To the Rescue
in Blood Diseases
Just the Help Needed to Over
come Worst Troubles.

In S. S. S., the famous blood purifier.
is the greatest natural repair crew known.
1t Is an antidote for germs, that once let
loose, multiply so fast that a definite dis
ease is apparent over night. And yet SO
powerful Is the influence of S. S. S. that
like vast army 1t spreads all through
the blood, checks disease, opens up all the
valves Of escape and throws out disease
through the lungs, kidneys, bladder, bowels
and skin.
Do not become panic stricken If a rash
or boils or eruptions infiame the skin.
Nature is doing her best but Nature Is at
the same time calling for help, and in
:. 5. s. is just the kind of help Nature
demands, for 1t is pure vegetable remedy
with an action that vigorously follows the
blood channels and cleans and repairs as
1t goes along. In every community are
people who know this to be true. They
have used S. S. s. and are blood clean,
through and through.
Get a bottle of s. s. s. today at any
drug store. Drive out those destructive
germs that cause skin eruptions, sore throat,
swollen glands, blood rsIngs, painful rheu-
matte joints, chronic bronchitis, and most
all conditions of disease Read the folder

instantly neutralizes these acids; stops

Des :Moines, March 23.-The charac-
ter Of one state institution is under
going real change. Because of the
change in its general character the in
stitution at Glenwood Is overcrowded
and has not room now to accommodate
those who should be there. Superin-
tendent Mogridge reports that he has
between 1900 and 1,400 all the time
and has waiting list of 200 applicants
for care at the institution.
The reason for this is that whereas
formerly this institution was merely a
retreat or place of detention for the
idiots, or persons practically without
mentality, 1t Is now more of school
and industrial institution for not only
the mentally incompetent but for all
that much larger class of mentally de-
fective persons looked upon by the
public in other years as queer" but
not c.assed as feeble minded. The in
stitution now receives a great many
persons that would formerly never
have been sent there.
These subnormal persons now COM
pose the larger part Of the population
at the Glenwood institution. They are
able to learn great deal and are ca
pable Of being taught trades and
habits of usefulness. When they are
young and are given the proper train
ing they are converted into useful citi-
zens, in many cases, and practically
always are helped very much by tn.
special care and education given them.
a great variety of trades and cccupa-
tions are taught at the institution.
The result is that now, quite different
from the situation in the past, the par
ents of these defective children seek
to have them placed at the institution
for special training. That is why the
capacity of the institution is tested

Dubuque, March 23.-The returning
of an indictment against Mrs. Dora
Brazzell. Wife Of Charles Brazzell a
street car conductor. whose mutilated
body was found by her In their home
on Rhomberg avenue, Jan. "a. marks
the end Of the first leg of the journey
toward what is hoped will be the con-
viction of the guilty parties. Mrs
Brazzell is charged with murder and is
held without bail. That other indict-
ments in the same case have been re-
turned, tho the parties concerned are
not in custody, Is the general belief.
The grand jury concluded the longest
session ever held In Dubuque county
Saturday afternoon.
Charles Brazzell evidently had been
dead several days, possibly week,
when discovered. 1t was shown on the
coroner's inquest that Brazzell and his
wife had quarrelled over the attentions
the husband had been showing another
woman and that he had struck his
wife. This was on the Saturday night
proceeding the Saturday upon which
the mans body was found.
Woman's Story Is Vague.
The story told by the wife Of events
transporting between Saturday night
and the Monday following when she
left the city to visit daughter (by a
previous marriage) at Forest City is
somewhat vague.
Suspicion from the start has pointed
to her and widespread criticism was
showered upon the coroner and the
police and county officials for theit
failure to take her into custody. She,
however, had retained one OF the best
lawyers in the state and he was per-
mitted to be present at the coroner
inquest altho the public, including
newspaper men were denied admission
She has been at liberty since then and
until Saturday.
Murder Unusually Brutal.
The murder was one of the most
brutal in the history of the state. The
Jaw was fractured in two places, the
skull broken at the left temple, there
were several scalp wounds, one arm
was fractured and four ribs broken.
The room had been set as stage

and that the beer glasses had not been

mask from the coarse play. ;,
