Cures Dyspepsia;
 Trial Is Free

It is a popular mistake that only wealthy people who eat rich and highly-spiced foods suffer from dys- pepsia, or, as it is also known, indi- gestion. The laborer in the street, the worker in the field also finds him self a victim of this disorder. Among the very greatest sufferers from 1t are women.
 Dyspepsia Is indicated by constant feeling of laziness. by loss of appetite and troubled sleep, by sour stomach and dis tress after eating. by bad complexion and lusterless eyes.
 There is no surer and speedier cure for this trouble than Dr. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin. which dyspeptics have been using successfully for twenty years. This great herb laxative compound cured Capt. Clark. of Buffalo. la. of dyspepsia and sour stomach that he had had for forty years: Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. It cured Joel Adams, of Montgomery Ala. after suffering continuously for sixteen months. These are only a few of the many. But grand remedy. as it can be bought at any drug store in a 50-cent or $l bottle.
 Your very neighbors are probably life- long users of Dr. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin. but if you want to know without expense what 1t will do for you personally. send your name to Dr. Caldwell and he will be glad to send you a free trial bottle. He Is actually anxious to have you make Q test of his remedy.
 Thousands of families everywhere keep 1t in the house against such an emer- gency as constipation. sour stomach. in- digestion, biliousness. dyspepsia. heart- burn, torpid liver. etc, which may come of, a member of the family any day. It Is pleasant to the taste, acts gently and does not gripe. It is the great children's Laxative tonic.

Fort Dodge, July 26-When their de-

of the largest adjacent to this city.

time over year the mine was idle.
nearly one hundred miners being
thrown out of employment
The men on strike are all employed
by the hour, being paid at the rate
Of % cents per hour, but demand of
an increase to 80 cents was made as
result of the increased cost of living.
AS this scale is the same as is paid in
the other seven mines near Fort Dodge
the demand was promptly refused and
the men failed to report for work Sat
urday morning. L. e. Armstrong, presi-
cent of the Plymouth Gypsum Com
pany was seriously puzzled over the
situation on Saturday, he having al
ways made an effort to keep all of his
employees at work in season and out of
season, and while between 5000 and
10000 tons of rock are now above
ground and it will be possible for him
to keep his mill running full force from
SIX to eight weeks, if the trouble is not
settled before that time. He had no
desire to have his miners remain in
idleness for that period Of time.
A solution of the difficulty came dur
ing Saturday afternoon when Grace
jackson. one of the stenographers en-
ployed in the offices of the company.
suggested to four others they desert
their typewriters and descend into the
mine and drive mules. The other girls
fell in with the suggestion quickly, and
encouraged by the suggestion of the
girls 1t was not difficult matter to
induce some of the men from the mills
to act as cagers and trackmen, and this
morning the mine is in operation the
same as before, but instead of men

Two More Logan Relics.
Special to Times-Republican.

Logan, July 26.-Lester Adams, a
farmer near Logan, has placed in the
hands of a friend for the inspection Of
Professors Shemick and Calvin, two

thickness. The other is evidently a
tooth of an elephant. The tooth is six
and six-tenths inches long, by five and
eight-tenths, by two and nine-tentns

In regard to the pure drug law some

The next state tax levy will probably

levy till that is done. The council does
not so UGH fix" the levy as it does

erty is known any one can determine
what the tax levy will be as easily as
the executive council
The three main items of taxable
property are already known The total
taxable value of the real and personal
property in the state amounts to SILL
S64,740 and the railroad property will
be about the same as last year which
was $6S,527.616. Other sources of tax
tble property bring the amount up to
s679,65S,747. On this valuation a total
of 100000 is to be raised which ne
cessitates tax levy of S.4 mills. A
levy of 3.S mills would raise but s2,242.-
S57S6 and a levy of "a mills will raise
$3.50 S22.73. The executive council is
authorized TO take into account any un-
usual receipts the state is likely to get.
One year there was a payment of a
considerable fund in Inheritance taxes
and corporation fees. These consider
ably cut down the levy that year This
year there is nothing of that kind eN-
pected so the levy will probably be
about "a mills.
