Loop City Northwestern J. W. BURLEIGH, Publisher. LOUP CITY, . • NEBRASKA. We’ll bet the inventor of the seed less apple can’t solve the boneless shad problem. Some men are born great, others achieve greatness, and others never amount to anything, anyhow. In Paraguay there are seven women to one man. Still, if we had to move we would prefer Massachusetts. Dr. Patton says that “language is thought’s pottery.” It is used very largely in the manufacture of family jars. But this practice of restoring dead cats to life must not be indulged in to excess, even in the sacred name of science. We cannot all, like Mile, de Tiers, make the dip of death, but the season is at hand when anybody can rock the boat. October 16 is the date now fixed for the reassembling of congress. Well, the base ball championship will be settled then. If the book Mrs. Chadwick is going to sell is as negotiable as some of her Ohio writings, she ought to do well as an author. A Pennsylvania genius has just dis covered that the world will last but three years longer. Well, “our” health is poor, anyhow. A Pennsylvania humorist was killed the other day for “getting off” a joke. Astonishing now fellows like Eli Per kins succeed in getting off. A Boston authoress declares that men are far more beautiful than wom en. We knew that if we kept still long enough some one would say it for ns. That fashion authority who an nounces that the bustle “is coming back,” is respectfully reminded that it always did go pretty well back any how,. Green is now the fashionable color for men’s garments, but we see no reason to modify the standing warn ing against the purchase of green goods. Get-rich-quick concerns offering an annual profit ’of 4S per cent have clos ed down in Philadelphia. The invest ors were so unreasonable as to want lesults. It might help some if President Cas tro would pay a visit to this country and see the gravity of the physical proposition he proposes to bump up against. Every poor little fish that is caught has the satisfaction of knowing that he will go down in local history as the largest and gamest of his species ever landed. Doubtless the woman who testified in court that she had worn the same hat fifteen years felt that if that did not arouse judge and jury to compas sion nothing could. Another evidence that the world is rot yet as good as it ought to be is that the advertisements of things lost are very much more numerous than those of things found. New York has made the alarming discovery that when school boys and girls are packed together in a bus they hug each other. Where in the world did they learn how? Lightning, it seems, struck one of the Egyptian pyramids a few . days ago. The achievements of electricity in this age of the world, however, have ceased to excite surprise. Chicago woman recently swore that she had worn the same hat fif teen years. The name of this treas ure does not, unfortunately, accom pany the incredible statement in ques tion. Following to its logical conclusion the customs officials’ great theory 'hat frogs’ legs are not turkey we ar rive at the equally thrilling and pro found deduction that turkey is not frogs’ legs. Eugene Ware thinks that the “songs of the common people are the bul wark of the state.” Excuse us—we don't care to be bulwarked by any such doubtful arrangement as Hia watha and Bedelia. It is noted that Donald G. Mitchell, better known as “Ik Marvel,” lives, at the age of 83, “on a quiet and peaceful farm near New Haven.” It’s a great thing to be able to live on a quiet and peaceful farm. Edward Atkinson, the Boston statis tician, says a woman can clothe her self on $65 a year. Would it not be well to give Edward a chair in some women’s college so that he might teach future wives and mothers how\ Mr. N. O. Nelson of St. Louis, “a millionaire against his will,” said lately in an offhand manner: “You know and I knoV that the hardest job a man can have is living up to a a big income.” No, Mr. Nelson, we don’t know, but we are willing to learn. King Alfonso of Spain is credited with a desire to marry an American girl. But that’s nothing. There are plenty of young men right around here who are entertaining a similar desire. The girl who reads two sentimental novels every week Isn’t nearly so In teresting to young men as the girl who regularly reads the newspapers. A prominent citizen says wre are all more or less Rockefellerish. In the cases of most of us the resemblance stops short of the bank account. WHAT SMART WOMEN ARE WEARING Useful Hints. You can make of odds and ends of accordion-pleated gauze or chiffon pretty 5 o’clock tea jackets, and here fashion is most elastic. You can wear the tea jacket short or long, as your fabric allows. A flchu-like collar or a V-shaped vest of lace at the neck is a charming finish, and the sleeves can be picturesque, long and hang ing, or short and puffed to the elbow. One of the prettiest jackets was made out of a length of pale blue zenana. There was not sufficient ma terial for a full sleeve, so it was tight to the elbow, cut in scallops, finished with some accordion-plaited blue chiffon edged with a remnant of Valienciennes lace. The collar was made of white muslin, with insertion and edgings of Valenciennes, fasten ing to one side, with a big chou of palest pink and blue chiffon. ■ Spring Colors. There is a fancy for the violet tones In the spring. But there is also a lik ing for brown. And the four browns of the year are clear brown, which is a deep shade, golden brown, chestnut fcrown which is known to all as a sort of reddish tone, and Havana brown, which as almost exactly the color of a good cigar. These four browns will furnish the theme for almost all the brown dresses of the spring. Charming House Gown. That Parisian modistes have set the seal of their approval on the princess house gown this season is shown by the number of this style among the latest importations of French models, ‘/•he chic little gown sketched here is a Parisian conception developed in a challie of the palest blue. The grace fully curved shoulder straps are of white edged with a plaiting of white satin ribbon, with the yoke and collar of a white all-over lace. The material is gathered under the shoulder seams, and this fulness ad justed about the waist and hips by fourteen rows of shirring. The full sleeves of elbow length are caught in with double rows of shirring and fin ished with a fall of Valenciennes lace. The graceful lines of this gown make it equally suited to slender or to stout figures, and any of the pretty summery materials, voile, organdy, lawn or mousseline can be used effect ively. Challie is particularly good for this model. It is inexpensive but ef fective, and falls in soft, pretty folds from the shirring. For Morning Wear. Parisiennes have not yet tired of the short skirt for morning wear, and now that the smart little bolero coat is so fashionable it has made the tetteur costumes ever more chic. The skirts should be very full, and great attention should be given to the jupon or blouse worn with it, for it must match in same detail. For example a frock of blue cheviot with stitched fronts and bands relies for its touch of color upon its verdigris-tinted enamel buttons, the petticoat is of the same greeny hue, as is also the cravat. Ferns in Pots. Many persons have given up grow ing ferns in pots on account of poor success with them. They get fine plants from the florist and in a few months they go to pieces. There are but a few things to know in order to keep ferns in good condition, and have them increase in beauty from year to year, says an authority. They must be grown in a moist atmosphere. If kept in a hot, dry room they will do no good. For this reason they do poorly in rooms heated by steam or hot water, unless provision is made for adding moisture to the air. A room heated by a hot-air heater which has an evaporating pan is the best for ferns. Also the soil must be kept moist at all times, yet be well drained. The soil should be made up of peaty loam, one part, and leaf mold one part, and a handful of bone-meal to a pot. Making of Gowns. The pointed girdle and corselet bodices need fully developed figures, therefore the very youthful evening frocks are still simple blouse waists gathered into close-fitted moderate girdles with the pretty 1830 berthas draping the shoulders and falling wide over the full elbow sleeves. The skirts of the frocks follow the prevail ing mode—wide and round, gathered or plaited at the waist and trimmed with ruffles or flounces about the lower half. Decided favor is being shown velvet as a trimming on sheer fabrics just at present, though this may be varied by ribbon ruffles set on in rows, waves or scrolls. Embroidery. Embroidery is the most effective, as it Is the most approved, form Just now of dress ornamentation, and the blouse or separate waist is a favorite medium for the display of handiwork ct this sort. The fashion oracles pre dict that none but embroidervd shirt 1 waists will be worn during the com ing summer and this announcement has stimulated interest in the em broiderer’s art. The decorative pat terns are executed both in self color and in contrasting hues, an Oriental blending of blue, crimson, green and gold being much favored by those who like gay effects. In the accom panying illustration introducing a va riety of stitches, the design is carried out in Oriental coloring with collar and cuffs to match .the embroidery of the front. „ oudoir ^Confidences r • Lapis lazuli beads are odd and pretty. Tablier effects are much in vogue. Washable belts are very attractive. It is predicted that colored belts will have the preference during the coming season. Chambray is utilized for some fetching shirt waist suits. Checks, in all wool material are used for smart tailor made costumes. Chiffon silk stockings represent the icreasing popularity for the chif fon finish. The newest link purses in gold mesh are in circular shape. Mohairs, plain and fancy, will be much worn this spring. Pompadour designs prevail in trim mings and laces. Pigeon Pie. Choose four pigeons, and having drawn, cleansed and trussed them nicely, blanch and mince the livers with one ounce of beef marrow, four peeled mushrooms, one-half pound of veal, some picked herbs and a table spoonful of fine bread crumbs. Sea son it with salt, pepper and grated nutmeg, mixing it all through, and then put a tablespoonful of the mix ture in each bird. Line a pie-dish with some of the forcemeat and, after putting in the birds, arrange tiny rolls of thinly sliced bacon and slices of hard-boiled egg between the layers with small dabs of butter at intervals. After this is done cover the pie with a good paste, leaving a hole in the center. After baking in a moderate oven, and just before serving, pour a gill of clear rich gravy into the pie through this center opening. Checks Are Really Here. It was said last year, that cheeks had had their day, but if the stuffs in smart shops are an indication we shall be checked the coming spring as we haven't been checked for many a year. Every possible fabric has its check phase.' There are checked taf fetas, checked louisines, checked cot tons, checked voiles, black and white shepherd checks, checks that borrow the pastel hues of pink and white and blue and white gingham, and all those various mercerized checks which wash and cost the price of cot ton and yet delude the unknowing into the belief that you are sporting a silk frock. It may be said, too, that the louisine checks in lavender and mauve are particularly delightful. Effective Negligee. A simple but effective negligee of pink liberty satin falls in straight robe fashion from the shoulders, with a ruche of the same material running around the bottom of the skirt, around the neck and down the front, where it opens over a petticoat of white lace. The garment is slightly low and square in the neck, and a deep lace collar falls over the shoulders and back outside of the ruche. The sleeves, which end at the elbow, are Gnished with a ruche. Beef is the most nutritious of all animal foods, and can be eaten long er continuously than any other kind of meat. A paraffin tin should always be kept tightly corked. Unless this is done the oil will not yield such a good light as it ought to do. When color has been removed from silk by acid it may be restored by touching the spots with a little sal volatile or hartshorn. To clean bronzes rub in sweet oil and then polish with soft cloths. Not a particle of oil must be left. Finish by giving a final rub with a chamois leather. Revival of Flower Turban. For the flower turban one harks back to the days when every woman had a violet turban. This turban is rather large this sea son. It is pointed in front and is cov ered as to the top with violets, while the sides are thatched with leaves. This violet and green together form a very pretty combination which can be made dressier by the addition of a pink velvet bow, or a series of little pink velvet bows, arranged around the crown in such a manner that the little bows touch the hair. The gown to wear with the flower toque is unquestionably a gown of the same color. A pretty purple, a panc' colored, or a lavender gown goes bf ■ tifully with a violet trimmed hat. A one can even essay to wear pink i: one cares to do so. New French Blouse. A fascinating creation which sug gests apple blossom time is shown in the accompanying sketch. White crys tal silk serves for the entire waist, as cavalier cuffs and stole collar are em broidered in pastel shades. Narrow black velvet in a Greek key pattern gives character to the bodice, and both of these decorations are novel as well as inexpensive. Applique, guipure or the popular spangle can be used Id place of the embroidery. A bodice suitable for formal occasions is ef fected by omitting plastron and cuffs. Styles in Hairdressing. A commendable feature of the hair dressing styles of to-day is the lati tude permitted maid and matron. Thf arrangement of the hair that is bes' suited to the face is the style so fat as the individual is concerned, and while the low coiffures is now seen more frequently than for some time heretofore the high style is by no means out of date and it is simply a matter of choice and becomingness. For evening particularly is the high coiffure retained, the prevailing style of hats being better adapted to the low arrangement of the hair for less ceremonious occasions and street wear. Lace Frocks. Be it black or white, a lace dress is more useful for an afternoon cos.ume than almost any other sort of gown. For one thing a deep lace gown will frequently do service in the evening for the theater or when staying tem porarily at some hotel, besides which it is the kind of dress which, made up now, can be worn right through the year, being equally appropriate at all seasons. Now is certainly the best time to have a lace gown made up, for it will then be ready for the spring weddings, luncheons, and "bridge" afternoons, besides which it is always easier to get one’s costumes bought and fitted before the great rush commences. Blouses of Shaded Tints. Blouses of satin or peau de cygne j are made of shaded tints. One no j ticed in a fashionable shop was shad ed from the palest fawn to rich brown, ! and was made with a wide box plait i down the front, on either side of which were tucks fastened down with tiny red buttons. The palest shades of the satin were in the plait, shading with brown toward the shoulders. DAINTY KIMONA No daintier or more useful gift could be devised for the little guest than the kimono, which has taken the place of the sack. It is one of the most neces sary articles in baby’s wardrobe. The one. The scallops can be marked around half of a spool, with a blue pencil. Three pieces of wash ribbon are sewed on each side of the sleeve and under arms seams and these are shape is so practical, there is no bind ing of the tiny arms and shoulders, no trying sleeves to squeeze into, for if it shrinks a little, and that seems to be inevitable with all flannels, there will be ample space for that. The illustration gives the garment laid out flat and when a pattern cannot be pur „>-rj. nn„ v.„ —f>Ut Without tied in tiny bows to shape the garment. Any flower that is small can be used as a decoration, but the violet in white and the forgetmenot in pale blue or pink are given the preference. Cash mere and silk flannel shrink less than wool flannel and are favorite mate* rials, and quite heavy enough for the little wraps. IN THE MIDDLE AGES IGNORANCE AND FILTH CHIEF CHARACTERISTICS. Poverty, With Its Accompanying Con ditions, Shortened the Lives of the People—Leper Hospitals in Thou sands in Europe. The home of the laborer in the nineteenth century contains furniture and utensils which in the fourteenth century would have represented the highest grade of luxury. Employment for the laborer must have been pre carious and the pay disgracefully small. Food was scarce and of the kind which contains almost no nour ishment. Tools of labor, even of the most advanced trades, were clumsy, inefficient and few in number, as well as hard to get. if the whole stock of a carpenter’s tools comprised two broadaxes, an adze, a square and a spoke shave, how limited must have been the scope of his operations. Ag riculture was a farce, for the yield of wheat to the acre was considered good if it reached six bushels. In the fourteenth century people lived in mud huts, with a rough door and no chimney. It was not till a century later that the erection of a chimney was considered more than an indulgence in luxury, a fire commonly being built against the mud plastered wall of the hut and the smoke escap ing through the roof. All furniture was of wood. Even the nobility had no glass in the windows during this time. Cleanliness was not a charac teristic of the people, and Thomas a Backet was considered more than necessarily nice because he had the floor of his house strewn with fresh straw each day. 1 he rich in the middle ages con cealed a want of cleanliness in their homes and persons under a profusion of costly scents, and to swarm with vermin was no disgrace. When Erasmus visited England in the reign of Henry VIII. he complained bitterly of the nastiness of the people and at tributed the frequent plagues to this cause. He said: “The floors are commonly of clay, strewed with rush es, under which lie unmolested a col lection of beer, grease, fragments of bones, spitile and excrement of cats and dogs, and of everything which is nauseous.” The densest ignorance prevailed among the masses. Investi gation has led to the conclusion that the average duration of human life at that period was not half what it is at the present day. Bad food and want of cleanliness swept away the people of the middle ages by ravages upon their health that the limited skill of the time could not resist. A historian of that time states that there were no less than twenty thousand leper hospitals in Europe. It is well to remember when we feel inclined to complain of the hard times in our day that such a state would have been unheard of opulence four hun dred years ago.—New York Herald. Physical Examinations Necessary. The advisability of a periodical medical examination of the apparent ly healthy man is considered by Dr. Alexander MacKenzie in the Detroit Medical Journal. He sums up his ar ticle in these words: "Physicians have a tremendous responsibility in keeping people well. Only a small percentage of people enjoy perfect health. Physicians should educate people in apparent health to the ne cessity of a periodical physical exam ination. This examination, made at least yearly, should be careful and systematic, and should embrace all the approved chemical and microscop ical tests for the diagnosis of dis ease.” “The Cur Won’t Fight.” Judge Sylvester Dana, who was for some years judge of the police court in Concord, N. H., always endeavored to smooth over any little differences between persons brought before him. On one occasion the charge was for a technical assault, and it came out in the course of the evidence that the parties were neighbors and had been on the best of terms for some years. “It is a great pity,” said the judge, “that old friends, as you seem to have been, should appear before me ia such a way. Surely this is a case which might be settled out of court.” "It can t be done, judge,” answered the plaintiff, moodily. “I thought of that myself, but the cur won't fight.” The Lily and the Rose. Only a Rose, this Easter day. Oil the breast of a maiden fair; But a storv it tells as the organ swells, And her head is bowed in prayer. Only a Rose, in its hushed repose. As it nestles so close to her heart; But'its fragrance sweet may a tale repeat Of two souls not far apart. And what of the Lily, so pure, so sweet? Does it speak to the maiden fair? Of a Love it is telling, all others excell Jng, As it rests on the altar there. ’Tis a storv so old, it so often has been told— Ever sweet—ever old—ever new— May this glad Easter day unto all of U3 "He is risen'.” and “Peace be with yCU! ’ —Marie F. Swift. Young Lord Is Fined. Lord Haddo, son of the Earl of Aberdeen, rode his bicycle on the -wrong side of Piccadilly, London, and was arrested and fined. Had he not lefused to give his name and address he would not have been arrested. He would have been summoned and fined just the same. They are particular about the rules of the road in Lon don. Woman Light Keeper. For thirty-eight years a woman has kept the light off Santa Barbara. The lighthouse is situated about two miles southwest of Santa Barbara, on a low point of land, the light being 178 feet above the sea. The tower rises from the center of a small white building with the usual red roof and green shutters, with a tiny porch opening toward the sea.—Los Angeles Times. Refurnishes Old Palace. The royal palace at Belgrade. Servia, called the Konak, has been en tirely refurnished by King Peter. The furniture came almost entirely from Paris and Vienna. ALL BROKEN TOWN No Sleep—No Appetite—Just a Con tinual Backache. Joseph McCauley, of 144 Sholto street, Chicago, Sachem of Tecumseh r Lodge, says: “Two years ago my health was com pletely broken down, j My back ached and ( was so lame that at • times I was hardly I' able to dress myself. I lost my appetite and was unable to sleep. There seemed ! to be no relief until 1 I took Doan’s Kid ney Pills; but lour boxes or tbis rem edy effected a complete and perma nent cure. If suffering humanity knew the value of Boan’s Kidney Pills they •would use nothing else, as it is the only positive cure I know.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N.Y. New South Wales Wool. New South Wales owns more than 60 per cent of the entire number of sheep pastured in the provinces of Australia. Since 1860 the wool clip has brought to New South Wales alone the enormous sum of $1,330,000. Near ly 250,000,000 pounds of wool are yealy exported from New' South Wales. Angora goats have also been bred in the colony, and there are at present nearly 40,000 of them in the country. New and Profitable Occupation. A shorthand writer in Berlin at tends the funerals of prominent per sons and takes down verbatim the ad dresses of the officiating clergymen. He prepares highly-ornamented copies of these and sells them to the friends of the eulogized dead. He is doing a profitable trade. American Coal Production. The United States produces 319,000, 000 metric tons of coal a year, worth ! at the mines $485,000,000 and costing consumers nearly a billion dollars. Iris plants grow in Thibet, 15.500 , feet above sea level, in such masses as to look like sheets of purple. A Wonderful Discovery. Broadland, S. Dak., April 17.—Quite a sensation has been created here by the publication of the story of G. W. Gray, who after a special treatment for three months was prostrate and helpless and given up to die with Bright’s Disease. Bright's Disease has always been considered incurable, but evidently from the story told by Mr. Gray, there is a remedy which will cure it even in the most advanced stages. This is what he says: “I was helpless as a little babe. My wife and I searched everything and read everything we could find about Bright’s Disease, hoping that I would be able to find a remedy. After many failures my wife insisted that I should try Dodd’s Kidney Pills. I praise God for the day when I decided to do so. for this remedy met every phase of my case and in a short time I was able to get out of bed and after a few weeks’ treatment I was a strong, well man. Dodd’s Kidney Pills saved my life.” A remedy that will cure Bright’s Disease will cure any lesser Kidney Disease. Dodd's Kidney Pills are cer tainly the most wonderful discovery which modern medical research has given to the world. The water is so clear in the fiords of Norway that objects 1% inches in diameter can be distinctly seen at a depth of 150 feet. The Present Rate Law. The duties of the present Interstate Commerce Commission are to correct all discriminations in railroad rates. If it finds that an unjust rate is in effect, the railroad is notified. If it declines to change it, the Commission can bring suit in Court and if the Court decides in favor of the Com missioners’ finding, the railroad must obey, or its officers may be brought up for contempt of court and summarily dealt with. Push a worthy enterprise as far as circumstances will permit. $5.00 paid monthly, will buy a $300 share of 14 2-5 acres of 288,000 acre plantation. 8* guaranteed. Every condition safe-guarded.

Some grocers say they don’t keep Defiance Starch. This is because they have a stock on hand of other brands containing only 12 ounces in a pack age, which they won’t be able to sell first, because Defiance contains 16 ounces for the same money. Do you want 16 ounces instead of 12 ounces for same money? Then buy De fiance Starch. Requires no cooking. People who are always regretting the past, are always the people who are putting the future on the bum. Why It Is the Best is because made by an entirely differ ent process. Defiance Starch is unlike any other, better and one-third more for 10 cents. WHAT IS A BUILDING & LOAN AS SOCIATION. To those not familiar with the plan and operation of a Building & Loan Association it may be proper to say that it is in fact a mutual society for savings, in which every member, pop ularly styled a “depositor,’ is a stock holder and entitled to share in the profits of the Company, the aggregate savings being loaned to other mem bers of the Association. It affords every person an opportun ity to at any time safely invest sums ol $1.00 or more and assures him that whatever interest may be derived from loaning the aggregate sums will be divided pro-rata and his share paid or credited quarter-annually. All money is loaned on first mort gage security or on stock of the Asso ciation to other members, and is re paid in monthly installments. Hence, safety is as nearly absolute as possi ble, and, with common honesty and with the exercise of ordinary judg ment, the institution cannot fall. It is not intended to be as flexible as a bank, since the State law renders all securites non-negctiable. There fore, notice of withdrawal of money is required, but this is more than off set by the higher rate of interest or dividends paid to its members. Per manency in savings and investments are its characteristics. In additon to offering absolute safe ty for Investments, it also offers an excellent opportunity to own a home of your own. Why forever pay rent? You will assume practically no more obligation in undertaking to' purchase a home of your own. It will only re quire the regular setting aside of such an amount as you can from each pay day until you have the necessary mar gin of cash to put up as security. Then for a time you pay about the same as the former rent, and after that you have only taxes and Insur ance to pay.

It is a mistake to force a good thing into service where it has no place. All Up-to-Date Housekeepers use Defiance Cold Water Starch, be cause it is better, and 4 ounces more of it for same money. If they are filled with sweet temper there is no place for anger. Every housekeeper should know that if they will buy Definace Cold Water Starch for laundry use they will save not only time, because it never sticks to the iron, but because each package contains 16 oz.—one full pound—while all other Cold Water Starches are put up in si-poun«l pack ages, and the price is the same. Id cents. Then again because Defiance Starch is free from all injurious chem icals. If your grocer tries to sell you a 12-oz. package it is because he has a stock on hand which he wishes to dispose of before he puts in Defiance, fie knows that Defiance Starch has printed on every package in large let ters and figures “16 ozs.” Demand De fiance and save much time and money and the annoyance of the iron stick ing. Defiance never sticks. Plead for peace until there Is noti* ing left but to fight. Vain excuses only aggravate the gravity of an offense.
