This trait in iadividuals has ions been recognized as a sign of thirst. :o: It is a noteworthy fact that in all the strikes in the last two years based on the theory that "we don't jrive a damn for public opinion", not one has achieved even a suggestion. :o:- With potatoes 10 cents a pound yi!l sugar at 20, the family man doesn't need a da'ylight saving law to ,'et him out early in the morning this year. :o: We have increased our manufac turing potential very largely during the war and unless this equipment is to be scrapped a market must be found for the out put. :o: Hungary is apparently destined to become an agrarian state like Bul garia, and may be expected to be self-sufficient in foodstuffs after the harvested her next crop. :o:- It begins to look a though Mars had failed to keep his date with u?. Very well, then. Let's pay attention to somebody else. Breaking dates is something Venus never did. :o: Carranza's alarm over the forn.a ti"ii of a republic in Sonora is only exceeded by the complacency with which he viewed Villa's outrages against Mexico's best neighbors. :o: If. you meet up with an old friend, the Hoover democrat now, and talk to him a few minutes he will tell you sorrowfully that he fears Hoov er isn't the man he thought he was.

The chances are it 'will cost more. Over alls are the natural habiliments of a healthy appetite. :o: Recently a maniac killed a vestry man in a crowded New York church and several Plattsmouth men are pointing to that as an excuse for not attending divine services; they thinlr it's too risky. They say you are in danger even if you are saved. :o: The next attack on the. low cost of living, we understand, is to be directed at the high cost of cigarettes and cigars. Everybody will quit smoking cigars and cigarettes, and will combine to run up the cost of the working man's chewing tobacco. :o: In the first 25,000 returned bal lots in the Literary Digest's presi dential straw vote, W.

NEBRASKA EE g i i THE WORLD WILL SURVIVE v-From Vladivostok around the earth to Tokio the human race is one shrill scream. An impressionist sketch shows Russia "Red"; Hun gary changing from -"Red" to "White" over night. Germany Is, of course, still black. And England, still of course, is blue. Frante is purple in 'the face.' And America either red or yellow, according to the political angle from which she Is viewed. The smaller fry shade off Into colors that only women ajd ar tists understand. But everyone agrees on one thing: the world is going to pot. At least this is settled. But Is it? Does not a longer vision help to cor rect our hysteria? The fact is that the modern world has exploded every hundred years and has always survived. America was discovered at the far end of the fifteenth century and the New Learn ing and the Reformation followed the discovery of the new world. We are reliably informed that these movements were frequently heralded as the finish. The death of Elizabeth in 1503 closed the great period of England's splendor. And the Puritans who followed could have given Mr. Palmer lessons in heresy hunting. x As the shades of the seventeenth century lengthened the glory or France under the Grand Monarque faded amid a disastrous war. The France of Richelieu, Colbert, Racine, Mollere passed away. The French revolution closed the next century and exactly one. hun dred years after the death of Louis XIV, Napoleon met his Waterloo. The wprld war finishes another century and naturally everyone is ex cited about it. It is worth noticing in all this that in every case the permanent results came from beginnings that had no recognition at the time. Thus while the world regarded the court of Fer dinand and Isabella, Columbus died neglected. And a year before, Mar tin Luther had turned unnoted from the study of law to Join the Augus- tinian order. Virginia was settled three years after the death of Eliza beth, but who regarded John Smith and his little band. The cronwing of the first king of Prussia in the first year of the eighteenth century made no impression on the world, whose eyes were fixed on the glory of France. For us, who have un crowned the last king of Prussia, it is of more significance. The French revolution, with all its heralding, was outstripped in practical results by the industrial revolution that got no heralding at all. Napoleon mad 3 a pretty stjr for a time, but the spinning jenny and the power loom made the modern world. Let us calm ourselves, then, and get on with our knitting. It has hap pened before and will happen again. We are probably betting on the wrong horse, anyway. One hundred years from now all will be the same or different. Louisville Courier Journal. Can you imagine any of the hus bands of twenty-five years f rom Jtow longing for some bread like motuv.r used to send out and buy? :o:- It will be noticed that the paper shortage did not become acute until they began using the stuff for sule leather. -tor- While we're already togged up in overalls, there seems no better time than now to bust the white collar profiteers by adding the red bandan na handkerchief. :o: CASS COUNTY FARM FOB SALE For sale, a farm of 125 acres, well improved, hog tight, 11 acres prair ie, good house, barn, hay shed, ce ment walks, garage, granary, corn crib, wash house, wood house, " cob house, chicken house, shop, machine shed.

MRS, GALLAGHER KNEW WHAT TO DO Experience She'd Had Before Taught Her the Value of Tanlac Suffering Over. . "When I felt myself going down this summer I knew exactly what to do, for I had taken Tanlac before and it fixed me up so fine I knew it would do so again," said Mrs. Bar bara Gallagher, who lives at 1000 Plum St., Lincoln, Nebr. "For many years," she continued, "I suffered agonies from rheumatism and never knew what it was to be without pains or aches somewhere in my system. My head ached like it would burst and I would get so dizzy at. times that everything seemed to be whirling around till I would feel like I was going to fall. My nerves were in such a dreadful state that I would roll and toss half the night without being able to sleep a wink, and my appetite was so weak that I would have attacks of indigestion and sometimes they would nearly put me out of business. "One of my friends advised me strongly to try Tanlac and I could see a marked improvement right af ter I started on it. My nerves grew nnift so I run Id sleep better, the headaches and dizzy spells passed away, my appetite increased and my digestion soon became all right. Tanlac soon fixed me up all right and I have enjoyed splendid health ever since. Whenever I feel the least bit out of the way I take a little Tanlac." Tanlac is sold in Plattsmouth by F. G. Fricke and Company and the leading druggist in every town.
