The Peru .Yi'wn nays: "At an early hour
.Saturday morning Lou Cook, the lock lender,
discovered a buggy and a dead horse in the
canal about two hundred yards east of Ihe
lock. A black slouch bat wm also found
floating on the water, and when this became
known it wa naturally supposed that some
one was drowned, and several different per
sons were nieiiiionel as the drowned one.
Later developments went to show that the
bone, a sorrel, and the buggy, in open one,
were seeu yesterday in the care of George
Conradi, a blacksmith iu the employ of the
Peru Plow Co. Further inquiry proved that
he had been a- Desper's saloon, at the Ship
piugsport bridge, last night. Relatives of
Conradi were notified by telephone, and a
search for the body was at once commenced,
though it was thought possible that he had
jumped or fallen out of the buggy, and the
horse had wandered into the canal. The
search was continued, however, and about
10 o'clock the body of the unfortunate man
was found He was about 40 years of age,
and had been a widower three years, his
three children and himself living with his
brother in law, Wm. Seepe "
The artesian well diggers of Granville,
says the Peru iY'ii', have packed up their
traps and skipped, having despaired of find
ing artesian water, oil, opium, or carbonated
hydrogen in paying quantities. They have
been working the well for about a year, and
the outlay will scarcely be equalled by the
income. The depth reached was 1,32 feet,
and the water lacked 100 feet of coming to
Ihe surface. Gas is constantly esoapiug, but
not in quantities sufficient to start a gas
boom. The operators are confident that they
passed through two good coul veins, ami, in
fact, I hey found everything but what they
were after water.

Dt'NfOM UK, Iowa. April IS. l(W7.
I'd t!ie Public: I had a stiokeof paralysis August 11,
lsV which paralreil Ihu left klde of my face, causing
my left eye to stand open, and my mouth to turn to the
ruclit side. I was In ureal niilu. sutlerliiK with nariilvtt-
cai pains all through my whole sjstem. I applied to
our best physician, with whom ( continue. 1 treatment
Pr tlve weeks, i was growing worse anu rutiiiiK nay
hv ilnv. Mv tdivslciaus told me that 1 could nut be
cured that I would soon have another stroke, which
would cause death. I was unable to rule out, but sent
my ilaiiKhler to Webster City, to telegraph to Council
lliiiffs lor a certain doctor. Mie learned that he had
left that city, however, ami she then consulted an old
friend as to what was best to do, who advised her to
apply to Ilr. Mrs. Keck, who had Jus' returned to her
brauch otllce at Ihe Wilson House, Webster City. Iowa.
Mrs Keck told my daughter It was a hopeless case, and'
wished to know why 1 did uot apply to home physicians,
whereupon in) flaiiKhtcr told her what I have above
staled. The doctor then replied that If my daiiKhter
would follow closelv the directions, she would treat
me. Kroni the first dose. I ever took of her medicines
I began to feel better, unit could s-e myself linyrovin
Two months later I took cold by exposing myself,
which brought tne to my bed five times worse than
ever b fore. This brought Dr. Keck to my bedside,
which was the first tlnieahe had ever seen me, although
she had treated me two months. The neighbors all said,
"If Ilr. Mrs, Keck could raise me she could raise the
dead." She raised me. and to-day. after six months'
treatment. I am able to do some work, oveisee all the
work on the farm, and, with the exceptlou of being a
little weak after such a siege of sickness, I consider
myself a well man. for which 1 thank Mrs. Keck. And
I would say to the tutTertng community that If you will
only apply to her, while there Is a spark of life left, she
wilfsave you if you follow her directions. Myslf and
family extend tur hi ar felt thanks to Dr. Mrs. Keck
for th' good she baa done mo. W. U. KO WLEV.

Dr. Mrs. Keck IH-ar Madam: I wish to stats that I
am still strong and well since you cured inn of asthma,
from which I suffered for many years. At times I could
uot lie down for several nights. It seemed I could nev
er get my breath again. I waa very thin In flesh and
my lungs were diseased. I coughed and raised a great
deal. My heart troubled me very badly. I suffered very
much with catarrh, and could not smell or taste any
thing. In fact. I waa so miserable we did not think 1
ever could recover. After 1 began your treatment I
seemed to get worse for a time, as you aald I would,
but by following your advice and taklngyour medicines
correctly, yoa cured me. And now I am able to work
hard every day. and have been slice you pronounced
me well, which waa six years ago. I have never had
any return of the asthma or catarrh, although exposed
to never col ils very often, and my sense of smell and
taste la now good. I will come to see you at Cedar Rap
ids and bring with me soiueof my friends who need your
aid. 1 now welgn loo pounus. a gam oi -iu pouuus siucc

To the Public: I hail pisir health for eight years.
Waa a great sufferer from heart disease; also from se
rious liver and kidney trouble and enlarged spleen,
with a lump on spleen as large as a cup ai,d very pain
ful. There were severe pains, also, in my shoulders
and chest, aud In fact all over me. so I could not bear
them without a plaster, 1 had uitflculty In breathing.
I could not wora much, and for mouths not at all. 1
did Uot eat III day tune, even when exercising, but
had weakening ulghl-aweata. 1 hail three doctors, aud
hail traveled for mv health, spending some mouths at
Pueblo and Colorado Spring., but I only grew worse
until I emp.oyed Dr. Mrs. Keck. I'n.ler her treatment
1 have liceu gieatly beneilied. Mv night-sweats wers
soon overcome, and thu summer I could sweat natural
ly when t exercised, the tlrst for many years. My
pains re gone, the lump is all gone, sud I sin able to
work. In tact, I feel well. Mrs. Keck has done far
more than 1 expected, after I had tried elsewhere for
eight years and was discouraged. I tske pleasure to
highly recommending her. W. 8. JOHNSON.
