The readers OF this paper will be pleas
ed to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science has been
able to cure in all its stages and that is
Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the
only positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires consti-
tutioral treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure
is taken internally. acting directly upon
the blood and mucous surfaces of the sys-
tenn, thereby destroying the foundation
of the diseases, and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing its work.

LAND AGENTS ORGANIZE.
Illinois Central Land Agents Would
Combine to Weed Out Curbstone
Broker,

|
] Special 10 Times Republican,
| Waterloo, June 26-The real estate
agents of the Illinois Central railway
held meeting at the Logan house in
TINS city Thursday for the purpose of
elfecting permanent organization in
Iowa such as now exists in Illinois.
| Secretary Thompson, speaking of the
matter to Courier representative,
said:
We expect an attendance OF about
fifty of the best real estate men along
the line of the Illinois Central in Iowa.
Many more have signified their inten-
ton of coming and joining the organ
ization but business deals will probably
prevent many from coming.
The purpose of the organization is
to bring the better class of real estate
men together into Il body for the bet
terment of their relations and the bus
mess in general. We propose to weed
out the Curl stone broker, and real es-
tate dealer, and the membership of this
body will be composed of the good, sub
.stantial, honest and upright realty men.
Such an organization has been in
effect in Illinois for some time and the
benefits arising have been many. Our
organization will probably be patterned
after the Ilincis association and will
have a regular constitution and by
laws for the government of members"
The meeting was called to order at
the Logan house shortly before ii
o'clock.
The organization was perfected at
the meeting in the afternoon, the pres
ident and secretary of the temporary
