James M. Stone who has been bo 111 at the hospital at Lincoln follow ing the operation under which he went is reported as being much Im proved and it is thought that bar ring some accident he will In time be restored to his customary health. R. D. Taylor was a visitor in Oma ha twice in the hours making last Monday and each time taking a lead of stock for Win.

Mrs. Robert Chapman has been caring for the patient and sees that she gets every need. James Chappell was shelling and delivering corn to the Nehawka Farmers Elevator Company, on Tues day of this week, notwithstanding the intense cold, and as a matter of fact, the corn Bhelled better.

Fulton and wife, Hans Stoll and wife. Mra. Elizabeth Flemme. Harold Kimlon and family of Wayside, Ne braska, who are visiting here and Earl Cox and family. They enjoyed trie evening In playing pinochle, and also were served by a most delightful luncheon. Hunters Abusive. Some time since a party of Oma ha hunters came to the vicinity of Nehawka and asked a certain farmer if they could hunt on his place. Per mission was given and the outline of the farm was definitely explained, and the hunters went to hunt, but crawled over the fence Into another field, and was driven out by the irate farmer. Later another party came and asked the same farmer to hunt, but permission was withheld, and they went out along the road any way and assayed to hunt but a eon of the farmer happening along, told them to refrain from tresspass ing on the farm. A wordy war en sued with threats of the Omaha party to hunt any way, but the son who was somewhat exercised by this time, told them to get out or he would use summerary means to see that they did when they departed and have not returned. The Omaha parties who have raided the Cass county farms for many years past, taking what was loose and pulling the remainder loose, taking grapes, walnuts and hunting without per mission, received a check when the game wardens apprehended some 201 of them. The many fines seem to have done them some good. Babe Getting Along Better. The little six months old babe of Mr. and Mrs. Martin Ross, which was so serious with an attack of pneumonia and who was taken to the Lincoln General hospital at Lin coln last Friday, is reported as be ing some better at this time. Mrs. S. J. Rough, the grandmother, was over to Lincoln over the week end, llfif! weather such as this week has been, re quires good heavy substantial Winter clothes and goods.

I was so consti pated I could almost feel the poisons accumulating in my system. "My daughter got me to try Sar gen, and now after three bottles and a bottle of pills I eat three good meals a day, the terrible pain is gone from my side, and constipation doesn't bother me at all. My daughter and I never miss a chance to praise the grand medicine." Mrs. Andrew Lar sen. 2014 South Tenth street, Coun cil Bluffs. Iowa. Weyricli & Hadraba. Agents. assisting in the care of the little one, returned home last Monday evening and reported the little one consider able better. Business Satisfactory. Henry Wessell who has been in the hardware business in Nehawka nearly since it was a town, speaking of business during the past year, said that the store had enjoyed a good business, probably not In as large a volume as just following th war, but that the business had been very satisfactory during the past year, and that he was looking for a better year in 1930. With good crops of corn and of a good quality, while at other places there was but a meager yield, he could not see but what the price would be satis factory some time during the com ing year. The winter always brings a rush of marketing, but should this reduce the price of the grain, it would be higher later on. Making Good Improvement. Mrs. John Opp who is at the hos pital at Lincoln where she recently underwent an operation for her health is doing nicely and showing very satisfactory improvement, and is hoping to be allowed to return home during the latter portion of this week. Doing a Nice Business. A letter from Mrs. Albert Wolfe, who is at this time visiting in Long Beach, California, and a guest at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Chauncey Schupp, who have been making their home there for some time, wriets she enjoyed a very pleasant visit with them and that they are engaged in the restaurant business and are do ing nicely.
