Jurisprudence mad
fbis t',,c1anles H. Allen suffered for
years with rheumatism. Many times
this terrible disease left him help
less and unable to work
He finally decided, after years of
ceaseless study, that no one can be
free from rheumatism until the ac-
c,lInulated impurities, commonly cali
ed uric acid deposits, were dissolved
in the joints and muscles and ex-
PEELED from the body.
With this idea in mind he con-
suited physicians, made experiments
and finally compounded a prescrip-
ton that quickly and completely ban
ished every sign and symptom OF
rheumatism from his system
He freely gave his discovery to
others, who took it, with what might
be called marvellous success. After
years Of urging he decided to let suf-
ferers everywhere know about his
discovery through the newspapers
Wilkinson & Co. have been appointed
agents for Allenrhu in THE vicinity
with the understanding that they will
freely return the purchase money on
the first two bottles to all who state
they received no benefit.

LUMBER
MAY GO UP
Iowa Lumber Dealer Urges House
builders to Take Advantage of
Opportunities Offered Now
White Price ie Low.

The following story on lumber mar
ket in Iowa is taken from the Cedar
Rapids Republican:
/ Ii the public is waiting to build
when lumber drops, its wait Is ended,
! said lumber man today.
In April lumber started a gentle
price slide from the exceedingly high
pitch of February gradually increas-
ing velocity to the bottom OF the slide
today. A total drop for common
lumber Of about 20 per cent wholesale.
! At their highest point retail prices
in Cedar Rapids were TO- to LIB per
cent lower than the prices in other
Iowa towns and such lumber centers
as Chicago, Kansas City and Omaha.
! A forest service representative who
called on local dealers noted this fact
+, with surprise and incorporated it in
his report
/ Watchful waiting on the lumber
market will not pay the home build
ers now. NO one can Predict to a
! certainty what conditions may be
later but there is every evidence OF
Il somewhat higher lumber price in the
near future
! Factors which will control lumber
prices may be briefly stated:
e.. l. Stocks at mills are reported
good, but stocks in retail yards are
short and need sorting up-espec1ally
true Of country yards where biggest
buying is expected.
2. Transportation difficulties are
worst ever experienced. Cars almost
impossible to get-and will be more
so now that interstate commerce
commission order of 100 per cent cars
to coal mines is in force and box cars
are demanded by grain shippers.
Lumber now requires 2 to 8 times as
long in coming from either the south
or west.
3. Transit cars are practically a
thing of the past as a source of quick
supply.
A. Need for greater grain storage
forced by transportation difficulties
increases demand for lumber in coun-
try and elevator districts.
5-Railroad buying Of lumber is
lust beginning and these orders are 10
lbe given preference both as to trans
portation and shipment
! 6. Building already done here and
elsewhere is no more than tooth
nick in, a. waste basket compared to
the imperative needs for homes every
where
7. Mills are unable to buy logs at
less money than the high point Of 70
to "a per thousand. Loggers are
shutting down rather than sell for
less. Mill labor has seen no reduction
from II cents per hour for common
labor. Cost of production to mills is
therefore not cent lower.
s. The annual July shut down of
coast mills is to- be heightened this
year by several weeks. Single mills
have been shutting down one by one
as they use up supply of logs already
bought Lack of cars for shipments,
and market below cost of production
have forced these shut downs.
9. Freight advances Of at least l
per cent are certain-this means at
least 10 per cent advance in lumber.
so per cent of cost OF lumber is
freight and labor-two factors no one
expectsIto drop in price.
These factors all point to higher
lumber prices. There is no evidence
lumber buyers will profit by waiting

Should the balloting for a gtber-
material nominee run along for num-
her of roll calls, or deadlock result,
Rawson's plans for an old-fashloned
convention will be augmented by the
natural progress of the convention
affairs. 1t is the plan of the replb-
licans to out-general the democrats
in preparation and adoption of state
platform, and for this reason Rawson
and the state central committee had
the republicans slated to convene
nine days ahead of the democratic
state convention.
Lieutenant Governor Moore is in
clined to look with a sLHile upon pre-
convention gossip that says Fred
Garfield, of the State Federation of
Labor stands as the possible senator
Iial appointee. The lieutenant COVER
nor says that in Linn county the at
fairs and estate of no man are placed
in the hands of an administrator until
the man has actually taken up the
Journey over the Long, Long Trail"
For that reason he makes no comment
upon possible senatorial succession.

The Kendall Cummins supporters
say that Henry C. Wallace of Wal

of the convention. Rawson and the

to WELD it. Wallace would also be
acceptable ia Havner and Deems, it is
believed.

yore, before the primary law came in

that Kendall will be of greater help to
Senator Cummins than Lieutenant
Governor Moore.
Charles A. Rawson, chairman of the
state committee, has requested all
Iowa congressman to be present at
the state convention. Rawson and the
committee will endeavor to stage a
convention that smacks of years gone
by. There will be pictures of Senator
Warren G. Harding, the presidential
nominee, and his running mate, Cal

Coliseum decorations. Speakers will
dwell at length upon the strength OF
the national ticket and will endeavor
to inject old-time pep and ginger into
