yield to ordinary treatment. While the

usually prescribed do not restore the
patients normal condition.
There seems to be kind Of dyspepsia
caused by arrangement of the female
organism. While this appears to be the
same as ordinary indigestion it can be
relieved only by medicine which, be-

CHANGE TO HELP
HUMANE SOCIETY
Organization Trying to Send Three
Children to Home of Father
In Terre Haute,
Indiana.
FUNDS ARE ASKED FOR
Society Says Children Are Not Re-
ceivIna Right Kind Of Care
and Should be Sent
Away.

The Keokuk Humane society is
Offering chance to some kind heart
ed individual or individuals to assist
in a little work of charity that the
society feels must be done. Three
bright eyed little girls, aged three,
five and eleven, respectively, who, the
society states, are not living in the
best surroundings here, will be sent
to their father in Terre Haute, Ind,
If the necessary money can be
secured for railroad fare.
The mother Of the children died at
Little Rock, Arkansas, two and one
half years ago and since then they
have been living with a relative here.
The father has been sending money
here for their support, but, according
to the Humane society, they have
not received the best of care and it
is felt that they should be sent to
their father.
At the present time he is Ill and
out of work and cannot send for his
children, but his mother is ready to
give them good home. About SIS
or $50 is needed to send the children
to Terre Haute and the Humane So
ciety would be pleased IL local citi-
zens who are charitably inclined
would make contributions to this
fund, or advance the whole amount
if possible.
The aid should be either sent to
the office of the society at 9 South
Third street, or to the president, Bur-
ton Wilkinson.
