with which these lots are sell

Omaha and vicinity know a
GOOD THING when they
see it, and avail themselves of
a golden opportunity when
they have a chance. Don't
delay any longer. Select the
lots you want at once, while
you have a large number from
which to pick. If you have a
few dollars to invest, we invite
you to call and give our offer
a thorough investigation, as we
have failed to find a person
after a thorough investigation
that has not bought and
brought their friends to make
a selection before all the best
lots are sold.
In this day of great wisdom,
you will meet people without a

they are "over Jealous for your

not to invest your money

fingers and never own a foot
of real estate in your life.

Right of Way.

1t is ofcourse generally understood
that all the interest the public owns
in the land over which our highways
pass is simply the right Of way. The
land belongs, as it did before the
road was located, to the several es-
tates from which it was taken. If at
any time the road is discontinued,
the land goes back to those estates.
Plain as this principle is, there are
curious questions Of right arising
from time to time. An interesting
one came up in connection with fish
ing right few years ago. An Eng
fish road had crossed little stream
by a ford from a time so early that
no one knew the beginning Of the
usage. -.
In later years, when fishing rights
became valuable, the owners of land
along the stream made it's waters
private property, as they had a
right to do. The ford, however, be-

fare. Could the traveller cast his
line for a fish while passing through
the water? Clearly this would be an
act of trespass. e.. =:
But this did not settle all the points
at issue before the public yielded. A
bridge was built over the stream
just below the ford. No formal dis
continuance ofthe old passage could,
however, be obtained People con-
tinued to drive through the stream,
to the serious injury Of the fishing
rights above and below.
Naturally the owners of the land
tried to prevent travel through the
| waiter. 1t was contended, on the
other part, that the horses were ac-
customed to drink on their way by
the ford, and that the bathing Of
their legsin the water refreshed them.
These were held to be conveniences
of travel, and were not surrendered
by the building OF the bridge.

anaconda was also coiled OH the

das, rattles, carriers, black snakes,
cobras and copperheads soon began
to congregate, hiss, scrape their
rasp like, scaly bodies over our ears,
crawl their clammy selves over our
faces and breathe their breath upon
our flesh. Great drops of perspira-
ton stood out on our faces as we
signaled each other to keep still and
silent. To speak would bave been
but to transfer the attention Of the
reptiles to ourselves. The snakes in
a short time began a fierce battle
between themselves, and the sus-
pense grew awful, as helpless we lay,
not daring to move if we could, and
listening to the writhing, struggling
forms and fangs in the horrid work
of wasting their hateful venom upon
each other. But soon our jailers,
to our delight took a hand in the
row, and unWound their coils from
our limbs. Once free, it was but a
few moments work to light the gas,
get brooms and by the arts known
to the profession, drive them into a
big box that was convenient. We
found that they had knocked the
stick down, escaped through the
roof of the glass case and crawled
up into our room for warmth.-St.

Popular Fallacies,

The antique worship of mystic
numbers still shows it's after-effect
in various popular superstitions,
for instance, the idea that young
animals born blind will open their
eyes on the ninth day. The truth is
that the blindness period Of puppies
varies from ten to sixteen days, and
that of kittens from six to twelve.
My children have a private zoo OF
domestic and foreign rodents, and
after three years experience have
come to the conclusion that the
young Of white rats never open their
eyes before the fifteenth day, the
eighteenth day being the usual
average. The frequent assertion
that colds will run their natural
course in nine days is equally enron
Ieous. A slight catarrh, character
lied by all it's unmistakable symp-
toms, may come and depart in three
times tWenty-four hours, while
| chronic sscolds' are often as persist
ent as their cause, and may worry a
whole family from Christmas to the
season OF open windows. Country
experts in, the pneumonia Of rabies
| are apt to assure the victim of a
swapping cur that the bite of a mad
dog will show its effect on the
seventh day, after which time
sometimes extended to the ninth
day. the dread of evil consequences
may be dismissed; but the truth is
that the virus Of hydrophohia may
