A gasoline launch containing Mr..
and Mrs. w. H. Powell, w. F. Powell,
Mrs. Bessie Stevens and little daugh-

across the Des Moines river at Ottum-

The launch was found mile down

The party had been on the river all
the evening and we're returning to the
boathouse when the engine became
exhausted and the swift current
headed the boat through a cutoff
emptying Just above the dam.
The terrorized screams OF the wo-
men and the cries for help were heard
for blocks and rescuing boats were
put out from the clubhouse. Before

IGNORANT CITY BOY
HAVE LEARNED MUCH
FROM COUNTRY COUSIN.
At Least One Trick With Horses That
He Was Not Familiar With
1. No Problem for Man
Who Knew.

A city boy. He was playing in the
street when the rubber ball he was
tossing slipped from his hands and
landed just back of the off hind foot
of big gray horse attached to a
truck and standing patiently by the
curb awaiting further orders.
The boy made several furtive
reaches to recover the ball, but as
actual possession involved close prox-
unity to that massive leg and iron
shod hoof he hesitated. A rapid
search of surrounding territory re-
suited in the finding of piece of stick
about six inches long.
Its length was disproportionate to
the danger zone, but the boys sense
of peril decreased as his anxiety grew
at the possible loss of his plaything.
He made quick jab with the stick,
but succeeded only in striking the ami
mails hook, causing it to prance in
dignantly
A second attempt and the horses
shoe was struck. The big gray start

with innate cussedness, backed up
again and in SO doing placed his hoof
on the ball and pinned it to the
ground.
Frightened by his close call from in
jury and grieving for the loss of his
plaything the boy looked around I'M
certain whether to laugh or cry. Just
at that juncture tall, broad Shout
dered man with whiskers of the hay
seed variety turned the corner.
He saw the boys final attempt to
recover the ball and his narrow es-
cape from injury. Two strides and he
was beside his victim.
Amt you got no sense?" he de-
manded. want to get run over or
have your brains kicked out?"
In few sentences the boy ex-
planned the situation and pointed to
the ball. The big man patted the
horse on the flank, spoke few sooth
ing words to the animal and ran his
hand deity and pettingly down the
leg until he reached the hook.
Hist, boy, hist" he commanded
and the animal, accusteWeial, ,u 10 J {bbse
diently lifted it's leg.
With his free hand the, big mar
extracted the ball from its restins
place and tossed it to the lad, who un
gratefully scampered away without
waiting to thank his benefactor.
Beats thunder how these city kids
don't know nothin' about horses!'
said the big man disgustedly as he
busted off his hands and resumed hi;

The affairs of the defunot Property
Mutual Insurance association were set

suit Holding that $7,1s3 was rea-

of the bankrupt association, Judge
Charles e. Ransier held that motion
In resistance should go as naught and
the claims be allowed. The motion
was presented and signed by several
policyholders Of the association, claim
ing the charges of Receiver Manhard
and Attorneys Gates & Liffring and
Mullan & Pickett were exorbitant.
Judge Ransier held that the fees
should be paid as follows: E. E..
Manhard, receiver, $4,000; Gates &
Liffring, attorneys, $2,27S; Mullan &
Pickett, attorneys, $2,205. All par
ties served a little over year In
closing up the affairs. The fee of-the
receiver includes Office rent, steno-
graphic work and other incidental ex-
penses and the fees of attorneys for
bringing upwards of 300 suits against
policyholders to collect assessments,
few of which reached the stage of a
trial and none were actually tried in
open court.
Receiver Manhard was appointed to
the Office of receiver in May, 1906
There were upward Of 1900 policyhold
ers in the association for various
amounts. An assessment was levied
according to the age and amount OF
policies held, which was realized or

The Limit Of Life.

The most eminent medical scientists
are unanimous in the conclusion that
the generally accepted limitation of
human life is many years below the
attainment possible with the advanced
knowledge of which the race is now
possessed. The critical period, that
determines its duration, seems to be
between so and 60; the proper care of
the body during this decade cannot be
too strongly urged; carelessness then
being fatal to longevity. Nature
best helper after so is Electric Bitters,

Eve never repent of eating too little. y
was one of the ten rules of life of
Thomas Jefferson, president Of the
United States, and the rule applies to
everyone without exception during this
hot weather, because it is hard for
food, even in small quantities, to be
digested when the blood is at high
temperature. At this season we should
eat sparingly and properly. We should
also help the stomach as much as pos
sible by the use Of little Kodol For
Indigestion and Dyspepsia, which will
rest the stomach by digesting the food
itself. Sold by Edward 7. Lpmas.
