enactment of two cent railroad fare
law in Iowa was an unjust measure
to the railroads. But let us take that
ton. 1t was long ago adjudicated and
is thoroughly understood that the rail
roads exercise a governmental func-
ton; that they are under the control
of the people subject only to the linn
itation that no confiscatory legisla-
ton should be enacted. Could any
thing be more unfair than that one class
of citizens, the one most needy and
who should be most favored, have been
required to pay so per cent more for
their transportation than the more
favored brothers and sisters? Now [
think that in all human probability the
two cent railroad law, as far as Iowa
is concerned, is upon the statute books
to remain, but in case this legal fare
should be found to be inadequate there
is no just reason why it should not
be increased to two and one-haf cents,
or even three cents, predicated, how
ever, upon the thought that all classes
of patrons should be treated exactly
alike. What could be more repugnant
to you, my young friends, than going to
the postoffice to buy a stamp, you
should be required to pay two cents,
and at the same time some less for
tunate person should be required to
pay three cents. 1t seems to me this
is an exactly parallel case"

Father OF Lisbon Man Asks
Court to Prevent Removal of
Body From Cemetery
WIDOW MUST DEFEND SUIT
Relatives of Late R. o. Sailor, Who
Died in July, Litisate Over Where
the Body Shall Finally Rest-Widow
Desires to Remove Remains to An
other Cemetery, Father Opposes.
Special to Times Republican.

Mt Vernon, Dec 3-At Lisbon. in
this county, there is family quarrel
over the place of burial of a member
of the family who died in July of 1908.
The principals are the father and the
widow of the deceased.
Henry Sailor has commenced an ac-
ton against Rosy Sailor and states in
his petition that he is the father Of
one, r. O. Sailor, who died on or
about July s. 1908, at Cedar Rapids
and the defendant is the surviving
widow of the deceased. That at the
time r. 0. Sailor died his widow asked
and received permission from this
plaintiff to have the privilege of bury
ing the deceased on the family lot Of
the plaintiff in the cemetery at Lis
bon, and the same was granted to her
upon the express understanding, agree
ment and condition that he should not
be removed therefrom after his burial
there, and for the purpose of securing
his interment there, defendant agreed
not to remove him therefrom, after his
interment.
Notwithstanding that the plaintiff
agreed not to remove the said body If
the plaintiff would furnish room for the
grave on his lot, the defendant now
threatens to, and will unless restrained
from so doing, remove the body from
the family burying lot, in direct viola
ton of the terms and conditions on
which she was permitted to bury it
there.
That to permit the plaintiff to re-
move the said body as she now threat
ems will deprive the plaintiff of his
possession thereof, and cause him
great grief and mental anguish as
defendant we'll knew that the plaintiff
wished to have his boy buried with
the rest of his family on the said lot,
and if once buried there will and would
cause him great grief and distress of
mind, to have the body removed there
from.
The father prays that a temporary
writ of injunction issue. restraining
the defendant by herself, her agents
or employees, or any one for her. from
removing or attempting to remove the
body of r. O. Sailor from the family
lot, or in any manner interfering with
the said body, and that upon final
hearing the said injunction be made
and the defendant taxed for
the costs of this action

The feeling of languor, the dull headache, the
sensation Of fulness, pains and tenderness in the
region of the stomach, fatulence, belchng and
vomiting, the thousand and one symptoms OF
Indigestion or other stomach trouble, OF which
most of us know more or less unfit both body and
mind for hard work or continuous application.
You wouldn tsuffer like that if you knew GER
tain remedy, would you? Yetsuch remedy exists
Kodol quickly relieves all these symptoms, and
by giving the stomach entire rest, speedily cures
the disease ITSELF
Irregular hours mild dissipation, excessive use
of tobacco, hasty eating or overlndulgence in a
favorite dish, frequently produce as unpleasant,
though not lasting results as the most serious Of
chronic cases.
If these temporary sufferers realized that Kodol
relief, how many would neglect TO keep it con-
stantly in the house.
You can go about your business and disregard
pain in any other part of the body. But stomach
trouble prostrates. The stomach supplies the en-
tire system. If it fails to perform its task, these
i ioGd are cut 0-ano We cannon AvS S'''0u'
We know all this, but haven't we fallen into the
error of assuming that, once swallowed, food has
accomplished the purpose for which 1t was eaten
1t hasn't, by any means. Until IL Is properly
digested, the system cannot assimilate 1T.
It remains in the stomach until 1T decomposes,
and might far better, not have been eaten at all.
Kodol digests this food without aid from the
stomach and dgests 1t as well as the. stomach
itself could do the work.
Through its aid, the food you have eaten is
reduced to a form in which the system can assim-
Hate it and the body is built up, while the tired
