plish this result with pastes and rub-on
preparations because they only remove

Nebraska Corn Still
Holds the High Belt

The Seward Independent prints this
story Of some tall corn raised in Ne
braska:'
In a recent issue the Dry Goods Re-
porter mentioned some Washington
county, Iowa, corn measuring fifteen
feet three inches, which was on display
at the wholesale house of Marshall Field
& Co.
This corn has lost it's laurels to Ne
braska, for Nj. c. Miller OF Seward Neb
has sent several samples of corn meas
uring fifteen feet ten inches to Marshall
Field q Co., where 1t towers over the
product from the proud state Of Iowa.
The display attracts considerable at
tention from visiting merchants as
well as Chicago people, who are Won
picking 1t or use step-ladders to gather
the crop-Dry Goods Reporter.
Bert Meters brought the prize stalk to
Mr. Miller and II looked high enough to
climbed by Jack of fairy story fame.
It's no wonder the people of Chicago
rub their eyes and imagine they are
seeing double when they gaze upon the
stalk from Seward county Nebraska.
Which reminds us that Jerry Rusk,
who was secretary of agriculture in
President Harrisons cabinet, told a
crowd in Omaha one day in 1891. He
said the train on which the presidential
party was crossing Nebraska was halted
in a cornfield this side of Hastings.
With some others of the party he got
off to examine the corn to see II some Of
the tales he had heard were true. He
reported that he found the stalks were
fourteen feet high. with enormous ears.
and that when they cut one down, they
found IL was hollow and filled with
shelled corn.

National Capital Theater-
sgoers Left to Variety
and Photoplay For En-
tertainment.

For the first time in years the
people of Washington find them
selves for brief season without
legitimate drama. So lo1g period
has passed since vacation time was
observed by all the theaters that
the sitcs.ion this week is unusual.
Compensation for the lack of reg
ular drama is found in the continu-
ance of the vaudeville season at
Keith's far beyond its usual limita-
tions--and even beyond it's usual
success. The bill this week, headed
by Homer Mason and company, is
another of the kind that has been
made noteworthy since the midsum-
mer programs were inaugurated a
month ago.
Laura Hope Crews, who has gain
ed SO much notice on the stage dur
ing the past two or three seasons
makes her first appearance as a
photoplayer at the Columbia in THE
Fighting Hope" and in the other
picture and vaudeville houses the
bills promised are said to be es-
pecially calculated to drive therao-
metric reckonings from the mind.
