Stone and A. S. Grannell have re turned from Franklin and report a good time and a large turn-out. This locality was visited by light showers on Sunday , Monday and Tuesday nights , and the late corn and wild hay are doing well now. The concert people met at the school-house , Wednesday evening , and judging from the amount of interest shown , the concert will be a grand success. It was a mistake about Frank Fitch and Roy Jacobs going to Oklahoma , as they ex pect to go to Lincoln to school : Frank to the Wesleyan and Roy to the Nebraska univer sity. After many intricate experiments , scientists have discovered methods for obtaining all the natural digestants. These have been com bined in the proportion found in the human body and united with substances that build up the digestive organs , making a compound called Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. It digests what you eat and allows all dyspeptics to eat plenty of nourishing food while the stomach troubles are being radically cured by the medicinal agents it contains. It is pleasant to take and will give quick relief. D. W. Loar. St. Louis has the world's largest hardware house. To Cure a Cold In a Day. Take Laxative Broiuu Quinine Tablets.

Brewer returned home , Sunday , from the west , where he has been quite sick , so did not find a location. The grove meetings , Saturday and Sunday , were well attended. Presiding Elder Hard- away of Holdrege and Rev. Badcon of Mc Cook assisted Rev. Robinson. The meetings were enjoyably profitable. The law holds both maker ami circulator of a counterfeit equally guilty. The dealer who sells you a dangerous counterfeit of De- Witt's \Vitch Hazel Salve risks your life to make a little larger profit. You can not trust him. DeWitt's is the only genuine and orig inal Witch Hazel Salve , a well known cure for piles and all skin diseases. See that your dealer gives you DeWitt's Salve. D. W. Loar. An inscription on a tombstone in a Penn sylvania graveyard reads : "He was An Hon est Man. " He died in 1798. Constipation , impaired digestion and a tor pid liver , are the most common ailments that are responsible for that tired , listless , fagged- out feeling that makes the summer a dreaded period to so many people. Herbine will cure constipation , it "improves the digestion , and arouses the liver to normal activity. Price , 50 cents. A. McMillen. An exchange says : "The shirtwaist man has come to stay ! " Good heavens ! Corsets , too ? It has been demonstrated by experience that consumption can be prevented by the early use of One Minute Cough Cure. This is the favorite remedy for cough , colds , croup , asthma , grippe and all throat and lung troubles. Cures quickly. D. W. Loar.

The yield of small grain and the prospect of a corn crop are better than believed il would be , a few weeks ago. Mrs. E. A. Hamilton and daughter , Miss Sadie , have returned from their extended visit in the eastern part of the state. Dr. J. E. Ilathorn lost a valuable cow , Sat urday. She was staked out , and breaking the picket-rope , got into a near-by cane patch , d ing in a few minutes. Several of our sports attended the ball game at Indianola between the Oberlin and Indian- ola nines. They say Indianola won easily ( with the help of Oberlin. ) Miss Sadie Hamilton began a term of school at Wakeful Hill school-house , Monday. Sadie is a successful teacher ; by her winning ways and ability to instruct she has the friendship of both pupils and patrons. A visit to the Inter-Ocean office , Tuesday , disclosed everything from the editor to the shooting-stick to be all mixed up. Birth notices in the galleys and in every column al ready placed in the chases. Inquiry reveals the cause , which was an extra issue bearing the marks of Editor Matthews. This issue had been locked in the form for some months , but was not brought before the public until about 2 p. m. , Tuesday. It's of the feminine gender and weighed eight pounds. Mother and babe doing finely. Cecil is yet in a pre carious condition. We notice that Samuel Randolph don't be lieve a man can be a lawyer and successful farmer at one and the same time. Tis very likely there are many lawyers who could not be successful in agriculture and law. and it is quite often the case those engaged in these vocations are not successful in both or either of them , but from this we can not reasonably infer that there are not some persons whose ability enables them to make a success in one or more occupations. We had the pleasure of visiting W. S. Morlan's farm and found him superintending all the details of the work , neglecting nothing which was necessary to make his farming a success. Every part of the work was done in a thorough and sys tematic manner , just as Mr. Morlan has the reputation of doing his legal work. And we suggest to the county fair management they would do a good thing for the association and the people generally if they would secure Mr. Morlan to deliver an address on farming in Red Willow county. It is the men who go out on the farm and are successful that we want instruction from , and not those side walk store-box whittlers that are ever and eternally telling just how to farm , and never made a success of anything. A gentleman recently cured of dyspepsia gave the following appropriate rendering of Burns' famous blessing : "Some have meat and can not eat , and some have none that want it ; but we have meat and we can eat , Ivodol Dyspepsia Cure be thanked. " Tins Dreparation will digest what you eat. It con stantly relieves and radically cures indigestion and all stomach disorders. D. W. Loar. INDIANOLA. llarlow W. Keyes and E. S. Hill had bus- ness in the county's capital , Thursday after noon. Miss Eflie Teel is now book-keeper and cashier for the B. L. Paine clothing store of Lincoln. A number of McCookites the worse for DOOZC , some of them , indulged in a "scrap' among themselves in the evening after the ball game , Monday , and did nothing credit able to themselves or to their town during the proceedings. The Oberlin base-ball club received the shock of the season here , Monday afternoon , n its defeat by the Indianola club in a score of 13 to 12. The Oberlin rooters were offer- ng odds that they would be victorious , and hey haven't recovered yet. Adams , Bocock and Webster of McCook rendered valuable assistance to the local club. A moonlight picnic was held on the Hedges arm , just across the west river bridge , Satur day evening , in which a large company of roung folks participated. The Misses Mc- 3ool , Misses Flora Hoyt and May Neel were chief promoters of the delightful affair. Among those from McCook were : Misses Millie Slaby , Virgie Cassell , May Hileman , Virgie Ludwick and Nettie Dutton. Cuba is the greatest sugar-producing coun try. McCook Markets.

The Trick by Which lie Once Got a WOIIIUII'K 1'urnc. Jak * PIggott , the noted pickpocket , used to tell n fuuuy story about the dlfliculty ho had iu picking the pocket of a fashionably dreused womau who was looking In at the window of Shreve's Jewelry store. It Illustrates the hardship that the light fingered gentry are forced to endure In the pur suit of their profession and when first related was considered amusing not only by Plggott , but by the many to whom he conflded his experience. It was a cold winter evening , and the lady on whose purse Plggott had designs stood looking at the holiday Query so temptingly displayed. Plggott said that he tried all the arts known to his craft for the extraction of the wallet , but all in vain , until , as a last resort , he fished a toothpick from his pocket and , reaching around , tickled the lady's ear. Instinctively she raised her hand to brush away the Invading Insect or whatever It might be and ii * so doing let go of her pocketbook thalT she was carrying in the pocket of her coat. It was only an Instant , but It was long enough for the expert pickpocket to get In his work , and when she put her hand back her money was gone , and In the crowd around her she could not Identify the pale faced , fashiona bly dressed young man at her side as the person who had robbed her , and If she had accused him there would have been no proof against him , as the swag was at once passed to a pal who stood ready to receive It and run. Plggott was not even arrested for that crime , and the lady's ludicrous outcries furnished material for mirth long aft er. San Francisco Bulletin. LAYING UP A COMPETENCE. Something That Practically Any Man Can Do Through Self Denial. "There are some men of genius , " said Mr. Nlpplugly , "who accumulate great fortunes by great strokes , but by far the greater number of fortunes , including those of moderate dimen sions , and these form the great ma jority of all , are made by the very sim ple process of living within one's In come and investing the surplus with more or less wisdom , but always where It will be safe. "The older I grow the more amazed I am that more people don't lay up a competence for themselves , as most anybody can do , by beginning early In life to live within their income and sticking to that course faithfully. Did I do this myself ? No. Am I , how ever , having learned the wisdom of this course , now making a beginning ? I am obliged to say 'No. ' I am still spending all I get and laying by noth ing. ing."There "There are some lessons that we all easily acquire , but never turn to our own advantage. One of these Is of the benefits that arise from the exercise of self denial. We get from this at once the direct benefit of what we save , and self denial nourishes , strengthens and broadens the will and enables a man constantly to do and to earn more and more. "There's simply nothing like self de nial. It Is the key to every one of life's treasures , and everybody has one of those golden keys in his posses sion , eager to help him and waiting only for him to bring it in use. " New York Sun. An Amazed Woman. A woman who had an Arabic glass cup of the fourteenth century and did not know Its value took it to the Brit ish museum. After due consideration the expert , to her surprise , said that , though the museum did not want It , it might be worth $2,000. The woman shuddered , because she had been car rying in a crowded London omnibus a bit of glass worth so much money and It had miraculously escaped smashing. Finally , wanting money more than Arabian glass , she sent the object to an auctioneer's. Fancy her amazement when , starting at $2,500 , the Arabic cup went by leaps and bounds and was finally knocked down for the nice sum of $0,500. Actually the Arabic cup was worth very much less , but it so happened that there were two rivals at the auc tion , who bid against each other. China , Glass and Lamps. Age is not to be feared. The older a good and healthy person grows the greater becomes his capacity to enjoy the deeper , sweeter and more noble kinds of happiness which the world affords. Our sentiments , our thoughts , our words lose rectitude on entering cer tain minds , as sticks plunged Into the water look bent. After a woman has reached the age of 30 she wonders how many years will have passed before she Is 31. Chicago News. REDWILLOW. Red Willow school-house is undergoing re pairs. J. F. Helm has recently had another horse to die. Cause unknown. Wm. Byfield took two cars of cattle tc Omaha and sent two cars to Kansas City or Tuesday.

Mrs. James Woodworth , while in McCook the other daywas robbed of some very choice White Plymouth Rock chickens.
