Professor Munyon is honored today
as the leading authority in the medical
world. His new and humane methods
of treatment have swept away I'll the
old fashioned ideas of doctoring with
poisonous drugs that create a dozen
diseases in the effort to get rid of one.
He does not claim that he has one rem
edy that win cure all complaints, but
that he has prepared a specific cure for
nearly every disease. He does claim
that Munyon's Rheumatism Cure will
cure rheumatism; that Munyon's Dyn
pepsia Cure is a positive cure for dys-
pepsia and all stomach troubles; Mum
yon's Cough Cure cures coughs; Mum
yon's Catarrh Remedies cure catarrh;
Munyon's Kidney Cure cures kidney
troubles. The same may be said of all
Munyon's different remedies. They
may be obtained at all drug stores,
mostly at % cents a bottle

only one point decided. that when the
electric road received a franchise it
must provide in return som" local
service. That the majority Want the
road is quite certain, but tnore seems
difficulty in further progress on the
question. 1t looks as if many of us
were entirely selfish in our ideas, too
marrow; we should be broader if we
want to grow broader. Tt is said 1T
takes two to make a bargain. " Let US
meet each other half way and the cleo

have something for our franchise, it
will not do to ask them to take too
much burden at first Ii no more we

IF each one looked at it as affecting
the city as whole and the population

SOLHEIM
Divorce Case to an End.
The Wife's good name vindicated in
her desperate, but honest, effort to
foil the scandal mOngers who would
assail her virtue.

The celebrated Solheim divorce
case is now a thing of the past.
Judge Wright in his charge Tuesday
said the doctor had failed to make
o case.
The doctor in his petition, charged
his wife with unlawful association
with young attorney of Cincinnati,
and with couple of farm hands in
the doctors employ on the farm, and
with gross neglect of duty. The
new evidence introduced failed to
substaniate the charges and the
Court so stated.
Judge Wright said that the doctor
had been mislead when he preferred
these grave charges against his wife,
and said he should have consulted
his wife instead of rushing into court
as he did and as the evidence was
not sufficient he therefore could not
see his way clear to grant divorce,
and further ordered the doctor to
pay his wife money to the amount of
$27OO which he received from her at
the time of their marriage, with six
per cent interest from 1901 up to the
present time and also allowed her
as alimony $4,000, in all " aking about
$4,000.
This case was of unusual import
ance to friends of both residing in
Columbus and Cincinnati where
both previous to their marriage NOV
ed in the highest circles, the doctor
while resident of the latter city was
considered physician of more than
ordinary ability. Mrs. Solheim, nee
Dressed, lived at 1926 Spring Grove
avenue and was teacher of Ger
man in the public schools of Cincin-
natl. She was student of the Art
Museum and number Of her paint
ings are to be found hanging in the
museum. She is graduate of the
Royal Worcester class, and is a lady
ofrefinement and culture.
Mrs. Solheim said she thought
more of the vindication of her good
name than all the money in the
world.
Judge Wright's decision was an
able and exhaustive review of the
case and occupied one hour.

Water Works Trustee.
What We Want is a Man That VIII
Fight for Lower Water Rents.

At the election this spring we as
citizens want to choose a man for
Water Works Trustee who Is in favor
of putting water rents down to a
price in reach of our citizens. We
do not wish to censure the present
board for their opinions about prices
for service, etc., but we do propose
to differ materially from them as to
the price that water should be fur.
nished the consumer in Logan. If the
price of making tap of the mains
should be lowered to two dollars in
stead of four for the consumer to pay,
plumbing at reasonable price and
rents to private consumers about
$4.0O per year there would be 200
more consumers in Logan In one
season. The station is built, the
engineers employed, the pumps
must run any how, and twice the
number of consumers at lower rate
would raise one half more revenue.
Our factories cannot afford to pay
the prices that they are for water.
Keynes Mill pays $4,000 per year,
and we believe that is about on Q half
too much. We have heard many
citizens express their willingness to
use city water If they could get 1t at
a lower rate We are not rich people
as are most residents of property in
cities and we cannot afford to pay
city prices. The fight from this out
will be for the man that is in favor
of lower water rents.

be proud of. 1t Is evidence that
the teachings Of our instructors of
punctuality is having its great

school, are sufficiently thoughtful
to bear up the record for punctual-

HARDNESS.
At last, we have been enable to
pass one month of school work with
out having a single case of tardiness
in any one of the grades. We are
glad to be able to make this report,
for punctuality is one of the prime
essentials in every department of
life, and children should be taught
this lesson early in their career. We
hope to have the hearty cooperation
of every parent in our effort to keep
the record of the school up to this
high standard.
The following lines are quoted from
the advanced sheets of the forth
coming report of the United States
Commissioner of Education:
"The annual statement of the COM
missioner of education to the secre-
tary of the interior summarizes the
immense work that the bureau Of
education now carries on. 1t has
long since demonstrated its indis-
pensableness, and only needs some
what larger appropriation to enable
it to multiply its usefulness many
fold. DIR. Harris has succeeded in
expediting greatly the publication of
the annual reports. That for 1893-4
has been distributed; that for 1884
50 will follow at once, and that for
lS95-96 is nearly ready for the printer.
This is vast improvement over the
old order of things. The latest stat
istics show that 10, 68S, 622 pupils
are enrolled in educational institu-
tions of various kinds and grades.
OF this vast total IA, 944, 526 are in
elementary schools, $50, 7l2 are in
secondary schools, while 204, 3S4 are
in higher institutions. In 1S94-95,
there were 896, 1927 teachers employ
ed. OF colleges and universities, 4Sl
are reported upon, employing 1850 in
structors with an enrolment of 63,
4O2 under graduates and 4273 gradu-
ate students"
DR.. Harris is not only compiling
educational statistics which are very
valuable to every student of the
great questions concerning educa.
tional advancement, but he is en-
deavoring in his earnest and force
able way to place our American
system of education on such firm
basis as to make it beyond all doubt
the leading system in the civilized
world. The educators of the country
realize more forceably perhaps the
worth of this department, than do
any other persons. Why is it, that
this department can not be more
highly honored by the United States
Congress?
