Great Alteration Sale OF Pianos.

Hundreds of fine new pianos, form
ing part Of Lyon 4 Healy's magnif-
cent stock, have got to be removed
from the third floor of their building
at the corner of Wabash Avenue and
Adams Street, Chicago, because of put
ting in new flooring. In order to dispose
of the pianos with greater facility,
extraordinarily low prices have been
affixed. These figures are phenomenally
low. Lyon & Healy are making a
determined effort to close out this
great stock of instruments within the
next few weeks 80 that the carpenters
may pursue their work unhampered,
and the prices have been reduced with
this object in view. Send for copy
of list of bargains. If you do not wish
to pay all cash for a piano you can
arrange for monthly payments. O,
make visit of inspection some day
soon.
Lyon & IIealy exhibit the largest
and most varied stock of pianos in the
world-over 1000 Instruments.

WORK ON TUBERCULOSIS GOES
ON. IOWA'S WINNING CAMPAIGN
FORCES AT WORK.
Press Bureau Board of Control of
State Institutions Department
on tuberculosis.

Des Moines, August 15-In spite of
throughout the state the work on
tuberculosis goes on with increased
vigor and it is apparent that Iowa is
tubercle bacillus. In many quarters
the strength of the enemy is showing
weakness, and some Of the strong
holds behind which he has intrenched
himself have been taken already, others
are in a state of siege. Mighty forces
are at work and from every quarter of
the state achievements are appearing
which are heralds of ultimate victory.
In very real sense it is a demon
straton Of the power of mind over
matter. 1t is contest between in
tellactual forces and material con-
ditions which destroy human life. 1t
is the power of knowledge over ignor-
ance, superstition and fitch. 1t is So
cial reform which has as its motive the
abolition of unsanitary, unhygienic
living and the substitution of sanitation
and hygiene.
And every where there is manifested
most remarkable interest. Teachers
Institutes have called for lectures and
literature to such an extent as to be
wholly impossible to respond to but
limited number Of invitations.
Chauta uquas, always educational, have
made special endeavor to bring to the
attention of vast audiences information
regarding tuberculosis and methods Of
combat against it. A new spirit seems
to have seized these great educational
gatherings. 1t is the spirit which may
be said to be the most potent factor in
the elevation of any peOple-the spirit
of knowledge regarding public health
and human happiness. So urgent has
the appeal become that lyceum bureaus,
platform managers and lecture COM
mitteemen are asking for skilled men
to discuss subjects relating to the
public health.
The newspaper press is perhaps the
most potent factor in this educational
propaganda. Every where throughout
the state not only have the papers
published the monthly letter from this
department but editors have con-
tributed splendid editorials on the
various aspects of the problems
of tuberculosis. This work is now re-
garded as the most useful ever UNDER
taken in the state of Iowa, as it is
fundamental and therefore of primary
importances. This is not in any way
discouraging to those other great
movements which have to do with
juvenile delinquency or problems af
fecting criminology, nor yet with other
great social movements; but it is now
beginning to he understood that the
winning of the fight against consump-
tion will also mean much in the settling
of the other great questions agitating
the phianthropic public mind. Let all
the people continue the intelligent
cooperation now being given this
department.

lands Of Texas just after the civil
war. happened to the party that
was helping me run the range lines
on the Texas prairies. We were
pretty nervous about the Indians
and kept sharp lookout for them.
At one time we had quite a brush
with band Of about 800 reds. They
surrounded us. aud we dug trenches
inside circle Of mess wagons. They
pestered us two days, and we had to
tunnel 200 yards for drinking water.
Then we drove them off.

just as day was beginning to break.
We rolled out Of our blankets and
looked around us. On all sides we're
seen the enemy. Not tens nor hun
dreds. bur seemingly Thousands OF

IF dirt never flew before it did
then. Every man seized shovel
and dug trenches for dear life. Bills
tiers blossomed on our hands in no
time. and the sweat streamed from
our fares. but there was no time to
rest. We could see the Indians with
their ponies lying down. the red
devils peering over the horses and
they covered the prairies as far as
the eve could see. Occasionally an
Indian could be seen running on
foot from one horse to another
Farther away they were gallopine
around on horseback.
I'm the few minutes between the
early morning twilight and day
break we had trenched and fortified
our camp. Then We relaxed t.

over the prairie the mists cleared
from before our eyes and some one
cried in a Startled voice.

WASHINGTON.-One of the first in
w novations attempted by Mrs.
William Howard Taft has brought dis
appointment to the wife of the presi.
dent OF the United States. Criticism
Is never pleasant, and especially when
one tries to launch a Utopian reform
and fails. But that is what Mrs. Taft
seems to have done and the storm
that has been stirred by her interior
ence with ancient custom is still ris-
ing.
The trouble arose over Mrs. Taft's
desire to have the Marine bands
weekly concerts, that heretofore have
peen given on the lawn behind the
White House, transferred to some
other place. In looking over avail
able places where the Washington
lans, black and white, might listen to
the music, the presidents wife found

But such legislation has grown SO
rapidly that either it must be limited

before the adjournment of the present
extra session of congress. Such legis-
Iation has grown rapidly until, during
the last congress, about 5000 bills, the
object of most of which was to in
crease existing pensions, were passed.
During the present session about
1000 bills providing for pensions not
obtainable under the general pension
laws have been introduced in the sem
ate alone.
The reasons urged for such legis-
lation have been in the nature of ex-
ceptional conditions either relating to
the necessities of the applicant or to
a failure on his part to satisfy the
