At the fine country home of Mr.. and
Mrs. w. w. Perrine in Viola township,
on Wednesday evening, August %, 1911,
at $50, John B. Durbin and Miss Leah
G.. Perrine were united in marriage.
The wedding march entitled Fairview

Mack. This selection announced the
coming of the bridal party, preceded by
Rev. j. HI. Freedline officiating minister
and beautiful little girl dressed in
white in the person of Miss Lucille
Perrine who acted well her part as ring
bearer. On the petals of a white rose
the ring was borne which was used in
the ring ceremony that made the happy
couple one for life. The bridal couple
took their place under a beautiful white
wedding bell where in the presence OF
immediate relatives the ceremony
was said.
The groom is son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Jas. Durbin and is known as an excellent
young man with good habits. His
many friends join in heartiest congrat-
ulations in his selection of his accom-
plished young bride who is daughter

Picture Agent Improving.

Yesterday in conversation with the
reporter at the home of Miss Lucy Lieb
where he is being taken care of Mr..
Lane, the picture agent who it is claimed
was badly beaten up two weeks ago
to-day by Emery Garroutte at the
latter's home in the country denied
having in any way insulted Miss Gar
ROUTE and says he has witnesses to
prove his assertion. He claims to have
been lying in the hay NOW of the barn
resting when Garroutte came in and
said he was "Wild Horse Charlie" and
proceeded to show him how to break
horses by jumping on him and beating
and kicking him and taking hold of his
head and beating it against the floor
He appears to be about sixty years old.
Mr.. Lanes life was dispaired of for a
few days this week but he is getting ON
nicely the past two days. A brother
of his in Kansas was notified of his
condition, but as yet no reply has been
received from him. The hearing against
Garroutte was postponed because of
Lane not being able to appear and now
it will be postponed indefinitely until
Garroutte can be located and brought
back here as he left Audubon, Sunday,
going to Manning where he was seen to
take Great Western train, but had not
purchased ticket. Sheriff Crees has
sent out postal cards giving his descrip-
ton, and asking his arrest.

Iowa people who have never wit
messed the great stock parade which
is always held on the last day of the
State Fair have missed the sight of a
lifetime. 1t is worth more to go see
than to catch glimpse of corona
ton parade or an inaugural display.
The horses and cattle that have won
the ribbons are brought out and
marched before the amphitheater,
each animal with his evidences Of
prize winning, each one groomed per-
fectly, and all carefully handled. The
visitor gets a chance to compare
herds and breeds as well as individual
animals. Only the best Of the ami
mails are shown. Their value may
easily reach a million dollars; for the
Iowa State Fair attracts the very
best herds in the world and larger
number of prize winning horses and
cattle than ever come together at any
other place.

Morse Treatment
For Cancer

If taken in time by the course of
treatment given by DR.. G. o. Morse.
Cancer is supposed by many to be in
durable. That this superstition is in
correct is shown by the number of cures
thar are being effected both in the
United States and in England.
1t is fact, however, that under the
treatment of DR.. Morse, he has larger
percentage of cures to his credit than
any other in the world
These cures are effected without the
use of escharotics.
If the patient has already been
operated on for cancer, this treatment
will prevent any recurrence of the dis
ease.
WE MAKE NO CHARGES FOR
EXAMINATION AND DIAGNOSE
OF CASES, AND IF YOU CANNOT
BE CURED BY THIS TREATMENT,
WE WILL FRANKLY TELL YOU
so; BUT EVEN IN INCURABLE
CASES, WE CAN PREVENT ANY
FURTHER PAIN, WITHOUT THE
USE OF MORPHINE.
In large percentage of cases where
cure is impossible, we can also stop
any further progress of the disease, and
thus prolong life without further pain
or suffering. We treat you ON the mer-
its of our cure and not by "quackery."
If you are afflicted with this dread
disease, or have friend who is. don't
fail to call or write us for particulars.

LOW RATES TO SIOUX CITY
All Railroads Grant Reductions On
Account OF Big Interstate Live

All railroads running to Sioux City
have authorized reductions in the pas
senger rates to Sioux City on account
of the Interstate Live Stock Fair the
week of September Is, and this will
mean saving of many thousands of
dollars to the people.
AS the reductions will extend over
large radius, the effect undoubtedly
will mean much larger attendance
at the Fair than there would have been
if the railroads had maintained their
regular rates. The fare now will be so
cheap that everybody can come.

Iowa leads in cattle, dairy and beef
breeds, for every farm in the state
supplies some additions to the list
In recent years there has been an i'm.
mense increase in the number of pure
bred dairy cattle, for the dairymen
are coming to realize that only the
best give profits such as they would
like. One great influence in this di.
rection has been the annual State
Fair, where liberal prizes are offered
for cattle, and where the finest dairy
and beef herds of the country are
shown. The cattle exhibit at the
State Fair has no rival in the country.

HARRY STALEY FOUND
DEAD THIS MORNING
Body Was Lying In A Shed At The
North End OF The Audubon
Canning Factory.

The people of Audubon were greatly
shocked this morning as the word pas
sed around the streets that Harry Staley
was found lying dead at the Canning
Factory. A reporter fastened to the
place where crowd of people had al
ready gathered to see if the report was
correct, Marshal Darnold was present
and Coroner Harmon arrived soon after
wards. A jury composed of Messrs.
Dick Northup, VIM. Rucker and Amos
Fancher was selected After viewing
the body adjournment was taken until
one o'clock this afternoon when the in
quest will be held. Mr.. Harmon then
removed the body to his undertaking
rooms to prepare it for burial.
Marshal Darnold says about A o'clock
yesterday afternoon young Staley stop
ped and talked with him where he was
fixing sidewalk just north of the Can
ming Factory Others saw him around
there later in the evening. EARLY this
morning some of the boys employed at
the factory saw him lying in the shed
with his right arm under his face and
supposed he was asleep. Later one OF
them took him by the hand which re-
vealed that he was dead. There was
no apparent evidence of any struggle
and the position of the body indicated
that he had laid down to sleep that
had no waking. The deceased was the
son of Mr.. and Mrs. T. w. Staley Of
Audubon. He had grown up here and
was about % years of age. The funeral
will probably be held tomorrow.
