The first of the week John Nagengast
got ia a ear of ahoets from Holt county
that he will sell to our farmers. The corn
crop is short in that section and many
oars of hogs are being shipped toother
parts of the state where feed is plenti

was held from St. John's church last
Saturday Burning, services being con
ducted by Bev. Zak. There were a
large number out to pay their last re

Hog cholera or a disease equally as
destructive to swine is making sad havoc
ins number of herds in the ooaatry
southwest of town, aad ass result many
farmers will be rushing their hogs to
market. Neil Davis, A. F. Lane, Frank
Tilmaa and several of their' neighbors
report the loss of a considerable number.
For some years this section of the country
has been comparatively free from the
ravages of cholera, and its appearance
at this time has a depressing effect upon
the owners of large herds. The pros
petit of losing $5 bogs is not very en
couraging. It is to be hoped that every
precaution will be taken to prevent the
spread of the dread disssse. The car
casses of all animals dying with it should
be burned and the yards where they
were kept plowed sad well sprinkled
with Km. It is always well to remem
ber that an ounce of prevention is worth
a pound of cure.

A hurried glance uader the closely
drawn shade convinced Mrs. Owen
that this time, at least. It waa a
neighbor who stood on her doorstep,
and not that silky person with some
thing to sell. x
"Come right In. Mrs. Smythe." said
Mrs. Owen, hospitably.
'"The shades wereNdrawa aad I
was afraid you were away fromhoaie,w
said her visitor, maklsg herself coat
fortable.
"No, I put them down so I can
peek out when the bell rings. If It's
a promoter or canvasser. I doa't open
the door. They always persuade ass
to buy agaiast mj owa Judgment I
caa't trust myself, so doa't take aay
chances.'
"Bat 'if you doa't need the ar
ticle" N
"But I caa't get rid of them. They
either make me think that I caa't do
without what they are selling, or they
work on my sympathies. The house is
full of hair restorer aad breakfast
foods, to say aothlag of court plantar,
shoe strlags aad brooms." V
"But a womaa of your Intelligence
would oaly buy what was, worth the
money."
Mrs. Owea looked pleased.
"I wish I was as good a bargala
hunter as you, Mrs. Smythe." N '
"When you are my age. my dear,
you will be a wonder. I Just ran in
to tell you of the bargala I got yes
terday. It'a a real snap. I sab
scribed for some beautiful books 12
volumes at three dollars a month,
printed on hand-made paper and the
loveliest bindings'
"We don't need any books. I don't
get time to read. With housework aad
the children's clothes-
"That's Just It, Mrsbwen; you are
a slave to duty. I believe in keeping
pace with my husband's brains. I
don't intend to forfeit his love by let
ting my Intellect get rusty. Some
women don't care. They think their
husa)nds caa't escape, aad so they
neglect this great duty."
Mrs. Owen smiled pleasantly. She
felt no anxiety on that score.
"I read la one of my new books
about the belfry In Brugges. and last
night when Mr. Smythe looked bored
and restless I just opened a conver
sation and steered it to the subject on
which I had been studying. He hail
lots of Interesting things to say. and
seemed so pleased to find me so well
informed. Now, If I hadn't those
books I might have been stupid, aad
he'd have gone to,, the club instead
of having such a nice evening at
home. A womaa should not be a slave
to household duties. No wonder men
tire of their wives
But Mr. Owen' never tires of me."
"That's Just It He win. Ton
won't know it at first. It creeps like
a little serpent-'
"My goodness! yoa doa't mesa to
say
"Tea. I do. Ualess you keep posted
on what's doing In the world, as a
man does, It Is bound to come. I
read about a man who loved his wife
for ten years and as, she became oc
cupied with her household affairs he
begaa going to the theaters aad he
met another womaa.'
"Oh, Mrs. Smythe, you frighten me!
What If my husband should hs led
astray that way?"
"I doa't waat to make you uneasy
but if you woa't do anything to
prevent well, there's no telling."
"What can I do? Please advise me.
It would kill me to lose him! We
are all the world to each other.
"Tea, aow, while you are young,
and nretty. But some time he will
'tire of you and your petty troubles,
rising to go.
"O, Mrs. Smythe, don't go yet. Ton
have not told me what to do. Doa't
leave me with this awful tragedy star
ing me la the face."
"People seldom take advice that's
for their good.".
"Ill take anything; that yo aay."
"If you would read
"111 study- aight aad day."
"It's only accessary to keep a little
ahead of your husband and turn the
