Bobbie's Scare.
Frank Mansell, Aged 8 Years, 2928
Vinton St., Omaha, Blue bide.
One day when Bobbie was on his
way to school he spied some big, red
apples in Farmer Jones' orchard
which made bis mouth water. He
could not pass them by. They looked
too good so be said. Til just get

lie climbed over the barbed wire
fence which was around the trees and
soon had his hat full of apples. Bobbie
being anxious for the apples did not
think of any one's looking out-of the
windows of the little farm house.
After getting all the apples he wanted
he looked around and saw Farmer
Jones cominsr.
Bobbie rushed for the fence and in
his hurry caught his pants on the
fence and tore them, but he did not
care for that if he could only get
away. He did not, however, for
Farmer Jones reached over the fence,
graDoea mm by the collar and pulled
him back. This caused Bobbie to drop
half of his apples.
Til teach you to steal other peo
ple's apples," grumbled Farmer Jones.
'I'll never do it again," cried Bob
bie. Then Farmer Jones said, "you
hadn't better let me catch you again
because next time you won't get away
so easy."
So frightened Bobbie went on his
way to school thinking what excuse
he could make for being late. v

Our Pet Lambs.
By Marian Colborn, Aged JO Years,
Route 3, Lakeview, Mich. Red
Side.
- Three years ago papa bought some
sheep. That spring we raised eight
een Iambs, having three pairs of
twins. We had to raise the three
odd lambs, because their mothers
would not claim them.
They soon learned to drink out of
a dish and became great pets. Every
morning before daylight they would
chase around the porch three or four
times, then stop to eat flowers out
of the porch box. Ted, my brother,
and I often hitched them up to our
little wagon and had lots of fun. .
A Grateful Pet.
.Vera Mead, Aged 14 Years, Elba, Neb.
R. F. D. No. 1, Blue Side.
Once there lived a little girl named
Ella. Her parents were very poor,
but Ella was happy.
She could not go to school as most
children, but she played with the birds
and other animals in the woods.
One day as she was playing in the
woods she found a little dog. The
dog had no home so Ella gave it some
food and a home.
About a week after that as Ella
was walking through the woods she
got lost, but her little dog showed
her the way home, and thus rewarded
all her faithful care.

when she got big enough we fed her

When wc let her out of the barn
she would follow us around and when
she was hungry she would come to

Often when she was playing in the

The Story of Iron,
By Leona Penke, Aged 14 Years, Ben
nington, Neb. Blue Side.
Iron is a heavy, solid noncombusti
ble metal. When it is pure it has a
white color. Its most useful property
is its hardness, which is greater than
that of any other metal It can be
made into steel, which is next in hard
ness to diamonds.
Iron is rarely found in a mire state.
( . . F
oeing made ot oxygen, sulphur and
other substances, the mixture of
which is called iron ore. It is found
in all countries and is a very impor
tant product of the United States.
where valuable deposits are found in
the neighborhood of coal.
In the manufacture of iron the ore
is first roasted in the open air. Then
it is subjected to a very great heat
in a blast furnace. This is called
smelting. The metal is melted by the
intense heat and is drawn off from
the bottom of the furnace into chan
nels made in sand. It is then in the
form of pig iron.
rig iron is then smelted and stirred
again, after which, while still hot, it.
is hammered and rolled into bars.
Wrought iron is the strongest and
most tenacious of all metals and is
therefore used where great strain has
to be resisted. Separate nieces of
iron can also be welded or beaten
into a mass more easily than anv
outer meiai.
I wish some of the
would write to me, as

By Ruby Toline, Aged 11 Years,
Stromsburg, Neb. Blue Side.
This summer I stayed in town about
two weeks with my grandpa, grandma

One Sunday we all got ready and
went to my uncle's on a picnic. He

He had built a road on which they

Some of my other aunts and un

We had a big dinner. Then after
dinner we went fishing and wading in

Then we started for home. I was
very tired, but had a nice time.

Blind Boy Enjoys the City Park

At the Spring Lake park playground
a small boy was observed striking
trees with a stick. The trees were
his horses and had the power of
galloping over hill and dale.' He had
never seen a tree, but in his mind
visualized them as creatures with
power of movement.

years of age. His home is at 2517

has been blind from birth, he is the
happiest boy at this playground. When

the thought of other attentions.
A slight sound at the window. It
was nothing of course only her un
strung nerves. Mrs. Bailey, the
widow, had gone to a neighbor's for
the evening, and Margaret was alone
in the isolated cottage. She was try
ing to work to condense and "crisp"
the dialogue of her story.
Af ain the sound at the window rose
above the click of her typewriter.
Silence. Then a furtive step that
filled her with eold fear. The next
moment the sash was thrown up and
a man leapt in the room. His slouch
hat drawn low half concealed his face.
Margaret speechless cowed back
against the wall.
"I want those letters Kennedy
wrote you!" advancing threateningly.
"I burnt them!" through her terror
was a note of triumph.

burst into the room. He dashed first
to the window, then seeing pursuit
was useless, he turned to Margaret.
White and trembling, she was crouch
ing against the wall.
Very gently he quieted herr while
she clung to him with a deepening
realization of the protection and se

a leaping hope in his voice.
"But I still care," brokenly forcing
the admission. At least she owed Nor
wood the truth. She would not mis
lead him by a false hope.
A moment's silence, then with char
asteristic unselfishness, he dismissed
every thought except for her. She
must let him take her back, to town
it was not safe for her to: spend the
night there,
Margaret, unnerved and shaken,
swift impulse, quietly took the decan
ter and carried it upstairs.
In her own room,. she glanced anx
iously about for some place to hide it.
At the sound of Kennedy's step on
the stairs, hastily she thrust it in a
deep drawer of her desk, turning the
key as he entered.
"Give me that decanter, Man-," an
grily. "I'm not a child!"
"Oh, dqar, you don't want any more
tonight. You're not yourself you
haven't been for days."
With an ugly' laugh, he wrenched
the key from her. As he opened the
drawer, with a sharp exclamation, he
snatched out a letter.
Before she realized what it was
he was reading it:
Mrs. Kennedy: I am going
away, not because of your threat,
but because I realize any public
ity regarding our friendship would
aeteat Mr. ivennedy s election. I
love him too deeply to stand in
the way of his success.
"MARGARET WARNER."
"So you drove her away?" he moved
towards her with clenched hands. "It
was your damnable interference"
"Don't, Horace! Don't say any
thing you may regret."
"After this there's nothing I could
say to you that I'd regret. I shall
find Miss Warner, bring her back
and force you to apologize!"
"Horace, you can't mean that! You
don't know what you are saying!"
"I mean just that! You've humilia
ted hecr-I'll humiliate you."
"And if I refuse to to apologize?"
her lips were gray white.
"You'll not refuse not if you wish
to live here!"
For a long time Mary stood where
he had left her. her taze fixed unsee-
ingly on the closed door.
ihen, turning to her still open desk,
sne took out a sheet ot note paper.
Forcing her hand at steadiness, she
wrote without faltering:
"You have humiliated me
enough. I have now no choice
but to leave you. Should you ever
put this other woman out of your
life, you may write me, care of

It i a problem with the Nebraska
railroads to know just wht to do in
the matter of lining up passengei
equipment for handling traffic to the
state fair at Lincoln during the first
week in September. The problem
is brought about because all the ex
tra equipment mav be nresseH into
service in transporting troops.
As a rule, to handle. the stale fair
traffic the Burlington during fair
week operates forty passenger train,
and the Union Pacific. Xorthv eterr
and Missouri pacific each about hal;
as many.
At this time Nebraska roads are
awaiting orders to handle to Deining,
N. M., or some other training camp
approximately 6,000 soldiers. This"
movement, railroad passenger men
say, would require at least forty train?
of twelve to fifteen dav coaches, a
total of 480 to 6-10 extra cars more
than any one of the roads has avail
able at the present time.
Might Get Them Back.
Should the movement of the sol
diers be delayed until late into next
week it would be impossible to send
the cars to Dcming, unload them and
get them back into service in tim
for the state fair business.
As a result of there not being am
certainty as to when the troops wii.
be moved, none of the roads is pub
lishing any schedules on state fair
trains, nor will they do so until the
officials know what the government
will call upon them to do in the mat
ter of soldier train service.
The probabilities are that the Bur
lington or the Rock Island will haul
the soldiers out of Fort Crook ami
Lincoln, but others will be hauled by
the roads operating into the towns
where they are mobilized and turned,
over to the Burlington or Rock Isl
and at some junction point.
There is nothing to indicate that
the state fair dates will be canceled,
but the railroad passenger men as
sert that the 'prospect for getting
crowds into Lincoln are not bright
unless the Nebraska soldiers are
moved within the next few days.

NEW YORK. N. T. Since the remarkable
discovery of organic iron, Nuxated Iron or
"Fer Nuxate." as the French calt it. has
taken the country by storm, it is conserv
atively estimated that over three million
people annually are taking it in this country
alone. Host astonishing results are reported
from its use by both physicians and laymen.
So much so that doctors predict that we
shall soon have a new age of far more beau
tiful, rosy-cheeked women and vigorous iron
men.
Dr. Ferdinand King, a New York Physician
and Medical Author, when interviewed on
this subject, said: "There can be no vigor
ous iron men without Iron. Pallor means
anaemia. Anaemia means iron deficiency. The
skin ot anaemic men and women is pale;
the flesh flabby. The muscles lack tone:
the brain fags aid the -nemory fails and
often they become weak, nervous, irritable,
despondcrt and melancholy. When the iron
goes from t blod of women, the roses
go from their cheeks.
In the most common foods or America,
the starches, sugars, table syrups, candies,
polished rice, white bread, soda crackers,
biscuits, macaroni, spaghetti, tapioca, sago,
farina, degerminated eorninc-al, no longer is
iron to be found. Retimmt processes have
removed the iron of Mother Earth from
these impoverished foods and silly methods
of home cookery, by throwing down the
waste pipe the water in which our vege
tables are cooked, are responsible for an
other grave iron loss.
Therefore, if you wish to preserve your
youthful vim and vigor to s ripe old axe,
you must supply the iron deficiency in your
iooa Dy using some lorm ot organic iron,
iust as you would use salt when your fcod
.as not enough salt."
Former Health Commissioner Wm. S.
Kerr, of the City of Chicago, says: "I have
taken Nuxated Iron myself and experienced
its health giving, atrength-building effect
and in the interest of the public welfare I feed
it my duty to make known the results of its
use. I am well past three score years and
want to say that I believe my own great
physical activity is largely due today to my
personal use of Nuxated Iron. From my own
experience with Nuxated Iron. I feel if is
such a valuable remedy that it ought to be
used tn every hospital and prescribed by
every physician in this country."
ir. a. fcsner, a Boston physician who has
studied both in ihi country and in great
European medical institutions, said: "As I
have said a hundred timea over, organic
iron ia the greatest of all strength
builders.
"Not long ago man came to me who
was nearly half a century old and akked
me to give him a preliminary examination
for life insurance. I was astonished to find
him ith the blood pressure of a boy of
twenty and as full ot vigor, vim and vitality
aaNi young man: 0 fait, a young man he
really was, notwithstanding his age. The
secret, he said, was taking iron Nuxated
Iron had filled him with renewed life. At
S9 he was in bad health; at 4 he was
careworn and nearly all in. Now at 60 .after
taking Nuuted Iron, a miracle of vitality
and his faoe beaming with the buoyancy of
youth. Iron is absolutely necessary to en
able your blood to change food into living
tissue. Without it, no matter how much
or what you eat, your food merely lasses
through you without doing you any good.
You duh't get the strength out of it, and as
a consequence ou become weak. Dale and
sickly looking, just like a plant trying to
grow in a soil deficient in iron. If you are
, t3P ' "

not strong or well, you owe it to yourself to
make the following test: See how long you
can work or how far you can walk without
becoming tired. Next take two five-grain
tablets of ordinary nuxated iron three times
per day after meals for two weeks. Then
test your strength again and see how much
you have giined. 1 hae seen dozens of nerv
ous, run-down people who were ailing all the
while double their strength and endurance
and entirely rid themselve of all symptoms
of JyspepsU, liver and, other troubles in
from ten to fourteen days' time simply by
taking iron in the proper form. And this,
after they had in some casea been t'octoring
tor months without obtaining any benefit."
Dr. Schuyler C. Jaques, Visiting Surgeon
of St. Elizabeth's Hospital, New York City,
said: "I have never before given out any
medical information or advice for publication,
as I ordinarily do not believe in it. But in
the ease of Nuxated Iron I feel I would be
remiss in my duty not to mention it I have
taken it myself and given it to my patients
with most surprising and satisfactory re
sults. And those who wish to increase their
strength, power and endurance will find it
a most remarkable and wonderfully effective
remedy."
Dr. James Louis Beyea, for IS years Ad
junct Professor in the New York Homeopath
ic Medical College, aays: "As a physician I
have always been opposed to prescribing ad
vertised remedies, and for fifteen years, while
Adjunct Professor in the New York Homeo
pathic Medical College. I taught my medical
students that such remedies were generally
valueless, but in the case of Nuxated iron
severe tests made on myself and numerous
patients have absolutely convinced me that it
is a remedy of most extraordinary merit and
one which should be generally prescribed by
II physicians. Notwithstanding the fact
that I am nearing my 80th birthday, a short
course of Nuxated Iron has made me feel like
a new man. Friends say, 'Whst have you
been doing to yourself, you look so well and
full of life T" In my opinion there is nothing
like organic iron Nuxated Iron to put
youthful strength"' and power into the veina
of the weak, run-down, infirm or aged. But
beware of the old forms of metallic iron
which often do more harm than good. To be
absolutely sure that my patients get real or
ganic iron and not some form of metallic va
riety, I always prescribe Nuxated Iron in its
original packages."
NOTE Nuxated Iron, which is prescribed
and recommended above by physicians in
such a great variety of canes, is not a
patent medicine nor secret remedy, but one
which is well known to druggists and whose
iron constituents are widely prescribed by
eminent physicians, both in Europe and in
America. Unlike the older inorganie iron
products it is easily assimilated, does not
injure the teeth, make them black, nor up
set the stomach on the contrary, it is a
most potent remedy in nearly all forms of
indigestion as well as for nervous, run-down
conditions. The manufacturers have such
great confidence in nuxated iron that they
offer to forfeit J 100 to any charitable in
stitution if they cannot take any man or
woman under 60 who lacks iron and increase
their strength 100 per cent or over in four
weeks' time, provided they have no seriaii
organic trouble. They also offer to refund
your money if ft does not at least Mouble
your strength and endurance in ten days'
time. It ia dispensed in this city by Sherman
