Noisy Nuisances.

Ill-fltting doors and windows rep.
resent happy hunting ground for the
disturbing winds. In fact, SO annoying
does the constant rattle Of these open
ings become that many determined in
dividuals, who resolve to admit the
fresh air, choose the lesser of two
evils and close the openings in prefer
ence to sleepless nights This can be
remedied If a small wedge Of wood
be driven at the side Of an open
window; door can be prevented
from rafting if pad or strip of thick
felt be nailed OH the edge Of the door.
The annoyance Of creaking drawers
can be eliminated by rubbing common
soap upon the top, sides and bottom Of
each.
Cracking hinges on anything should
be we'll oiled, while the grating, irri-
tating noise of a sewing machine can
be overcome in a similar manner.
The little noises wear away the pa
tience that is required for other
things. 1t were foolish to dissipate
energy through the channels of irri.
tated nerves when a little time will
obviate the nuisances.

CONDITIONS ADJUST PRICES
Iowa State Medical Association Re-
fuses to Adopt Scale for Uni
form County Prices.

Des Moines, May 20.-Iowa doctors
do not favor increasing the price of
their services or the adoption of uni
form service fees. The Iowa State
Medical society turned down a reso-
luton recommending that all county
associations adopt uniform scale
of service charges. The resolution was
presented at the meeting Of the house
of delegates, the legislative body, and
was laid on the table by big vote.
The resolution stated that the cost
of practicing had increased two-fold
although the service fees had remain
ed the same for twenty-five years.
1t recommended that each county Or
ganization adopt uniform fees, the
idea being to boost the prices to meet
the increase in cost. Opponents of
the resolution got the floor. They de-
clared that conditions should be al
lowed to adjust the prices.
The appointment of committee to
consider changes in publishing the Of
fetal convention reports was also au.
thOriZed.

LIFE-SAPPING PARA
SITES THAT WRECK
HUMAN SYSTEM

The following remarkable statement
was recently made by l.. T. Cooper. 1t
concerns the preparation which has
been so widely discussed throughout
the country during the past year, and
has sold In such enormous quantities
In leading cities:
1T Is now well.known fact that
wherever have introduced my New
Discovery medicine, hundreds of peo-
pie have brought internal parasites, or
tapeworms, to me. In many cases these
people did not know the nature of the
parasite, and were consequently ex.
tremely nervous until explained the
matter to them. In some cities so
many have had this experience that
the public generally became alarmed.
II take this opportunity of explain.
Ing what these creatures are, and what
have learned about them in the past.
"Tapeworms are much more com.
mon than would be supposed. l ven-
ture to say that ten per cent. of all
chronic stomach trouble, or what is
known as rundown condition, Is
caused by them. An individual may
suffer for years with one of these
great parasites and not be aware of it.
Contrary to general belief. the appe-
tite Is not greatly increased-it only
becomes irregular. There is general
feeling of faintness, however, and a
gnawing sensation in the pit of the
stomach.
People afflicted with one Of these
parasites are nervous and depressed.
Their chief sensation is one of Ian
guor, and they tire very easily. Lack
of energy and ambition affect the body.
and the mind becomes dull and slug
gish. The memory becomes not SO good,
and the eyesight is generally poorer.

ach and bowels of all impurities,
seems to be fatal to these great worms,

one who has the experience just re.
lated with my preparation, that there
is no cause for alarm in the matter,
and that it will as rule mean a speedy

A PROCLAMATION.
During the dark days of 1S61,65
when the life Of the nation was hang
ing in a balance, thousands of the
best citizens of our commonwealth
went forth to battle for the preserva-
ton of the union. While many of
them returned at the close of that
great conflict to take up the honor
able pursuits of the private citizens
as We'll as those of public life, hun
dreds left their bodies upon southern
battlefields Or in northern graves, a
noble sacrifice for their country's
cause. Since the war many heroes
of the rebellion have come from other
states and taken up their homes in
our splendid commonwealth which
they have helped to shape and to
build.
A large portion of those who sur.
vived the war have since been called
to the great beyond and their bodies
have been laid to rest beneath the
sods of our beautiful state.
Both by custom and by law the thir.
tieth day of May has been set aside
as day to be observed in memory of
the greatest army of men the world
has ever known. No more appropriate
time could have been selected than
when nature is breathing forth the
sweet perfume Of the flowers Of early
springtime. In memory of the dead
and with profound respect for the liv.
ing /, B. F. Carroll, governor of the
state of Iowa, do earnestly request
that Monday, May 80, be again observ-
ed as day of devotional gratitude
to those responsible for the preser.

respectfully entreat that upon this
day the usual pursuits of life and all
amusements that will dertact from
the solemnity Of the day be abandon
ed and that we turn our thoughts and
actions to deeds in harmony with the
purpose for which the day is set
aside and that We join with the sur.
viving members of the Grand Army Of
the Republic, and all others, in con-
Quoting fitting ceremonies common.

cause for which they fought and that
We lay our tribute of respect upon
the graves of the departed heroes and
at the feet of those whose lives are
yet spared to bless and ennoble our
great state. .
In witness whereof l have hereunto
set my hand and caused to be affixed
the great seal of the state of Iowa.

one OF the rescuers, said that he

believes that many more are buried
in the debris.
Over 100 men were in the mill at
the time Of the explosion and 1t is
not believed that more than dozen
escaped injury. A large number of
these are fatally injured. Seven boil
ers, OF 1000 horsepower each, ex-
ploded simultaneously in an L~shaped
addition near the middle of the main
mill. All employees connected with
that department were blown to atoms,
it is believed.
One body was thrown by the force
OF the explosion through the side Of
home square and half away from
through the house and came out on
the other side. 1t landed on a fence
across the street and knocked it down.
Another body was picked up a half
mile away from the scene of the ex-

through the window Of the office rs

sion is unknown.
Women and children whose hus.

about the wrecked plant, weeping and
wringing their hands.
Windows are broken in all houses

1t Is not known yet whether the ex-
plosion was the result of an accident
or was due to an act of conspirators,
but the former hypothesis is consid.
cred the more probable.

Treat that prisoner the same as
any other" Judge Latshaw said to
County Marshal Joe B. Mayes. Give
him few privileges and no luxuries."
The custom Of permitting prisoners
to send out for their meals will apply
in Doctor Hyde's case, but he must
sleep in a cell.
Il will file motion for new trial
and then take an appeal in the case"
said Frank P. Walsh, chief counsel for
Doctor Hyde.
The verdict came Unexpectedly.
Every attorney in the case had given
up hope that the jury, which had been
out since Friday night, would come to
an agreement.
When the announcement came that
the verdict was ready the news spread
rapidly and every inch Of space in the
courtroom soon was occupied.
Little time was wasted in reading
the verdict. The crowd heard it and
at the marshal's orders arose and left
the room without confusion. Judge
Latshaw thanked each of the jurors
and they hurried home. IT,.
