4 Staple Medicine
For Every Family
No Self Respecting Group Of
People Should be Without 4
Good Family Laxative

It Is inconceivable in this day Of gen.
eral intelligence that any family would
be without a simple remedy for the
minor ills Of life, for often by giving
such a remedy in time serious disease
can be frustrated and life saved.
For example, il at the first sign OF .
cold simple laxative-tonic like Dr..
Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin were given, the
beginning of serious lung affection or
Of typhoid fever might be avoided.
And also in headaches, nervousness.
ETC.. small dose of this remedy would
relieve the congestion and replace dis
tress with comfort. Mothers give 1t to
tiny infants and little children, and
grown people take it with equally good
effect.
Thousands Of good American homes
are never without it, among them the
home of Mrs. G. A. Wright, 1881 Pasa-
dena Ave-, Long Beach. Cal. She had
considerable trouble raising little Law
renee. three years old, but after regu-
lating his bowels with small doses Of
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin he began
to thrive and she had no further trouble
with him. They use 1t generally in her
home.
Syrup Pepsin saves the health OF the
family. and it saves doctors bills. 1t Is
guaranteed cure for any form Of
stomach. liver and bowel trouble. con-
stipation. indigestion. biliousness, gas
on the stomach, headaches. drowsiness

open and bold manner and no one had
any trouble to find 1t. The states
agents found the rooms full of college
students playing poker and roulette.
When Abbott learned that the state
was after him he objected to being
singled out for prosecution, saying
that there are more joints in Iowa city
and some Of them being operated more
openly than his place.
Complaint against the gambling OF
students was sent to the attorney gen.
eral. after the college authorities said
they appealed to the local grand juries
in vain. Cosson Immediately prepared
for the case and instructed County At
torney Hart to file the charges.
The first charges against Abbott
were brought several months ago by
student members Of the Y. NJ. G. A.
The grand jury ignored the case. A
second charge was brought and again
it was ignored. This time Abbott will
go direct to the district court for trial.
Abbott is out on 5000 bond. 1t Is
expected the case will be tried at
once.

Col, John s. Mosby, the famous
guerrilla leader OF the confederate

from Toronto, but it was that way Il
week ago when he wrote down to a
friend in Washington to tell the presi-
ident that he Colonel Mosby) was ~
years old, quite old enough not to go
to war, but Offering his services. Inc
colonel went to Toronto by invita-

There is practically war now, ne

there is great probability rf Its being
so. But it Is my opinion" went on
Colonel Mosby, that the Mexican peo-

Personally, have great contempt fol

United States ought to combine with
England and France and take over
Mexico and split in into three Zones

kEOkUk SCHOOL BOARD
THREATENS TO INVOKE
CoSSON LAW.
CLAIM LOCAL JUDGES
DO NOT ENFORCE STATUTE
Charged With Multiplying Intent Of Act
by Methods Of Prosecution Of Par
ents For Failure to Compel Children
to Attend School-PoIicemen "Cant
Find" Men.

Keokuk, May S.-That the compul
sorry education law in Keokuk is prac-
tically nullifed by the method used by
Judge W. L. Mcnamara Of the superior
court and James S. Burrows, justice OF
the peace. in handling cases brought
charge made by George T. Bunner,
truant officer. Mr.. Bunner appeared
before the school board and talked
about conditions surrounding the en-
forcement of the law. While no definite
action was taken by the board. the
sentiment Of the members was that the
board will back It's truant officer and
enforce the law, by invoking the Co.'S
son act If in no other way. With the
exception Of Chief Kenney. the police
are lax in handling warrants put in
their hands, Mr. Bunner also charged.
Mr.. Bunner charged that the law is
nearly nullided by the courts Of JUS
tice Burrows and Judge Mcnamara,
vino. he said. suspend sentences OF
parents found guilty and fail to pun
ish offenders after Bunner has filed
informations against them and they
have pleaded guilty. or have been con-
victed. Bunner also charged that in
the absence Of Chief Kenney, the police
officers are inefficient in arresting Of
tenders.
According to Mr.. Bunner, the plea
of the policeman is that he can not
find his man. In one case Bunner
cited the fact that when an excuse OF
this kind was made DR.. Hughes re-
called seeing the man named in the
informations going about the street
every day.
Bunner charged that children re-
NAMED out OF school until the parent
was arrested and this reduces the ef-
feet of the law. Several board MEM
bers in general corroborated Burners
claims. While no definite action was
taken, the board has determined to
back up its truant officer, and Will
take steps to have its orders and pol
icies under the compulsory education
law enforced. If it is necessary to
take the matter up with the attorney
general and invoke the Cosson act
the board members favored doing 1t.

in correspondence for some time with
Prof. P. G. Holden, the celebrated
Corn Man of Iowa, who is now direc-

of the International Harvester Com

details of the plan.
DR.. Holden will come to the state
with his corps of fifteen lectures and
assistants. They will go into county
to be met at the county seat with au-
tomobiles sufficient to transport the
lecturers to points in the surrounding
country where meetings have been
previously advertized. Each lecturer
will go to different point, delivering
two lectures during the day, making
thirty lectures in the county in one
day, delivered at different points
where they are available to all the
farmers. The lectures are free to all,
the only expense being the automo-
biles and the hotel bills, all salaries
being otherwise provided for.

DECLINES TO
ACT IN JIM FOX CASE
Sentenced to One Year i'm Peniten-

Man Last Fall.

Gov. Hayas has declined to take
any action in the case of Jim Fox,
who was convicted of assault to kill
Little Rock man in Lonoke county
last fall, and sentenced to year in
the penitentiary. This was done after
he had been tried and aquitted of
the murder of man named Phillips,
of Little Rock, on the same occasion
as that when he fired upon Phillips
companion as the latter was running
away from the scene of the trouble.
An application was made to the
governor Monday by counsel for Fox
for full pardon. The penitentiary
commission had, however, granted
Fox parole after he had served about
one third of the sentence, without
comforting with Gov. Hays. The gov
ernor, therefore told counsel for Fox
that he would not interfere in the case
at this time.
