"We have three children. Before the birth of the last one my wife used four hot ties of MOTHER'S FRIEND , If you had Ilie pictures of our children , you could sue al a glance that the last one Is healthiest , prettiest an J flnest-looklnpofthemall. My wife thinks Mother's Friend Is the greatest and grandest remedy In the world for expect ant mothers. " Written by a Ken tucky Attorncy-at -Law. prevents nine-tenths of the suffering Incident to child birth. The coming mother's disposition and temper remain unruffled throughout the ordeal , because this relax ing , penetrating liniment relieves the usual distress. A good-natured mother Is pretty sure to have a good-natured child. The patient is kept In a strong , health ? condition , which the child also inherits. Mother's Friend takes a wife through the crisis quickly and almost painlessly. II assists In her rapid recovery , and wards off the dangers that so often follow de livery.

But very little lias boon said na yet about the county fair , but this is not because the management has not boon nt work. Every detail is now practically ar ranged , nnd when we say that the fair in Broken Bow iuSeptcmbor will be the best county fair in the state we have something with which to back .the assertion. In the first place it takes money to run a successful fair nnd the business mon of Broken Bow have signified their intention to contribute $500 to insure it a big success. Aside from this the society has over $500 in the treasury , which gives $1,000 as a starter. The premiums this year are very liberal. For instance in the farm department , in addition to the reg ular premiums offered on single ex hibits , lour prizes of $20 , § 15 , $1 ( and $5 are offered on the best dis play of products. The live stock premiums are good nnd iu this department a new feature will bo introduced this year in the shape of an auction sale of fine stock which will take place on the last da ; of the fair. A first class uuctionco will be provided and those having stock on exhibition which they de sire to sell can put it up to the high est bidder. Already there liuvo boon many inquires from parties who are anxious to better their breeds of cat tle and desire to buy blooded stock. Prof. Tooloy has been induced to lend his assistance toward making the school dodartmcnt a ouccess , and through his efforts four splendid li braries , valued at from $25 down nro offered for collective school exhibits. There should bo a very largo amount of school work entered. The sporting program this year is a monster. A great big spued pro gram with twenty-one events , intro ducing some new and novel races , a splendid list of bicycle racus and a fine program of minor sports , such as ring spearing and various foot races are among the leading features. A big base ball tournament at which it is expected there will be at least eight teams participate is also a loading attraction , and will make a spirited cdutest for the county championship. Probably the greatest interest in the entire sporting program will center in the Jack Knbbit Chase , which will bo superintended by Judge H. M. Sullivan , who is a great lover of this class of sport. A lurge number of Jack rabbits'will beheld held in captive , and the chase will take place in the open space in the center of the track circle where a grand view can be hud from all parts of the grounds. All parties having I ; ' bounds are requested to bring them. Prizes will be awarded. In every way the fair this year promises to not only eclipse all for mer ones , but it is expected to bo the best county fair to be seen in Nebraska during the year 1900. The date September 1M2-18-14 , is a most favorable ono , and there is no reason why it should not be a prounced success , if money , good mnnugement and untiring work counts for anything.
