Had Husband Arrested.

Fort Dodge, Feb. 12.-Dave Woods
was arrested by the police Monday
evening on the complaint of his wife
who charged him with being under the
influence of liquor and disorderly. She
stated that Woods had come home
drunk in the evening and had threat
ened her, and that when one of the
children became frightened and called
her brother Woods had struck him.
Woods admitted the last part, but said
that the brother had been the agrees
sor and that he had acted in self
defense.
Mrs. Woods told a pitiful story before
the mayor. She said that her husband
had repeatedly threatened her life. and
that on one occasion he had chased her
with a razor, threatening to kill her.
She also produced shotgun, which she
claimed that Woods had bought with
the avowed purpose of killing her.
She also claimed that her husband
had failed to properly support her, and
that his money had gone to the saloon
men. She asked that Woods be bound
over to keep the peace, and that his
name be placed on the black list, so
that he would not be able to obtain
liquor. The case was continued.
The hearing was transferred from the
police court to the court of Justice Ma
sowan, where Woods was placed under
500 bonds to keep the peace.

the postal appropriation bill by the
committee having the matter in charge.
This Is an increase of $3,000,000 over the
appropriation made last year. and 1T
will enable the postmaster general to
increase materially the number OF
routes and to reduce the number of
fourth class postofices.
The rural free delivery service is
gradually wiping out the fourth class
rostoffices but all opposition to the ex-
tension of the service has disappeared
except that which comes from postnas
tiers who lose their positions.
Senators and representatives, in re-
Spouse to demands of their constituents,
are clamoring for the extension of this
mail service. The system, so far as the
law is concerned, is still regarded as
an experiment Last session an attempt
was made to make the service perma-
nent, but this was defeated. Another
attempt will be made this year, and it is
believed it will be successful, as the
service has demonstrated Its usefulness
and there is no longer any question as
to its popularity.

GoRpoN's MEETING.
Speak. Of the Blessing of Power lr

FFdycT.
The Christian people of MARSHALL
town are having a great privilege in
being permitted to listen to the glad
tidings as 1t is presented to them by
Mr.. Gordon. In very attractive way
he is showing that the gospel is indeed
good news. and the people who are
having the opportunity of listening to
him viii be all the richer for his brief
stay In the city. Tuesday afternoon
he brought to his hearers something of
the blessing and power OF prayer. He
said that the great person, the one
who Is doing great things for this old
world of ours, Is not necessarily the
preacher or the statesman. but the
one who takes time to pray, who insists
and persists in prayer In the frs.
place he gave some suggestions about
prayer-"that we ought to have a time
to pray; we ought to have a place OF
prayer. Let God speak to us thru his
Word before prayer. The Holy Spirit
helps IN prayer" There are three con-
ditions upon which depends answer to
prayer:
One-If prayers are to be answered,
then Christ must rule in our life. This
statement may not seem very difficult
at first thought, but as one thinks it
over, he sees how keen cutting and
razor-e edged 1t is. Possibly If Christ
is ruling in our life, II we do every
thing to please Him, there are many
things that we will not do.
Second-We must pray in Christ's
name. His name gives us standing In
Gods court On account of sin man
has no standing with God. The name
of Christ gives him standing
Three-Faith is the next condition of
answered prayer.
In the evening Mr.. Gordon most
strikingly presented the help of the
Holy Spirit. He defined and most
clearly illustrated the meaning of the
word comforter" without saying
anything about the Greek, yet
bringing out most beautifully the
meaning of the Greek word para
platos.'
Something About Gods Will in
Prayer" was the subject of the address
this afternoon, and tonight's topic will
be Fresh Supplies of Power"

The onion is undoubtedly whole
some article of food, but 1t would be
difficult to find a more indigestible ar
lticle than fried onions, and to many
people they are simply poison. but the
onion does not stand alone in this re-
respect. Any article Of food that Is
not thoroughly digested becomes q
source of disease and discomfort
whether it be fried onions or beef
steak.
The reason why any wholesome food
is not promptly digested is because
the stomach lacks some important ele-
ment of digestion, some stomachs lack
peptone, others are deficient in gastric
Juice, still others lack hydrochloric
acid
The one thing necessary to do in
any case of poor digestion is to supply
those elements of digestion which the
stomach lacks and nothing does this
so thoroughly and safely as Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets.
Dr. Richardson, in writing thesis
on treatment OF dyspepsia and indi-
gestion, closes his remarks by saying,
for those suffering from acid dyspep-
STA, shown by sour, watery risings, or
for fiatulent dyspepsia. shown by gas
on stomach. causing heart trouble ana
difficult breathing, as well as for all
other forms of stomach trouble, the
safest treatment is to take one or two
of stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after
each meal. l advise them because
they contain no harmful drugs, but
are composed of valuable digestives.
which act promptly upon the food
eaten. I never knew a case of indi-
gestion or even chronic dyspepsia
which Stuart's Tablets would not
reach"
Cheap cathartic medicines claiming
to cure dyspepsia and indigestion can
have no effect whatever in actively d.
costing the food. and to call any ca
thartic medicine cure for indigestion
is a misnomer.
Every druggist in the United States
and Canada sells Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, and they are not only the
safest and most successful but the
most scientific of any treatment for
indigestion and stomach trouble.
