RETURNS FROM VISIT.
From Saturday's nalJy.
Last evening Miss Clara Mae
Morgan came in on number 14 after
a visit of several weeks duration at
various points in the state. She
left with the Camp Fire girls and
spent a week in camp with them
at Crete, Neb., where Clara Mae en
Joyed herself along with the others.
After that she left for Superior and
there had another pleasant visit.
From Superior she went to Sargent
and was there until yesterday end
returned to her home la.t evening
having had a most enjoyable time
all during her outing.
Loss Of Appetite.
As a general rule there Is noth
ing serious about a loss of appetite,
and if you skip a meal or only eat
two meals a day for a few days you
will soon have a relish for your
meals when meal time come3. 3ear
in mind that at least five hours
should always elapse between meals
so as to give the food ample time to
digest and the stomach a period of
ret before a second meal Is taken.
Then If you eat no more than you
crave and take a reasonable amount
of outdoor exercise every day you
will not need to worry about your
appetite. When the loss of appetite
is caused by constipation as is often
the case, that should be corrected
at once. A dose of Chamberlain's
Tablets will do it.

from Saturday's Pally.
Thecre are some few who are fool
ish enough to believe that "recon
struction" is a term that applies to
only cities and manufacturing com
munities and not to towns like our
own citv. Far be it from so. 1 he
reconstruction nolicv advocated by
big Interests of the nation is equally
vital to towns and villages as to ti;e
cities with towering skyscrapers.
And reactionary policies will provj
suicidal to either.

prices be upon us? To pay high
prices in the carrying on of our busi
ness meais we will receive high

Plattsmouth is no reactionary. A
building campaign has been going
steadily forward this year, including
the expenditure of 540,000 for street
improvements and a neat sum for
the new Alfa-Maize mill now in pro
cess of construction, to say nothing
of residences and farm buildings
that have gone up in the past few
months. Local contractors' time is
engaged far ahead. But, still, the
demand for rental properties con
tinues. And higher wages means
higher rents for modern property
which, by the way. is about the only
kind in demand any more. People
are growing more and more to in

MOVING INTO NEW HOME.
From Saturday's Daily.
Peter Herold and family are to
day moving into their new home.
Some time ago the Herolds had the
house which has stood there for
years torn down and this summer
there has been in the process of
erection a new modern houre. Bert
Coleman has had charge of" the
building cf the house and has done
very good Job on it. The house
will be an entirely modern one and
will make a fine home for Mr. Her
old and family. The Herolds have
been living in the house owned by
M. S. Briggs and will be delighted
to be able to move into their own
home.
PURCHASES A HOME.
Carl It. Dalton and wife have
purchased for themselves a new
heme which they will occupy as
soon as they can get it in readiness.
The place they have bought is one
which has belonged to Dr. Alfred
Cildv.cll and is in the south part
of town. Carl has been in the army
for two years and only recently re
turned to Plattsraouth. This , will
make a very pleasant home for
them and one which they will en
joy. It certainly looks fine to see
si'.r young men coming back from
the army and settling down to
make themselves useful citizens

He is now with the Transportation

him when he finally does get here.

On stepping into the meat mar

All the woodwork and counters have
been given a coat of white. The

There is not anything like so
many deaths from this disease now
as before Chamberlain's Colic and

nothing short of a sensation at the

At 2:00 o'clock the company of
friends of the departed started on
their way by car to Springfield
which was the former home. They
were accompanied by Rev. Hunter
who conducted the services held in

There were many beautiful floral

GETS FINGER MASHED.

Yesterday Joe Hunter, one of the

had the mistfortune to get one of

ing his duties at that place, mt.
Hunter was working in a special
car when in some war an overhead
tank fell and in so doing fell upon
Mr. Hunter's hand and mashing the
ittle finger of his left hand onto an
iron table. The finger was crushed
quite badly. Supt. Baird immed
iately took him in his car to the
office of the company physician
where the wound was dressed. It is
hoped that the finger can be saved
and probably can be unless a turn
for the worse is taken.

That is the question buzzing in

nerable point in the premier's ar
mor. Neither Will Approve Plan.
Pre-supposing that Xorthcliffe is
making a sincere effort to point out
a plan of conciliation with Ireland,
the most cogent thing he says is
that neither the extreme unionists
ncr the Sinn Feiners will approve
("immediately" or at any other
time ) of his- plan.
Add to this hi3 idea cf an Irish
parliament in which each of the two
states of the "Irish federation" has
equal representation and it becomes
more apparent that the Sinn Feiners
will have to reverse their whole
program of representation' accord
ing to population to agree to his
schemes.
Moreover, the Sinn Feiners al
ready have repudiated the principle
of their representatives sitting in
the British parliament which North
cliffe urges, this being tantamount
to recognition of British sover
eign ty.
From the Unionist side lurk
equally insurmountable difficulties.
Northc-lifTe's proposal presupposes a
relaxation of British rule to the di
minishing point, notably the reduc
tion of the office of lord lieutenant
to a nominal status "shorn of po
litical character." He also rele
gates to the Irish parliament the
power to impose and collect direct
taxation as well as the fixing aud
collection of excise and customs du
ties. This would further weaken
British power in Ireland.
