To Meet c. o. D. EVIL.

bill which will be introduced at the
coming session of the Iowa legislature
is intended to supply the long desired
remedy for the c. 0. ID. express liquor
evil. The bill has been drawn by
Albert ]. Smith. Of Mt. Ayr, who has
long been active in in temperance work.
1t has been submitted to other attor-
neys who desire to see the liquor traffic
restricted, and they approve of it's
phraseology as we'll as it's purpose.
Hon. A. c. Rankin, one of the foremost
temperance workers Of the state, who
recently spent week in the temper
ance work in Mt. Ayr, is enthusiastic
over the measure, and has announced to
his friends that he believes the solution
has been reached of the problem of how
to deal with the G. 0. d. express solici-
tors and other bootleggers.
While Mr.. Rankin was here he called
on MIR. Smith and they engaged in con-
versatlon as to the best means of meet
ing the bootlegging business. Mr.. Ran
kin expressed the idea that the liquor
solicitor must be taxed out of business
to which Mr.. Smith replied that he had
been working on that matter for years
and believed he had evolved the rem
edy. On explaining his idea to Mr.
Rankin, the latter was convinced that
| fhnV m tho iobt .l- !,
has since been an enthusiastic advocate
of the Smith idea, which is in brief that
the liquor solicitor must pay high
occupation tax.
1t is likely that the bill will be looked
after in the state senate by Hon. d. w
Turner, of Adams county, and in the
house by Hon. NJ. II. Bailey of Ringgold
county.
The complete draft of the measure is
as follows:
IAN act to provide for payment of ali
annual occupation tax for the business
OF selling Intoxicating liquors, except
from those who are now legally author
lied by law to make, manufacture
handle, or sell the same. and providing
penalty for the violation thereof.
BE it enacted by the General Assem-
bly, of the state of Iowa.
Section |. 1t shall be the duty of
any person, whether as owner, clerk
agent, servant, or employee, before
soliciting or taking orders for the sale
OF intoxicating liquors, except from
those who are now legally authorized
by law to make, manufacture, handle, or
sell the same, to pay an annual tax to
the county treasurer, for the use of the
county, of one thousand dollars, said
occupation tax to be paid in each coun-
ty where said business of soliciting
orders for the sale of Intoxicating
liquor is done.
Section >. Upon the payment of the
occupation tax as provided in section |
hereof, the county treasurer shall issue
to any such person a receipt therefor
and Immediately cause to be published
the name of the person paying said tax
in two newspapers regularly published
in said county.
Section 3. Any person violating the
provisions of section ] hereof, shall be
guilty of a misdemeanor, and on convic
ton thereof shall be fined not less thar
three hundred dollars nor more thar
five hundred dollars, or be imprisoned
in the county jail not less than three
months nor more than one year, or botl
fined and imprisoned, and each orde
taken OF solicited shall constitute ;
separate offense."- Mt. Ayr News.

For Her Sake.

With the instinct of genuine dramatic
genius, the author of the play, "For Her
Sake" the new Russo-Siberian melo-
drama, which.is to be presented at the
Van Werden opera house, Jan. 10th, APP
pears to have drawn from the utter
most extremes of society for the char
acters whom heIproposed to involve in
intrigue. The hero of the play is a
nobleman and army officer; the heroine
is Russian serf girl. With these for
the central figures, the playwright has
grouped together Il big array of char
acters, embracing soldiers, convicts,
people of fashion, travellers, nihilists
and half dozen other sorts of people.
The company playing the piece, as may
he inferred, is an unusually large one.

The Belle of Today.

The woman with the sense of
humor is the belle OF the present
day. She is the fashion. Men
say she is novelty. If so, that
is one reason why she is the belle.
To be like every woman in a crowd
means social obliteration. To see
the funny side of things has more
than a social value, for the woman
who sees the funny side of every
day trials saves herself many
wrinkles, and saves her family
much suffering. The woman with
a sense of humor seldom worries
herself or her friends. She is like
a breath of fresh air-she refreshes
every one she meets. She is CHEEKY
and bit of her cheeriness remains
in the hearts of those who have
been near her. The woman who
sees the point of a joke is seldom
bilious, and almost always plump
and fair to look upon. She seldom
has the blues because she laughs in
the midst of them AMI spoils the
effect. The woman's husband
doesn't wear a long face as he
goes to business in the morning
and it is his own fault if he is a
dyspeptic. Her children are the
kind who relish play, and their
faces are lowered with rosy cheeks
and laughing lips. She, this
woman who sees the funny side OF
things, is a salve to wounded
spirits, and a moral, physical and
mental tonic.-Selected.

Short Notes.

Grated Irish potato scattered
freely, then we'll swept over, is re-
commended as a fine carpet cleaner,
reviving the colors without injury
to delicate shades.
Mildew stains of any kind may
safely be removed from leather with
a little pure vaseline. Rub in the
vaseline till absorbed and then
polish with chamois leather.
Eggs to be preserved for a few
months only may be vanished
with vaseline. This closes the pores,
keeps out the air, which is the sole
cause of albumen change, and they
will not turn rancid.
When putting away a tea or cot
fee pot which is not in daily use,
lay a stick across the top to keep
4
the cover from quite shutting down
This will prevent any musty taste
when the pot is used again. Some
people put a lump of sugar in the
pot for the same purpose.
When threading a needle in q
dim light, if the thread is white
hold it against a dark background
if dark, hold it against light back

japanese Marriage Laws.

Although Japan has revealed her
self as highly enlightened in so
many spheres Of civilization she
has not yet applied reformatory
principles to the institution of mar
rage. There is yet no such thing
in Japan as equality between the
sexes. The law relating to mar
rage recognizes no wrong except
on the part of the wife, from whom
the husband may obtain a divorce
by merely asserting that he is tired
of her, or upon any of the follow
ing grounds; Disobedience, adul-
terry, barrenness, jealousy, physic-
al antipathy, talkativeness or theft.
When a girl is about to marry
her mother inpresses upon her
various rules of conduct to be fol-
lowed during her welded life.
Some of these are: Be always
amiable to your mother in law and
father in law. Don't talk too much.
Get up early, go to bed late and
never sleep in the afternoon. Until
Won are fifty never mix in crowds.
Do not consult fortune tellers. Do
not wear light clothes. Be humble
and polite. Never allow yourself
to be jealous. Even if your hus-
band is in the wrong, never get
angry.
The following from an exchange
is appropriate just now. A far
mers boy was crossing a field where
a very wild and ferocious Spanish
bull was allowed to run at large,
and when he had about reached
the middle of the field he saw the
bull, with head lowered, rushing
at him. Being accustomed to
managing cattle, he was in nc
way disconnected, but ran to a tree
nearby and began running around
it with the bull after him. Present
ly he managed to catch the bull by
the tail, and commenced belabor-
ing him numerically with a stake
The bull, finding the tail was
turned, started off on a run the
| boy swinging on to him-but the
faster that he ran the more the
boy belabored him, until finally
the unfortunate brute began to
below. Oh" said the boy
increasing his blows, you may

in the D-L started this. Elk.

1t VIII be seen, therefore, that
whether judgment by this Court |

stood was squarely before the Court.
There was no intimatiOn IN respond |

supported by the evidence and that
the trial court should have given
judgment to that extent n favor OF
the plaintiff, that this Court ought
not to make an order directing such
d judgment to be entered instead of
remanding the case tor a new trial.
There was no suggestion that, in the
event this Court agreed with the con,
tention of appellant that judgment
should have been entered in favor OF
the plaintiff upon the findings. that
a new trial should be ordered so
that the defendants might have an
opportunity to offer evidence upon the
issues or that they nac any evidence
that might be SO offered
Counsel for respondents in the pre-
sentation of this case upon the hear
ing on appeal took the sole position
that under the rlaadings, findings and
evidence the appellant was entitled
TO no relief whatever. Although
counsel for appellant was asking that
Judgment be ordered entered in favor
OF plant ii in accordance with the
finding relative TO the sale Of the
sand, this finding is no where directly
attacked in respondents brief; in fact
ii is moi denied that the evidence was
sufficient to establish q safe Of sand
and license To remove the same, al
though it was and is claimed that
the proofs as 10 the limits with n
which the sand might be taken were
TOO indefinite
