applause after the number, though 1t

club has ever done.
Mrs. Edmund 6, Shank was the So

personality and was, as always, heart

splendid advantage.

ance. "a
AS an encore, she played dainty lit

winds among the trees. Her technique
in this was most beautifully shown.
The club was we'll prepared and sang
with evident enjoyment.

That our American forests abound In
plants which possess the most valuable
medicinal virtues is abundantly attested
by scores Of the most eminent medical
writers and teachers. Even the untu-
tored Indians had discovered the useful
ness of many native plants before the
advent Of the white race. This informa-
tion, impaired freely to the whites, led
the latter to continue investigations until
to-day we have rich assortment of most
valuable American medicinal roots.

Excursion Ratessfor Iowa
Geo. LEFFINGwELL Jr. Pre-

Special reduced excursion rates
are to be given Iowa people for
their State Fair and Exposition the
last week of August, As the result
of conference between represent
tstiyes of the railroads in Chicago
and officials of the Iowa depart
ment of Agriculture and represent
tatives of Iowa commercial bodies,
the railroads voted unanim ously to
grant to the Iowa people the, old
excursion rate of former years of
three cents a mile for the round
trip to the State Fair. This special
rate applies in all cases where the
ordinary rate is seventy-five cents
for the round trip, that being fixed
az minimum, SO the new rate
will be of especial value to all Iowa
people except in small zone about
Des Moines. The railroads an
nounced their readiness to cooper
ate in every way in securing large
attendance at the Fair, thus aiding
and encouraging Iowa agricultural
and industrial interests.

Art of Reaaina Letters

Nowhere is the ingenuity of the
present age more apparent than in
the begging letters received bv rich
men,, said private secretary. 81 have
been reading letters of that kind bv
the hundred for the last is years. For
merly all begging letters sounded
alike. So stereotyped We're thew that
they might have been copied bodily
from ready letter writer. Now the
writer's display originality. They may
want the same old thing that their
predecessors wanted, but they ask for
1t In different way People in need
have acquired the art of expressing
themselves in dramatic way. That
is to their advantage. 1t NAV be IN
just, but usually the letter that hits a
rich man hardest brings the most ia
Vorable reply, The writer NAV not
really need assistance nearly SO badly
as some timid suppliant who clings
to trlte phrases, but he gets the relief
asked for every time"

For week ending July 81, 1905.

For week ending July 81, 1905.
Des Moines, Iowa.
The average daily temperature
was about normal; the daily de-
partures ranging from plus one
degree in the eastern to minus one
degree in the western part of the
stute. The rainfall was generally
below the normal, and the sun
shine was excessive. The weather
was generally fair, but light and
widely scattered showers occurred
over the larger part of the state
from Tuesday to Sunday. Heavy
rains fell Sunday in the central
and north central districts, and es-
pecially in the upper Des Moines
river valley, as shown by the fol-
lowing telegraphic reports, viz:
Boone 1856 inches; Fort Dodge 3.05
and Estherville 21O inches.
The bulk of an exceptionally
large crop of hay has been secured
in good condition. The email
grain harvest has been vigorously
pushed, and is now nearing com
pletion in southern districts.
Threshing returns indicate light
yield and fair quality of oats,-the
yield ranging from 10 to % bushels
yer acre. Winter wheat and barley
show good quality and average
from 20 to 80 bushels per acre. Con-
ditions have been favorable for
corn, but rain will be needed soon
over a large part of the state if the
rapid growth of the past three
weeks ia maintained. Potatoes and
pastures are still in good condition.
