on the farm and
was picked up by members of the
family. On the card was the words,
"Greetings from.U. S. balloon 0-2,
Pilot Mr. Leo Stevens; Sergeants Ken
nedy, O'Neill, Haight and Richard
son." The can! was brought into the
Journal office and is a pleasing token
from the air forces of the army at
Fort Omaha.
