Has W. N Sherman been killed
by a bear? True such ;s the feport
But from what source did it com* ?
Both the Tiroes Dnieper,df,nt amt Hit
Ravenna News have slated that they
have been “o informed Such ft re
port reached this town about Doc.
10 and shortly after that Geo. Gib
son recieved a letter from him doted
Dec. 17, which we published, a n
in which was an account of his u 11
doiug, but strange to say he said
nothing about the killing,
Only one subscriber thus far Isas
mistook our intention and aim in
sending out our annual statement to
subscribers to call and settle tbicr
accounts to January l*t, end that
gentleman paid up aud slopped his
piper. He was a valuable sub
scriber. has been on the list, for
years and has never allowed his sub
scription account to get very tar in
arrearage. This year he only owed
one dollar, but we thought that dol
lar would go just as far as auv one
else’s dollar towords helping us out,
and enabling us to pay our past
due obligations. Now it w is not
because we were afraid we would
not get that dollar, nor from choice
that we sent u statement, but be
cause we needed the dollar and need
ed it had. We have a hundred sub
e nliers who owe us only a dollui
and if they all paid promptly tha
means one hundred dollars spot cash
to us. We do not insist upon the
subscriber who owes us only adollar,
cashing tip, hut simply send the u
a statement, which of itself is
a hint that we need the money
and would be pleased to get it. We
do however uige the payment of.
larger suinswlue us on subscription
and other accounts and hope itiai all
will respond with good cheer.
The new members of the board of
supervisors of Sherman county and j
who to 'k ibeir oaths of office last

business on bund in l^ss than two,
da\s, when here-to-fore it has taken
nearly as much time to get the new
machinery in ruouiog order. One
of the important measures which
w. ut through was the doing away
with a standing bridge committee,
therebi saving a great expense to
the county, lu place of a com
mit'ee going from ouc side of the
coun'y to the other and spending
da \8 traveling about from place
to place, each supervisor was dele
gated to look ufter the bridges in
bis own township. This import
ant chHnge was due to the efforts of
Supervisor Jakob, wtio made a very
logical speacli in support of the mo
tion. A change in the method of
drawing a jury was also made. l»
seems that a jury was drawn by tin*
oid board, sehc'ing jurymen onlv

Ttic jii onlo of ttiis county are p li
tioriin;! the legislature, through
Senator Wall and Rep. Kittell, to
use all just, means to secure for
Loup City, our county seat, the loc
ation for the State Normal School
now located at Peru but which is
to ha changed to some other, and
more central point We can assure
our people that Messrs Wall and
Kittell will do all they can to thus
favor us. We have many advant
ages that other towns do not have,
and being as we are, in almost the
geographical center of the state it
would seem that we should have it.
Hal! county senators and represent
atives should help us in return for
what we did for them in securing
the bee sugar factory for Gland
Island.

“After my first baby was bom I did not
teem to regain my itrength although the
doctor gave me a tonic which he consid
ered very superior, but Instead of getting
! better I grew weaker every day. My hus
band insisted that I take Wine, of Cardui
for a week and see what it would do for
me. I did take the medicine and was very
grateful to find my strength and health
slowly returning. In two weeks I was out
of bed and in a' month I was able to take
up my usual duties. I am very enthusi
astic in its praise."
f Wine of Cardui reinforces the organs
t] of generation for the ordeal of preg
* nancy and childbirth. 11 prevents mis*
carriage. No woman who takes Wine
S of Cardui no 1 fear the coming of her
| child. If Mrs. Unrath hau taken
1 Wine of Cardui before her babycame
" she would r.ot have been weakened as
t she was. ller rapid recovery should
j.: commend this great remedy to every
H expectant mother. Wine of Cardui
f regulates the menstrual flow.
