Mr.. and Mrs. Mitchell are guests at

the rest cure. He has constructed an
out door apartment and is so fond of
fresh air that he invites the snow
drifts in during the heated periods, so
that the temperature will CONCEAL any
prowling microbes, bacilli or chillbalin-
tiles. Speaking of bacill Mr.. Mitchell
says it depends where you live what
you call them. In Paris they are termed
Parasites, in Germany Germacides and
in Ireland microbes. Mr.. and Mrs
Mitchell are accompanied with their
faithful protector and sleuth Ferg.
Ferg's full name is Ferguson, and he
is English, and likewise a bull dog
He is milk white or snow white, if the
snow is not mixed with Nebraska
soils. Ferg has as fine a set of teeth

give up the rich viands and the salu-
brious surroundings of the Pacific for
a walk to Lincoln If Bryan wants
him he says that with all other means
of locomotion cut off he should send
his hot air ship. Mr.. Ogle was seen
to smile twice during the day and
Frederick, during one of the smiles,
stepped up and said, Speaking of
smiles, have one on me-"
T. H. Halstead is still lingering here
although Mrs. H. has telephoned him a
number of times to get home and feed
the stock. But his rich treble voice is
needed in the mannerchor as they sing
