Thank you friends. And by the way, Loup City hands the preacher the same kind of a bunch every Monday morning at his own door. We never saw such a fine way of doing things before. We are very grateful. The Christmas exercises Sunday night were carried out nicely. The program was just right in every way, to suit our taste anyhow. The closing scene of the campfire, flag and cross was beautiful. Kind friends brought the parsonage folks a fine dressed goose, two nice dressed chickens, but ter, cream, mincemeat, jelly, etc. It will not be their fault if the preacher doesn't fatten up.

Baptist. While sorrow has come the homes of so many of our families, caused by the death of a dear father , no one outside of the immediate family feels the great loss of brother Moon, more than the pastor of the church. Deacon Moon was always found in his accustomed place, and was one- of the most attentive hearers. He was, therefore, an inspiration to the speaker. Willm iss him. He alwavs gave liberally to the support of the Lords work, and when ever he discovered a need, was one of the first to give. During his long life of Christian service, he had learn ed the meaning of. and ever remem bered. his Saviors word, how he said. : it is more blessed to give than to re ceive. The spirit of his Lord had en tered his life, who came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and give his life in service. We have read the life of Christ beautifully and eloquently written, and have admired the talent of the persons who could write so well, but the best life of Christ is his living biography written out in the words and actions of his followers. Such was the eloquent life of our brother. May God raise up more men like him in our churches. A large number were present to pay their last respects to the deceased, the sermon being preached by the pastor. Rev. Dan Buress, of Grand Island will preach next Sunday morning. In the evening there will be a union meeting of the Young People Societies of the town held in our church, led by Rev. Burress, beginning at 9 o’clock, and continuing until 10 o’clock, after which there will be an intermis sion of thirty minutes. Then will fol low a song service led by Rev. Steen, sermon by Rev. Beebe. Let this be a memorable meeting. Our Annual Church Meeting will be held at the church Thursday evening. Jan. 4th. Let every member of the church be present. We take this method of thanking the good people for the chicken re cently received. We want Rev. Beebe to know that he is not getting all the chickens. Wishing everybody a happy and prosperous New Year. SHERIFF’S SALE. Notice is hereby given that by virtue of an order of sale to me directed from the District Court of Sherman County.

With corn above 50 cents hogs eat their heads off very quickly. The hog hat takes two or three months to get on full feed never brings you a pro fit. When you are ready to put your shoats on feed, begin with the B. A. Thomas Hog Medicine. Use regularly and watch your shoats round out into fat hogs in nine months—hogs going] well over 200 pounds and as high as 240 pounds. Figure the average feed ing and you will see why the B. A. Thomas medicine is a good invest ment. Try feeding out your hogs on this plan and if you are not more than pleased, we will refund the cost of the medicine.—J. J. Slominski, Loup City. WHY SUFFER SO? Why suffer from a bad back, from sharp shooting twinges, headaches, dizziness and distressing urinary ills? Loup City people recommend Doan’s Kidney Pills. Could you ask for stronger proof of merit? Mrs. W. H. Hughes, Loup City, says: “I have been a sufferer from kid ney and bladder trouble off and on for many years. The kidney secretions were retarded and at times, my hands and feet swelled up. I was dizzy and everything turned black before me. I read such good accounts about Doan’s Kidney Pills helping others, that I decided to try them, procuring them at Swanson’s Drug store. They helped me wonderfully.” Price 50 cents at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Hughes had. Foster-Milbum Co., Props., Buffalo, N.
