The Law as 20 Vaccination
of School Children.


Courier The Attorney General
to-day answered an inquiry as to
vaccination, which bad been sent
to the Governor and by him re-
ferred TO Mr.. Lyon. The letter
was written by Mr.. e F. AL
good. Of Liberty, Pickens county,
who states that his daughter,
Miss Elizabeth Allgood, is teach
ing school near Liberty, School
District No. 4; that Dr.. q. L
Martin, who is the agent OF the
State board OF health, came to
the school for The purpose OF vac
cinating all the pupils not already
vaccinated, and quite a number
refused to be vaccina,ed; that
Mr.. G.. l.. McWhor,er, who IS
chairman Of the board of trus-
tees, and patron Of the school,
on the following day came to
the school and stated that his
children, who had refused to be
vaccinated, chad 10 come to that
school and should not be vacci-
pated."
Mr.. Allgood wants to know
what his daughter should Go in
the matter, in view of the fact
that DIR. Martin had informed
her hat ii she admitted children
who had not been vsccinated she
would lay herself liable to fine
of 800.
Attorney General Lyon replied
to Mr.. Allgood by quoting the
law, Acts of 1905, page S71,
Section 4, which provides that
all children entering the public
schools must show evidence of
vaccination and imposing on both
the teacher and parent or guar
dian the duty of seeing that the
children are vaccinated and pro-
viding penalty of 800 fine OF
thirty days imprisonment. The
law is plain and DR.. Martin is
undoubtedly correct in what he
has told the teacher, If tn,
statement made by Mr.. Allgooc
is accurate, Mr.. McWhorter is ap
to lay himself liable both as trus
tee and parent.

Wants $4,000 for His Whis-
kerS.

New York, Sept George
Palmer, wealthy farmer at
Parksville, N. Y, has brought
suit for $4,000 damages in the
supreme court against John j.
Reisler, proprietor of barber
shop at 33S street and Broadway.
Palmer's grievance is that his
beard, of which he was quite
proud, was cut off by one Of
Reisler's employees. Palmer fell
asleep in the barber's chair, he
says, after having told the man
simply to trim his whlskers, but
the barber stupidity sheared off
all the whiskers and shaved his
face. The application of wet
towel on Palmer's face awoke
him, and when he realized that
his beard was gone he sought a
lawyer instantly and had suit
brought.

THE COST OF LIVING.

Do you know how much more on the
average it costs you to live than it did
in 1896? Bradstreet's commercial
agency, which keeps account of the ups
and downs of the price of commodities
has answered the question in the last
Issue of Bradstreet's which says:
Compared with the low level set on
July 1, 1896, the gain is 54.S per cent. "
So if it cost you $500 month to live
then, it now costs you over $3.50. The
protected trusts are the chief cause of
high prices, and there seems to be a
determination by the dominant politi-
cal party to refuse to revise the tariff
which protects the trusts and prevents
competition. If the republican party
wins in the coming national election,
Sile leaders will declare that it is an in
dorsement of the tariff policy of protect
ing the trusts, and there can be but little
relief from trust high prices as long as
the tariff protects them. AS large
profits have induced the trusts to manu-
facture more than the people can con-
sumo, the surplus is sold abroad at bar
gain prices. Why should not the Amer
lean people participate in these bar.

JOY OF POSSESSION,
How Owning a Little Farm Made

He who owns anything land IN par

lowing account of how certain man

Stations described are those felt, in
different degrees, by all possessors of
this worlds goods-from the boy who
earns new pair of copper-toed shoes
to the man who seizes an empire. 1t is
universal joy-this joy of possession.

BEST OFpROOF.
That Hyomei Will Cure All Forms
of Catarrhal Diseases.

Testimonials could be printed by the
thousand, many of them from Leon and
other nearby towns, that Hyomei is an
absolute cure for all catarrhal troubles,
but the best proof of it's unusual cura-
tive powers is the guarantee that L. P.
Van Werden will give with every outfit
that he sells, money back if Hyomei
does not do all that is claimed for it."
Hyomei is not secret remedy. It's
formula is given freely to physicians
who want to know what they use when
they prescribe Hyomei. 1t is guaranteed
under the Pure Food and Drug Law by
serial No. 141S.
By breathing Hyomei the healing
medicine goes directly to every nook
and corner of the air passages where
the catarrhal germs may Turk, and dis
infects and heals. To be convinced OF
this you have only to give tia trial
remembering that if it does not cure
LIP. Van Werden will refund your
money.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs but
$1.00, and in most cases is sufficient tx
cure the disease, making it not only
scientific treatment but one that il
highly economical. Getan outfit to-da.

IOWA REPUBLICAN FIGHT.

The Burlington Hawk-Eye publishes
a long review of the Iowa situation
from the pen of Julian Richards, the
general purport of which may be fairly
Judged from the headlines which the
Hawk-Eye contributes:
Julian W.Richards sees only sweep
ing victory for Senator Allison and
tells why"
Without reviewing the Richards es-
Inmates, the Register and Leader is
moved to ask what objection there can
be on the part of Senator Allisons
friends, in view of these confident
claims, to an agreement in advance
that the result of the primary shall be
accepted as final, and that under no
circumstances shall the shall the con-
test be carried into the legislative
districts.
This was the intent of the lawmakers.
This is what other states have done.
This is what every state is coming to-.
If this is not agreed to in advance, let
us see what promises to be the result.
Before the primaries at which the sena-
torial candid ates are to be voted for
will be every candidate for the legisla-
ture but few holdover state senator's.
Every one of them will be compelled to
say for himself what he will do if nomi-
mated and elected. He can say he will
abide by the primary choice; he can
say he will stand by the county choice;
ne can say he will vote for Cummis, for
for Allison, no matter what the county
or state may do. But he will be com
PEELED to say something. And the
moment he has said it he will be
embarrassed.
Why should candidates for the legis-
lature be put in this position?
And when they are nominated and
the result of the senatorial primary is
known, then what?
If the candidate for the Legislature
has agreed to abide by the primary
result, and it is unsatisfactory, he viii
be knitted; if he has agreed to abide by
the county choice and there is an ag
gressive minority, he will be knitted
if he has named his own choice, the
fight will certainly go to the polls. And
in practically every district in the
state disaffected republican minority
can, with the democrats, elect member
of the house and senate. The republi
can vote for Porter last year woulC
elect democratic majority in the
legislature.
If Senator Allison's friends are conf
dent of the result Of the primary, why
should not the primary be allowed tt
settle the matter? The primary Law
will preserve party lines better thar
they ever have been preserved in Iowa
1t will come nearer to securing a fai
expression of republican sentiment thai
has ever been had in the state. If tn
friends of the senator are not alarmed
at the prospect, why then not nov
+ openly and definitely agree that tn
fight shall end at the primary pollin
booth, and that it shall be an act of ba
faith on either side to seek revenge i

DOES YOUR CORN PAY?

Hon. A. +. Chamberlain of this city,
superintendent of the state farmers
Institutes, is sending out to the farm
ers of the state a blank which he
terms the Farmers Field Study
for Corn" The blank is sent for a
two-fold purpose. The first is to as
certain whether or not the farmers
are loosing enough from planting poor
seed corn to justify Mr.. Chamberlain
in making the question of good seed
corn special subject at the institutes
held the coming season; the second is
to call the attention of the farmers to
their own fields and get them to real
ize what they are lOosing by planting
seed corn that will not grow, or If 1t
grows at all, has so little vitality that
it does not produce stalk strong and
vigorous enough to bear an ear.
The blank has on it enough ruled
spaces to keep an account of 100 hills.
with space for the number OF stalks in
each hill and the barren stalks. The
directions are to take a row OF 100
hills and count the number Of stalks
in each hill. then the barren stalks.
and when this is completed the farm
ers has before him diagram that he
can readily understand, showing him
just what per cent Of his seed corn
grew we'll enough to bear.
Mr. Chamberlain hopes by this me-
thod to bring to the notice of the
farmers of the state the importance
of good seed corn. and II the farmers
will only cooperate with him by fill
ing out the blanks and returning them
a great good will be accomplished for
the farmer interests of the state.
