No stronger endorsement of the Cou-
rier's superiority as an advertising me-
dunn could be asked for than the
above letter. Everyone within hun
dred miles of Ottumwa knows the firm
of Jordan & Sons. The house is one of
the Oldest in the city and during its
time probably no retail firm in Iowa
has distributed more goods. The pres
tige that the house has maintained in
all these years, and the stability of its
patronage has been acquired in no
other way than by honesty towards its
customers and in the excellent quality
Of the goods it has carried. A house
that has for thirty-two years maintain
ed the respect and admiration of its
vast trade by honest dealing is GER
tainly to be believed when it makes \
frank statement as to its advertising.
Jordan g. Sons have a business Sec
opd to none in the city. They handle
dry; goods, cloaks and suits, clothing
and gents furnishings, carpets, and cur
tains. They use three floors of their
double building on Main street and no
house in the city carries such complete
lines in the different departments. The
>ASeA16 NSHtA4 C4AASAlS ou lLC ilISl
floor, occupying a space 25x15o, crowd
ed with ready made clothing and gents
furnishings. The dry goods depart
ment, also on the first floor, covers a
wide range of attractions in this line
and if you fail to find what you desire
here it is of little use to seek else
where. 1t occupies a space 25x15O.
On the second floor one room, 26xs0,
Is occupied wholly with ladies' suits,
cloaks and wraps, another room 26xsO
is taken up with curtains, window
hangings and shades, and still another
room 5ox7o is used to display carpets,
oil cloths and linoleums. Only the best
and most reliable lines and makes of
goods are carried and it is in honest
dealing with the best of materials that
has kept this house in the front as one
of Ottumwa's leading mercantile es-
adjustments.
The Courier highly appreciates the
candid endorsement of its splendid adj
vertising advantages from such a sta

THE HEALTH REPORT.
There Were Only Eleven Deaths in
Ottumwa in September.

There were only eleven deaths in the
city of Ottumwa during the month of
September, just past, which is less
than half the number recorded for Au-
gust this year. The month has been
exceptionally healthful, and the city
is fortunate to have such small death
rate. These figures are shown by the
monthly report of DR.. j. +. Herrick,
physician to the board of health, which
will be submitted to that body at the
regular board meeting next Monday
evening. During the month there
We're eighteen communicable diseases
reported, fifteen of which were cases
OF typhoid fever. Twenty-seven per
cent of the total number of deaths
were children under years of age.
There were three under one year of
age, three between 1 and years, and
three between and 5 years. The fol-
lowing is the report in detail:

1t is one of the peculiar properties of
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
that it eliminates from the blood the ef-
