When You Eeel Tired,
Ko Appetite, Headache.
(By W. M. GRANTIER. M. V.)
It your wile tells yon that you are
"grouchy" and out-of-sorts, be thank
ful for the suggestion, and set to work
to get your liver busy, for it is more
than likely that its inactivity is at the
bottom of your trouble. Don't blame
your liver for not doing its work! You
nave undoubtedly been giving it too
much to do. You mav have occasional
headaches, feel tired, no appetite, and
coated tongue, and this condition may
lead up to other things. At such times
you are the easiest prey for colds,
grip, or the disease germs of malaria,
typhoid, the deadly phthisis, or the
many ills which carry off so many of
our citizens.
My .advice Is, give up alcohol, tea
and coffee. If you must drink some-
thing with your meals let it be a cup
of hot water. Begin in the morning
with a pint of hot water with a half
lemon squeezed in it, if possibleand
. drink it a half hour or lessbefore
breakfast. '
Take a . few minutes of bending
eAercise ana Dreaming in me morn
ing. Walk in the outdoor air. Occa
sionally, say, once a week, take a good
laxative, one that is entirely vege
table. A good one is that made up of
the extract of May-apple, vegetable
caloihel and jalap, and ean be had at
every drug store, for it has been sold
for nearly 60 years as Dr. Pierce's
Measant felleto. -
If you are occasionally troubled
with rheumatic pains or lumbago, pain
in the back, toes or muscles of the
body, this is due to uric acid stored
in the system. The liver and kidneys
ao not act properly. D or suob tk per
son, I advise taking Anuric (double
strength) three times daily for a week
or two. This Anuric throws out the
uric acid which accumulates, and if
taken occasionally will prevent or
cure rheumatism and gout. There is
no difficulty in obtaining Anuric at
any drug store. Advertisement.
Alkali Makes Soap
Bad For Washing Hair
Most soaps end prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali, which is very
injurious, as it ones tne scalp and
makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very
cheap and beats the most expensive
soaps or any thin e te all to pieces.
You can get this at any drug store,
and a few ounces will last the whole
family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is
all that is required. It makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather,
cleanses thoroughly and rinses out
easily. The hair dries quickly and
evenly and is soft, fresh looking,
bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to han
dle. Besides, it loosens and takes out
- every particle of dust, dirt and dand
ruff. Advertisement. ' v

Lincoln. Neb.. Mav 21. (Special.)
There are thousands of acres of
land in the Winnebago and Omaha
Indian reservation in Thurston county
which can be utilized for crops this
vear if the commissioner of Indian af
fairs will at once give permission to

tural nurnoses.
This is the message which came to
Governor Neville today from District
Judge Guy Graves of that district,
with information that most of the
land had one time been broken up
and could easily be cropped this year.
He advised that the commissioner of
Indian affairs cut out the red tape
methods hitherto practiced and at
once release the lands, for if there was
the usual delay there would be no
chance for a crop this year.
Governor Neville at once wired
Senator Hitchcock. Franklin K. Lane
and lie commissioner of Indian at-
fairs, Cato Sells, calling their atten
tion to the matter and urging quick
action. - - ,

Grace Brattou, 23 years old, an em
ploye in the auditor's department of
the Union Pacific, shot and instantly
killed herself yesterday afternoon in
the women's lavatory on the fourth
floor of the Brandeis building by fir
ing a bullet; through her head..
She left a note addressed to her
mother, Mrs. J. T. Bratton, 316 North
Twenty-seventh avenue.
The note read:-
"Dear Mother and Father: I love
you with all my heart, but I am leav
ing this world. I can't forget myself
and I will always be with myself no
matter where I am. For when I wake
up I am always there, jo there is
nothing that can be done for me.
Please forgive me for whatever sor

love. GRACE."
The weapon found beside the young
woman s cony was a -calibre re
volver. In the' chambers were three
unexploded shells and the one that
had been fired. i
A Mrs. Norton, Twenty-second and
Grace streets, heard the crash of the
revolver shot. She was the first to
reach the spot where Miss Bratton
iouk ner own inc. i ne young woman
was dead when she reached Tier side.
Identifies Body,
Miss Madeline ' Mohan. 2700 D
street, recognized the name on the
note and identified the body as that
of Miss Button.
County Attorney Magney, ex-officio
coroner, took charge of the body and
the note. He said that he would not
hold an inquest.
Mrs. Bratton was prostrated when
she went to an undertaker's, where,
the body wasy taken, and positively
identified it as that of her daughter.
The undertaker showed Mrs. Bratton
a hat, worn by the dead girl, and
asked if she recognized it. The
mother covered l.er face with her
hands and sobbed. "Yes, it's hers,"
she cried. She viewed the body later.
Ill Health Cause.
The mother believes that ill healih
had caused her daughter to become
mentally deranged.
Mrs. Bratton said that she had been
suffering with stomach trouble and
had worried almost constantly over
her condition.
The young. woman went to her
work at Union Pacific headquarters
yesterday morning in better spirits
than usual, Airs. Bratton said. She
called her mother on the telephone at
noon, but gave no hint of her intended
deed. ,
She returned to her desk ;.ftcr
lunch, but remained only a few min
utes. Employes said she suddenly
stooped work, put on her coat and hat
and left without saying a word to any
one. Miss Bratton is survived by her
mother and father and a brother, Les
ter Bratton. The father and brother
are employes of the Nebraska Tele
phone company.
RAIN BRINGS JOY TO
ALL THE FARMERS
Wheat Fine, Potato Acreage
Large, Pastures Improved
and Corn Mostly Is
Planted.
The heaviest rain of the season was
general over a greater portion of Ne
braska Sunday night. This is the report
that comes to the headquarters of the
railroads.
Through " the western and central
portions of the state the rain started
ito fall during the afternoon, continu
ing well into the night. In the east
ern part rain commenced falling soon
after midnight and continued until
morning.
Out around Holdrege, Table Rock,
McCook and Hickman the precipita
tion was from an inch to two inches.
Elsewhere it was from one-half to
three-fourth of an inch.
Railroad officials who study the
crop situation say that a rain never
came at a more opportune time. Crops
were not suffering on account of dry
weather, but in many localities the
danger point was not far away.
Of Greatest Benefit. .
The Burlington's crop report for
tlie week ending last Saturday and
covering all the agricultural sections
of the state indicate that while there
has been no cause for alarin on ac
count of soil conditions the rain coin
ing at this time will prove of great
benefit.
The crop report as compiled in the
office of the general superintendent of
the road places the winter wheat at
75 per cent of the normal acreage
through the western part of Ihe state
and the condition of that which was
reseeded close to 100. On other divi
sions of the system west of the Mis
souri river a large acreage has been
plowed up and the ground seeded to
spring wheat and oats. These grains
are reported to be coming on rapidly,
promising a good yield.
Last week was favorable for corn
planting and all available men anil
boys with many girls in some locali
ties were in the fields. In most of
the southern counties of the state
planting has been finished. In the
central and northern sections it is
estimated that 40 to 50 per cent of the
corn is in the ground.
Pastures are greatly improved, but
no improvement is apparent in the
alfalfa fields, generally the plant hav
ing been killed or greatly damaged
by Ihe cold weather of last winter.
The largest acreage of potatoes ever
known has been planted and as a rule
the plants are making rapid growth.
There is said the prospects indicate
the largest fruit crop ever grown.
Locally the rain was of immense
benefits to the gardens, which were
just beginning to show the need of
moisture.
Heavy Rain In Gage.
Beatrice, Neb., May 21. (Special
Telegram.) A heavy rain began fall
ing here this evening and continued
this evening. Corn, oats and vegeta
tion of all kinds looks promising.
Good Rain In Southwest.
Cambridge, Neb., May 21. (Special
Telegram.) Three-fourths of an inch
of ram fell last night, assuring a three
fourths crop of wheat.
