EASILY PROVEN.
There is Not the slightest Necessity
for Leaving Marshalltown to Look

Ihere Is Not tho slightest Necessity.
for Leaving Marshalltownt to Look
for Proof.
The experience given below by this
we'll known citizen of Marshalltown is
easily proven. The proof he offers for
his convictions can safely be left with
the reader. 1t is a difficult matter to
describe an aching back or any of the
ills caused by disordered kidneys How
to cure the trouble is of much more
Importance. and the most exaeting
resident of Marshalltown cannot ask.
for any better authority on this point
than that given by MIR. +. +. Frederick.

pletely abandoned his ideas on this
subject. as evidenced by tho committee
assignments received at the hands of
the republicans. He has again been
taken back into the republican fold
upon the promise to vote with the re-
publicans, while Teller and Pettigrew,
who still cling to then. free silver ideas,
were left out III the cold.
This proposition is an old one, and
some years ago senator Stewart and
his associates started 10 do the same
thing. The case WAS carried into the
courts and being decided against the

A SUMMER WITH FOOTBALL PLAYER
THE NOTED SPECIALIST, J. NJ KEYS -sMITH, NJ. D, TELLS HOW THE
PLAYERS GET READY FOR FALL.

While the football players do not prop
erly begin to train until September, still
it is necessary to spend the summer in
getting ready to train. No man could
step out of the regular routine of every
day life and suddenly live the life of an
expert in training. The sudden stoppage
OF all the luxuries which people allow
themselves would be too much for his
constitution. He would be troubled with
insomnia and would break down. The
stopping of a bottle of beer at night has
been known to give a man insomnia. and
the giving up of tobacco produces it's i'll
effects at first. 1t is absolutely necessary
to give up luNuries slowly. If you are
going to bed every night at II, you cannot
suddenly make a habit of retiring at s.
Ihat is the reason so many WOuld-be
athletes break down early in their ca
reer. They leave off all the luxuries of
life and begin it's seventies without due
preparation.
Two very prominent football players
have placed themselves in my care for
the su1mmer, or until such time as they
are to go in training; and the work 1
shall give them to do is identical with
the work that should be taken by every
very healthy man who goes on a summer
vacation. Nothing tones up the system
and tunes the heart and muscles like a
course of light athletics; and nothing so
tends to grade a man.
By grade" is meant the taking on of
sufficient fat to make a man healthy, but
no more. Grading also means the taking
off of supertluous fat. A man properly
graded is just fat enough. Men are so
differently built as to size of frame and
weight of bones that it is difficult to give
a table of weights and measures. But l
should say that a man who measures )
feet 9 inches should weigh 175. That may
be a little heavy, but he should never get
under las. Below that means danger, the
wasting Of necessary tissues. Above 1870
there is danger of obesity, or at least
RICHNESS"
The best amateur athlete in New York
is exactly 6 feet tall. He weighs 100
pounds, and it is not TOO much for him.
/ have seen men at 200 pounds who We're
very athletic, could play football, which
is the most trying game for a fat man,
and could sprint. They had hardened
the muscles until they We're like iron, and,
having a naturally heavy frame, they
could carry off their weight we'll.
The course of training for a beginner

, MIN plenty of good air for his lungs dur
ing this performances; and if these direc-
tions are followed he will have a fine ap-
petite for breakfast.
The breakfast meal can be taken with
the family, eating whatever is served.
Do not, however, take more thar one cup
OF coffee, and only one lump of sugar in
the. cup. Butter can be eaten, and any
other food that is liked Only half a
glass of water be taken. and no va
ter for an hour after breakfast.
All meals must be taken with less than
a a3ass OF fluid, and after Dime there
must be no nap.
Amman can take 20 pounds off his weight
In aNmonth by abstaining from water and
by ~Aaking'no maps during the day. After
that comes exercise. Take all you can
get OF it; nothing heroic, but be always on
the 60. Join mountain climbing expedi-
lions, play tennis and croquet. Patronize
the golf links, don't sit still. Cultivate the
habit of waiting on yourself, do your own
STOPPING, don't ask people to pick up
things for you. BY this very simple sys-
tenn l reduced an English nobleman last
summer from 225 pounds to 175. He re-
duced so fast it alarmed me, but he kept
his health we'll.
few laws to these. Twice a day they take
violent exercise in a gymnasium. They
swing on the bar, leap the hurdles and
sprint until they are in a great glow.
Then they are well rubbed down with
warm water and alcohol This assists
the formation of muscle. The matter of
going into training is not serious after
that. In training. preparatory to a race,
they are compelled to diet and all sweets
are denied them. But latterly the Yale
athletes are eating ice cream once a day
and cake at supper. They are also drink
ing ale.
The man who wants to get in good on
dition must let strong stimulants alone.
He can drink a bottle of beer with his
dinner and one or two at night. But this
is about the limit. Wine will upset him
and throw him back to where he began.
Dyspeptics can cure themselves by eX-
ercise. The worst case of Indigestion was
cured last spring in London in three
stages. The first was perfect repair of
the teeth. The second was plenty of ex-
ercise, and the third was the slow eating
of every kind of food that was agreeable
to the taste, excepting pineapple and lob
ster, toWard both of which the patient
had a constitutional idiosyncracy that

was a great fighter and could kick like
a mule" He always got the best of a
boyish fight and always came home with
bruises as well as glory.
Leonard Wood began life in Massa-
chusetts. He picked cranberries in the
bogs of Cape Cod and fished %alongshore.
He was a typical country boy but with
more money than all the Bay state
country boys have; and with more am
bition than he could curb. He was always
busy; and so precocious was he that he
stood first in his class ever when he was
the youngest and smallest.
The son of a doctor, he fanc:ed, for no
TRANCE reason, the medical professions;
and as soon as he reached the age limit,
he was sent to the medical school at
Cambridge. He was too young when he
graduated to practice and his spare time
was spent in trying to raise a mustache;
for no patient was trusting enough to
commit his body into the hands of so inn
mature a youth.
One day a friend met him on the street:
why, hello!" was the salutation. IF
that isn't Len Wood. Where in the world
did you get that little mustache?"
RAISED it, was the laconic response.
1T was darned hard work getting pa
tients without one"
Fortune and chance called Leonard
Wood to Arizona. He went west to prac-
tice medicine in the army. But the fol-
lowing day he set out to fight Indians
That was fifteen years ago when Geron-
imo was on the warpath, and when the
roads through Arizona were red with the
slaughter of women and children. Cap
tain Wood, for he was put in command of
a band, longed to chase Geronimo; and,
being given permission, he started after
that wicked brave and pursued him
