Realize it now.

When the back aches from kidney
ills,
When urinary troubles annoy you,
There's certain way to find relief,
A sure way to be cured,
Doan's Kidney Pills will do it.
Oskalooosa people endorse this
claim:
Mr.. Thomas Terrell of 61S North

part of my back there was pain or
feeling of uneasiness which coupled
with the fact that my kidneys were
somewhat out of order caused me to
think that ought to take something
for it before further complications

COAL NINE STRIKE.
Two Hundred Miners Out Near
Des Moines.

Des Moines, Sept 2.--About 200
members of the Carbonate union of
the United Mine Workers of Iowa
are out under an order from District
President Reese ordering a suspen-
sion until differences between the
miners and the management are adj
justed.
Some days ago the company re-
duced its night force by laying off
several miners. 1t is claimed that
when the night force was restored
the management did not -reinstate
the men laid off, but put on other
men. The union claims that one of
the clauses of the contract it had
with the Carbonate Coal company
and which it is alleged the Smith
Lowe company agreed to carry out
when it took over the property, is
that when force is reduced it is to
be with the understanding that the
men who are laid off first are to be
reinstated first. The miners de-
manded that this clause in the con-
tract be complied with, the manage
ment refused and President Reese
ordered the suspension.

LObenstein's Racket Store: Has Close
Call by Fire.

A smalliblaze in the Racket Satur

created quite stir on the south side.
The west window had been decorated
with long strips of colored crepe
tissue paper. In some manner one OF
the strips got in line with the flames
from the gas jet. Mr.. Lobenstein and
most of the clerks were in the back
of the store and did not notice the
blaze until Art Fritch who was pass
ing on the walk outside came in and
warned them. A few minutes work
put out the fire and the company was
not called out. Had it remained un'
discovered few moments longer,
however, tits probable that the wood
work would have caught and serious
damage resulted. AS it was the trim

THE FAIR.
ACCESSIBILITY of Mahaska County
Fall Festival in Question.

A meeting of the Board of Directors
of the Mahaska County Agricultural
Association was held at the Office of
Secretary Walter Burrell Saturday
afternoon, and matters of utmost i'm
portance to the association were I'M
der consideration The adVisability
OF having fair this year was care
fully gone over and the matter has
not yet been fully determined. There
will be another meeting of the d.
rectors Wednesday and then the ac-
ton of the Board will be final.
The Board decided upon reopening
the entry lists for the races with the
hope that more horses might be Sc
cured for the meeting. AS the matter
now stands some of the races on the
program have not filed.
1t is felt by the directors..that some
sort of definite actionl is necessary
for the good of theJ association and
every effort will be made to have the
fair on the dates advertised. 1t is
very probable that the reopening of
the entry lists and the abandoning of
dates by other organizations in the
state will give Oskaloosa a better
chance.

There were special services at the
Central Methodist Episcopal church

ering at o'clock in the afternoon

to him.
Mrs. Ada M. Sheffield of Chicago

morning and favored the congrega-

POISON IN CELLARS.
RottinE Vegetables and Fruits Pro-
ducc CRrbonic Gas. n Deadly
Disease breeder

Says J. j. II. Gregory. the well-known
scotsman and vegetable grower: "A
cellar may be more valuable than the
building which stands on il when the
farmer has learned just how to control
its temperature and dryness for the
best keeping of his vegetables"
Cellars have generally been found TO
be unhealthy. Vegetables are frequent
/ ly left over to rot. While rotiing. car
bonic acid gas is formed This gas is
heavier than common air, and settles
10 the bottom of the cellar. 1t is very
unhealthy, and people when entering
the cellar are liable TO breathe IT, If
sufficiently pure and breathed alone it
would soon cause death. In a section
much affected with a malignant fever
1t was found that in every case where
the fever prevailed there was a cellar,
while the houses where there were
no cellars were generally exempt.
Where cellars are thus used COW
cred drain of proper size leading out
ward from the bottom of the cellar
should be constructed. The construc-
ton should be such that the drain can
be opened and closed at pleasure. BY
opening occasionally the foul air can
be drained off. Ii is, however, believed /
that the better plan will be to abandon
the cellar altogether A house Of prop
er size can be constructed with a
double floor and double walls from
to y feet apart. Fill between
the walls with sawdust or fine earth.
Double doors should be constructed,
one in either end, say, 5x21s feet The
inner door may be constructed to slide.
Houses constructed as above gave en-
tire satisfaction and were free from
the deleterious effects Of carbonic acid
gas.-Bryan Tyson. in Farm and Home.

must be taken up in order to dig hole.
An excellent plan is shown in the cut.
Set out small stakes in the exact spot
where each tree is to stand. Make a
hight tripod, as is shown in the cut,
with a cord and weight, arranged as
shown. Set the tripod over the stake
80 that the weight at the end of the
cord will be exactly over the stake.
Now pull up the stake and dig the hole
for the tree, without moving the tri-
pod. Set the tree so that when the
weight is lowered it will touch the
trunk. In this way every tree will
stand finally in the exact position of
the row Of stakes first set out.-Amer-
