THE ODD PENNIES.

For the sake of saving odd
pennies do not buy an inferior
emulsion of cod-liver oil when
you really need SCOTS Emul-
sion.
SCOTS Emulsion costs more
to buy because it costs more
to make.
The difference in price is
pennies. The difference in
results is pounds-pounds of
hesh-and days of new
strength and comfort.
The consumptive and others
who have lost flesh get more
cod-liver oil into their systems
by means of SCOTS Emulsion
than in any other way. sr

Mrs. William Houston is missing
with four small children, from hen
home in Keokuk. The family arrived
there. travelling by wagon from La
Crosse. and located in Keol<uk, where
Houston proceeded to open a feed
store. Inc fleeing woman took no
money or clothing other than her
garb of the day. The woman, whose
name was Kate Malone, has been sub
iect to fits of mental depression,
sometimes rising almost to mania.
She was married at Mt. Pleasant, and
for some time thereafter was resi-
dent of this city, living latterly at La
Crosse. 1t is the surmise that she
has destroyed herself and all her lit
tie ones.
At the suggestion of Mayor Becker,
City Clerk McGee has had a lot of
blank forms printed which he will
fill out on the day of each council
meeting. so that one may be laid on
the table of each alderman before
the meeting opens. The sheet will
show the exact condition of all the
city funds on the day preceding the
previous council meeting, the order
drawn on such funds since that date,
and the exact condition of the funds
at the time the sheet was made out.
Thus the aldermen will be kept CON
versapt with the financial condition
of the city in every department, and
in authorizing work to be done or
money to be paid out, they will
know exactly how well equipped the
city is to pay the bills.
The jury in the appeal case of the
State vs.. Norman Jasper, the bill col

afternoon. The panel returned Il
sealed verdict less than half an hour
after. When opened in court yester-
day morning the verdict was found
to be for the defendant, who was at
once let go, eXonerated from the

Moline friends of Mrs. James Gala
CHER, who has sister in this city
will be interested in the following
from Iowa City telling of the end of
her trial for the murder of her hus-
band: Not guilty" That is the YER
diet in the case of the State of Iowa
VS. Mrs. James Gallagher, charged
with the cruel murder of her husband,
the night of June Goth. The jury took
but two ballots, and decided that she
was innocent, the first vote settling
the question of murder in the first
degree, and the second disposing of
the charge of murder in the second
degree. The effect of the acquittal
is to assure practically the
conviction of the chief ac-
cuser, and Holada seems doomed. His
trial is set for November, and the gen
eral opinion in Iowa City is that he
will make a bona fide confession to
take the place of his lying statement
of last summer, and will then throw
himself upon the courts leniency
without formal trial.

that at recent election of the Hes
perian Debating society-the oldest
and proudest organization in the
state university-Lester II. Creutz, of
this city, was elected secretary and
also closer" of the annual debate.
Either place is an honor. The Hes
perian Debating society was founded
in 1856 and on its membership roll
may be found dozens of names of
men who have since become senator's.
congressman and men of national and
international repute. To become
member of the society one must hav"
the genuine stuff. The place of clos
err is elective. the closer in debate
being the one who makes the closing
argument, reviewing the facts
brought out and refuting the oppOn-
ent's statements. Mr.. Creutz is now I
sophomore at the university and was
elected to the society last year.

In Coal it's quailty that makes
heat, it's quality that retains it, it
is quality that makes possible
consumption of 90 per cent of
the combustible part of it, leav-
ing a light, clean ash; lastly, it's
quality that lessons your fuel
bills-you're not paying for dirt,
refuse or unburnables. The coal
