Sequel to the Norm Parks Fire l cl) Charges aud Counter I barges Made as to the Origin ot the Fire Whieh Hound Bad -9 Our readers will recall the fact that I Urn* columns reported the tire in j tl»e printing office of the Custer: County Republican some weeks ago. It was known at the time that the tire was started by a printer in the • shop Curwin Honeywell, presumably i b> accident w hile he was burning up j ttie waste paper about the shop fol- j low ing the output of the paper. liut there was a whisper going i around tliat the tire was not on the i square, that the young man set the ; tire for a purp<*e. This whisper has i now broken out in a very loud tone of voice. Tl*e matter came to a focus last Thursday afternoon when Norm Parks j ami his mot tier w ent before a local j justice of tl:e peace and swore out a' • omplaint against Honeywell for some j ••rime not stated in the report as printed in the Chief of that city. Hut probably for blackmail or for rob ber). As related the story is about this wav. Norm and his mother were in tlteir rooms last Wednesday packing and Honeywell was with them. Sud denly tlje latter drew a gun on them and demanded that Mrs. Parks draw ; a ciurct for *->i. which siiedid. Then be made tier draw another for twice that sum. The miuutia of the rob t«erv. if so it may be termed, are not given, so we are left to guess and pic-' lure u> our own satisfaction the l thrilling details. but tiie evidence goes on to show t.’ial the alleged blackmailer had some difficulty in cashing the checks. A merchant to whom he perserited one of them called Mrs Parks up and she ! as-und him that the checks were g'-'d- However, the hank officials were called up and asked as to the ci et k and they said that the funds heid by Mrs. .Parks were not subject to check, being in the form of eertif- I v-aUrs of deposit. By mutual arrange-1 uo-nt Mr- Packs and Honeywell went U> the bank and the matter was fixed up satisfactorily for all concerned. After all this was done and twenty four hours had elapsed Parks swore out a complaint for the arrest of Honeywell, who was then in Grand Island and .hat personage was brought back to Broken bow. Just why the arrest was not made sooner and w by the maker of the checks had gone on without appar ent protest and made the checks good are tilings not explained. One would think tliat a person forced to draw a clieck under a vicious looking gun would, wien tire gun was tucked away, set out to stop payment and give the alarm and seek the arrest instanter of the villain. But these points are wholly overlooked in the account as printed and so we are left to suppose tliat good and sufficient reasons wyi be brought out at the trial forjsuch omissions in the tragedy. A letter from Mr. Parks tells the writer that the account as printed in tlie Chief is substantially correct, but tliat. if Honeywell set the office on tire, it was done without Norm's knowledge and consent. Norm fur ther says tliat the w hole affair is the work of the gang. The gun said to have been used by Honeywell is the same one Parks used on the court house contractor a few mor.ths ago_-Ord Quiz. Fell From Tree Broke His Wrist Tuesday afternoon of this week, while Harold, the 12 year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. P. T. Rowe, was playing in the court house park with tlie bunch of children in attendance on the Chautauqua under thesupervision of Miss Lawson of the Chautauqua management. l:e climbed to the top of one of the large trees in front of the court house on the south, and when at a height exceeding the building, lost his balance in some way and fell to the ground beneath, breaking his right arm just above the wrist, hurt ing his bick and otherwise bruising him. In falling he struck various limbs of tbe tree, retarding the de scent. and thereby undoubtedly sav ing his life, which must otherwise have resulted in ids death. Dr. Main was called from the tent and rendered he necessary medicial assistance, and the little fellow is getting along as rdcelv as could be expected from such a perilous accident. An effort is being made to charter U*e Union Pacific motor car to take a party of Ravenna people to Loup City during their Harvsst Festival to be held in that city August 21-22-23.

KEYSTONE j LUMBER CO. - j Fairly at Home in New Office, j The Keystone Co. can be said to be I now fairly and comfortably at home in their palatial new office building, | and although moving a fortnight or more since from the old into the new building.yet more or less t urmoil and change has been undergone till the ' present time. Their new office is,one : of the most modern and up-to-date buildings in the state, and we doubt if anv other town of this size in the | state can boast of as tine a one. The building is of brick, with pressed brick front, plate glass windows, 20x 60, with basement under full length. It is equipped with double vault, fur nace heat, elevator, city water, elec tric lights, two phones, toilet rooms, etc. The front of the office building is a large sales and counting room, back of which is an intermediate of fice and still to the north the private business office of Mr. A. B. Outhouse, entirely removed from the noise -.nd bustle of the rest of the building. He lias therein an elegant fireplace, easy chairs, and with door leading out on street, so visitors or patrons may enter and depart without disturb ance to the rest of the business de partments. The various rooms have steel ceilings and the wood work and finishings of each ar.j of the best. Ouite a litte more work of shelving etc., is yet to be made and the fur nace yet to be installed, which will be in place soon. The old office build ing has been moved to the west end of the yards and will be used lor warehouse purposes. All the old sheds have been torn away and in place are the mammoth new sheds and a large warehouse erected to the north of the new office. Cement walks sur round the office and will later be sup plemented with cement walks hither and thither about the yards, sheds and warehouses. All in all. the Keystone Lumber Co. has made won derful improvements and now have office and lumber yard accommod tions second to no other city of this size in this state or any other in the central west.

Zink at Durango, Colo., writes thus glowingly ol Ills new home in the Montezuma country of the great mountain state: “This leaves my self and family in the best of health. Durango is located at an elevation of t>500 feet and the summers are cool and pleasant and we are not bothered | with flies here as you are in Nebraska, i The ranchmen use no nets on their horses and we are not bothered with flies in the house nor have any use for tanglefoot nor fly poison. The fruit crop this year is the largest ever raised in the San J uan basin. Grain and hay also good and the po tato crop excellent. I believe this country will become densely popu lated in the course of a few years, as the climate is ideal and fruit, grain and hay grow to perfection—every thing except corn, and that requires ; more heat units than we get here to | matuie well.” Mrs R.

I UNSOUND TEETH, BAD HEALTH Lack of Care Will Lead to Nation of Broken Down Men and Women. There are in this country eight fac tories devoted to the manufacture of artificial teeth. Last year the manu facturers sold over 60,000.000 of these teeth and this year they expect to sell many more. Each one of these teeth goes to replace a natural tooth, which, if given proper care and attention, should last out one's lifetime. L'nclean mouths and teeth are responsible for these conditions, for It is a fact fully established that less than 8 per cent, of the American people use a tooth brush or make any effort to keep their teeth and mouths clean. In order to have good health we must have sound teeth, yet we are permitting our teeth to decay at a pace that is alarming, which, if unchecked, will lead to a na tion of broken down, dyspeptic men and women. The first permanent molar is ths most important of all teeth. It is oft en lost because parents frequently think it is one of the temporary set This error la due to the fact that it la cut while most of the first teeth ara tn the mouth. When this tooth is lost, nature makes an attempt to close the space, with the result that the entire articulation is destroyed. The space thus created between the teeth is dif ficult to clean, due to the food par ticles being forced into these spaces. Its loss is also oae of the chief causes of irregularities of other erupting teeth. It is the belief of the entire dental profession that the early loss of this tooth is responsible for mora miepiacea icein ana 111-snapea jaws than any other condition of the mouth. A noted neurologist of Boston has called these molar teeth the “working tools of mastication.'' He says: “Their work begins at once and continues throughout life. Upon them rest the full growth and development. Upon them depends good health during life.” This tooth appears about the sixth year, and it is frequently found de cayed within the year following. It Is at this time the children acquire a fondness for sweets of every descrip tion, and not having learned the habit of brushing their teeth and properly cleaning them, this tooth in particular becomes affected and rapidly decays. With the defect in articulation caused by the loss of this tooth, the proper chewing of food is not possible, with the result that children and adults as well become habitual “food bolt ers.” It should be the particular duty of every mother to become familiar with the location of this important tooth. She should carefully watch for any defects in this tooth, and if -cavi ties are found they should be repaired at once, in order that the usefulness of the tooth can be saved. The great American habit, “the bolt ing of food,” is one of the most seri ous conditions of our modern life. Dr. Osier has said that the American na tlon could be divided into two classes, bolters and chewers, with the bolters leading by a large majority. If we overcome this habit we must see that our mouths and teeth are In propel condition.—J. J. McCarthy. M. D. (Copyright. Western Newspaper Union.) CROOKED TEETH MAR BEAUTY Irregularity Usually Can Be Prevent ed If Parents Take Proper Care and Precaution. How often we meet with people, otherwise beautiful, whose mouths are disfigured with irregular teeth. It would seem that nature In bestow ing the gifts of form, complexion and the other elements of beauty, had at last balked at the one thing needful to complete the charm. Parsons thus afflicted suffer from decay of their teeth, from inability to chaw their food properly, and their faces appear misshapen, due to the improper de velopment of th« Jaws. The sad part &Dout mis condition is that In nearly every case It might have been prevented easily by proper precaution of the parents, but being neglected It continues to grew worse, and when the child arrives at the age of" discretion and demands that the condition he corrected the work be comes more difficult. Goethe says. ‘Impression is one of the three pow ers that move the world,” no wonder then that the child resents the early negligence of its parents. The chief causes of irregular teeth are thumb sucking, mouth breathing and the early loss of teeth from de cay. Parents should remember that the bones of the child are not yet hardened, and that the slight pres sure of the thumb in the mouth of the child is enough not only to cause irregular teeth, but also to change the shape of the jaw itself. In for mer times little attention was paid to the nose and throat of the child; we have dearly paid for that mistake. Mouth breathing not only causes ir regularity; It also Invites easy Intro duction into the system of various diseases. The child’s nose should be examined early for adenoids or other abnormal conditions. At this time, if there are any cavities formed, the teeth can be easily filled with little or no peln. saving the child and the parents much discomfort later. Most important of all, however, the tem porary teeth should be retained un til the permanent teeth are ready to erupt, and that time ranges from the age of six to that of fourteen. A practice to be condemned is the extraction of loose teeth prematurely. There is a certain time when each tooth should be lost, and quite often a tooth will become loose and be ex tracted by the parent, when it should and could be retained for a longer period and an irregularity be prevent ed.
