"Uncross your legs said
doctor.
"Oh, mol" said his son. whats
the use of being so polite all the
time?"
"My, BY" the father answered,
sit is not on account of mere rule
of etiquette that l tell you to un-
cross your legs; but it is because
leg-crossing is an injurious thing,
a thing as baleful to the health as
kissing or as microbes.
"When you cross your legs you
fit the keecap of the upper limb into
the caverty under the knee of the
lower one. In the cavity that you
thus compress there are the two
important exterior and interior
popliteal nerves, and a number of
glands and blood vessels. Com
preston does not act well on these
organs. 1t benumbs them and
weakens and emaciates them. You
feel the injury in numbness OF the
whole leg-the leg goes to sleep.
keep on with the habit, and
your legs weaken. They become
thin. They lose their shapeliness.
1t is only such men and women and
children as never cross their legs
who have strong and supple and
beautiful limbs.

that if he got her it would be over

GEORGE GABLE SHOT
Mahaska County Farmer Victim
of Son-in-law's Rage.

George Gable, farmer residing in
Richland township, about twelve
miles northwest of Oskaloosa, was
shot and very seriously wounded on
Monday morning about eleven o.
clock by Marion Jones, young man
about twenty-three years of age. The
wounds were inflicted with shotgun.
One hand was wounded, another shot
took effect in the legs and the third
struck the face, neck and breast in
fiicting terrible wounds that will
prove very serious if not fatal.
The shooting occurred at the Gable
homo. 1t was the result of an alter
cation concerning the possession of
the fifteen year old daughter of Gable
who had married young Jones in
July. Following the shooting the
girl and Jones went to the home of
Jones father, Alonzo Jones, about a
mile distant from the scene of the
trouble and here the young man was
arrested in the afternoon by Sheriff
Cricket and brought to this city
where he is now confined in jail.
The story picked up from witnesses
about the Gable home is to the effect
that the parents we're opposed to the
marriage of the daughter from the
first on account of her extreme youth.
They state that they did not give their
permission, but forbade the match in
most emphatic terms. Jones persuad-
ed the girl to come to the city. He
found some one to make affidavit as
to the manageable age of the girl
before the county clerk. The license
was procured and the marriage was
contaminated. 1t is said that the
girl afterwards repented of her act
desired to go home to her parents,
and had told her husband that she
would not live with him any longer.
The parents came for her and she
went back to her home. The young
husband had sought her out and had
talked to her aud she says that he
had threatened to shoot her if she
refused to live with him. Monday
morning when the shooting occurred
at the Cable home Jones had been at
the house with the girl and she had
been crying. They came up the road
together and the girl, crying, broke
away from the boy and ran toward
the father, who protected her and
took her into the house. Young Jones
had shot gun and was threatening
in both language and demeanor. Mr..
Gable got revolver from the house
and came outside, ordering the boy
from the place. The boy fred the
shotgun first and fired four shots in
all. He demanded that the girl go
with him and took her away from the
house. .s,
Mr.. Gable went into the house and
Mrs. Cord and another woman of
the vicinity started for help. A
