A Typical American Girl, -in . J. G. Phelps Stokes, the noted so­

ciologist, praised in an address the democratic and unsnobbish spirit of the typical American girl.

"A typical American girl," he said, "dined one night in London at Prince's. During the concert that followed the dinner the girl noticed a tali, handsome man, and said:

"'Who is that gentleman over there?" '^Her host, an Englishman, frowned

and replied: "'Gentleman? Gentleman, indeed!

Why, that is a lord—Lord Seymour, of Somerset."

"The American girl smiled and said calmly:

" <But I suppose some of -them are gentlemen sometimes.'" ' i - , ,

M ^ ? ' 5 Des Moines, July 16.—Judge E. M.

Carr of Manchester has offered to give the state forty acres of land, known as the Debii's backbone, if the board of control will locate the state hospi­tal for consumptives thereon.

The proposition is the best one which the board of control has received.' Ad­ditional land contiguous to the- land is offered at a reasonable price. The lo­cation is perfectly ideal, the best by far that the board has inspected. The only drj^Wtaek is the lack of railroad connection, but correspondence is be­ing carried on with a view to adjusting this difficulty, and It will be satisfac­torily adjusted, it is believed.

The Debil's backbone is said to pro-sent the most beautiful scenery in tne west. Judge Carr and others de-V.*rs that there is nothing in the Rocky Mountains which compares with 1'.. The members of the .board of control are enthusiastic in depicting the grandeur of the scenery. The land has been used for years as a park and Pro­fessor Macbride and other men famil­iar with it have long advocated that it be purchased for a state park site.

The property is located north fronj Manchester and consists of a high ta­ble land around the rocky base of which runs the- Maquoketa river. Many of these backbones are found In Iowa, notably one In Madison county and one in Jackson county, but the one north of Manchester is said to present many features which make it far more beau­tiful than any of the others. It is ac­cessible and is in constant use for pic­nic parties and that sort of thing. The board of control is satisfied that it would be an ideal place for the state hospital for consumptives. h.i

Colfax Peaceful. >; The board of control visited the little

city of Colfax last week to Inspect the ground which has been proposed as a site for the hospital for consumptives, being the old spring hotel upon the hllls 'east of the city.

Thevboard did not advertise Its visit to Colfax. It did not visit the city sur­reptitiously, however. It was not met With a mob, and came to the conclu­sion that the town is not so bitterly opposed to the location of the proposed institution there as has been indicated by some of the correspondence and newspaper publications.

•The inaccessibility of the site at Col­fax is the thing which deters the board from selecting it.

The board of control is amazed that

Sire is opposition at any point to the-atlb'n of the hospital. Opposition,

has arisen even at Iowa City, as well: as at Colfax and a Lamont newspaper has bitterly assailed Judge Carr for his. offer of forty acres of land to the state for the location of the hospital north of Manchester.

'No Danger in Location. The fact is that the hospitii will be

the most sanitary and healthful spot in the community. There will not be half the danger of catching consump- j tion at the state hospital for tubercular j phtients as there is in any ordinary j depot or other public place in the town j

here it is located. j This is for the reason that the pa- I

tients follow the rules of sanitation in lonitrol of the disease. In the east where the hospitals pre

not so uncommon the people open their houses to the patients. They are tak>n into private homes as boarders with perfect safety, and the people throw open their homes to them on all occa­sions. This is because they do observe lh<» rules of sanitation and there is no danger of infection from them.

Of course the subject is a new one in this country but the board of con­trol has been surprised that physicians have been enlisted to oppose the loca­tion of the hospital at different points. One business man is quoted at one city which has been considered by th=i board, as saying that he will remove from the town and take all his money with him if the hospital is located within six miles of the community. The board of control feels that this sort of misunderstanding w411 soon give way to a, perfect understanding.

fSffl Busy Days of Plucky Girl,|gi| A Pniladelphia girl, Miss Bdna May-

berry, just tur.ied 21, enjoys the dis­tinction of a three-time heroine. With­in ten days Miss Maybeiry saved a child from a trolley car, stopped a runaway horse and shot a dog sup­posed to be suffering from rabies.

She shooting of the mad dog was •the most exciting of the young wom­an's several adventures. There was a reign of terror in Oiney because of a supposedly mad dog which das dash­ing about the streets snapping at pe­destrians and horses. Just before noon Miss Mayberry was riding on heii favorite horse on' Wyoming avenue, when she heard cries of "mad dog!" behind her. Almost before she could turn a large yellow dog overtook her horse, snapped at it and then started down the road, frothing at the mouth and yelping.

Miss Mayberry, who always goes armed, when riding alone, immediately drew her revolver and gave chase. &he overtook the brute and fired. Her first shot went wild. She fired again and hit the dog in the side. The third bul­let also went wild, but the fourth found the dog's heart and it rolled ovef dead.

Miss Mayberry plucked a little girl from beneath the wheels of a trolley car on Second street pike just in time! to save the little one from being ground to death beneath the heavy car. The child, in trying' to get Out of the way of a heavy dray, forgot about the rapidly moving trolley and stepped on the tracks. "It was noth­ing," said Miss Mayberry modestly, after carrying the child -to a, place of safety.

Miss Mayberry stopped' the runaway horse of Mrs. Jennie May Heade, of Ogontz, the animal having taken the bit while she was driving to Fox Chase, on Second street pike. Mrs. Heade, who had just recovered from a severe illness, was unable to stop the brute in her weakened condition. Miss Mayberry, who was out riding, got the reins and brought the horse to a standstill.

"I do not see that I have done any­thing out of the ordinary," said Miss Mayberry. "Any girl In good health could have done the same."

Council Bluffs Man Makes a Generous Donation. 4 <

Special to Times-Ropublican. ' '' ' Council Bluffs, July 6.—Another un­

expected boost for the Jernnie Edmund-son Memorial hospital, now in course of construction, came yesterday aft­ernoon in an announcement to members of the Woman's Christian Association that Peter Peterson, Sr., a Boomer township farmer, had decided to make a contribution of' $1,000.

Mr. Peterson's offer comes practic­ally without conditions. The money will be applied to the building fund and will secure some additional con­veniences in the hospital arrange­ments which 011 account of lack of funds the association had concluded to do without for the present.

During the early part of the move­ment for the new hospital building Mr. Peterson had suggested to a member of the association that he would donate $100 when the, roof was on. This offer was apparently made half in jest and was not the basis for financial hopes even to the amount stated. After tak­ing a look at the building and making a mental review of the efforts of those promoting the enterprise, Mr. Peter­son cheerfully multiplied his original suggestion by ten a.nd placed $1,000 subject to the disposition of the asso­ciation.

This is the second $1,000 contribution since the new hospital movement was inaugurated, aside from the $40,000 furnished by J. D. Edmundson of Dcf Moines. The other contributor was John Norton of Fort Crook, Neb., wliosf gift was specified to be for the en­dowment of a bed in the hospital.

"Can't that woman bequiet a min­ute," soliloquized Central while she reiterated "Nimber please?" trying not to speak crossly.

"Central," said a pleasant voice: "I want to thank you for taking so much trouble to get me that last number. You are always very kind and oblig­ing and I do appreciate it."

The surprise was so great, so over­whelming, that Central could only murmur confusedly, "T—O—yes, Ma'­am."

ONE ON INSURANCE MAN.

Adjuster Caught by 8ly Storekeeper, Who Took Him at His Word.

"Insurance adjusters are about as clever and 'smooth' as any class of men to be found," said an old-time mer-chantt he other day, according to the Kansas City Times. "Their logic is always oiled and ready to run without the least jar or friction. Once, how­ever, one of the tribe got slipped up on. His logic got sidetracked on a derail­ing siwltch. I was running a country store which was destroyed by fire. The adjuster came along and then came the battle to get a settlement satisfactory to both sides. We were going over the items burned in the basement. 'Now, what else was there?' asked the ad­juster.

" 'There were 20 bushels of potatoes •which I paid 25 cents a bushel for; but at the time they were worth 80 conts a bushel.'

"'Hold on,' said the insurance man. 'We're only paying you for what you lost. No inflated values go. They cost you $5. What else?"

" 'There were four barrels of apples which had rotted on my hands and I was going to throw out that day. The fire, 'prevented it. 'They weren't worth a cent, but they cost me $3 a barrel.'

"The adjuster saw he was caught. Without batting an eye he wrote: 'Four barrels of apples at $3 a barrel, $12.' "

Poor Little Chap. ' Of the late Miss Johnstone Bennett,

In whose death the American stage lost a commedlenne of exquisite talent, an actor said:

"Miss Johnstone Bennett's success came easily to her. She could have succeeded as a writer had she wished. She never went out but she retained with a host of striking episides she had observed.

"One day in the early summer she said to me, as she lnuched on some de­licious fruit:

" 'I was slumming yesterday. As I passed a fruit stand1 piled high with black bananas, soft strawberries, giiSen watermelon, and the' like, a little rag­ged chap of 6 or 7 stopped before it,' and I heard him say to the dealer, as he pointed toward the strawberries:

" 'Gimme a cent's worth of rottens.' "

"Thus a materialist," he went on, "would call marriage merely; a state wherein you give a woman half your victuals to have the other half cooked."

. Itching, disfiguring eruptions, rashes, boils, etc., as well as pimples, black-heads and rough, scaly skins, show the presence of some irritating humor in the blood. These acids and humors with which the blood is filled are being constantly thrown off through the pores and glands, and the skin is kept in a feverish, diseased and unsightly condition. Nothing applied externally can change the condition of the blood or prevent the outflow of poisons and acids; only constitutional treatment can do this. The countless washes, salves, lotions, etc., that are used cannot reach the humor-laden blood and are, therefore, useless, except for the temporary comfort and clean­liness they afford. Tlie acid poison in the blood, which is the cause of the trouble, must be removed before a cure cah be effected. S. S. S. is a real blood purifier, possessing all the requirements to neutralize and remove the humor from the circulation. It completely eradicates every trace of the poison and restores this vital fluid to its natural state of purity S. S. S. cools the acid-heated blood so that instead of pouring out acrid matter on the skin it feeds and nourishes it with health-sustaining properties, and the eruptions and diseases of the skin pass away.
