PRODUCED IN GERMANY

BERLIN. March 15.-Intellectu, II
Germany is keenly interested in the
approaching production at the Kleines
theatre in Berlin of a dramatic work
found among the papers of the late
Count Leo Tolstoy after mis- death.
The drama, which is entitled the
Living Corpse" is divided into
twelve scenes and the play deals
with the contemporary Russian life.
The first scene takes place in Moscow
in the palace of Count Fedor Pro-
tassoff. the only male survivor of a
long line of great mobiles. He, how
ever. has been marshal OF nobility
IN his own province, but has evacuated
that office owing to his inherent OBJ
lection to any kind of work.
He leads an extremely dissipated
lie, and is shown at the outset leav.
ing his home. with a purse full of
money, to indulge in new depravities.
His mother, true noblewoman. ex
presses her Indignation at his mode
OF life, while his wife. Countess Lisa
Protassoff, endures all the unhappi-
ness of her married life with incred-
IDLE resignation. Perceiving that her
husband Systematically leaves his
home to indulge in dissipated orgies,
Countess Lisa Protassoff writes to the
friend of her youth, Baron Victor
harenin. and begs him to visit her.
Her relatives believe that she will
now separate from her worthless
husband. and marry Baron Karenin
who has loved her all her life, but the
countess merely begs Karenin to serve
her by searching for the count and
bringing him home. She assures
karenin that, being married to the
count, she cannot desert him because
she loves him in spite of everything.

while he lies upon a couch half dress

He is deeply in love with young
gypsy girl, who reciprocates his feel

Professor is perturbed at the sight of
Karenin, but endeavors to make it
clear to him that although he loves
the countess, he cannot hope to make
her happy, SO that he consider it
more advisable that they should part
forever.

A Warning To Many
Some Interesting Facts Re-
garding Health Statistics

Few people realize to what extent
their health depends upon the con
dition of the kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases OF
serious illness, makes a chemical
analysis of the patients urine. He
knows that unless the kidneys are do
ing their work properly, the other
organs cannot be brought back to
health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused in any way, serious results are
sure to follow. According to health
statistics, Bright's disease which is
really an advanced form of kidney
trouble, caused nearly ten thousand
deaths in 1909, in the state of New
York alone. Therefore, it behooves us
to pay more attention to the health
OF these most important organs.

ACROSS SOUTHERN IOWA
Sign Boards of Good Size to Blaze the
Way From Eastern Nebraska

number of Keokuk people have
received letters and information re-
garding the Waubonsie Trail which is
to cross the southern tier of Iowa
counties from Nebraska City to Keo-
kuk
In letter from U. G. Reininger of
Shenandoah. president of the Waub-
onsie Trail Association, he explains
the river to river road movement in
the following brief manner:
The object of the association as
discussed in the meetings which have
been held in Western Iowa and East
ern Nebraska is to mark and blaze
by means of sign boards, posts, ETC.,
road entirely across the state and
into the neighbor states east and west
of Iowa. The association through its
local or county organizations will do
all it can to foster the demand for
better roads, and will indirectly con-
tribute of energy and means to as.
slst in making the Waubonsie Trail
the most popular road for automobiles
and ether traffic in the state.
The advocates of this Trail believe
that its permanent location will ma
tefially affect the value of every
county through which it passes and
of every farm or town on its line of
location.
The object of this letter is to inter
est you and through you your local
commercial or booster organization,
whereby united effort may be enlisted
in this good work.
In a short time a condensed map
will be issued showing the towns on
the Trail and the approximate direc-
tion taken all along the road. A short
time later an engineer will be sent
over the proposed route to secure To-
cations for sign posts and TO direct
the marking of telegraph and tele-
phone poles where they adjoin or ira
verse the road. An official photo
grapfer viii accompany him and the
two will gather material with which
TO advertise the Trail and later a
Waubonsie Trail Association folder or
time table will be issued, similar to
that issued by the big railroads.
This will he an innovation along
advertising or souvenir lines and will
be very attractive.
The Trail from river to river will
be marked at all road intersections
With white sign boards 1sxAs inches in
size. with the name OF the trail and
the direction and distance 10 the prin-
cipal adjacent towns.
Now, friend, this is an Iowa boost
er movement and we want you and
your county and town to join in the
movement. It is mutual affair and
it is a progressive one. Give US your
hand and get busy pushing for better
roads. a better state, a better county
and a better town.
We are sending you under another
cover a copy OF one OF the Shenan-
doah papers describing the organiza-
ton of this good roads movement,
and the first thing for you TO do is
to join hands with some kindred spir-
its and form local organization. The
membership fees have been placed
low and every cent of money paid in
will be expended on the Trail itself,
