eral services were conducted at the home. Mr. Farmer! You have a wife, a boy or a girl who sometimes has to the cream separator, why insist upon a machine that tires you so when one can be had that is practically friction less. The Empire starts under the weight of its crank and runs so quietly you can hear a watch tick while turning it at full speed. Just to be fair with your cows get a separator that will get all the cream.

Mathias Strahm, another of the Strahm brothers who have helped in the peace-conquest of the soil in this part of Nemaha county, died suddenly at his home northwest of Berwick Sunday evening. Sunday afternoon he helped with the Lord's supper at the Apostolic church in the country, apparently in the best of health.

He enjoyed a hearty supper Sunday evening and visited with relatives until about 7 o'clock. He stepped into the back yard and was siezed with heart failure. He was found immediately and carried by his son and the man employed on the place into the house. A physician was summoned but nothing could, of course be done, death following quickly after the attack of heart failure. Thus another of the Strahm ers passes away.

The was a preacher in the little Apostolic Christians, but he minister to everybody. The father helped many a needy settler in the early days when assistance meant everything. Mathias, his son was much like him.

No one ever went to him for assistance and was turned away empty handed. He helped his neighbors to live stock when had luck lcst them animals. He "temperared the wind to the shorn lamb." The religion of the Apostolic church is the atmosphere and the philosophy of the Savior himself. Mathias Strahm personally lived it seven days in every week. Mathias Strahm was married thirtytwo years ago last January to Mary Ann Lehman.

She survives him, together with one son, Mathias, junior, of the home place. The deceased was a native of Bern, Switzerland, where he was tern in 1847.

Arthur Nevin, who is conducting the Municipal Chorus concert Thursday night in Sabetha, was for several years a student of Indian music and made his home with the blackfeet Indians of the Dakotas. In summer when they went on tramps he went too.

He burned his face, his head ached and his eyes were tortured by the sun, as he went Indian fashion with head uncovered. The old chief told him to blacken under his eyes and the sun would not hurt his eyes, as the reflection of the sun from the white beneath the eye was diverted. This is a good thing for tourists to remember, who have long drives in the sun. Try it. The blacking beneath the eyes will prevent headache.

The Indians have no headaches the old chief said. Mr. and Mrs. Haines Golden Wedding. All the Haines "children" were home for the golden wedding dinner of their parents, Mr.

and Mrs. H. C. Haines, and three "children-in-law." The dinner was a most happy occasion. How could it be otherwise for a father and mother of fifty, happy, contented, prosperous married years, surrounded by seven healthy, happy, prosperous children and five ditto grandchildren.

For this are we born, improve the race. Mr. and Mrs. Haines, under this ruling of prophets and philosophers, may know that theirs has been andel now a truly successful life. dinner table, whose chief decoration was that of happy faces, was further beautifued of with glass baskets yellow iris, and C.

a low center-piece the same of lovely spring flower. Harry C. Haines and Josephine Hartzell, (sounds impudent, doesn't it, to write that way) were married at St. Joseph, April 24, 1867. We would be willing wager, had we not been forbidden to discourse too much on this affair, that none of the later brides in the family was lovelier than their mother on wedding day.

Mr. Haines cannot object to that or it will make family trouble. Often a society reporter has difficulty in straightening her conscience after writing about brides. What a picnic Mrs. Haines' wedding must have been for the lucky St.

Joseph reporter who had it to write up. After the marriage Mr. and Mrs. Haines lived in Bigelow, coming to Sabetha forty years ago next fall. They lived for a while on Washington avenue about where the Bressem house now stands.

Mr. Haines' store was in: a frame building where Gene Miller's bakery is. With an eye to the future Mr. Haines shortly bought the lots where his handsome home is now, and the lots where his store stands now. And in these two spots have they lived and reared their splendid family.

The Haines store is the pride of the community and one of the places one shows off to visitors. Their home is, today, a bower of lovely flowers, and the mail has been flooded with notes and cards of congratulations. The neighbors told us this, and you know how neighbors will talk. Mr. and Mrs.

Forest Haines returned to ElDorado this afternoon with their daughter, Irene. Harve Haines returned Wednesday to his store in Maryville, Mo. These two sons are keeping the Haines store legend thriving in their respective the parent up-to-date to the last towns, as Charlie, Haines is keeping word here at home. Mrs. Walter Hardesty and her sons, Henry and Homer, are here from Akron, Ohio, also, and Mrs.

Art Slosson from Newkirk, and Mrs. Albert Young and daughter, Eloise, from Lake City, Minn. More news overheard by the police court reporter. On the day Mr. and Mrs.

Haines were married in St. Joseph 'there was the doggondest earthquake known there before or since. H. C. Haines was in business in St.

Joseph at the time and his safe rocked like a cradle. "You were taking quite a chance with Providence weren't you?" said a business man to Mr. Haines. "Yes," he said, but if I were going to do it all over again I would probably go ahead as I did then." Things happen SO frequently that would seem telepathic. Mr.

and Mrs. Haines are celebrating their golden wedding this week. In searching some old things this week Mrs. Elizabeth Stewart found an old program of the concert given many years ago called "Ye Great Feast of Musicke." This is also the week of Sabetha's annual Music festival. The three incidents would seem interwoven.

The Musicke programe has an advertisement on the back of Mr. Haines store starting "To Ye Publick: Notice." It is the only advertisement on the quaint program. No names of the quaint program. No names of the singers are given in the program. Here's a bargain: Boys' shirts 25 cents each while they last.
