Lincoln Man Says This
Remarkable Medicine
Has Made Him As Fresh
and Fit As A Tvo Year
Old.
Each consecutive day brings
many interesting statements about
the merits of Karnak, the remark
able new medicine that is selling: so
rapidly here.
Among the latest to testify is H.
E. Sheerer, well-known steam-fitter,
living at 510 N. 14th St., Lincoln,
Neb., who says:
"Speaking from my own experi
ence with Karnak, I'd hank my last
dollar that this new medicine will
help anyone who tries it. I had
lumbago or rheumatism through
my back, shoulders and both arms
which caused me terrible pain. It
just seemed like a kink' would
catch me, first in one place, and
then in another. I would just near
ly double up with pain at times, so
I could hardly hold a wrench or a
piece of pipe. I also suffered from
nervousness and constipation, and
my sleep was so restless and brok
en that mornings I didn't feel worth
a cent.
"After trying everything I knew
of, Mr. Engleking told me what
Karnak had done for him; that's
how I came to try it. Well, sir,
four bottles have made a lean
sweep of my troubles. I haven't
an ache or pain now, sleep as sound
as a dollar, and mornings I feel as
fresh and fit as a two-year-old. I
have gained weight, too, and am
in the pink of condition in every
way. Karnak is the greatest med
icine I ever heard of, and I cant
sav half enough for it."
Over 500,000 bcttles of Karnak
sold in four states in ten months.
Karnak is sold in Plattsmouth
exclusively by F. G. Fricke & Co.,
ind by the leading druggist in ev
ery town.

Floors For the Chicken House
Eight inches of cinders, gravel or
crushed rock covered with about two
inches of rich cement will make a
cheap but ideal lloor for the poultry
house. The porous material under
the cement will break up the soil
capillarity and tend to keep the floor
dry. The filling should be tamped
until it forms a solid base for the
concrete. Hollow tile forms a more
satisfactory base for the cement and
only one-half inch of cement is need
ed to cover a carefully laid floor. It
is more expensive than the other
filler. It should be, laid on a layer of
sand and covered with rich cement to
make a smooth surface which is more
easily cleaned. A slope of four inches
in twenty feet from the back to the
front of the house will be enough to
keep the litter evenly distributed
over the entire floor. This slope will
practically eliminate the disagreeable
task of scratching the little out from
under the dropping boards of the or
dinary hen house. There is no better
time to improve the chicken house
than just before the pullets are put
into their winter quarters.

From Tus(!fl''s Daily
It is rumoied that the mixed quar
tette which represented Plattsmouth
last night on the program at KMA,
the May Seed and Nursery Co., at
Shenandoah, Iowa, were somewhat
mixed as to their directions. They
admitted they had lost their way to
Shenandoah, but to lose their way
home is inexcusable. They blame
the driver, but he shifts the respon
sibility by saying that he followed
direc tions of the "mixed" quartette.
At any rat?, word comes from
Iowa that after driving two hours at
a good clip through the mud and
rain, they awakened a residenter to
discover that they were two miles
farther from home than when they
started. One of the party offers the
suggestion that they were merely re
hearsing such songs as "It Ain't
Gona Rain No Mo'," "Three O'Clock
in the Morning," "Where Do We Go
From Here" and "We Won't Be
Home Until Morning," under correct
environment. The driver admits that
he will not take night drives here
after under B. A. McElwain's direc
tion unless Bert has a lantern with
him to assist in reading signs.
Regardless of whether the rumors
are correct or false, the entire party
was seen arriving in town about 7
a. m. and one of them was heard to
remark with a sigh, "Oh, Min!"
They must have been "cookoo."

NEW MASONIC
INFIRMARY OPENS
WITH NEW STAFF
I HI
Miss Alice Goff, Formerly Head
Nurse at Wilson Hospital in
Neb. City, is Head Nurse.
: From Tuesday's Daily
The new Masonic Home infirmary
which was formally dedicated by the
officers of the grand lodge here Sat-
urday, September 5, will in the next
few days be placed in active opera
tion by the commencement of the
transfer of the patients who are at
the Home in a bedfast condition, to
the new building that has been
placed for the care of the sick and
. bedfast members of the Masonic fra
ternity in mis Btaie.
The infirmary will be in charge of
IMiss Alice Goff of Nebraska City,
who has been the head nurse of the
Wilson hospital at Nebraska City and
a trained nurse of several years' ex-
perience and whose success in the
.xeDrasKa city nospnai nas recom
mended her to the board of the Ma
sonic Home and led to her selection
as the active head of the infirmary
as far as the care and treatment of
the patients will be concerned.
Assisting Miss Goff in the hospital
will be Miss Dorothy Speck as day
nurse and Miss Irma Bailey as night
nurse at the infirmary, building, as
the patients are not so numerous at
this time and can be cared for very
handily by the regular force.
The arrangement of the rooms and
their facilities makes the handling
of the patients a great deal easier
and they can be cared for in the new
building in a more efficient manner
as every facility for the comfort and
care of the sick and ailing has been
provided for by the Masons in the
new building.
William P. Evers, superintendent
of the Home, will have the infirmary
building under his administrative
service as well as the Home itself
and will attend to the details of the
management of the entire Home
plant while Miss Goff has the super
vision of the nursing and treatment
of the patients in the infirmary.
Miss Goff, the new head nurse, is
expected this evening to take up her
duties and the task of removing the
bedfast will be made as soon as the
weather will permit their transfer
from the Home building, while those
at hospitals out in the state will be
brought here as the circumstances
of their cases will permit.
The new building is a beauty both
from the standpoint of an artistic
ally planned building as well as one
that has every comfort for the care
of the patients that may be placed
there and will assure the very best
of care and every convenience for the
sick folks.
The new head nurse at the infirm
ary is one of the popular young la
diea of Nebraska City, where she wan
born and reared and she has been a
very active worker in the First Pres
byterian church of that city during
her residence there.

WEEPING WATER

Two Young Men Draw Down Fines
as Result of Overindulgence
in Intoxicants Saturday.
From Monday's Daily
This morning at the judicial tri
bunal of County Judge A. H. Dux-
bury was heard the case of the state
of Nebraska vs. Virgil Dixon, charged
with transportation of liquor and
Milton Prall, Jr., charged with pos
session of intoxicating liquor.
The young men had been enroute
to their home at Weeping Water
Saturday afternoon and had proceed
ed as far as the Glen Perry farm
along the highway south of this
city when the effects of the intoxi
cants that they had imbibed became
to great for them and they stopped
their motor vehicle, too much over
come to proceed on to their home and
thereby led to their downfall.
Sheriff E. P. Stewart was notified
of the fact that the car was out
along the highway and at once pro
ceeded out to look over the matter
and was accompanied by County At
torney W. G. Kieck and on their ar
rival there they discovered the two
young men in very bad shape. The
parties were brought on into this city
to be cared for as guests at the coun
ty bastile until they could recover
sufficiently to face the machinery of
justice. ' '
This morning after the evidence
was offered to the court the judg
ment was passed on the young men
of serving sixty days in the county
jail, Dixon for transportation of
liquor and who also had his car con
fiscated, while Prall drew down a
sentence for possession of liquor.
From Tuesday's Daily
It was with the greatest of satis
faction that the members of the con
gregation of the First Methodist
church of this city as well as the
citizens at large learned this morn
ing that the conference of the Meth
odist church of Nebraska, in session
at Lincoln, voted yesterday afternoon
to return the Rev. Frank Emory
Pfoutz to the charge in this city
that he has filled so efficiently in the
past two years.
The marked ability of Rev. Pfoutz
in the ministry has attracted the at
tention of a large number of the
churches of the state and with this
fact it was at first feared that with
these conditions prevailing it might
be impossible to hold the genial pas
tor here for another year, with the
nossible offers that mieht come from
larger churches.
That the conference has decided to
heed the wish of the Plattsmouth
church to retain their pastor is most
gratifying to everyone in the com
munity and assures that the church
here will continue with its vigorous
leader as in the past year.
During the residence of the Pfoutz
family here they have made many
friends not only in the church but
in the community at large who are
delighted with the fact that this
splendid family will continue to
make this city their home for anoth
er year, at least.
While the Methodist church has
had many very able leaders and de
vout teachers of the Word as pre
sented by this church, they have had
none more able than Rev. Pfoutz
whose splendid work in the pulpit
has been an inspiration to hundreds
of the people of the community.
With his church work and ability as
a preacher of the gospel. Rev. Pfoutz
has a splendid personality that has
made him many additional friends
among the people of Plattsmouth.
The community welcomes Rev.
Pfoutz and his family to our city for
the coming year and trust that it
may be as pleasant as the past asso
ciations have been in their life here
in Plattsmouth.
