County Treasurer short.

Iowa City, June 20. There is in ugly
rumor afloat to the effect that there is
a shortage of funds in the office of the
county treasurer, variousiy estimated
at from $4,000 to. $4,000, coupled with
many ideas and hints as to where the
money has gone, and among other
things that it has already been ascer-
tanned that the shortage commenced
as far back as seven or eight years
ago, or before the present incumbent
was elected to office.
County Treasurer Cherry did not
make his annual financial report at
the June session of the board of sup
ervisors, as is customary, and gave the
reason that there was discrepancy
between the balance shown by the
books and the amount i'll the treasury
of about $4,000. This condition greatly
surprised Mr.. Cherry, who Immediately
entered into private investigation Of
the matter. What the Investigation
will reveal is not known.

The Crime OF Motherhood.

Can motherhood be crime Under any circum-
stances? Nature says. YVES" By the sight Of
the cries of the thousand children walng in daily
misery, motherhood can be crime against Nature.
Nature never permits ignorance Of her laws to
excuse guilt or mitigate punishment The father
eats sour grapes and vthe children teeth set on
edge" The mother enters on maternal duties she is
UNFIT to discharge and is punished in her own suffer-
ing and the weakness of her child. The greatest
endowment any mother can give her child is sound
healthy body. Every mother owes her child that
body It is a bitter thing for the tender mother
heart to feel responsibility for the shpwreck of a
childs life, too weak to do battle with the gales
which sweep across lfe's sea- The mother cannot
give the child what she herself does not possess
The first step toward happy motherhood is health.
