Mrs. Louisa Esklund, a carpet weaver, has an advertisement in The
Mail. Mrs. Ecklund uses the celebrated Newcomb fly-shuttle
loom.
Frank Wyman, Jr. set apart all the proceeds of last Saturday's
popcorn sales for the benefit of the destitute people of
Nebraska. The youthful vendor's charitable effort is worthy of
the highest commendation.
