A few weeks ago the editor was taken
with a very severe cold that caused him
to be in q most miserable condition. 1t
was undoubtedly a Dad case of la grippe
and recognizing it as dangerous he took
immediate steps to bring about speedy
cure. From the advertisement of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy and the many
good recommendations included therein,
we concluded to make first trial of the
medicine. To say that it was satisfac-
tory IN its results, is putting it very
mildly, indeed. It acted like magic and
the result was speedy and permanent
cure. We have no hesitancy in recon-
mending this excellent Cough Remedy
to anyone afflicted with congh or cold
in any form.-The Banner of Liberty,

THE HUMAN FISH.
The Strange AmphIbian From tn

The remarkable amphibian so fully
described in recent press dispatches has
reached town. Captain Robert Beasley,
its custodian, is en- route to the east with
his strange charge, which is attracting
the curious wherever exhibited. 1t
strikingly resembles female human
form in the upper half of it's anatomy.
From the waist downward the extremity
is that of an ordinary fish, showing the
scales, dorsal and caudaI fin. 1t was
captured alive in the Gulf of California
by Mexican fishermen and is now being
exhibited at 112 Second street attracting
crowds of visitors.

Saturday evening the Alumni asso-
citation of the Mitchell high school, as
has been the custom for a number of
years, entertained the graduating class
OF '97, the reception being held at the
home OF Miss Mary Windle. The house
had been profusely decorated with
flowers and presented very pretty
sight indeed with the happy counten-
ances and handsome costumes of the
ladies. There were about so members
present when the usual program was
carried out. Miss Windle, as president
of the alumni association, extended a
sincere welcome to the new members
OF the association and in behalf of the
class Winton L. Richards made the re-
sponse. Miss Mary McGovern PLAYED

ner, while F. I. Windle entertained
the guests with vocal solo, that was
pleasing and Miss Julia Rogers rem.
dered an elocution number in her in
imitable style. Some very dainty re
freshments were served at the close OF
the program. A delicious fruit punch
was served during the evening and this
bowl was presided over by the gradu-
ates for next year. The balance of the
evening was devoted to informal amuse-
ments and from the conversation with
several of the guests, the reception was
one of the most pleasant held il sever
al years. The membership of the
alumni now numbers about l25 and the
graduating classes are growing larger

Loose clothes and downy cushions
bring only negative sort of comfort to
the woman who is suffering with some
disease or arrangement of the organs
distinctly feminine. Some clothes and
some positions make the pain and the
discomfort seem less. Perhaps the
nerves are most affected and this in
turn affects the digestion. Nothing
will ever completely relieve but radi-
cal cure. The start of so-called ''fe-
male complaints" may be very slight
thing indeed. 1t may be that in the
beginning some small hygienic meas
ures would stop the trouble. Certainly
at this time, little bit of the right
medicine would stop it. When the
trouble becomes worse, it is harder to
cure, but still it can be cured. DR..
Pierce's Faverite Prescription will pos
itive.y cure any trouble of this charac.
ter 1t may be absolutely relied upon.
1t affords lasting relief to a woman
whose natural modesty has kept her
from consulting physician.

Love and Politics.

Nebraska furnishes political sensa- tion mixed up with a romance. In Burt county Mir. Laughlin, principal of pub lie, school, was the republican candidate for superintendent of public instruction. His assistant, Miss Thomson, opposed him as the populist candidate.
 The campaign was lively and bitter. The candidates took the stump and de- nounced each other in the most spirit ed fashion. To the amazement of every body, at the very last moment the lady abandoned the race and left her repub- lcan opponent walkover. This was bad enough, but the next day it was announced that they were engaged to be married.
 If such demoralzing episodes become common in states where woman suffrage prevails, it goes without saying that politicians elsewhere will oppose giving the ballot to women. The Nebraska af- fair shows that under such conditions unexpected surprises would always be liable to occur,

A Capital Rule.

AecordiGt to some veteran explorer whose name is not given, certain tribe in Central Africa has a rule compelling every public speaker to stand on one leg while speaking, and he is allowed to speak only so long as he can stand in that position. This rule is the perfec- tion of wisdom. It should be adopted in our legislative and deliberative bodies without delay. The result would be few CT and brefer speeches and the coun- try would be the gainer.
 There is only one other effective way of curtailing public speeches and debates and that is for the newspapers to stop reporting them. Nne-tenths of the men who are always turning loose their floods of eloquence in congress and in the state legislatures talk not in the hope of con- vincing their hearers, but because they expect to see their names and utter ances paraded in the newspapers. In doing this the newsbapers have given men reputations who did not deserve it.
