It Takes
Nerve
Everything depends upon
your nerves. It ii , nerve force
that causes the brain to direct
the motion of your body ; it ib
nerve force that cause * your
"
heart to pulsate , and send" the
blood through your veins ; it
is nerve force that causes your
stomach to digest food , your
kidneys to filter the blood , and
the liver to secrete bile.
In fact , nerve force is the
power that runs your body , so
if you feel worn-out , irritable ,
nervous. , cannot sleep , or eat
well , have pain or misery
anywhere , your nerves are
weak , anil your system run
down. To restore this vitality
take Dr. Miles' Nervine which
will strengthen and build up
the nerves. You cannot be
healthy without strong nerves.

nv i . i
Mrs. Uoflcy stood in the kitch
en of "Hush Hotel" and fried
eggs , and Mr. ( .lofTey .sitting at a
table near the window , peeled
potatoes.
Then Mrs. GofTey pulled a
clothcshor.se nearer the fire ; on it
was a neat tweed skirt , a jacket
of the same material , gaiters , a
siilor hat , and a pair of walking
shoes , a small size and well
made.
"Are the gent's things dry ? "
inquired Mr. GolTey meekly , as
lie slowly and carefully removed
the eyes from a potato.
Mrs. GofTey sniffed and repeat
ed the question satirically. "An
why wouldn't they be dry ? lie
got here d'reckly after dinner ,
didn't he ? An' he giv' me his
clo'es , didn't he ? An' I had 'cm
afore the lire all afternoon ,
hadn't I ? An' you seen me take
them to his door , didn't you ? "
emphasizing each question by her
vigorous actions round the fire
place.
Mr. GolTey slowly put the po
tatoes into a saucepan , and his
wife began collecting cups and
saucers on a tray.
"Then he don't know about
the young lady be in' here ? " Mr.
Goffey's curiosity was overmast
ering his discretion.
"No , he don't ; nor she don't
know he's here either ; and I'll
tell her when I lay on the table. "
With this , Mrs. GolTey took up
the tray and disappeared into the
next room , the boards creaking
as she went.
"Hope you're not feelin' as if
you'd got a chill , miss ? " she said
addressing a girl who sat in a
chair by the lire , and who was
wearing the aforementioned
silk dress.
She looked up from her book
and smiled. "No , I am feeling
petfectly well , thanks , and I'm
looking forward to mv supper. "
She wondered , with some alarm ,
if MrsGolTey meant to share the
meal with her , for two cups were
being placed on the table , two
plates , two knives , two forks.
"There's a gentleman stayin'
icre , " said Mrs. GolTey , suavely ,
'an' it'll be nice company for
on ; he seems a very genteel per-
on , "
"I should prefer supper by my-
elf , " said the girl coldly. In-
vardly she was furious. Was
he to suffer a prolonged tete-a-
ete with a stranger a comtner-
ial traveler , of course.
Mrs. GolTey looked at her in
ome surprise. "I'm sure he's
uite respectable. GolTey 'd
lever have let him in if he
vasn't. GolTey's ain't the place
vhcre blackguards come ! " this
vith a toss of her head.
'He's a real gent , I'm sure ; wears
a ring on his linger an' lots of
other joolery. "
The girl shuddered , though ,
lad she known it , the jewelry ,
vith the exception of the ring ,
vas purely a fiction of Mrs.
The girl frowned. "It is real-
y very annoying. I wish you
could make some other arrange-
nent. Is this the only sitting
room in the house. ? "
"Yes , it is , " replied Mrs.
GolTey , shortly , and flounced out ,
ippearing in a few moments
with the bacon and eggs , the tea ,
and some hot butter toast. Then
the girl heard her go along tht
larrow passage ( and knocking ai
the farther end , inform some OIK
: hat supper was ready in the din
ing room.
The man was half-way acres ;
the room before he saw her face
She looked up , for he gave a sud
den exclamation of surprise , am
then she Hushed scarlet , and rosi
in a nervous way , her book drop
ping unheeded to the ground
They looked at one another for ;
moment , and then she said in ;
low voice : "How dare you come ? '
But he did not answer , an <
Mrs. GofTey entered with a ju
of hot water.
"Now you two , " she said brisk
ly. "I hope you'll be good fren's
The gentleman can sit here an
serve the bacon an eggs , an' th
lady can pour out the tea , quite
domestic like , " and she chuck
led.
"If you want anythin' jest rap
on the table , an' I'll hear you.
I'm jest in the kitchen gittin'
GolTey's tea. ' She gave a surrep
titious wink , and then disappear
ed , looking particularly knowing.
"What's to bedone-Pen ? " The
man looked down at her. "Heav
en knows I am not to blame 1
What fate on earth could have
brought us together on this day
of all days- What the ( lev dick
ens are you doing here all by
yotir-self ? "
"On a walking tour. " she re
plied , shortlv. "I was to meet
the Caseys at the next town but
the rain was too awful for any
thing , and I stopped at this hate
ful place. If I had only known
you were here I'd have drowned
myself rather than stop ! "
lie rested his elbows on the
table and said quietly : "l y the
way , do you happen to know
what the date is , Pen ? "
Again she blushed , but answer
ed carelessly : "The eighth of
March. "
"You seem very clear about
it. " He still looked at her.
"Yes. " She certainly was
plucky enough. "It was to haye
been our wedding day on the
ninth , I believe.
"Ilow are you going to spend
itV Here ? "
' 'I think not. I shall go on
and meet the Caseys , no matter
what the weather is1. "
"Are you sure they will be
there ? "
"Almost. Pass the toast ,
> lease. "
"I shall get Goffey's horse or
vhatevcr he calls that miserable
trawberry quadruped outside ,
uid go straight on after tea and
ell Fred Casey to come for YOU. "
le felt that a row with Fred
! asey would do him all the good
n the world , and was furious
hat Pen should be stranded in
his way.
"You will do nothing of t he
find , thank you I can take care
of myself perfectly. "
"Apparently you can't. Might
trouble you for another cup of
ca , please ? "
"You are not to go , " she said.
"I am sorry to displease you ,
.nit I certainly will go. " .
He pushed his chair back from
the table , slowly filled his pipe
every action was so familiar , she
viiew so well how he crooked his
ittle linger as he pushed the to
bacco down into the bowl , how
ic would light it with a coal
from the fire and stand with his
eyes half closed enjoying the
first few whiffs. Then suddenly
ic was gone.
Then Mrs. GolTey came in to
clear the table , and presently she
was alone by the fire , her hands
tightly clasped on her knees ,
tears in her blue eyes.
Three months ago ! How long
it seemed , and how miserable she
had been since ! How her at
tempts at hospital nursing had
failed. How her attempts to be
come an intellectual woman and
a power had fallen through ! How
aimless she had been , and how
entirely certain that she was in
the wrong , that her petulant
temper was to blame , and that
she still loved Tom Geoffrey
with her heart ! She was just 21 ,
alone in the world , possessing
some money and entire freedom ,
and at present she loathed and
hated that freedom. A tear
dropped on the white apron , and
she gave a little shudder of dis
gust that she should be caught
looking such a fright. She
rapped on the floor for Mrs.
Goffey. "Bring me my own
things , please , " she said'if they
are dry ; I am afraid of spoiling
this handsome dress of yours. "
So a few minutes later she was
in her own things again , and
seated herself on the lloor in
front of the fire. At nine o'clock
Mrs. GofTey brought her in a
glass of milk and a slice of cake.
Pen sipped some of the milk
and surreptitiously poured the
rest out of the window , the cake
she hid under a glass shade. Hall
an hour later she heard the
horse's hoofs again , and then
Tom appeared. j
"Fred is driving over for you '
now , " he said. He looked approvingly - (
provingly at her change of cos
tume. She was so pretty and
her figure was so dainty.
"Pen , dear , was it a mistake ?
Was there any doubt in your
mind ? Can things be as they
were before ? I love you as much
as ever I did I think more ; and
Pen , to-morrow was to have been
our wedding day. " lie spoke
quickly , eagerly , there was a
queer uncertain tone in his voice
and he stood awkwardly before
her.
her."I
"I don't know. I'm miserable
and I'm lonely. " She turned from
him and leant her face against
the mantel-piece , but both her
tone and attitude were yielding.
Those two lonely hours had
done more for him than the most
eloquent pleading.
"Well , who can look after you
better than I ? " He came close
to her , his heart was beating ,
fast ; the defiant Pen was his own
again. "But dear , there must be
no mistakes , no misunderstand
ing this time. If you take me
now , it is for good and all , and
we will be married on our wedd
ing day. "
"Pray don't consult me about
any arrangements you arc mak-
"Pen , don't jest. It is for
good and all this time. Girl , I
can't see you turn to me.1' lie
laid a hand on her arm , and then
with a quick impulsive move
ment she swung round , turning
her face up to his.
"Ah , Tom" was all she said.
His arms were round her.
"Sweetheart , it is good to have
you in the dear old way. If you
only know what the time has
been like ! It was cruel of you.
it was cruel ! "
"And do you think I have been
so happy1 But her voice was
indistinct , for her face was buried
on his shoulder.
"Look here , Pen. " lie raised
her head tenderly , and she saw
liow grave he was. "Darling , it
is really true and certain this
time , for I could not stand such a
thing again. I love you so
that "
"Tom , " she interrupted , "if
we arc to be married to-morrow ,
I don't I don't think I'll have
much chanceof doing in again ,
will I ? "

Nebraska Wheat Going South.
Beatrice grain buyers have had
inquiries from Oklahoma and
Texas millers for wheat and were
at a loss to understand the reason
until today it developed that
buyers from these states are here
buying wheat , claimi'ig that
they are unable to buy wheat in
Kansas on account of so large a
per cent being damaged , making
it unfit for Hour.
Observes Ninetieth Birthday.
A number of friends and rela
tives were entertained at dinner
by Mrs Anne Bauer in honor of
the ninetieth birthday anniver
sary of her mother , Mrs , Carl
Xulek , who has been a resident
of this section for a half century ,
and is at present quite hale and
hearty in spite of the fact that
less than a year ago she suffered
a badly fractured hip by reason
of a fall while engaged in her
daily occupations. The affair
was a complete surprise to Grand
ma Xulek , as was also the com
ing of her daughter , Mrs. Mary
Buchholz of Lynch , Neb. , who
came to join in the festivities.
Mrs. Xulek is a native of Ger
many but has lived in this coun
try since early life , she and her
husband being among the first
homesteaders of this county.
Mr.Julek died about twelve
years ago. State Journal.
Doctors Could not Help Her.
"I had kidney trouble for years , "
writes Mrs. Raymond Conner of Shelton -
ton , Wash , "and the doctors could not
help me. I tried Foley's Kidney cure ,
und the very first dose save me relief
und I am now cured. I cannot say too
much for Foley's Kidney cure. " It
makes the utseascd kidneys sound so
they will eliminate the poisons from

HOME-MADE BEDSPREADS.
Suggestions for the Treatment ol
Different Beds and What Ma
terials to Use.
A \ery pretty one was recently
made from a linen sheet. A hem six
Inches wide was turned tip on thrco
sides of it , and hcm-stltchcd. A slml-
plo aeallop was then worked nil around
It on the douhle edge and cut out.
A design showing hunches of chrys
anthemums and leaves , Joined hy n
running design of ribbon , was made
exactly to nt the top of the bed
and a similar design was put acrosn
the upper end to go over the bolster
roll. The work was done In heavy ,
white mercerized cotton the ribbon
being darned In , and the llowcrs an'l
leaves heavily stuffed and worko'l in
satin stitch.
For a yellow and white room thP
spread was made of six yards of plain
yellow wash material , 30 Indies wide ,
costing eight cents a yard. This was
cut into six pieces , each one yard
square , and Joined together , tnree
pieces on each side , with insertion
about three inches wide. In the cen
ter of each bquare was warked a con
ventional llgnro.
For an old-fashioned four-post ma-
hognay bed a handsome India cotton
print was used. This came 12 leet
long and six wide. The ground , vas
white , with gay red and blue llgtires
of birds and flowers across the two
ends. 'Ihe pattern took the form of
si wide border. These two ends v/eie
cut off and sewed along the upper p\rt
of the two sides , the square openings
at the corners being left for the posts.
The whole bpicad was edged with
some old lace and insertion ripped
from discarded curtains.
Another spiei-1 was made from h ! = h
unbleached linen , which comes 90
Inches wide This spread was nnd * ;
three and one-half yards long so as
to allow of an extra piece to put over
the bolster ro'.l. The whole surficc
was worked in n Mount Melllsh de
sign , using th" heavier grades of knit
ting cotton ; the edges of this spread
were hemstitched , but could be scal
loped.
A FEW HEALTH HINTS.
Qrecu Vegetables Highly Becom-
mended and Hot Water a Great
Aid to Digestion.
Uroeu vegetables and salads will
counteract ii tendency to pimples ana
other sklu etnptlous. Sufferers Irom
eczema should eat upurlngly of trult ,
which , as a rule , contains too much
acid to be suitable tor them.
The best toilet preparation In the
world Is plain hot water. Drink a
glass of It every night If you want a
good digestion , clear complexion and
a good sleep.
If the hair Is In u , very weakened
state , as It Is after illness or fever ,
brushing , clipping and vigorous shampoos
pees are too severe treatment for i * .
Massage the scalp tor five minutes
every day , or for half an hour twice a
week , rubbing aery little vaseline
into the roots of th hair. Let the
hair hang loose and tree as often as
possible and dress It as simply as pos
sible , so that much Handling will not
bo necessary. Give It a rest. Its weak
condition demands that It bo left
alone Instead of bolng fussed over.
In spite of the dutgcr of the old-
fashioned punishment of a box on the
ears , It Is one which Is often inflicted
on troublesome children by their par
ents , without the smallest regard of
consequences. The parents are Ig
norant , not cruel , but they ought to
know that such a punishment Is n\o-
ly to cause lifelong Injury. Deafness
Is probably the moat trequent 111 re
sult or ear-boxing , but It may cause
Injury to the brain and Insanity.
Farmers' Review.
Stewed Veal with Barley.
Put a knuckle of veal In a saucepan
with a bit of butter the size of a w\l-
nnt , and fry the meat a nice brown all
over. Just cover the meat with quite
boiling water , put in a teacupful of
barley , two heads of celery , cleaned
and cut in Inch lengths , two carrots ,
two turnips , two large onions , a spug
of lemon thyme , marjoram and two
sage leaves. Let this simmer for * wc
hours ; put the meat on a hot dish ,
season the vegetables with pepper anc'
salt , pour over the meat , and servo
with u tablespoonful of finely chopped
parsley sprinkled over.
To Remove a Grease Spot.
Here Is a new way to remove a
grease spot , which answers excellent
ly : First place a double thickness of
blotting paper on nn Ironing board.
Lay the material on this and sponge
well with benzine. Now put two more
thicknesses of blotting paper on top
and iron with a moderately hot Iron.
Remember that benzlno is Inflamma
ble , so don't do this near a flre or
light , and see that your flatlron isn't at
scorching heat.
Present for a Baby's Basket.
You can make a very dainty little
present for the baby's basket by tak
ing ribbon an inch wide in pink or
blue , and sewing it In four long loops ,
leaving enough ribbon at one end to
form a rosette at the top. On each
loop place a crocheted silk ring , about
the size of a quarter , and attach to
these rings safety pins of various sizes.
This Is easily made , Inexpensive and
always a welcome gift.
Little Moire Coats.
Moire is newer than taffeta for the
little silk coat that is to be worn thu
spring. Faille , which always comes In
with moire , Is used for the same nur-
pose. The coats range all the way
from little postage stamp jackets to
be worn with corselet skirts through
the ordinary eton and the little sack
coat to all lengths and degree * of
oats with skirts.
