What inexcusable folly in some
citizens to be duped by sleek, white
cravated strangers, who frequently cal
upon them with tempting hooks we'll
baited with a promise of large returns
and nominal outlay, after the first de-
pOsit, which usually remains in the
pocket of the ". c. 8. who represent
some building and loan association with
a high sounding cOgnomen. Better pa
tronize home institutions that You can
visit and are open to enquiry at any
time. The Columbus building and loan
association has done much to help build
up our city, ard benefit the poor man
who without such institutions, could
not have secured a snug little home of
their own such as many now have. We
cheerfully give place to the following:
1.-THE directors of the Schuyler build
ing and loan association met last Satur-
day evening and made the following
loans: Jos. J. Fiala, 500 at 26L per
cent premium; Bartunek 5000 at rs;
Geo. Schuesier $1,000 at 25 and Mn.
Cook 500 ut 26 per cent premium. Mr..
John e. Arnold, the efficient secretary,
informs us that the monthly receipts Of
the association have reached the sum of
$500. It has made some sixty loans
already. The association is doing noble
work in building up our city. Many Of
our best business blocks owe their ex-
istence to the help given by the associa-
ton but better than all are the little
homes that it makes possible for it's
members to own by small monthly pay
ments."

North Nebraska conference

The North Nebraska conference
convenes in Omaha on Wednesday the
18th, holding its session at the First NJ. E.
church, Bishop Goodson presiding over
ITS deliberations, which are expected to
be OF a more than interesting character.
One OF the features calculated to induce
some friction, is the election OF four
delegates, two clerical and two laymen
to the general conferences; the cause of
this intense interest may be explained
in the fact that the general conference,
or lawmaking body Of the n. E. church,
will meet In Omaha in May, 1892, at
which time the mooted question of
woman representation in the conference
will probably be disposed of.

DR.. Talmage in a recent sermon
make this statement: 1.-The board of
health of Massachusetts, analysed a great
amount of what was called pure coffee
and found in it not one particle of
coffee" and in his inimitable style, dealt
out a scathing rebuke to the avarice of
the men who for gain would 80 reck-
lessly tamper with the health of the
people. He possibly had heard OF. the
Boston men that are putting on the
market an imitation of coffee, made of
clay and -four, which is sold for six cents
a pound and is mixed with genuine
coffee at a ratio Of about one pound to
four. These schemers should be COM
PEELED to use their own fraudulent pro-
