extra amounts were needed to first get a
requisition approved by the proper author
tiles. DR.. Cornell replied to this resolu-
ton and attempted TO show the foolish
ness Of 1t by explaining that a contagious
disease patient could not be detained in
the middle of the night until the next day
when the mayor and Comptroller could be
found to sign a requisition for a hack to
take the patient to the hospital. Despite
this, the resolution was adopted.
In the course OF his talk. DR.. Davis
quoted the charter to the effect that in
the event Of an epidemic when additional
funds are needed the commissioner Of
health shall explain the circumstances to
the council when that body shall. by or
dinance. appropriate more money. DR..
Connell, therefore, drew up a formal writ
ten statement to the effect that his fund
was exhausted and that an epidemic exists
and that therefore more money must be
appropriated. No action was taken on this
aside from referring II to the finance COM

The council voted an allowance OF $3.50
yearly to the Independent Telephone COM
pany.
When the various officers In the city hall
were connected with the city lines Of the
two telephone companies through ex-
changes in the city hall, a contract was
| entered into between the city and the tele-
phone companies to maintain the service
at a certain figure, amounting practically
to what had previously been paid for the
telephones of the one company installed in
but a part Of the offices. After the service
was installed the companies found that the
exchanges in the city building required the
services of two operators, instead OF one,
as they had figured when the contract with
the city was made. Despite the contract,
Councilman Sheldon succeeded last night
in getting through his extra appropriation,
which amounts to so a month, dating from
October 1, for the hire of a second telephone
operator. All the democrats voted for 1t
with the exception Of Councilman Elsasser,
who voted with Councilman Zimman
against It.
Councilman Zimman won out last night
in his fight for the repaving OF Fifteenth
street between Howard and Davenport. At
the last session his opponents tried to table
the ordinance. but Mr.. Zimman declared
that OF all OF the streets that should be
, repaved the business streets should take

I'VE ought to say to Mr.. Carnegie, we
don't want any more libraries. We want to
stop the $50. 900 deaths a year in the United
States. Found as many sanitariums as you
have libraries, Mr., Carnegie, and you Will
do some good. People got more out OF their
books, anyhow when they bought them
themselves than since they take them for
a few days from the public libraries The
books meant more to them"
DR.. Willard Langfeld. who thus appealed
to the lronmaster, was the principal speaker
at the Tuesday evening meeting at Creigh-
ton institute, his appeal coming at the
close of a comprehensive exposition Of
many OF the problems which confront ply
sicians and the public with respect to tuber-
culosis. He was followed briefly by DIR.

which life insurance inspection and losses
have brought out. Both speakers were
heard by a large audience.
DR.. Langfield laid stress upon the ad-
vantages OF the dispensary system in COM
batting the plague and in this connection
discussed the economic problems involved.
1T is a disease of poor people," said he.
And the reasons are not far to seek. The
poor bear the heaviest burden always. They
lack proper food and their children are
improperly fed. often the hunger of these
is appeased by filling and not nourishing
things. The poor live in small houses, are
subject to overcrowding, must take in
roomers, have large families and their
quarters are insufficiently or disproportlon-
ately heated. Then too, their clothing is
not adequate and they are subject to hard

MCoOK, Neb., Oct. H-(speciaI ToIe-
gram. )-Nebraska's popular young gov
ernor. George Lawson Sheldon, received a
rousing reception and a splendid, enthusI-
astic hearing here yesterday and last night.
Arriving In the city on the noon train, he
was received at the Burlington station
by the members of ]. X. Barnes post,
Grand Army of the Republic, the McCook
High school band of forty pieces and sew
eral hundred citizens. and after a hearty
greeting. during which the governor shook
hands with the assembled veterans and
9th ers. he was escorted to his hotel.
1t was a spontaneous greeting, in which
politics was not a prominent feature. In
the evening In the open air was assembled
an overlooking audience to greet the pres
ent and next governor. This was far and
away the greatest gathering of the cam
paign, in which the governor aroused the
~liveliest interest and enthusiasm as he
stated the accomplished facts of the re-
publican state administration during the
last two years, urging the legislation and
the manner of executing the laws which
he claimed were in the interest OF the
people as the reason why the voters Of
Nebraska should retain in power the re-
publican party,
The record, he claimed, is a proud one,
a clean one, a fair one, such as should
appeal to all thoughtful and fair men,
a record in which the party and the ad-
ministration take pride. over and against
this was set forth fairly the democratic
promises Of the past, of the present and
for the future. After delivering an eff
fective talk for the republican candidates
on the legislative ticket, John c. Cam
mill for state senator from the Twenty
ninth district, and Frank Moore, nominee
for representative in the SiXty-fifth dis
trict, the governor made an eloquent plea
for the return Of G.. w. Norris to the ma
tional congress-, referring In strong words
to his record as a congressman, his expe-
rience and ability to continue that service
with increasing power. In contrast with
the deeds of the present congressman
were given the record of Mr.. Ashton. the
democratic nominee. in the last legisla-
ture, wherein he is on record as against
many Of the popular measures now on
the statute books of Nebraska. This
record of Mr.. Ashton. the speaker claimed,
certainly did not entitle him to the votes
nor to the confidence of the people of the
Fifth congressional district, and the peo-
pie are to rule out here in the Fifth dis,
presentment of the republican cause and
claims in a brief reference to the present
national administration and to the claims
of the party for continuation in power

increased vote for the republican cause

Stomach Gases
and Torpid Livers
Give Way Before the Peculiar
Purifying Power of Stuart's
Charcoal Lozenges.
A Trial package sent Free.

The foul gases of the stomach and the
torpid action Of the liver are easy victims
for charcoal to overcome.
This great natural cleaner and absorb
ent will most certainly be relished by a
system afflicted with gaseous or slug
gish tendencies.
Charcoal has long been known as a great
absorbent of gas. A painful OF charcoal
will positively purify a room filled with
foul doors and decay. It's absorbing ratio
is one hundred times greater than its own
volume.
The ancients gave charcoal for many
human ills successfully. The North
American Indians used 1t for snake bite,
poison from eating wild herbs and cured
what the called stomach bad medicine"
with II.
Willow charcoal seems to be the best
product for human use, and no doubt the
peculiar curative property OF the willow
is represented in a chemical quality in
its charcoal.
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges are pure
willow and sweet honey blended by ire
mendous power and compression into a
very p~alatable Iozenge. Two or three loz-
enges eaten after meals will prevent the
process Of digestion from producing nox-
ious gases. They will vivify a lazy liver
and aid every organ which Is most likely
to be overcome through its contact with
impurities.
They cleanse the stomach and intes-
tines. bring purity and sweetness out of
fermentation and decay n aid diges-
ton by allaying gas. They will aid you
and your stomach The beneficial effects
are made evident after each meal when
you use charcoal as Stuart prepares It,
To allay gas at night they are excellent
and one arises in the morning without
that terrible nauseating bad breath which
destroys appetite and renders one mis-
cradle.
