The Ladies' Auxiliary of the
cemetery association met with
Mrs Isham Reavis Tuesday
afternoon. No business of importance -
portance was transacted aside
from fixing the time of the open-
ing of the King soda fountain ,
which will be l'wlay 20th. trhese
openings under the charge of the
ladies have heretofore been quite
profitable to the association , and
we hop the one of May 20th will
be equally so. A great deal of
the credit for the beauty' the
cemetery is due to the unselfish
labor of the members of the asso-
ciation.
Have you missed Uncle Jesse
Crook lately ? The old gentle-
man is no longer able to , come
down town. For fifty years he
has been a familiar figure and
the streets seem lonely without
him. He is able to be about the
yard at his home , but the exer-
tion of coming clown town is too
great for him to make the at-
tempt. The entire community
hopes that his health will im-
prove and that his strength in a
measure will return.
Every great daily paper in the
state has written for seats in the
congressional convention for
their reporters. A great contest
is expected and the newspapers
will be represented in force to
write it up. It would be Quite
an advertisement if these papers
would speak well of Falls City af
a convention city. If everyone
will ; 10' his part , the newspaper
reports will be all right '
On Tuesday evening of this
week a number of the young
ladies of the Christian church
went to the home 01 Rev. Cron-
berKer on North Stone street
and gave him a pleasant sur-
prise. The evening was spent
is a very social way. Ice cream
and cake were served and all
present certainly enjoyed the
.
evet11ng.
Under the supervision of Geo.
Grinstead ten thousand straw-
berry plants have been planted
this week at the John Gilligan
fruit farm. This will make the
largest strawberry "patch" in

wty Suffer From Rhumati3m1
Why suffer from rheumatism
when one application of Cham-
berlain's Pain Balm will relieve
the pain ? Thequick relief which
this liniment affords makes rest
and sleep possible , and that alone
is worth many times its cost.
Many who have used it hoping
only for a short relief from suffer-
ing have been happily surprised
to find that after awhile the re-
lief became permanent 'Irs. V.

JUNE THE MARRIAGE MONTH
New York , Though , Almost an Exception -
ception to a Worldwide Rule
ns to Weddings.
June is the favorite month for
marriages the world over. Iu
Scotland , for instance , 175 of 1,000 ( ) ( )
marriages take place in June , and
in Sweden the proportion iB 150 ( ) .
In New York city the number of
marriages in a year is 40,000 and
the distribution by months is so
even that the lead of June is very
small. Last year J une led with 3,723
marriages , but there were 3,7)1) ( ) in
December , n. favorite month for
marriages , and U04 ( ; in November.
The month in which there are
the fewest in New York city is
March. May and August : are two
other months in whieh the number - .
bel' of marriages is small.
Though in most European coun-
tries June is the favorite month ,
there are some exceptions. Thus : ; ,
in Holland , May is the favorite
month for marriages , and in Italy
'ebruarJ' , which includes the
period preceding the beginning of
Lent.
In Germany , April , regal ded as
the first of the spring months , is
the favorite one for marriages
and ill Greece October is the
favorite In Russia , January is
the favorite marriage month.
It is in consequence of these
Old \\'orld preferences , no doubt ,
that the somewhat curious result
i8 shown here : June is the favorite
marriage month for those born
here , whether of American 01' for-
eign parentage , but it is not for
those foreign born.
Lastyeur , according to the board
of health figures , there were more
marriages in December than in
June of foreign born couples , and
more in January , too.
IT REVEALS NEW WORLDS.
Most Recent Scientific Discovery Is
the " "
"Ultrn-Microscope"-Grent
Aid to Science.
One of the most recent scien-
tific triumphs is tIle "ultra-micro-
scope. "
Two continental experimenters -
ers are credited with the inven-
tion , which consists in the application .
catio to the microscope of highly
concentrated artificial light by
the aid of powerful lenses and
pI'isms. The result is so greatly
to increase the magnifying power
that millions of particles hitherto -
to beyond the range of the microscope -
scope are rendered visible. The
ultra-microscope , too , has revealed -
vealed , among other things , new
and strange living creatures mov-
ing about in a drop of human
blood
By the old form of microscope
only inactive microscopic matter
could be photographed. Any activity -
tivitJ' , unless very slow , was lost
altogether. Even the very slow !
movements caused blurrings
Under the new miscroscope bac-
teria of all sizes
stand clearly revealed -
vealed , their slightest movements
being plainly visible. The effect ,
of course , will be to render immense -
mense assistance to science in exploring -
ploring the wonder world of mi-
eroscopio things.

Pompeian Massage Cream
is Essential
You do not wear fresh underwear -
wear for tithe looks of it , " but to
enjoy the sense of cleanliness.
Clean outer garments answer for
appearances.
Soap and water will take the
surface grime off the face , but Pom-
peian Cream alone will take the
hidden dirt from the pores-the
dirt that makes the complexion
sallow , muddy and oily.
Pompeian Massage Cream can-
not improve nature but it permits
nature to do its perfect work-
it makes the pores throw off the
dirt and impurities , and it gives a
sense of cleanliness unknown before
its use. Does ? not-cannot-pro-
