Some Pure Whiskey.

Whiskey presents grave problem
to the state food and dairy commits.
stoner's office. A manufacturer who
makes delicious concoction for hui.
man consumption out Of shredded
shavings seasoned with wooden nut
megs can be punished under the pure
food laws Of Iowa. But distiller who
makes pure quill whiskey out of alco-
hol and prune juice with little color
Ing matter and an injection of fusel
oil cannot be touched. At least it is
feared he cannot be touched under
the Iowa law. 1t takes about four
years to make genuine whiskey and
about four minutes to make the manu-.
featured kind. AS the manufactured
article has all the qualities of whiskey
the question is whether or not it is
whiskey. Finally the question has
confronted the state food and dairy
commissioners office, what is whis-
key, anyway" The pure food law
covers beverages as we'll as foods and
hence 1t becomes necessary for the
food and dairy commissioner to know
something about beverages for he is
under oath to do his duty as defined
by the law.

Messrs. Bryan and Gompers simply de-
grades the profession Of journalism.
There isn't a man living with two ideas
above a mud turtle who believes that
Colonel Bryan is either "hypocrite'
or "fakir" or that President Gompers
is either "demagogue" or an 'ignora-
mus" Such epithets act as boomer
ang against the man who hurls them at
such eminent personages as Bryan and
Gompers. The thing concerning Bryan
which appears to worry the GID.
most Is that he has received such a
splendid ovation in Europe and Asia
from all sorts and conditions of people
especially because he walked away
with the honors at the international
peace conference. There Is no good to
come of "gnawing file" Billings
gate never won an election yet, and I'M
less human nature is greatly changed
1t never will win one. Some day, some
how, that idea will percolate through
the brains Of Republican editors and to
that extent enlarge their understanding
"a contamination devoutly to be
wished. Abuse will not turn Messrs.
Bryan and Gompers from the paths
which they choose to pursue.

Habit-forning Medicines.

Whatever may be the fact as to many
tanning injurious ingredients as broadly
published in some Journals of more or
less influence, this publicity has certainly
attention to this subject, It has, In
considerable measure. resulted In the
most intelligent people avoiding such
foods and medicines as may be fairly sus-
pected of containing the injurious ingre-
dents complained Of. Recognizing this
fact some time ago. DR.; Pierce OF Bnt1alG,
were, and published broadcast all the
ingredients of which his popular medi-
cines are composed. Thus he has COM
pletely forestalled all harping CRITICS and
all opposition that might otherwise, 30
urged against his medicines, because they
thermore, from the formula printed on
every bottle wrapper, it will be seen that
these medicines contain no alcohol Or
other habit-forming drugs. Neither do
they contain any narcotics or injurious
agents, their ingredients being purely
vegetable, extracted from the roots OF
medicinal plants found growing In the
depths of our American forests and Of
well recognized curative virtues.
Instead of alcohol, which even in small
portions long continued, as In obstinate
cases of diseases, becomes highly objec-
tiOnabe from its tendency to produce q
craving for stimulants, DR.. Pierce em-
ploys chemically pure, triple refined
glycerine, which of itself is valuable
remedy in many cases Of chronic diseases,
being a superior demulcent, antiseptic,
antiferment and supporting nutritive.
1t enhances the curative action Of the
Golden Seal root, Stone root, Black
Cherrybark and Bioodroot, contained in
~Golden Medical Discovery" in all bron-
chial, throat and lung affections attended
with severe coughs. AS will be seen from
the writings of the eminent Drs.. Grover
Coe, of New York; Bartholow, of Jeffer..
son Medical College, Phila.; Scudder, Of
CINCINNATI; Ellingwood, of Chicago;
Hale, of Chicago, and others, who stand
as leaders in their several schools of
practice, the foregoing agents are the
pery best ingredients that DR.. Pierce
could have chosen to make up his ia
nous discovery for the, cure of not
only bronchial, throat and lung affec..
tions, but also of chronic catarrh in al
its various forms wherever located.

HAPPENINGS In IOWA
NEWS OF THE WEEK THROUGH.
People of Jefferson County Engaged in
a Mad Hunt for the Buried
Gold of Old Chief Black
Hawk.
OUT THE STATE.

All Jefferson county is engaged In
mad hunt for the buried gold of old
Chief Black Hawk, clue to which
was not long discovered in tearing
down an old log cabin. 1t was while
workmen were engaged in destroying
the cabin built in 1888 by Rh1,dham
Bonnifield that they found an frkhorn,
quill case and musty old pocketbook.
The pocketbook contained an 1928
newspaper clipping, physicians re-
cipt and a letter. This letter, though
badly faded, was read with the help of
magnifying glass. 1t was written at
Frisco, addressed to William and
signed 81. w." In part the letter says:
"You know what found out from
Black Hawk over from Hi
nois. | looked, but never thought I'M
til got nearly out here. About that
there map, it weren't where the lines
cross, but in the middle. Now don't
you tell anyone, but try this here plan
(map follows). You see we always
made the mistake of digging at cross
ing A. That other Indian Jim knowed
llOl tHdu lle iSl OL ueIS US
near $4,000 and mebbe more, accord
ing to what Black Hawk fetched that
time"
The landmarks on the map are re-
membered by old settlers, and tree
shown in 1t still remains 1t Is sup.
posed that Black Hawk received this
gold in payment from the government.
There Is an old story about the coun-
try that three braves were given the
task Of finding hiding place for the
money, three being chosen so that if
one or two of them should be killed
the survivor could tell where the treas
ure was buried. At 1t happened, all
three of these Indians were killed not
long after, and this is said to be the
reason why the gold was never re-
covered.
Who the writer or recipient of the
old letter were none can tell. Neither
| can it be understood how they could
find out anything about the location of
the gold. However, Jefferson county
people are giving themselves the bene.
fit of the doubt by digging all around
the indicated spot.

Risks Life to Save Child.

George G. Smith, aged seventy-hve
years, president of the Clinton Paper
company, was seriously If not fatally
injured, in an automobile accident on
Fourth street at Clinton. Mr.. Smith
was driving his machine along on that
street when several children ran out,
two attempting to climb onto the back
of the car, while a third ran in front
Of the machine. Mr.. Smith swerved
the auto suddenly to avoid running
over the child, and 1t collided with a
tree, throwing him out. Two of his
ribs were broken, and he received in
ternal injuries, the extent Of which
have not been determined.

"a Georgetown Craze"

When I was q boy back in the hill
country Of Kentucky, when anybody
succeeded or lost anything by narrow
margin. 1t was said that he won or lost
''by Georgetown grace" How the
expression originated this deponent
saith not, but 1t meant "Close-
Close" Out at Leavenworth, Kan, the
heirs Of Or. Nicely, prominent politi-
clan, came into $45, 900 Of life insurance
money ''by Georgetown Craze" The
thirty days of grace on his policies ran
out at midnight. Just fifteen minutes
before that he departed this life, leav-
Ing his family that much better off and
the insurance company that much
worse off. It was close call, certain
Iva case In which the old saying, "a
miss is as good as mile" applies. In
fact, the phrase 'by Georgetown
gcaze" fts many other things besides
Or. Neely's life insurance. Mark Twain
gives q most amusing but at the same
time pathetic account Of how he and
two partners In the mining business
were potential mlllionaires for GER
tain number Of days after discovering
what subsequently proved bonanza.
Each Of the three depended on the
other two to comply with the techni-
calities as to doing certain things re

time. Each was negligent. Each real
ICED at last that he had better be on
the ground in time. Each reached the
ground ten minutes too late. Al. three
met there only to find that some more
vigilant person had filed en- the claim
and was in possession, and all three
went away sorrowfulty and poor.
At one period of his career Edward
Everett was q Wing presidential posi-
bility, but an upWashed Democrat,
Marcus Morton, defeated him for the
governorship of Massachusetts, By pne
vote, which put him completely out OF
the presidential running. Strange to
relate, it was Wing legislature which
counted and declared the vote. What
an elegant president Everett would
have made need not be reeounted here.
He was the most polished Of all our
great orators.
Napoleon lost the battle of Waterloo
by two Georgetown grazes. Had Ney
taken Quatre Bras, as he was ordered
10 do and as he reported he had done
two days previous to that fateful June
Sunday when Napoleon's star set for
ever, the chances are ten to one that
the mighty Corsican would have died
on the throne. Also II Grouchy had
kept Blucher off the field Wellington
would have received such thrashing
as to justify Joe Sedley's precipitate
and inglorious h4ght from Brussels.

kato, Mimi, where they were married.
The marriage probably cost the girl
$250,000 estate and eliminated her
chances of four years college
course. The girl is the granddaughter
Of Levi Coy, the wealthiest farmer in
Iowa. Howard is the son of a miner.
The grandfather opposed his suit for
the girl and made threats to disin-
herit her if she had anything to do
with Howard. He thought his plan
was successful because he did not see
the couple together. The girl is eigh-
teen years old and is said to be very
beautiful.

sting Kills Woman.

While changing trains at Marion,
Mrs. Clara Box Of Ute, Ia, wife of
Loren Box, the station agent at that
town, was stung on the temple by
some sort Of an insect. She paid lit
tie attention to the injury but con-
tinued her journey home. The next
day she was taken violently i'll and the
following morning died of blood poi
soning. Terrible agony accom- panied
her end. One side of her face was
swollen to twice Its natural size. Three
physicians worked strenuously to save
the young woman, but their efforts
were in vain. 1t is not known what
kind of an insect stung Mrs. Box.
