About three years ago Mrs. F. L.
Frey of this city was taken with a
severe headache that prostrated her,
and when she recovered from it she
had lost her voice. From that time
until Friday evening of last week she
had to speak only in a whisper. While
at prayer meeting last Friday evening
she suddenly discovered that she could
sing as well as ever, and is now the
happiest woman in Great Bend.

Beetsp Well I should remark.
Beets the finest in the land can be
raised in Barton county. Jake Miller
brought in some samples last week
that are as fine roots as can be found
anyplace. Beets make good cow feed,
when you teach the cows to eat them,
and one farmer tells US he feeds them
to his horses.

can afford for things we do not want
in order to please people whom we do
not like and to help the heather, who
are happier than we are.n

The Time to Subscribe.

The old newspaper saying, "now is
the time to subscribe" was never
more true than at present. The
times are so full of incident, so many
important national and state affairs
are shaping themselves for change
that no one can afford to be without
a metropolitan daily or weekly. The
st. Louis Republic, the greatest Dem
ocratic newspaper. is making spe-
cial offer of its daily and Sunday pa
per for three months at 81. so. 1t is
Sc a year by mail. The Twice-a-
Week Republic is sent two times a
week-104 papers-for only 81 a year.
In addition to all political news, ii
prints every day a spread of general
news and features not equalled by
any other paper.
