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.

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. Two sizes,
50c and $1.00. Sold only at our store

Tiny Lakes, Trees and Houses In Di

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

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.

L. . Pope paid J. U. Kiddle for his 72
acre farm south of Silver Creek. This is
at the rate of $125.00 per acre and shows
that Merrick county land is in demand
in high prices.
Mrs. Dr. W. C. Robinson is at the
Presbyterian hospital in Omaha whero
she underwent an operation yesterday.
Dr. Robinson came home Thursday say
ing that while the operation was a severe

the result.

The Empire
of the West
It took Lewis and Clark just one year and six months
to go from the Missouri River to the Pacific Ocean.
Not quite fifty years ago the Union Pacific Railroad
was launched and began its triumphant march of progress
across the continent.
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.
The railroad has been, and is today, the basic busi
ness of our day and generation, on which all other enter
prises and interests must rest and through which they
are given movement, activity, energy and life.
In the matter of industrial development the interests
of the public and the Union Pacific are identical.
If the Union Pacific is not prosperous,
will the great and growing country it serves
continue to prosper?
Think it over.
