SNOW IN BOY0 COUNTY
Six Inches Deep-Farmers are Well
Fixed in Every Way.

Butte, Neb., Feb. 2.-Editor News:
Boyd county is covered with six inches
of snow but there has been no blizzard
yet. Cattle do not have to be fed in
the barns as they run in the corn
stalks. Farmers in Boyd county are
well fixed, as they raise forty to sixty
five bushels of corn to the acre; fifty
to sixty bushels of oats, eight to egh-
teen of wheat; all have good horses,
so you see there is nothing wrong with
Boyd county. NJ Weisser.

Lincoln, Neb., Feb. Especial to
The News Nebraska politicians, ed.
itors and Legislators are at sea over
the primary proposition.
RefOrmers are urging a state wide
primary system sold to be based on the
Wisconsin primary law. The bill con.
templates primary at which all par
tisans are allowed to participate.
There is no restriction as to the vot-
ing. blanket ballot is handed to
the voter, no questions are asked and
he votes just as he would under the
Australian ballot law.
The opponents of the statewide sys.
TEN assert that better system would
be to nominate judges, legislators, SEN
ators and members of congress by pr-
mary while delegates would be named
at primary and sent to the state con-
the party platform could be designat-
ed
1t is charged that number of ed
itors have lined up" behind the state
wide primary scheme. 1t is asserted
that there is a gentleman agree
ment" and the editors are after polite
al supremacy in the state. The devo-
tees OF the system retort that the rail-
roads are opposing the direct primary
and want a mild and useless bill
passed by the legislature.

Child Labor Law.

hours of labor Of children between the
ages of IA and 16 from a. m. to Z

of child labor is allowed in but few
instances and these must be approved
by the proper authorities. AS the bill
stands at present it forbits the en-
ployment of boys by the telegraph
companies as messengers and the de.
livery systems of the morning papers
will be seriously crippled. From
Nemaha county comes the complaint
that the local canning enterprises will
be crippled. At the same time the
critics Of the measure claim that the
bill should be passed with slight
amendments. 1t is also suggested that

PARIS FOND OF HORSE.
Said to Have Eaten 10000 Horses Last
Year Because Beef Is Dear.

The consumption of horse meat for
food has greatly increased in France
since the present increase in the price
of foodstuffs set in. a Partisan news
paper says that out of 2S,937 horses sold
ct the market on the Boulevard de 'Hos-
pital, Paris, in 1906, 22,792, or about so
per cent, went direct to the Vanguard
abattoir, not to speak of hundreds of
horses that were taken there directly.
1t is estimated that last year Paris
ate altogether 10000 horses or more than
22,00O,O0O pounds Of horsehesh. In 1899
the consumption was less than 10000
600 pounds.
Besides the low price there has been
q demand for horse meat because it is
supposed to be wholesome in cases of
tuberculosis and tuberculous tendency.
Many people regard it as in general more
healthful than beef. Its alimentary val
ue is regarded as much lower than that
of beef, and it is said to be much more
liable to produce toxic effects if the ami
nal was not in prime condition when
slaughtered or if the meat has been kept
long.

ULTIMATE FATE OF FISH.
They Never Die Natural Death, Says
an Observant Fisherman

'Fish never die natural DEATH" said
an old fisherman who has observed as
he fshed. eff they did bodies of dead
fish would be floating on the surface of
the water about all the while, because
such bodies if unmolested would have
to float
II mean, of course, fish in nature new
er die a natural death, not fish in cap
tivity. And perhaps it should not be
called natural death that fish in cap
tivity die. Their environment induces
mortality that fish in their native habitat
would escape, and these causes might
be properly classed as among the acct
dents that carry the captive fish off.
IF fish in their native element were
never molested | believe they would new
er die. If they had sufficient food, which
would be. impossible if they no longer
preyed On one another, there would be no
reason for their dying. 1t was to pre-
vent such uninterrupted tenure Of life
that all fish were made tiercely preda-
tory, if not remorselessly cannibalistic,
as many kinds are.
"a fsh's life is a constantly strenuous
one and one entirely selfish. a fish lives
only to eat and to avoid being eaten"

WENT TO TEA
And 1t Wound Her Bobbin.

Tea drinking frequently affects peo-
pie as badly as coffee. A lady in Sails

to abandon the use OF coffee good
many years ago. because it threatened
to ruin her health and that she went
over to tea drinking, but finally, she
had dyspepsia so bad that she had lost
twenty-five pounds and ne food seemed
to agrta with her.
She further says: AT this time l
was induced to take up the famous
food drink, Postum, and was so Mueh
pleased with the results that l have
never been without it since. com
menced to improve at once, regainea

II know Postum to be good, pure and

it all is that it is satisfying and won

MRS. SADIE ABBOTT

Women for the most part spend
their lives at home, and it is these
women who are willing and ambitious
that their homes shall be kept neat
and pretty, their children we'll dressed
and tidy, who do their own cooking,
sweeping, busting and often washing,
ironing and sewing for the entire
family, who call for our sympathy.
Truly the work of such a woman
is never done" and is it any wonder
that she breaks down at the end of a
few years, the back begins to ache,
there is a displacement, inflammation
or liberation of the abdominal organs,
a female weakness is brought on, and
the struggle of that wife and mother
to continue her duties is pitiful.
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, made from native roots
and herbs, is the exact medicine a
woman needs whose strength is over
taxed. It keeps the feminine organs
in strong and healthy condition.
In preparing for childbirth and re-
cuperating therefrom it is most eff
Gent. It carries a woman safely
through the change of life and in
making her strong and well assists
her to be a good wife and mother.
Mrs. Sadie Abbott, of Jeannette,
Pa, writes
Dear Mrs. Pinkham-

Wedding Innovations.
Bird of Paradise.

Bird of Paradise.
Many novelties are introduced into
weddings this year. One bride OF the
week had her veil of old point lace-a
family heirloom-caught by a bird of
paradise the long tail feathers sweeping
down over the side Of the coiffeur.
Decollete Bridal Gowns.
Another innovation is the appearance
of decolete at day weddings. The gown
of the aforementioned bride was cut into
a Dutch neck. not very low, but still a
far cry from the high-necked gowns that
have been worn. The square-cut Dutch
neck by the way, is to be one of the
most favored styles of the summer.
Garden Bouquets.
Old-fashioned round bouquets, edged
with a frilling of lace paper, have re-
turned to favor. Several brides of this
spring have carried these stiff round bOu-
quets instead of the customary shower
variety. In one instance the bouquet wa
made up of varied old-fashiOned flowers.
At another wedding it was of white gar
denias tightly massed, while those of the
bridesmaids were of pink hydrangeas,
tightly massed and edged with the paper
lace frills.
A Tulle Canopy.
One bride received under a canopy of
white tulle, decorated with a tracery OF
maidenhair fern-an arrangement which
proved charmingly effective.
Silver Embroideries.
The traditional sweet simplicity of
bridal gown is a little in the background.
Elaborate silver and even gold embroid-
cries are used, and one wedding dress, III
addition to embroidery in silver threads
on the white satin texture had court
train of glittering cloth of silver.
