The high-water mark in pensions
has been reached Reports just COM
pleted for the year ending September
80, give the number of veterans and
their dependents on the rolls as l,000,-
ISL, an increase of 6,O79 over last year.
The increase is due in some respects to
the now famous Order No. rs. The
amount paid out last year was $l44,-
9s2, 937 "A. There will be an increase
of several hundred thou sand dollars
this year, but the officers of the pen
sion bureau now say that hereafter
the amount will be less. The veterans
are dying at the rate OF 100 day, and
about all who fought in the war who
desire it have been placed on the rolls.
While it has increased the amount
paid out to the veterans, Order No.
rs has reduced expenses in other ways.
No more money is paid out for medical
examinations.

WILLIAM RAILS DEAD.
One of Marshaltown's Oldest Settlers
Passes Away.

William Rails, one Of the very first
settlers on the land now within the
corporate limits of this city, who fol
more than half century has made his
home here, died Tuesday evening at S
o'clock at the home OF his son, j. A.
Rails, 513 North First street. Mr.. Rails
had been gradually failing in health
for several months, but had been SER
iously i'll for only two or three weeks.
His death was due to dropsy, and COM
plicaions brought on by extreme age.
He was 81 years and Z Tnonths old.
Williams Rails was one Of the very
few, now living, who came to this
county before the town had been laid
out. He accepted from the government
the land upon which Is now built that
section of the city lying north Of Main
street and west Of Center. His log cab
in, the first built in that part OF
town, was on North Second street,
what was afterwards the Colonel
Shurtz residence. In his cabin the
first court was held. and under the old
elms, still standing, the jury retired for
deliberation on the case. That portion
of the city now known as Riverside
cemetery was part of the land decided
by the government to Mr.. Rails, who
afterwards sold the entire parcel TO
Dr. Childs for $500, and still later 1t
passed to the Webster estate. He was
one of the very few who lived to see
the prairie5 upon which he planted his
first crop become a villttge, grow into
a town, ard spread to it's present pro-
portions OF city. After disposing Of
his farm within the city limits, he
purchased the ITS acres in Linn town
ship, now Just outside of the eastern
limits Of the city. and there, until re-
cent years, he has Hvel. Since then
he has made his home with his son in
town. MIR. Rails was one or the sturdy
stock that made the uplouilding of the
west possible, by enduring and over
coming the hardships OF pioneer days
He was man respected and held in
esteem by those who knew him thru
his long residence.
William Rails was born in Tennes-
see in 1922, and while still child, re-
moved with his parents to Kentucky.
His parents later moved to Illinois and
in 1916 the young man came to Iowa
and settled in Lee county. There and
in jefferson and Wappello counties he
lived until in 1850, when he came to
Marshall county. Mr.. Rails was mar
ried twice. both of his wives being
dead The first was Miss Susan Dim
nell, whom he married in Indiana. He
afterwards married Miss A. II. Fulton
of Vermont. Four sons. r.. r. Rails, of
Alliance, Neb.; G. NJ. Rails, of Los
Angeles and w. G. and ]. A. Rails, of
this city, survive the father. The fun
eral will be held at the home of the
son Thursday morning at 1880 O'clock.

4 NEW PRINCIPLE IN MEDICAL
!, SCIENCE.

/, For years it has been the practice of med
v)cal men to treat patients suffering from piles
By local, external applications. These treat
eents give but temporary relief, but have
Sever affected q positive cure.
I After months of research and study, ac-
eompanied by actual experience with various
patients, DR.. C. A. Perrin arrived at posi-
tive conclusion as to the exact action OF the
various parts of the bowel system, under
different conditions, and when subjected to
sa1ious prescriptions.
/ He finally prepared that wonderful inter
eal remedy known as DR.. PERKINS, PILE
SpEcIFrc, which is put up in bottles, retail
hr at all reliable drug stores for $1.OO each.
This internal remedy has been on the mar
ket for the past ten years, and in all of that
lime there has been but three cases where
positive cure has not been effected.
1 Dr.. Perrin's Pile Specific is sold under a
positive guarantee by the druggist making
he sale, to refund the full purchase price,
providing the remedy fails to cure. This is
he absolute proof of its merit. Any man
prwoman who suffers from blind, bleeding,
ltching or internal piles can try this internal
semedy with the absolute certainty that It
Nill cost nothing unless it cures. Here Is
What one sufferer says of this wonderful
Demedy:
e 81. c. A. Perrin Helena, Mont.-I wish to thank
1oa for the cure your wonderful medicine has done Tor
be, Ihad the piles some FIVE years, and under the
Advice Of doctor had them removed by the knife and
felt free for awhile but they returned and at once got
bottle q your PERKINS, Pile Specific and one bottle
rs entirely curedne and am as good as Fever was
Yours truly,
JACK SULLIVAN,
October IS, 1909. Chicago.
Better get bottle of your druggist today
md get relief from present and future
suffering
