and a bugle corps, whose special duty
will be to sound the old calls in use
at the Confederate army during the
war. At this camp we will also have
free vaudevilles, moving pictures, etc,
and everything we can provide for the
comfort and pleasure of our guests.
This camp is in no sense charita-
ole proposition, but is intended as an
expression of our appreciation of the
honor conferred on this city in select
ing it for the coming reunion. The
camp will be limited strictly to Con-
federate veterans, and they will not
be permitted to pay anything for
their entertainment while here.
All that is necessary, is for them to
notify the chairman of committee No.

so that accommodations in Camp
Shaver" may be reserved. For paid
lodgings for the general public the ell
closed circular and application for
reservations apply. These applica-
tions should be filled out as. soon as
possible and forwarded as requested.
Very respectfully,

From the Democrat:
Miss Thomas of Columbus has been
in town this week guest of her sis.
ter, Mrs, Art Wolf and family.
George Ellington left last week fol-
Milford, this stae, to enter the sold
iers' home, where he expects to make
his home in the future. He sold his
residence property and ground in the
north part of town to Smith & Ward,
and the same will be converted into a
feed lot.
Plans Of the new c. N. w. depot
have been received by Agent Hicks,
and it is figured that the work of
building will begin in a few days,
We understand the new depot will
simply be a reconstruction of the old
one only that a new part will be add
ed and the old structure rearranged.
so that in reality We will have prac-
tically new depot. The site of the
new depot will be moved a short dis
lance west of the location of the pres
ent depot in order to secure more plat
form room.
G. H. Peters left Saturday for New
ada, Missouri, and Tuesday evening of
this week returned home accompanied
by Mrs. Peters who had been in a hos
pital at that place for the past sever
al weeks receiving medical treat
ment. The Democrat is glad to re-
port that Mrs. Peters is much improv-
ed in health.
Mrs. Dickinson received word yes
terday to the effect that John, the
eight-year-Old son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Fred Dickinson of Butte, Nebraska,
had met with a serious accident while
playing at school, and he was so bad
ly injured that it is feared that the
boy will not be able to recover. 1t
appears from the meager details of
the accident received that the boy was
wrestling with a play mate, and he
was thrown in such q way that his
spine was badly injured, which has
caused practically complete paral-
ysis of the limbs and arms.

The fire alarm was turned on Satur-
day afternoon calling the hose COM
pany out to put out a fire at John
Reimer's home. But John did not
need their assistance as he caught the
fire up and cast it out into the back
yard, the only damage resulting being
the destruction of a gasoline stove,
which started the fire and some rather
severe burns to Johns hands.
We understand that Morris Nelson,
young son of Chas. Nelson, who rec
eived an injury to his eye from whip
several weeks ago, has lost the sight
of the eye entirely, which is certainly
a sad affair.
Bert Saline, who has been in Colo
RADIO for several months taking the
consumption cure, arrived in the city
the last of the week for a short visit
with his relatives. He has recovered
from the consumption but will continue
to reside in Colorado as a protection
against its return.

Pushing and Pulling.

It has been wisely observed that
most operations can be more efficiently
performed by drawing them along
through their proper course than by at-
tempting to push and jam them
through. just as 1t is much easier to
pull q rope than 1t Is to push 1t. There
are probably not many persons who
have tried to push a rope. but very
many have attempted things almost as
perverse. In many manufacturing es-
tablishments. for example, there may
be seen numerous examples Of men
wasting q large part Of their energy
endeavOring to move heavy pieces Of
work upon small trucks, pushing and
laboring In the exertiOn Of effort, a
small fraction Of which goes to cause
the actual progression. Even when
such an effective aid to transport as an
Industrial railway Is installed 1t IS Of
ten used Mt less than its proper eff
cheney because there Is too much push
ing and not enough pulling.-Cassier's
Magazine.

ments shown at the top of this column.
This new style of advertising is
called Syndicated Advertising Service,
and its development is the latest evo-

The local retailer has seldom the
ability to write craftsmanship for his

training to write advertisements that
sell goods. just as it necessitates
training to practice law and medi-

When your body is sick you do not
try to cure yourself, you take medical
advice and apply the treatment that
is given you by the trained physician.
If you are wise you apply the same
principle to your sick business, you
use the medicine-suessful salesman

The highest grade of expert pub

a national reputation in the retail

advertisements, and the merchant who
uses them persistently and constantly

They do not advise him to pick his

volved Is just as reprehensible. They
ask him to abstract q few bags that
the silver money IS carried In. The
women want those bags for sofa pill
low covers. They are made Of mate
rial that will never wear out and

Mrs. p. A. Weberg, 1922 Hayes
St., Columbus, Nebraska, says: For
two years l was subject to sharp, cut
ting pains in the small of my back and
the misery was about all l could pos
sibly endure. There was a dull, drag
ging-down feeling in my loins, ex-
tending into my limbs and my head
ached so seveerly that I thought it
would break. When the trouble was
at its height, could get no rest day
or night. The kidney secretions were
in bad shape and this convinced me
that l was in need of a Kidney medi-
cine. About six months ago was
fortunate enough to hear of Doan's
Kidney Pills and procured a box at
Pollock & Co.'s Drug Store, began
their use. No medicine ever gave me
such prompt relief. The pain in my
back disappeared almost Immediately
and the other annoying symptoms of
my trouble were removed" State
