Northwestern Corn
Out Of Way Of Frost

The Northwestern crop report for
the week ending Monday indicates that
the corn along the company's Nebraska
lines Is maturing rapidly and all through
the southern portion of the state far
enough along so that Il would not be i'm
jured by frost unless Il should be OF
the Killing kind.
In the central and northern portions OF
the state. while the prospects for a
bumper crop are the best ever known, Il
is estimated that from ten days 20 two
weeks of hot. dry weather Is needed. In
nearly every locality it Ia asserted that
the corn crop is in the best possible con-
dltion. aside from being little late,
Stalks are heavily cared and the kernels
are filling out far better than In former
years
In many sections of the territory plow'
ing has been about finished and the SOW.
ing OF fall wheat we'll under way. A
normal acreage is predicted.

To Put on Flesh

aoop ADVICE ron THIN PEOPLE.
ira certainly give most anything TO he
able to gain few pounds and stay that
way, declare many thin men and wo-

until they pass from the body as waste.
To correct this condition and produce
healthy norpal amount OF fat and flesh
making food elements must be so pre-
pared in the digestive processes that the
blood Will ACCEPT and distribute them
throughout the body. There Is a prepara-
tion called Sargol which works on this
basis and which is sold by nearly every
druggist on positive guarantee of
weight increase or money back. Hun
dreds have testified TO weight increase
sargol does not OF itself make fat hut
is simply a combination OF ingredients OF

tive organs to separate the fattening

Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben in years.
1t was Omaha night, and the clos
ing number of the big show that had
delighted many thousands through
out the summer. At no time has
there been more Pep" displayed,
and when the curtain finally dropped,
blotting out the bunch OF good fell

plause that their conscientious ef-
forts merited.
Pep" fingered in the air, and
ascending the nostrils of the audi
ence made them sneeEe with delight.
Some asserted that it was "sneezing
powder"
Everything worked in fitting style. and
the hanging OF the "piker," who failed
to pay his so dues, was ceremony en-.

marks OF thanks to Gus Renee, tho work
ing crew and the members OF Ak-sar-
Ben, who now are 2,570 stroug-more than
at the close Of any other season. A total
of 1900 visitors witnessed the show this
year.
Mr.. buckingham introduced G.. w.
Wattles. who said, II have been a MEM
ber of Ak-Sar-Ben ever since It first
started, but the hanging OF the 'piker'
at this seasons show appealed 10 me
more than any one feature OF the en-.

III we could drive home the point that
1t represents, to all knockers who rap
Ak-Sar-Ben, Nebraska and the city Of

many within the sound of my voice may
not sanction everything he SAYS, we can't
gain anything by knocking. And II
Billy does Omaha some good. as think
he will, say God speed him-or anybody
else"
This statement was greeted with the
widest enthusiasm and cheering.
II say stand by the state, the city In
which you live. and boost all the time
for the community and Ak-Sar- Ben, .
concluded Mr.. Wattles.
Dave Mercer wound up the speaking
with a tribute to the working crew oi
