D*PRICE’S _Powder The only Pure Cream of Tartar Ptfwder.—No Ammonia; No Alum. Used in Millions of Homes—40 Years the Standard_ OUTING SHOES. It long ago seemed as though shoes could never be better and never be cheaper, but they are better now and cheaper now than they ever were before. The great every day favorite is our men’s and ladies’ shoe. It is as much a boon to the pocketbook as it is to the feet. It won’t wear you out to wear it out. You don’t need to take care of it; it takes care of itself. It will give you solid com fort for the simple reason that a better shoe for knockabout pur poses has never been produced. If prices never appealed to you before, the price of this shoe will, for it costs only §2.50. It will look nicer and wear longer than any shoe on earth. The Palladiai) literary society of the Nebraska university has secured Hon. Henry Watterson, editor of the Louis ville Courier-Journal, to deliver his cel ebrated lecture, “Money and Morals," in Lincoln, January 18th. It again suggests itself to The TRI BUNE that our board of county commis sioners should consider the matter of purchasing land for a county home, while real estate is low. Red Willow oounty is rapidly coming to the point where she can take care of her paupers more cheaply perhaps in a county home than by the present expensive manner. The matter may well receive the thought and attention of the commissioners at all events. The Farmers’ club held a short but interesting session in the city hall, Sat urday afternoon, William Weygint in the chair and R. S. Hileman, secretary. Besides discussing various topics of moment to the farmer, the coming convention in our city, January 18th, was considered, and the following com mittee of reception was named to re neive those who may attend the conven tion from adjoining counties: Box El der precinct, Stephen Bolles; Red Wil low precinct, S. L. Miller; Driftwood precinct, R. S. Hileman; Coleman pre cinct, A. C. Modie; Perry precinct, John Real; Willow Grove precinct, Wm. Weygint. They hope to enter tain a goodly number of delegates and to have an interesting session on the 18th instant. Every Man whose watch has been rung out of the bow (ring), by a pickpocket, Every Man whose watch has been damaged by drop ping out of the bow, and Every Man of sense who merely compares the old pull out bow and the new will exclaim: “Ought to have been made long ago!” It can’t betwistedoff the case.

The days arc now sixteen minutes longer at each end than they were on the 21st day of Decmher, and the change is perceptible. A newspaper man may never own the earth, but, then he has it under him all the time, which amounts to about the same thing. With pork at $(1 to $7 per hundred it will not pay the Nebraska tanner to ship his corn to the cast. Keep it if possible to make more pork. We stilt have a few boxes of writing paper left, and we will sell them at less than cost. We are closing them out at any price. Tribune stationery depart ment. Once more The Tribune makes the announcement that it would be glad to publish scraps of history and incidents of the early settlement of Red Willow county. One of Rev. .McBride’s boys was in from the Frontier county farm, close of last week, to have the doctor repair the damage caused his fingers while lie was ‘‘monkeying’’with the corn sheller.

The social feature gave much pleasure to all present It has been extremely cold, blowy and snowy to the north, east and west, while here the temperature has simply been agreeable. By comparison, in winter as well as in summer, it is found that McCook holds the favorite climate. While the sun rolls on in splendor through the broad ethereal dome, while the weary world is waiting for the cows to hurry home; just so long as the sil ver-moonbeams kiss the frosty face of night, there will be two applications where one office is in sight.—Col. Bixby. The public should understand that the red flag with the black center which occasionally floats over The Tribune office is not A BLIZZARD indicator, but simply announces the change of temper ature of at least 20 degrees within 12 or 24 hours. It is what is known as the cold wave flag. J. M. Henderson announces a public sale at his farm four miles due north of McCook on Wednesday, January 18th, commencing at 10 o’clock, A. M.

As a newspaper it is the intention to know no sect, sex or class, clique or color. We want to and will give the city all the news obtainable. The big and lit tle are all alike with us. A man is a man whether he is rich or poor. Brother Carpenter, late of the West ern Patriot of Indianola, has vehem ently averred in season and out of sea son, that a pass was a bribe. But Brother Carpenter himself does not seem insensible to the winsome woo ibgs of several bribes, as both his child ren, who have secured a place in the present legislature as well as himself, recently traveled to Lincoln from In dianola on bribes, to enter upon their duties. Some reformers even find the flesh to be weak, when passes and bribes are in sight.

The bigger the fool, the greater the critic; the denser the ignorance the more bigoted the man; the less the piety the greater the noise, and the bigger the hypocrite the greater the anxiety to be in a front seat.

Some 7,000 postoffice employes had the protection of the civil service rules thrown about them by the recent exten sion of the classified service, and they can now regard a change in the nation al administration with complacency.

There are three roads which lead from health to consumption. Over one of these roads pass all of the great mul titude of people who die every year of consumption. Each route begins with health and happiness and ends with di sease and death. They are described as follows: 1st road, a slight cold— neglected—settles in the head or throat —chronic catarrh—extends to the lungs —consumption—death. 2d road, a slight cold—neglected—cough—settles on the lungs—cough gradually growing worse —consumption—death. 3d road, a cold —neglected—settles in the throat— hoarseness—short breath—consump tion—death. Thousands have just started on one of these roads, all of whom could be easily cured by Fe-ru-na, thousands more are half way to the fatal end of one of these roads who are still curable by a course of treatment with Pe-ru-na: and yet other thousands are near the end whose last days would be made more bearable and hope of recovery more probable by commencing Pe-ru-na without delay.
