HERE'S WHAT'S VI AfyTED
A Citizen OF Missouri Valley SUI
plies the Information

Over half the complaints Of
mankind originate with the
XII lneys. A slight touch of
backache at first; twinges and
shooting pains in the loins fol-
low. They must be checked.
They lead to graver complica-
tions. The sufferer seeks re-
lief. Plasters are tried, and
liniments for the back, so-called
kidney cures which do not cure.
The long-looked-for result
seems unattainable. If you
suffer, do you want relief :?
Follow the plan adopted by this
Missouri Valley citizen.
James Giger, employed in the
Northwestern freight sheds,
says: "For three months pain
in my back of a dull nature just
across the loins told me there
was something radically wrong
with my kidneys. If | stopped
sharp twinges caught me just
over the part of my back where
the kidneys are located and to
say the least my condition was
not pleasant. Doan's Kidney
Pills attracted my attention
and | went to G. S. Osborne's
drug store for a box. A very
short time elapsed before the
aching ceased and my back was
soon as strong as ever. | shall

Jordan died at Ottumwa, the
9th, aged II years. He defed
the prohibltory law for years,
and lawlng broke him up. He
jocosely calico his saloon "the
road to hell" /" and dubbed his
liquors "nose paint" He did
not drink himself, but let the
suckers and smart grcenhorns
do that in a spirit of bravoda,
captivated by hisaudacity. AS
he was shrewd enough to be a
total abstainer, no one can truly
say that he is so soaked that
he will not burn, like the water
elm. He was a character, and
leaves a wife and seven child
rem to prove that he did not fs-
vor race suicide.

scores of red squirrels. all quite
tame, and should anyone at
tempt to shoot one of them, he
would be placed under the ne
cessity Of explaining the wis
dom of killing these little Great
ures. These large home prop
critics are what gives the town
its roomy appearance above re-
ferred to and extends the area
much beyond that of most
towns of its population. The
town has three railroads, the
Missouri Pacific, the Chicago &
Alton, and the Belt Line.
The electric and gas plants
are both private corporations,
but the water issupplied by the
city. Each dwelling is supplied
with a meter, and the charge is
fifty cents per month for 1000
gallons or less, and as the aver
age family will use only about
1000 gallons per month, the
rate is pretty high, for water.
In view of the fact that it only
costs Kansas City eight cents
per 1000 gallons to furnish
water, we could not understand
why we should pay so much for
it until we saw an analysis of
the water. and there were
about a half bushel of bacteria
lover 1000 seperate and dis
tinct bacteria would certainly
make a half busheD to each tea
spoonful of water, and we saw
at once that we were buying
meat in our water at "beef
trust" prices. In fact, the city
was selling us "watered stock"
But the quality and price Of
water are really all the cause of
complaint we have; true, rent
is about thirty per cent higher
than in Missouri Valley, that is
if you get near the car line, but
we have some advantages here
that the people in the Valley
do not enjoy. For instance, for
twenty cents we can go over to
Kansas City and buy a par of
shoes for about eighteen cents
less than we could get them for
at home and then find that they
are mostly paper, or leather
scrapings. Taxation is much
lower here than in Missouri
Valley, one property with a
market value of about $4,000
paying a tax of $51, or less than
one-half of one per cent on
market value. About two-thirds
of this tax is for school pur-
poses. We have six buildings
(ive of which are now in use
and one not completely with a
corps Of forty teachers. But
in one thing at least they are
behind Missouri Valley; they
do not have free text books.
In the matter of industries,
there are several quite ex-
tensive ones, a large Touring
mill, a foundry, two blaming
mills. besides scores of smaller
establishments, besides several
skin-games, such as real estate
Offices, etc. AS to Sunday OBJ
servance, we believe we never
saw a place where Sunday was
SO universally observed as here.
OF course, we suppose the sa-
looms do some business on Sun
day, but then you know ALL
animals must get their living
on Sunday as we'll as on any
other day.
independence is a pretty
good place to live, and while we
have not tried it yet, we Judge
it would be an equally good
place to die in, especially as we
now have an association formed
on purpose to bury people, in
which each member pays a GER
tain amount per month to the

An Interesting Letter From ". Fl.
Donaldson.

Independence, Mo, May Is,
'05. Friend Robert: We have
for a long time suppressed our
desire to infict ourselves upon
your readers, hoping that some
time we would have accumu-
lated sufficient knowledge of
Kansas City and independence
to enable us to tell your patrons
something of these cities, but
we find our range of observa
tion is almost entirely limited
to the ten mile ride, twice a
day, on the subul ban electric
line between the two places,
and to the interior cf our Office
building.
Our home is in In dependence,
a nice little city of 10000, tFe
county seat of Jackson county.
1t is commonly considered a
suburb of Kansas City, but it
isa seperate and distinct mu-
nicipality, although there is
very little open country be-
tween the two places, along the
car line. One of the first no
ticed features of independence
is.its roominess and it's shade
trees. The streets are wide and
in the business portion are of
asphaltum; over a portion of
the residence part they are
macadamized, as also all the
main roads in the country for
miles from the city in every
direction. There are an abun-
dance of shade trees natural
ones and while they are per-
haps not so symmetrical as
artificial shrubbery, yet they
make good, wholesome, invig-
Grating shade. And, by the
way, did you ever notice, while
admiring a we'll kept lawn and
beautiful shrubbery, how nice
it was to have the shade of a
huge elm around somewhere
shin reach? To the average
perso.l, and to children in par
ticular, a day in the woods, un-
der the big trees, among the
climbing vines, is a day long to
be remembered. the singing,
fitting birds and the chattering
squirrels skipping from tree to
tree painting a picture in strong
contrast to the bare, hard,
scorching streets of the city
with its noise and hustle and
hurry. And yet, when a city is
built, one Of the first things
done is to remove as nearly as
possible every trace of rest
and comfort and content
ment, and lay every line ac-
cording to the precept, "Hew
to the line, let chips fall where
they may" and then in a few
years spend thousands of dol
lars for fixing up park where
people may go and lie on the
grass in the shade of trees.
Every home should be park,
with grass and trees and flow
ers, and such, we are glad 10
say, are a great majority Of tie
homes in independence. The
town has apparently escaped
the craze to remove every trace
of natures beauty. Scores Of
homes have from one to FIVE
acres of ground, and each one
a natural park. The place ad-
joining ours on the west COR
tains about ten acres, and the
one on the south two acres, on
both of which are a great many,
grand old forest trees from two
to five ,feet'in diameter. Under
these trees no doubt dwelt the
red man and his papoose, and
these same grand old veterans
of the forest that once heard
the war, whoops or listened to
the song. of the Indian lover
now cast their delightful shades
over the preansWard nnakinr
