Beautiful Iowa.

Just at this time of year when many
are looking over the map of the world
hoping if possible to discover land of
mild climate and perpetual sun shine;
it would be we'll for all such to cast an
eye toward Iowa, beautiful land of ge-
NAL fall weather. 1t is true that Iowa
is sometimes visited in the winter by
cold winds and drifting SHOWS from
che north, but no State in the Union
can boast more beautiful summer or
fall than Iowa. Here today, we have
reached the middle of October, with
green fields, blooming flowers, and the
forest and shat.e trees decked with
their mantle of green as inearly spring
and the air soft and balmy as June
morning, just cool enough of morn
'ngs and evenings to make outdoor
exercise delightful, and give life and
-nergy to the system, while the mid
die of the day is warm aud genial as
the sunny south, and the sky as clear
and blue as an Italian summer day.
These who leave Iowa for more
delightful home or climate would not
ne satisfied if translated to that celes-
.ial land beyond the skys.
We do not claim for Iowa every adj
vantage, but we do claim that Iowa
has fewer objections and more advan
stages, everything considered, than any
other state in the Union, and if enjoy
ed for season no change could be de-
sired.
We know that the human mind will
Finger around the land of our youth.
and poor the hills may be, yet upon
their crest we playedin our youth and
it is hard to blot out CT our memory
the early scenes of life,. bnt here in
Iowa, we can form new attachments,
and Willis not forgetting the land OF
our youth, we can love the land of our
adoption, and believe Iowa, beautiful
Iowa the earthly Paradise of God, the
garden spot of creation. Come TO Iowa
stick to Iowa like brick dust to bar
of soap and be happy.

I'm those good old days of yore il
was the custom to display red light
from the castle upon the return of the
party after q successful hunt. Mod
ernizing an old custom it will soon be
necessary for the Missouri Valley foot
ball team to hire whole torch light
procession if they continue through
out the season as they have in tie pas,
four games.
In the game here yesterday after
noon between the team of the Ne
braska Institution for the deaf and the
Missouri Valley team 1T was struggle
between Drawn and "beet" pitted
against Skill, science and athletic
training and the latter scored all easy
victory.
In the toss up for choice of goals
the visitors won choosing the west
goal and kick off. On the kick off
Missouri Valley secured the ball made
five yard gain through center on TIE
first. On the second down the ball
was advanced fifteen yards and on the
third Mclaughlin was sent around the
end supported by almost perfect inter-
ference, scoring the first touch down
in less than five minutes play. Cook
kicked goal; score Missouri Valley G.

The ball was returned to the center,
Mutes kicked off and the locals who
throughout the entire game played 8
terrific offensive game forced the ball
by smashes on center, end runs and
numerous other plays in foot ball
nomenclature, gradually down the
field for touchdowns which before the
end of the last half were about as
numerous as politicians at the present,
writing. In all Missouri Valley scored
five touchdowns, Cook kicking three
goals. Total score Missouri Valley %,
Mutes o.
Throughout the entire game thu
Mutes played on the defensive with
the exception of a few minutes during
the last half when they secured the
ball on repeated out of bounds kick
off. One noticeable feature about the
playing of the locals is that each posi-
ton on the team is filled by competent
material and the work of no certain
individual overshadows the perform.
ance of the remainder of the team
The Mutes play clean and gentle
manly game but lack that requisite OF
athletics of all kinds, proper training
and practice. The crowd which wit
messed the game yesterday afternoon
was most gratifying to the team as
the receipts were sufficient to defray
all expenses and leave balance OF
about So. Although the game is no,
scheduled yet the prospects are the
next game here will lie between the
team of Beilvue College and the locals
the game to be played next Friday

The democratic rally Saturday night
was very satisfactory to those of that
political faith, while their opponents
affect to extract satisfaction from the
demonstration by averring that two
thirds of the large crowd present were
Republicans. This is good news, too,
for it shows that there is hope left yet
for republican redemption when they
can be attracted in such large numbers
to attend democratic rally. Whether
two thirds of the vast throng were re-
publicans or democrats is immaterlal.
but is it conceded that the crowd was
the largest that ever turned out to q
political demonstration in Woodbine
and shows that the much talked Of
apathy among voters throughout the
country does not exist in this neck O,
The woods. A special train brought
about two hundred loyal democrats
from Missouri Valley and Logan, &C
companied by two bands. The parade
included $50 voters by actual count.
All the available space in the opera
house was taken long before the speak
ing began and hundreds were unable
to gain admission who desired to hear
the speech. Hon. s. b. Wadsworth,
our candidate for congress, held the
close attention of his audience while
he delivered mastery address re-
viewing the issues of the campaign.
Mr.. Wadsworth is making a splendid
canvass, and while the district has
been hopelessly republican in recent
years, it has been represented by a
democrat once or twice in a while,
and-what has come to pass may also
be repeated, according to historical
precedent Woodbine Chronicle.

Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the civ
llized world. Your mothers and grand
mothers never thought of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilious
ness. Doctors were scarce, and they
seldom heard of appendicitis, nervous
prostration OF heart failure, etc. They
used August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation of un-
digested food, regulate the action of
the liver, stimulate the nervous and
organic action of the system, and that
is all they took when feeling dull and
bad with headaches and other aches.
You only need few doses of Green's
August Flower, in liquid form, to make
you satisfied there is nothing serious
