The boys of the shops are
spending the day out of town,
that is, a large majority of
them are. This is the opening
day of the Council Bluffs street
fair, and then there is a big
Labor Day program being car
ried out at the lake. The town
had rather a deserted air today,
but we certainly do not blame
those who are able to take a
day off, especially such nice
day as this.

How Not To Live.
By the Doctor.

Fully three-fourths of the
people who come under my care
for treatment are personally re-
sponsible for their illness. They
have lived too fast. Men at
tempt to acquire fortunes in a
few years which should require
a lifetime of honest business
methods to accumulate. They
"burn the candle at both ends"
After working like slaves du-
ring the day they spend the
good part of the night in drink
ing, smoking and dining.
Women in their efforts to
comply with the demands of So
ciety overtax their nervous sys-
tenn and resort to stimulants,
narcotics, or hypnotics.
Our mode of life is all wrong.
We are in one great procession
of hustling, rustling men and
women, who are rushing rapid
ly towards confirmed invalid
ism or premature death. A well
known artist thus speaks of the
hustle and push OF the nine.
tecnth century life: "Man's
business requires haste. The av.
erage business man and profes-
slonal man eats in a hurry and
gets dyspepsia. He walks in a
hurry and gets apoplexy. He
talks in hurry and gets the lie
He does business in a hurry, and
becomes a bankrupt. He votes
In a hurry and produces corrup-
ton. He marries in a hurry
and gets a divorce. He
trains his children in a hurry
and developes spendthrifts ane
criminals. He gets religion il
a hurry and forgets it in a great
hurry. He makes his will in /;
hurry, and leaves legal con
test. He dies in hurry anc
goes to the devil. And his tribe
steadily increases" Journal OF
Public Health.

1t is said in the local railroad
yards that there have been
some 100 green firemen hired
this year due to the increased
number of engines put on west

lines west of the river use a
great many engines during the
construction period. The Wy
oming & North Western rail
road now has it's regularly as

Saturday demonstrated one
thing that has been thought
impossible in this town. The
Racket store was so crowded
just after 100 o'clock that it
was impossible to move and
there were many women who
could not get in the store at all.
The occasion for this was due
to the fact that Mr.. Abrams
had advertised sale, stating
that every school boy or girl
would receive a tablet with
every purchase. Also stated
that he would sell graniteware
at 10 cents per piece, only one
pie &c to a customer. The
women took advantage of this
offer and fiocked to the Racket
store. There is only one way
to get the people out and get
them interested in their home
town for bargains. is to give
them genuine bargains. We
hope others will take a cue
from Mr.. Abrams and see that
they make their store the head
quarters for shoppers on Satur-
day afternoons.
r. H. Harris returned last

We thought we were smart
the other morning when we
went to breakfast at $50, to
put a slip of paper in a certain
mans hat which read like this:
You are a lazy cuss" and signed
it "Hoyle." Imagine our sur
prise at noon to find the follow
ing under our plate:

As Ii Will Be.

! The Clarinda Democrat says
Of the chautauqua in that city:
i The net surplus from this
years assembly, above the $500
expended for improvements, is
1901, which added to the prev
ious fund swells the amount or
hand to $3,O27. There were
seventeen more shares sold
(which now reaches the even
one hundred mark. The mat
| ter of needed improvements for
next year was also discussed.
If our citizens desire to make
our chautauqua a success, let
them, like Page county, CON-
mence advertising in time to
give the people of Harrison
county time to make their
arrangements to be on hand.
Don't fear to use a little print
er's ink and by so doing increase
the finances of the society.
Secure good speakers and then
let the people in time know
just who is to be with us.
There is no other merchant
disc under the sun on which
so many people get fooled and
OH which it is as easy to fool
people as on steel ranges.
The PenInSular has stood the
longest test of any range be-
ing sold by any of the dealers
in Mo. Valley. There is not
a dealer in the city but what
has passed up their would=Ee
better ranges and tried tc
find but failed to get a range
that could put the PeninSulaf
out of business, and yet We
still sell the Peninsular range.

COL. J. W. BUBB CHOSEN.
VIII Fill Vacancy Originally Created
by Gen. Carr's Retirement.

One of the most spirited contests In the
history of the army for place has been set
tied by the selection of Col. John w. Bubb
Of the 18th Infantry for appointment as
brigadier general in the United States army,
to fill vacancy originally created by the
retirement of Gen. Carr. 1t has been ru-
mored for some time past that Junior Off
Ger was to be promoted to this position, and
army circles were greatly disturbed.
Col. Bubb is from Pennsylvania, and en-
tered the military service as a private at
the outbreak of the civil war In 1861 sin
guiarly enough, his first service being in
the veteran regiment which he now COM
mands. He was regularly promoted through
the various grades of the army, re-entering
his old regiment as colonel of the 18th In
fantry August H. 1901. He was born April
26, 1913 so he must retire on account of age
in 1907.
But Col Bulbs promotion will be pre-
ceded by the promotion of four lieutenant
colonies to the rank of brgadier general
conditioned upon their immediate retire
ment They are L. W. Cook, 25th Infantry
Joseph M Calm. Artillery Corps; H r.
Iurrlii medical department and Crosby p

could not In the ordinary course ever reach
the grade of brigadier general before re-
tirement. There are two other civil war
veterans of the grade of lieutenant colonel,
out these may still become brigadier gem
