BETTER THAN PILLS.

The question has been asked,
"In what way are Chamberlain S
Stomach & Liver Tablets superior
~ n;Ilsp" Our answer is: They
are easier and more pleasant to
take. more mild and gentle in
effect and more reliable as they
can always be depended upon.
Then they will clease and invig-
crate the stomach and leave the
bowels in a natural condition,
while pills are more harsh in
aHoct and their use is often fol-
lowed by constipation. For sale

Nebraska Editor.

J. F. Smith, editor of the

has been spending several days
in the city. He paints eastern
Nebraska in rosy colors. but
while he was talking the cool
breeze that was swirling along
the streets of the city, came
directed from his adopted town
where they were icy cold. His
wheat song and dance showed
that his instincts were still
those of the realestate man, for
the breeze referred to had blown
from / to J of the 1902 crop of

The Valley Of Unrest.

This is the valley of sweet unrest,
Where we dream the dreams that we love
the best,
Meath dying sun in darkening west;
And after the dreams
We make pain,
And pray to God
To dream again
In the dim, deep valley of sweet unrest!
This is the valley of sweet unrest:
The child, in dream, seeks the mothers
breast,
And the lips OF love to our lips are
pressed.
And we wake and weep
That the dreams are vain,
And cry to God
To dream again
In the desol ate valley of sweet unrest!
Alas, for the valley of sweet unrest!
To live for adream in dream unblest-
The locks OF Love by dream caressed!
Never the dew
Of the bloom to drain,
Famished for sunlight
And starved for rain,
With that sigh of Eternity-"God
knows best!'

Tie President is a great man
to investigate; he rushed his
men to the spot and finds out
all he can, which ordinarily is
not much. He is at present en-
gagged in finding out what the
Beef Trust is doing, and talks
as if some of the men interested
may land in the penitentiary.
The result will be the same, as
IN the railroad merger case, all
talk. His Efforts are for the
benefit of the public and not
to stop the trusts. The Attor-
ney General is the greatest
Trust lawyer in the country
and if the President is really in
earnest he could play havoc
with all of them but results do
not come. Generally a visit
from Morgan or some of the
leaders in the Trusts to Wash
ington is the only result thr
people ever see of the Presi-
dents orders to bust trusts.
Trusts are now known as Grand
Industrial Combinations and
they evidently have come to
stay unit ess the people can find
