Coroner David Halves has instruc-
lions from Mrs. Jessie Barrett that
the remains Of her late husband,
Walter T.. Barrett, be exhumed and a
post norton examination conducted.
Mrs. Barrett makes sensational &C.
cusations against Rock Island ply
stefan. whose name she does not
mention in the communication in
Coroner Hawes' possession, and de-
mands that the state corroborate
them by an investigation, which she
is positive will prove the physician
referred to guilty Of criminal prac-
tice.
Walter Barrett will be remem bered

evening of Dec. 81 ut his residence
on Nineteenth street. The previous
morning, Mrs. Barrett declares, her
husband was in comparatively good
health. having discharged his custe-
mary tasks about the house. On
leaving home about 8 o'clock he
said he was going to receive a
treatment which he was submitting
to daily for ailments with which he
was afflicted.

panying him, she says, did not in

bands sudden change. Mr.. Barrett
gradually weakened and 80 hours
aiterward passed away.
Mrs. Barrett accuses the physician
OF criminally operating upon her
husband, a fact which she ultimately
became aware Of. She further
claims that the doctor conducted
the operation without professional
assistance, a fact which she alleges
is sufficient to impeach the MUSICIAN
in question. 1t was said that Mr..
Barrett's death was due to peritoni-
tbs.
Coroner Halves states that he will
take no action on the request until
he consults the states attorney,
which he proposes doing immedi-
ately.
The body was buried at Port Byron

MTith q better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge that so many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families. and is
everywhere esteemed SO higEly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness, without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. Its therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine article,
which is manufactured by the California
Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold by all rep
utable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, then laxa-
tives or other remedies are not needed.
If afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
then one should have the best, and with
the well-informed everywhere, Syrup Of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.
