The National Medicine Company of York, Nebraska aud Sheldon, j Iowa seems to be on a very solid financial basis as they are declaring quarterly divisions, although their buisuess is but of few rears standing. Several of the best buisness men' of York are stock holders. One of their specialties is the Liquid K<>al which is becoming a very popular remedy tor many stock diseases, and is proving itself to be the farm era friend. It is used in water tanks to purify the water and is also a great blood purifyer. Liquid Koalis on sale in this city at J. Soltns har l ware store. We presume that the success of the company is chiefly due to the merits of their manufact ured good. At all events it will not cost much for the farmers to give it a thorugb trial. The morning sun was just com mencing to gilde the prairies with a shimmer of gold when a buneh of men, beards and chaff being mingled with their whiskers, come down the road riding large robust plow horses and mules. “Three of them were put off the freight near hear last night” said the leader of the agriculturists and nearer came the men on horse back, he kicked the flank of his steed and urged it ouward, “They can't be far away. Get your lariats ready, men, so that we can gather 'em in as soon as they are flushed.” Just then three weary Williams who had sought repose in a last year's straw stack which stood near the highway, awakened by the noise, raised tbeir heads to look. “Duck fellers, duck,” said “Limberger Sam” iu horse whisper to tlie other hoboes. “If them farmers see us there is nothin' left but the harvest field for us.” The warning came too late. The quick eye of the farm er who rode the muckle-dun mule had already spied the hoboes and with a shout of encouragement to his companions, he swung his lariat and dashed on. Tlie tramps made a wild dash for liberty and for a few minutes the race was even. Then the horseman began to gain slowly the fleeing meu on foot. Nearer aud Dearer came the men on horse back and then the lariats hurled through the air and settled down over the heads of the Weary Wil liams -We have them." shouted the man on the muckle dun mule in triumph. “We will go now and start the reapers in the lieid.” “This 8 what, comes uv exercisin' no good judgement in selectin, a place fur a summer ontin’.” remarked “Ked Nosed Pete.’’ bitterly to “Limburg Sam” as they were dragged on toward the harvest field ■,! told yerthat Nebraska wan’t no place fur a man uv leisure to come to.”—Tec unj8eh Chieftain.
