LOOKED DEATH IN THE FACE
Mr. C. J. Brown, the gentle
man at St. Derion, who was so
badly Wounded with dynamite
last fall was in this city last Sat
urday and while hero made this
office a rail. Mr. Brown had
quite an experience at the time
and one which he does not care
to have repeated. After the fuse
was lighted and he was about t<>
throw tlie stick of dynamite in
to the river he found that Ids
whole body was paralyzed except
his neck and that he could not
only throw the stick but could
not even put it out of his hand,
and iu this condition his mind
was as active as it ever was. lie
realii.cu ids condition, and also
realized the fact that he was
standing on the boundry line
between this life, and the life
eternal, and iu this condition
commending his soul to the lov
ing care of the Master, and with
a thought of wife and children
lie turned ids head, closed Ids
eyes and awaited the explosion
which was sure to come. And it
came but instead of being blown
to pieces as he expected, he was
not mortally wounded, but after
all these months he is able to
get around, although minus an
arm, and with crippled limbs,
which will never more respond to
the call of an active, energetic
man.
It was a narrow escape from
death and Mr. Brown attributes
it alone to the overruling prov
idence of a loving God who chose
this manner to bring him, an
unruly child back to love and
serve Him. And may be it is,
for “God moves in a mysterious
way, His wonders to perform,”
not only is this case more myster
ious than when “He plants His]
footsteps in the sea and rides
upon the storm.” Whatever it
was Mr. Brown is now able to
get about, and as lie says, to live
a better life in the future than
in the past.—Shubert Citizen.
Does Advertising Pay
Occasionally there arises from
the prehistoric past some fossil
ized and ancient habit of mind
declaring that “advertising does
not pay.”
Should you meet anyone mak
ing such a statement ask him
these questions:
If advertising does not pay
how does a manufacturer, thous-'
ands of miles away make some- J
body go into the grocer’s or
druggist’s store in your block and
buy his goods?
if advertising does not pay,
how does a big mail-order house
reach out ami life business pract
ically from the next door niegli
bor of ibo county storekeeper?
If advertising docs not pay,
wily do the greatest department
stores in the world run page al
ter page, day in, day out, at enor
mous cost, ill lug newspapers,
and pay large sums to the men
who write and illustrate their
announcements?
If advertising does not pay,
why do you see small merchants
in every city in 1 lie. land starting
to use small space in the news
papers and then rapidly increase
the amount of space they use?
If advertising does not pay
why does anybody advertise ?
The question as to whether or
not advertising pays has long
been definitely settled. Adver
tising always pays if it is handl
ed the right, way.
The merchant who would get
the maximum results from liis
business must advertise. The dif
ficulty which confronts him is t<>
decide where to advertise, how
much to spend and how to get
the greatest good from liis ex
penditure.—Newspa perdom

OWEN BUCHANAN DEAD
With the booming of the sun
rise guns ushering in the dawn
of independence the spirit of
Owen Buchanan wended its flight
to join the ranks of his veteran
comrades beyond the river, lie
had been so many years a help
less invalid that lie was rcinem
bored only by bis family and the
few pioneer neighbors to whom
the news of bis death brought
pangs of sorrow.
After doing three yours of ac
tive service in III” battles for the
union in the civil war as a mem
ber of the (ith Missouri cavalry,
In came to Nebraska ami settled
on the farm adjoining his bro
ther-in-law, the late Alfred Page,
and it is sad to relate that in j
the death of Mr. Buchanan, the
last of the sturdy race of old
settlers who early inhabited the
country between the two Nem
alias, will have disappeared. Their
places will no doubt be filled by
ia generation of equally enter
[prising citizens, but never by a
set of truer hearted men and
women.
From wounds and disease con
tracted in bis country's service,
Mr. Buchanan was badly handi
capped in the after battle for an
honest living, and owing to bis
many infirmities it is not to bis
discredit that he did not bequeath
an estate to bis children worth
exciting the greed of avaricious
lawyers; but what i.s better and
more enduring, he leaves behind
him an unsullied reputation for
patriotism, honor, honesty and
loyal devotion to country, family
and friends.
Owen Buchanan was born in
Clay county, Missouri, in the
year 1840 and soon after com
ing to Nebraska was united in
marriage to Miss Sophia Chaffin,
who, with two daughters, survive
a loving husband and father.
