OLD FOLKS FIND
A CHEEKY FRIEND
A Boon to Those Who Have
Started Down the Hill OF
Life.

So many Of us have been seek.
ing some really efficient remedy
to give to our old folks who are
treading in the long shadows Of
life. That remedy must contain
the proper tonic qualities to re.
vitalize sluggish organs and the
blood.
That something mas been found
1t is Tanlac.
1t is cowardly to let debility
sap away the life and comforts
when it can be stayed. A con.
dition of debility never wears
itself out. Instead, it gradually
grows mere pronounced unless
proper measures to check it are
taken. 1t gathers force and
nourishes itself upon the tissues
Of the body. To build up those
tissues is to fight debility.
Characteristic condition of de-
bility both in old and young are
nervousness, headaches, back.
aches, depression of spirits, loss
Of appetite, sleeplessness and a
general good. for-nothing feeling
that comes from lack of energy.
Tanlac is designed to combat
these conditions in many ways.
1t is a splendid tonic and tissue
builder with just the right
amount Of proteids. 1t quiets
nerves and brings back restful
sleep, which is Natures first aid
to the debilitated. 1t corrects
stomach troubles and there, in
nine cases out of ten, you have
the seat Of a nervous, debilitat-
ing ailment.
With the body recharged with
vigor, that detested, Respondent
feeling passes away so quickly
you are astonished and mighty
rsgretful that you didn't start
out to fight it long before.
Tanlac may now be obtained
in Marion at j. H. 0rme's where
its great popularity is being bet
ter shown every day.
Tanlsc may be obtained in the
following nearby towns:

MANY LEAGUES ARE
FORMED BY GUNMEN
Twenty Seven Trapshooting
Circuits Are Organized in
United States.
SCATTERED OVER COUNTRY
By PETER P. CARNEY.

In this great and glorious country
of ours-the land of the free and the
home of the brave-there are twenty
seven trapshooting leagues, and the
trapshooters connected with these
organizations could be massed into,
quite an army-and trapshooters are
pretty fair shots.
However, the idea of this article
was to deal with trapshooting
leagues-not with war or its pros
poets. We are not strong for that
battlefield stuff 1t is all right in the
movies, but not in real life, There
are some people more or less inter-
ested in sporting events who thought
that the only sport in which there
were leagues was base ball.
Such is not the case, fair reader.
Trapshooting leagues are. all the
rage these days. Go back dozen
years and there was only one league
the misnamed Philadelphia Trap
shooters organization. Ten years
ago there were a couple and today
we have tweny-seven-and additions
every year. There are no failures in
trapshooting.
In these twenty-seven trapshoot-
ing leagues there are at least $4,000
trapshooters. That is a conserva-
tive estimate. The Philadelphia
Trapshooters' league has ten clubs
in and about Philadelphia on its rolls
and a membership of more than
1000. These leagues are to be found
all over the country from New York
to Oregon.
Pennsylvania Leads. 49, .
Pennsylvania has more gun clubs
than any other state, and naturally
has more leagues-seven. Illinois
has six. Little New Jersey has four.
The time is coming when there will
be as many trap-shooting leagues as
there are base ball leagues. This
sounds big, and is. But an assertion
five years ago that there would be
more than 100000 trapshooters and
1900 gun clubs today would have
brought smile at that time, yet they
are here with us and the fraternity is
being augmented every day.
Here is fhe roster of the trap
shooting leagues: -~

an awful dose to the teams that had
been touted as leaders. The Queen
City, despite the encouraging reports
that are emanating thence, will find it
mighty hard shedding when the team
enters on its outside schedule More
so will this be, true when Captain
Jess Patty and his purple and white
warriors hit the Beatrice trail. Crete
also has it In for the Gage county
lads, seeing that Beatrice took the
state championship from them at the
state tournament after suffering two
defeats in midseason.
Fremont After Crete.
/ Fremont, on the other hand, will be
after. the Crete scalp. The opening
round of the state tournament found
the Dodge lads competing with
Coach Squire's proteges in the closest
game of the tournamnt. That night
the Dodge delegation left for home
trying hard to swallow a Is to Is de-
feat. The two teams are scheduled
to meet during the season this year.
Geneva can be counted on for little
revenge, too. Again Beatrice is the
defending culprit In the second
round of the tourney last year Bea-
triee defeated Coach Thieson's fast
five by a score of II to 9. Geneva
has two veterans back, which would
mean that the odds are against the
Queen City again.
What effect the dropping of many
stars from the lineups of the leading
teams will have is looked forward to
with interest. Apparently South High
has the makings of a wonderful five
with but one veteran back. Beatrice
will be compelled to fill in all but one
man, Stevens. Merwin Kyle, all
state quarterback in the last foot ball
season, has been elected captain.
Lincoln's hopes are not near as
bright as CentraPs. Captain Brian

that he will leave school for good at
the close of the present term
Cypreanson and Albrecht, forwards
are the veterans who will survive.

Nebraska Challenges Kentucky
As Home of Big Breeding Farms

"She was bred in old Kentucky" is
an old-established and popular chant
and residents of the moonshine state
will insist that the only thorough
thoroughbred in the world must be
bred on the bluegrass of Kentucky,
but the commonwealth of colonies,
genuine and pseudo, can't cast any
slurs or aver any superiority over Ne
braska when it comes to breeding
standard bred light harness horses.
For while Kentucky can point with
pride to its Walnut Hill, its Patchen
Wilkes and its Castleton, and Ohio,
California, Indiana, Iowa and Texas
can Join in the chorus, little old Ne
braska can raise lusty lung and take
its place right along side any of them.
Nebraska has never been greatly
advertised as a state of breeding
farms, but there are several OF them
in the state and they turn out trotters
and PAGERS that make their mark in
competition with the best of them.
The largest breeding farm in Ne
braska is owned by E. d. Gould. 1t is
Midway farm, located at Kearney. And
Midway farm is one OF the largest Of
its kind in the country and no farm
can boast OF more select band Of
brood mares.
Back, in the eighties Mr.. Gould

gave the breeding industry its start in
this state. Shadeland Onward, 2:1SH

That high-class trotters and PAGERS
could be bred, raised and developed in
Nebraska, Mr.. Gould demonstrated
beyond all doubt, and his success gave
an impetus to breeding in Nebraska
which made this state one of the most
prominent in the country.
Mr.. Gould abandoned the breeding
business for several years, but in 1914
returned to it and started his present
establishment at Kesyney. He be.

bred light horses is, going to be enor-
nous because of the discovery that the
light horse is the most, valuable utility
animal in existence. THE European
war has taken 100000 horses from
America" says Mr.. Gould, and they
were practically all trotters, because
drafters cannot be used for military
purposes. The American trotter is
the most popular harness horse in
Europe and when the war is over we
will be flooded with buyers and prices
