DIES AFTER AN HOURS
ILLNESS.
L. j. Pau! of Logan Called
Suddenly Last Evening at
The kicI Hotel.

Nonpareil. March 16:
"How heavy my arms are!w
With these words l.. j. Paul,
an old resident Of Logan, who
was in the city as a member of
the United States grand jury
panel, died of heart failure at
the Kiel hotel about 9 o'clock
last evening after an illness of
less than half an hour. Dur
ing the day MI. Paul had been
over to Omaha and had eaten a
hearty supper, declaring that
he was feeling in the best of
health.
Shortly after 8 o'clock last
evening Mr.. Paul complained
of pains in the region of the
heart and announced his inten-
ton OF retiring. In a few min
utes he called for a bell boy
and requested a physician, DIR.
N. j. Rice being summoned.
The heart action of the man
was very low and a hypodermic
/ injection was administered, but
before further medicine could
be obtained Mr.. Paul breathed
his last.
L. j. Paul was GO years of
age and a resident of Logan
for many years, being employed
as a collector. His family, in
Guiding a wife and children,
arrived from Logan last night
at II o'clock. The deceased,
while never a robust man, had
heretofore been in good health.
The body was taken to Cutters
undertaking establishment and
will be shipped to Logan this
morning, where the burial will
take place.

This was the reply ola street

You've got to holler," he said,

Dan'l thought it was very
gentlemanly to say it that way,
and mabbe it was, but he didn't
sell no blackberries until he

make a fortune, and also a
great reputation for his
remedy" People seeing it
advertised long and persistent
ly would come, he said, to as
sociate with its powerful medi-
cal qualities which it never
possessed, but the thought act
ing on the mind would produce
such beneficial results that he
could easily obtain scores of
testimonials for marvellous
cures. Whether this statement
is entirely reliable or not, there
is certainly the basis of a great
truth in it. The influence of
keeping persistently before the
eyes and holding before the
mind the name and qualities of
an article is bound to make an
impression more or less per-
manent so that, when the per-
son thus impressed wants any
thing in the line of the article
he has so long seen advertised,
he will, by the law of associa-
ton, be more likely to get that
one which has made such a
strong impression on his mind
than something with which he
is less familiar. Success.

By a Dam Site.

We believe Bailey of Britt is
responsible for this:
"Tfle state of Iowa gave a
thu and dollars toward build
ing 4 dam between big and lit
tie Spirit lakes. The owners of
the mill at Milford said dam it
they couldn't. The state said
dam it they could, and then the
case went into court; the mill
men getting out a dam injunc-
ton. The people around Spirit
Lake said they wouldn't be
damned and the state said be
damned they would. And
those who didn't want to fight
just the same. Some said the
fish couldn't get up by a dam
site, and others said that a dam
site could be built with a fish
way that would let the damned
fish go up so that some of them
would be damned above the
dam and others below the dam.
The mill owners said the
damned outlet by a mill site
was dam enough and they didn't
want any more dam by a dam
site. Then the case came be-
fore Judge Quarton of Algona.
Quarton knows a dam site from
a mill site, and a mill dam site
more about lots of other things
than some folks have got hay,
and he dissolved the injunction
in soft water. The dam site
will now be above the mill site
and the damned fish can go
where they please for all Quar-
ton cares after the dam fish
way is put in, and it is hoped
that the damned lake will now
fill up so the damned mud
turtles can get a drink and let
the Spirit Lakers run their
damned boats and stop a dam
site of controversy.
And although this sounds like
swearing, there isn't a swear
word in it. 1t shows the ca
liabilities of the English lam
guage, how words of the same
sound but spelled differently
and of different meaning can
be woven together to make one
meaning by spelling and defini-
ton and another one by sound"

made a box so low that Biddy

Death Of Judge L. G. Kline,
of Des Moines.

vi LIES MOlneS.
Again the death angel has
visited the home of one of
1owa's most distinguished
men, and Hon. L. G.. Kline is
numbered with the d.. |.
On last Thursday evening at
his home in Des Moines, while
seeming in good health, he was
taken with a heart failure ard
suddenly expired.
The deceased had long been a
leading man in Iowa, once the
Democratic candidate for Gov.
of Iowa, and later elected a
member of the Supreme Court
OF Iowa, and reelected, and ap-
pointed, by Gov. Larabee, the
Democratic member of the State
Board of Control, and held that
position at the time of his death.
He was an able attorney, and a
distinguished Judge, and highly
respected by all who knew him,
and his death is a loss to the
State, and will bring sorrow to
many people. He was broad
minded, generous, and had a
very pleasant personality. The
cause of his death was heart
failure and came like a thief in
the night and death was very
sudden.
Many of our citizens will re-
member him, as he, during his
cavass for Governor, addressed
the people in this city and made
many personal friends.
1t is wonderful to note the
number of distinguished men,
of this country who are passing
away, but none more regretted
than Judge L. G. Kline.
Every church down at Coon
Rapids is holding revival SER
vice at the same time. There
are 400 guilty sinners in that
town who ought to be CONVEX

is so fierce that they are like
the boy in a candy store with a
penny-they don't know what,
to take. -Denison Bulletin.
