But even at this price we make a reasonable profit. The profit we make, how ever, is not nearly as great as the saving to you. We can demon these facts if you come in. Union-Made Goods Lots of them.

The shares are $50 each, payable in 10 months at $5.00 per month on each share purchased. It is confidently expected that this stock will increase in value rapidly and also pay large dividends. ' The most conservative business men of Lincoln are buying th's stock, and we want YOU to have at least one share, a ft is intended to secure the co-operation of many hundrejof stockholders with small in vestments, rather than a few with large investments. Every dollar subscribed will be put into the company's property; no cash is paidTout for promotion. EVERY DOLLAR OF COST WILL BE UNION MA TERIAL AND LABOR! It seems unnecessary to argue the profit in the busi ness. Ice, alone, will pay good dividends. The most conser vative estimate would be at least ten per cent annually, riany other concerns pay four or five times this. Write to any aridress below and say how many shares you want. No mone wilt be asked for until enough is sub scribed to make it sJfe to call the money. It will be thirty or sixty days before any money will be asked for, and then you will be notified where to pay the first payment. 1 That City's Central Labor Union Has. Issued Warning. In view of the fact that the press of the country has been publishing articles stating that there is a short ape of skilled mechanics on the Pa cific coast, and that the government is ftarful it cannot get enough men to repair the battleships which are corn it g to that section to be overhauled and put in order, the Central Labor Union of Seattle, at a recent meet ing, formally declared that all such articles were misleading and were disseminated for the purpose of cheapening labor by flooding that sec tirn with skilled mechanics, thereby making a glut in the market, inas ruich as there are now many mechan ic? registered at the navy yard who cennot get employment. The Centra! Labor Union, therefore, warns all union workmen not to be deceived by such reports, and to make careful inquiry as to the conditions before starting for Seattle. The bakers there alvo report a large number of idle n.en, and some other crafts show the same state of affairs.-i-St. Paul Union Advocate. 0YT, n m ' " M I MORJHS FBIEHD, J Cor. 7th and P J vr.f - DIRECTORS J.

During the money flurry- that re cently threw a scare into the coun try, Secretary of the Treasury George U. Cortelyou said: "One of the most giatifying incidents of our recent trouble was the prompt and patriotic response of many great labor organ izations to the appeal of employers for their co-operation. This co-operation should be availed of everywhere and generously recognized as a dis t'net step toward a better under standing between employer and em ploye." There was not a single in stancy where the union qjals got cold feel and demanded TueTrnlaney. The union men of the country could nave demanded cash ror their work and caused untold trouble and fail ures of banks and employers, but they did the square thing. Right here in Omaha at the very moment when the unions and union men were helping to hold the country in the prosperity column, one of our na tional bankers called one of his de positors to his desk and said: "If .ou are employing union men we cannot give you any of our business."' That is the way this banker "gen erously recognized" the co-operation O! the'unions.

A great many staunch unionists may pot be aware or the fact that tho Youth's Companion is a "rat" publica tion. It is and it is on the "we don't patronize list." Too bad. Such an exponent of "good" ought to practice what it preaches. A BIG PLANT. The Righter Linotype Composition Co., is the largest linotype job plant in-; he state.

Men ought to find the difference be tween saltness and. bitterness. Cer tainly he that hath a satirical vein, as he maketh others afraid of his wit, so he hath need be afraid of others' memory. Francis Bacon.. Women Lack Dignity. An English periodical writer, that is, a writer for periodicals, says that women do not know how to walk, and get along like mechanical toys. "The deplorable lack of dignity in women," he says, "is one cause of the bad walking." Our forbears were dignified and the oriental of to-day has inherit ed the trait, but the modern woman has it not. THE LEATHER WORKERS. Business Slack, But the Men Adopt Heroic Work Rules. Business is reported awfully dull among the leatherworkers. In order to distribute the work up and keep as many families as possible provided for, the local union has adopted an eight hour rule with a $10 a week limit. The man who works eight hours a day and as soon as his weekly wage rtaches $10 he lays otf and lets an other man take his place. In this way the money is distributed and none are feeling the pinch of poverty. Of course among "free and independents" this rule would not obtain. The "hogs" would work as long as they could, re. gurdless of the privations of their less fortunate fellows. But being the "slaves of a tyrannical trades union" the leatherworkers haven't got any more sense than :o actuo'ly take steps to make it as easy as possible tor all. CAPITAL AUXILIARY.

JOR'S MEMORIAL DAY. Lniuch discussion at the A. F. Iveiition, it was finally decided t-cor.d Sunday in the month designated and observed jbers of organised labor cojntry as "Labor's Drunkenness in 1600. An English traveler, writing in the year 1600, said that there were more saloons in Dublin than in any other city in the world. The Irish, he said, always got drunk at wakes, weddings and fairs. The English were not far behind them, and over on the conti nent alcohol was also making great headway. Here in America, too, drink ing was becoming a popular sport. Cheaper Rate Than the Doctor's. A few years ago on Sutter street in San Francisco an ambitious young Japanese had a little store stocked with goods imported from his native land. In his show window was a stack of decorated mush bowls and leaning against their front was a cardboard sign bearing in stenciled letters this announcement, "Fine Bowels, 50 cents a set."

To ' play behind a foursome , com posed of Frenchmen one must resign all attempt to play, golf, and in place of it you must feel that you are com pensated by watching the pantomime of the quartet preceding you. . Trust me, you will be amply repaid. That is, if nature has endowed you with a sense of humor. Golf Illustrated. Black Potatoes. A late novelty in the way of a black potato has just reached the vegetable markets. The potato was sent from the Congo, and is said to have an ex cellent flavor. It is to be used for ornamental cookery. What-to-Eat ,. When the Lamp Misbehaves. If a lamp should ever be overturned, do not attempt to put out the Same with water, for it will simply spread it.
