An Anecdote of Czar Reed. A characteristic Incident In the Ufa of Thomas B. Reed was recalled this week hv a Washington hostess, who entertained the former speaker at a dinner party. Borne time after the soup and before the coffee Mr. Reed disappeared, and It was believed that ha bad been called out for some con ference on a political matter. Hours after the dinner was over and the last guest bad departed, one of the family went to tho coat room and discovered, to ber surprise, the burly figure of the speaker, curled up In a cbalr, reading a book. As she stood watching him he finished the last page, regretfully laid down . the vol ume and studied tbe cover for a mo ment. Va bis eyes Anally left tho book and wandered up, be beheld bis hostess. "What Is tbe book?" she queried, with feminine tactfulness. "The Jungle Book; 1 never read It before, and I bad to finish It" A couple of youngsters of town came together last Friday evening and frooi the appearance of one of their faces, be must have got pretty badly jared; He says it wasn't fp-ir for the other fellow had a rock and threw it in his face, but just wait until his nose is all right. The Alliance Normal opened Monday morning with an enrollment of over one hundred, and by the beginning of next week will most certainly reach one hun dred and fifty. Those in attendance seem to be ambitiousand enthused with a desire to get all that is possible out of the school. We are glad to see them enter upon their work in this spirit and they are sure to derive a great benefit from the school, and our schools in turn will be filled with teachers capable of doing mure and better work for them. No teacher should let this opportunity pass, The school is conducted especially for the better-merit of teachers and it is a chance to become better equipped at a reason able expense. Supt. Fowler has recured able instruct ors. I hey have come with a desire and ambition to do all io their power to make the school a success and they should have the hearty co-operation of every teacher in Northwest Nebraska.

In the llrst openin of Oklahoma to set tlers in 1RHU, the editor of this paper was among the many seekers after fortune wh'i made the big race one line day in April. During his traveling about and I afterwads hiscaniping upon his claim, he encountered much bod water, which, to t gather with the severe heat, gave hiai a I very severe diarrhoea which it seemed almost impossible to check, and along in ' June the case became so had he expected to die. One day one of bis neighbors j brought him one small bottle of Cham i berlnin's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea i Remedy as a l,it hoie. A big dose was : given him while he was rolling about on the ground in great agony, and in a few minutes the dose was repeated, The flMx street of the medicine was soon no 1 liced and within an hour the patient was taking his first sound sleep for a fort night That one little bottle worked a complete cure, and lie cannot help hut feel grateful. The reason for bowel dis orders being at hand suggests this item. For sale by all Druggists. AUCTION SALE. I AT.

Mr. Cook shipped a cur load of horses Tuesday. They will go to Canada. Andrew's sunshine is sick this week and that accounts for so much cloudy weather. Messrs.

She has lettuce large enough for use. ftlr. and Mrs. Frank Lewis went to Crawford Monday, returning Saturday. Loin stayed here while they were gone. He went to .."rawford. Two of our hard workers went down to Crawford to ride the goat. We heard that Urn other time they rode the goat it rared a good bit. We suppose they rode a wild ne. Say Z-kiel, you must have a spite a gainst White River, Now you tried to make out that Clodfelter lived here, but you are greatly mistaken, for Clodfelter lives at Glen. Mr, Usntier, who lives in Arizona, has been looking after his interests in Sioux county, and shipiied two car loads of horses, lie will no with the horses and from there will go to his home in Ariz. Floyd Hngeriiian hud the misfortune to have the bail of the coal bucket fail and hit him on the side of the head.

Thev took him to Craw ford and he is gaining steadily. hvm and Blokhoms. War Bonnet Topics. Plenty of rain. Mr. Storyg visited Len Doul's Sunday.

Carl Zerbst has been working for Mr. John Plunkett for the past week. Bud Johnson was seen in these parts last week. His mother is better, glad to say. While in town Saturday I met so many Bodaro neighbors it seemed like old times. One of Zekiel's neighbors was at Robt. Keel's Sunday and attended our 8. 8. and preaching. It wn Mr. Lo Wilson. Oarretsnn and sons are moving their saw mill about 10 miles north west of e on a place held by Corwin Lewis in the Deul settlement We had 49 in at tendance Sunday and a buggy load arrived just as preaching was out. To bad they wsre to late. Come early next time-better to early tluin to late.. ALL Love to buy good goods at the lowest price possible, and the place to do this is at GERLACtl'S GENERAL STORE. In clothing, Gents furnishing, Goods, Boots and Shoes. We are ready to compete with the world, and the way to prove it, is to give us a trial. "Come and see us any way and be social." GERLACH'S STORE TO THE PUBLIC: You will find the new firm at the old Marsteller stand ready to serve you. It shall be our earnest endeavor to please all customers in our treatment of them, and to merit a share of their patronage. We respectlully solicit a trial from yon. The readers of "War Bonnet Topics'' will have to thank Mr. Ktel mostly for it as I have to depend on him most of the time to send it to town for me as we live so far off of the road. The dance at Mrs. W. U. Dunn's last Friday niht was well attended and all report a fine time and fine music furnish ed by Mrs. Dunn herself oo the piano and her brother on the mouth harp. I understand that Miss Lillie Harris will be among us ere long, which I hoiie is true as she will undoubtly belp us out with the S. S. work, although Miss Lillie Dorman is doing splendidly if she only will htav. ' Eck McCane, one of theyoung men who came here about two weeks ago and hired to Bill v Shepherd, has been quite sick. The water diden't agree with him. He is quite sick and at Jim Merr iam's now. A gang of lioys was out to B. Harveys place to take a bath Sunday. I suppose Mr. Dunlap has started a bath house. I Kiiess it isn't wicked to take a bath on Sunday, -what's good for the body is also good for the soul. I wish you school marras and scViol masters would talk plain english through these columns as you know Peggy isn't talented with as good understanding as you. You use such large words I don't know what you mean by what you say. The Rev. Horton and wife came Sun day. Mr. Horton delivered to us a nice sermon. All who haven't heard him should lie prompt in two weeks at 3 P.M. as lie will be lie re again, no preventing cause. Uur W. n. as usual next Sunday at 2 o'clock P. M. I guess Pete Peterson has his "cage" about completed, as I seen him going out ol town with a load of shingles and lathe Saturday. He is a wise boy to get the cage before he does the bird. It is a pity more wouldn't do likewise; there would be more prosperous people than there is. Bill Harvey was in this vicinity and stayed over night but he diden't call on us; we felt very much slighted, but they say Bill sports a line new team and per Imps a new top buggy 1 don't know, and there are lots of pretty girls over on Hat creek and in Bodarc. School mams ain't in it. Peggy had company Sunday but they found no one at home, so they busied themselves piling exerything thev could find in the door way, so when I did come I could net get in until I had cleared the way; Whoever it was must come again and I hope I will be there to entertain them in some other way. PUXIY. LETTER FROM MRS. C. E. RICE. Hotchkiss, Colo. June, 3 1908. Perhaps the Press-Journal readers will be ready to hear again about Colorado weather and ect. It is called a cold, back ward spring, but our weather has been mild compared to reports we hear from eastern Nebraska. What mud ws had and it was pretty deep for a little bile and dreadfully sticky, it has bean dried up for six weeks. The worst storm we had was the 17th and 18lh of May, we had little showers alternating with sun shine for two or three days, then snow fell all day the 17th and melting as it fell and the morning of the 18th we had two inch or so on the ground, which was all gone by 10 o'clock.
