Divine Heaters Barred
From the Mails.

The Postoffice Department has
decided to bar alleged divine
healers from the use of the mails
in advertising their pretended
supernatural powers. 1t was
discovered the other day that one
of these imposters has been en-
deavoring to collect money from
a dead woman in Missouri, who
had been one of their patients,
but unknown to him had died
during the treatment given to her
through the mails.

Chief Justice Whitfield handed
down an opinion Wednesday in
the case of the Western Assur-
ance Company VS.. MaryB. Phelps,
an appeal from Warren county
circuit court, which is of great
interest to insurance companies
and insurers, in as much as it
knocks the three-quarter clause
sky'high in policies issued under
the Act of 1896, and affirms the
decision of the lower court, which
was to the effect that insurance
companies must pay what they
promise. The court said: THE
three-quarter clause is nugatory.
An insurance company must de-
termine the valuation of property.
1t can then insure such part of
that valuation as the parties agree
on, but whatever amount it does
insure, receiving premiums on
that, is the final measure of it's
liability in case of total loss and
it can not reduce this amount by
inserting in the policy provisions
seeking to impose upon the in
sured the burden of co-insurer.
The amount named in the policy,
and on which amount the insured
pays premiums, is practically
liquidated damages in case of a
total loss.
There is nothing harsh about
this law. 1t was manifestly en-
acted to meet and remedy
thoroughly we'll known evil, and
is as perfectly part of the con-
tract, before written into it, as
any other stipulation therein.
The statute supervines all poll
cles issued under it and writes
out of them all stipulations incon-
sistent with itself. 1t is also set
tied that when several concur
rent policies on building have
been written with the consent of
the respective companies, each
company for the full amount of
its policy under statutes like
this.
The court further held, in ac-
cordance with many decisions,
that the acceptance of policy
containing three-quarter clause,
provided it be issued under the
Act of 1896, is no waver of that
Act, the court saying: The
public declared by the statute
cannot thus be contracted
away"
The court states that it was
dealing of course with a policy
issued under the Act of 90 and
as to which the testimony showed
the concurrent insurance was
assented to. Obviously, to hold
that the statute does not apply to
a policy permitting concurrent
insurance would repeal the stat
ute, except in the few cases
where there was but a single
nolicy.

QUESTION ANSWERED.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the civ
ilized world. Your mothers and grand
mothers never thought of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilious
ness. Doctors were scarce. and they
seldom heard of Appendicitis. Nervous
Prostitution or Heart failure, etc. They
used August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation of I'M
digested food regulate the action of the
liver, stimulate the nervous and oragnic
action of the system, and that is all
they took when feeling dull and bad
with headaches and other aches. YOu
only need few doses of Green's August
Flower, in liquid form, to make you
satisfied there is nothing serious the
matter with you. For sale by r. L..

and taught hundreds Of tricks
which 1t must be broken of after
ward.
If you can teach your child Obedi-

much the better. Don't whip such
a child. 1t is cruelty. But If he

While gentle, respectful and obedi-
