The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1905-05-12

THE failure of the effort to secure a
repeal Of the corrupt practices act at the
present session of the legislature, has
been followed by an effort to secure even
more drastic legislation on the subject.
To this end the committee on privileges
and election has drafted bill which
looks to the enforcement of the present
law. 1t provides among other things,
that no person elected to an Office can
qualify until he has stated the full
amount of his expenditures. In addition
to this it provides that the district at
torney in each county shall be provided
with list of candidates who have failed
to comply with this law, and that he
shall commence action against them.
No CLASS of PR fessional men have a
code of ethics that is so inconsistent
with the spirit of the times as the ply
sicians. The State Medical society hold
that it is unprofessional for a physician
to advertise and have gone to the legis-
lature asking for laws to compel obed
fence to the rule. The laws on the stat
ute books today protect the public fully
against quacks and physicians guilty of
malpractice, but what they really seek
to accomplish in this new bill is to put
every member of the profession under
the strict ethical rules of the profession
on penalty of having their license taken
away from them. One of the objects of
the bill is to knock men, eminent in the
profession, who have used the public
print in a legitimate way to enlarge
their practice, and who have thus been
guilty Of s'unprofessionaP conduct.
There is too much class legislation al
ready

Railroad Outlook.

The outlook for railroad from Point
Pleasant to Fordsville or Cloverport is
still very good but there is yet work for
every one, who is in favor of the road, to
do, says the Hartford Repu lican. A
good portion of the right of way has
been procured but much is yet to be OBJ
tanned.
The proposition submitted by the
company to Ohio county people is un-
alterable. They propose to build the
road, standard gauge steam railroad,
if we people in Ohio county will furnish
the road bed and donate $4,000. There
is no alteration in the proposition.I If we
fail on our part the opportunity of a
lifetime to hav, railroad through the
interior of Ohio county will be lost. In
other words it is up to Ohio county peo-
pie. If we want railroad bad enough
to put forth the proper efforts we can
get it, otherwise it is lost. Come,
what shall we do? If built our county
will blossom like rose.

Indigest Cured.

There is no case of Indigestion, Dyspep-
sis or Stomacn Trouble that will not
yield to the digestive and strengthen.
ing influence Of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure.
This remedy takes the strain off the
stomach by digesting what you eat and
allowing 1t to rest until it grows strong
again. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure affords
quick and permanent relief from
Indigestion and all stomach troubles,
builds up the system and so puiifies
that disease can not attack and gain
foothold as when in a weakened
condition. The constantly increasing
use of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure by ply
sicians of hospital and general practice
of itself tells how TINS most wonderful
modern discovery has proven to be the
greatest digestant for the sllevistion
of suffering humanity. It's many cures
of both children and adults grows larg-

First And Last PaStOrate.

Rev. J. F. Winchell, of Tobinsport,
under date of June 20, writes to the
Western Recorder as follows:
"Last Sunday at Hite's Run church
a young man of much promise was re-
ceived for baptism, and in the evening
was baptized, also his mother, sister
and uncle. The cause at this old
church Is "looking up" again. Some
much needed repairs have Gently been
done, adding greatly to the comfort and
convenience OF the people. We thank
God and take courage. This church is
very dear to her pastor, as his first and
last pastorate. was first called there
as supply in 1879, preached for FIVE
years, and have had two short pastor
ates since; the present one is in the
second year. 1t will close With the
calender year. There is good prospect
then for the church to move up to half
time service. May the Lord lead is the

raising tobacco for little pay and that
they are determined to quit producing

Exercise and Greeiian Beauty.

Many thousands of women are nova
days paying attention to physical culture
and the proper exercise OF their body
muscles, where, thirty years ago or fifty
years ago there was no thought expended
on this science, which Is quite necessary
to physical beauty. The reason the
Greeks, both men and women, excelled In
beautiful and symmetrical forms was be-
cause Of the attention they paid TO the
proper exercise. Then, too, they were
untrammeled by cOrsets, shoes and the
Inconvenience Of clothing. To the minds
of some women the idea of physical ex-
ercise conveys only the idea Of hard fac
tiguing work. Mild exercise continued
day after day Is best for the body and
spirits and health. Without proper ex-
ercise there can be no health, and with
out health there can be no real beauty.
There Il no stronger proof OF the sound
remedial value OF Or. Perce's Favorite
Prescription than that Il restores the
wasted form to Ito wonted roundness.

Capt. c. &. Bassett died in the
soldiers home at Leavenworth, Kan.
last week. So simple an announce
ment will scarcely cause comment in
Bates county now. Only the old
settlers here % or 30 years ago re-
member Capt. Bassett as the leading
lawyer at the Butler bar, a man of
commanding figure, strong intellect,
a magnetic personality, he welded
much influence as a political leader.
He was easily the commanding figure
OF the county. He had an amiable,
cultured wife, a beautiful little
daughter, a commodious home and
his domestic life should have been all
that could have been desired. He
had one besetting sin. He was ad.
dicted to strong drink and when in
his cups it had complete mastery
over him. His home became a hell
Tor his family, bis business asso-
ciates and friends feared and avoided
him. He moved to Kansas City
where for awhila he prospered and
made money, but he could not OF
would not resist the drink habit
His wife finally left him and secured
a divorce. He lost bis property and
became in time a mental and physlc-
wreck. The Basset who once had
such a bright future before him, end
ed his days in public charity, a DESC
lated, ruined, pitiable old man.
