A Serious Girl

The following is taken from

Gus over there:
Blair, Neb., May l8, 1914
Dear Editor:
The girls dared me to write
this and | dare you to print it.
I've heard that papers don't
print anonymous letters, but
when you read this you'll see
why | simply could not sign
my name to it without losing
my goat. But for the sake of
every manageable girl in

have no COB of gloom to
work off, but looking at it from
a patriotic viewpoint, l really
think there ought to be more
marrying among the young
people of Blair and vicinity.
It's a fine country but it needs
more people.
Now | have had the same
strong arm around me till my
back aches, and heard those
same worn-out Sunday night
hints about what a lonely life a
single man lives till l know
them by heart words and
/ music. But you can always
count on a quick getaway
when the ice gets too thin
Nothing stirring in the pro-
posal business.
Oh, they are a cautious crowd,
these Blair lads. A girl know
creed one indiscreet biped in
pants who Judged over the
| dead line and actually talked

the high cost Of living and the
drudgpry that threatens a poor

Some time ago a fine high grade pi-

citizen since then he has met with
sad reyerses and he writes us that as
he expects to leave Shoshone and can
not take the instrument with him. and
he asks us TO take the piano and that
he would lose the amount that he has
paid, which is nearly one half of the
purchase price.
We do not want TO go to the expense
Of shipping this instrument and there
fore we will sell this piano to new
buyer for the balance due us, which
is a little more than half the first
price.
We will also arrange terms to suit
any reasonable buyer.
We also have another cheaper piano
in Shoshone that we have for sale I'M
der similar conditions as above. For
anyone who wants a good piano at a
very low price this is a bargain as it
will also go for what is still due US
from the former purchaser. For full

NEW NEWS OF YESTERDAY
The Actual Truth About Andrew johnson

In the spring of 1884 Charles A. Dana
visited Washington with party
made up of two or three intimate
friends. AS he rode about taking
notes of the improvements which had
transformed Washington as it had
been in the days when he was assist
ant secretary of war into one of the
most beautiful cities of the world he
occasionally became reminiscent,
speaking to his friends of some of
those with whom he had been asso-
ciated in the administration of Presi-
dent Lincoln.
1t occurred to me to ask Mr.. Dana
if there was any truth in the report
that Andrew johnson was not always
prudent in the use of stimulants.
81 am certain Mr. Dana replied,
that grave injustice was done to
Johnson. But 1t was partly his own
fault He was a strange compound.
He was not always in control of good
Judgment, and this weakness was dis
played conspicuously when he deliver
ed impromptu offhand or unprepared
addresses. Then he was so extrava-
CANT and vindictive and made use of
such ill-considered expressions that
he was sometimes suspected to have
been under the influence of stimu-
lants, being practically total abb
stainer Sometimes it was suspected
that he occasionally made use of
some narcotic drug, but If there were
ever any evidences of this they oc-
Cured at a time when he was in
poor health. He was not in good
