POINT FOR BUDDING GENIUS
Inspiration to Be Attained From Ere.
qucnt Doses Of Epson Salts,
Says Physician.

A writer in the British Medical
Journal makes this rather aston;sh-
ing statement that poets may gain
much inspiration, and stimulate
their capacities generally, by taking
occasional doses of Epson salts.
As will be gathered from this
writer's argument. poets are typical
OF a certain temperament which re-
acts. at times. unfortunately upon
physical conditions-which many
such persons try to offset with cof-
fee, alcohol or drugs. In advising
this substitution of Epson salts, he
says:
''Therc can be no doubt that the
liver, which was regarded by the an
clients as the seat of the passions, is
readily disturbed by mental emo
lions. Anxiety as to the fate Of a
book, an article, or a paper, or az to
the result OF an experiment, may not
only disturb the function of the liver
worry may even indirectly cause
organic disease.
byron is cited as an instance of
the value of Epson salts, which he
says acted on him like champagne.
dryden prepared himself for the
visitation OF the divine afllatns by
salts"

WAS wARPlNe FROM HEAT
sandy Legs Of Man Watching Fire
horrify Gallant Would-be :.
Restuer.

The great Chicago fire is recalled
by Mr.. F. F. Cook in ''Bygone Days
in Chicago" and he tells this anus
ing story Of Isaac Spear, a we'll
known matchmaker in the early days.
Mr.. Spear was very short, and so abb
normally bandy-legged as to attract
instant attention.
He' was in the forefront of the
crowd, watching the fire, and at one
time became so absorbed in the spec
tacle that he stood ut a point. of inn
minent danger, like one transfxed.
A kindly newsboy, alarmed at the
situation, rushed CALAMITY forward
and, tapping him on the shoulder,
shouted above the din:
"Say, mister, if you don't come
away you'll burnt"
The caution not having the de-
sired effect, the youngster sprang to
the rescue a second time. Once more
he gave anxious warning, and still
Isaac paid no heed.
On returning to a place of safety,
the boy, to his horror, observed the
little mans deformity. Screening
his face with his arms, he charged
again into the consuming heat, and,
while literally dragging the watch
maker to a place of safety, shrieled
in his ear:
"You must come away! You're

Webster City. Aug. 2s.-At an en-
thusiastic meeting of the sportsmen OF
this city and community. the services
of Senator d. G. Chase. of this city,
were enlisted in a vigorous protest TO
be registered against the manner IN
which the state executive council
handled the leasing of Wall Lake 70:
drainage purposes. MIR. Chase will CO.
operate with llcal sportsmen to the
end of joining the min their protest
and Of using whatever influence ana
power he possesses toward forcing
resembling of the lease, If such thine
is possible.
The meeting in this city was largely
attended and the protest of Hamilton
county hunters based upon three prop
ositions.
First. they charge that the bill au-
thorizing the lease of this lake was
jobbed thru the legislature without
general knowledge OF it's contents and
that. to make matters worse. the lake
was leased to Fred Austin. OF CLARION
who is son in law OF State Treas
urer w. c. Brown. a member OF the
state executive council.
Secondly. they charge that the prlc"
at which the lake was leased Is ridlcu-
lousy lows cents per acre per year.
They further a!lege along this line that
had the matter been left to an open
bid. the state could have obtained more
money for this lease.
Lastly, II is recited that a federal
law has just been passed which ados
much to the protection OF game in IN
land districts and that Wall lake is
one of a very few breeding spots left IN
Iowa. They believe that now, more
than any other time, the state '5eds
this lake as breeding spot-that It's
value as such has been many times
enhanced by the new federal law.
The move to drain Wall lake mas
stirred sportsmen all over Iowa to ac-
ton and Hamilton county hunters, VINO
are located advauageously close ~
this lake. are preparing to take lead
ing part in the big fight that will be
waged to prevent its drainage. state
Fish and Game Warden Henshaw Is
in full sympathy with the movement
and sportsmen here favor going the
limit in whatever movement can be In
augurated for the preservation OF this
lake.

amount of application made.
Mr.. Pritchard said that the couse. as

in which to learn the printing trade
than anywhere else. The boy or girl
will be instructed In every branch of

at the end of the course should have
more comprehensive knowledge Of
the business than that acquired in the
average printing office.
Mr.. Pritchard said much of the four
