Oliver, owner and publisher of the Weeping Water Herald, perpetrated an April fool Joke on the Casa county com missioners by publishing an article In his paper upon that date In which he quoted a "prominent riattsmouth attorney" as hav ing said that the funds of the county were being wasted in an extravagant manner, and that one of the commissioners was a partner of the bridge contractor who does the bridge work for the rounty, and shared In the profits. The commissioners failed to appreciate the joke, and as they are very desirous of learning who the "promi nent Plattsmouth attorney" Is, and to re turn the compliment, have adopted a reso lution Instructing the county clerk to notify the said George H. Oliver to appear before the board upon April 8. and show cause why he published the article reflect ing upon their integrity. Can Wllllna- to Par Half. PLATTSMOUTH. Neb.. April 3. (Special.)

I re Addres. the C'ltlsen of Beatrice oa the fabjrrt. BEATRICE. Neb.. April S. (Special Tel egram.) J. H. Mcintosh and W. O. Vre of Omaha addressed fair-sized audience at the Faddock opera house tonight on the question of municipal taxation as It re lates to railroads. The meeting was under the auspices of the Beatrice Commercial club. Mr. t're was the first speaker. He believed the burdens of taxation ought to bo more equally distributed. Whoever shirks his share of taxation is In that re spect not a good citizen. He thought the railroads were in the lead as tax-shirkers. He furnished some statistics to prove hia assertion was true. J. H. Mcintosh in his talk said that a system was wanted by which the railroads could be made to pay their share of city and town taxes. He said the bill now before the legislature provides for assessment by the local assessor. The unit system, the speaker stated, was a scheme of the rail roads for dodging taxes. In closing he said the true remedy for thJ condition of affairs was to send the right sort of mon to the legislature, men who will represent the people and not the railroads. A vote of thanks was tendered the speakers at the close of the meeting. NO COMPROMISE SHORTAGE Legal Anion lo Be Taken Asalnat Former Treasurer of Cedar ( onnty. HARTINOTON, Neb.. April 3.

Tey forced an entrance to Stebblns' building by prying the door tip en with a spade and breaking it from its binges. The thieves wero evidently amateurs, as they had pushed several elegant sets of fine silver spoons to the side of the showcase In order to get to the razors and revolvers. They broke Into the money drawer and secured $4 worth of scrip on J. J. Richards and Carlson Mercantile company, but left a wallet containing $35 In the back of the drawer untouched.

PROMINENT PHYSICIANS PRESCRIBE PE-RU-NA. li tem ROBERT R, ROBERTS M. Robert R. Roberts. M. I)., Wash- lnaton. P. C. writes: "Through my own experience as well as that of many of my friends and acquaintances who have been cured or relieved of ca tarrh by the use of Hartman's Peruna, I can confidently rec ommend It to those su ferlng from such disorders, and have no hesi tation In prescribing it to my pa tients." Robert R. Roberts. A constantly Increasing number of phy sicians prescribe Peruna In their regular practice. It has proven its merits so thor oughly that even the doctors hae over come their prejudice against so-called patent medicines and recommend it to their patients. Peruna occupies a unique position In med ical science. It Is the only internal syn tonic catarrh remedy known to the med ical profession today. Catarrh, as every one will admit. Is the cause of one-half the diseases which afflict mankind. Catarrh and catarrhal discasre uflllct one-half of the people of the United States. F. H. Brand, M. D., of Mokena, 111., uses Peruna in his practice. The following case Is an example of the success he has through the use of Peruna for catarrh.., . Dr. Brand says: "Mrs. 'C.,' age 28, had been a sufferer from catarrh for the past seven years; could not hear plain and had watery eyes. She came to me almost a physical wreck. She had tried the Cope land cures and various other so-called spe- NNiV . t;Vl 1 II LA Easter Opportunities The Important Matter of Easter Millinery The crowning glory of a woman's costume is her hut, and in its selection the whole costume may be thrown out of key and fall to be the success aimed at ford to patronize a milliner about whose have your Easter millinery beyond critic Ism you will boy your hat In our millinery played the most attractive line of gtylltfh head wear that has been shown in Omaha effects and styles suitable for wear with any costume.

She told me she felt a differ ent woman, her hearing was im proved and her eyes did not trouble her an;' more. "This is only one raiie of the many I have treated with your valuable medi cine." F. H. Brand, M. D. . Catarrh may Invade any organ of the body; may destroy any' function of the body. It most commonly attack the head, nose and throat, but thousands upon thou sands of cases of catarrh of 'he lungs, stomach, kidneys, bladder and other pelvic taste there can be any question, which m and full puffed sleeves, with or with iDlMlW F COrV'iMllCfJ C HtUUK t F. H. Brand, M. D. San Francisco, Says, Especial Ben c organs have been cured by Teruna. Teruna Is able to cure catarrh wher ever It may be located by Its direct action i upon the mui ous membranes. Catarrh means lnflamod mucous membranes. Tc runa arts at once to cleanse and luvlg orate the catarrhal condition of the mucous membrsne no matter where It may occur In the body Its action is the same on the mucous lining of the nose as on the muc ous (Mnlng of the bowels.

T., writes: "Peruna Is the best medicine I now of for rough and to strengthen a weak stom ach and to give appetite. P.rslde prescrib ing It for catarrh, I have lid-red It for v.rak and debilitated people, and have not had a patient but ald It helped him. It Is an excellent medicine nd it fits si nieny rases. "I tsve a large rrartice, and have a chance to prescribe your Peruna. 1 hope you may live long to do good to the sick and fuffering." We say Peruna cures catarrh. The peo ple say Peruna cures catarrh: Prominent men and women all over the I'nlted States from Maine lo California do not hesitate to come out In public print to say that Pe luna Is what it is recommended to be, an Internal, systemic catarrh remedy that cures catarrh wherever It may be located. Dr. M. C. Gee's Experience. Dr. M. C. Ore is one f.f the physicians who endorse Peruna. In a better written from 513 Jones street, San Francisco, Cal , he bpjv "There Is a general objection on the part of the practicing; physician to ad vocate patent medicines. But when any one medicine cures hundreds of people, It demonstrates its own value ard does not need the endorse of the profession. "Peruna has performed so many wonderijil cures In San Francisco that I am convinced that it Is a valuable remedy. I have frequently advised Its use (or women, as I find It insures regular and paln'css menstruation, cures leut'orrhoea and ovarian troubles, and builds up the entire system. I also consider It one of the finest catarrh remedies I know of. I heartily endorse your medicine." M. C. Gee, fl. D. Women are especially liable to pelvic catarrh, female weakness as it la com monly called. Especially In the first few weeks of warm weather do the disagree able symptoms of female weakness make themselves apparent. In crisp, cold weather chronic sufferers with pelvic catarrh do not feel eo persistently the debilitating effects of the drain upon the system, but at the approach of summer with its las- ituri. nnri tired feelings, the sufferer with pelvic catarrh feels the need of a strength ening tonic. Peruna Is not only the best spring tonls for such casea. but if persisted In will effect a complete cure. Write for a copy of "Health Mid Beauty," written especially for women by Dr. Hartman. If you want to read of some cures, also, write for a nopy of "Facts and Faces." That will suiely convince you that our claims are valid. If you do not derive prompt and satis factory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Harttnsn, ' giving a full statement of your case, and he will be pleased to give you his a'.uable advice gratis.
