Durant.
Services by Elder Mcbride in the
Lutheran church, Sunday morning and
evening.
Services in the Congregational church,
Sunday morning and evening. by Rev.

The Christian Endeavor convention at
Lebanon, Saturday evening and Sunday
last, was attended by Misses Hannah
Mcbride and Florence Thompson, and
Messrs. Russell McMillen, Howard
Finity and c. T. Watson, all of our city.
A district convention of the Epworth
league will be held in Wauneta, Tues
day and Wednesday next, March I3 and
IA. An interesting and lengthy pro-
gramme has been prepared. The con
v~ention embraces all of the district west
of McCook. Revs. Coffman and Bell of
our city are on the programme.
The Epworth league a "cra-
~ social to be held in the Methodist
church o. Tuesday evening of coming
week. It is t o be inferred that the peo-
pie are to come dressed and to act accord
ingly-a little odd say. At any rate there
is a good time in store for all who may
come, and a general invitation is given.
Easter Sunday morning the members
ofthe St. John Commandery of our city
will attend divine services in the Metho-
dist church in a body. It is probable
that Rev. James Lisle, ~Indianola, and a
Knight Templar, will deliver the SER
mon on this occasion. This is a very
beautiful custom of Templarism, indeed.

The postmaster who finds his Office
getting short of stamps, makes out an
order on a printed blank and sends it to
the post Office department at Washing
ton. Here the postmaster's accounts
are examined and if his credit is good,
the order is approved, charged to his
account and forwarded to the govern
ment agent at the factory where postage
stamps are made. The government
agent has the stamps counted, carefully
packed and sent by registered mail to
the postmaster, who sends a receipt for
them to Washington.

We have seen quite a number of watch
chains about town ornamented with a
neat, little charm in the shape of a watch
case opener, which obviates the use of q
knife or finger nail to open the watch.
We have just received one, and would
advise you to send for one, too. They are
sent free on request, by the Keystone
Watch Case Company, of Philadelphia,
Pa, the largest watch case manufacture
ing concern in the world. They are the
makers of the celebrated Jas. Boss cases,
the only filed case which are fitted with
the world-famed Non-pull-out bow(ring).
The company does not sell at retail, but
its goods are sold by our local jewellers.

The printers best friend is the man OF
woman who gives him items Of news.
There are some people we know, how.
ever, who have such a prejudice against
telling a newspaper man anything that
if they died they wouldn't say anything
about it. If a baby is born to You give
it in for pub1ication-that is, the item,
not the baby. If you have visitors send
their names and residence. If You have
made a successful financial speculation
and have money in your pocket, give il
to us-that is the item, not the money.
newspapers run without money. If not
convenient to call, drop Us a postal; we'll
pay for the postal. We want to hear
from you often.

New Morning Glory.

A vine growing from seed that will
cover a fence in no time, a rampant
grower, and then it is a beautiful vine,
with its huge leaves, dark prick1y stems
and immense -rose-colored flowers from
three to four inches across, and costs
only 20 cents per packet. Every one
interested in climbers or new. and good
things for the garden should send 10
cents to James Vick's sons, Rochester,
N. Y, for Vick's Floral Guide for 1894,
which is a perfect beauty in its gold
cover. As the 10 cents may be deducted
from FIRST order, it really costs nothing.

Many people ask favors Of q newspa-
per publisher without the remotest idea
of what their request means. Most Of
them think, 20, well, he has to print
his paper at any rate, and he might ~
well fill it out with something in my in
terest or that Of some friend of mine as
anything else" Such people should re-
member that every letter and line print
ed in a newspaper costs money. The

must be paid, the paper, ink. wear and
tear Of the types must be paid for, to say
nothing of rents, insurance and other
incidentals. We are always willing to
show favors to our friends, and to our
regular advertisers we try to be espe-
cially generous in the way of free local
notices. And now We want to say to
advertisers that if they want their bust
ness laid before the people, THE TRIB-
UNE is the medium. Meaning no re-
Election on our contemporaries, we have
reason to believe that THE TRIBUNE is
a paper that is read-not merely sub
scribed for, delivered at your house, or
taken out of the post Office and thrown
aside. It will not do for a newspaper
man to be too modest. His goods are
for sale just as those of any other bust
ness mans goods are, and if he wants to
sell them he must not only praise them,
but, to hold and increase his custom. he
must offer the best at the lowest price.

A recent discussion in the New York
Academy of Medicine gave evidence of a
healthy reaction against the one-sided-
ness which has of late years been noticea-
Bile in American archaeological litera-
ture on the subject of asthenopic COM
plants. DR.. TIL. r. Pooley related his
experience with asthenopia not depend
ent upon error of ~refraction and INSULT
c~iencies of the ocular muscles. and his
views seemed to receive general endorse
ment. Germany has not inapt1y
been called the land of spectacles. But
the reason which has led to their extern
sive employment in that country, viz:
the great frequency of Myopia, fortu-
nately does not apply with us to the
same extent. Yet of all facts in medicine
none are better founded than the knowl-
edge that even moderate degrees of far
sightedness or near-sightedness or astig-
matism, lead, in many persons, to dis
comfort and pain, or painful vision in
the use of the eyes, and often headaches
and other nervous disturbances. No
oculist can overlook the fact that many
people suffer from these optical defects,
although many in a moderate form. In
a small per cent of these patients with
painful vision, not durable by glasses,
the cause can be found in some nasal or
catarrhal trouble, and the discomfort re-
moved or cured by appropriate nasal
treatment. This fact was well established
a year ago by DIR. St. John Roosa, of
New York. Among 100 persons with
supposed normal eyesight and who had
never suffered from any disease of the
eyes, he found only g with perfect eyes.
As were far-sighted to some degree, and
as suffered from some of the various de-
licences of the eye all requiring the aid
of glasses to correct the abnormal eve
sight or eye-strains. to give relief. 1t
is not rare for many of those patients
who complain of eye-strain or painful
vision, hat after wearing their glasses
for a time are able to lay them aside as
unnecessary, q cure having been effected.
At any rate the discussion in the New
York academy will be productive of
good if it will only teach the people to
take good care of their eyes, and the
doctors how to learn and secure the best
results. It is always advisable in any
case of amy trouble with ones eyes to
consult an o-culist.-Medical Journal

Colvin & Beggs are making an effort
to effect an organization of the various
real estate agents of this portion of Ne
braska for advertising purposes. In this
organization they hope to be able to do
some widespread advertising in the east
to induce immigration to southwestern
Nebraska. And in this united way they
hope to ecu better results than by
individual efforts, and at a greatly re-
duced expense. No doubt the plan they
propose is feasible, and we hope that the
idea may be carried out. For thus a
large amount of advertising matter con-
corning this country will find its way to
the east, and good results must follow.

The subject of alfalfa growing is de-
servedly receiving considerable atten-

value as a forage plant is not half appre-

neighborhoods where it has been intro
duced its cultivated area rapidly extends
and the more widely its merits become
known, the more it is appreciated.

is worth anything to any city in

city than to any other. There
should be some definite action TAX
