Thanksgiving Day.

The idea of the first Thanksgiving
day was originated nearly three cen
turtles ago by the old New England in
habitants and was observed at the
close of the harvest season. The idea
soon spread to the other states but t
was not until 1862 that the first ma
tional proclamation was issued. 1t
was not until 1853 that sufferers from
stomach, liver and bowel troubles had
their first opportunity to test the mer-
its of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, and
how thankful thousands of sickly peo-
pie have been since then for it's intro
duction. 1t has made an unequalled
record of cures of indigestion, dyspep-
STA, costiveness, biliousness, nausea,
sleeplessness, poor appetite, female
ills, chills, colds and malaria, fever
and ague. We urge every sick man
or woman to try it at once. Be sure
to get Hostetter's.

AMANA COLONY OF IOWA WINS RIGHT
TO EXIST AFTER TRIAL IN THE COURTS

it establishes the general principle
that a religious sect may own real
estate and administer it's affairs after
the fashion of Amana.
The case came up to the supreme
court on appeal by the plaintiff, who
was formerly a member of the com
munity, and who petitioned for a re-
ceiver that he might share in the lrl-
crative income of Amana. 1t is as
serted that this recalcitrant had
broken the rules of the brotherhood
before he left.
Amana is famous the world over
as the one successful institution of
the kind, Brook Farm is only a glow
ing and beloved memory in the hearts
of admirers of the literary men who
lived there. The Oneida community
in New York has had rough expert
ences in the courts, of recent and I'M
sanctified memory is Dowie's Zion
city But Amana has prospered for
many years and remains the haven
and delight of those who dwell there
in, and the theme of all the sociolog
lists of the United States.

The best treatment for indigestion
and troubles of the stomach is to rest
the stomach. 1t can be rested by star
walton or by the use of a good digest
ant, which will digest the food eaten,
thus taking the work off the stomach
At the proper temperature a single tea
spoonful of Kodol will wholly digest
5000 grains of foods. 1t relieves the
present annoyance, puts the stomach
in shape to satisfactorily perform it's
functions. Good for Indigestion, sour
stomach, fiatulence, palpitation of the

The Iowa supreme court has hand
ed down a decision which decides the
famous Amana colony litigation, the
society winning out at all points, and
the decision being victory for Judge
Wade of Iowa City. in whose hands
were the interests of the society. The
famous religious community may con-
tinue undisturbed in possession of its
100000 worth of property and no
wOrldy-minded receiver will interfere
with the peaceful progress of the Iowa
county commune.

The city of Kewanee decided that
the practice of selling cast off cloth

sales endangers the health of the city
as disease germs not bargained for,
often fall to the possession Of the

Jewel Mystery.-A comedy drama
with big scenic equipments depicting
life in New York. will be at the Illinois
theater Wednesday. Nov. %. The
play is called "The Great Jewel Mys-
terry" and is written by Mark E. Swan
to give full advantage to James and
John Russell, those inimitable delinea-
tors of female Irish character.
Tonight at the Grand.-In the new
De Koven and Ranken comic opera,
"Happyland,' De Wolf Hopper has the
greatest success he has scored since
"El Captain" The composer and IL
brettist wisely determined TO return
to the forms of real comic opera, 4
style of entertainment in which Mr..
Hopper stands without a rival. That
they succeeded is evidenced by the ire
mendous vogue attained by Happy
land" since its first production. New
York fairly raved over the charming
music and clean, wholesome fun of the
piece. and this verdict has been ap-
proved by record audiences in Chica-
go. ST. Louis. Kansas City. Cleveland
and Washington. Hopper has never
been funnier in his life and he is sup
ported by dainty Marguerite Clark and
the De Wolf Hopper company. which
is an opera company in fact as well
as in name 1t is the best singing or
ganization in the country. Sam s. and
Lee Shubert have given "Happyland
thoroughly artistic and beautiful pro-
duction. Mr.. Hopper will present
"Happyland" at the Grand opera house.
