HAS cohsUMPTloN CURE.
Italian Professor Uses q Secret Prep
aration Of iodine in an 1njec-
+. 3s,5 tion n Remedy.

Milan.-Professor Levi has given out.
an explanation Of his new cure for
consumption which has been success
fully used on human patients.
& Hitherto the disinfecting power OF
iodine has never been successfully
utilized in curing infectious internal
diseases in human beings for the
reason that when iodine comes In con-
tact with human blood it Immediately
combines with the alkaline elements
to form alkaline indures, the disinfect-,
ing properties Of which are small.
Professor Levi has recently sue
ceeded in preparing iodine In such 9
manner as to deprive It Of this prop
erty and to cause It, in circulation un-
mixed through the tissues Of the hui
man frame, to come In contact with
the tubercular microbes and bring to
bear all it's curative powers against
them. = 49, ], ~ ~: es5$I y9a95-ss ,4ss 44s
The professor states that after OBJ
tanning satisfactory results with anil
mails suffering from tuberculosis ne
applied his method to human patients
with great success, especially In the
cicatrization of spreading LESSONS and
the formation Of new and healthy tis-
sues. These results were proved by
the examination Of many patients and
by autopsies made by a commission OF
doctors on animals experimented upon.
The professor has already received
several offers from foreign countries
for his secret remedy, which he Will
probably accept in order to make his
discovery more widely known. S5s

Gardening as a "Cure."

Few Of us know that far better cure
for all our health troubles than any OF
the patent medicines which are 80 con-
s!antly recommended lies at our doors
In more senses than one-i. e., the gar
den cure. This Idea is at last breaking
through the crust of centuries and
emerging to the light; SO that garden
ci.ies, lady gardeners, horticulture and
agriculture and various other signs OF
coming sanity, amateur gardening be-
ing one OF the most conspicuous, are all
on the increase. All we have to do is
to open our doors and live in our gar

Sir Hallewell Rogers, a practical

Of the Warwickshire County Lawn Ten
mis- association, said it was great mis-
take for young men who had just left
school to begin to play golf. They
should first take up a game involving
greater and more invigorating exercise
than golf could provide. Golf was more
a game for old and middle-aged men
than for young men, who should first
try their hand at tennis.-London Daily

held a meeting in the Office Of John
Mitchell Friday evening. The COM
mittee acting last year was re-eleot-
ed. lit was decided to erect tobog-
gan slide this year and assess all the
old members fifty cents to pay the
cost Of erection The fee for new
members was fixed at $3.50 The
.construction of the slide will begin
.as soon as possible and be in readl-
ness for use when the water becomes
warm enough for bathing. .
With this addition to the bathing
facilities, Worthlngton will be an an
ideal place for picnics, either for
those who reside in the county and
can form parties and drive here or
those who came from distance on
the trains. While the bath house
/. will now accommodate u large num-
Der Of people, an addition will pro-
badly be made this summer. With
the high dive towers Of different
. height. spring board on q raft and
another large raft, and the tobog-
gan slide, the lake is we'll equipped
with utilities for water sport. s

is never very rough SO it is beau
tiful place for boating. There will
he several sail and row boats and
possibly another gasoline launch or
two added TO the, present number,

Y With all If these features what
better place can any one want TOR
holding picnic or enjoying an out
ing. There are tine place about the
lake sfor camping and parties would
! have . most enjoyable time BY com
ing here for q few weeks camping.
Our. citizens and council can add
much to making the Lake more at
tractive and thus attract parties to
enjoy picnicing or camping on the
lake shore, by little exertion. The
underbrush around the suoth shore
should be cut out, seats placed in
the park and a few along lake street
under the large trees, the park fenc-
ed to keep stock off the grass and a
water pipe laid into the park to en-
able people to get water, and the
park lighted by electric light in the
evening. If some Of our citizens
will take hold Of this work it can be
carried thru to perfection with a
very little labor or expense, and our
town secure the attention of people
looking for summer recreation and
this will also attract the interest of
those looking for business location
and thus do inestimable benefit.

case in which jury No. 2 ls reported
to have stood seven for conviction
and five for acquittal. Apparently
most of the jurors voted on suspi-
cion. 1t is not difficult to work up
a case against Dr.. Koch by that
route. He might have gone to DR..
Gebhardt's office that evening to
thrash out some professional dis
pute. In the heat Of the argument
quarrel might have arisen, result
ing in the killing. The eye witness
might have had some reason for per
juring himself to save Koch. The
defendants family might have cook
ed up the alibi. All this might have
happened, but there was nothing in
the evidence to show it actually did
happen. Even if the truth were
some " here along that line the
crime would have been murder in
the second degree or manslaughter
rather than premeditated murder.
Practically the second disagree
ment should amount to an acqulttal.
It is impossible that any jury
would convict man on the evil
dence twice submitted. 1t is cur
ious that twelve Mankato. jurors
could not get together on the pro-
position that the evidence left a rea-
lsonable doubt of the defendants
guilt. Sioux City Journal. 81
