True' Friendship Worth While
S'jme time since we were asked by
the Rev. A. G. Hollowell, the theii
pastor of the Christian church, Jo
teach a class in the Pible school at
Murray. This we accepted and have
since been endeavoring to do as well
as we could. We should have been
pleased to have done better, ar.d
shall keep that end in view. On
Christmas day we were presented
with a very handsome gold watch
and chain, as an expression of the
friendship of the members of tbe
class and other friends. We were
not coming only but for the purpose
of working with the school ajid with
the many excellent people of Mur
ray. Still we are not unmindful of
the friendliness which has prompted
the people of the class, anel of Mur
ray, in making this present to us.
We shall cherish it as an expression
of their friendship, winch is some
thing that gold cannot purchase. In
expressing our thanks for the very
beautiful present and our pleasure
of the friendship behind tbe gift, let
us get behind the liible school and
the class and make it a force in this
community for good. Again thank
ing you, 4 am,

motiey. Wo have hundreds of letters
from nil c'as.es of peonle in all walk
o. life which h:y stress upon the fact
th.-t the petients had spent much
money in vain for treatments and
. remedies ar.d that only Triner's prep
arations gave tl.eni the desired relief.

SANTA'S WORK
"Well, Roy of tbe North,' I'm off
ngnin. I've got a great deal to do to
night, you know "
Boy of the North
is Santa's pet dog.
"B o w-w o w, I
understand," said
Boy of tbe North.
So off went
Santa Claus to
visit the fchops as
he bad m any
things Rtlll which
he had promised
to take to them.
Sometimes be
got letters later ou
asking for the
things that boys
and girls saw In
the shops, but
that was all right.
"In a Row."
as he had sin ar
rangement with every store where he
toik toys that souie of these things
in tbe shops he was to take on Christ
mas eve to the children.
For many of the toys he left In the
f-iiops just to show tbe children whnt
the toys were like and so they'd knw
which oues to ask for, if they' hadn't
already made up their minds.
Some of the toys he left for this
purpose and some he left for decora
tion. What packs he had to unload This
evening! He hod some' more grocery
stores to leave and some little toy
grocery men to put outside of these
toy stores.
He left all kinds of sets of fur
niture, chairs, pouches, brass leds.
He left dolls' houses with elevators
going up and down in them. He left
some toy reindeer.
lie undid any number of bundles
hi led with trains and tracks and tun
nels and stations, and these he ar--anged
too.
He niiuJe a great shelf all around
one store and he put wooden animals
i.ii it in a row.
Then be fixed some machinery so
:heso animals would parade around
v.nd around this shelf, one right after
tbe other, the whole distance of the
shelf all the way around.
He left some circus toys and many
animals. He left wenideu animals In
wooden cages, such as bears and lions,
so they looked ne though they were
traveliHfr-with a circus.
"Then I've been aked to fix funny
mirrors in, one shop." Santa said,
ebiu-kling to himself, "so that when
ehildren look in one of tbe mirrors
they'll look very short and fat, and
when they look in the other mirror
they will leok very broad.
"I've been asked, too. to leave three
toy bears, of three different sizes, to
greet tbe children In one of the other
stores. They are to be like the three
bears in the cild. old story. .
"Then I've b(H'i) especially asked to
build a great big shoe so it will look
like the shoe in which that old woman
lived so many years asro in the edd
Mother Goose story the children all
love.
"I've been asked to build that for
one of the shops so the children can
ome and get inside it and can slide
rigid down it and land out of the toe
part, which I'll leave npon.
"I've got lots of animals to leave
In all tbe shops. Oh. how many toy
animals I did make this year. And
I've made balloons, and creatures with
eyes which move from side to side!
"I've certainly had a lot of work
this year to do. And I've been asked
to leave so many books.
"I've got some fine buttons with my
picture on them for some of the child
ren. "And every child must be thought
of. Sometimes I think I'd like to
give every child
every toy I make!
'T.ut that would
be an endless, end
less job, and I've
always got to
make toys for new
children each
year.
"How soon the
babies do grow
big enough to
want toys! Gra
cious me ! I'm sur
prised to see how
they prow up so
quickly and ire
all ready for me.
."Now I've got
one more bundle
Great Big Shoe.
to take around this
evening and then I'm through until to
morrow night though of course all
day tomorrow I must be making more
toys."
So Santa Claus undid another bundle
filled with drums and pianos and
organs with pipes, and cornets, and all
sorts of musics toys, many of which
he had tied with ribbons.
And then Santa Clans went home
when he was all finished, ready for
another day of making toys and yet
another evening to leave toys at the
shops.

FACT
Local Evidence
Evidence that can be verified.
Fact is what we want.
Opinion is not enough.
Opinions differ.
Here's a Plattsmouth fact.
You can test it.
J. B. Patridge, Sth and Locuft
streets, says: "Some years ago I was
bothered a great deal on account of
the bad condition of my kidneys,
caused by hard work on the farm in
my younger days. My kidneys acted
very freely, at times, causing me to
get up a great deal during the night.
At these times I was so bad I could
hardly straighten. I had to walk
with the aid of two canes. Not long
after I commenced using Doan's Kid
ney Pills 1 was well and I have not
needed to take them any more. My
kidneys were strengthened and acted
regularly again. It has been several
jears since I have had to use a kid
ney remedy and I give Doan's the
credit for the condition of my kid

Even granting that non-advertis-incr
stores could attract as many
buyers as the advertising ones, the
latter would mf.ke the more money,
because buyers would come knowing
exactly what they wanted and not
take up nearly so much clerk time,
thereby reducing materially the over
head expense.
