We Arc with You
We agree with the News in all
it said in last week's issue in re
gard to hard driving of horses by
certain delivery boys in this city (
and think a halt should be called
even if compelled to make an ex
ample of some of them. We go
a step further , however , and say
the same dose should be adminis
tered t o drivers who overload
their horses. We have in our
mind a driver for oiie of our coal
firms who certainly goes the limit
when it coiner to overloading his
team. One day recently we saw
his ijoor horses fall three times in
their effort to pull a load of coal
over a crossing , the driver using
his lash in trying to make them
do what was almost impossible.
A few strokes from this same lash
would be too good for such an in
human act.
Called to Her Home Above.
It was indeed a shock and a
great sorrow to her friends in
Beaver City , when it was an
nounced , last Friday , that Allie
Shafer had broken "the tie that
binds" to things terrestrial and
her spirit had winged 1's ' way tc
the celestial realm. The sad
ness of her death is enhanced by
the fact that she was in the
prime of young womanhood and
was the joy of her family , and
the general favorite of a large
acquaintance.
Allie L. Shafer , daughter ol
Mr. and Mrs. WII. . Shafer , was
born in Falls City , NebMarcl :
20 , 1870. Later the famil ) '
moved to Furnas county , am
throe years ago to Beaver City
On last Friday Allie died fron
typhoid fever and left the home
full of sadness for the loss of .1
faithful sister and loving daugh
ter. From childhood her lif <
was marked with the spiri
of self sacrifice for the sake t (
others. Shs was a real helper t (
parents , and vounger brother am
sisters.
Faithful in the home the satin
spirit has characterised her worl
at the Mercantile store where
for a number of months she ha
been clerking.
About ten years ago she unit
cd with the chnrch , In he
relation to the church fidelit ;
has marked her every da ;
life even until the end. He
family and friends have in thei
sorrow a real consolation in tli
hope that she is now safe will
her Lord.
Two brothers and two sister
passed away in infancy. Fou
sisters and two brothers remai
to share with father and mothe
the loneliness over the departur
of the deceased. A large circl
of friends and relatives , attende
the funeral at the Christia
church , on Tuesday at 2 p. n
In the absence of her pastor , Ke\
J. G.Russel preached thesermoi
The Royal Neighbors. c
which she was an honored men
ber , attended the services in
bed ) ' and six from their numbc
acted as pall bearers.
The floral offerings were man
and beautiful.
The remains were laid to rei
in the Beaver City cemetery.
To the family we wish to e :
press our real sympathy in tl
hour of their severe affliction.

Often overlooked
The public schools too often overlook the
practical side of the boy's or the girl's educa
tion. It therefore becomes our pleasant duty
to assist the boys and girls in getting a knowl
edge of those things which must shortly con
cern their financial welfare. Our great effort
is to encourage them to save money. Send
them to us and we will do our utmost to get
them started right. - : - - : - - : - - : -

"Oh , you sec , my wife Is studying

BABY NEEDS "LETTING ALONE. "
Most of Iho earlier months of nn
infant's life should he spent in sleep ,
mid for Ilio first six months of its
life it should lie kept very quiet.
Too much talking to and fussing
a tiny infant is very bad , and
though 11 child of a year or so old
Unit has heun made much of inny
appear unusually hright and intelli
gent , it is not good for the little
brain to be ovor-oxoited and develop
ed , and a reaction may come sooner
or later , and the brilliant baby turn
out the dunce of the elass.
Many great men were to all ap
pearances "stupid" children , their
brains developing more slowly and
maturing at a later date than those
of their more averagely endowed
brothers and sisters. Chicago Jour

WOMAN AND HER WATCH.
Watchmakers say it's amazing
women have timepieces that go at
all , in view of the fact that about
live women in a hundred wind theii
watches at the proper time. The
average woman looks on the winding
of a watch either as a ceremony tc
be performed only on gala days 01
as a pastime that will do well
enough as a stop-gap for idle nw
mrnts , but must not be permittee :
to interfere with the serious things
of life. The explanation probabh
is that she doesn't wear it every day
A man looks on his watch as a con
stunt companion , and if he is for
tunnte enough to posses a good one
also as a faithful servant.
PAJAMAS UNKNOWN.
A Philadelphia man who has beei
traveling in the west says that pa
jamas are not popular articles o
wearing apparel out there , and cite
an incident to prove his statement
While staying at a hotel in a me
dium-sixed town he sent a pair o
rather gray colored pajamas ( hi
wife's choice ) to a laundry. Whci
they came back they were starchei
> o stiff they would stand alone , am
each trousers leg was carefull
pressed into the most approve' '
crease. Attached to the coat wa
pinned a small slip of paper bearin
the words : ' 'To one lawn tennis sui
fiftv cents. "
APPROPRIATELY NAMED.
The boy in the paint store dashc
hurriedly up the cellar steps an
r. sought th ° proprietor.
r.it ' 'There's a barrel leaking in tl
basement ! " he cried , "and the auti
ie
it mobile shift is just pouring out. "
al "Why do you call it automobi
stutt ? " asked the proprietor ,

at sight. " Judge.

The Universal Grouch.
If every clny were sunny , you'd
always yell for rnin , if mud were
only money , of wealth you'd soon
complain. If girls were always
beauties , you'd hunt an nuly
dome ; if joys were ever duties' ,
delight would be n shame. If
motor cars were Riven , and not
put out for sale , you'd think it
would be heaven to ride upon
rail. If dog days came at New
Years , and blizzards came in June ,
this world would have BO few tears
that life would be n tune. We
may bo cranks and fogies , and yet
we ever wish , that eabbnges were
stogies , and folderols were fish.
We all may bo demented , because
we find no bliss ; but who could
be contented in such n world as
this ? Walt Mason.
