The History of Grin.

The history of grip" or influenza,
can only be traced back, with any GER
tainty, for 800 years. Perhaps its home
is in Russia. 1t retains certain broad
characteristics which make 1t recog-
nizable even under such odd names as
the gentle correction" and the new
delight" A curious description of 1t
under the name Of "coqueluche" IL
found in the diary Of Pierre de LES
toile in the time Of Henry III Of
France, as follows:
''The coqueluche at Paris, year 1880.
From the I'd day to the 9Th day Of
June there fell sick at Paris 10000
persons of an illness having the form
of rheum or catarrh, which they call
the 'coqueluche.' This illness seizes
you with a pain in the head, stomach
and loins and a lassitude throughout
the body, and it prosecuted the whole
kingdom of France while the year last
ed, so that once having come hardly
anybody in a town or village or house
escaped.
"The best remedy the doctors found
was to make the sick abstain from
wine To some they ordered bleeding
and rhubarb, for others cassia, and
finally they found it best to keep the
sick in bed and allow them little to eat
and drink. They say at Paris that OF
this 'coqueluche' there were dead at
Rome, in less than three months, more
than 10000 persons"

cD>-DD,1 Among the stores of this city
none present a more attracth e
STOKE display nor is more popular
than tnat of Mr.. NJ. j. FabriciuS, on the south
side of Lower Broadway. This establishment
which was started the fourth of last September
has always been the highest standard in the
quality, quantity and style OF goods, and the an
rangements. The store is conveniently located
while the accommodations for the large stock
are ample and the facilities for attending to
the wants of customers, are the very best.
Everything cOmprehended under the general
heads OF dry goods, groceries, queensware and
gents furnishing goods can be found here and
are equal to any TO be found in the large cities.
In fact, this establishment, as conducted by Mr..
Fabricius is looked upon as one of the most
substantial and reliable business houses of this
section. We take pleasure in recommending it
to those in need OF goods in the above lines,
knowing full well that they will receive just and
fair treatment, and get the best goods at the
lowest possible prices. Mr.. Fabricius has the
confidence and esteem of the entire community
and is numbered among the leading and most
worthy citizens of Audubon.

CORN EXCHANGE BANK.

Audubon county is fortunate in the sound
character of its numerous banking institutions.
Perhaps no one element in a business commun-
ity contributes so largely to solid and perma-
nent prosperity as correct and conservative
bankingmethOdS. In a city or town where the
banks are conducted carefully, while at The
same time giving the merchants all the CO.
operation consistent with salty, it will inyar-
iably be found that failures are few and bust
ness is conducted on proper lines. Reckless
banking begets reckless business generally.
The fact, therefore, that Audubon is free from
trade calamticS and that commerce, following
the recent hard times is on sound footing,
speaks volumes for the banks. Among the
banks Of this county none rank higher as a
financial institution, both on account OF Its
own merits and the individual responsibility OF
its stockholders than the Corn Exchange bank,
Lois 6. Stuart, president, and II. A. Arnold,
cashier. Mr.. Arnold is regarded as most
successful fnanceT, and he has been in an
official capacity ever since the banks organ
iZatiOn which was in 1894.

Doesn't Travel For Fun.

Far from being the great autocrat,
the arbiter of things of magnitude, the
president Of a railway system, be it
great or small, is a dealer in trifies,
with a consideration for everything.
Every accident, large or small; every
occurrence by which the road Is to lose
dollar or to make dollar, comes to
the notice of the president. The sue
cessful head Of a railroad is the one
who considers the details. He is the
man who makes the profits, and he Is
the man who has to face the music at
the directors meeting.
When you see the bright, smooth
running travelling palaces of the rail-
way president trailing along behind
the long string of passenger coaches,
you can be safe in the opinion that the
occupant has not the softest snap on
earth. You can also rest assured that
If he is a success in his sphere he Is
not travelling for fun.-Omaha World
