HINTS roR HOT WEATHER.
Precautionary Measures DcN
signed to Avert
New York Herald.

HAhhNU " avn pANA
New York Herald.
At this season. when the appearance OF
the hot wave is to be expected at any time.
the prostrations which are liable to follow
in it's wake will remind all within reach
Of Its bsneful influences OF the necessity OF
certain precautionary measures that may
tend to lessen a~fniction and suffering and
possibly prevent actual death. Since with
the majority OF our people II is impossible
to take advantage OF cool breezes else
where there are wisdom and philosophy In
making the most OF the forced and In
evitable condition Of diseomforting and
threatening environments. The only thing
left is for each one to best prepare him
self to resist such influences Of heat and
humidity as of themselves cannot be altered
or escaped.
The questions OF comparative safety
against sunstroke and heat exhaustion re-
solve themselves into avoidance OF undue
exposure to direct solar rays, abstinence
from alcoholic stimulation, the use OF
plain food and tho wearing of proper
clothing. II Is we'll known that the vic
Tins Of exhaustion are those that defy these
rules. The man who lives moderately,
avoiding all excuses. is tho one who
usually escapes.
1t stands to reason that the workingman

evident that he does not require so much
hearty food in summer as in the colder
months. Even for him meat is not neces-
sary more than once daily. He and every
other toiler can obtain all extra susie
nance from cereals, eggs, milk. vegetables
and fruits. The midday meal should be
the substantial one, with a light breakfast
and supper. II a stimulant is needed a
cup of coffee will answer all purposes. and
there is no healthy thirst that plain, cool
water cannot assuage. Besides this, the
latter helps all the eliminative processes
OF kidneys and skin and thus contributes to
the necessary equilibrium of natural body
temperature. The exact contrary is the
case when malt or spirituous liquors are
imbibed, as thus depuration ia positively
hindered rather than judiciously assisted.
This fact is we'll proven by the number
Of intoxicated persons who are such COM
mon victims to heat apoplexy.

Congressman Cousins has just or
dered a competitive examination for
aspirants to appointment to West
Point c%adetships in the Fifth Iowa dis
trict. Which reminds us of the fact
that Congressman Mercer has treated
his appointments to West Point and An
napolis as personal perquisites, to be
traded for political support. Why
should not the ons of poor men and
the sons of men who have 40 political
pull have the same chance in Mr.. Mer-

Major Pruden used to. The major was IN
imitable. The president could not have
produced a deeper impression on the gal
leries than did Major Pruden when. after
entering the chamber he stood at the head
of the main aisle and bowed with the grace
and ease Of a cavalier.
NJ Barnes does not attempt to bow. His
body performs a slight contortion and that
is all. Barnes is younger than was Major
Pruden. II he continues in his present
place for a sufncient number OF years he
may acquire the grsces which made the
major the most remarkable messenger who
ever carried communications from the

When the railroad tax bureau gets
through issuing bulletins it may be able
to explain why the east half Of the
Union Pacific bridge is taxed $4,000 in
Iowa and the west half of the bridge is
listed for only $1,63O in Nebraska. Is
the discrepancy due to the difference
per capita in the assessed valuation of
Council Bluffs and Omaha or is 1t due
to involuntary contraction in the value
Of bridge materials and labor on this
side of the river?

A Prospect TINT Thrills.
Louisville Courier journal.

Louisville Courier-Journal.
Nothing at all comes out about crops
nowadays that is not good. The wheat
harvest has begun in the southwest and
Nebraska and will have the best yield In
history. How promising the wheat n
corn news is can be seen by watching the
steady s~hrinkage Of prices in the option
markets Notwithstanding the small stocks
of grain on hands. AS for cotton, 1t is
making the best record SO far for many
years. II the signs of early summer count
for anything there will be bursting barns
and warehouses and plenty Of things to eat
and wear after next fall.

1t is gratifying to note that both
Senator Willard and Senator Dietrich
are recorded voting against shelving the
proposed constitutional amendment for
the election of United States senators
by direct popular vote. The Legislature
that elevated Nebraska's two senators
to their positions declared squarely in
favor of the election of senators by
direct vote of the people and in this it
without question reflected the almost
unanimous sentiment Of our people.

Tyranny's Latest Freak.
New York Tribune.

Some OF the railroad companies are for
bidding their employees to wear red neck
ties. Evidently they fear that an engineer
or a fireman, a station agent or a switch
man, a conductor or a brakeman. or even
a dealer out OF transfer slips, who may be
adventurous enough to deck himself In
crimson or scarlet, in magenta or softer
inc, may find the temptation to paint the
town red become Irresistible now and then.
These sumptuary ukases, trades and pro-
nunciamentos issued by great corporations
employing thousands OF men are interesting
things to study.

In reply TO a recent invitation to run for
governor of Nebraska Mr.. Bryan modestly
declined, saying that "he could accomplish
more in national politics than he could
in state politics." Some suspicious indi-
vidual sees In these words an intimation
that he wants a third nomination as presi-
dent. Perhaps he does. AS long as there
has to be dmmolation, why not be immo-
lated on a golden altar in the sight Of mil
lions rather than be buried obscurely in
Nebraska?

guests of Miss Lessie Shealy one
afternoon recently.
We are sorry to learn that Mr.. O..

covery.

was summoned as juror.
The scent of the orange blossoms

they will soon bloom now.

was bitten by a snake and We are
glad to know that he is now recover
ing.
The farmers are now busy gather
ing peavines and corn, and I am glad
to say that these crops are certainly
fine, although cotton is not what it
was expected to be in this section.
Some of our Rocky Greek farmers
are very much agitated at the rainy
weather, though, dear farmer, it was
very nice on those oats which you
have sown.
It seems that some of our boys are
very much delighted in going o'pos-
sum hunting, so boys let me tell you
now when the first day of November
comes I am going to take visit and
will retire until next summer. II

Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers' never thought Of using
anything else for Indigestion or Bill
BUSINESS. Doctors were scarce, and
they seldom heard of Appendicitis,
Nervous Prostration or Heart failure,
etc. They used August Flower to
clean out the system and stop fer
mentation of undigested food, regu.
late the action of the liver, stimulate
the nervous and organic action of
the system, and that is all they took
when feeling dull and bad with head
aches and other aches. You only
need q few doses of Green's August
Flower, in liquid form, to make you
satisfied there is nothing serious the
matter with you. You can get this
reliable remedy at Kaufmann's Drug
Store.
