No Right to Ugliness.

The woman who is lovely in face
form and temper will always have
friends, but one who would be attractive
must keep her health. If she is weak,
sickly and all run down she will be ner-
vous and irritable. If she has constipa-
ton or kidney trouble, her impure
blood will cause pimples' blotohes, skin
eruptions and wretched complexion.
Electric Bitters is the best medicine in
the world to regulate stomach, liver and
kidneys and to purify the blood. It
gives strong nerves, bright eyes, smooth,
velvety skin, rich complexion. 1t will
make good-looking, charming woman
of run down invalid. Only so cents at

Obituary.

Last Sunday the swift winged mes
senger of Death spread his wings and
sailed down from his stronghold and
paused at the house in Marshalltown
wherein lay Maud Markham, drew his
sword and severed from mortality that
which we call life and the body was
shipped to Audubon where Sunday
the casket was taken to the Baptist
church, where amidst bower of flow
ers it rested while the Methodist choir
sent up the songs of peace and com
fort, and Rev. Hinkhouse said the last
sad rites. From there it was taken to
the Maple Grove Cemetery where
twas laid away in peace to rest.
She had been suffering from noun
tain fever ever since her return from
California, where she went as nurse
for Mrs. b. S. Phelps, but she thought
the was recovering until this fatal
turn took place. She now looks down
from stormy battlements wherein is
branded high, in characters strong as
adamant, pure as the azure of the
vaulted dome of starlit Sky, the word
"hope," that carries with it the desti-
ny of the good and just, the supreme
apex of holy, unseltiish, OPEN hearted
living, and while friends strew he1
grave with flowers and tears, may
they catch the spirit that strews life's
burdens with the flowers of hope and
JOY and charity that lead all to bright.

The Birth of Audubon.

On raw, foggy, misty morning
twenty-three ago Tuesday morning,
the first town lot of Audubon was sold
by auction as we are told down by
where the power house stands. From
there they went straight east followed
by men who were eager to purchase.
The corner lots sold for $500 each and
the mex tfor 1915, then $3.50 and the
middle ones for $3.50. The only build
ing now standing is VIM. Cloughly's
drug store and the only one of the mer-
chants doing business at the same
stand is Will, who has been in the
same place all these twenty-three
first. The Rock Island pushed rapid
~ into town and furnished the back
ing for the court house, giving the peo-
pie the use of it seven years free and
afterward sold it to the county. The
next year the county seat was chang
ed from Extra to Audubon, which
was scarcely more than new frontier
log cabin town. Since then the town
has grown steadily if slowly until if
now represents more money than any
town of its size in the country. Tt ia
noted all over the state for it business
energy and enterprise and should keep
going to keep on par with the past.

Lord Roberts Full Report
Published.

And with but few exceptions the
name Studebaker Bros. Mannfactur-
ing Company, of South Bend, Ind,
was stricken out by the tele-
graphic editors of the very papers that
should enthusiastically have given
prominence to an item of so much inn
portance to all interested in American
manufacture.
The American people are entitled to
such information. They have right
to know the truth. This great Ameri-
can institution, modestly taking it's
position among the foremost of our
great manufacturing establishments,
should not have the glories of it's
achievements in foreign country
chilled by American newspapers garb-
ling the official report of England's
great field marshal. Great Britian's
official organs, world-famed papers
printed in London, gave just and prop
er credit to an American enterprise by
publishing in full Lord Roberts, high
praise of the Studebaker wagon. but
the American dailies, with few hon
orable exceptions, eliminated that part
of his report. Has it come to this that
American enterprise:can have recogni-
ton in the columns of the metropoli-
tan press only by special arrange
ment /? If so we have entered upon an
era of absolute commercialism.
