In using the broiler the housekeep- CT often is troubled by the fat drip pings catching fire, causing confusion and delay, not to mention injury to steak To overcome this take one of the oven shelves and slide in, in place of broiler, on which place meat. Set regular broiler or pan near the bot tom of broiling oven, hereby catching the grease. and yet removing it to safe distance.

ECZEMA LODGES IN THE SKIN.

of WintcrUrecn Compound.

For many years eczema was sup
posed to be n blood disease and was
enormously treated as such, but now

zema is only a skin disease and must
be cured through the skin. The emf

BUTHWEG & HANSEN
Small Checks Not Illegal

A few weeks ago we published an
item sent out from Washington claim
ing that after January 1, 1910 all checks
issued for sums under one dollar would
be illegal. AS it came from the associ-
ated press we assumed that it was cor
rect. No less a journal than Harpers'
Weekly has since explained that it was
mistaken when it published the same
item. At the time of the civil war and
in times of panic since both individuals
and firms have issued script to pass as
money for the purpose of facilitating
business. The law referred to provided
that - No person shall make, issue or
pay out any note check; memorandum,
token or other obligation for less sum
than one dollar intended to circulate as
money or to be received or used in lien
of lawful money of the United States. -
1t is said to be intended toprohibit such
issue as money in any amounts under
one dollar. But checks against deposits
in banks may still be issued for any sum
however small it may be.

WILL BE SOMETHING DOING

The Rockwell City Advocate, whose
editor is an enthusiastic Progressive, "
sizes up the situation in Iowa as follows;
Will there be a fractional fight in the
Republican party in Iowa next year?
Will the Standpatters sit idly by and
allow the Progressives " to control a
state convention that will give enthusi-
astic endorsement to Senators Dolliver
and Cummins and balance of the Pro-
gressives - for their action in Congress
upon the tariff question: If they will
there will be no fractional fight. Will
the "Progressives be lulled to sleep
by the harmony talk of the " Standpat-
tiers " and allow the latter to take snap
Judgment, control the state convention
and pass resolutions condemning action
of the Iowa Senators and endorsing the
Aldrich- Cannon combination? If they
will then there will be no fractional fight
Otherwise there will be something doing
and this paper desires to express the
humble opinion that beyond the ques-
ton of a doubt there will be something
doing

TEAM STOLEN IN
LINCOLN TOWNSHIP
BUT THIEVES ARE CAUGHT SAT-
URDAY IN OMAHA
James Perry and Dwight Morey Are
Found With the Horses in
Their Possession

When Abe Kaufman and his son
Herman, Of Lincoln township went to
the barn last Saturday morning they
found the stalls that had been occupied
by their nice little driving team entirely
vacant. Herman had been out TO n
social gathering the night before and re
turned home about IL o'clock putting
his team away as he had done many
times before, but the next morning the
whole outfit, team, harness and buggy,
was missing About ! o'clock they re-
ported the matter To Sheriff Crees who
sent his deputy to Manning by first train
and from their he went to Council Bluffs.
All the towns in the country west of
here were notified by telephone and the
county sheritfs and city detectives were
given description of the team.
About O'Clock that evening Perry
and Morey drove into barn out in
Omaha and tried TO sell the team which
was very much tagged from the long
nara drive, asking two hundred dollars
nut quickly coming down to one hundred
Twelve and half. This aroused the
suspicion OF the stableman and he re-
fused to buy but said they should leave
leave the team over night and if il look
ed good to him in the morning he would
take 1t. The boys asked for two dollars
III order to get II place to sleep and some
thing to eat and the man gave them
that amount. Sunday morning Chief
Detective Donahue picked them up in
Omaha arrested them and locked them
up for safe keeping. Sheriff Crees was
notified and left on the first train ac.
companied by County ATTORNEY Mantz.
These officials returned with them Mon
day evening and lodged them in Jail 10
await trial and sentence TO the peniten
tiary.
According to their story they walked
from Manning Friday evening down TO
the Kaufman farm q distance of ten
miles and when they found the team
was not in the barn they went to "a straw
stack and took sleep while waiting for
Young Kaufman to return. They start
ell between one and two o'clock driving
east from the farm, then north "a mile
ana then to the west passing through
irwin and then on to Harlan which they
passed about daylight. They stopped
by the way and fed the team some corn
taken from the field but claimed they
had not eaten anything themselves along
the way.
One of the young men is James Perry
who came from Canada about five wears
ago and has since been working around
here and there getting food and clothes
IN a more or less uncertain way. Dwight
Morey is well known in Audubon where
he lived and worked for some time and
some OF his relatives are now living in
the county, though we understand his
father is somewhere in Minnesota.
Sometime during the county fair a sad
die horse was stolen from Alfred Arney
out i'll the neighborhood of the Kauff-
man S in Lincoln and Morey has confess
ed to the crime saying he sold the horse
and saddle for seventeen dollars. The
boys are only 10 years of age and it is
hoped that this early experience may
teach them a lesson they will not forget
after they have suffered the penalty of
this transgression of the law.
