Kearaey, Neb.," May 15. That two democratic governor! and one demo cratic, legislature has advocated the passage of such a law as embodied in the civil administration code passed by the last legislature and which a democratic special committee is now trying to keep the people from LIFT OFF tXJRNS . VVTTH FINGERS Dotsn't hurt ; tit and costs ' 5 Only few cento Drop a- little Freezone on an ach ing corn, instantly that corn stops hurting, then you lift it right out. Yes,, magic! . A tiny bottle of Freezone costs but a few cents at any drug store, but is sufficient to remove every hard - corn, soft corn, or corn be tween the toes, and. the calluses, without soreness or irritation. Freezone is the sensational dis covery of 4 Cincinnati genius. It is wonderful. Adv. ' FARMER SPENT OVER $800 IN VAIN, HE SAYS Illinois Mm Suffered for Mine Years- Tanlac ' !; Overcomes His Troubles. - ."Since my health failed me about nine , years ago I have spent over eight hundred dollars trying to find something that would overcome my troubles, but all my efforts failed until I found Tanlac,"' said Alfred Streitmatter, ! a well known and " prosperous fanner who lives at Edel stein, HI., while in Sutliff and Case's Srug store, Peoria, a few days ago. f 'I will always believe that this Tanlac saved my life," he continued, "for I had given up hope of ever being a well man again and Tanlac has made me strong and healthy. I had been going down-hill steadily ever since my troubles started and my stomach had finally gotten in such a terrible condition that the very lightest kind of food would make me suffer agonies after meals. What little I did eat just seemed to form a lump right in the pit of my stomach and I would have the worst cramping spells a man ever had. This condition kept getting worse until I began having attacks of aoute in digestion and sometimes I would al most die before I could get a doc tor out to my place. After these at tacks wore off I would be so weak and nervous for several days that I just thought I couldn't stand it. My kidneys were badly out of order, too, and I suffered a great deal with pains in the small of my back and if I stooped over for anything I would have a sharp shooting pain in my back that just seemed to go - clear through my body; I would be so stiff and sore when I got out of bed every morning that it would take me about thirty minutes to dress myself, and it was almost im possible for me to lace my shoes. ; - "Well, I heard about Tanlae then, - and decided to buy a bottle and see what it would do for me, and in a mighty short time after I com- - menced taking.it, I knew I had at , last found a medicine that had hit the spot and 'would overcome my troubles. I began to improve be '. fore J had finished my first bottle of Tanlac and it just looked like the more Tanlac I took, the faster r t improved. . I have just finished my fifth bottle, and I am as well and Sound now as any man. I never have , those awful pains and that soreness I in my back any more and that stom . ach trouble has been so completely overcome that I can now eat just anything I want and am not both , ' ered with indigestion or sour stom- r:h afterwards. I eat a lot, too, for never had a better appetite in my life. I sleep fine every night, and . can springrout of bed and dress my self like I did when I was a boy, and ' , I can do as much work in a day as the beat of them. Tanlac did all this for me, and I am more than glad t recommend it to everybody." Tanlae is sold in Omaha by all Siarman McConnell Drug Com-, pany's stores. Harvard ' Pharmacy and West End Pharmacy. Also For rest and Meaney Drug Company in South Omaha and the leading drug gist in each city and town through art Um state of Nebraska. Adv, knowing its merits by invoking the referendum, was shown by Gov. S. R, McKelvte in a speech before the Kearney .Commercial club at . its noon luncheon Thursday. The governor in part said: :, " rtrat Cock legtoUtlea m mmUtti the nun la the repabitota pUttonn, m follows: ' .....

Recommended by Neville. j soon'- It was recommended by Gov ernor Kvnlo In his meaeago, as follows: I "Tho now constitution will, without doubt, provide a mora economical and efficient method of handling the state's business than through the multitude of boards under the present system. The board system Is not only expensive snd inefficient, but, ' In addition, ' divides authority and responsibility. It Is, at present. Impossible to handle the state's affairs In the efficient manner that would be demanded -by any business man In the conduct of his private transactions, and the thing most needed Is a oentrallsed responsibility for the discharge of the trust assumed by men - who arc elected by the people to servs as public officers. Dlvidsd authority and responsibility pro duces waste and Inefficiency, conditions too often Incident to the expenditure of the funds raised In taxes from the people ot thi state." ... Shew Savuef. - Third It was recommended by Oovy ernor If orebead In his messsf s to tho 14th session of the . Nebraska legislature, as follows: . . . "I have from tho first advocated" the consolidation of ' departments wherever possible, and where I have been able to put this policy In operation, It has shown a savins in expense and aft Improvement In efficiency." . . Also. In his messace to the 5tn session, be made the following; recommendation: The advantage of classifying the state's business and putting co-ordinate branches under one head has been .fully demonstrated by the consolidation of the pure food, drug and dairy department with the oil department. ... The policy of consolidation may, perhaps, bs carried still further ' to the advantage of the service," etc. t : Sons of Veterans Boost Barrows for Commander Lincoln, May IS. -Assistant Ad :...... nmmm n( tt-, ftranrl Armv IS lUiBIII w. . tf -- busily engaged gjetting things in shape tor tne state encampmcn at York next week.
