There is probably no agent in the field
of industry that is more generally used,
or that has done more to facilitate the
labor of large number of people, than
the sewing machine. 1t is in use every
| where, in every large or small establish.
ment where materials of all description
are converted into clothing or other use
full articles. In buying a sewing machine
| it is well to select a manufacture that
has been tested thoroughly by many
long years of experience, and not one of
the makes made by cheap labor with
which the market is flooded
The sewing machines manufactured
and put upon the market by the Singer
Manufacturing company are of that de-
pendable character that need only the
name as guarantee of reliability. In
their attitude toward labor it is pleas
ure to record that this company has al
ways been more than fair and reasonable,
showing at all times an active interest in
all questions pertaining to the further
advancement of the cause of conserva-
tive, organized labor.

PRIVATE TELEPHONE GREATER OSKALOOSA|
Important Ruling by Judge
Smythe of Burlington.

Burlington, Dec. Judge Smythe
of the district court has made a de-
cision which is of wide interest and
Importance to farmers all over the
country. He holds that private tele-
phone line, including poles, wires,
etc, are fixtures, and therefore a part
Of the farm. The case was that of the
Wapello Telephone company VS. the
Louisa and Muscatine County Mutual
Telephone company.
The contention of the plaintiff was
that they had constructed a telephone
line from the residence of Mr.. N. r.
Let's on his large stock farm to the
town of Grand View, forming a con-
nection with other lines, which plain
tiff claimed constituted a telephone
system belonging to them as co-part-
ners. Mr.. Let's sold his, the private
line, to the Wapello Telephone COM
pany, and afterwards sold the farm
to Brockaway C Sons without max
ing any reservation on the telephone
line. The Brockaway then sold the
line to the Louisa and Muscatine
County Mutual Telephone Company
the defendants herein. The plaintiff
then attempted to enjoin the defend
ants from using the line, contending
the nature of the telephone system
was sufficient notice to the purchaser
of the farm that the line belonged to
other parties, which is analogous with
the corresponding rule of railroads
and telegraph companies across a
farm. Defendant insisted that the
telephone line was part of the realty
and a fixture of the farm, because OF
it's permanent character. The con-
tention was adopted by the judge, who
decided accordingly. The decision
will have wide effect, as the country
throughout Iowa and adjoining states
is dotted with these private telephone
lines and according to Judge Smythe's
decision they belong as much to the
farmer as do the fences on his farms
which connect with the fences of 9th.
err owners and form a continuous line
boundary.

result of the years he has spent in
searching for this precious life-givtng
boon, to cure any and every disease
that is known to the human body
There is no doubt Of the doctors earn
estness in making his claim, and the
remarkable cures that he is daily Of
fecting seems to bear him out very
strongly. His theory which he ad
vances Is one Of reason and based on
sound experience in a medical prae
tice of many years. 1t costs nothing
to try his remarkable Elixir of Life,
as he calls 1t, for he sends 1t free, to
anyone who is a sufferer, in sufficient
quantities TO convince its ability to
cure, so there is absolutely no risk TO
run. Some of the cures cited are very
remarkable and but for reliable wit
nesses would hardly be credited. The
lame have thrown away crutches and
walked about after two or three trials
Of the remedy. The sick, given up by
home doctors, have been restored to
their families and friends in perfect

aches, nervousness, fevers, consump

throat, lungs or any vital organs, are
easily overcome in a space Of time
that is simply marvellous.
Partial paralysis, locomotor ataXia

quickly and permanently removed
It purifies the entire system, blood and
tissues, restores normal nerve power

DON'TOVERLOOK THIS
A careful Perusal Will Prove Its
Value to Every 0skaloosa
Reader.

The average man is doubter, and
there is little wonder that this is so.
Misrepresentation make people
skeptics. Nowadays the public ask
for better evidence than the testi-
mony of strangers. Here is proof
which should convince every Oska-
loosa reader:
Mr., Walter Johnson, proprietor OF
the wood yard, First avenue west
next door to Hagan & Smiths livery
stable says: 81 was taken with q
pain across the lower part of my
back on both sides of my spine. Its

.DISTILLERY IN IOWA
Revenue Report Makes Interest
ing Revelation.

Washington, Dec. 1.-The annual
report Of the commissioner Of inter.
nal revenue, the advance sheets of
which has been given to the press, in
cludes some figures of interest to
! Iowa.
Under the heading "distilleries"
Illinois looms up with long and wide
columns of figures, while Iowa is on
record as possessing a single distil-
lery. This is doubtless one more than
the average Iowan supposed existed in
the state, although the memory of the
great distillery is still fresh. 1t APP
pears that Iowa's solitary distillery
is a concern which manufactures, ex-
elusive, fruit brandy. The report
does not indicate the location of the
distillery, but gives the information
that during the fiscal year the total
output reached the enormous guam
tity of 1876 gallons. While it may be
said that no spirits were distilled in
Iowa during the year, 100000 gallons
were imported into the state and rec
titled.
1t appears that Iowa has twenty
one rectifiers engaged in taking the
raw product from the still and con-
verting it into the finished article.
There are 4,418 retail dealers in IL
quors and seventy-four wholesale
dealers. Twenty-four preweries are
in operation and 665 dealers in malt
goods and 500 wholesalers. The ap-
proximate value of the malt liquors
produced was $305,000.
The tobacco industry flourishes in
Iowa. The figures are: Fine cut to-
bacco produced, 22,75O pounds; smok-
ing, $4,000; snuff, $780,. Manufactur-
ers of tobacco, 10; cigar factories,
667. During the year 1,7O7,56O pounds
of tobacco were used in the manufac-
ture of 95,OO0,000 cigars.
Number of claims on account re-
bate-act of March, 1901 ,439;
amount already allowed under the act
100000.
Iowa has one factory producing
what is known as mixed flour. The
output of the mill is not indicated,
but the amount of tax paid was
$2OO.1O.
The record shows that 1886 was
paid by Iowa on account of oleomarg-
arine during the year, divided $500
for manufacturer and $50 for retail
dealers, of which latter there were
two. 1t appears from these figures
that one Iowa concern has been pro-
ducing oleo and that two retailers
have been dispensing the compound.
There are no wholesalers in the state.
Taxes were imposed upon the fol
lowing miscellaneous enterprises:
Bankers, LAOS; brokers in stocks,
bonds, etc., 109; pawn brokers, 3d.;
billiard tables and bowling alleys,
3,647; circuses, z; other exhibitions,
1868; theaters, 10; dealers. in grain
and securities Is. Total number of
persons and concerns Of all kinds and
classes paying taxes, 1888. Total
amount of assessments, $4,000.
During the year 73 suits were be-
gun by United States district attor-
neys. OF these 35 were decided in
favor of the United States and only
two adversely. Twenty-six suits were
either dismissed or abandoned; 10
are now pending. Fines recovered,
81, 900. Seizures of property on &C
count of violation OF internal revenue
laws; spirits, 6SS gallons, valued at
1853; beer vadlue at $1,000.

stuff that has been on sale here this
week has been common and this is
dragging badly and selling at
extremely low prices. A considerable
amount of common stuff was moved
today at 50 to 1925, while right good
stockers sold at $2.75@S. Mich cows
steady.
Hogs-Receipts show a slight gain
over last week, but are running far be-
hind the corresponding period a year
ago. After holding up well for several
days, the market slumped today. The
drop, however, did not amount to as
much here as at other points and the
few hogs that were in found quick
sale. The quality of the stuff coming
continues to be largely common, but
is selling at splendid prices. Our hog
market is by far the best in the West.
Sheep--Receipts thus far this week
show a total of about 1890 head,
against 1850 head for the first four
days of last week. The bulk Of the
stuff, however, has been billed to East
ern points or direct to feeders, so that
the supply has not been large. De-
mand is good for everything except
the very common stuff and prices fully
steady. Very truly,
