ll,46O. "a bill authorizing payment Of
the claim Of Edwin c. Foster OF
Waterloo, Iowa"
This is without doubt the oldest
claim in all history. While the prin-
cipal amount involved is but $500, the
interest now amounts to upwards OF
$500, 900.
An ancestor of Mr.. Fosters 1873
years ago, when the budding United
states needed coin badly, loaned Uncle
at per cent annually. The money
was loaned by Nehemiah Hubbard ESQ.,,
and receipts acknowledging the debt
was given to Mr.. Hubbard Jan. TO-
1888, signed by sam Hellesas, probably
treasurer for the colonies, and counter
signed by I. Lawrence, commissioner.
The receipt later fell into the hands
of Mr.. Foster, who is q deputy as
SCISSOR in Waterloo.
The bill introduced by Mr.. Sweet
directs the secretary OF the treasurer
be authorized to pay out of any
money not otherwise appropriated to
Edwin c. Foster OF Waterloo. Iowa,

INVENTION OF DAVENPORT MEN
MAY REvoLuTIoNizE
.. METHODS.
ORDINARY CURRENT WILL
GENERATE MUCH POWER
Corporation Formed to Manufacture
Wheels and to Develop Power
Proieets-claim They Can Harness
Every Stream in United States at
Small Expense.

Davenport, July l0--With the inten-
ton os eventually turning every
stream OF consequence on the Ameri-
can continent into a yeritable gold
mine. the Northern Power company
tday filed articles OF incorporation at
the court house.
The incorporation is built upon the
invention of two Davenport men Of a
water wheel that is already focusing
the attention of big investors. II the
wheel will do small part OF what is
claimed for 1t, the inventors are as
good as millionaires and they will
launch one OF the greatest inventions
since Archimedes, the geometrican OF
ancient Syracuse. lifted his enemies
ships out OF the water.
The invention OF Milan A. Ellis and
George c. Week Is a water wheel
built along entirely new methods and
which is propelled by the natural cur
rent of the stream The strength of
the spiral wheel lies in the fact that
its four curved blades are so adjusted
that every blade is struck full by the
water at the same time while the dead
water is carried away without the re-
sistance offered in the best types OF
water wheels now in use.
The machine is to be the first sue
cessful attempt to harness the big
streams of the continent and get the
full energy and pulling force Of the
current without dams for supplying
light and power.
The company has been capitalized
at 800, 600, the stock being divided in
to shares OF the par value Of 800 each.
A full-sized wheel is to be embedded
in a 10 x 10 cement box at the bottom
of the Mississippi river. 1t is conf
IDENTIFY believed that the wheel will
generate an energy equivalent TO ovu
horsepower altho the company has
modestly made no claims as yet above
so orse-power. OF this amount OF
energy they are absolutely certain, as
proven by models of the machine. Ten
horsepower is sufficient to develop
electric light.
What a wheel capable OF generating
such power will accomplish must be
left to the imagination. Macyhtnes
embedded in the river in tandem drive
would move every wheel in Davenport
and for that matter in the entire
country.
The officers Of the company are
Milan A. Ellis, president; George c.
Week, vice president and treasurer and
Andrew l. Chezem, secretary. Mr..
Chezem acted as attorney for the in
ventors in securing the patent

WAR COST U. S. THIRTY BILLION.
Secretary Glass Gives Out Estimates
COVERING June 80.

Covering June 80.
Washington, July lo.-The war cost
the United States $50, 100000 up to
June so, 1919.
Secretary Glass made this estimate
in submitting to the congressional ap-
preparations committees the prelimin-
airy statements of the treasury on the
condition of the nations finances. he
arrived at the estimate by subtract
ing the average peacetime expenses
for the same length of time. at the
rate of $1,000. oo0, 900 annually. from
the total expenditures. So. $4,000. 900,
during the war.
Taxes and other revenues than bor-
howed money took care Of ss,3S4,0o0.-
900, or about 29 per cent, OF the war
cost. The remainder came from Lib
saving stamps. t...
Further issues Of bonds, Mr.. Glass
said, will not be necessary before the
maturity or redemption OF the Victory
notes." which have four years to run.
While it is impossible to estimate the
expenses to be incurred during the
present fiscal year. the secretary Is con-
fident that treasury certificates sup
plenented by short term notes VIII
provide the necessary funds to pay the
governments debts.
Il need scarcely to say" the secre-,
tary added, that the realization or
these sanguine expectations is contin-
gent upon the practice OF the mose
rigid economy by the government and
the continuance of ample revenues
from taxation.
Such a course, accompanied by tho
practice of sober economy and visa
investment by our people and strict
avoidance Of waste and speculation
will make it possible for the American
people to recpond to the demands to
be made upon them privately for cap-
ita land credit by the nations OF Eu-

For Itching Torture

There is one remedy that seldom fails
to stop itching torture and relieve skin
irritation and that makes the skin soft,
clear and healthy. .
{. Any druggist can supply you with
zemo, which generally overcomes all
skin diseases. Acne, eczema, itch, PIN
pies, rashes, blackheads, in most cases
give way to zemo. Frequently, minor
klemishes disappear overnight. Itching
usually stops instantly. Zemo is a safe.
antiseptic liquid, clean, easy to use and
dependable. 1t costs only 35c; an extra
large bottle, Sl0O. 1t will not stain, is
not greasy or sticky and is positively
safe for tender, sensitive skins.

The Whole Secret of
A Better Tire
Simply a Matter of the Makers Policies

To ascertain what each maker
offers one must analyze and test
some 200 tires-as our Laboratories
have done. .
Then it Is a matter of Combining
the best features and building ac7
cording to the highest. standards
Once you Try Brunswick You,
will understand how we have built
model tires, regardlessfof factory
expense. q
Yet Brunswick Tires cost you the
same as other hhe-type tires Our
saving IS on selling cost, through
our nationwide organization.
We realize that you expect more,
from Brunswicks, and we assure
you that you get it. ONE Bruns-
wick win tell you the story. !
And then you'll want ALL
Bruuswicks. No other tire, you'll
agree, gives 20 much for your~
money.
Evening times-Republican. [volume] (Marshalltown, Iowa) 1890-1923, 1919-07-10

This you will realize-once you
try a Brunswick-that super-ure
is possible only when the name
certihes that the maker is follow
ing the highest standards.
> For tire making is chiefly mat
ter of standards and policies
plus care. Any maker can build
good tire if he cares to pay per-
fection's price.
All men know Brunswick stand
ards, for Brunswick products have
been famous for "a years.
Formulas, fabrics and standards
vary vastly in cost. Reinforce
ments, plies and thickness are a
matter of expense. And these vari-
atoms affect endurance. It rests
with the maker how far he wishes
to go-how much he can afford
to give.
For there are no secrets nor pat
ents to hold one back.
