Some Refreshment.
Ar. admiral, during the maneuvers

den party.
"The navv is as abstemious from
erii.cal reasons." he began, "as Old
Sttngee was from miserliness.
"Old St ingee was entertaining a boy
hood friend one evening at his shore
cottage After a couple of hours of
dry talk the old fellow said, genially:
" Would you like some refreshment
—a cooling dratt. say—George?'
• Why. yes. 1 don't care if I do.'
said George and he passed his hand
across hi. mouth and brightened up
wonderfully.
"Good' said Old Snngee. ‘I'll just :

BUILT A MONUMENT
The Eest Sort in the World.
•'A monument built by and from
Postum. is the way an Illinois maa
describes himself He says:
"For years I was a coffee drinker
until at last 1 became a terrible suf- '
ferer from dyspepsia, constipation,
headaches and indigestion.
"The different kinds of medicine I
tri'-d did not cure me. and finally some ;
one 'old me to leave off coffee and
ikae up Postum. I was fortunate In
having the Postum made strictly ac
c. ruing to directions on the pkg.. so
that from the start 1 liked iL
"Gradually my condition changed. !
The old troubles disappeared and I
b» uan to feel well again Jly appetite
be*' ame good and 1 could digest Kod j
Now I am re>rored to strength and
heahh. can sleep sound all night and
awake with a fresh and rusted body.
"I am really a monument built bT
Posium. for I was a physical wreck,
distressed in body and mind, and am
now a strong, healthy man. I know
exactly what made the change; it was
leaving off coffee and using Postum."
Name given by Postum Co.. Battle

v ille." in pkgs.
Postum comes in two forms:
Postum Cereal—the original form
must be well boiled. 15c and 25c pack
ages.
Irstant Postum—a soluble powder
dissolves quickly in a cup of hot war
ter, and w ith cream and sugar, makes
a delicious beverage instantly. 30c and
50c tins.
Both kinds are equally delicious and
cost about the same per cup.

Designates Good Roads Days.
Lincoln.—A good roads proclamation
issued by Governor Morehead readr, !
as follows, in part:
"Realizing the excessive rains in
Nebraska and lateness of the season, j
I have delayed asking the commercial j
clubs and other organizations to co- ■
operate with me in devoting two days
to the making of good roads in Ne
braska
• The travel by auto to the Pacific |
exposition through Nebraska is great
and i am desirous of having the peo
ph who pass through our state, credit
us with being progressive in the way
of good roads as well as in legisla
tion. And our roads are in sonstant
use by all the people of Nebraska
"i have designated Thursday and
Friday, Julj 2i< and SO, as "Good
Roads Days.' Traveling as I by,
by automobile, it has been a sur
prise to me to find our roads in as
good condition as they are. consider
ing the wet weather we have had. If j
each person would spend a few days j
on the roads near their home the re
suit would be good dirt roads in Ne- !
braska.
"i ask all the farmers, business
men. commercial clubs and other or
ganizations to co-operate in this mat
ter and I feel that every man should
dor. !u's overalls and give at least ij;e j
length of time stated, to putting our i
roads in good rendition.
"It is just as essential to have good
roads as it is to have good houses and
barns and the people of the city use
them as much in going to the country
as the farmers do in coming to the j
city We can all join in boosting and '
w. irking for good roads as ail are in- !
teresied
"It is my earnest desire that all
may take an interest in this important i
movement."
Relic Mil ions of Years Old.
In the discovery of a fairly con;
plete skeleton of a prehistoric mas- :
lotion, together with a large number
of horse teeth. lames of camels and
probably what are the remains of
:ieer. Nebraska scientists believe that
ane of the richest paleontological
linns of the year has just been made i
at Bristow in the i xtreme northern
part of Nebraska by Dr. E. H. Bar
hour and Prof H. Eaton of the !
university museum. The mastodon is j
said to be of be of peculiar int- rest j
and value because of being probab'y
nine million years old.
Most Babies Fed On Bottle.
Sixty p< r cent of the babies of Xt •
liraska are bottle-fed as nearly as
the state authorities can gather tbe
information. The figures are given I
to show the necessity of pasteurizing
milk and as Retiring State Veteri
narian Kigin says: “There's greater
net d of combating the diseases that ^
thrive in the milk we give our babies
than fighting against the things that
lead to war—for the mortality is
greater in our peace pursuits, through
nur carelessness, than on the battle
fields through our indiscretions"
Says Warehouse Law Defective.
Tbe public warehouse law. passed
by the last legislature, in the opinion
of Attorney General Reed, cannot be
enforced by the State Raliwav com
mission. He gives as his reasons that
the rai'wav commission was created
for the purpose of supervising rail
road rates and that it has no author
ity to take over any other matters
Dot set out in the law which created
tbe commission.
Kansas Wheat Crop Short.
Gustav Dilgert of Atchison. Kan., a j
cousin of Philip Ackerman, hotel com- j
missioner. while visiting hint, said j
conditions sunounding the harvesting
of the wheat crop in his locality are
alarming It is estimated, according
to the Kansas man. that the wheat
crcp of that state will be jm.OOO.tXKl
busheis short this season.
7.689 Ncgroe* in State.
Reports of tile federal census bu
reau just forwarded to the state house
show the residence of 7.6S9 negroes in
Nebraska, of which 4.259 are males
and 2.420 are females.
Apple Crop to Be l~arge.
Ti e apple crop of Nebraska will
be an immense one and the quality
of the apples will be tiie best for
many years, according to Ernest M.
Pollard, president of the Apple Grow
ers' association, who was in Lin
coln recently.
Bank Stock Increases.
An increase of $5,625,000 in the ac
tual valuation of bank stock is appar
ent on the state assessment roll this
year, according to the returns gather
ed from eighty-three counties. This
is due directly to the Osterman bill,
which forbids banks from deducting
the value of real estate mortgages
troiu tlieir capital stock for purposes
of taxation. The increase means pay
ment of something like $50,000 more
in taxes than could have been gath
ered under the law allowing banks to
make deductions.
NOTE IS FINAL WORD
KAISER TOLD AMERICAN RIGHTS
WILL EE UPHELD.
MILLING TO ACT AS MEDIATOR
United States Government Rejects
Proposals in Recent German Note.
No Course is Outlined.
Washington.—The new note to Ger
many is a warning that the repeti
tion of a disaster such as that vis
ited upon the Lusitania, or any vio
lation of American rights on the
high seas, resulting in loss of Amer
ican lives, will be regarded as "un
friendly."
The note is in the nature of a final
statement by the United Siatts of the
interpretation that will be placed by
this government on future transgres
sions of American rights and repeats
that the American government will
leave nothing undone to stand by the
posit iou it nas previously declared.
Chief Points in Nots.
1—Tiie assumption by the United
Stales that Germany, by declaring its
submarine warfare to be a retaliatory
measure against the alleged unlawful
acts of its enemies, has admitted that
the destruction of unresisting mer i
chant men without warning is illegal j
“—German submarine commanders
already have proven that they can
save the passengers and crews of ves
sels and can act in conformity with
the laws of humanity in making war
on enemy ships.
" —The United States cannot allow
tiie relations between the belliger
ents to operate in any way gs an ah
breviation of the rights of neutrals
and therefore any violation of tin
principles, for which the American
government contends, resulting in a
hiss of American lives will be viewed
as “unfriendly ”
4— The renresmtations which the
American government lias made in
previous notes for disavowal of the
intention to sink the Lusitania with
Americans aboard and the request
for reparation are reiterated with re
newed insistence
Willing to Mediate.
5— Tiie American government rea
lizes the unusual and ahnornial con
ditions which the present conflict has,
created in the conduct of maritime
war and is willing to act as an inter
mediary between tiie belligerents to
arrange a modus vivendi or any other
temporary arrangements which do not
involve a surrender by the United
States of its rights
6— The proposals made by Germany
to give immunity to American ships
not carrying contraband and to four
liellig.-rent ships under the American
dag are rejected with the emphatic
assertion that to accept such sugges
tions would lie to admit Germany's
right to set aside tiie American con
tention based on fundamental prtn
ciples in international law—that neu
tra’s may travel anywhere on tiie high i
seas on unresisting ships of any na ;
tlonaliij even if carrying contraband, j
While nowhere iu it is there an> i
direct intimation of the course which I
the United States will pursue in the j
event of another disaster similar tc j
the Lusitania tragedy, there are em- '
uliatic statements throughout the!
communication pointing out that the
discussion of the principles involved
las been virtually concluded and that
future conduct of German submarine
commanders will determine the re
sponsibility for the friendly relations
between the two countries.
Must Pay for Aid.
Washington—Suits are about io be
brought by the government against
American citizens who. though ap
patently able to do so, refuse to re
pay money expended for their relief
when they were stranded in Europe
at the outbreak of the war. Many of
those aided have reimbursed the gov
eminent, but Secretary McAdoo said
there had been a number of refusals
and that he would ask the Depart
ment of Justice to institute suits.
Treasury officials say that so far no
exact accounting had been made of
the amount expended in relief work.
Cong: ess appropriated $2,750,000. and
it is believed that more than $2,000.

Many Married Men in Army.
London.—Speaking for the govern
ment in the House of Lords, Lord
Newton said that the number of mar
ried men at present in the British

these men has- been £25.000.000
($4,125,000,000).
Shot Same As Father Was.

Rich Man’s Fad.
"Speaking of starting things and not
finishing them,” said a New TTork busi
ness man. "See that old fellow over
there?” pointing to a gray-haired, stal
wart-looking man, "that's Colonel
Blank, whose fortune runs in the seven
figures. He has a curious habit of
carrying a memorandum bock around
with him and whenever he spends any
money he jots down the figures. One
day I got talking to him about it and
he pulled the book out of his pocket
to show me. What was my amaze
ment on looking at It to discover that
not one of the pages was totaled up. I
asked him, naturally, whether he
never added the columns to find how
much he « as spending. He told me
that he did not and never had; the
practice w as too discouraging. A sense
of duty impelled him to put down the
items, but there he stopped. An inter
esting man, although a trifle eccen
tric.”
