THE NEBRASKA PRIMARY

welt in the Nebraska primary becomes
so large as to be startling. The indi-
cations are that he will have more
votes than both of his opponents.
perhaps by so per cent. Not until
the returns are all in will it be posi-
Bile to say with assurance that Presi-
dent Taft has escaped the humiIia-
ton of being the third man in the
contest. After all the allowances
are made, it is unreasonable to be-
lieve that the republicans of Nebras-
ka are ready to desert President Taft
as unanimously as these figures seem
to indicate. The slump to Roosevelt
and LaFollette looks more like pro
test and warning to the eastern re-
publlcans than final determination
to bolt the president in case he is
nominated.

SPLENDID ENTERTAINERS

The Capital City Band gave an ex-
celient concert last Thursday evening
to a full house. The boys are certain
lily making commendahle progress,
which brings to our mind that they
deserve better support than tn ey are
receiving. 1t seems rather hard that
many of the band members, who are
working hard and to save the dimes,
should go down into their pockets to
defray the expense of keep up so good
an organization. Everyone enjoys .
street or inside concert, and turn out
to hear one. Would it not be more
fair if our citizens supported at least
a part of the expenses? It would take
the small number of one hundred con-
tributors Of one dollar each, to keep
up the current expenses of the band.
Gentlemen, can you not afford 1920

Black Hills, at the conclusion of Mr..
Egan 3 addresses, went to him vol
UNFAIRLY and pledged him their sup

to promote his candidacy for nomi.

"There is no doubt that the Black
Hills will roll up for him vote Of
generous proportions, while many Of
his friends are of the opinion that he
will sweep the platter clean in. every
county comprising the Black Hills.
According to reports, there is q wave
of Egan sentiment throughout the
Black Hills since the residents Of
that section have had an opportunity
to hear him speak and meet him at
close range"

DON'T WORRY ABOUT
YOUR HEART
Pains In That Region Scarcely
Ever Mean Heart Disease but
Are Generally Caused by
Indigestion.

Most people who have heart disease
do not know it. Most people who
think they have heart disease, haven't.
They only think so. Pain in the region
OF the heart is mistakenly supposed to
be symptom of heart disease.
Just as pain in the back seldom or
never indicates kidney trouble, so pain
near the heart is scarcely ever present
in organic heart disease. This pain is
nearly always from the stomach which
is connected with the heart by many
nerves. a
When your digestion is out of order
it often affects the heartande even causes
an irregularity in its beat. The gas
produced by undigested and ferment-
ing food may cause pressure that affects
the heart unpleasantly. But these
pains do not mean that you have heart
disease nor need fear sudden death.
Try toning up the stomach and learn
how quickly and surely you lose the
fear of heart disease.
Tone up the stomach. Correct any
errors of diet. Eat the right things
and not too much OF them. II you do
not know what the right things are,

will be well and happy.
