FIGHT AGAINST
SKINNER BOARD
Judge Dissolves- Order Re
straining Directors' Meeting
Notices Issued for Tues
day Session.
District Judge Sears yesterday on
motion of R. C. Howe, president of
the Skinner company, dissolved the
order issued April 12 prohibiting the
board of directors of the Skinner
company fromneeting ad voting
Mr. Howe out of office.
"This action was taken," said F. A.
Brogan, attorney for Mr. Howe, "be
cause the work far which Mr. Howe
wanted to remain in the office of
president has been accomplished,
namely, paying off $1,400,000 of
notes, underwritten by Mr. Howe."
In less than an hour after the
order was signed by Judge Sears,
there ws a meeting of all the di
rectors except Mr. Howe in the of-J
hce of ,W. A. Schall, one of the
Skinner attorneys. Plans were
made for the directors' meeting and
a formal call was made for it..
Meeting Probably Tuesday.
"We are required to send out
notices 24 hours in advance of a
directors' meeting," said Paul Skin
ner. "These notices will be sent
out today and the meeting will be
held, probably, tomorrow.
"The directors now see the way
clear to a speedy resumption of ths
progressive, productive and profit
able condition of the, Skinner com
pany without reference to the past
incidental, but unpleasant, vicis
situdes of our business. Construc
tive policies that will merit the
praise of our stockholders and the
public generally will be pursued."
Directors of the company are

Why Bjjjkinny?
It's Easy to Be Plump
. Popular and Attractive ,
lt'( easy to be plump, popular and at
tractive instead of being thin, angular
and scrawny. Almost invariably the
trouble ,is due to, weak nervea and eon
sequent failure to assimilate your food.
You may eat heartily, but owing to the
lack of nervous energy and impover
ished blood you don't get the benefit
from the food you eat. All of this can
be remedied - very quickly by taking
with each meal a five-grain tablet of
Blood-Iron Phosphate. This quickly
strengthens the nervous system, en
riches the blood and increases its oxy
gen carrying power, and in a remarkably
short time the average thin, weak, nerv
ous man or woman begins not only to put
on flesh, but also begins to look and feel
better. ' Sleep, appetite, strength and en
durance are improved, dull eyes' become
bright, and, unless afflicted with some or
ganic complajnt, there is no reason why, if
you take Blood-Iron Phosphate regularly,
you should not soon look and feel much
better and many years younger. Deposit
tl.60 today with Sherman & MeConnell
Co., or any other druggist, for enough
Blood-Iron Phosphate for a three .weeks'
treatment. Use as directed and if at the
end of three weeks you aren't delighted
go back and get your money. Your drug
gist, a nan you know, is authorised to
give it to you.

extra flesh is needed by all to feel well

Started a Big Movement
In Omaha
.. -when
they announced that their entire stock of merchandise would be placed on
sale at a 20 per cent deduction from the actual prices and they note with pleasure
that as usual, others have followed their leadership.
When we inaugurated this extraordinary movement in this community we proved
that we were living up to our motto. ' " , .
"To Be of the Greatest Service to
the Greatest Number
- s
This campaign was not done simply as an excuse to hold an enormous sale to re
duce stocks or to meet the prices of others, or to secure immediate funds, but was.
done in a spirit of helpfulness to the people to
wer the Price of Merchandise
Burgess-Nash merchandise is well known as the highest and best quality and the
most desirable kind and yet at their regular pricings cost you no more than else
where. Fully convinced that the sacrifice of profits for a period of time would make a sat
isfactory adjustment of prices, we offered for sale, with the exception of certain
trade-marked goods, which no honorab'e merchant can reduce in price .
Our Entire Stock of Merchandise
-at-
From the Actual Prices
It seemed our duty as leaders of this community to start this great move and by
making it a straight 20 per cent discount, we gave to the people as great an ad
vantage as any honorable merchant could do.
Everybody Knows that Burgess
Nash Statements are Authentic
and it seems almost needless to say that ALL DEDUCTIONS ARE ON AC
TUAL PRICES, for we have never marked up overvalues on tickets to r create
markdowns and never will. '
Shoppers will find price cards on Burgess-Nash merchandise unchanged. They
will just deduct 20 per cent from the marked ticket when the purchase is made.
The original price will be noted on the sale check and below will be marked the
20 per cent reduction. '
It will be to the advantage of every-'
one to read our daily advertisements
carefully. Each, day they will con- '
tain a message of vital interest to this -community.
The Great Demand of thej
has been for lower prices on mer
chandise that the people need and it
is with satisfaction that we note the
enthusiasm on the part of the' public
and very gratifying to know that they
appreciate the campaign which we
started for their benefit. . ;.
