A Mother Tells How She Saved Her Lille
Daughters Life.

am the mother of eight children
and have had a great deal of expert
ence with medicines. Last summer my
little daughter had the dysentery in its
worst form. We thought she would
die l tried everything l could think
of, but nothing seemed to do her any
good. l saw by an advertisement in
our paper that Chamberlain's Collie
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was
highly recommended and sent ard got
a bottle at once. 1t proved to be one
OF the very best medicines we ever had
in the house. 1t saved my little daugh-
ter's life. | am anxious for every
mother to know what an excellent
medicine it is. Had 1 known it at first

The cold nights are a source of great
worry to the farmers as we'll they may
be for one heavy frost will spoil their
summers work. 1t is said that there
was light frost on low lands. Tues
day morning, and Wednesday morning
early was about as cold. Some of the
farmers were predicting a frost for
Wednesday night. If a frost should
come at this time and DESTROY the
crops, the farming communities would
think they were out for all the i'll
luck going this year.

west of town, this morning, by being
struck on the side of the head with an
iron bar. His injuries were attended
to by DIR. Houck. 1t will be several
days before he will be able to resume
work.
George w. Wilson'S residence, at s17
West Mechanic street, was destroyed by
fire about 10 o'clock this morning, and
owing to the high wind which prevail
ed at the time the fire de-
partment experienced considerable diff.
ficulty in preventing the flames spread
ing to adjoining property. 1t is not
known how the fire originated. There
had not been any of the members OF
the family at home since early morn
ing. There had been fire in the cook
stove for the purpose of preparing the
morning meal and it is probable that
live embers which were left in the
stove are directly responsible Tor the
loss. The building was one-story
frame structure, valued at about $500
on which there was $3.50 insurance in
the Iowa State Insurance company, Of
Keokuk. Most of the contents were re-
moved, and sustained but little dam

nRPrsLIcAN MEETING.
Ottumwa Speakers Addressed an En-.
thusIastic Audience at Chiliieothe.
From Wednesdays Daily.

From Wednesdays Daily.
Last evening A. w. Buchanan, Major
Samuel Mahon and Capt. S. H. Harper
presented the truth to the people of
Chillicothe as seen through republican
spectacles, and their remarks were
listened to with that attention which
shows the interest and thought of the
people of that locality. The speakers
were accompanied by John spry, B. f.
SHUTS. j. H. r. Spilman and S. a..
l5uckner. The meeting was held in
the school house and was largely at
tended.
a. w. Buchanan opened the meeting
with ten minutes talk on the issues,
and his argument, listened to with deep
attention. stamped him as thinker.
Capt. S. Il. Harper followed him with a
talk on trusts and the Philippine ques-
lion. The trust argument was espec-
tally convincing and put the matter in
a new light before his hearers. Major
Mahon, speaking from the standpoint
of an old soldier, reviewed the Philip
pine situation. Stale issues, however.
occupied the most Of the speakers
time, and he took the ground that the
state of Iowa had been republican for
fifty years, with the exception of the
terms of Horace Boies. and during that
time there had been no scandal in re-
gard to misinanagement OF public
funds; the state is out OF debt and is
under business administration.
Messrs. Buckner and Spilnlan followed
with a few remarks relative to the sit
uation locally and the meeting adj
jouSned with demonstrations of enthu-
siasm.

To Whom 1t May Concern;
This is to certify that G. w. Buck.
ner was principal of our schools from
the fall of 1890 to the spring of 1892
and that we were members Of the
school board during that period.
That his department while with us
was that of perfect gentleman; that
as teacher he was well qualified, be-
ing efficient, diligent, thorough and
fully up to date in his profession.
He was one of the best teachers we
ever had in our schools, and we fee
confident, if elected as school superin
tendent of Wapello county, his work
will be ably done, and we are pleased
to give this recommendation of q
worthy man. (signed)
