George Waitt. South Gardiner.

SAYS SHE HAD HER
SHARE OF TROUBLE
For Five Years Des Moines Woman
Got No Relief from Her Misery
Feels Fine Now.
"I am so well pleased with Tunlac
that I wish everyone knew its value
like I do." said Mrs. T. P. Kallard,
of 1520 Locust street. Des Moines,
Iowa.
"I have certainly had my share cf
suffering. for I had been in bad
health for nearly five years, troubled
in one way or another just about all
the time. My appetite bad almost en
tirely left me and I could eat barely
enough to keep me alive. My stomach
was disordered and my heart would
palpitate fearfully and I would get
so short of breath that I felt like I
wou'd choke to death. I ruffered
dreadfully from headaches, and if I
stooped over I became so dizz that
I almost fell down. "My nerves seem
ed to be all unstrung and frequently
I became so excited that I dropped
everything I had in my hands.
"But Tanlac has restored me to as
good health as I enjoyed years ago.
I feel perfectly well in every respect
and nothing at all ever troubles me
row. My appetite ha returned and
what I eat digests properly. My
hetrt action is normal and my
breathing is free and eas. The head
aches and dizzy spells tire all gone
and my nerves are steady. It is a
pleasure for me to recommend Tan
lac. and every time I tell anyone
about it. I feel that I am doing them
a favor."
Tanlac is sold in Plattsmouth by
F. G. Fricke & Company; in Mur

EX-GOVERNOR SHEL
DON VISITOR
Former Nebraska Executive Who Has
for Past Twelve Years Been a
F-csident of South, Home.
Yesterday afternoon George. Law
eon Sheldon came over from Xehawka
where he is visiting with his rela
tives and friends and spent a sby3rt
time here visiting with his acquaint
ances at the court house and over the
city.
Mr. Sheldon has for the past twelve
years been making his home in the
south, owning an extensive planta
tion rear Wayside. Mississippi, which
is located in the famous delta coun
try along the Mississippi and one
of the most fertile spots in the state,
iie is in the north to visit with his
two daughters who are attending
the university cf Xebraska and to re
r. w onee more the acquaintances of
tl e old friends and neighbors in this
por ior. cf Xebraska.
Tncirtently Mr. Shelucn is one of
the legislators of Mississippi as he
was elected to the state legislature
by the overwhelming vote of his
:i--igabors altnough he i- '-till a re
publican in politics and which is not
tl-.e mos' popular political doctrine in
the state he is now residing in.
In passirg it is a pleasure to re
mark liuH in the passing of time the
history of Xebraska has recorded no
more fearless or able chief executive
than George Lawson Sheldon and his
term from 1906 to 1909 marked the
most progressive period in the history
of tiie state and his term marks the
breaking of the power of the vast
railroad interests that o:ioe dictated
to the state executive and-legislators
on what they should or should not do.
Among the measures that were enact
ed i-r.Jer his administration were the
anti-pass and the two cent railroad
fare laws which have stood in force
until Ihe interstate commerce com
mission took away from the state the
right to regulate the rates in the
state. Th" people of Cass county and
of Xebraska have a right to feel
proud of the record mudc by George
."iieion and the Mississippi commun
ity i.; fortunate in having him as a
resident.

Home Burned Saturday Night
Last Saturday night, while Robert
Shrader and family were away from
home they being at the home of Ho
mer Shrader. where Geo. W. Shrader
is sick, their home burned, and was
noticed being on fire about 9:30.
The neighbors immediately gathered,
but there being no means of fighting
the fire, the home was entirely con
sumed. There was some insurance
thereon, but not enough in any way
to pay. any per cent hardly of the
lo:s which was near $5,000. The
housw had been constructed but about
two years and was a bodern home
with the exception cf light and wa
ter. This comes as a heavy loss on
Mr. Shrader and especially when the
price of farm products are at such a
low level.
Visiting in the City.
Mrs. Harry Graves of Central City,
v. as a visitor in Union for the past
two weeks, coming down a week ago
last Monday and visiting at the home
of he parent?. W. H. Marks and wife,
end was joined by Mr. Graves last
Stindriy who stayed until Monday and
then departed for his woik again,
which is that of a sale-man.
Have Moved to the West.
Last Saturday A. J. Loveless and
Clyde Loveless loaded their .car of
household goods, stock and farming
implements and had the same dis
patched for the west, where they ex
pect to make their home near Arriba.
Colo. The tar was accompanied by
Wm. Sikes. who will also remain
there. Monday morning Messrs. A.
J. Loveless and Clyde Loveleso de
parted for the west in their auto and
truck and will be joined by the folks
after thev arrive in their new home.
Getting Into the Work.
The Rev. Samuel Miller, who re
cently moved to Union and accepted
t lie charge here, coming from Peru,
delivered two very fine discourses at
the Baptist church last Sunday. Ir
has taken Rev. Miller some time to
get moved and straightened up at
hems and he is now ready to take
up the work here in earnest and will
try in the near future to make visits
to all the home of the congregation
frii in fact to ail others with the end
in view of doing all the work for the
community possible.
Preached at Wabash Sunday.
The smallpox which has prevailed
at Waba-h for some time has some
what passed and last Sunday the
Rev. W. A. Taylor, who had not
gained bis entire strength, delivered
two services at the church there,
which were gladly received. Monday
Y.r- was not feeling so well on account
of the added exertion, but is hoping
that he may be better soon.
Purchased the Graber Farm.
C. II. Taylor of Omaha, was a
viitor in Union for a short time last
Taesopy and attended the sale which
w::: given by Uncle Simon Gruher at
Vhirh he purchased the farm of Mr.
Gvuter, paying therefor $119 per acre
fcr the same. The land is very fer
tile and being very productive, seems
well worth the price which it sold
for.
Enjoyed an Excellent Time.
Miss Mary Becker cn last week
gave her friends ci" the Epworth
League and other a most enjoyable
valentine party, the affair being at
the Reiker hall. Monday evening.

With the end in view of benefitting
the entire community and having
f-'und its incipiency in the schools
for which we have to thank fo this
tl-.ing which premises much for the
village of Union, the interest grew
until at the last meeting the facili
ties for containing a large gathering
did not exist at the school and the
meeting was held at the M. W. A.
h.iii. The meeting was one of much
irterest and a very delightful pro
gram was given the people. The op
ening number of the game "was mu
sic hy the community orchestra, af
ter which a patriotic play was given
ir which there was demonstrated
much merit and ability.
Readings were given by Miss Sarah
Upton and Helen Graves, the latter
cf Central City. A double musical
