such arrangements as they can for
fitting up and equipping the house.
The general opinion not alone of the
department but of the citizens in gen
eral Is that the new house and the
location of a cart at the point Indi
cated, the corner of .Fourteenth and
Main streets, is a great public bene
fit and will be of material protection
to property all over the western and
central part of the city. The house
will be located at the highest point
west of the high school building and
at a place where the land slopes away
in all direction, giving a downgrade
pull for the cart to any fire. 'It is
south of the Masonic home and sev
eral hundred feet above It and also
south of the recently " completed
Kathollcky Sokol hall and consider
ably above It. It Is a block north of
the Tel Jed Sokol hall and is four
blocks west of the high school build
ing on a higher hill. It Is one
block east of the store of John Kopla
and within a few blocks of the store
of J M. Jirousek. In. addition there
are a large number of fine residences
within a few blocks of the house in
all directions. The next thing to be
done now is to make arrangements
for putting a cart with hose there and
provide this large section of the city
with some adequate measure of fire
protection.
After lent it Is expected the fire
department will hold several dances
which will provide ample funds for
paying for the building and aid to
some extent In equipping the cart.
The site for the building has been
donated and with the aid which the
department will give, there is no rea
son why a cart, hose and all neces
sary equipment should not be at the
disposnl of the west end citizens with

The Latest Explanation is that
i Microbes Cause Baldness.
Professor Unna of Hamburg, Ger
many, and Dr. Sabourand, of Paris,
France, share the honor of having
discovered the hair microbe.
Baldness is not caused through a
few weeks' worth of these hair mi
crobes, but la the result of conditions
brought about by their presence.
Baldness may not occur until years
after the microbes began work, but
It Is certain to come sooner or later.
, The microbes cut off the blood sup
ply. They feed on the fatty matter
about the roots of the hair, through
which the blood is absorbed. Finally
the fatty matter is consumed, the
fool supply of the hair is gone and it
starves and finally dies.
Resorcin is one of the most effective
germ destroyers ever discovered. Beta
Naphthol is a most powerful, yet ab
solutely safe germicide and antisep
tic, which prevents development of
germ matter, and creates a clean,
healthy condition.
Pilocarpine, although not a color
ing matter or dye, Is an ingredient
well established for its power to
restore natural color to human hair
when loss of color has been caused
by a disease.
Borax, because of its well-defined
softening and cleaning properties, is
most useful in the treatment of scalp
and hair diseases. Glycerine acts as
a stimulant to the hair bulbs, and has
a, soothing, healing and nourishing
influence. lAlchoI is indispensable
In medicine because of, Its antiseptic,
stimulating and preservative, quali

Funeial of (ivorge Sitzman.
The funeral of the late George
Sitzman was held this morning from
St. John's Catholic church, the re
mains being brought to this city from
his late home at Cedar Creek on the
Schuyler train. The body was taken
directly from the Burlington
station and the Catholic service for
the dead was pronounced by Rev.
Father Sbine. There were a very
large number of relatives and friends
of the deceased present, many coming
down on the Schuyler train to attend
the services and pay a last mark of
tribute to their old friend and neigh
bor. The services at the church were
those of the Roman faith, mass for
the repose of the soul of the departed
being said and the Impressive serv
ice being held. Kev. Father Shine
pronounced an eloquent and fitting
tribute to the worth of the departed
and spoke upon the benefits which
he had conferred upon the world
by his upright mode of living and
the splendid example which he had
set In his worthy life.
There was a very long cortege to
the grave In the Catholic cemetery
west of the city, a large number of
carriages forming the funeral proces
sion. The remains were laid at rest
after the usual services incident to
the burial of the dead in the Catholic
faith were had at the cemetery.. The
pall bearers were all old time friends
of the deceased.
Those of the friends of the de
ceased who acted as pall bearers were
James Janda, Frank Svoboda, Ed.
Donat, Max Prels, Louis Leiner and
Andrew Raab, all of whom had well
known the deceased for many years
and who appreciated his many good
qualities. There were a large num
ber of good friends in attendance
at the funeral including Messrs. Chris
Gauer, John Gauer, Charles Hen
nlngs, John A. Hennings, Ferdinand
Hennings,. Joe Smatterer, all of Ce
dar Creek, J. P. Keil and wife of
Cullonv Mrs. Frank Busche, Jos.

addition all the children of deceased
were preesnt among . them being
Frank Sltzman and family and Henry
Sitzman and family, all of Cedar
Creek, and George Sitzman, Jr., and
family of St. Joseph, Mo.
Deceased had realized for some
time that his recovery was not at all
probable and he had made a great
nany arrangements for the final reck
oning, having arranged so that his
casket should be appropriately cov
ered with his favorite flowers and
requested before, the end came, that
the flowers which he had tended with
such care at-his home be cut and
placed upon the casket. This was
done by his loving sons who followed
In every detail the instructions their
beloved father had left behind him.
Yesterday his son Henry came to
this city and proceeded to have a
fine cement vault constructed in the
Catholic cemtery in which to inter
the remains. Tnl3 vault Is a hand
some one and was constructed as a
slight expression of the love and es
eom which the sons bore their worthy
father. During his last illness the
deceased was looked after with all
possible care by his son and every
thing was done which could be to
assist in recovery or at least in pro
longing life. His death comes as a
severe blow to them and In their
deep sorrow they have the sincere
sympathy of -many good frifnds.
