A furnace is an investment. And it
should be a wise investment. One
that insures comfort and economy
over a long period of years.
WEIR. Furnaces have been manu
factured for more than forty years
and many of the first WEIRS are
still in active service. It is this kind
of service that has placed the WEIR
on the pinnacle of leadership and
has proven to the furnace industry
that WEIR Basic Principles of Con
truction are RIGHT.
The WEIR is the heaviest con
structed steel furnace on the Amer
ican market and although the first
cost is a trifle
more, it pays
large dividends
each year, by
saving tons of
fuel and deliver
ing pure, health
ful, moist air
throughout
your home.

From Wednesday's Daily
Mrs. R. G. Sward of this city, is
suffering from the effects of a very
severe accident that she sustained on
Monday while attending a family re
union and picnic of her relatives at
Alexandria, Nebraska.
The day was being spent in out

of the accident reaching this city, it
is stated that Mrs. Sward was swing
ing in one of the large rope swings
when the rope broke and she fell a
short distance to the ground, alight

fracture of the right ankle. The
injury has been most painful and
will keep the patient confined to
her room for the next few weeks and
gives her a great deal of pain as well
as inconvenience.
The accident came as a most un
pleasant ending of the reunion and
picnic and the friends here in this
city sympathize verw much with the
unfortunate lady in her affliciton.
