STOMACH DISTRESS.
And all Misery from Indigestion
Vanishes Five Minutes Later.
Every family here ought to keep
some Diapepsin in the house, as any
one of you may have an attack of indi
gestion or stomach trouble at any time
day or night.
This harmless peparation will digest
anything you eat and overcome a sour
stomach five minutes afterwards.
If your meals don't tempt you, or
what little you do eat seems to fill you
or lays like a lump of lead in your
stomach, or if you have heartburn, that
is a sign of Indigestion.
Ask your Pharmacist for a 50-cent
case of Pape's Diapepsin and take one
triangle after supper tonight. There
will be no sour risings, no belchings of
undigested food mixed with acid, no
stomach gas or heartburn, fullness or
heavy feeling in the stomach, nausea,
debilitating headaches, dizziness or in
ternal griping. This will all go, and be
sides, there will be no sour food left
breath with nauseous oders.
Pape's Diapepsin is a certain cure for
all stomach misery, because it will take
hold of your food and digest it just the
same as if your stomach wasn't there.
Actual, prompt relief for all yonr
stomach misery is at your pharmacist,
waiting for you.
These large 50-cent cases contain
more than sufficient to cure a case of
dispepsia or indigestion.

DECATUR CITY,
MAY ESCAPE TAXATION.
By Planting Fruit or Forest Trees
On Land.
The last general assembly enacted a
measure to encourage the people of the
state of Iowa to grow trees both fruit
and forest trees. This is one of the
Roosevelt ideas you know and the legis
lature got in with him and put the state
of Iowa in the lead for conserving the
forests of the nation.
Chapter 52 enacted by the last legis
lature provided that if you have a tim
ber lot on your land of at least two
aores in continuous area you may have
it "reserved" and that it will be assess
ed in that event at only one dollar per
acre and that it may continue as such
so long as you keep the cattle, horses,
mules, sheep, goats and hogs out of it.
Provided that in all events that the
reservation shall have at least two
hund' ed trees per acre and that they
shall not be willows, box elders, soft
maple, cotton wood and other poplars,
except that box elder and soft maple
may be used as nurse trees in a young
forest reservation.
If you wish to see the statute it\ full
get a 1907 supplement to the code and
turn to page 293 and read section 1400
c-d-e-f-g-h-i-j-k-l-m-n-o. You will then
be fully informed as to the provisions.
The fruit tree reservation may be one
acre in area and not more than five and
may not be exempt from taxation (or
more than eight years, but no farm
buildings may be included in the reser
vation. You may use the fruit tree
reservation for a chicken lot but not
for any other purpose except for po
tatoes or hay, etc.
We do not believe this statute will
greatly encourage the growing of forest
trees as the grass in all the forest area
of this county is worth more than the
taxes would amount to in any year.
The fruit tree exemption should be
known by the people of the county that
they may have that much encourage
ment to put out fruit trees. If the
people of this county are interested in
the growing of forest trees they should
ask their legislator to have the forest
tree reservation part amended so that
existing forest tree reservations might
be pastured so long as they contained
200 original trees of ten or more years
growth. This would actually conserve
the forests and- would be worth the
while of the people of the state.
A Religious Author's Statement.
For several years I was afflicted with
kidney trouble and last winter I was
suddenly stricken with a severe pain in
my kidneys and was confined to bed
eight days unable to get up without
assistance. My urine contained a thick
white sediment and I passed same fre
quently day and night. I commenced
taking Foley's Kidney Remedy, and the
pain gradually abated and finally ceas
ed and my urine became normal. I
abeerfully recommend Foley's Kidney
Remedy. Bell & Robinson.
Mr. Millard Sutherland returned to
his home at Garden Grove, Iowa, Satur
day for a few days visit with his family.
He returned yesterday and resumed his
work for the Cainsville Mill Company.
Mr. Sutherland is a millwright and is
preparing the big timbers for tho fore
bay, work on which is being pushed as
rapidly as tho wfeather will permit.
The company has lately purchased a
large water-wheel of about 80 horse
power which is expected to arrive soon.
The company has. another wheel of
about 00 horse power, so that when
both are in position they will have
power to' burn so to speak. Carpenters
are at work in the building fitting it up
in good shape for the transaction of a
general milling business.—Cainsville

HOME CURE FOB ECZEMA.
Oil of Wlntergreen, Thymol..
Glycerine, Etc., Used as a/V*
Simple Wash.
It really seems strange that so many
people suffer year in and year out with,
eczema, when it is now no longer a
secret that oil of wintergreen mixed
with thymol, glycerine, etc., makes a
wash that is bound to cure.
Old, obstinate cases, it is true, can
not be cured in a few days, but there is
absolutely no sufferer from eczema who
ever used this simple wash and did not
find immediately that wonderfully sooth
ing, calm, cool sensation that comes
when the itch is taken away. Instantly
upon applying a few drops of the wash
the remedy takes effcct, the itch is al
layed. There is no need of experiment
—the patient knows at once.
Instead of trying to compound the
oil of wintergreen, thymol, glyoerine
etc., in the right proportions ourselves,
we are using a prescription whicn is
universally found the most effective.
It is known as the D. D. D. Prescription,
or oil of Wintergreen Compound. It is
made by the D. D. D. Co., of Chicago, and
our long experience with the remedy
has given us great confidence in its
merits. L. P. Van Werden, Leon, Iowa.
The hen that has just laid an egg
cackles almost as much as a woman who
has just told a secret.
