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.
A bout siity-five people will be required
to fill the car, and efforts are to be

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.

In enclosing subscription for visits
of the Northwestern for the coming
twelve months, our good friend, John
J. 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.”

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.

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.
