Did you over ■ lop to consider the
• all amount of expense incurred in
. isltlng the moving picture show and
(he big i ^rd(s you get for your
money. Many a man who spends hie
last tiieki 1 for fire-water could have
a great deni more fun going to the
mining picture how, for it cheers
without inebriating. Whim you take
other pleasure: there are always lit
tie side excursions that cost extra
money. For example: when you go
to tlie racen, you are almost sure to
place your money on the wrong horse;
when you go to the theater,you must
change your collar and polish youi
shoes; and when you go to church
you must assume an attitude and a
look of piety that ill becomes a black
sheep without the fold. But when
you go to the moving picture show,
you can sit 'way back in the corner in
the semi-darkness where the mai
hack of you can't see the diit on you
neck, and where, if you are real
careful you can cat peanuts and I lien
throw the shells on the floor.
And just think of the educational
advantages. Fifty years ago the only
idea we had of I’aris, Berlin and
London, were the somewhat hazy and
indefinite ideas we gleaned from the
old McGuffey geography with its
bum and antiquated woodcuts that
looked like anything but what they
were supposed to represent. Now,
you spend ten cents at the moving
picture theater and see Paris in all
her glory, Berlin and her wide,
tree lined streets, London with her
double-deck tram-cars and her inimit
able fog. If you like stirring scenes
you can see anything from a Georgia
lynching bee to an express train hold
up in California, so realistic that you
can almost hear the cries and liooi
ings of the angry mob or tile crack
of the pistol shot.
But best of all. you can go home
with the satisfaction that you turn

Frank Vertiska came near making
a new record at Pawnee City last
week when he sold a load of pure
bred Duroc Jersey hoga on the mar
ket for the neat little sum of $220.8<>.
There were eight animals in the load,
and he received eight cents a pound
for them. The spring gilts weighed
over 300 pounds each, and the fall
gilts just 400* pounds. This is an
other demonstration that it pays to
raise blooded stock.
