STACK TO RECEIVE
$4,000 FOR DAMAGES

Julius STACK has agreed to accept
$4,000 from the city of Moline for
damages that resulted to his green
house on Sixth avenue and Twenty
seventh street from floods.
Time and time again the Stack
greenhouse has been flooded and
heavy loss has resulted each time.
The city made several attempts to
divert the water from its path, but
nature refused to be baked and the
next storm would again flood the
greenhouse and surrounding proper
ty. This year a retaining wall prob
ably will be built about the place.
Mr.. Stack finally filed several suits
against the city, the total amount Of
damages asked being 100000. After
conference today, however. he and
his attorneys agreed to settle for &c.
600, which the city council feels is a
very fair settlement This will not
affect Mr.. Stacks suit against the
street car company, it is understood.

GET RID OF HUMORS
AND AVOID DISEASE

Humors in the blood cause internal
arrangements that affect the whole
system. as well as p!mples, boils and
other eruptions. They affect all the
organs and functions. membranes and
tissues, and are directly responsible FOR
tho readiness with which some people
contract disease.

other medicine In eNpelling humors
and removing their inward and out
ward effects. 1t Is distinguished for
its thoroughness in purifying the
