Non.DeIivery of Milk on Sun
days Works Great Hardship
to Infants
HUMANE SOCIETY RESPONSIBLE
II Had Not Considered This Phase In
Its Mason City Crusade - Is Ready
Now to Withdraw From Its Position
In tho matter - Physicians Sound
Alarm.
Special to T,mes-repuplican.

Mason City, Dec. Now that the
doctors of the city have united In con-
deinning as harmful to the babies, the
move of the milkmen to stop Sunday
deliveries, the Humane society Is re-
ceding from its position In favor OF
such meve. Last Friday 1t was an
nounced that there would be no more
Sunday milk deliveries in the city, The
physicians joined Saturday In raising
a cry against such u procedure and
everyone of them stated that 1t would
work terrible hardship for the bab-
les Of the city who are bottle fed.
Babies fed from the bottle, they say,
must have fresh milk every day, and
tnat if such milk is not daily secured
for them, their health will suffer. One
doctor went so far as to predict that
the drug store would at once enjoy an
unusual demand for paregoric.
The no-Sunday milk delivery plan
was tried yesterday, for the first time.
Only one dairyman In town made his
usual rounds, and he would serve none
but his regular customers. Nearly ev-
ery' housewife secured her milk and
cream for Sunday on a special Satur-
day afternoon delivery by the milk
man, and got Saturday mornings or
Friday evenings milk. In either case,
it was unfit for the baby by Sunday
noon, and all the bottle fed babies
went hungry after that time. Many
mothers use patent infant foods to mix
with the cows milk. II the mixture
was made Saturday night it was dis
tinctly unpalatable by Sunday noon.
and If it was not made then, the milk
was SO separated into blue milk (near-
-ly all water) and heavy cream that 1t
could not be mixed.
The move was originated by the HUI
name society, for the sake of giving
both the men and horses employed by
the various dairies a chance for
Sabbath day rest. The thought OF
llarming the little babies of the city
was not even thought of, and that
phase of the situation is likely to count
more than all else. 1t Is understood
that the members of the Humane So
ciety are ready to Withdraw from Their
position in the matter, and it is likely
that by next Sunday. the dairymen Will
be making their usual Sabbath morn
ing rounds. The sentiment over town
is Of course all in favor of giving the
babies their daily portion OF fresh

At a meeting held by the, members

Ill, to become the pastor of the Wells

he has not stated whether or not he

in this locality. For several years he

Iowa Falls, Dec. THE following
article will appear in the Iowa Falls
Sentinel, published today, and indicates
that Walter l.. Weaver. under indict-
ment in this county, on two counts,
for uttering forged instrument, will
return home and stand trial for his
misdeeds:
THE Sentinel editor has just read .
letter. from Walter l.. Weaver, under
date of Nov. "a, in which he says he
will come home soon and take his pun
ishment. thus saving the county q
needless expense Of $500 in case Sher-
If Walsh should go to the Puget
Sound country and place Weaver in
custody under the usual process OF
law We expect Weaver will be here
and stand trial at the january term
of the district court. The young mans
father has done all in his power tt
have his boy come home and take his
medicine and we believe has succeed
ed. He is not protecting the young
man in any manner but wants Walter
to come home and receive whatever
punishment he deserves and then be a
free man, rather than be a fugitive
from justice the rest of his life. Judg-
ing from the young mans letter, he
keenly feels his mistake and appears
only too glad to come back home and
take the punishment 1e deserves. 1t
Is stated an effort will. be ms'e o show
that he was not in his right mind
when he forged the papers. In his let
ter to his father, young Weaver states
that unless this matter can be settled
soon, he will become an insane man."
1t is learned that Weaver under the
name OF w. l.. Walters, enlisted in the
United States navy at a navy yard
near San Francisco last spring and
has been in the service recently on the
steamship st. Louis. having been
transferred to this boat from the one
to which he was originally assigned
when he entered the navy. This boat
is now at Bremerton, the government
navy yard in Puget Sound. undergoing
repairs. 1t is stated the boat has SAIL
ing orders and that an effort Will be
made by Congressman Birdsall, at
Washington, to induce the navy de-
partment to release Weaver so he can
return home and stand trial. In the
meantime, requisition papers are be-
ing prepared for his arrest and return
in the usual manner. 1t is said that
frequent letters from Weaver to his
wife at Grinnell. addressed in his own
handwriting, gave the officers clue
to the young mans whereabouts and
that the clue when followed up re-
vealed the young mans identity to the
satisfaction of the officers of the law.
V. A. Biggs, of this city, on whom
Weaver tried to unlNld the bogus loan
papers, has been subpoenaed as a wit
ness in the case for the January term
of court.

Altho Indigestion and Dyspepsia are

There is no reason why people should
not eat anything they desire-if they
win only chew 1t carefully and thor
oughly. Many actually starve them
selves into sickness thru fear OF eating
every good Hooking, good smelling and

Dieting cannot cure Dyspepsia. II we

We can cure Dyspepsia. We are so
