objects 20 Doctors Bill
Doctor G. A. Hinton has brought
suit against the county of Mahaska-
as represented by w. W. Ely, treas
urer, Auditor W. T. Martin and the
board of supervisors. The plaintiff
has caused temporary injunction to
issue against the county restraining
the defendants from paying to DIR.
O. @. Gone S1OOO.O 90, the amount Of a.
claim which is said to be held by that
person for services as a special ply
Tor the county in contagious and in
fictitious diseases. The plaintiff seeks
to have the restraining order made
permanent and sets forth in his petit
ton that the doings of the county in
making contract to pay o. O. Gone
$500 .00. monthly for caring of infect
ious and contagious cases in the
county is contrary to the law provid-
ing for such matters and is void. The,
plainti sets out that the county
asked for bids on the work and that
the lowest one was not taken, that of
James Muir of 5000 90 per month;
also that the county has no right to
employ physician as the statutes
provide that 1.-THE several township
boards and the boards of health of
the cities act in this matter. The
county has therefore made an illegal
contract so it is claimed. The suit
brings out some law points that have
caused much controversy between
city and county organization con-
corning hepowers of each and the
ruling of the court will be awaited
with considerable interest. tits likely
that the supreme codrt will be asked
to present an opinion on the subject.

Mr.. Otis called for the minutes of
the meeting at which the Coloners
committee was ordered to Install the
closets. They read as the Colonel
said they had, authorizing the closets
to be installed This was regarded
as a vindication of Col. Gibbons acts,
but Mr.. Harpman said he had hoped
the closets could be put in at less ad-

created, and a motion by him the
matter was placed in the hands of the

STOMACHS THAT WONT WORK.
That Retain the Food and Ref lse to d.

pepSia TaoletS.

There is cure for dyspepsia. Suf-
ferers who have tried noXious nos
trums will probably be skeptical but
skepticism vanishes when Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets are tried. Wheth
er the trouble is dyspepsia of long
standing, or merely a simple case of
indigestion, relief is prompt and pro-
nounced. The less the trouble the
fewer tablets need be taken.
Heaviness after eating, sour stom-
ach, as indicated by belching, fatigue
with slight eXertion, or with no eXer-
ton at all, disturbed sleep, 'blues,"
these things can commonly be set
down as symptoms of dyspepsia. And
dyspepsia is. merely indigestion in an
aggravated form.
BY promoting perfect digestion,
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets produces
strong nerves, restful, refreshing
sleep, pure blood and good sound
healthy flesh. They make the skin
clear the eyes bright, the mind cheer
full.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are a
medicine and more than medicine.
They digest the food and make it easy
of assimilation, and they relieve the
infamed, diseased condition of the
membrancous Innings and the glands
of the stomach and bowels. They help
the digestive organs over the hard
places, and put them into healthy,
active condition. They effect quick
and permanent cure You don't have
to continue taking them forever, still
it is well to have box handy and
take one at the first return of the
trouble.
Perfectly well people are made sick
by eating too much, or unwholesome
food, but not If they take tablet af-
ter eating. Treatment with Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets does not necessitate
dieting or any change of habits. They
digest the proper food and act upon
the other kind in such a way as to
make it pass off quickly and harmless
ly. You may eat and drink what you
like, when you like, and as much as
you like, If you take a tablet after
wards.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold
by all druggists at so cents for full
size package.

His Right to Do So
Questioned.
he Claimed His Instructions JUST
fled His Acts.

For awhile last night, at the meet
ing OF the Board of Education, it look
ed as though Col. Gibbons would be
accused directly of having overstep-
ped his authority relating to work
done under his direction during his
chairmanshp on the Heating and Ven
tilatihg committee of the old Board.
Questions leading to this were ask
ed by Messrs. Harpham and Otis.
Mr.. Otis asked If the facilities for
installing water closets in the Henry,
Crosby and Kent schools were not in
the same condition as those of the
Miller building--no sewer connections.
At the meeting a week ago the con-
tract for putting closets in the Miller
building was limited by clause read
ing that the closets should not be
put in until sewer was provided in
the vicinity of the school. Col. Glib
bons replied that he had ordered sew
ers constructed to connect with the
Kent and Crosby schools, and that
connections were now being made for
the Henry.
Mr.. Harpman asked if the instruc-
tions to Col. Gibbons committee had
included an order to construct sew
ers.
Our committee was directed" said
