Last evening a message came say ing that Otto Wurl had arrived at New York, and a night letter came this morning telling that he would arrive in Plattsmouth tomorrow af ternoon. As the regiment to which he was attached in France was in the hardest of the fighting rn the western front, in the Picardy sector some apprehension was had as to his safety, and when the telegram came telling of his arrival the folks hae" some grave misgivings until they had known the contents of the mes sage and its good import. Otto bar been taking some intensive train ing, and has just completed his ex aminations in all the modes of war fare, and passed with excellent cred and his returning to America, where he is to be placed at Camp Dix, N. J., is supposed that he is to be an instructor, but it is not known. Otto will have a seven day fur lough, and will certainly enjoy it with the family and friends here. Plattsmouth will surely welcome her son home again if only for a short time. EXCELLENT REASONS.

It cleans the intestines, sharpens the appetite and helps digestion. All stomach troubles, constipation, in digestion, flatulence. headache, nerv, general weakness, etc. will disappear. Our motto is: We can always look you in the eye. We are using best bitter herbs and ex cellent red wine for Triner's Ameri can Elixir. That is why it has so many thousands of friends. $1.10.
