How About II, Wichita.

Several of our local fans, in CONVEX.
Sation with followers Of base ball at
Wichita Sunday, say there is first
class prospect Of working up a game

Wichita play Sunday are confident
that they will have to play better ball
than they did that day or we can

great deal more. Great Bend and

LINE up.

Stand up for the country in which
you live. A few years ago you did
not think so much OF it, aud from the
crops it brought fourth you did not
seem to care whether you stayed here
or not.
But now you like it because it
yields well, the land is worth more,
the crops are larger, homes finer and
yards and premises more beautiful,
so we can all bejoyful now.
But ye old ones and young ones
take heed of the past and prepare for
the future, so when crops are poor
you can still enjoy life more pleasantly
and .restfully.
Buy now what ye can well afford to
buy, and what you need'to make the
home pleasant. Buy plentifully. but
not extravigantly.
Buy some tables and chairs, couches
and carpets, curtains, rugs and. beds;
wall paper and pictures. Make home
happy this winter by putting into it
those things you have often wanted,
viz: Garland stove, the Wonder or
Ocean Wave washer, knives and forks,
dishes, and get some Lincoln & Sewell
paints. -
No longer ride in the lumber wagon
jolting the life out Of you when you
can get the Moon Bros. buggies,
carriages and spring wagons:
Put a clock on the shelf apd a
watch in each member Of your family's
pocket. Make yourselves happy sOw
while you can, and order for your
house a Fisher or Ellington piano, a
Farand or Putnam organ; a lightning
rod on your house and barn-none Of
which yeu will ever regret, and all Of
which VIII give you safety, comfort

GERM DISEASES or SUMMER.
No One Need Fear Sickness II Nj o-na
Is Used,

People with strong stomachs and
natural digestion are ordinarily not
subject to bowel troubles, diarrhOea.
and other germ diseases that are so
common and dangerous in the simmer
months.
A Mona tablet taken before each
meal will give such health aud
strength to the weakest stomach that
the whole system will become strong
and well, and so clean and sweet that
there will be no chance for disease
germs to become effective.
A great many people imagine that
their headaches, dizziness, heart burn,
or general dependency and weakness
is a.sign Of fatal illness, when the
whole trouble is the direct result Of a
weak stomach and imperfect digestion.
A50 cent box Of Mona tablets
will show by the great gain in health
that the stomach is the cause Of the
poor health, and that Mi o-na is the
only remedy that will drive out all
weakness, debility and disease
Mona IS So nearly ;nfallible in
curing the diseases resulting from a
weakened stomach, excepting cancer
of the stomach, that Hooper Drug
Co. guarantee to refund the money
should the remedy not give perfect
satisfaction.

not expected home until sometime in
June. The new members having no
practical knowledge of the business
in hand, preferred to wait until the
president returns and hence refused
to organize for business. This gave
rise to great amount of whining,
knocking, grumbling, fault finding and
lying, the press taking the lead. All
sorts OF talk and rumors of war were
put in circulation. We heard that
there is a scheme to GUST President
Kerr from his position, so that the
college might be moved to Salt Lake,
and made a part of the Republican
state machine, and that the scheme is
aided by a sprinllling of very promi.
'nent Democrats; that the plan was
concocted by the university people,
backed up by Senator Smoot, Gov
ernor Cutler and the church. This and
whole lot of similar rot was buzzing
in cur ears, and given us to read late
and early for several days and now
what is there to it? Absolutely moth
ing. True, there has been some fric-
ton in the faculty, but what has that
to dc with political machines, with
Smoot, Cutler or with the church?
My honest opinion is that the church
or its leaders have never troubled
their minds about the A. G.. u. If they
have, it has been for its advancement.
| do not believe that any of our politi-
cal parties in the state have done or
will do anything to the detriment of
any of our state institutions, and | be-
lieve furthermore that Smoot and Cut
Ter will do all in their power to main
tain and support the A. G.. u. and every
other institution established and main
tanned by public funds within the con
fines of the state. We up here in the
north are too apt to jump at conclu
sions. We are as great a pack of ca.
lamity howlers as you can find on any
hundred square miles this side of AT
RIGA. Let us be calm and considerate,
reason together, abolish Tribune tao
tics" don't fly off the handle at the
least appearance of friction, don't be-
lieve that all the leading citizens OF
the state outside of this county are
against us, and the great institution on
the hill, for it is all bosh. The A. G. u.
will remain on the hill east of Logan
until it crumbles to pieces of old age,
and it will not suffer either, IL per-
chance some day the lawmakers of our
commonwealth see fit to place the w..
of u and A. G. u. under one head.
