FEW WE'D TEN
YEARS PART

DES MONIES, March 1 n.N.S1.-
If the modern Mr.. and Mrs. stay
out of the divorce court for 10
years. they probably will keep out
of 1t for good and all.
So figures N. L. McLaren of the
division of vital statistics of the
Iowa State department of health.
And McLaren has been doing quite
a little research work in the mrtter
of divorce and its causes.
"Of 4,112 divorces granted in
Iowa during a single year" said
McLaren today. 1854 were to par.
ties who had lived together less
than 10 years.
Eight hundred and twenty-three
to 10 years; 2O3 TO those welded
from 90 to "a years. and 237 to
those living together more than
IS years"
1t usually was the husband who
was "in wrong" DEGREES were
awarded to 5000 women and to
912 men. McLaren revealed.
Most OF the DEGREES granted to
wives were for "cruel and inhuman
treatment" That apparently GOV.
cred a multitude of sins. 1t often
was used to conceal the real com"
plants against the erring spouses,
according to McLaren. Divorces
were given 2,279 women on this
ground

my experience, says Mr.. Walker.
MY stomach was awfully weak for
years, could eat very few things
without suffering terrible gas pains.
Finally getting to the point / could
not even drink water, 1 realized
my condition was getting serious
and would have to quit work unless
I found something to improve my
health. There were numbers of
things recommended me, but none
brought but little results, and
continued to get worse. Some
months ago a friend and neighbor
who had used Millers Herb Extract
persuaded me to try it! Well, after
just few doses felt much better
and by the time / had taken one
bottle ii was as If miracle had
taken place. My appetite improved
and I began eating things l was
actually scared to look at before.

over again. My little boy and wife
also use this wonderful medicine,
and we all keep in the best of
health by its use. Anyone suffer.

You don't need any pills with
this medicine; it's a real medicine

 While, as pointed out, the best farming land contains birch, there are large areas so situated that they would not be required by the settler, at least, for many years. 1t is from these areas that timber and pulpwood organizations may secure raw material by purchase, from the government, while at the same time purchase additional timber from settlers.
