Hogaa' Will Case, 1t was Solomon, the wealthy as well as the wise, who said: ‘Better is a hand- ful with quietness than both the hands full with travall and vexation of spirit,’ ** are the opening words of a briet filed in the supreme court today by the attorneys for Mrs, Ida M. Boggs, who is the defendant na will contest case appealed from Doug- las county. The case presents several sonsational features. George H. Boggs, the deceased, left to his wife the absolute ownership of one-half of his estate and the power to convert the remainder to her own use. He was a wealthy man and several of his heirs rejected the provisions of the will and began a contest In the court. In Pretiy Hands, Hands delicately moulded and daintil white are among the chief of woman’s charms. When such hands are marred by eruptions, their' very beauty draws aftention to the repulsive disease. Hu- mors which break out on the body be- gin in the blood. Soaps and salves may cover up a hu- mor but they can't cure it. There is a cure for salt-rheum and other eruptive discases, caused by a corrupt condition of the blood. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery cures these discases perfectly ‘and _pe manently It carries off the poisons which cause discase. It makes the blood ure and rich, It increases the quanti. ty of the blood sup- ply by increasing the action of the blood making glands.

SMALLPOX AT DECATUR MILD for I's the Flaring Sintements Made by Senwationnl Correspondent DECATUR, Neb., Det. 3.—To the Editor of The Bee: Exagerated reports of the ex- Istence of so-called smallpox at this place heve been published in Sioux City, Chicago and Omaha dallies and several of the county papers, to the great Injury of the people of this community. Statements such as “hundreds dead!" ‘‘whole familles wiped out!" “nine doctors exhausted from over- work!" and Indians on the Indian reserva- tion adjoining us on the north “dying like hogs with the cholera” and all ltke state- ments are absolutely false, and all seem to emanate from a correspondent at Onawa, Ia. On the contrary, not a single death occurred here or in this township, nor, as I am informed by the government physicl has there been a death from this cause on the Omaha Indian reservation. We have but four doctors here, and they are not overworked. The faot the same disease is here that Is so general through parts of this state and is so mild that in about one-half of the cases no physician is called and many of the patients are not confined to the house for more than a day or two. The disease has been much more prevalent here all summer than it is at this time, but in g0 mild a form that no at- tempt has been made to quarantine until about two or three weeks ago, when Dr. Towne, a medical inspector of the State Board of Health, who was here, pronounced it smallpox. A strict quarantine has been enforced since that time, the disease con- fined to infected persons at x time quar- antine went into effect, and nét a new case in the town for more than three weeks out- side of infected premises. Only a few In- fected places are left and within the next few days fully one-half of the infected prem- tses will be ready for disiufection, and then the quarantine will be raised from them. No mall matter is allowed to be put into the office from any of the Infected persons or places, reducing the chances to the minimum of transmitting the disease to other towns, making the great flourish of authority which has been called into action in some of the neighboring towns, in ob- structing our malls and preventing our people from obtaining supplies from the railroads at such places, uncalled for and in some respects, we belleve, without author- ity. A postoffice inspector is expected within a day or two to stralghten matters up so we may get mail without being filched out of a bonus to have it brought ue. THOMAS R.
