BIG AMOUNT in PENSIONS.
at Soldiers Home Receive
an Average of 1888 Per Month.

The paying of pensions at the Iowa
Soldiers Home for the third quarter.
which has been in progress for the
past few days, was concluded Sat-
urday. A total of s15,129.s6 was paid
out at headquarters, which is in ex-
cess of any previous quarter in the
history of the institution. Five hun
dred thirteen pensioners were paid,
the men themselves receiving the sum
of $11,072.S3. Dependent relatives were
paid $4,056.53. which is s729.36 in ex-
cess of that required by law. This
shows that many of the veterans are
extremely liberal in using their pension
money for the benefit of those who may
be dependent upon them, some, in fact,
sending every cent Of their quarterly
allowances. The average to the pen
sioners for the quarter was $29.49, and
for the month $3.50.
The amount paid in pensions does not
signify the entire sum handled in tho
headquarters office. The pay roll for
the month OF September was received
at the same time as the pension money
for the quarter, and was i'll itself s3-
1892, making a total of $1S,3O9.7S
handled in the office. AS the entire
sum is in small amounts there is vast
amount of work on each pay day, and
especially when it comes in connection
with pension days.

PERFECT LOVE.
First of a Series on Love, Marriage and
Divorce, at the First Presbyterian

Church.
The auditorium of the First Presby-
terrain church was packed last evening
to listen to the first of series OF three
Sunday evening sermons on the sub
jects of Love Marriage and "Dl-
yorce." Those who We're prepared for
sensationalsm left disappointed, as the
pastor, Rev. +. w. Russell. at the OUT
set disclaimed any intention of border
ing on the sensational The address
was an earnest, thoughtful and candid
heart to heart talk on the love which
should exist between man and woman.
The speaker said that the ideals OF love
had been lowered within the last few
years, and attributed this fact to
certain class of French writer's, naming
Zoa, De Maupassant and others. ne
said that the sexes We're attracted too
much by the superficial side OF eacn
other and did not know the meaning Oh
the true love which should bind the
souls of a man and woman together.
Illustrations We're drawn from the lNes
of MIR. and Mrs. Robert Browning and
the Countess de Castelanne, nee Anna
Gould, to bring out the difference be-
tween perfect love and the mere desire
for that which glitters. The attention
of the audience was held by the speaker
to the end.

Rev. Il. r. Jones. formerly of Owa-

greeted him both morning and evening.
His morning sermon upon the text,

merely church membership nor heaven

self is Christian scholar OF mature
experience and wide culture. He
speaks with the direct force of a man
striking his blows under the conscious
Eess of q powerful right arm. In his
little mannerisms he shows that he is a
man born to lead and will undoubtedly
become one Of the most influential
preachers in this city. The many

THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.

Also Few Facts On the Same Subject.
We hear much nowadays about health
foods and hygienic living, about vege-
tGrianism and many other fads along
the same line.
Restaurants may be found in the
large cities where no meat, pastry OF
coffee is served and the food crank Is IN
his glory, and arguments and theories
galore advanced to prove that meat was
never intended for human stoanachs,
and almost make us believe that our
sturdy ancestors who lived four score
years in robust health on roast peer,
pork and mutton must have been gross
~ ignorant Of the laws OF health.
Our forefa Tiers had other things TO
do than formulate theories about the
food they ate. A warm welcome was
, extended to any kind from bacon 10
acorns.
A healthy appetite and common sense
ere excellent guides to follow in mat
tiers Of diet. and n,ived diet OF grains,
fruits and meats is undoubtedly the
best.
AS compared with grains and yegeta-
bles, meat furnishes the most nutrlment
In highly concentrated form and is
ligested and assimilatod more quickly
than vegetables and grams
DR.. julius Remmson on this subject
says: Nervous persons people run
down In health and OF low vitality
should eat meat and plenty of 1t. IL the
digestion is too feeble at first II may be
easily corrected by the regular use OF
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after each
meal. Two of these excellent tablets
taken after dinner will digest several
thousand grains of meat, eggs or other
animal food in three hours, and no mat
ter how weak the stomach may be, no
trouble will be experienced if regular
practice is made of using Stuart's Dys-
repsia Tablets because they supply the
pepsin and diastase necessary to per-
feet digestion. and every form OF tndi-
gestion will be overcome by their use.
THAT large class of people who come
Under the head Of nervous dyspept1cs
should eat plenty of mea.. and insure Its
proper digestion by the daily use OF
safe, harmless digestice medicine like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets composed of
the natural digestive principles, pepsin.
Giastase. fruit acids and salts, which
actually perform the work of digestion.
Cheap cathartic medicines, masquerade
ing under the name of dyspepsia cures,
are useless for indigestion, as they have
absolutely no effect upon the actual di-
gestion of food.
Dyspepsia in all its many forms is
simply failure of the stomach to digest
food and the sensible way to solve the
riddle and cure the dyspepsia is to make
Gaily use at meal time of a preparation
