Two of Iowa's intellectual giants
are in the political arena battling for
the executive scepter. So long as they
do not hurt each other the people of
Iowa have no cause to be anxious, as
in the hands of either of the combat
ants. BY way of noting how diversi-
fed are the opinions OF man, permit
me to call attention to a curious Or
ganiZation in CINCINNATI, Ohio, the
sole purpose of which is to suppress
music. Here is quotation from a
manifesto issued by this organization
on a special occasion: shall we then
suffer the fearful monster of music to
longer stalk abroad to corrupt our
youth and undermine the pillars of
government and our most cherished
institutions? Emphatically No! thou
sand times no! Down with music!" etc.
We have seen many odd and question
able movements gather head and
amuse the world by butting their
brains out against impossibilities, but
this cocks the last cannon. Were / to
take it seriously it would be mentally
nauseating. A society for the sup
preston of west winds would be no
more ludicrous. If they ever chance
to visit Audubon county we will, in
Difference to their belief, entertain
them with a full Hedged charivari
gang, just to show them what the alb
sence of music might mean. 1t might
be of interest to add that, according
to the Family Herald and Weekly
Star. the father of Nicholas Long
worth, who married Alice Roosevelt,
was one of the founders of this unique
society.
I'm, Oh, so weary, sad and lone!
Far out in the world l spent the day;
And, see! the flowers | plucked are
dead
And sinking now with foul decay.
To pluck handful of delight
| wandered from noble course.
To night I'm feeling through dark,
Pursued by wolves of black remorse.

That's what a prominent
druggist said of SCOTS
Emulsion a ST Ort time
ago. AS a rule we don't
use or refer to testimonials
in addressing the public,
but the above remark and
S i m la + expressions are
made SO often in Connec-
ton with SCOTS Emulsion
that they are worthy of
occasional note. From
infancy to old age SCOTS
Emulsion offers a reliable
means of remedying inn
proper and weak develop
ment, restoring lost flesh
and vitality, and repairing
waste. The &C t on of
SCOTS Emulsion is no
more of a secret than the
composition of the Emul-

it does through nourish-
