ABANDON TROLLEY PROJECT.
Time Is Not Ripe for Sioux City
Shirt Lake Line.

Cherokee, July 15.-Those who have
been interested in the promotion of a
trolley line from Sioux City to Spirit
Lake via Cherokee and other northwest
Iowa cities have abandoned the project
for the present at least. Expert en-
gineers have declared the scheme in
feasible now and for a good many
years to come, because the country
along the route is not thickly enough
populated.
A few weeks ago. when the trolley
discussion was on, number OF Chero-
kee men held meeting and decided
to have an expert engineer come here
to investigate the matter. A fund was
raised for this purpose.
A Mr.. Strauss member OF one Of the
best firms in the country, was secured
for this purpose. He was here the first
of the week, and was not long In de-
termining that the plan was not feasi-
BILE. He estimated that the road would
cost in the neighborlood of $3,0Q0,OOo,
and that the project could not be
financed. 1t was the opinion of Mr..
Strauss that sometime the road will be
built, but at present the population
along the route is not nearly dense
enough. If Cherokee were city of 30
900 or 10000 population and there were
a few other large towns along the
route the plan would be feasible.

Iowa City, July 15.--The tuberculosis
hospital on the interurban for the
treatment of cases of the incipient sort
Is crowded to it's utmost capacity sc
that in some cases the patients are
obliged to double up on the room
question. At present the highest num-
Der of patients in the history of the in
stitution is being treated there, the
grand total reaching the figure OF 40.
AS Is known there are but 40 rooms
two patients using the same room but
as the rooms are used merely for
dressing purposes and not for sleeping,
the inconvenience is slight. However,
the incapaoity of the structure Is read
lily seen. Furthermore the number OF
applicants is increasing SO rapidly that
an extension will eitheu follow or
greater numbers will necessarily be
turned away.
The treatment at the hospital, a.
Is also we'll known, Is not of the med
icated variety but rather OF the COM
mon sense method of the times. The
patients take little or no medicine but
give nature every possible opportunity
to throw off the malady that Cypress
es them by taking all the fresh air,
sound rest and excellent nourishment
possible.
One remarkable fact is that at
present there are two patients of ten
der age who are undergoing treat
ment for pulmonary tuberculosis. The
younger OF the two is a girl aged II
while the other is fourteen. Their
cases are regarded as somewhat UNI
usual altho pulmonary tuberculosis
among children is by no means rare.

Louisa county which reached the Of
fee Of Auditor Carroll yesterday. con,-
pleted the returns on the assessment
valuations of the state and today the
force are busily securing the complete
totals which will go before the ex-
ecutive council for review later in the
week. The showing over the real es-
tate values Of 1906, the last biennial
assessment Of real estate, shows that
the state of Iowa Is enjoying general
prosperity. In both land values and in
the valuation placed ON improvements
the showing shows a remarkable in
crease.
The figures for the present biennial
period as compiled today show the
following:
Town lots ................ A71,354,972

The increase in real estate values is
we'll distributed. No mushroom growth
in any locality is shown, altho the in
crease in valuations are much larger
in Polk and Scott counties than in any
other of the ninety-nine of the state.
1t is even quite likely as the result of
the increased valuation that the tax for
state purposes will be decreased next
year as the result of the wonderful in
creased showing which has been made.
The real estate of Iowa, especially the
farm lands, have shown a remarkable
increase, nearly 100000 within the
last two years.
While the new buildings are indica-
tive of the general prosperity. the
growth in farm values is looked upon
as gradual, steady and satisfactory
charging of the assets of Iowa as
state and weathervane as TO the
wealth of its individuals.

CHANGE in FOOD
WORKS WONDERS IN HEALTH.

1t is worth knowing that change in food
can cure dyspepsia II deem it my duty let
YOU know how Grape Nuts food has cured me
Of indigestion.
Il had been troubled with 1t for years until
last year my doctor recommended Grape Nuts
food to be used every morning. l followed in
structions and now 1 am entirely well.
The whole family like Grape-Nuts: we use
four packages week You welcome to use
this testimonial you ft.''
The reason this lady was helped by the use of
Grape-Nuts food. is that II is predigested by
natural processes and therefore does not tax the
stomach as the food she had been using; il also
contains the elements required for building up
the nervous system. IF that part OF the human
body is in perfect working order. there can be
no dyspepsia. for nervous energy represents the
steam that drives the engine
When tn. nervous system is run down. the
machinery of the body works badly. Grape Nuts
food can be used by small children well as
adults. 1t is perfectly cooked and ready for
instant use
