PERFECT COOKING Perfect Cleanliness
A HOT BATH can be had in 20 minutes at any time of the
day or night without building a fixe. Intelligent house
wives all over the country are waking up to the fact that
it is cheaper, quicker, cleaner, easier better in every possible
way to cook with GAS than with any other fuel. With the
vast improvement in gas ranges of late years, and the present
low prices of gas in Lincoln, it is no longer economical to use any
but a GAS range. A dinner for ten persons can be cooked on a
GAS RANGE at, a cost of SEVEN CENTS. An ordinary
breakfast can be cooked for about TWO CENTS. A GAS
RANGE is cheaper than any other range. It costs less to 'buy,"
costs less to operate, costs less to maintain. A GAS RANGE
saves TIME, WORRY, MONEY and WORK.

The Spring brings many a newthing, both in material anJ
design. The colors, too, come in for their share of considera
tion. One of the novelties is a new coat model. The coat is a
trifle longer than last season. Broad collar and lapels, cut in
lightly to the figure, and has French pressed side seams with
1 7-inch vent in center of back, making this one of the snappy
coats of the season's creation. Greys will have the call, with
blues and browns a close second, although many fancy mixtures
in neat and bright effects are shown.

' A New Manager
E. A. Julian, who has been repre
senting the Western Newspaper Union
on the road for several years, with
headquarters in Chicago, has been
made manager of the Lincoln branch.
Mr. Julian is an old newspaper man
and one of the most genial gentlemen
imaginable. His ability to manage the
large affairs of the Lincoln branch is
conceded by all who know him, and
the country newspaper men will find
him a pleasant and agreeable man to
do business with. He has served his
time on a country paper, and also
time as a daily newspaper man, and
he knows the newspaper game both
ways from the middle.

to tell the ladies what good union
men they are. Trade Union Advocate.
Short-Sighted.
We find some men with union cards
In their pockets who would .vote
against an assessment of 5 cents if
they thought the same would save
some struggling local from destruc
tion. They think every cent they
give to the local, either in dues or
assessments is spent by the interna
tional officers riding in parlor cars
or drinking champagne but they never
kick about what they "thrown away'
on whiskey, cards, dice and cigarets,
from which they get no benefit in
The Silent Gossip
It isn't always what you say that hurts
your fellow man;
There are other ways of giving him
the "hooks."
And knockers long since learned to try
a more effective plan
They simply do it by their knowing
looks.
No spoken word why waste the
breath? Just give a little wink,
Or elevate your eyebrows half an
inch.
Just toss your head a trifle, smile a
bit and slyly blink, 1
And you've done the dirty business
that's a cinch.
There's Brown, your nearest neighbor,
he's distasteful unto you
But you haven't nerve enough to
speak it out.
So whene'er you hear him mentioned
as a fellow good and true.
You only wink your eye, expressing
doubt.
You grin a knowing kind of grin, your
eyes are narrow slits,
But never say a word from that
you flinch.
But your actions tell your story, and
his name is smashed to bits,
And you've done the dirty business
that's a cinch.
You envy Mrs. Jones a bit, and know
no reason why;
But never stop to give her half a
chance.
You merely hate the woman, though
you smile on passing by
And curl your lips when taking back
ward glance.
You hear her kindly mentioned and
you toss your head and smile.
But wouldn't dare a word in tightest
pinch.
But your nodding tells your feelings,
and in just a little while
You have done the dirty business
that's a cinch.
It isn't always what you say you
needn't say a word
To blast a woman's name beyond re
pair. Perhaps you never spoke her name
that anybody heard,
Yet smooched a reputation that was
fair.
And all the while you do it you are
puffing up with pride
That you wouldn't gossip even in a
pinch;
But your nod or wink or smiling in a
knowing way aside
And you've done the dirty business
that's a cinch.
what you have rather than hustle for
something better.
That you spend a lot of time wish
ing you could do big things and fail to
do the little things that .amount to a
great deal in the aggregate.
It's Too Often the Case
That you spend too much time criti
cizing and too little time helping.
That your boasted "plainness , of
speech" is merely boorishness.
That you content yourself with giv
ing advice instead of lending a helping
hand.
That you are planning such big
things for tomorrow that you forget to
attend to today's duties.
That you grumble at the wrongs
that abound on all sides and fail to
make any effort at righting them.
That you attend to the business of
others without warrant and neglect
your own business without excuse.
That you waste time envying the
man who has a fortune and fail to
make use of what lies at your hand.
That you-yearn for reforms without
giving any assistance to those who
are striving earnestly to bring them
about.
That you waste a lot of time de
nouncing politics as "dirty business"
and neglect to go to the primaries and
purify it.
That you wish you could give mil
lions to save the heathen and forget
to speak the kind word that might help
your neighbor.
That your boasted optimism is mere
ly a laziness that impels you to accept
A Mental Reservation
"Do you not believe that senators
should be elected by the people?" we
asked of Senator Graball.
"I have no objections," replied the
senator after a judicial pause. "How
ever, I see nothing objectionable to
the present system of selecting the
proper man for the people to elect."
Gradual
"It is a sin to steal a pin,"
To steal a loaf is crime.
To steal a beef makes you a thief
And sets you doing time.
But steal some laws and get your paws
On every fellow's throat,
And take his wealth by crook and
stealth
And you're a man of note.
Indeed, that is your greatest chance
To be called "captain of finance."
Of Course
"It is not true that I receive rebates
from the railroads," indignantly cried
the great manufacturer and refiner.
"But I can manufacture and refine
as cheaply as you, and yet you under
sell me and make a profit," com
plained the small manufacturer.
"I reiterate that rebates have noth
ing to do with it," - insisted the mag
nate. After the complainant had retired
the magnate remarked sotto voice:
"Of course, the fact that I own most
of the railroads has nothing to do with
the case." -
Smiling a "knowing smile the mag
nate proceeded to add to his reputa
tion for philanthropy by drawing an
other check. . ,
A Little Fable
i 1 viiw ufpuu a umc c vi uicaua
. builded a beautiful office buMding
j twenty stories high, fitting up, the
rooms with great care, supplying safe
ty vaults, fire escapes, tiled floors and
ornamental lighting fixtures. Then
he advertised for tenants.
"But you have provided no eleva
tor," said the first applicant, "and you
have no stairway."
"Quite true," said the owner. "But
you will observe I have left several
shafts in which elevators may be run."
"But what is the good of that with
out the elevators?" queried the applicant.
"O, that's all right," said the own
er. "As soon as I get a few tenants
I will give some man or corporation a
franchise to operate an elevator, leav
ing him free to make all he can out of
the service."
With a scornful laugh the applicant
turned away and would have no more
dealings with the owner of the beau
tiful building. ' '
Moral:' The people are rapidly grasp
ing it. What is the difference between
an elevator that runs perpendicularly
in a building, and an "elevator" that
runs laterally through the streets? .
Different Now
"The time hangs heavy on my hands,"
The poet sadly wrote.
'Tis different now. Since then lie
signed v v ,
A promissory note. '
And now the way days chase the days
Doth fill that poet with amaze. . .
i Odd i
"That fellow, Hardhedde, is a queer
sort of duffer."
. "What makes you think so?"
"O, he graduated in my class, and
he had the nerve to insist that our
class motto be written in common -English."
.
Good Reason
"Why did you quit Beasley's res
taurant and go to Bardsley's?"
"Well, because Beasley's cooking :
was 'English and the bill ' of fare
French, while Bardsley's cooking Is '
French and the bill of fare English." ,
