Simplicity seems to be the fashionable ideal in
bedroom furnishing at the present moment. The
four-poster Of antiquity, with It's close gern-cor-
railing curtains and its feather bed, has gone. So
has the toilet table, with drapings of white mus
lin over pink blue. The carpet has given place
to polished floor, with only rugs strips of car
pet. which easily be taken up and beaten A
well known doctor gives 1t his opinion that
walls should neither be papered kalsomined
but covered with some hard composition, which
could be easily brushed or washed. All heavy and
large furniture is now raised three or four inches
from the floor, to allow of Eassing damp cloth

Since the average family must eat what is set
before it go without, it behooves the housewife
not to serve at the same meal articles which war
upon each other. For instance, cherries and milk
and lobster and milk deadly foes. Do not give
the family a chance to eat them together. Do
not serve cheese and raw onions at the same meal

SPARE NOT THY HAND

And If in thy life on earth.
In the chamber or by the hearth,
Mid the crowded citys tide
Or high on the lone hillside,
Thou canst thought of peace,
Or an aching thought to cease.
Or CLEAN of Joy to burst
On a soul in sadness hurst
Spare not thy hand my child:
Though the GIaddened should never know
The well spring amid the wild.
Whence the waters of blessing flow.

Brave Struggle Against Inevitable
Death Results in Victory for the

Frank Edward Turner, the only son
of Hon. George A. Turner, if sos West
Main street died at 3:15 this morning,
after an illness that has dated since
February. Mr.. Turner made one Of the
greatest struggles conceivable for life
confident that there was hope even af-
ter his physicians and friends realized
that nothing within the power Of hui
man hands could aid him. The end
came peacefully, with the patient per-
fectly conscious of his surroundings.
and having the knowledge that the long
fight was over, and that eternal rest
and peace were to be the reward.
Mr. Turner was taken Ill on Febru-
airy 81, While a student at Iowa State
College, Ames, with an attack of pneu-
monia. A hereditary heart trouble be-
came greatly aggravated as result,
and severe valvuiar trouble became
apparent from the start. After being
in the college hospital for nearly two
weeks lowering, as it ware, between
life and death. he finally improved
sufficiently SO that he was brought to
his home in this city. Slight improve
ment in his general condition was man
ifest from time to time. and for few
weeks prior to a month or two asp,
he was able to drive about and attain
the. benefits to be derived from pure air
ana sunshine. While greatly encour-
aged himself, 1t was realized that the
disease was only temporarily less
treacherous. and that thu inevitable
would finally result. The heart trouble
induced q general dropsical tendency.

With his hand on live wire, with q

1t was to be close 10 death this morn
ing. Another close call. occurring also
in the south part Of the city, came to
Jack Welch. former former Great
Western engineer, who went To sleep on
the railroad track and was picked up
with stn engine only ten feet from him.
Bartiett's accident occurred south of
the Chicago Great Western tracks, be-
tween First and Second avenues, at
about 8 o'clock this morning. He was
at work making some repairs to wires,
necessitated by the damage done in the
severe windstorm Of Tuesday evening.
He was in the act of pulling down
dead wire over the alternating wire,
when 1t came in contact with one from
an electric light circuit, carrying LOO
volts. The simple fact that Bartlett's
hands; were protected by heavy gloves,
and that the weight of his body, when
he fed. in addition to that Of the wire,
pulled the latter from over tile electric
wire. is all that saved his life, He was
Knocked down by the Shock. and
bruised somewhat. but not seriously.

Severe Blow of Tuesday Even

The severe windstorm, that accom-
panied the rain that began falling on
Tuesday evening after torrid day. re-
suited In considerable damage of a
general nature turnout the city and
county In the country fields of grow
ing corn were more or less affected,
tops Of hay stacks Were blown down,
trees feiled to the ground and orchards
damaged In the city several trees
were broken and telephone and tele-
graph service was interfered with. A
great many crosses both IN the city and
on rural telephone lines. resulted, and
In number Of places wires were found
the falling limbs of trees.
The high wind, from the west, came
up at about 5 O'Clock, almost with the
first few drops of rain. The heavy
clouds in the west betokened heavy
rain. but the worst part of the storm
moved off to the north. Early reports
to the city. from the train crew on the
Iowa Central's No. 2, from the north,
were to the effect that the rain had
been heavy all along the line. and that
the train had been in the path OF the
storm all afternoon. The heaviest pre-
cipitation was in the vicinity of Ackley.
The storm generally was accompanied
by heavy wind.
AT Albion, for time, it was feared
that the Central depot would be blown
from its foundation. The building
swayed to and fro, but was not dam
aged. Two or three boards from the
platform We're picked up and blown
several feet away.
Farmers do not consider that the
wind did much damage to corn, even
tho many fields were flattened to a
greater or lesser extent. The small
grain is so nearly out Of the way that
it was not affected. and the hay stacks
that were blown down will have to be
retopped. Orchards suffered more or
less in all parts of the county.
The local temperature reached Tues
day within one degree of the hottest
day of the summer, IS. The range was
wide. for after the evening storm the
became much cooler and
the minimum reached during the night
was 65. The precipitation for the TWEEN
ty-four hours ending at this morn
ing was 81 of an inch.

the patient has suffered so severely that
he really sought death as relief.
Mr.. Turner was born in this county,
on the old Turner homestead. three and
one-half miles north of Clemens, in
Liberty township, Aug. 6, 1883 He
came with his parents to this city nine
years ago, and has grown 10 young
manhood here. His education was re-
ceived in the city schools. and in his
junior high school year he left for
Ames. where he intended pursuing an
agricultural course, and where he was
progressing nicely when the illness
came that has finally terminated in
his death. His mother died in this city
five years ago next October, and the
only remaining members of the family
are heartbroken father and sister.
The latter is Mrs. Frank C. Goodman,
of Minneapolis. who has been in the
city several weeks at her brothers bed
side.
The death Of Frank Turner is partic-
ularly sad in many ways. He was the
only son of father who idoliZed him,
and who was in q position to give him
the best of advantages. One could
Gus future than was in store for the
son. and 1t seems hard that it was his
lot to be taken at time when he could
best enjoy his life Mr.. Turner was
one of the prominent workers among
the young people and in the Sunday
school of the Christian church, having
acted as secretary of the Sunday school
for a number of years. He was also
greatly interested in the Y. NJ. c. A.
work, and took an active part In the
junior department of the association.

the Western Grocer Company-Re.
linquishes Possession Aug. IS.
Advices from Kansas City tell of
a business deal which has been con-
sumated recently in that city, where
by the Western Grocer Company. with
headquarters in this city, has disposed
of its branch house there. The Kan
sas City house is known as the West
ern Grocer Company, and was purchas-
I'd a little more than two years ago.
Since 1t was acquired by the Western
Grocer Company it has been managed
by c. M. Carr, formerly of this city.
When Manager II. l.. Sloan, of the
Let's. Fletcher Company, was
seen this afternoon he was an
able to give any of the details of the
transaction. altho he stated that Presi-
dent F. c. Let's had had under con-
sideration proposition to sell. 1t Is
thought the property has been sold TO
the Beckham- Midnight Company, from
which it was purchased by the combi-
nation. No reason is known here why
the sale should have been made, altho
it is known that the company has not
been as successful financially as had
been anticipated.
1t Is not known whether Mr.. Carr
will remain with the new firm or not,
but as he has a contract with the West
ern Grocery Company, 1t is presumed
that he will be taken care of in some
capacity until it expires, If he does not
pass to the services of the new pur-
