1t is made by padding the arm of the
sewing machine with lambs wool or
cotton and then covering it with a
pretty cretonne or silk or any ma
terial suitable for a pincushion. The
pins can be put into this cushion in
a trice, and 1t is a wonder that every
woman has not thought this out for
herself, and that such handy con-
trivance has not long been in gen.
eral use.

SPRING TIME

Along about this time o. year,
Afore the MEMBERSHIPS,
Folks feel so restless and so queer,
Jest livin' trys their mettle.
They feel there's somethln' in the air,
That tells 'em Spring is GONNA
The tho't Just tests their patience ere
They hear the brook a-funnin'.
And they're not even conscious quite
That they're listenin' every morn,
For a sound from yonder tree-top,-
1.-The sweet robins merry song"
And when the sun comes up and shines
Each day little higher,
It makes 'em feel like hustling-
Sort o. lights ambitions fire.
House cleanin' seems attractive,
Clear things off-make space for air;
Oh, those wholesome, fresh spring
breezes,
Let them blow in everywhere.
I've been thinking natures gearning
To start living life anew
Is like what enters human Hearts,
For they crave the springtime too.
There are times they want to right things,
Rid themselves of wrongs and sin,
Substitute with Gods sweet love
And thus made clean-begin again.

PUBLIC AUCTION OF 1900 ACRES.
Bennett Loan e. Trust Company, Of
Sioux City, Risk Sale OF 14oo
Acres to Auctioneer's Hammer.

IN the public auction sale OF 1400
acres OF Iowa corn and clover land.
there is an opportunity for procuring
"a farm home unparalleled in the his
tory OF western Iowa. II man Will
stop and figure little he Will read
ily see that it is better by far than to
take Dakota land on lottery chances,
liz only as a matter of speculation be-
cause one must take into consldcra-
ton the time it takes to prove up,
the expense of improving the land
and then wait for the country to set
tie up before you can have a commun-
iity desirable to live in; but in buying
at this auction you have all these
things at your door-iinprovements al
ready on the farm, neighbors close
by, churches and schools already
built, and the roads and bridges al
ready prepared for you to use These
are things which add very materially
to the value of home.
The fact that these farms are near
old and we'll established markets ADDS
very materially to their value, ana
should be taken into consideration
when thinking of getting home. FMS
land is located in a part OF the coun-
try where land has just begun to ad-
vance. The advance will be very rapid
in the next lew years and it is ex-
rccled by all conservative and thought
full men that land in this part OF Iowa
will in very few years reach the
s150 90 to $4,000 per acre mark.
Now this land is going to be sold
to the highest bidder absolutely and
without reserve as the owners have
concluded to take their money out or
the land and put it into other lines OF
business and you will have this oppor-
itunity Of buying this land at its actual
value and less, and on terms which
YOU cannot expect to get when buying
of the individual farmer, because he
usually wants all of his money out and
has to have it. In this case the Ben.
nett Loan & Trust company can use
your notes given for the deferred pay
ments, thus making it easy for you
to handle a piece of this.
This is surely the homeseekers
chance. 43-1t

WEBERG ADDS TO HERD.
Spends $500 for a Male Hogs and Says
He Feels That His Money

p. w. Weberg. the well-known breed
Ter of Duroc Jersey hogs at Denison,
was down at STANTON last Thursday
and purchased from c. J. Huffman a
male hog registered as &C. HIS Spec
ial.' The purchase price was $500,
and MI. Weberg was offered 500 for
Ibis bargain before arriving home. The
Drovers' Journal at South Omaha says,
regarding the purchase:
"P. w. Weberg, the well-known
breeder OF DurOc Jersey hogs at Deni-
son, Iowa, bought the famous boar,
IC. HIS Special in c. j. Huffman's sale
at Scranton. Iowa, last Thursday. The
price was $500 and this is certainly
much below the value of this great
boar.
breeders have always considered
&c. HIS Special as one OF the best boars
in the entire west. He is without
question the largest, as he weighed
september LIST, $50 pounds, and looked
then as if he could easily carry 100
pounds more. Mr.. Weberg is surely
to be congratulated on placing this
great boar at the head OF his herd, for

fer. that is the big, smooth kind with
immense depth.
"Mr. Webcrg already has great

selling more boars at private sale this

bought the very best sows that money
could buy to place in his herd. Last
