A PUBLIC BENEFIT
Great Bend People Greatly In
terested in the Generous Of
fer of The Hooper Drug Co.

The people have already dem
OnStrated that they would rath-
er trust a man who is natural
ly honest than one who is hon
est only because he had to be.
The Hooper Drug Co. have a
firmly established reputation for
square dealing and sterling hon
esty. When they told the people
that Rexall Remedies are the
pureSt and most dependable med
icines that it is possible for mod
ern science to produce, and that
they would tell the public what
each one of these 300 or more
remedies contained, and that they
sold Rexall Remedies on their
personal guarantee that they
would give entire satisfaction or
they would not cost the user q
single cent, they were believed.
Ever since this announcement
the Hooper Drug Co. store has
been largely ratronized by peo-
pie buying Et1all Remedies, all
of which proves that this store
has the confidence of the peo-
pie and that honesty is the best
policy.
There is no "cure-all" among
the Rexall Remedies. There are
different AMI separate medicines,
each one devised for a certain
human ailment or a class Of all
ments closely allied. For in
stance Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets
are recOmmeno ed for the positive
relief of stomach irritation, in
digestion, flatulency and dySpep-
STA. They are rich in Bismuth-
Subnitrate, Pepsin and Carmina-
tives. They are prepared by
special processes which perfect
and enhance the great remedial
value of these well-known medic
inal agents. This remedy sells
for Is cents, so cents, and $1.0OI
per package. Every one suffer-
ing from stomach disorder should
try Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets, in
asmuch as they cost nothing if
they do not satisfy.
Remember, the Hooper Drug
Co. store is the only store in
Great Bend where these remedies
may be obtained, and every one
in need of medicine is urged to
investigate and take advantage
Of the frank and generous man
ner in which they are sold.

It isn't so difficult to strength
en- a weak stomach if one goes at
it correctly. And this is true OF
the Heart and Kidneys. The old
fashioned way of dosing the stOm
ach or stimulating the Heart or
Kidneys is surely wrong. DR..
Shoop first pointed out this error
"Go to the weak or ailing
nerves of these organs, said he.
Each inside organ has its control
ling or inside nerve" When
these nerves fail then those or

tai truth is leading druggists ev-
erywhere to dispense and recon-
mend DR.. Shops Restorative. A

The Sewer system'

ELff-r F4ErN~~
At q special meeting of the
City Council last Friday evening
an ordinance providing for a
sewer system was passed. The
principal pointsefsthe ordinance
are as follows;
In making plans for the sewer
system it was decided to have
two main trunk lines, designat-
ed as the North Trunk Line and
South Trunk Line, the North
Trunk Line begins at the corner
of Main and 18th street, at the
Fankhauser barn and runs east
to the city limits on Frey street.
Here it runs south a half block
and then southeast for about ESQ
feet, to the septic tank where it
is joined by the South Trunk
lane. :;
The South Trunk Line com.
mences in the west part of town
on Lakin or 18th street, at The
alley between. Madison and Mon
roe streets. This alley is just two
blocks south of the hospital. The
line runs east tt the school build.
ing on Washington street and
then goes one block south and
then straight east on 18th to the
alley between Williams and
Stone streets, at the Delaplane
home, south one block to 18th
street and then straight east to
the city limits at Frey street
about 300 feet further east where
it turns. to the northeast anC
about 1000 feet further on joins
the other trunk line at the Septic
tank reservoir.
The septic tank is located al
most. straight east on Park aven
ne a few blocks beyond the city
, limits.
The town has been divided in.
TO three sewer districts which
will be known by number. Parts
of the town not now included in
the districts may be added later
In locating these districts it is
we'll to remember that the mum
bered streets, End, 9rd, 4th, etc.
commence at the river, and are
fine streets running east and west
q Lakin avenue is known as 18th
and Broadway as 18th street
. So it will be seen that the high.
er numbers are on the north side
, OF town. The streets running
north and south, commencing
with Frey street, which is the
eastern edge of the city from
10th street north, and which
runs past the east side school
building are Frey, Heller, Hub
bard, Holland, Baker, Kansas av.
enue, Main, Williams, Stone,
Morton, Morphy, Odell, Washing
ton, Adams, Jefferson, Madison,
Monroe, Jackson. The farther.
most sewer lateral is located on
jackson street and runs past the
Henry Harper residence and be.
tween the residences of E. c.
Cole and A. II. Clancy to the
street north, 18th street. TIT

ORIGINAL SAMMlS MAN ON
HIS WAY HOME TO OTTUMWA
Tom Phillips, who Helped
Elect the Exalted Ruler of All
the EIks.

T. ]. Phillips. mayor OF Ottumwa, Ia
and one of the delegates to the recent con-
vention of Elks at Los Angeles, passed
through Omaha yesterday afternoon on his
way home from the coast. He said j. U.
Sammis OF LeMars was made grand ex-
cited ruler of the Elks' mainly through the
work of lodge No. "a of Ottumwa.
The lodge Of our city did the work for
Sammis,' said Mayor Phillips at the Bur
lington station. I'VE stirred up the senti-
ment for him in Iowa and then kept busy
when we got to Los Angeles. We won
over several punches who, when they went
to the convention, were In favor Of Garry
Hermann OF Cincinnati.
There is no truth in the report that
there was considerable ill-feeling over the
election of Sammis. The Elks are too good
fellows to get sore when they are beaten,
After the convention the men who had
worked against Sammis said they thought
he would make one Of the best rulers the
Elks have ever had"
