DUSTERH0FF INTERIORS are frequently
SELECTED FOR
Church and
Residence
where the finest and most highly idealized type
of Interior Decorating is involved, as in some of
the finest churches and residences we have finish
ed in the state., '
The preference for DTJSTERH0FF INTER
IORS in such cases is due to the steadily growing
conviction that DUSTERH0FF INTERIORS rep
resent the highest standards of interior decorating.
It is due also in great measure to the feel
ing of security inspired by our policy
to do interior decorating of the finest qual
ity only and of such design and performance as
to provide an exceptional value in DESIGN and
DURABILITY beyond the most extreme require

Another tragedy of railroading oc
curred this morning in the Burling
ton yards at Pacific Junction when
George W. Mullica, well known
Burlington railroader, had his head
severed beneath the wheels of a car
that he was engaged in switching
The victim of the accident wa3 a
brother of Mrs. R. D. Dalton and
Mrs. Joseph D. Parker of this city.
From what can be learned of the
accident it seems that Mr. Mullica
had jumped from a moving car and
started to run forward to throw the
switch for the car and In some man
ner fell, with his shoulders across
the track and before he could recover
from this position the wheels of one
car and the front trucks of another
of the cars had passed over his
body, completely severing the head
of the unfortunate man.
Mr. Mullica was a married man.
thirty-five years of age and the wife
and two little daughters, aged twelve
and five years, as well as the aged
mother, are left to mourn his death.
For several 3'ears Mr. Mullica was
the yardmaster in t he Junction yards
but about a month ago resigned this
position to resume switching and this
was followed 'by the tragedy of this
morning.
Mrs. It. D. Dalton, the sister de
parted this afternoon for the home
of the brother, as did Mr. J. D. Park
er, brother-in-law of Mr. Mullica and
the other members of the Parker
family will go over in the morning
to assist the family In their bereave

ESCAPED NEGRO NEAR HERE
From Monday's Dally.
Yesterday morning Sheriff C. D
Quinton received a message from Qus
Hyers at Lincoln, announcing that
Luther Richardson, a convict from
the stale penitentiary, who had been
working at the road camp near Lin
coln had made his escape sometime
between midnight Saturday and 5 a.
m. Sunday. The escaping man, who
is a negro, was reported to have made
his way out of Lincoln on No. 70, a
freight over the Burlington and was
headed east. Sheriff Quinton drove
to Pacific Junction and made a thor
ough search of the yards there but
was unable to secure any trace of
the uegro and then motored on into
Omah at. the request of Mr.- Hyers.
It was later learned that a man an
swering the description of Richard
son had been seen to board the ten
der of the locomotive on No. 23 yes
terday afternoon at Oreapolis and it
is thought that the man remained in
hiding out all day until he could
find a good chance io get on Into
Omaha where his home was prior to
being sent to the pen and where he
has three sisters living.
SURE HAD SOME EXPERIENCE
From Tuesday's Dally.
Some time ago J. C. Snaveley, who
lives northwest of Union, Jiad some
experience with a twister which he
does not care to have occur again.
The weather was looking rather om
nious, and he thought-he would hur
ry and do the milking and return to
the house. He therefore was not
slow, but as' he was returning via
the barn and cribs, and was getting
under the fence, he was conscious of
the fierceness of the storm, though it
did not as much as bio whis hat off.
The milk was whipped almost entire
ly out or the pail, while a shed be
tween the barn and crib was blown
away, carried through the air and
deposited in t he field considerable
distance from the place where it was
picked up. Mr. Snaveley was pleased
that he escaped when there was such
force manifested within so short a
distance of him. ' . " ' -

As proof that motor trucks and au
tomobiles are dangerous to life and
limb In numerous ways other than
the fact that they go over embank
ments, turn turtle, plunge into the
ditch, etc., is evident from theh ex
perience of Peter Opp of Nehawka
last. Saturday morning. To tell the
story in detail requires many words,
like the description given to a wash
board by a mail order house catalog.
There has been considerable sick
ness in the Opp home this summer
and the victim of the accident has
been the first member of the family
to arise in the morning, start th
fire, do the chores and quite often as
sist with the morning meal. At or
near the hour of six on the morning
stated above, James Palmer, the stock
buyer was loading a truck load of
hogs at the stock yards chute to
deliver in Nebraska City. Mr. Opp.
having a littU spare time, sauntered
over there and whan everything was
ready for the start, Mr. Palmer had
difficulty in pulling away from the
chute as the wheels would spin. Mr.
Opp volunteered to help by pushing
and unknown to Mr. Palmer, who, to
get a better start, reversed the en
gine and Mr. Opp was squeezed be
tween the bed of the truck and the
chute. The injuries were to his hip
and side, which is very 'painful and
has kept him to his bed since, except
when t is necessary for him to be
placed in a chair to regain circula
tion of the blood.
The noise created by the engine
prevented Mr. Palmer from hearing
his cry and he drove away to' the
city unaware that Mr. Opp had been
hurt and knew nothing of it until he
returned. However, John Opp heard
his father's cry and hastened to him.
He and Mr. Wessel carried Mr. Opp
home. While the injury is such as
to cause great pain it is thought the
patient will be able to be up in a few
days. It is fortunate that the truck
did not go back further as it would
have meant more serious results.

THE RESULT REPUTATION
If a surgeon-specialist is famous
by the results of his operations, the
patient trusts himself under his
knife. If a remedy is famous by
its results, the customer buys it
without hesitation. The results
count. Thirty years of Triner's
American Elixir of Bitter Wine mean
millions of results. Kindly read the
following letter: "Springfield, Ill
March 15, 1920. I must write you
and thank you for mailing me well
by that great medicine, Triner's
American Elixir of Bitter Wine. I
was sick for a long time, but I am
all right now, thanks to your good
remedy. I always will have a good
word for it and keep it in my medi
cine chest. Mrs. J. Potnik." And
we are sure that you, too, in case
of constipation, poor appetite, head
ache, nervousness and other stom
ach disorders will go to your drug
gist or dealer in medicines and ask
for Triner's American Elixir of Bit
ter Wine. Try also Triner's Angelica
Bitter Tonic, Triner's Liniment and
