GROVER and Dave have kissed
and made up.
THE Hastings Nebraskan has
suspended till better times.
SENATOR RATHBUN has a bill in
his incubator which asks the state
for an appropriation to secure water -
er for irrigating purposes from
artesian wells.
THE hardy settlers of Red Willow -
low county have no thought of giving -
ing up the ship , notwithstanding
the hardships imposed upon them
by two consecutive crop failures.
THouGH needy , western Nebraska -
ka is not in a starving conditionas
pictured in the eastern press by
highly imaginative quill-drivers.
Needy and deserving , but hardy
and hopeful.
REPRESENTATIVE LAMBORN has
introduced house bill No. 1 which
provides that counties may issue
ten-year bonds and buy seed and
feed for needy settlers. It provides -
ides severe penalties for fraud in
applying for relief.
REPRESENTATIVE LAMBORN is
chairman of the committee on federal -
eral relations , on is a member of
the committees on railroads , manufactures -
ufactures and commerce , claims ,
rules , insurance and irrigation. On
the irrigation committee are also
McBride , Bee and Cole of the Republican -
publican valley delegation. So
that there is no good excuse for
the interests of the people to go
s. - astray on that paramount question.
THE California irrigation law , or
the "Wright bill" as it is generally
called , is in many respects unsuited -
ed to our wants and needs in this
: Q , state. We understand that the law
proposed for enactment at the present -
ent session of the legislature is
practically the Wright law of Cali-
fornia. Among other objections ,
it is too elaborate , cumbersome and
expensive ; it does not sufficiently
protect the water consumer. This
matter of the irrigation law proposed -
posed for passage by the present
legislature demands closest scru-
tiny. We should have the simplest ,
most equitable , least expensive law
in its operation , that can be enact-
ed. The case does not require a
lot of high-priced officials justnow
at all events. Give us a fair and
square law sans trimmings.
A CHANCE TO MAKE MONEY.
In the past week I have made
X125 and attended t0 my household
duties. I think I will do better
next week. It seems the more Dish
Washers I sell , the more demand
I have for them. I think any lady
or bgentlemEn , anywhere , can make
money in this business. It is something -
thing every family wautsand when
they can be bought so cheap , they
buy them , and the person who
has enterprise enough to take an
agency is sure to make money. I
wish any of your readers that wish
to make from $5 to $12 a day ,
would try this business and report
their success. Any one can get
fall particulars by addressing the
Iron City Dish Washer Co. , E. E.
Pittsburg , Pa. Such a chance is
rare-at least I have never struck
one. MARTHA F. B.

The average civilized man would be
hard put to it if ho were compelled to
start a fire without matches , tinder boxer
or burning glass. But Lieutenant von
Hohnel describes an African chief as
not only accomplishing this feat , but
doing it with quickness and ease. The
traveler had asked him to show his skill.
It was really wonderful , in view of
the moisture laden atmosphere , with
what rapidity he did as I had requested.
The materials employed were such as
we saw wherever we went-two simple
bits of wood , ono flat about six inches
long and not quite an inch wi.e , with
a row of grooves on one side , the other
about 12 inches long and of the thickness -
ness and shape of a lead pencil.
The longer piece , fixed in one of the
grooves of the shorter pinta , was held
tightly between the palms of the hand
and whirled rapidly round and round.
In a few seconds the wood dust which
was prodncedbythefriction , and which
fell through the grooves , began to smoke.
This dust was carefully nursed into a
blaze , which was fed with fine grass
and bits of cotton stuff.
The whole thing is done so quickly
that our men , even the lazy Wasnngu ,
always employed this method on short
halts forlighting their pipes-Yonth's
Companion.
No Nerd Like the Doctors.
Mr. Sydney Holland enlivened the
guests at the annual festival of Poplar
hospital by relating an incident which
occurred within the walls of that insti-
tution. A man was brought in who was
thought to be dead. His wife was with
him. One of the doctors said , "He is
dead , " but the man raised his head and
said , "No , I am not dead yet , " whereupon -
upon his wife admonished him , saying ,
"Be quiet ; the doctor ou1it to know
best.London Echo.

AN OLD COLD
Is CHRONIC OATARRIJ , THE WORsT
DISEASE KNOWN.
The first stage of catarrh is corn-
monly called catching cold. It
may begin in the head , nosethroat ,
or lungs. In the majority of cases
no attention is paid to a coldthere- ,
fore nearly half the people have
chronic catarrh in some form. To
neglect a cold is to invite catarrh.
The second stage of catarrh is
sometimes called an old cold. If
in the head , there is roaringcrack-
ing in the ears , periodical headache -
ache , and confusion of the senses.
If in the nose , discharge , sneezing.
noisy breathing , and bad breath.
In the throat it produces enlarged
tonsils , hawking , sore throathoarsE- ,
ness or weak voice. When the catarrh -
tarrh reaches the bronchial tubes
and lungs it produces cough , pain
in the chest , expectoration , night
sweats , loss of flesh and shortness
of breath.
A cold in the head , which a single -
gle bottle of Pe-ru-na will cure ,
soon becomes a case of chronic Ca-
tarrhwliich , will require many bottles -
tles to entirely cure. A sore throat ,
which one bottle of Pe-ru-na will
cure , soon becomes chronic phar-
yngitis or enlarged tonsils , which
will require many bottles. A slight
cough , which , without a vestige of
doubt , will soon disappearwith the
use of Pe-ru-na , becomes chronic
bronchitis , which requires a persistent -
sistent use o Pe-ru-na for some
time. There are a great many
cases of consumption each year
due directly to a neglect of coughs ,
colds , etc. , which , if Pe-ru-na had
been kept in the house and used
according to directionswould have
been prevented.

coughs , colds , consumption , and al ]
diseases of winter , send to The Pe-
ru-na Drug Manufacturing Co. ,
