How often we hear the above re-

That remedy is the well-known prep
aration, HALES COUGH CORDI-

DIED.

At Mt. Pleasant, Iowa, Tuesday,
March 18th, 1877, Mrs. X. E. WAL
TERs, in the forty-sixth year of her
age.
Keziah +. Thompson was born in
Germantown, Montgomery Co., Ohio,
July 9Th, 1881, and came with her pa
rents to Cedar county, Iowa, in 1913.
Sept. 2Sth, 1913, she was married to
Joseph Walters. In 1853 sho united
with the Cumberland Pres'n Church
at Pedee, but in 1855, on removing to
Upton, changed her membership to
the NJ. L. Church of this place. Two
years ago disease clouded her mind to
such an extent that care in an institu-
ton for that purpose became lmpera-
tive, and she was thereupon taken to
the asylum at Mt. Pleasant. Her
husband, two. daughters and one son
survive her, one daughter having gone
before.

TIE GOSPEL TEMPERANCE MEET
mo was held last Thursday evening
in the NJ. +. Church pursuant to an
nouncement. 1t was opened by pray
er and singing, scripture reading and
remarks by Rev. s. A. Lee. Mr.. Lee
then introduced Mr.. Philips, better
known as "Buckskin Jo,' who talked
ten or fifteen minutes. He argued
that God furnished from the labra-
tories of nature every kind of water
except "fire-water." which certain
ly was not intended for man to use.
True, he said, it was made from grain,
and grain was wholesome: but it
couldn't be natural or right to so
abuse 1t that man could take about
four bushels in one swallow" When
the Indian gets whiskey, he drinks
himself beastly drunk as quickly as
possible out his brutal nature
through the several stages until he
lies in the gutter. Then he probably
will not touch it again for weeks
The worst enemies Of temperance, how
ever are the white men who keep half
drunk on the sly" all the time and
are yet able to keep OH their feet and
attend to their business. But if they
keep on, its only a question Of time
how soon they will be "whols drunk
in public" The speaker then related
his own experience in keeping half
drunk on the sly; how he resolved not
to drink at all, and how he kept his
resolution he claimed "any
man who IL man can do"
Mr.. Jacob Schell, the German who
once served the ADVERTISER to To-
cal by determining to drive home on
the railway track, compelling engin-
eer Dutton to stop the train and lead
the team off into an adjacent field,
was the next speaker. In very brok-
en- English he told his story in few
words. He never drank to be = drunk
ard, but he was one; and though he
often tried he never could reform un-
til he came to Christ-''Dats repen-
tansh"-then the bad appetite left
him and he drank NO more.
Mr.. Greenhow related in q very
impressive manner an instructive ex-
perlence. He, too, escaped through
prayer. Mr. Porter witnessed to the
efficiency of the same means; and 9th
srs present made remarks Of more or
less pertinency-two gentlemen rela-
ting successful battle fought with
tobacco through prayer.
Renewed prayer and effort for all
whe need was urged and pledged, and
the meeting closed with singing and
bensdiction.

"BUckskIN JoE" occupied the
City Hall Friday and Saturday eve
nings with lectures upon life among,
and the habits and traditions of Amer
lean Indians. "Washakosha," or
"Buckskin" Joe, il the Indian, OF
frontier name Of Joseph Phillips, a
man about thirty-five years of age and
a native of Cascade, Dubuque county,
in this State. At the age of not quite
ten years. 10 was captured by the ar.
apahoes while ON the way to Califor-
MIA with u party Of thirty-one-ali but
three Of whom, Joe and two girls in
their teens, were nlassacred on the
spot. Five years he spent among the
capturing tribe, without seeing a
white face, and eleven more he vibra-
ted between his Indian home and the
extreme frontier posts where he OBJ
tanned occasional employment as
guide, scout or dispatch bearer.
These facts, together with incidents,
anu tIt
used in his lectures-which he gives
in the full trappings Of an Indian
brave. His education is wholly gain
ed by observation and comparison,
and his use of English language,
which he can yet read but indiffer-
entity, has been almost entirely ac-
quired during the few years he has
been travelling and lccturing in the
States.
His manner of speaking III public
is natural and unaffected, and he com
bines not little instruction, as well
as many apt conclusions and sugges-
tions, with entertaining description OF
savage life and habits quite num-
Der Of Indian weapons and imple-
ments being appropriately exhibited.

DEATH OF S. A. BIssELL.
Bissell," who early and late, seven
days in u week, could have been seen
on the streets of Upton almost with
out interruption for nearly forty years,
Is no more. No man of all the citizens
OF the town would be more surely or
more distinctly remembered by the
transient visitor or the former resi-
dent than S. A. Bissell. His death,
which occurred at ten o'clock last
Sunday evening, removes landmark,
and most forcibly reminds Us how a
generation is passing from among us.
The County Bar Association, which
assumed the management of the
funeral services on Tuesday, appointed
. committee to whom we may no
doubt look for the fuller biographical
sketch which should accompany a
formal obituary. The burial, as indi-
Gated. occurred ut two p. M. on Tues
day, Rev. J. X. Bloom officiating.
Mr.. and Mrs. Adam Lyle, of Cresco,
the latter sister OF the deceased, and
Mr.. Myron Childs, son-in-law, were
in attendance, as also was almost the
entire bar Of the county and numerous
citizens. Messrs. l.. l.. Sweet, w. NJ.
