Prevent
Headache

We want YOU TO know that
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills pre-
vent as well as relieve head
ache, and that they leave no
bad after-eifects. We assure
you that If taken when you
first discover indications of an
attack, they will drive it away,
and thus nor only save you the
misery and distress, but the
weakening influence of pain
upon your system. Used in
this way the attacks become
less frequent, and eventually
entirely disappear. They re-
lieve pain by strengthening the
nerves and overcoming the
turbulent, excited condition,
which is the cause OF pain.

Chicago, Aug. Z.
CATTLE-1he cattle market closed
up in very good condition last week
and prices were some higher than
during the early days of the week.
We had a moderate run of $4,000 to-
day and there seemed to be a very
good feeling in the trade. Bulk of the
steers on sale were readily bought up
at lully steady prices and in some in
stances, the best grader were shade
higher. There was a very good demand
for all grades of butcher cattle and
prices were generally shade higher
all around, We believe we will have
a moderate run the balance of the
week and for anyone having cattle
that are ready to ship. We believe it

City Council Fails To Provide Pede-
stall For Mahaska.

o. Min
Almost, but not quite, was the con
tract let to SuIliYan Of Creston, Iowa,
for the building of the pedestal of the
new statue of Chief Mahaska. All
voters changed their ayes" to mays"
when they comprehended the meaning
of the motion which they were decid-
ing, and just in time, before the may
or had announced the result of the
roll call, the councilmen, one by one,
Topped over and the motion was lost.
The trouble all came from the effort
to dispose of the contract for the build
ing of the pedestal The bids have
given the fathers no little worry and
gladly would they have tabled the
whole thing had they not already Civ
en- their promise of putting up a suit
able pedestal if Mr.. Edmundson would
donate the statue, which is now COM
plete and ready to be shipped from
Paris. One councilman was wild
enough in his despair to express the
wish that the ship would sink and
bury the cause of their troubles in
the bottom of the Atlantic.
Three contractors presented bids:
j. e. Easter, $1,000; F. w. Mccall, ST.,
020, and Sullivan of Creston, Iowa.
presented number of bids ranging
from $1,000 to $1,000, according to the
grade of granite employed in its can
struction, but the bid corresponding
with those of the local contractors
was s1,100.
The wish of the majority was eyi
IDENTIFY that the contract should be
given to F. W. Mccall and a motion
with that idea in view was made tc
award the contract to the lowest bid
der, and it was not until the unani
nous vote had been cast that it was
noticed that no restriction had been
included in the motion which would
exclude the $1,000 bid of the Crestor
contractor. Discouraged by their fail
ure just at the time when they believ
ed the matter to be settled, the gentle
men finally rejected all bids and in
structed the clerk to advertise fol
new bids to comply with the speci
fications and calling for dark Berry
granite to be used in the construction
The building OF the pedestal will re
quire from four to six months so that
it is evident the unwilling of the
statue will be postponed from the
date which had been announced fol
next month.
