NEED OF REFORMED SALOON

to be permanent in the best possible man
ner.
One License to 500 People.
We furthermore contend that no more
licenses ought to be issued until the pro-
portion is not greater than one for each
500 OF population, so that each Of these
licenses would possess a very great value.
We also contend hat the price paid by
the saloon keeper each year for the privil-
ege of doing business should be reasonable.
We then insist that, in consideration of so
valuable a license, the penalty for the
violation OF law should be mandatory, and
that no discretion should be lodged with
any judge or licensing board.
1T is our idea that for the first con-
viction Of the violation of the law on the
part OF q saloon keeper or Of his employees
in the conduct OF his business. his license
would be suspended for a period of thirty
day. and thai for the second conviction his
license should be absolutely cancelled, and
that he should not again be licensed to
retail liquor in the state"
This. Mr.. Gilmore said, would solve what
is known as the liquor problem in so far
as the sale OF alcoholic beverages is con-
cerned. This problem solved the more i'm
portant problem OF intemperance on the
part of the individual could be taken up.
In conclusion the speaker said: II am
satisfied that the time is 'coming when
the man who becomes intoxicated will be
treated az a criminal and will be punished
with the utmost severity; and 1, further
more, believe that the time is coming
when the people OF this country will give
up and resent what is known as the treat
ing habit. even as the people in Continental
Europe have done"

CIGAR MEN FACE TROUBLE
More of Their wares May he Seised
by Revenue Onicials Because of
Tax Delinquency.

A number of seizures OF cigars have
been made in the Omaha revenue agents
division during the current week for tax
violations and others are likely to follow.
The law requires that cigars weighing less
than three pounds per thousand are SUBJ
ject to a tax OF 81 cents per thousand,
and those weighing over three pounds per
thousand are taxable at 50 per thousand.
The seizures have been made of cigars
weighing over three pounds per thousand,
upon which the 81 cents tax had been
paid only. All such cigars are liable to
seizure.
The fault is attributed to the manufac-
turers OF the cigars, who are liable to
heavy fine for putting them on the market
Dealers handling these short weight cigars
are also liable to the loss of their cigars
through seizure by the government and
will be put to heavy expense.
Only a few seizures nave thus far been
made in Nebraska, but a number of such
seizures have occurred within the last sew
eral days in Iowa and South Dakota.

Constipation Cause.
By Indigestion
Is Cured by Helping the Stomach Do
Its Work AS IL should.

All forms of constipation. bowel or intes-
tinaI trouble owe most OF their origin to the
improper digestion OF food. The bowels
measure 30 feet. The inside walls or SUR
faces are wound tightly about with millions
OF nerves. These nerves sive life and con-
troll millions OF little mouths or suckers
which are supposed to take nourishment
from the food AS it leaves the stomach and
passes along this " foot human canal.
When indigestion. dyspepsia or stomach
trouble occurs, the food being undlgested
passes over these millions of mouths, 1t is
. fermented decsyinE mass and holds no
nourishment as II should.
The little mouths suck it up, impart these
impurities TO the blood. impresnAts the little
nerves with poison ana so the work Of con-
stipa lion and bowel trouble begins.
A natural juice or secretion belongs nor
mally in the little cells and glands along
the mucous membrane of the 30-foot canal
or bowel. When indigestion occurs this
iuics is lacking and so the mass Of
waste matter cannot pass along as It
should and is piled up and caked in the
bowel. thus bringing pain and misery.
After a while the nerves and nerve centers
which give vigor and life TO the bowel be-
come paralized. thus forever prohibiting the
bowel from performing Its natural duties.
Stuart's DYSPEPSIA laplsts' "heh taken
after meals. diEests the food properly even
though the stomach IL sick and It passes to
the bowels nourishment and juices which
help the intestines not only to do their work
at once, but builds them up. restoring vital

Tn. stomach Is the cause, Common sense
ana science are one on this point. You see

$500 in Prizes Awarded

WEUO III tIkUO HUuIu0u
Some time ago we offered to give
5000 in prizes for the best advertise
ments for Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey
and in response received so many sam
pie advertisements that 1t has taken
our Committee several weeks to read
them and make the selections.
The Prizes have been awarded as
follows:
First Prize 800.
to ]. r. Blake of 1141 Myrtle Ave,
Baltimore.
Second Prize $50.
to e. C. Countryman of Ala Dillaye
Bldg, Syracuse.
Third Prize S25.
to w. S. Curdy of 10 Journal Bldg,
Boston.
Fourth Prize $40
to w. ]. Austin of 6 Berwick Park,
I Boston.
Fifth Prize $40.
to j. M. Plunket, of 7 Doane st.,
bOSLOu.
Sixth Prize SIS.
to W. W. Westerly OF 66Sh Fulton
St., Brooklyn.
So far as we know each one of the
prize winners is an amateur artist and
this goes to show what latent ability
we may have stored away in our make
up unknown to ourselves.
The great secret in writing an ad-
vertisement Is In knowing what you
are writing about, then make a plain
statement of facts the same as il you
were telling a friend of some event.
TO write a good advertisement
about Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey a
person should know the effect it has
on nervous and rundown cases, and
in cases of cold, bronchitis and lung
trouble.
One can then realize the strength
ening effect It has on body, brain and
nerve, and the aid IL gives to the vital
forces. thus enabling a person to write
with a clear mind a concise forceful
argument.
We are always ready to purchase at
what II is worth any good idea or ad-
vertisement that is sent us by any
readers OF this paper. Duffy Malt

HERMAN, Neb., Jan. H.-(Speciai.)-
About four months ago ]. Thielfoldt, a
farmer living nine miles west OF heSe. ran
a sewing needle into his thigh while asleep
during the night. A short time ago a sore
began to form on the opposite side of his
leg from where the needle entered. The
sore kept getting continually worse until
il was about the size OF a hens egg.
After examining the sore a physician ex-
tracted a rusty needle. The needle had
worked its way clear through the mans
leg.
Ever since the night the needle pierced
his leg Mr.. Thielfoldt thought there was a
silver in his leg, although he could see
nothing. The only time he felt II was when
he ran or moved quickly. Mr.. Thieifoldt
has no knowledge of the time the needle
entered his leg. as It did not awaken him
or cause him pain. There was nc possibility
of the needle having entered his leg at any
time except at night. 1t is thought that
the needle was stuck INTO the bed by the
children.

APPLE BLOSSOMS.

Fairies, clad in pink and white,
Dressing all the trees,
Seeming all the atmosphere,
Calling forth the bees;
Decking all the orchard boughs,
In the garb of spring
Apple blossoms, beautiful,
| your praises sing.
Poets long ago have sung
Praises to you, rare,
Telling of your sweet perfume,
And your beauties fair;
Stars have shone for ages, too,
In the vault Of night;
Still a taper yet may glow
With an honest light.
Therefore [ may sing to you,
Apple blossoms sweet,
For the praise Of honest hearts
Is forever meet:
Yet-this is "a secret though,
And your truth will test
| ann writing, most, to please
Her [ love the best.
She is apple blossom mad,
Works them into cloth,
Making eyelets here and there,
Like lady moth;
And she would not let me rest
Nothing else would do
Therefore [ have done my best,
Writing praise to you.

more SO IN the unconscious impulse it
gives to multiplicity Of other ques-
lions. Seeking to dismiss the matter
with few apparently sensible words,
it opens UP a very wide field for
thought:
Keep the Girls in the Country
Homes.
"Much has been said and written in
the way Of advice to keep the boys
on the farm, and little thought has
been given to the girls. Yet it is a
fact that not only to the boys but
to the girls also the city is an attrac-
ton that draws, and in every city
may not only be found boys who have
left the old homestead in the country
with it's strong shelter, but also girls.
"It is risky enough for the young
man to come to the city, a stranger.
Unacquainted with city ways he is
cruelty beset by the many tempta-
tions which in alluring form will
meet him, and before which so many
fall. But tenfold worse is it for
girls. A boy may make misstep
and retrace it; for girl this is al
most impossible. One false step will
almost surely lead to others until the
fatal line is passed beyond which a
happy future is not to be found.
"Fathers and mothers in their coun-
try homes may not realize this. They
may not know the burden of care that
rests on the hearts of parents in the
