Death of Little Girl.

Bertha Anderson. the daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Claus Anderson, 1918
Tenth street, died Monday evening at
the city hospital, aged II years. The
little girl had suffered intensely and
death came as a relief. She was first
taken i'll Feb. %, and this later devel-
oped into an abscess back of the ear,
and as her condition began to grow
critical, she was removed from her
home 10 the hospital II weeks ago.
An operation was performed. but the
poison had circulated throughout her
system and one of her limbs became
affected, which forced the doctors to
perform another operation i'll the hope
of saving the little one.

DIGGING UP THE LOCUSTS
Gardeners Find Seventeen-Year Bugs
Near Surface.

Some people in this vicinity have dug
up Iocusts of the 17-year variety while
spading their gardens or digging shall
low holes in the ground The insects
are near the surface and within a few
weeks will have burrowed their way
out and will be flying.
To the unsophisticated it may be
stated that after each appearance Of
the locusts. II years apart, the insects
drop to the ground and burrOw their
way deep into the earth. Just how
far down they 90 is not known, but in
digging deep wells they have been
found. So it is thought that they must
go down to bed rock. When the Il
years roll around they again find their
way to the surface, and their approach
is always discovered by persons till
ing the soil in the spring. Such is the
present case and it is stated that the
ground is well filled with the insects.

The Horrors of Whisky
Liquor Habit Disease-ReadiIy cura-
bic by Orrine, an lnfaiIible
Specific.

1t is now universally conceded that
drunkenness is a disease, and the
drunkard should be treated for this
disease with the one specific for its
cure, Orrine. This remarkable remedy
rtmoyes the craving for liquor; re-
stores the stomach to a normal cond:-
ton; creates a natural appetite, and
makes the user a man again, free from
all desire for strong drink.
Orrine is in two forms-No. l, to be
given without the patients knowledgt;
No. 2, for those who wish to be cured.
The medical profession indorses Or
rine. It can be used at home, and
cures the terrible habit without pub
licity or detention from business. Price
is only 81 a box. We recommend and
guarantee Orrine. II. o. ROLLS,

AN OLD SAYING.
Showing How Cause and Effect Are
Never Far Removed.

1t is an old saying Where there's
honey there's bees"-not less true is
one which science has coined more re
Gently. Where there's dandruff there's
germs"-and-to push the inference
still further we may truly say Where
there's dandruff cured Newbro's Herpi-
eide has been at work
The reason of Herpicide's isolation
as a genuine cure for dandruf lies in
the fact that it attacks and destroys
the root of the whole trouble-a para
site germ which feeds upon the mater
ial which nourishes the hair follicle.
Other socalled remedies are not di-
rected at this true cause of the disease.
Accept no substitute, there is none.

MOLINE MENTION.
w ant Parks.

Molines city council will doubtless
be presented with d park proposition
at the next regular meeting, because
at a meeting of the executive commit
tee of the Moline Improvement league
in the library building a motion car
ried that the council be petitiOned 10
make an appropriation for the building
and keeping of a park in the city.
Just how this will be received by the
council is not known. but the chances
are that the body will be in favor Of
this Improvement. II is generally
known that the mayor in his message
supported the idea of a park, and with
the chief executive and several of the
aldermen in favor of the move, the
prospects are bright for a great i'm
prOvement.

ROUP IN POULTRY.
Remove All Dirt in Cleaning House,
Then Administer Creosote in
Liberal Manner.

There is no better way of disinfect-
ing poultry houses, coops and other
buildings used for poultry than first
removing all dirt by scraping, taking
care to destroy the same by burning,
then dressing all parts with crude
creosote, and when this has thorough
ly dried in apply a good coat of lime
wash, adding one-half pint of carbolic
acid to each gallon of wash. In adj
dition to the above it is a good prac-
tice to fumigate with sulphur in the
usual way by putting flowers of sui
phur on red-hot Goals placed in an
iron vessel, previously closing all win
dows, doors. etc. The following is an
effectual way of treating roup if the
cases are taken sufficiently early:
Paint the head, beak, ETC., with weak
solution of iodine once each day, and
give the following mixed with soft
food: Sulphate of copper one-quarter
ounce, sulphate of iron one-half ounce.
burnt alum (powdered) one-quarter
once. This constitutes one dose for
from so to 100 birds, depending upon
age, size, etc. AS preventives a lump
Of camphor, which slowly dissolves.
placed in the drinking troughs. and
some flowers of sulphur given with
soft food about twice each week. are
