The most of them get enough with a one or two months visit. Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Wurdeman left last evening for Chicago to view the city sights mid visit old friends.

A gentleman boarded the Karori car at Kelburue avenue, ftecoguizing a friend on one of the scats, he nodded pleasantly and then said. "Well, what do you think of the weather?" "Oh. horrible!" was the reply. "And how is your wife today?" "She's just about the same, thank you!"-Xew Zealand Free Lance. SHELBY. From the Sun. It is rather nnunusual thing in Nebras ka to get two crops of strawberries in one season, but Bert Bull says that be is feasting on the tecond crop of straw berries from his patch this season. Claude and Earnest Beal passed through Shelby Monday evening with the remains of their father, James Beal. which they were taking to Osceola for burial, the funeral being held at the M. E. church in that place Tuesday. James Beal was one of the early settlers in this part of the country, having home steaded the quarter section a few miles northeast of Shelby, known as the Har mon farm and later being a resident of this place. About 2:3o o'clock Monday afternoon Mrs. John Swan, who lived with her husband in tho west part of David City saturated her clothing with kerosene and then set Are to the saturated cloth ing, for the purpose of ending ber life. Physicians were called who did what they could to ease the woman's suffer ings. She hud set fire to herself while in the bedroom, but upon her husband's entering the house she ran outdoors. He caught hold of her clothing and tore off some of the garments but she escap ed from him. He then got a blanket and wrappeil round her, but not until nearly all her clothing was burned off. Her shoes were all that were left intact. She was unconscious most of the after noon and until a few minutes before her death, which occurred at 8 o'clock in the evening. Tho body was shipped over the Burlington on Wednesday to Morn ing Sun, Iowa, for burial, whero live the relatives of the deceased. E. 8. Mitchell, who has been a faithful and painstaking railroad agent at this place since June f, 1888, has received a merriled position from the company. He has been given the station at Madi son, Neb., and will move to that place as soon as an agent comes to relieve him at this point. For over twenty-two years Mr. Mitchell has been at his post of tluty at this place, and generally speaking has grown gray in the service at Shelby. He states that his health has been remarkably good here and that be has not lost an hours time in the twenty-two years on account of sickness other than contagious disease. Whde the new point is the most desirable for him on the Union Parific system, he says it is with some feelings of regret that he has to leave the pleasant associations anil friends he has here. A farewell re ception was held in the U. B. church Wednesday evening and Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell were pnsented with tin easy chair as a token of the esteem and good will of their Shelby friends. MONROE. From the Itepnblican. Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Sacrider of David City arrived Thursday for s visit with relatives and friends in Monroe and vicinity. W. M. Talbitzer. who went to Alli ance the first of the week to have the cast removed from his injured knee, writes that the cast did not do what was desired, and that he is now on his way to Chicago, which very likely means an operation. Those behind the lecture course do not feel very good over the way they have been treated. After going to the expense of advertising and getting the hall ready for the first number, which was billed for Wednesday evening of this week, they received word that Mr. Mnrkley could not be here, and the lecture people asked leave to substitute. This the local people declined, and later cancelled the entire course, naturally thinking that this same thing might occur with any other number they have been promised. It is understood that they will try another lecture course bureau with the hope that they will get more satisfactory results. Mies Lydia Smith and Frank D. Camp bell were married Wednesday at the home of the groom's parents, Mr. and Mrs. M. Campbell, northeast of Monroe. I lev. J. llobert lleale of the Monroe Presbyterian church performing the ceremony.

For the present Mr. and Mrs. Campbell will reside at the home of the groom, but they will move on a place of their own in the spring. IT GROWS HAIR. Here Arc Facts We Want You to Prove at Our Risk. Marvelous as it may seem, Rexall "03" Hair Tonic has grown hair on heads that were once bald. Of course, in none of these cases were the hair roots dead, nor had the scalp taken on a glazed, shiny appearance. Rexall "93" Hair Tonic acts scien tifically, destroying the germs which are usually responsible for baldness. It penetrates to the roots of the hair, stim ulating and nourishing them. It is a most pleasant toilet necessity, is deli cately perfumed, and will not gum or permanently stain the hair. We want you to get a bottle of Rexall "93" Hair Tonic and use it as directed. If it does not relieve scalp irritation, remove dandruff, prevent the hair from falling out and promote an increased growth of hair, and in every way give entire satisfaction, simply come back and tell us, and without question or for mality we will hand back to yon every penny yon paid ns for it.

The Japanese have the art of dwarf ing trees to mere shrubs and of culti vating plants in n similar way. The people take great delight in their min iature gardens, which require a special gardener to keep them down to de sired limits. A Japanese garden is generally about ten yards square, and In this small space is found a park and demesne, with lake, summer bouses, temples, trees, all complete and in keeping with the dimensions available. One such garden shows a lake four feet long and full of goldfish. On the border stands a pine tree exactly eighteen inches high and fifty years old. Beneath its shade is a temple carved out of one piece of stone the size of a brick. On a lofty crag of some two and a half feet stands a fine maple tree, perfect in form and shape, fifteen years old and twelve inches high. One household in Japan boasts of a complete garden contained in a shal low two dozen wine case. Everything Is complete down to the fish in the lake, a sheet of water only a few Inch square, and the footbridges over the water courses. Tea houses there are and numerous trees of va rious kinds, each about six Inches in height Old as the hills are these diminutive trees, but fall of vitality, and. yet never growing bigger.

It remains for a real estate man to furnish additional evidence of the pro ductivity of Nebraska soil and of the numerous crops she will produce in one season. H. D Uatldox brought to our office today a bunch of strawberries that he bad just picked from his patch and which are the equal of the good ones sold last summer. lie wdl have quite a quantity of them. He also brought along a beet that will weigh above six pounds. It "beats" anything we have seen of that kind this season. Uncle Andy B.iird came limping into the Nonpareil office Saturday afternoon carrying a basket that made him groan. It contained eight ot the biggest sweet potatoes the agricultural editor has seen this season. In fact, one of them had grown so fast that its skin couldn't stand the pace and had broken open for half its length. When asked what made him limp Uncle Andy said he sprained his ankle while working in the corn field the day before, bnt we have a notion he did it while trying to pry one of those sweet potatoes out of the ground. Mr. Kaird raised seventy-five bushels of sweet potatoes on a half acre of gronnd this year, which at $2.(10 per bushel does not make a bad return for Nebraska land. SILVER CREEK. From tho Sand.

Nine thousand dollars is what Mrs. L. . Pope paid J. U. Kiddle for his 72 acre farm south of Silver Creek.

Today the Union Pacific makes possible this eighteen months' journey of courage and hardship in just three days, attended with every comfort and safety known to modern travel. The Union Pacific has been the primal factor in lay ing the foundation of progress and prosperity in the States through which its tracks are laid.
