Hon. Charles E. Townsend of Jack
son, has concluded not to oppose the
reelection of Speaker Cannon; in fact
he has no opposition to the re election
of the speaker, but thinks the rules of
congress should be revised. Charley is
wise. He knows better than to butt
his head against stone wall He does
want Senator Burrows place, however,
but may change his mind about that
when the time comes. Quite lot of
Michigan people think Mr. Burrows is
filing the place very acceptably.-

RHEUMATISM RECIPE.
Directions To Prepare Simple. Yet
Remark able Home Mixture.

A well-known authority on Rheuma-
tism gives the following valuable,
though simple and harmless prescrip
ton, which any one can easily prepare
at home:
Fluid Extract Dandelion. one. half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
Mix by shaking we'll in bottle, and
take a teaspoonful after each meal and
at bedtime.
He states that the ingredients can be
obtained from any good prescription
pharmacy at small cost, and, being Of
vegetable extraction, are harmless to
take
This pleasant mixture, if taken reg
ularly for few days, Is said to over
come almost any case of Rheumatism.
The pain and swelling, IL any, dimin-
ishes with each dose, until permanent
results are obtained, and without in
juring the stomach. While there are
many so-called Rheumatism remedies,
patent medicines, etc, some Of which
do give relief, few really give perma-
nent results, and the above will, no
doubt, be greatly appreciated by many
sufferers here at this time.
Inquiry at the drug stores of this
neighborhood ELECTS the information
that these drugs are harmless and can be
bought separately, or the druggists here
will mix the prescription for our read
ers If asked to.

DEAN CHARLES FORDYCE
TALKS TO OMAHA FATHERS
Points Out Great Need of Warning
Growing Boys Against the
Black Plague.

THE Black Plague" was the subject Of
an address delivered by Dean Charles
Fordyce Of the University of Nebraska be-
fore about $50 Of the fathers of Omaha boys
al the Young Mems Christian association
Sunday afternoon.
Judge Howard Kennedy presided at the
meeting. Those present were there by spe-
cial invitation. G. G. Wallace preceded
Prof. Fordyce in a short address In which
he touched upon the character OF influences
that surround boys of tender age in smaller
communities that have a tendency to start
them into immoral lives.
Prof. Fordyce's address was illustrated
by numerous stereopticon views showing
the various phases of physical degeneracy
and the cause. He also showed how the
black plague" was the primal cause Of
idiocy and lunacy and that it was not only
acquired, but was inherent and both con-
tagious and infectious.
The remedy lies. he held, in pointing out
to boys In their tender years the evils OF
the black plague" and warning the youth
OF the inevitable consequences OF this
disease. which, while prsyentable, when
once acquired is incurable.

LINCOLN. Nov. 15.-Cspecla1)-An ice

the C~ornhuskers to the state farm for

reported for work early and Cole gave
them two hours Of strenuous signal piac-
tee.
The Nebraska coach returned from Den

the Haskell Indians and Denver Saturday,
full OF praise for both teams. The Ind ans.
he said, were a remarkable bunch and they
had the best set OF klckers that he has
seen this fall.
There was little to choose between the
two eievens," the Nebraska coach explained
TO the Cornhuskers at the training table
this noon. Both have a fast back field
and a stron CLINE.
The Denver players did some remark
able Individual work and in the open field
were terrors, both in carrying the ball and
in tackling. They handled punts well and
returned the oval for long distances after
every kick.
"Bender's backs had It on their oppo-
nents. They carried the ball for good gains
and were very fast. There were two or
three men in the Indians backfield who
could punt the ball fifty and sixty yards.
They received punts without faltering and
came back on them like fiends.
There was one thing 1 noticed-neither
side could gain consistently, and it was a
lucky tumble that gave the Haskells the
final score in the second half that won the
game for them. A Denver player dropped
the BAH on his W twenty-flve-yard Inc

the ball over the crossbars for three points.

Nebraska will ave a mighty hard time
defeating Denver. for they are not weak;
on the contrary, they are strong and should

The Cornhusker coach took excellent
notes on the Denver teams style of play
and ne started work this afternoon to
