Are we to pass, In consequence of
the amazing success of President
Rooseyelt-who to-day stands admitted
the most powerful ruler on earth-into
an entirely new conception OF our mis-
sion among the nations? asks the New
York Evening Post. We think not.
The great triumph has come precisely
because of our historic position, which
mas now been wonderfully vindicated.
Exactly because we have no ZEN
tangling alliances or thought or posi-
Ibility Of them; exactly because we
have no land-hunger in the Orient; ex-
lactly because we stand apart from
European complications and wars until
the time comes to propose and consume
mate a peace; exactly because our ideal
remains that Of free industrial re-
public, not an empire in arms, the great
Intervention has come to 50 brilliant
b close.

Mrs. A. P. Cannon of 1S3 State street

and also a two-story verandl upon the

2 bowling alley, which some OF the oid-
or citizens will recall. The d3guerreo-

and is an interesting relic of Tn" early
stages OF photography. Mrs. cannon
also showed an invitation to the in

Aurusta House on the evening of
March 4. 1871, to celebrate the inauSu-

THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.
Also Few Facts on the Same Subject.

We hear much nowadays about
health foods and hygienic living, about
vegetarianism ana many other fads
along the same line.
Restaurants may be found in the
large cities where no meat, pastry or
coffee is served and the food crank is
in his glory, and arguments and theo-
ries galore advanced to prove that
meat was never intended for human
stomachS, and almost make us believe
that our sturdy ancestors who lived
four score years in robust health on
roast beef. pork and mutton must have
been grossly ignorant of the laws Of
health.
our forefathers had other things to
do than formulate theories about the
food they ate. a warm welcome WAS
extended to any kind from bacon to
acorI,S.
A healthy appetite and common
sense are excellent guides to follow in
matters Of diet. and a mixed diet of
grains, fruits and meats is undoubtedly
the best.
AS compared with grains and vege-
tables, meat furnishes the most nutri-
ment in a highly concentrated form
ana is digeSted and aSsimilated more
quickly than vegetables ana grains.
DR.. julius Remmson on this subject
says. "Net vnus persons. people run
down in health and of low vitality
| should eat meat and plenty Of it. If
| the digestion is too feeble at first it
may be easily corrected by the regular
use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after
| each meal. Two Of these excellent
| tablets taken after dinner will digest
several thousand grains of meat. eggs
or other animal food in three hours
and no matter how weak the stomach
| may be, no trouble will be experienced
| if regular practice is made OF using
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. because
| they supply the pepsin and diastase
necessary to perfect digestion, and
every form Of indigestion will be over
come by their use.
| That large class of people who come
under the head of nervous dyspeptics
should eat plenty of meat and insure
its proper digestion by the daily use OF

Pauline.

Considering the weather and the fact
that there was another attraction in
the city. the audience that greeted the
Great Pauline at the Opera House
last evening. was a good one. and those
who present witnessed some of
the beS md most pleasing demonStra-
tons Of hypnotism that have been Civ
en- on an Augusta stage. The work
shown was largely of a comical ma
ture. and kept the audience in a tu-
multi of laughter throughout the even
ing. The demonstrations We're all
very clever. and many of them of a
nature that was original to the gentle
man who conducted the entertainment.
He is certainly prince among hyp-
notists, and all should avail themselves
of the opportunity of seeing him. He
will continue his demonstrations dur
ing the week.

stated that the new owners will al
some time occupy it for banking rooms
when the street floor shall have beer
fitted up for that purpose.
Of course it is yet early to state what
the plans of the company are in regard
to fitting up the building, but the SER
vices of an architect will soon be en-
gagged to draft the plans. and when the
work of remodeling has been completed
it is the intention of the company to
have one of the finest banking rooms
in the State.
The reason for the change of quarters
on the part of the Augusta Trust Co. is
that because of large and rapidly in
creaSing business, the rooms now occu-
pied have proved inadequate.
In regard to the effect of the transfer
upon Colonel Soule, it is thought that
he will continue to occupy the building
as heretofore. except that he will va
cate the lower floor.

Secured Right of Way.

DR.. J. W. Crofford and ]. N. Brown Of
Lamont, were in Leon last Thursday
and told us they were meeting will
great success in securing right of way
through Decatur county for new rail
road which they propose building from
Des Moines to the Gulf of Mexico. The
road when built will enter this county
at a point q miles east of Weldon and
run south through the county on line
passing miles east of Leon. They had
been woking from Weldon south and
had secured the right of way through
practically all of the land this far and
went from Leon on south. They
We're greatly enthused over the very
liberal donations of right of way though
the farms on the proposed route and say
that the road is going to be built with
out any question.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1905-05-18
DR.. W. J. Laney.

Was born in Columbiana county, Ohio,
April Is, 1927. He graduated from a
medical college in WiIlowby, Ohio, and
began the practice of medicine in 1851
in Van Buren, county, Iowa. He moved
to Leon in 1858 as the pioneer physician
of the county, forming partnership
with DR.. S. c. Thompson. In 1857 he
moved to Decatur City where he prac-
ticed his profession until in 1886 he
went to Davis City, where he purchased
the corner drug store and being
licensed pharmacist, has been able to
gain fine competence. He was mar
ried to Miss Fannie Bruce at Leon, May
16, 1866. In 1857 he was elected to rep
resent Decatur county in the General
Assembly of Iowa, the first legislature
under the new constitution which con-,
vened at Des Moines. He endured all
the privations incident to frontier life,
his practice extending throughout this
and into adjoining counties and into the
edge of Missouri. He was both kind
hearted and sympathetic and possessed
those qualities which made his presence
especially acceptable in sick room.
In his death we are again reminded that
as the years go by friend after friend
departs. "Those whom we have known
in infancy, in childhood, in youth and in
maturity, one by one pass from our
sight. Yesterday they, were with us,
full of life, joy and love: today they are
gone and our homes are desolate, our
hearts are sad with sadness for which
earth has no remedy. The nearest and
dearest, the truest and the noblest, pass
from us in answer to the call Of Him
who doeth all things WE'LL
He leaves to mourn his departure a
wife and a daughter who has ever been
her fathers right hand, two brothers in
California and sister in Virginia. The
funeral was held at the M. Z. church,
Rev. Bingaman preaching the sermon to
a large audience of sympathizing
friends. Flowers had been sent until
the casket was covered by wilderness
of bloom, especially noticeable was
pillow of flowers with the word Crest
conspicuous, the business men of the
city by this offering showing in what
high esteem he was held. The funeral
was under the auspices of the M. w. A.,
of which organization he was charter
member. DR.. Laney passed away on the
morning of May 4th, being at the time
of his death 81 years and 10 days old.
1t may we'll be said Of him, "He rests
from his labors and his works do follow
him. His body was laid to rest in the
Davis City cemetery, there to await the
resurrection morn, where ''every man
shall be judged according as his works
