DESERTERS OF FAMILIES.

A good many offenses are punish
able by a Jail sentence. bill is In
both houses of the legislature, making
a penalty of six months imprison-
ment in Jail for desertion of family.
1t is no punishment to the offender,
but is a punishment of the commun-
ity. Aside from the expense of a trial
and conviction, 1t will cost Taxpayers
over 500 to board man in Jail half a
year.
A man mean enough to abandon his
family is too low to feel the disgrace of
term in jail. Therefore, 1t is no
punishment to him. and he is ahead
six months on rent. board, washing.
A man was lately sent to our jail AT
hard labor" for IL months. But there
is no labor Do we punish him? We
stick taxpayers for 5000 to 5000
that's all we do.
Most statutes having a jail sentence
are faulty in that. They mulct the
wrong parties.
A deserter of his family should be
sent to prison, and made to work. It
salivates him, work does, and the pub
lis recoups itself by his work for the
cost of his keep.
We'd like to see the public whipping
post set up for such offenders. Thu
sight would not be brutal or democrat
izing, but wholesome. 1t would be an
exhilarating, righteous object-lesson

or pride, and no moral sense to take
it out of.
In default of the whipping post shut
him up in prison and work him like

cosIal't Live uIilsgt one.

The whole trouble lies in the stomach
that's plain enough. Butwe can't afford to
remove the stomach and we can't afford to
let it be destroyed by disease. 1t is the
most important organ of the body and we
couldn't live without 1t.
The stomach prepares the food for making
the blood that nourishes every organ and
tissue of the body. Without good, rich
blood the heart becomes weak, the lungs
break down, the liver becomes choked and
the kidneys are strained beyond endurance.
There is no disease, except the consequence
Of injury, that is not directly caused or
aggravated by disorders Of the stomach.

GOING TO PHILIPPINES.
rDayanport T .eader.

The announcement that Professor
Joseph Allen, for several years the Ell
ficient and popular principal of school,
No. IL, has decided to remove from this
city and take up his future residence
in the Philippine islands. has caused
universal regret among his numerous
friends here, who, altho they dislike to
see him remove from their midst, will
nevertheless wish him abundant sue
cess and prosperity in his new field OF
labor. Professor Allen had become reSt-
ognized as one of the most efficient and
leading educational instructors in Scott
county. His services We're always IN
great demand for institute work and he
was one of the principal instructors 10
the Davenport institute which is the
evening branch of the German free
school. His splendid showing as the
candidate on the democratic ticket for
the office of county superintendent OF
schools is we'll remembered by the vot-
ers OF the city Professor Allen, ac-
companied by his wife and child, will
leave tomorrow morning for San Fran
CISCO from which point they will sail
for the Philippines via Honolulu. Tbs
best wishes of all their friends follow
them upon their long voyage.
GOOD SCHOOL RECORD.
tSioux City Journal
At the close of the last semester OF
the public schools, ninety-one pupils
completed their work in the graded
schools and We're given promotion to
the high school, the commercial school,
or any other advanced educational
work they might choose to take UP.
OF this number 1t is an interesting
fact to note that all except seventeen,
or more than 81 per cent, have contin-
ued in their educational training; and
of these seventeen, eight are planning
to enter the high school or commercial
department at the beginning of the
school year next fall. In fact. less than
10 per cent of the pupils who succeeded
quit the schools at that point to begin
the work of earning their own living.
OF the ninety-one who We're promot-
ed from the grades f1fty-nine entered
the high school. twelve entered the
commercial school. three went to other
schools, eight are planning to enter the
high school next fall, two left the city
and seven have not entered and prob
ably will not enter any other education
al school.
Superintendent Kratz states that this
represents about the average percent
age of those who continue in education-
al work after completing the grades. II
pupil succeeds in getting past the
eighth grade he generally has an ambi-
ton to further improve himself in
some school.
Pupils drop out of school work In the
lower grades. When boy or girls gets
old enough to work In some store or at
some trade he or she in many cases
thinks little enough Of the educational
opportunities at hand to leave school
That is why so large proportion OF
children Of school age in the city are
not in school.

We can stop eating. Some people have
been forced to do it for awhile, and few
have deliberately tried to do it. A few
years ago one man voluntarily went without
eating for forty days and nights; but at the

The ether way.

1t Ia evident that we can't live without
food and we can't maintain good health any
length of time on half rations When the
stomach is weary and refuses to work, we
must devise some plan besides starvation to
give 1t rest. There is only one other way,
and that is to do the stomach's work for it.
There are great many preparations that
will aid the digestion OF food Some of
them help digest starchy foods, such as
bread and potatoes and cereals; Others help
digest albuminous and heterogeneous foods,
such as eggs and meat and cheese. Most
of these preparations are good as far as they
60, but they do not go far enough. Nature
EVERYTHING we eat must he thoroughly
digested. Partial digestion may relieve for
time, but it cannot cure dyspepsia.

longer digest food? We must not allow our
bodies to become saturated with the poison

by serious and probably fatal results; and
we must not wreck the nervous system by

The result has been more than it at first

its continue use never failed to bring about

BEULAH.

Beulah, Sept. 23.-On Tuesday
afternoon, 10Th inst. Mrs. Asa Tayler
visited Mrs. Pooley. Wednesday Mrs.
Fraser called and bought a load Of
pumpkins and squashes.
Our first hard frost on the 18th
disclosed to view about five thousand
ripe and practically ripe musk and
watermelons. The fowls, pigs and
cows are still rejoicing over the event.
Those melons. were late planted with
with corn on sod and covered half
the ground.
On the morning of the 18th the
greatest. wonder of this age Of
wonders was the appearance out here
of a procession which wendell its way
not only along the highway but across
fields.
One told us it was Old Settlers
picnic day in Blendon. We neglected
to advance the cash for our home
paper so didn't know but such was
the case and we were left. Another
told us that it was Pettigrew and his
party locating townsites along their
old railroad survey and on that ele-
walton where they halted would
spring up the great manufacturing
city Of Hagervllle, and within five
years that whole quarter section
would be as full of holes as a pepper
box cover out Of which water would
pour in continuous streams at cost
.of almost nothing and that half of
Mitchell would move into this city,
lust to hear the music Of the waters.
Finally along came Banker Helmeir,
of Mechanicsville, Iowa, and told us
our land would be worth fifty dollars
per acre. He has a half section across
the road also twenty thousand acres
in North Dakota. He said that
procession was the Lund Land
Agency's. Then we understood how
lone man could entertain that crowd
by pulling stubble for half an hour
and showing it the gold dollar On
the roots. AlIhail to the land agents.
We're it not for them we would never
now our land had a price, this country
would have few settlers and the
poeple Of the east would remain
stuck in the mud and die compare
