ISOLATED RABBITS ARE
EASY PREY FOR HUNTERS

McGREGOR, Ia, Nov. 3.-A phe-
nomenon of this flood stage OF the
Mississippi at this place is the havoc
il is making with the hordes Of rab-
bits which have homes ON islands
For twJ years the water has been
so low the cottontails haye been left
in undisuuted possession OF a wide
range OF high, dry. island lands. Here
they have increased in enormous
numbers The back waters of the Wis
cJnsin have turned the river between
McGregor and the confluence OF the
Mississippi and Wisconsin three miles
below into a great currentless lake.
Only the high places on the islands
are above water. TO these the rab-
bits in desperate plight have fed, un-
til in some places the ground and
stumps of trees are literally gray
with them
They are suffering wanton slaugh.
ter at the hands OF hunters. Thou.
sands OF them have been shot and
dubbed. and thousands more have
been drowned or starved.

had a wife and children back In Edin-
burgh. Scotland. He had been mar

Scott averred.
He declares his name is Scott, the
complainant says, but cannot explain
how he came TO forget his first wife
so long a period. He does not recall
any fall or illness that would have
tended TO impair his memory. His
second wife was obdurate in her con-
tention that there was nothing for
them TO do but to separate and she
would secure a divorce.
Meantime Mr.. Scott will return TO
Scotland and institute search for his
wife and children. The agreement
with the second wife is that II he
finds them he will atone for his long
absence b. settling in his native
land. II he is unsuccessful in his
search he will return and Will again

strongly TO take command Of a cadet

called out the state troops and ordered
that corps OF cadets be held ready
for immediate service. Jackson, then
major, reported at once at the guard
room as ready for duty. General
Smith said:
"MaJor Jackson, you will remain as
you are until further orders"
Jackson at that moment was sitting
on camp stool In the guardroom with
his saber across his knees. At reveille
the next morning he was found In the
same position.
"Why, major, why are you herep ex-

Comparatively a new science by
which the cause of disease is deter.
mined and the art of removing the
same by the hands without medicine
or surgery. The spinal column
is the main shaft or support of the
human body, and is composed of 26
articular joints or movable bones
(Vertebrae) through which the spi-
nal cord passes, sending out from
between each of these Vertebrae
nerve filaments to the different or
gans, muscle and tissue of the body.
How vital these nerves to our being:
Destroying those of the finger, arm
or leg, or any other member of our
body, and that member is also des-
troyed; or impinge or otherwise in
jure a nerve of any portion of the
body, and trouble begins. Think
how often accidents happen, even
from the moment of birth to that
of old age, such as falls, sprains,
poisons, bad colds, etc., that so Of

thus impingeing or otherwise inter-
fering with the nerves passing
from between them, which may
cause the Asthma, Infant Paralysis,
Heart, Kidney, Stomach and Liver
and all other troubles, owing to
what organ, tissue or member that
