From the Sand:
H. J. Brian is putting up hay on
the Thomas pasture west of town. He
came in Wednesday with a cook shack
and brought a good cook along. Sand
editor is so well satisfied with the deal
that he will spend a week camping out
with them.
At UncleW illiam Swortwood's home
in Polk county Sunday last, 31 people
gathered for an amiable time and din
ner. Seven sons of Mrs. Swortwood
were there, all well known here as
they were the Shank boys. Couldn't
be sure of their first names. The
seven are Harm, Frank, Dan, Edward,
Fred, Link and Ress. The sister of
the boys was unable to be there. It
was a very enjoyable gathering for
the family.
G rover Maurer has purchased of F.
C. Caul ton the lot at the corner of
Fourth and Oak streets, two blocks
of our new high school house and will
erect a house 30x40 thereon. It
will be a five room house, constructed
of cement block and will make a neat
residence. Work of excavating for the
cellar is now in progress and consider
able material is on theground.
Wednesday evening about seventy
five young folks gathered at the home
of Adam Buchta in Polk county in re
sponse to invitations by George and
Neola Buchta, and proceeded to make
merry with party games as only happy
and . healthy young folks can. Re
freshments were served, and at a late
hour the merry-makers left for their
homes declaring that a very pleasant
evening had been spent by all.
A little item in Sand last week
brought the editor a happy half day.
He discovreed that 44 years "ago he
and A. J. Parker of Central City com
menced their school days in the same
old log school house four miles east
of where Schuyler now is. Schuyler
wasn't there then. We picked gum
ofi the same rosin weeds and went
swimmin' in the same pond. Great
old days, those. Talked about it with
Parker Tuesday.
HUMPHREY.
NI
From the Democrat.
The following from the Fremont
Herald, has reference to the father of
Mrs John Schafer and Miss Antonette
Ilibhausen of this place: Frank Rib
hausen, a farmer living near Dodge
came near going over the dark river
Tuesday. He was driving home from
Dodge, when an accident happened to
the rig. The horses plunged forward
suddenly, breaking away from the
wagon, throwing Mr. Ribhausen to
the ground. He was caught at the
throat by one of the wagon wheels
and was pinioned to the ground in
that manner, lapsing into unconscious
ness. Another farmer happened along
in time to remove the wheel, and
bring the man to consciousness. Re
lets are that Mr. Ribhajusen will be
alright agan in a few days.
Miss Verna Margaret Leonard, a
former resident of Humphrey, but now
of Cuelebra, Panama, was an over

Academy at Columbus. Mr. Leonard,
who was section foreman on the U.
P. during their residence here, has a
responsible position with the govern
ment in Panama, while Miss Verna is
a bookkeeper and stenographer in the
office of the chief engneer of the Pan
ama cnaal. The lady will return to
Humphrey next week for a short visit
before returning to Panama.
Andrew Heimaier and Frank Mint
ken arrived in town the first of the
week from their home at Sidney, this
state, for a few days' visit with
friends and relatives in this comunity.
Mr. Heimaier is living in Sidney and
is engaged in the real estate business,
and is enjoying a rushing business.
Mr. Mintken is living on a farm near
Sidney which he purchased sometime
ago. The gentlemen report good
crops in their part of the state, hav
ing had plenty of rain all through the
season.
By an order of the board of super
vises of Platte county in session some
time ago, there will be two voting
precincts in Granville township here
after, in Humphrey and at Cornlea.
The dividing line is the middle of the
township running north and south. All
voters living on the west side of this
road will go to Cornlea to vote and all
those living on the east side of the
road will come to Humphrey to vote
as usual. Now voters, please bear
this change in voting places in mind,
and do not make the mistake of going
to the wrong voting place to vote, an
furthermore do not fail to go and vote
next Tuesday.
1 Mrs. F. J. Pratt and two sons,
Kenneth and Donald, went down to
Omaha Monday for a couple of weeks
visit with friends and relatives, and
were it not the sad experience editor
Buck of the Newman Grove Reporter
who said in his paper that there would
be one of the best looking grass wid
ow in town after a certain time when
FROM
his wife went east on a visit, and
then no sooner had his wife got out of
town, the editor went out and got
mashed up in a automobile wreck, we
would be tempted to say something in
regard to the looks of the Humphrey
editor grass widower. He always
were superstitious.

used in our home and we have been
convinced that they are a beneficial
kidney medicine. The party who took
Doan's Kdney Pills often complained
of pain in the back and had other dif
ficulties which plainly showed that the
kidneys were at fault. His condition
steadily grew worse and no relief was
found until Doan's Kidney Pills were
used. They went directly to the seat
of the trouble and so thoroughly dis

GETTING EXACT TIME.
A Vary Simpls Mattsr, According ts
This Man's Idea.
There Is nothing like having one
timepiece to correct the mistakes of
another. Those people who keep a
clock In every room of the house will
no doubt be glad to leant of the ex
pedient adopted by an old colored jani
tor in an office building in Chicago.
One day a man whose office was un
der this janitor's charge asked him if
he had the exact time. "Just a mo
ment, sir," he said and pulled out a
battered silver watch from a vest
pocket, looked at it, put it back and
then took a pencil out of another
pocket and jotted down something on
the back of an onvelojc.
Next he produced a second silver
watch from his trousers pocket, looked
at it and begun to figure out some
thing on the paper. By and by he
said:
"When you asked, sir, it were jest
twenty-seven minutes past 3 that's
exact"
"Much obliged," said the other, who
had been fingering bis watch nervous
ly. "But will you please tell me what
you were doing all that arithmetic
for?"
"Why. you see," said the old man,
"this watch that I carry iu my vest is
a mighty good watch, only it gains ten
minutes every day. And this one is a
mighty good oue, too, but it loses ten
minutes every day. So I Just look at
them both and then strike an average.
You'd be surprised, sir, to see what a
simple matter it is." Exchange.
THRASHING SERVANTS.
Demsstic Life In England In the Time
of Henry VIII.
In that remarkably minute chronicle
of domestic life iu England in the
time of Henry VIII., Tusser's "Five
Hundred Points of Good Husbandry,'
the learned and pious author seems
to take it for granted that the only
way of dealing with maidservants is
to thrash them unmercifully.
He tells us in his Inimitable doggerel
that "a maid must be forced to be
cleanly" or she is to be "made to cry
creak." Mistresses are advised "to go
about with a holly wand in their hand,
although they may not always have
occasion to use It, and to pay home
when they flght" that Is to say,
thrash "but not to be always chid
ing." As regards the laundry, the
domestic serfs are "warned to take
heed when they wash or run in the
lash and to wash well, wring well and
beat well, so that if any lack beat
ing it will be themselves."
As for the unhappy Cicely, the dairy
maid, she is to cry "creak" that is to
say, to be thrashed if her cheese Is
"hoven" or puffed up, and If the
cheese be tough Cicely Is to have "a
crash.' If the cheese be spotted
Cicely Is to be amended by the bayes,
and If It be too full of whey the
wretched dairymaid is to bare "a
dressing.'' Finally, If any maoots are
found In the cheese, "mistress Is to be
Cicely by and by."
More people, men and women, are
suffering with kidney and bladder
trouble than ever before, and each
and each year more of them turn for
quick relief and permanent benefit to
Foley's Kidney Remedy, which has
proven itself to be one of the most
effective remedies for kidney and blad
der ailments, that medical science has
devised. For sale by all druggists.

Underwood
Standard
Typewriter
A LEADER
The principal of construction in the Underwood was
found firpt in the Underwood, and every typewriter seeking
business in the same field with the Underwood which
has been put on the market since the advent of the Under
wood, has been an imitation of, and in general appearance
like, the Underwood.
The last "Blind" advocates of importance have now
fallen into line, and there is not to-day a single "blind
writing" typewriter actively on this market. Recall all
the arguments you have heard in past years by Underwood
opposition, and you will realize what an advance agent of
progress the Underwood has been; then bear in mind that
the Underwood was the first fully "visible," has had tim
to develope and improve, and is to-day the most perfect
typewriter made.

Telephone shopping has become a habit with millions
of women, because it is the most comfortable way, sav
ing time and trouble in making long trips down town.
The modern housewife demands a Bell telephone,
because it not only reaches her local shops but connects
her with every large city in the country.
Bell service is employed in all the details of every
day life, sometimes as a necessity, sometimes as a con
venience, but always as a time and trouble saver.
