HIGH TEACHERS IDEALS
Supt. Clifford Of Council Bluffs In
spires Teachers to Work Work
for the Children.

Supt. Clifford of the Council Bluffs
schools was the star at the late con-
vention of teachers. He is evidently
from his talks thoroughly in earnest in
the cause of education. He calls for
devoted time and labor on behalf Of
the right kind of teachers night and
day. and even Sunday. for he holds
their time belongs to the district
every hour for seven days in the week.
He said. work. save. study. all the
time; plan to take added education,
a degree at university. special
studies in q speciality. look forward
foreign travel as a means of gain
ing knowledge to communicate to the
children. He has no patience with
the teacher who cannot govern her
school, for government is easy for the
teacher who is full of enthusiasm and
who keep up the interest in school
work. He told them not to look with
envy on the city teachers for their lot
was not happy one. He does not
believe in striking a child or Offering
it any indignity. If Supt. Clifford is
as good in practice as he is in theory
and high ideals. he ought to be maxi
ing Council Bluffs great superin-
tendent.

Destroyed on Saturday

On Saturday night. while the fam
lily was attending party at the home
of neighbor, the residence of VIM.
Gehring jr.. one mile north of the six
mile house in Goodrich township was
completely destroyed by fire. Moth
ing was known of the fire until the
house was demolished. Help arrived
in time however to prevent the de-
struction of the barns and their out
buildings except the tool shed. The
family left the house before nine
O'Clock and friends passing as late as
eleven O'Clock saw no sign of fire.
The loss is a heavy one for Mr..
Gehring as all household goods. furni-
ture. clothing. etc. were destroyed.
No cause can be assigned for the mys-
FERROUS fire and there is not a little
talk that incendiarism was to blame.

CALLED TO HER REST
Miss Rose Murdoch Dies at Denison
of Consumption March 1o

mr. and Mrs. Frank Murdoch of
Coon Grove have been called upon to
lay in the grave the mortal remains
of their daughter. Alice. who died
of consumption in the hospital at Den
ison on Thursday March 10. She was
nineteen years old almost to day at
the time of her death. having been
born in this county March 10. 1889.
The grandparents of this young lady
were Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. Murdoch and
Mr.. and Mrs. A. j.. Bear, two we'll
known families in south Denison
township for thirty years. Alice was
q bright girl. attended the Coon
Grove school and would have made q
most worthy woman if she had not
become afflicted with consumption
With her the disease ran its full course.
AS the home was small and there
were seven children. friends came
forward and procured her admission
to the hospital at Denison. where her
environments would be sanitary and
she could have good nursing. The
end came as above stated and the fun
eral was held at the Baptist church of
which she was a member. on last Fri
day at two p m. Rev. LaReau
preached touching sermon and there
were beautiful flowers and appropri-
ate music. An added pitiable Incl
dent of the occasion was the fact that
the mother was held home in quaran-
tine with some of the small children
for scarlet fever. The Woodmen and
neighbors showed sympathy with the
family in this affection.
1t is the wish Of Mr.. Murdoch and
wife that their thanks be expressed
to all who showed sympathy and help
during the sickness of their daughter.
The poor girl has gone to where
there is no more sickness and this is
a comfort to all. The parents should
not be forgotten in their affection.

Mr.. Martin McNertney of Iowa
township was a Denison caller to-
day. His business in Denison was to
announce himself candidate for the
republican nomination for sheriff.
His announcement is found in
another part OF this paper and he has
secured blank petitions and has for
mally entered the race. Mr.. Nc
Nertney is prominent farmer of
Iowa township. He is we'll known
and we'll liked. He has been a re-
publican for many years and his
politics are so we'll known that the
usual libel about the Irish republican.
that he changed for the sake of office,
is already disproved. The democratic
situation for sheriff is very mixed.
Thos. Meehan wants another term and
his candidacy is opposed by Hank
Cummings and Pete Eggers. 1t is
rumored that there will be still other
democratic candidates in the field.
The Review is glad to note the
candidates. of republicans. 1t shows
that hope is not dead. We believe
there is room for successful candi-
dacies against Mike Collins and Frank
Faul and the other veteran office
holders. With Lon Randall and
Martin McNertney in the field for
sheriff the republicans certainly have
two good choices offered them.

Frances J. Heney, one Of San
Fransisco's graft prosecutors was
shot in the court room last Friday
by Morris Haas, an exconvict who
had been dismissed from the jury
on account of Heney's producing
a photo of Haas taken in convict's
clothes and with shaved head.
Haas was confined in the county
Jail several miles from the center
of the city, where he committed
suicide Saturday night. Henry
will probably recover. The bullet
which lodged in the muscles Of the
throat was located by means of a
series of X-ray photographs. It
is hoped that his vocal powers will
be unimpaired by the course Of the
bullet. Had the shooting of
Henry proved fatal-san Fransis-
co would have lost one of its
greatest prosecutors of the bribary
cases.

NOW IS BEST
TIME TO TAKE

A we'll known authority on
Rheumatism gives the following
valuable, though simple and harm
less, prescription, which any one
can easily prepare at home:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one.
half ounce; Compound Kargon, one
ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsara-
rilla, three ounces.
Mix by shaking we'll in a bottle,
and take a t%easpoonful after each
meal and at bedtime.
He states that the ingredients
can be obtained from any good
prescription pharmacy at small
cost, and, being of vegetable ex-
traction. are harmless to take.
This pleasant mixture, if taken
regularly for a few days, is said to
overcome almost any case of
Rheumatism. The pain and swill-
ing, if any. diminishes with each
dose, until permanent results is
obtained, and without injuring the
stomach. While there are many
so-called Rheumatism remedies,
patent medicines, etc, some Of
which do relief, few really give
permanent results, and the above
will, no doubt, begreatlyappreciat-
ed by many sufferers here at this
time.

neighborhood elicits the informa-
ton that these drugs are harmless

Wonders repeat themselves in the
financial world as well as in less con
sentative fields, it seems. The transac-
tions Of Morse, the ice trust king, are
a case in point. Not long ago the in
surance investigation turned the
searchlight upon the seamy side OF
life insurance, and what had been
mere surmise before was shown to be
a fact. The so called business" was
Q system of audacious and reckless ex-
p%loitation. But life insurance as con-
Quoted when the exposure came was
comparatively a new thing. It might
be believed that the methods employed
in it were unique; that the evils ex-
posed were peculiar and confined to
that one field Of financial activity.
Yet the Morse revelations, following
upon others of similar nature, indi-
cate that the insurance manipulators
may have had coaching from old line
fnanciers. They surely found imita-
eors in recklessness and audacity.
!. Not the least of the wonders in the
career Of the ice trust was the ease
with which supposedly clever business
men were "roped In" They were
handed profits" as they supposed,
and readily put money in to Sc
