NEW CH|ROPRACTOR
LOCATED HERE
Audubon, Iowa.

fANuNuOA, HOWd.
Drs. Schoonover and Schoonover
Chiropractors, arrived in Extra,
Friday of last week and have taken
over the practice of Chiropractor
Kingsbury with offices over the
Palace Theatre.
DR.. and Mrs. Schoonover say they
like our little city, and expect to
remain here permanently, for the
fact that the public are becoming.
more familiar with the merits of
the science of Chiropractic, and
realize that Chiropractic adjust
ments get most surprising quick re-
suits on acute diseases, and results
on chronic Diseases, when every
thing else fails.
Ut is matter of fact that if
children we're taken to the Chiro-
practor in cases of diseased tonsils,
and adenoids, there would be no
operatiosn on children for such
diseases.
A large tonsil does not necesSar-
lily mean diseased tonsils, any more
than small ones. The tonsil may
be partly enlarged, and extend
far down into the pharnyx, or be
buried deep into the palatine re-
giIon and yet not Interfere with the
well-bsing of the individual.
The tonsils are doing no harm.
Why not let them alone? The
change in anatomical relations after
operation is often so great that thei
function is crippled more after
their complete removal than it was
before, and often a buried tonsil"
is followed by the burial of a
patient.
DR.. Schoonover knows from ex-
perience while at the Palmer
School of Chircpractic, at Daven-
port, that the so-calfed dreaded
disease of typhoid was never. con
sidered so by the Chiropractor. In
stead Of letting the disease run its
course, and the patient becoming
so emaciated that their Life hangs
in balance between life and
death, the ChiToTractor proceeds
to remove the cause of the fever,
and in the majority of cases the
fever sufsides within few hours.
Some say THAT would not do to
reduce a fever so quickly Well
that might be true if the Chiro-
practor was using anything but
natures method of doing this But
by removing the pressure on the
nerves that are causing this con-
dition, it merely allows nature to
proceed with it's work, and elimi-
nate and eNcrete the poisonous
substances which have accumulated
in the bowels.
Some people seem to be preju-
diced against Ch:rcpractic, but AFT
ter those people try it and are
convinced as to it's merits. they are
always the best boosters.
So you who ere in doubt as to
the worth of this science, give it
trial when in need of health,
and YOU too will become ONE of
the boosters.
M. o. Kingsbury.

MOVE FOR PEACE
WILL BE FOR ALL.
If President Wilson Takes Action, 1t
viii Not be for Any One
Nation.

WASHINGTON, May 25.-When
President Wilson moves for peace in
the great European war he will not
act on behalf of any one nation Or
even one family Of nations, but In be-
half of all Europe.
This point of view, outlined by the
president to callers at the white house
today, may constitute the key note of
the address he will deliver before the
League to Enforce Peace Saturday
night.
He discussed his views rather freely
today and indicated clearly that he is
bastng his position upon vast
amount of information received from
many sources bearing on the issue.
If the president feels there Is any
thing that would forecast immediate
action for peace, he did not disclose
it. He said merely that when peace
comes, it must be brought about to
the benefit of no one nation, but for
the good of all.
The president today discussed with
Representative Hensley of Missouri, a
resolution providing for the calling
into conference of the nations of the
" orld for the purpose of preventing a
recurrence of the war. 1t is under
stood the president is favorable to
such a plan.

COURT ROOM, WAUKEGAN, Ill,
May 25.-The task Of selecting
jury to try VIII Orpet for Marian
Lambert's murder, dragged slowly

hundred and twenty-six men had
been questioned and examined for
Jury service when court opened to-
day and only four Jurors from the
first panel permanently accepted.
Although Judge Charles H. Don
nelly, piqued by distorted publicity
given the trial. had imposed a ban of
silence on defense and state, it was
learned toda--- that the defense has
summoned as witnesses most of the
witnesses also summoned by the
state.

EXHAUSTED TODAY.

6\VAOSSEO sOOSNSs
LONDON, May 25.-Utter exhaus-
tion Of the human clements In two
great fighting machines, brought q
IuIl In the titanic struggle around
verdun early today.
The frIghtfuI slaughter around Fort
Douaumont came to . halt last night
with the fort again In German hands.
During the night the French made no
effort to wrest the position from the
hands Of the leonqusrina 6avarlans.
Minor sighting occurred south and
southwest Of the fortress late yester-
day In which Berlin claims, captures
Of trench positions In the Haudromont
quarry and near cumIeres village
where the French announce a great
advance. But on the main fronts Of
Fort Douaumont and the Hill 3o4 posi-
tion northwest Of verdun, the battered
armies rested In their trenches
throughout the night. There was no
let-up, however, In the tremendous
struggle between German and French
artillery. On both banks Of the
Meuse the cannonading continued

Will Possibly be Completed
and Justice Done, Before
Orpet Jury is Secured.

NEW YORK, May 2.-The struggle
to save DR.. Arthur Warren Waite,
confessed poisoner of his father-in-
law and mother-in-law, Mr.. and Mrs.
John e. Peck, Grand Rapids, Mich,
from the blighting current Of the cleo
trio chair, started in court today with
the defense secrets practically sewed
up in the minds Of the defense attor-
neys. Insanity will be it's basis and
in that insanity the man from Egypt"
will figure, perhaps largely. The de-
tense will probably seek to prove that
the defendants sinister shadow was
the real murderer and that in the
hands of the shadow, the defendant
was as helpless as child.
If DIR. Waite is found guilty, 1t Will
be because of his entanglements with
two women and the suspicious OF a
third. His wife, his sweetheart and
friend are the three who yesterday
gave their smashing testimony against
him.
1t was Mrs. Clara Louise Peck
Waite, his wife, who in firm voice
told the Jury the things in the doctor
life which indicated he had designs
on the Peck fortune and of the things
which were indicative that he would
try for it by poison.
1t was Elizabeth C. Hardwick, "a,
school teacher whose suspicious were
aroused by the sudden taking Off OF
Peck. Her suspicious ended in the
sending of telegram which started
the investigation which has culm1n-
ated in the trial.
It was Mrs Margaret Horton who
told the jury that DR.. Waite trusted
her and confessed to her that he had
poisoned Peck. She told the jury:
That she had loved DR.. Waite.
That once she would have given
every penny she could earn to save
him.
That Dr. Waite said to her after
The crime was discovered, but before
his arrest, 'If know you still love
me, / will make fight for my hfe.'
That after the doctor had been
locked up she begged for permission
70 see him.
That her friendship with the doctor
was pure and platonic."
And then calmly and without
tremor, betrayed him, saying he had
confessed to her the murder by
0easons of John z. Peck.

the privilege of sitting in this council
and helping to bring JOY and harmony
to the women of the world"
Improvement of rural life, Ameri-
canization of the immigrant, cultiva-
t1on of the true pan-American spirit,
and survey of the influence exerted
by moving pictures were among the
topics for consideration of the feier-
alton submitted by Mrs. Pennypacker.
The president warned club women
not to support legislation unless it
was recommended by the federation
women and their activities being ex-
plotted.

sions, at which Mrs Pennypacker
