PRAISE FOR BARR.


Like a bolt from a clear sky came
the report Tuesday that Warren Mar
quis Barr would be succeeded Jan. 1,
1912. by Charles c. McClaugry. who is
at present superintendent Of the Mis-
souri, Training School for Boys at
Bonneville, Mo. The people of Ana
nlosa have the utmost respect for
Warden Barr. No man has a warmer
spot in the hearts of our people than
has he. Citizens, employees. and In
mates regret sincerely the early de-
parture of this excellent citizen. War
den Barr served as warden at Ana
Inosa for six years from 1892. He was
again appointed Nov. /, 1906. to sue
coed Warden Hunter. 1t is the unani-
nous wish here that the rurcored ap-
pointment of Warden Barr at Fort
Madison may prove true.

BARN A NUISANCE.

In a suit entitled Templeton VS.. Will
liams, 116 Pacific Reporter, 1862. to en-
join the use of a barn as a nuisance,
plaintiff alleges that defendants barn,
near his dwellings, causes great dis
comfort because of the stencil and OBJ
noxious odors as well az the accumu-
lations of flies and vermin and the fos-
tering of rodents in and about the
houses. The supreme court of Oregon
holds that a stable or barn IL not a null
sance per Sc, but may become one, and
that In this case where 1t created an
unsanitary condition in a dwelling dis
trict and caused the discomforts al
legged it is a nuisance. The court says:
Because in olden times both man and
beast were housed under the same root
is no reason why ct the present time a
stable should be used in the resident
district of city, where 1t becomes a
nuisance to adjacent homes. Old things
have passed away to q certain extent
and many changes have taken place
in the customs and manners of civilized
life"

CHILD'S FATHER IS HIS PARENT

parents were dead, to certain other
relatives Soon after. the son died In
good standing in the order. His father
claimed to be the sole beneficiary, the
mother having died. Uncles and aunts
of the insured also claimed the money.
The lower court went upon the theory
that II the son could not transmit
to the father under the technical laws
Of inheritance. then the father was not
his parent and could not be beneffc-
iary. The supreme court OF Colorado
holds that this is not the proper test,
but that the proper construction OF the
contract, and not the law OF inheritance
fixes the rights Of the parties. The
discussion of the court is Of interest:
"If the mother was not a parent, her
collateral kindred are not eligible as
benefciaries. Their standing OF eligi-
bility depends upon the parentase OF
the mother. This OF necessity drives

FREE REMEDY HELPS CHILDREN

Many a mother has learned of q
way of avoiding sickness in her fam
lily, especially among the children, by
the use of free sample bottle of the
famous laxative, Dr. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin. This offer of the doctors to
send free sample bottle has been re-
sponded to by thousands of women
IN all parts of America.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a
truly wonderful laxative and espe-
cially adapted to the needs of babies
and children because it is pleasant. to
taste and no child will refuse it. Then,
it is mild and never gripes. 1t is all
that child's remedy should be,
though it is good laxative for the
whole family because it is effective
at all ages. 1t is not dynamic like
salts, pills and powerful cathartics,
which should not be given to chill
dren under any circumstances.
