Farmers Resist Fence Moving. Merrick County. A long line of broken down posts and severed strands of barb wire tell of the fierce resistance which is being made by the land owners along the Union Pa cific against the company's attempt to set its fences over 200 feet on either side of its track on the gov ernment sections , where it claims Its 400 feet of right-of-way. Two or three weeks ago the fences on the Blevins farm were cut and now on the Minter farm not only have the wires been cut , but the posts have been also cut down in places , so that there is scarcely a bit of the , fence standing which was recently , put up. The matter will be tried cut- in the courts. Bank Officers Indicted. Cass County. The federal grand jury returned indictments against A. D.

Several bills will be introduced ai the coming session of the legislature providing for amended road'laws. The democratic state platform calls foi good road legislation under the joinl effort of the county and the state This wjll stimulate such measures from democratic members , with prom ise of support from republicans if the measures are satisfactory. Parallel with measures looking * toward state aid in road building , will be others to amend the road laws now on the statute books relating to road dis tricts. Bills are now in the process of drafting providing for a county road overseer or supervisor , similar to the plan by which there is now a county assessor. Provision will be made either that he shall name the local road supervisors or at least shall have control of their work. It is very likely also that the measure will pro vide that the supervision of culvert and bridge building shall be taken ou ! of the hands of the county commis sioners and placed under the county supervisor of roads. New Depository Bonds. Attorney General-elect Grant Mar tin is putting In his spare time ex amining bonds presented by state de pository banks.

Policy Holders Liable. Four hundred and fifty Nebraskans und Nebraska firms were held liable for the debts of the Nebraska Mer cantile Mutual Insurance company by Judge Frost Saturday afternoon in a decision in the case of John A. Ran dall , receiver , against William H. Mc- Clain and others. All of the defen- Jants were policy holders in the insolent - ent company at the time when ap plication was made to the court foi the appointment of a receiver. S. R. McKelvie , editor of the Nebras ka Farmer , E. M. Martin , editor of the Beatrice Sun , and Will A , Campbell of the publicity department of the Om aha Commercial club are pressing their claims for an appropriation of $25,000 to be used In advertising the state. In speaking of the propaganda Mr. McKelvie said that the publicity board would bo under control of the state board of agriculture if the ap propriation is made and that he had Borne confidence of its passage be cause of the support that has come to the idea. He says that 180 Nebraska papers are pledged to support the measure , that the state board of agri culture is friendly to the idea anl that he believes Governor-elect Aldrich is Hot unfriendly. The state conference of charities and correction will be held in Lincoln January 15 , 16 , 17. The membership of this conference includes state , city and county officers concerned with the handling of the dependent , defective and delinquent classes , officers of loca1 charitable organizations and all who are interested in improving the meth ods of caring for the unfortunate and all those who seek to remedy the conditions which produce poverty and crime. Warden Tom Smith of the state pen itentiary is In favor of a law provid ing for an official who shall look after paroled convicts. There are now about ninety prisoners out on parole and there is no one to look after them The governor gets monthly reports from them , but these reports are inac curate and unsatisfactory. Smith thinks that the state could afford to pay a man to check the parolel men up occasionally and look after them while out of prison. ' State Superintendent Bishop is is suing a bulletin to young men and women intending to fit themselves for teachers. It sets out In extended form much valuable information tc the persons interested , showing them plainly how the various grades of certificates are to be obtained and what credits are required for them. The annual meeting of the Nebras ka state bee keepers' association will be held at the state farm , on Wednes day and Thursday , January 18 and 19 This is 'one of the oldest of the soci eties comprising the federation of or ganized agriculture and its meetings are always full of interest to friends of the honey bee.

The formation of a Nebraska coun ty treasurers' association will be the purpose of a meeting of county treas urers to be held in Lincoln , January 18 and 19. Seventy-five or more treas urers and deputies are expected to at tend the initial session of the associa tion. Letters from over the state in dicate that the money-caretakers are much interested in the move MOTHERS OF THEN AND NOW Conditions Are Only Different , No Matter What Sentimental Writers May Assert. The "popular" writer who bewails what he assumes to be the fact that the "old-fashioned" mother is no more is liable to defeat his own purpose if that be inculcating in children the highest possible regard for their pa ; rents. It is a danger which even the quantitative theory of literature or space rates cannot justify. The mother of the past , of course , was different from the mother of the present , as different on the whole as the conditions of life then and now , but since her daughter is the mother of the present there must be some points of similarity. All the good in onr mothers and grandmothers cer tainly could not have vanished. It will be paying scant tribute to those dear , good women who have laid down , their recepts and examples and pass ed on to say so. And , of course , this writer does not mean to do that , yet he comes very near doing what he does not intend. The fallacy of the whole sentimen tal notion that because things and people are not like they used to be they are not as good lies in the pat ent fact that they cannot be alike , and If they were it would simply be be cause of the present generation being so much Inferior to the past that It was unable to do no more than stand still. SKIN TORTURED BABIES SLEEP AND MOTHERS REST A warm bath with Cuticura Soap , followed by a gentle anointing with Outicura ointment , is generally suffi cient to afford immediate comfort In the most distressing forms of itching , burning and scaly eczemas , rashes , Ir ritations and inflammations of In fants and children , permit sleep for child and rest for parent , and point to permanent relief , when other methods fail. Peace falls upon distracted households when these pure , sweet and gentle emollients enter. No other treatment costs so little and does so much for skin sufferers , from Infancy to age.

TIRED , SICK AND DISCOURAGED Doan's Kidney Pills Brought Health and Cheerfulness. Mrs. J. P. Pemberton , 854 So. La fayette St , Marshall , Mo. , says : "For years I suffered from Bright's disease wnica uio aooiors saia was incurable. I grad ually grew weaker un til I had to take to my bed. The kidney secre tions were suppressed , I became terribly bloated - * ed , and finally reached the point where I took no interest In life. It was at this time I began taking Doan's Kidney Pills and soon Improved. When I had used 12 boxes I was without a sign of the trouble which f eemed to be carrying me to my grave. " Remember the name Doan's. For sale by all dealers. 50 cents a box. Foster-Milburn Co. , Buffalo , N. Y. The Inevitable. "You don't resent that successful candidate's proud and haughty man ner ? " "Nope , " rejoined Farmer Corntossel. "The fact that he's in politics Is all the guarantee I want that sooner or later he'll meet with some kind of a terrible finish. " Doesn't Seem Natural.

NOT AS BAD AS IT SOUNDED Wonderful Highland Dialect Respon sible for Wrong Impression Given Divine. Andrew Carnegie , at a dinner in New York , talked about the Scotch dialect. "It's a hard lingo to understand , " he said. "It often causes awkward mis takes. "Once an American divine spent Christmas in a Highland Inn. On Christmas morning he gave the maid a tip of a sovereign , and he said , look ing earnestly at her for she was a pretty maid " 'Do you know , Kathleen , your are a very good-looking lassie ? ' "Of course Kathleen was pleased , but , being modest , she blushed like a rose and answered : " 'Ah , na ; Ah na ! But my kissin , sir , Is beautiful ! ' "The divine frowned. " 'Leave the room , you wicked young baggage ! " he said sternly. "He didn't know , you see , that mod est Kathleen had been simply praising in her Highland dialect , the superior charms of her cousin Janet of Pee bles. " Children's Food. Certain little suggestions are always to be followed when planning the diet of the little ones. To keep healthy little stomachs in the nursery never serve hot stewed fruit to the.children. Plenty of stewed fruit and baked ap ples they should eat , but they must invariably be.cooked the day before and dished up cold. The nursery po tatoes should always be baked or boiled in their jackets. Stewed and fried potatoes or potatoes boiled with out their skins supply starch , with a loss of all the wholesome potash salts that the skin gives out during the process of cooking into the white part of the vegetable. A Prime Cause of III Health. A famous physician on being asked recently what is the chief cause of ill health , replied : "Thinking and talk ing about it all the time. This sense less introspection in which so many of the rising generation of the nerv ous folk indulge is certainly wearing them out. When they are not worry ing as to whether they sleep too much or too little , they are fidgeting over the amount of food they take or the quantity of exercise necessary Jfor health. In short they never give themselves a moment's peace. " There's the Rub. "Well , " said the optimistic boarder , "there's one thing about our boarding house ; you can eat as much as you like there. " "Of course ; same as ours , " replied the pessimistic one , "you can eat as much as you like , but there's never anything you could possibly like. " A Surprise. "I'm going to- give my wife a real surprise this Christmas. " That so ? What are you going to give her ? " "The money.

These secrets are not secrets of guilt or shame , but the secrets of suffering , and they have been confided to Dr. R. V. Pierce in the hope and expectation of adyice and help. That few of these women have been disappointed in their ex pectations is proved by the fact that ninety-eight per cent , of all women treated by Dr. Pierce have been absolutely and altogether cured. Such a record would be remarkable if the cases treated were numbered by hundreds only. But when that record applies to the treatment of more than half-a- mil lion women , in a practice of over 40 years , it is phenomenal , and entitles Dr. Pierce to the gratitude accorded him by women , as the fint d specialists in the treatment of women's diseases. Every sick woman may consult Dr. Pierce by letter , absolutely withoi * charge. All replies are mailed , sealed in perfectly plain envelopes , without ny printing or advertising whatever , upon them.
