Dollar
Decoys
Did you know that there was
a relationship between dollars
Well it must be true anyway
Did you ever notice that once
a man gets a few dollars others
seem to fly into his pocket as
if by magic 3Iost of the dol
lars of the United States are
gathered together in large
amounts The more dollars a
man gets the faster others join
them You may be unable to
account for this but it is true
nevertheless Dollars like to
congregate Why not start a
congregation of your own
Lets explain You make quite
a bit of money dont you You
spend it dont you Well now
just for once try putting a few
dollars just a few in this
bank See if others dont fol
low The first few act as a
decoy You are cordially in
vited to place your decoys
In this bank We are sure that
by using one of our bank books
for blind you will be able
to bag considerable

Beaver City is fortunate in having
so broad and intelligent and patriotic
and earnest a man as J D Phillips
as its secretary of the Furnas Coun
ty Agricultural society
Notwithstanding both parties had
favorable planks in their state plat
forms the initiative referendum and
the recall is not escaping the bitter
proposition of the politicians and the
system
If those who voted for John Cordeal
at the recent election dont think he
is making good they simply have to
read the legislative proceedings and
they will become convinced that
John is there with both feet and
all his mental faculties We predict
that he will be termed the little giant
of the senate before the session is
over Culbertson Banner
The final move has been taken in
the deposit guaranty cases the Unit
ed States supreme court has refused
the motion for a rehearing of the
Oklahoma case As the Kansas and
Nebraska cases were identical prac
tically this carries with it these
two cases as well Nebraskas state
banks will likely begin at once to
comply with our state law on this
point

Q
FREEZE AND BURN
These Two Words Had a Common
Parent In One Aryan Root
We are likely to consider freeze
and burn ai two distinctly opposite
effects but if ft a simple experiment
you will touch your tongue to a bit
of heated iron and to a bit of iron
that Is extremely cold the effects as
shown in the blisters produced and
in the sensation of the contacts will
be found to be surprisingly alike
It is doubtful if our Aryan ancestors
when they were planting the send of
the English and its sister languages
thought of the scientific relations of
what we call heat and cold but they
gave to us the root prus which they
got out of the sensations produced by
burning and freezing As usual Aryan
roots beginning with the p sound
change it to f on the tongues of
the Teuton so with these our more
modern ancestors prus became
frus and from it came our freeze
and frost Again as is usual our
Hindu brother in his Sanskrit usually
preserves the Aryan p sound so he
has from this root prush meaning
to burn
This root of freeze became freosan
in Anglo Saxon which is our frozen
In Icelandic it became frjosa in
Swedish frysa and in Danish
fryse In the Latin the original p1
sound is retained in pruina mean
ing hoarfrost and in pruna signify
ing a burning coal Here we see unit
ed two apparently opposite meanings
growing out of the old root prus
New York Herald
Self Reliance
The spirit of self help is the root of
all genuine growth in the individual
and exhibited in the lives of many it
constitutes the true source of national
visor intl strength Help from with
out is orten enfeebling in its effects
but help from within invariably invig
orates Whatever is done for men or
classes to a certain extent takes away
the stimulus and necessity of doing for
themselves and where men are sub
jected to overguidance and overgovern
ment the inevitable tendency is to ren
der them comparatively helpless Sam

A Field at Home
A Boston gentleman was showing a
West African who is interested in
missionary work a number of photo

What is this asked the visitor
gazing in wonder at one of them
Oh thats a snapshot taken during

But has your church no mission
aries to send among these people

Steel but it lasts three -or four times as long
MALLEABLE IRON isnt as smooth looking as cast iron
but its a great many times stronger In fact you cant break
Malleable Iron Thats why the MAJESTIC RANGE can be
