Druggists Haze
Woes. Same as
the Rest of Us

Despite the wonders Of modern medt-
cine and surgery, and The fact that
Marshalltown is well supplied with
physicians to minister to the needs ana
ailments of all who are sick, there are
still many people who pin their faith
in the "apothecary," or modern drug
gist and who tell him their troubles
expecting expert advice ana instant re-
lief
Between and 10 O'Clock the other
evening nearly fifteen people came INTO
a local drug store and told the pro-
prietor of something the matter with
them. and wanted him to diagnose
their cases, prescribe medicine, ana
put it up. all for the price of the rem
edy. Some of the cases and the way
the invalids described them follow:
First came a man, actually bent
double with agony from what he de-
scribed as Jumping toothache." He
could not keep still, but was con-
tinually giving short grun;s. standing
first on one foot and then on the 9TH
er, and holding his jaw with death
like grip. He wanted something to
stop the ache. The druggist advised
pulling the painful molar, But the man
waved him away in anger. That's
the very reason l don't go to a dem
tist.' he yelled. Il won't have it pulled.

supplied with tootchache drops for

the patient, but it hurts You must

surprising knowledge of classical lore.

The next person to enter the store
was a tall, nervous appearing man.
who sided up to the proprietor and
asked in voice that could he heard all

food. While the package was being
wrapped up he launched into full and
cried good deal. and did the druggist
know of anything to stop it besides
walking the floor all night ?" The drug
gist did not, and the man left, dis
consulate.
After that came a man with a cold.
and then one with a headache, and
again another with a toothache. One
healthy looking individual had pains
in his shoulder. what kind of pains he
could not tell, but they were pains.
Some one else thought he had appen-
dicitis, while a rosy checked boy Won

Interspersed with the invalids were
people who consumed matted milks

PAYS Big WATER BILL.
Lenrox Furnace Company Settles With
City For Unmetered Service.

Lennox Furnace Company Settles With
City For Unmstered Service.
A water bill Of $3.50. probably the
largest of its kind ever paid at one
time. was paid Monday afternoon by
the Lennox Furnace Company after II.
A. Kinnan, assistant secretary and
treasurer Of the company and City
Clerk ]. J. Wilson had negotiated
settlement. The payment was for I'M
metered water that had been used by
the company during the last eight
years.
The discovery that not Ill Of the
water used at the furnace factory was
metered. was made by the city several
weeks ago, when the company sought
pipe lines to it's new factory. When
the company was notified of the dis
covery it offered to have the city meter
the unmetered service and the COM
pany would settle for the eight years
on a basis Of the meter reading for the
one month.
The fact that not all Of the water
service of the company was not
metered is declared by officers Of the
company to have been unknown to
them. The service main into the plant
was laid long before the Lennox Fur
mace Company occupied the buildings.
This service was metered in the boiler
room A few years ago the company
built toilet south of its main building
and a foundry. It extended the water
service to these buildings by tapping
a main near the main building. 1t was
presumed that this service was
metered but as it proved. 1t was not.
The amount paid in settlement was
rendered voluntarily by the furnace
company in full settlement and as such
was accepted by the city.
