DIABETES
That Costs Nothing If 1t

Diabetes has long been considered
an ~incurable disease and the My

prolong their years by abstemious 1iv-
ing. A newly discovered plant in Mex
leo called Diabetol herb has been
found to be a specific in the treatment
of diabetes, Quic--lv reducing the spe-
cifc gravity and sugar, restoring the
weight and building up the system.

weeks and will remcve the worst
symptoms in the most aggravated
cases. Call at our store and see the

BURNS TO DEATH
Oska1oosa's Woman Mayor Dies After
Hours of Suffering.

Oskaloosa, June Am. accident
occurred here which resulted in the
death of Mrs. Mary d. Lowman, one
time mayor of Oskaloosa, wife of DIR.
Lowman, city clerk, mother of DR.. r.
C. Lowman of Kansas City, and aunt
of Dr.. McCreight, county health Of
ficer, of Oskaloosa. Mrs. Lowman
was 72 years of age and in feeble
health, and when alone in the home
in some way set fire to her clothing
in trying to revive the fire in the cook
stove to prepare the evening meal. A
man passing the house heard her cry
out and saw her clothes burning, and
pulling off his coat as he ran he
wrapped it about her and tried to
put out the flames at the same time
calling for help, but by the time the
fire was e~xtinguished Mrs. Lowman
was burned from head to foot except
one spo on n shoulder and a spot
on one hip. Medical aid was hastily
summoned, but all that could be don
was to u h pain somewhat,
and at Sunday morning the sufferer
died.
Mrs. Lowman was elected mayor of
Oskaloosa, together with a woman
council, in 1888 and again in 1889.
The first election created great in
terest all over the United States, and
much to the embarrassment of the
ome who were of Oskaloosa's
prominent families, they found them
selves famo-s.
II dAu 1GJlSTS poured III
from afi over this country and from
foreign countries. Reporters from
the city papers followed each other to
the quiet country town whose electors
had done something never heard of
before-turned the city government
over to ONE and all in good faith
and in the interest of civic righteous
ness, a clean town and needed i'm
provements.
St. Louis, Chicago, a Francisco
and even Boston paper telegraphed
for specials, and photographs of the
women were in demand everywhere.
One ready print house featured the
affair with a full set of pictures and
columns of matter.
Mrs. Lowman was a woman of fine
character and rare good sense and the
finest modesty, n she bravely and
quietly, with her assistants, went on
with the work of governing the little
city of a thousand people, and it was
well governed, too, and an example
set that told for the right for years
following. Mrs. LoWman's portrait
and a sketch of her life appeared in
a book by Frances Willard and Mary
published some years ago
and entitled Women of the Nine
