It might be difficult to prove it. but there in burdly a doubt lha. many of tbe men who acqulreu titles to land in Kansas and Ne braska under tbe pre-emption act did not comply with tbe strides*, accuracy of the Jotter of tbe law. Yet they were not laud thieves. Most of them were settlers aud home builders aud tbe country is better off today from the fact 'that those claims passed into private ownership than it would be were tbe lands in question unoccupied 'and untilled. What the interests of tbe couu try demand la that tbe vucaut land be taken up and occupied either by home builders or by those who will develop the natural resources lying beneath tbe surface. This should >never be accomplished by fraud but in considering alleged case of fraud one should Inquire into the intent and purpose of the per son filing upon tbe land. —Denvei Republican.

Because every Kexall drug store muet be cotfilucted In an honor able, leg! imate and strictly accur ate manner, or It camnot long be called Rexail. Kexall stores are selected only, by representatives of the Purity Associations of America and these selections *»re ba*ed upon the rep utation of the drug store, the In tegrity and education of the man agement. When the name itexal! is given to a certain establishment it means same..hlng. People all over America are fact realizing the benefits to them, of such designa tions. The drug business Is a peculiar vocation, it offers great opportuni ties for unscrupulous men to take advantage of people. Not one per son in a thousand knows when they get the diug they ask for. They cannot know, unless they study medicine. Everybody must depend upo-u the man they buy from. The gross and glaiing frauds practic ed right under the nose of the law, have prompted the establishment of these Kexall stores all over America, Just simply to Insure for people, honest service when buying inedkdnes. Every short time, » Rexail rep resentative suddenly appears and the store is gone over, Stocks are searched for imitations and substi tutes. If any are found and evl dem-e is produced that substitution is practiced, the name Rexail Is publicly withdrawn and it can never be returned. Rexail Is slightly new to the West and naturally' meets with all kinds of opposition from those who are .not appointed. There can be but one Rexail store In each town. But ask anyone from New York, Maasachus ets. Pennsylvania, Ohio, or any eastern state and they will tell you that Rexail drtig stores ire the recognized dtoponser* of Pure Drugs in every city. People will go blocks out of their way to deal at a Rexail store, simply be cause they are sure of what they get. There are plenty of lows on our -daLutes that, If enforced, would protect everyone. But what Is tip good of a law that la never en forced? Ula this farce legislation that has disgusted people; hence the Rexaall stores. By means of these Stores patrons are positively assured of pure drugs, no substi tttlon. reasonable prices, and the servee of regetered trustworthy men. This is written Jn the Interest of the Up-to-Date Drug Company, which Is the recognized Rexail Store, and the only In Lamar and vicinity. A New Bridegroom John G.
