The first great bank in the world
was the Bank of Venice. established
In 1857, when the Queen City of the
Adriatic was at the head of the COM
merce Of the western world. AT that
time the great current Of he trade
between Europe and Asia passed
through the Persian gulf and the Red

Gus parts of Europe. Venice was q

their wealth and reliability. They
founded their bank, which was guaran-
teed by the government, and was held
in high credit in all the great cities on
the outes of trade. The word bank
was derived from the Italian word
"banCO." a bench or counter over
which the business was transacted.

TINY BABY'S PITIFUL CASE

"Our baby when two months old
was suffering with terrible eczema
from head to foot, all over her body.
The baby looked just like a skinned
rabbit. We were unable to put clothes
on her. At first it seemed to be a few
mattered pimples. They would break
the skin and peel off leaving the un-
derneath skin red as though it were
scaIds. Then a few more pimples
would appear and spread all owe the
body, leaving the baby all raw without
skin from head to foot. On top of her
head there appeared a heavy scab a
quarter of an inch thick. 1t was aW-
full to see so small a baby look as she
did. Imagine! The doctor was afraid
to put his hands to the child. We
tried several doctors remedies but all
failed.
Then we decided to try Cuticura.
BY using the Cuticura Ointment we
softened the scab and it came off. In
der this, where the real matter was,
by washing with the Cuticura Soap
and applying the Cuticura Ointment,
a new skin soon appeared. We also
gave baby -four drops of the Cuticura
Resolvent three times daily. After
three days you could see the baby
gaining a little skin which would peel
off and heal underneath. Now the
baby is four months old. She is a fine
picture of a fat little baby and all is
we'll. We only used one cake of Cuti-
cura Soap, two boxes of Cuticura Oint-
ment and one bottle of Cuticura Re
solvent. If people would know what
Cuticura is there would be few suffer
ing with eczema. Mrs. Joseph Koss-
mann, Z St. Johns Place, Ridgewood

Book Companionship.

Books are a guide in youth and an
entertainment for age. They support
US under solitude and keep us from
being a burthen to ourselves. They
help US to forget the crossness of men
and things; compose our cares and
u passions; and lay our disappoint-
ments asleep. When we are weary
of the living we may repair to the
dead, who have nothing Of peevish-
ness, pride or design in their con
versation.-Jeremy Collier.

The Missouri river is doing considerable
damage to the farm land in the vicinity
Of Barney, seven miles south OF this city.
The county had an e~ighty-foot steel bridge
across the drainage ditch near that place
and they had to get a force Of men and
put them to work TO save It. The bridge
was taken down and carried up onto the
bluffs where It will remain until a ntw read
can be located and graded as the read has
been cut away by the flood. ]. N. Ressenue

house. which was at one time almost a
half mile from the river, but II lacked but
a short time Of going into the river. The
school house has been moved a half mile
inland and the elevator nearly that dis
lance. Part Of the new track which the
Burlington had built this winter and ex-
pected It to be out OF the reach Of the flood

lowing action was taken in reference to the
passenger train service between Hastings
and Red Cloud:
Resolved, That we protest against the
service about to be established on the Hast
tngs and Red Cloud line of the Chicago
Burlington & Quincy railroad. for the rea-
son that 1t would be greatly TO the detri-
ment Of the mail service on said line, ais
we could not receive daily papers before 8
p. m, thus making country delivery TWEEN
ty-four hours late, And further, that said
service would practically eliminate the pos
sibility Of Campbell, Bladen, Blue Hin and
Cowles citizens from transactlng any busi-
ness at our county seat. Red Cloud, with
out remaining in said Red Cloud two nights.
Be 1t further,
Resolved. That a copy hereof be filed
with the Eoard OF Railway Commissioner
of the state Of Nebraska, and that said
board be requested to require the Chicago,
Burlington & Quincy Railroad company to
run a passenger train from Hastings to
Red Cloud. leaving Hastings in the morn
ing and returning from Red Cloud in the
afternoon.

A LITTLE THING
Changes the Home Feeling.

Coffee blots out the sunshine from many
a home by making the mother, or some
other member of the household, dyspeptic,
nervous and irritable. There are thousands
Of cases where the proof is absolutely un-
deniable. Here Is one.
A Wis. mother writes:
II was taught to drink coffee at an
early age, and also at an early age be-
came a victim to headaches, and as /
grew to ~womanhood these headaches be-
came a part Of me, as 1 was scarcely ever
free from them.
About five years ago a friend urged me
to try Postum. 1 made the trial and the
result was so satisfactory that we have
used It ever since.
MY husband and little daughter were
subject to bilious attacks, but they have
both been entirely free from them since
we began using Postum instead OF coffee.
I no longer nave headaches. and my health
is perfect"
II some OF these nervous, tired, irritable
women would only leave off coffee abb
solutely and try Postum. they would find
a wonderful change in their life. 1t would
then be filled with sunshine and happiness
rather than WEAKNESS and discomfort. And
think what an effect II would nave on the
family, for the mood OF the mother is
largely responsible for the temper OF the
children.

To Keep the Hair

(From Chicago Inter Ocean.)

The proper care Of the hair does moi
require a woman to scour her scalp with
soap and drench her hair with water until
a shampoo, including drying the hair
takes the better part OF the day. In fact
authorities say that the less soap and
water used on the hair the better, as the
alkalt and moisture tend to make the
hair coarse, dull and brittle.
II you want to keep the scalp clean and
the hair light and fluffy. try dry sham
