HEALTH

I. N. Hunt, who for many
years drew the throttle on

to the old timers, who will be pleased

health, is now regaining his health and
expects to return to his post.
Mr.. Hunt tells the story himself in
the following words: II have treated
with many doctors during the past two
years; some treated me for rheuma-
tism and some called it locomotor
ataXia. I have also taken sanitarium
treatment, but did not get any better,
in fact was steadily getting worse
through it all, until commenced talk
ing treatment from the Hot Springs
Doctors They found the cause of my
trouble and treated the cause instead
of the symptoms. / am now much i'm
proved and for the first time can walk
without using 9 cane. am thoroughly
satisfied with the Hot Springs treat
ment" Mr.. Hunts home is at Mon
mouth, ILL.,
The Hot Springs Doctors in their
permanent institute in the New Tele-
phone building are busy now nearly
every hour of the day. Their liberal
offer of free services and treatment at
cost of medicines, together with the
fact that they guarantee to cure or re-
fund the money and accept only cases
that they can cure, is drawing people
from near and far. Many come 40
and even 100 or 200 miles to consult
these master specialists.

WOMEN OF HOSPITAL AssocIA-
TON HOPE 70 CHEER
THEtPATlENTs
Request Donations of Fruits and
Christmas Dainties For the Inmates
of the Hospital-"Fruit Reception"
Will Not be Held.

Rather than risk causing the pa
tients at the hospital any discomfort,
the members of the Ottumwa hospital
association have decided not to hold
the fruit reception" which was being
arranged for this week. The associa-
ton, however, announces that dona-
lions of fruits and other delicacies will
be thankfully received at the hospital
at any time, and especially are such
donations desirable just now Christ
mas time, when happiness and gaiety
are to be found almost everywhere,
there is no one who feels the lack of
Christmas cheer more than the inmate
of a hospital. Realizing this, the wo-
men of the local hospital association
are preparing to make this Christmas
really a happy one for the patients at
the institution and they ask the aid
of the people of Ottumwa and vicinity
in their worthy work
Hospital is Appreciated.
1t is very gratifying to the Ottumwa
women who have given their time and
energies for years to the work of the
hospital, to know that their efforts are
appreciated by the people Of the COM
munity. Just now the association is
In need of money and the gifts that
have been made by private citizens
have been most opportune. One bust
ness man in particular won the thanks
of the association when he enclosed,
with money donation, note ex-
pressing his appreciation of their I'M
selfish work for the benefit of the pub
lie.
The Christmas dinner at the hos
pital, for all the patients who are far
enough on the way to recovery to par
take of it, can be made especially
palatable this year If the people of Of
tumwa respond to the request of the
association for donations. Fruits are
especially useful and the members OF
the organization hope that the dona-
tons will be fully as large as they
would have been had the fruit re-
ception" been held as previously
planned.

MORE CONVICTIONS
INTERESTING CRIMINAL STATS.
TICS COMPILED BY THE SEC.
RETARY OF STATE
The 1851 Persons Convicted in iowa
During Past Year Got 1,341.5 Years
in the Penitentiary and so.3 Years
in JaiI-Wapelo County Report.

There were sixty more people con-
victed Of crimes in Iowa during 1905
than in 1904, according to the GRIM
inal court report for the past year
which has just been compiled by the
secretary of state.
The 1861 who were convicted dur
the past year got S03 years in jail and
1,341.5 years in the penitentiaryJ and
were assessed S125,546 in fines, while
the 1901 who were convicted in 1904,
got only SIG years in Jail, 1928 years
in prison and were fined $114,531.
So that there is consolation in the
report that those who believe that the
laws are not enforced with sufficient
rigidity and for those who rather in
cline to the theory that the law should
be administered for reformatory pur-
poses instead of for punishment.
Criminal Court Business.
The following is table compiled
from the reports of the secretary of
state showing the business of the
criminal courts in the years 1904 and
1905 in the state of Iowa:
