Incident Of the War.

Jefferson, Oct. 9.-Cleo Whitson, who
arrived this week from Tabor. AL
berta, Canada, reports having had a
perilous time getting across the bor-
der, due to desire on the part of the
Canadian government 10 hold his
horses in that country. Since the war
in Europe commenced Canada has
been attempting TO conserve the horse
supply, altho not desiring to purchase
horses unless absolutely up to saddle
horse requirements. Mr.. Whitson's
horses were not of the kind wanted
by the government at this time. but,
ting away. After trying 20 sell the two
teams. and not being able to even get
all offer for them. he decided to bring
them back to Iowa. They are horses
for which he was offered $3.50 apiece
when he went there three years ago.
Knowing that the Canadian govern
ment would probably register an OBJ
lection to his taking them out Of the
purchase he decided to drive from his

Accordingly he came to the division
at Sweetgrass, Mont, town which
lies partly in the Dominion. the part
on the Canadian side Of the street be-
ing called Coutts. Here the Canadian
Pacific ends at Coutts and the Great
Northern commences in Sweetgrass.
The main street Of the town is the in

into Coutts and then promptly across
into Sweetgrass. He had his horses
examined for entry. proper certificates
in hand. and then loaded into Great
Northern car.
At this juncture he was notified by
the Canadian customs house to appear
at headquarters. He went over and
they informed him he could not take
his horses into America. and must stu
consider himself resident Of Canada
He replied only with prudent answers
not counting any excuse for arrest
and after leaving the Canadian office
crossed again to the American custom
house, where he laid his case before
, the consul. AS Mr.. Whitson had never
been naturalized in Canada the United
States official informed him that as
had no jurisdiction over either him OF
his horses.

Des Moines, Oct 9.-Henry Saber-
con, corporation clerk. had put up to
him yesterday a query which suggests
again the great need of blue sky leg
islation in the state. and it shows what
foolish things can be worked off on
the public.
1t was a query as to whether or not
a certain wheat company" ostersibly
organized to exploit wheat lands IN
one Of the Canadian provinces. could
sell its coupon certificates in Iowa.
The prospectus" contained a glowing
account Of what wonders would be ac-
complished if only one dollar was
doubled each year for twenty years,
and also some references to the IN
evitable immense increase in value OF
Canadian lands.
A coupon" was enclosed. 1t seemed
to contemplate investment OF 81 in
something or other, with % cents adj
ditional for expense. All It promised
was that after the lapse of twenty
years the owner would have the right
10 examine the DOCKS VI Tic CoiApdhs
to ascertain if any profits had been
made with the dollar and II so the orig
inal owners Of the certificate might
have half Of such profits. But there
was a great deal about the coupon to
suggest other aliuring things. There
was not even a promise to keep the
dollar or to invest 1t or do anything
with IL.
The only way company could be
barred from Offering for sale such
coupon would be under the general
statute Of frauds. until the courts lift,
the Nd off the blue sky law. The
scheme Is such transparent fraud
that 1t would seem incredible that any
one could be found in Iowa to bite
on it.
Examination Of class of forty ap-
eicants for bar admission was COM
pleted by the board yesterday with an
all day oral quiz. One Of the oddities
of Iowa law Is that in regard to adj
mission OF q person to practice law it
is required that he be examined orally.
while as to admission to practice med
icine It is forbidden that he should be
examined orally.

Jesus taught and practised. Chris
tan Science stands ready to come to

tiCn Of Jesus teachings which will
result in blessings such as they have
never before believed possible. Those
who have not read the New Tesla
ment recently, will do we'll to do so.
Let me ask them to read at least one
Of the gospels, alto the book of the
Acts of the Apostles, which record
the healing done by Christ Jesus and
his followers of that day, and which
are verified by the works Of Christian
Science today.
The fact that Christian Scientists
do not yet do all the wonderful works
that Jesus did. is cause for regret,
but net for disbursement or criti-
cism. We are glad that Jesus work
proves Christian Science to be true,
and that Mrs. Eddy rediscovered the
Science of Christian healing and has
given it to the world. This healing
is possible in proportion to our spir-
itual understanding.

In closing, let me recommend that

the arguments of suffering or sin, 1t
is well to stop a moment and think;
we'll to know that they do not come
from God, that He does ont cause or
support them, therefore they are not

them or be governed by them. When
we recognize disease as mental and

we begin to experience harmony
