SMALL WRECK ON MISSOURI PACIFIC This morning an extra south bound freight while a short distance out of Oreapolis was delayed by a small wreck occasioned when an axle one one of the cars was broken and hung the train up. The wreck closed the line and it was necessary to send to Omaha for a derrick to assist in clearing the track of the car and. op ening up the line for travel. As the result of the mix up there will be no passenger trains operated over this line this afternoon although it is hoped to have the track cleared and ready for operation by time for the 7:39 northbound passenger. Dollars and Cents Counting it only in dollars and cents, how- much did that last cold cost you? A man may not always stop work when he has a cold, but perhaps it would be better if he did. 'It takes about tea days to get com pletely rid of a cold under the usual 'treatment. That time can be much shortened by taking Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and proper care of yourrelf, in fact, a bottle of this remedy in the house is a mighty 'good investment during the winter and spring months.
