MRS JAMES EAST is DEAD
A Long time Resident of Audubon
County Dies in Atlantic.

Our Greeley Correspondent says
that preparatory to the formal details
ia connection with the demise of Mrs.
y James East it seems apropos to say
that in the vicinity of Old Hamlln,
where this esteemed lady resided for
many happy years and was one of the
main factors in building up one of the
most exemplary homes in Audubon
county, she was regarded as a model
mother and wife. From her meek and
lowly personality emanated an inilu-
ence wholesome to home and society.
The feeling that something very pre-
cious has gone from earth is not con
fined to the East home: it is universal
in the sphere of her acquaintance.
Her death was almost tragic in that
she met the dread monster on the
threshold of a newly prepared home
where she, with her husband and
daughter, Miss Hattie East, was re
firing to bask in the calm afterglOw
of noble career.
MOTHERS HANDS.
There is no other like mother
| Upon this StOrm-swept sphere.
THAT'S why we stand and hold this
hand
SO limpid, cold. so dear.
1t was our guide before she died,
1t rocked my cradle bed,
And oh. how oft, tender and soft,
She laid it on my head.
To end the reign of cruel pain
And bring me ease and rest
Let me hold them there now fold
them
On that holy breast.
Mrs. Harriet East, of 703 Hickory
street, died at her home. in this city,
on Friday afternoon, April II, 1907,
after an illness of several years. Mrs.
East had been a resident Of this city
but a, ShOrt time, she and her husband
having removed her2 from near Old
Hamlin, up in Audubon county, only
nineteen days ago, The end was moi
unexpected by the family, as she had
been in bad condition for the past
number of days.
! Mrs. East was born at Dawsbury
Yorkshire, England, on March 2l
1910, her maiden name being Clegg
and she was married at POughkeepsie
New York State. February %, 1868
to Mr.. James East who, with -four
children, still survive her. They are
Mrs. Charles Baird, of Hamlin, Iowa;
Frank East, of MaSsena: Clyde East
of Hamlin: and Miss Hattie East, with
her father. at home: all of whom were
assembled at the bedside when she
passed away. Mr. and Mrs. James
East resided nine years at Port Byron,
Rock Island county, Illinois, which
was the birthpl ace of all of their child
rem. She was devoted wife and a
loving mother, highly esteemed by all
who knew her. She was baptized in
the Episcopal church when a child
and has since lived christian life.

THE ARTISTIC WALL.
One of Solid Color Will Always Give
Best Effect.

The dearest, daintiest, most artistic
wall is solid colored wall. 1t fur
nishes perfect background for all
kinds of pictures, it throws them out
in their correct proportions, and does
not detract from their artistic value.
The solid colored wall is also much
better as a background for furniture,
and harmonizes much more artistical-
ly with carpets and rugs than any
other method of wall treatment. The
less breaking up of color on a wall
the more artistic it is.
The most successful form of the
solid colored wall is an alabastined
wall. There is as much difference be-
tween tinted walls, as there is be-
tween shoddy and Atwood gowns. The
shoddy gown holds its color for few
days, while the Atwood keeps it's color
to the very last thread, so also in solid
colored walls, there are shoddy walls
and permanently colored walls which
retain their color down to the very
last particle. The ideal wall coating
never rubs off, never fakes nor chips
off and is always ready for a fresh
coat. If there is wallpaper on the
wall, soak 1t off with warm water,
then go over the plaster after you
have removed the paper with warm
water to remove every trace of paste.
Have the wall thoroughly clean for a
clean wall cannot be built on an I'M
clean foundation. If there are any
particles of foreign matter adhering
to the wall scrape them off with a
putty knife. Then if there are any
discolorations on the wall, size it with
a material made from cheap varnish,
thinned down with benzine and japan
added for a drier, then cover your
wall with your tinting material.
Be sure your man uses tinting ma
comes to you and asks for warm wa
ter, you can make up your mind that
there is glue in the material which he
proposes to put on your wall, and you
can be certain that you are going to
have shoddy wall, for glue means
shoddy. Glue means that it will hold
it's color long enough for the man to
collect his bill and not much longer.
Insist on your tinting material being
mixed with clear, cold water Be sure
that your wall is made from pure ma
terials, then you will have a perma-
nent, artistic, sanitary wall. A wall
that will be thing of beauty and a
Joy forever"

Old Baseball Story.

Some odd things occur In the

FOOLED THE PREACHER.
A Doctors Brother Thought Postum
Was Coffee.

A wise doctor found out coffee was
hurting him, so he quit drinking it.
He was so busy with his practice,
however, that his wife had to write
how he fooled his brother, a clergy
man, one day at dinner. She says:
Doctor found coffee was injuring
him and decided to give Postum a
trial, and we have used it now for
four years, with continued benefit. In
fact, he is now free from the long
train Of ills that follow coffee drink
ing.
ITO show how successful we are
IN making Postum properly will re-
lite an incident. At dinner We
gave, Doctor suggested we serve
Postum instead of ordinary coffee.
Doctors brother, a Clergyman, sup
posed it was old fashioned coffee and
remarked, as he called for his Sec
ond cup: If you do preach against
coffee, see you haven't forgotten how
to make it,
This goes 10 show that well-made-
fully boiled-Postum has much the
flavor and richness of good coffee al
though it has an individuality all it's
own. A ten days trial will prove that
it has none of the poisonous effect of
ordinary coffee, but will correct the
troubles caused by coffee. There's a
reason" Name furnished by Postum

Trickery Squelched
in Baseball Drafting
National Commission Forbids Major
Leagues to Take Players from
Minor League Clubs.

Important changes in the rules for
drafting minor league players have
been made by the national baseball
commission. At the request of the
Pacific Coast league the national
agreement is changed so that here
after the drafting period in that
league shall begin and end at the same
period as the drafting period in all
other minor leagues, TO wit, Septem
Der / to October Is of each year.
In order fully to protect the prop.
erty rights of minor league clubs and
to prevent the drafting of players con-
trary to the spirit of the national
agreement the following new rule was
adopted:
Rule 45--Whenever a major league
club has secured a minor league play.
err by draft, it shall not be permissible
for such major league club within
one year after having secured such
player by draft to release the player
to any other club in the same class

not do So Attell did the prettiest
footwork of which he was capable,
but Sullivan, co0 as an icicle, had
speed enough to Offset the famous
left jab of Attell. He would beat the
champion to the jab and, ducking I'M
der, rip over a left uppercut to the
stomach.
This was what happened in the
fifth round, when both men came to
the center in fine condition: Attell
danced in and out, trying to confuse
his opponent, hut Redtop was quite at
ease, and when Able tried for a left
jab to the nose, Tommy ducked under
and landed in the stomach. Attell
rolled over and over, and yelled foul,
but three doctors who were called in
to the ring to examine the beaten
man were unable to find any marks
ON the body below the belt, while
red spot in the pit of the stomach
seemed to tell the story. In any
event Attell's claim of foul was not
Sullivan.
Sullivan has done other things than
knock out Abe Attell, and they are
things that are quite as praiseworthy,
if not more so.
For example, Sullivan fought ten
round draw with Terrible Terry Nc
Govern in 1897, at a time when the
Brooklyn Terror was very frisky.
Sullivan beat George Dixon in six
rounds in 1899, and the Redtop got
the decision over Jack Hamilton in 20
rounds in the same year. Then in
1901, when the fighting game had be-
come slow in this vicinity Sullivan
went to st. Louis and took position
as boxing instructor. He also did con-
siderable fighting, his best perform
ance in the west next to his victory
over Attell being a decision over Kid
Herman in 20 rounds in 1908. Sulli-
van also beat Eddie Santry in Is
rounds, Tommy Feltz in 20 rounds
and generally made a good impress
sion.
Sullivan, who is native of Brook
lyn, was a factory boy and started
boxing as an amateur. His first note
worthy victory was over another
Brooklynite. Johnny Reagan, Sulli-
vans first professional encounter, was
with a youth who took the place of
Reagan in a match for which Reagan
failed to appear. Sullivan beat the
substitute and got his first purse, ST.
Sullivan's first important professional
bout was with Patsy Haley, then at
his best. Sullivan was only 1S years
old. but he fought the clever Haley to
a draw in 20 rounds. After that bout
Sullivan went to the front rapidly. If
he succeeds in getting match with
AttelI the encounter will attract wide
attention.

MRS. CHAS. A. ROcKWOOD

are constantly being received by
Mrs. Pinkham to prove our claims.
Mrs. G. A. lockwood, teacher of
Parliamentary Law, of So Free St.,
Fredonia, N. Y, writes:
"For years suffered with female trouble.
It was decided that an operation was neces-
sary, and although submitted to serious
operation my sufferings continued, until
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
was recommended and it proved marvellous
remedy, so quickly did it restore my health.
I cannot thank you sufficiently for the good
it has done me-"
Miss Margaret Tierney, of No. 32s
w. 25th Street, New York, writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
"When only eighteen years of age our
physician decided that an operation was
necessary to permit Of my womanly organs

Brooklyn Boy Seeks
Featherweight Title
Tommy Sullivan After Another Match
With Abe Attell, Whom He
Once Defeated.

Beyond question Tommy Sullivan,
the red-topped Brooklyn boy who for
some years has been employed as box
ing instructor of the Missouri Athletic
club in st. Louis, has better right to
ask for a battle with Abe Attell for
the featherweight title than any other
man in that class. The reason is that
Sullivan has to his credit knockout
of Attell in five rounds. The bout
took place in st. Louis in 1904, and
naturally, like nearly all boxers who
have been knocked out, Attell insists
that it was not fairly done. 1t was a
vigorous left-hand uppercut in the pit
of the stomach that settled Attell in
the fifth round, and the beaten man
insisted that the blow was foul. Ac-
cording to the historians of the bout
Attell was over-confident when he
went into the ring and, being at his
best, he had decided first to cut up his
man and then to knock him out.
Attell tried to take liberties with
Sullivan in order to discredit him with
the crowd. but he soon found he could

player at the drafting price paid by
the major league club. This rule, how
ever, shall not be retroactive, that is
to say, it shall only apply to drafts to
be made in the future.
In submitting lists of purchased
players as required at present, all
major league clubs must hereafter file
with the commission copies of the
agreements entered into relating to
such purchases; it being the intent
and desire of the commission to make
close inquiry into all agreements pro-
viding for purchase, in order that all
the transactions may be bona-fide, and
not made with the view of protecting
of clubs, retaining players, thereby
preventing the players developing in
their profession, and enabling them
to secure adequate compensation for
their experiences, as is provided by the
national agreement. Copies of agree

At the first sign of Backache or pain
in the region of the Kidneys, or weak

ing simple prescription should be
used:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Take teaspoonful after each
meal and at bedtime.
Any good prescription pharmacy
will supply these three ingredients at

Why should this be the case :?


Because they have neglected them
selves, as every one of these patients
in the hospital beds had plenty of
warning in those dragging sensations,
pains at left or right Of abdomen,
backaches, nervous exhaustion, in
fammation, liberation, displace-
ments, and other organic weaknesses.
All of these symptoms are indica-
tons of an unhealthy condition of the
female system and If not needed the
penalty has to be paid by dangerous
operation. When these symptoms
manifest themselves, do not drag
along until you are obliged to go to
