Is Now a State Bank.

The name and title of the Winnie
shiek County Bank has been changed
to the Winneshiek County State Bank,
according to the articles of incorpora-
tion filed with Recorder Lawrence on
Monday afternoon. The new bank is
incorporated for 100000, and it's
officers are the same as those of the
old one, with an additional board Of
directors, consisting of @. ]. Weiser,
Abbie B. Weiser, E. w. D. Holway,
Amy Weiser Carlisle and Anna Weiser
Jones. This places the bank under
state control, and the step is made in
order to more perfectly secure the de-
positors, if possible. This staunch
banking institution, one of the strong
est in Iowa, is doing all>in its power
to advance the interests of its patrons.

KILLED AT NORTH McGREGOR.
Michael MaIanaphy, Until Few Years
Ago Resident of This County,
MangIed by the Cars.

The news reached DEBORAH Monday
morning of the death under the cars
at North McGregor, on Sunday even
ing, of Michael Malanaphy, of Cresco
1t seems that he was going to Chicago
with car load of cattle, and when
the train stopped at North McGregor
he went to a lunch counter to get
something to eat. Before he finished
the train started, and he boarded it on
the move near the front of the train,
starting to work his way back over the
cars to the caboose. In some manner
he fell between the cars and was bad
ly mangled under the wheels. He
lived but short time after the acct
dent. we understand.
Mr.. Malanaphy was born and raised
in this county, living about five miles
northwest of the city. About nine
years ago.he went to Cresco where he
has been engaged in buying stock. He
was we'll known in this county, and
was man highly respected, indus
trious and of cheerful disposition.
.His..sad death will be deeply mourned
by bis many friends in Winnesheik as
well as Howard county.

A COB RATION.

And now probably the bottom has
been reached in the breakfast food
craze, for one Of the new kinds is said
to be made from prepared corncobs. In
the language Of the immortal Mr..
SQueers. Here's richness for YOU" It
is evident that those who assumed that
the limits Of possible usefulness Of the
corn plant had been reached are
doomed to disappointment for from
the much despised cob, heretofore ded-
icated to the making Of pipes, is to be
evolved a great braip feeder. nerve reg
ulator, dyspepsia buster and muscle
builder. From the ignominious sphere
of serving as fuel to prepare the matu-
final mead, the cob Is to rise from the
fire pot to the cereal boiler and scatter
its appetizing odrs all through the
house Jointly with the family coffee
pot Not until the American people get
down to all the possibilities Of a ba-
mana and cob diet will they obtain the
highest type OF mental and moral and
physical development. IL.

TWIN BLESSINGS.

We are in receipt of numerous letters
from different parts of the country
where the rural mail route and the
country telephone line have reached the
farm home. and the fact is nearly al
ways referred to as having worked out
almost a revolution in country living.
These agencies have done more to make
life ON the farm endurable and people
contented with country environment
than anything else could have done.
These improvements have especially
helped the life of the women I'm the
farm home, have done away with that
sense of isolation which under old con-
ditions was at times almost unendura-
bic. When a woman arrives at that
state of mind when It seems as though
she must say something to somebody,
she can now take down the pbope and
have a pleasant chat with some neigh
Dor. to the great enjoyment and benefit
Of both.

HOGS FoR THE NORTH CouNrR :.


In the north country, and by this we
mean that portion of the cou' try
where corn cannot for climatic rea ons
be made staple crop, there is no good
reason why the growing of pork can
not be made very profitable pa Of
the farm production. The growt.. Of
the Poland China hog in the state Of
Iowa has done more to make the state
nch than any other one thing. The
north country LIS naturally a better
clover country than Iowa; the farmers
can raise peas therein Iowa they
can't; they can raise better and bigger
crops Of barley, rye and wheat, and
twice as many potatoes to the acre.
Any of these foods Is better than
corn to build up the frame, the bone
and muscle of the pig than is corn,
while ration Of cooked potatoes and
barley and pea meal will put fat on a
hog equal to any corn that ever grew.
Then it Is unlikely that hogs so fed and
raised in this north country would ever
be afflicted with the diseases which
sweep them Off periodically by the mil
lion in the corn states. One year with
another wheat will bring more than q
dollar a bushel converted into pork.
while the profits connected with max
ing pork on clover. rye, barley and po-
tatoes are too evident to need elaborat-
ing. You north country fellows. try
the hog and get rid of your farm mort
gage, Just as the farmers have In Iowa.

The Columbia Theatre Co. which
opened a weeks engagement at
Steyer's opera house Monday evening,
are giving very satisfactory perform
ances. The company carries band

troupe are good actors. No doubt
they will play to good houses the rest

by steadfastness. It is a principle fun- damentai to life in every phase. every undertaking.
 Pessimisrn asks. Why don't we have Pentecosts nowadaysf' We do. A well Known bishop affirms that there are three thousand accessions to our denomination from the Sunday School every Sunday the year around. Another authority states that there are additions tQ the Church universal at the rate of fiine thousand Der day. and that this ratio has been maintained for the last ten years. To some. it Is no Pentecost without the frs and noise.
 The Apostles were the first coinmun- fists. But the communism they taught was voluntary, temporary, and partial. Even this species of communism did nof maintain outside of Jerusalem. It was a mere incident in the evolution of the Church. However, the Church, to be gen. timely apostolic, must be sincerely altru- istic. While 1t wages no war on capital or property it must, If loyal to its Founder, withstand oppression, and have heart and hand for all.

Some time ago my daughter caught a severe cold. She complained of pains in her chest and had bad cough. I gave her Chamberlain's Cough Remedy &C., cording to directions and in two days she was well and able to go to school. I have used this remedy in my family for the past seven years and have never known it to fail," says James Prendergast, mer- chant, Annato Bay. Jamaica, West India Islands. The pains in the chest indicated an approaching attack of pneumonia, which in this instance was undoubtedly warded off by Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy. It counteracts any tendency of a cold toward pneumonia. For sale by E. c. Fowler, Druggist. -adv.
