Halls Hair Remover.
The farmer was not very much in
evidence on our streets last Saturday
and it almost seemed like Sunday.
Trego county farmers don't come to
town Saturdays when the wheat har-
vest is on.
We are informed that the well on
the state irrigation plant is a failure
on account of having struck shale.
Just what will be done we are unable
to state, but they will doubtless try
again in some other locality.
Last Sunday while crossing the Sa-
line, the water was so high that it
came into DR.. Jones' buggy and wash
ed away his medicine case and case
containing surgical instruments. The
latter has since been found.
To the Kansas Breeze: Do you give
poor, INDECENT, western Kansas edi-
tors half rates? If so we will sub
scribe as soon as we can raise another
forty cents or, perhaps, you might
allow Us a little something on fex-
change.
Tt is your duty as well as privilege
to look young as long as you can. One
way to do so is by dressing your hair
with Ayers Hair Eigor. 1t causes
the hair to retain it's color and full
ness to a late period Of life, and keeps
the scalp in good healthy condition.
"Haye tried others, but like Ayers
best" is the statement made over and
over again by those who testify to the
benefit derived from the use of Ayers
Sarsaparilla. Disease never had a
greater enemy than this powerful
blood-purifier. 1t makes the weak
strong.
If men are the salt of the earth,
women are undoubtedly the sugar.
Salt is a necessity, sugar is a luxury.
| Vicious men are Salt-peter, stern men
are table salt. Old maids are the
brown sugar, good natured matrons
are the loaf sugar, and the pretty girls
are the fine pulyeriZed white sugar.
Salt and sugar make a good mixture,
at any rate pass us the sugar. Elk.
There has scarcely been a week
since last April that we have not re-
corded good rain in Trego county.
This week is no exception. A large
corn crop may not be absolutely assur-
ed at this writing, but we will have
a fair crop if we receive no more rain.
Feed will be abundant without any
more rain. Our farmers are hopeful
and will, perhaps, sow as large an
acreage to fall wheat as was ever soWn
in the county.
A letter was received in the city
yesterday which explains how Henry
Robinson met his death last week in
Illinois. He was shipping cattle from
Mounds, H., to Chicago. At Forest
ILL.,, he left the way car and went out
along the side of the train and with a
lighted match in his hand was peerine
into a car to see if the cattle were all
right. The express passed on an adj
joining track, striking Robinson, kill.

A story is told in one of our eX
changes of how preacher tested the
effect of the hard times upon his con
gregatiOn. He requested all those
who were paying their debts to rise in
their seats. Every man, woman and
child, except one, instantly arose. At
ter they were seated he requested any
who were not paying their debts tC
arise and be counted. The lone in
dividual, with a care-worn face and
mOth-eaten suit, slowly assumed q
perpendicular posture. The minister
asked: ''How is it, my friend, that
you are the only man in my congrega-
tion that is unable to meet his obliga-
tions?" With unfeigned meekness he
answered: II run newspaper. My
brethren here who have just stood ul
are my subscribers, and" LET us
close" interrupted the minister
Sam Jones: II don't believe in
dreams, and l am never going to be
divorced. My wife may get one some
day if she can, but she'll never do il
with my consent, because l like my
wife, / do dead sure! As l told hel

earth that would tempt me to divorce
it would be to see my wife ride dowr
