Prof. Foster, a very fine temper
ance lecturer, whose meetings for the

We think him much superior to many

his work.
Among the curiosities of setting
up a new Power Press is the wonder
ful facility with which an ordinary
monkey or "8" wrench can crawl out
of the way of the men, even under
boards, piles of old newspapers, and
off in odd corners, behind posts, and
so on. We know they must have done
this, f 9r every one knows printers can't
lie, and each individual boy in the of
fice will swear that he "saw that same
wrench in plain sight," on the floor or
the press but a moment before.
A dry old joker, who lives not far
away, says, that some time ago a wid
ow lived on a certain road leading out
of town. A fellow citizen, who arose
early and came to town to his daily
work, got into the habit of watching
the tracks that led up to the widow's
house, as he walked along, and soon
got so expert that he could tell just
who had visited her. One day he met
a well-to-do fellow citizen, and says:
"You was late up at the widow's this
morning." "Me? I never was at the
widow's, at alll" "You must not lend
your boots to another man, then; let
ine see your right foot!" W-t-d-f-c
showed up, and behold, a projecting
tuck on the nigh quarter of his off foot
gave him away.
Hank Streight says a burly pil
grim walked iato his store, and up to
the window, the other day just a3 he
was busy making out some orders to
go into the mail, passing in a letter
and some change, he says: "I want
two stamps." Hank pushed out the
stamps and change without looking up.
The fellow waited and looked and by
and by says: "Ain't yon goin' to put
them stumps on?" Still writing Hank
answered rather shortly "Xo. I think
you've got about as much time to lick
those stamps and put 'em on as I have,
we don't keep a 'licking clerk at this
Post Office." "You don't lick stamps
here and put 'em on, ch?" "Xo I don't."
"Well you're a h 11 of a Postmaster,
that's all I've got to say. Down at
Plattsmouth they always lick my
stamps and put em on for me.rAeydo."
Hank came dewn hist week to set if
he could engage the "licking clerk,"
from the Plnttsmouth Post office to
come up there awhile.

The renders of this paper this week
will have the pleasure of reading the
flrst issue f a paper ever printed on a
"Power (or Rotary Cylinder) Press" in
this county. We hope it is a pleasure
to them, for it has been anything but
a pleasure to us. "Our new power
press" arrived last week Friday; that
is to Bay, a mass of iron frames, bolts,
screws, slots, holes, rollers and thinge
were hauled up from the Depot, and
the bill called 'em a "Press," but we
found out they wern'ta press by along
shot. All day Saturday, all day Mon
day and most of Tuesday our boys aid
ed by Peter Bates and a host of "super
visors and enumerators" about town
f us'sed with those pieces, and bolts and
screwg and slots and levers and cranks
and eccentrics, and Wednesday morn
ing we could hardly say we had a press
yet, Wednesday noon however, she be
gan to roll them off, and "here's yer pa
per" bright and fresh as ever; not so
good as we would like it, not so much
matter as we will have, but yet the old
Herald wound off on a Cylinder and
squeezed by a crank in the most ap
proved and "eccentric" fashion.
Pardon us If we are a little mixed
this week, a little dizzy as it were. Our
ears have been dinned all the week
with: "Set her up, let her down, tura
her over, let her back, send her for
ward; bow, turn her; forward I! back
ward, raise her, lower her, come ahead,
back her up, put on more pressure,
take it off, unscrew that nut, where's
the wrench, loosen her, tighten her,
where's the wrench, that's it, don't you
forget it, now she goes, where's the
wrench oh! Gosh
how a wrench can hit, where's the
Doctor, sew my lip up, patch my head,
oh my fingers, screw her up, don't hit
there, let her loose, where's the wrench
and don't you forget it,
Any woman around thought I'd
make that press work, new she
work's, where's the wrench; no, she
don't, stop her, twist that iron, ink her,
hit that cam, regulate that eccentric,
where's the wrench, oh here
she goes; oh Lord! 'the fly' won't work,
fix the table, 'don't you forget it,
where's the wrench, my fingers, leoK
out, take care, here she goes, back her,
roll her, lower the cylinder, raise the
feed, fix the tapes, now regulate
'them eccentrics here wo are, now
she goes" till at last, after mashed fin
gers, lost wrenches, big cuss-words,
black-faces and inky-fingers have be
come common property, "thera eccen
tric's" (that, and don't you forget it, is
Peter's talk) all work, the live Machine
moves off in all the wonder of a nine
teenth century invention and clean
and clear the papers fall from the fly
like wheat from the thresher, "and
don't you forget it." ; '- r
Although Cass Couuty is one of the
oldest and richest counties in Nebras
ka, and Plattsmouth one of the oldest
and richest towns on the Missouri
River, this is the first Power Press
ever set np in the County or town.
Owing to the backwardness of our peo
ple in many things and the habit they
have ef sending . all their printing
away from home to save ten cents, r
even five, no printer has heretofore
felt like incurring the expense of so
costly a machine for making news.
Xow the day has come, however,
thanks to new blood, new energy, new
railroad improvements, and better
times generally, when it may pay if
we have the right kind of support, aud
we feel proud as we hope our readers
feel proud that the old Stand by The
Herald, one of the first papers in the
County and oue of the very oldest in
the State wa3 and is the Drst to add
to its power, its strength and capacity
and to your pleasure and profit we
hope, in making this grea,t improve
ment. Give us your hand friends and
help us along, but aboye all give us
your two dollars, to grease the cylin
der and ink the rollers and soon the
Herald will loom up with a nine col
umn Weekly and a neat six column
Daily attachment or annex. "Wehepe
so, and'you hope so, and so mote it be.
We learn on good authority that
Messrs. Crites and Wentworth, pro
prietors of the new Democratic paper
will bo here this week yet, or first of
next with their power press and a
good first class office. Their goods are
all on the train and may arrive any
day. K rites but we'll have papers
enough, eh ?

must be killed.
We always theugbt our matrimoni
al partner was pretty level headed,
pretty strong morally, above small vi
ces, &c, until now. Last night one of
the bovs got a box cover and marked
out 15 squares in it, and then cut some
square pasteboard chips 1, 2, 3, &c, and
at it they went, wife and all. We came
home about ten, and 6, 8, 7, 9, 11, 13,
mumble mumble was all we could hear.
We put an end to that game and the
family retired for slumber there's
where we missed it, 'long in the night
better half was groaning, groaning:
"What's the matter dear? eat too many
apple-dumplings?" (she's very fond of
'em and we'd had'em for dinner) groan,
mutter, "13, 14, 8, 11, oh dear, I can't
get it" a few minutes quiet and then:
"I wish I'd never seen that puzzle."
This is only the first night, what it'll
be when the disease fairly comes to a
head we don't know. Any way we've
let Pepperberg's dog loose evenings
since to keep other folks away s it's
terribly catching.

Draft Plow in the World, aud will
prove to you by a scientific test with
the Dynamometer, that our Plow will
run lighter on the team and carry a

opportunity, and then, when ready to
purchase, you will know where to buy
a Plow that will not kill your horses.
We will give any man $10.00 who will

A young man by the name of Wil
liam Kotz, coachmau for Mr. Charles
McClellan, came to my store one morn
ing complaining that his feet hurt him
very badly, and expressing fears that
they were frost-bitten. He had in vain
tried to get relief by consulting phy
sicians, and had endeavored, without
success, to ease the pain by rubbing
his feet with snow and ice, the reme
dy applied in such cases. Being ex
posed a great deal to the cold by his
occupation, his feet got worse daily,
until one day he fainted in the street.
A few days after he again came to my
store and showed me his feet. I have
seen a great many sores in my life, but
nothing to equal this, and was afraid
the poor fellow would lose his limbs.
He asked me for St. Jacobs Oil: but
at first I refused, as I did not wish to
take the responsibility upon myself,
not being a great admirer of so-called
Patent medicines. However, some
friends, who happened to be in the
store at the time, begged me give the
St. Jacobs Oil to the sufferer; so we
rubbed his feet well with the Oil, and
he took the remainder with him. Aft
er nine days the same man again came
into my store, perfectly well, and re
quested me to write to you of this most
wonderful cure; he also stated, that
two other persons had been cured of
Rheumatism by the same bottle which
helped him. John Lenzex.
