Brown To those who have never had the time or Inclination to visit the State Historical Society, there re mains an Interesting experience. To gase at the buckskin dress worn by the daughter of the Indian Chief, Sitting Bull, arouses In the breast of the most unromantic soul, a feeling that verges on reverence. It "brings to your heart the thrill of romance and to your mind visions of what must have been the most glorious age in America. Visions of an Indian maid, free un der the open skies of the Nebraska plains, breathing of tbe pure air, taking exercise of a variety that produced symetry that a Goddess would covet. A free life in a free laud that convention has perhaps made us unable to fully appreciate. And while we are yet dreaming thusly, the distant tingle of sweet music catches our ear, as of a harp played in another room. In the days when the song of the birds and the brooks were the only source of spiritual food for the artistic souls that craved music, Mr. D. E. Thompson, prompted by brotherly love, ex pended what then must have seemed a small fortune and brought to tbelr isolated home on the plains a Swiss music box. That was in 1S84 and the cost was approxi mately 11,000.00. Tbe mysteries of a music box will forever fascinate man. In its echoes, Miss Thompson was wooed and won by tbe famous millionaire tramp, of whom your grandfather can undoubtedly tell an interesting story. Married now, Mrs. Brown lives in Denver, Colorado. But the music box Is a Nebraska pioneer and It is destined to spend the remainder of its life here, having been donated to the State Historical society, houfsed In the basement of the li brary building.

It is sufficient, however, to strengthen him u his fight against the temptation of a wayside fruit store, hamburger shop or any other Institution offer ing edibles. That, according to Herbert D. Gisb, director of athletics, Is one of the purposes of giving the team egg malted milks. In addition to the fact that the player, does not lose his appetite the drink is valuable in replacing the large amount of food enrgy loft during practices. The plan If giving this food to the squad is now in lis third suc .f,,i von, it Is nractlcally the ,only method of keeping. the football man's stomach in tne Desi conai tion, and that Is important, says Mr. Gish.

His appointment was announced yesterday by Pres. Jones of that organization. This committee is made up ef the representatives of the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy the American Pharmaceutical As sociation .of Colleges of Pharmacy.
