ADJUSTMENTS.
A Dime Novel Production Of the Nick
Carter Variety Fails to Draw.


Either because of the rainy evening
or because Marshalltown's theater-
going public does not prefer the sensa-
tional melo-drama, but instead the
more Wholesome productions of the
stage, the attendance at the Odeon on
Tuesday evening. was small. Caught
in the Web" or How Got My Feet in
the Sticky Fly-paper," sensational
dime novel production of the Nick Car
ter type, was the bill. 1t was blood and
thunder from start to finish, and abso-
slutely without dramatic merit. Williams,
safe crackers and cut-throats of vari-
GUS sorts We're moved down in each act,
and for time it looked as If a special
venire would have to be drawn from
among the stage hands in order to fill
out the cast. The curtain was very
good, however, and managed to drop at
the right time, in order to allow the
transformers to make up their doubles
and appear in new roles. The only
thing lacking to make Caught in the
Web" thoroughly a Lincoln j. Carter
affair is railroad train.

Carroll has been inclined to act very
fairly in his settlement with the COM

to law. He says one attorney offered
to give him $1,000 for the claim, in
sisting only that he would remain at

that another guaranteed him $4,000 if
he would prosecute his claim thru the
courts.

CROP oNE-THlRD SHORT.
Marshall Canning Company Finishe
Seasons Packinq-QuaIity Excellent.

The Marshall Canning Company fin
ished its seasons work, and after the
labelling Of cans and the shipments are
made the cannery will be closed for an
other season, making the total output
about one third short of last season.
Tho the crop is short the quality of the
corn never has been better. With a
shortage reported in the east. and the
wet weather and frost damage in the
west, it is very likely. from all indica-
tons, that the price will advance by
the time the corn is ready to put on the
market, and that packers over the
country will not suffer so very much
from the shortage in output. Some Of
the local concerns output is already
contracted for, and there will be a
ready market for the output of all con-
Germs by the time cold weather arrives.
Corn has been so slow in maturing that
there are fields in the county that are
affording good roasting ears at the
present time, nearly as good, in fact,
as they were month ago.

II had drank coffee since babyhood
and altho was very nervous and dys-
peptic, could not and would not be
Ilieve that coffee had anything to dc
with It," writes an American lady nov
living near Munich, Germany.
.My physician finally convinced me
that coffee was at the bottom of all my
troubles, and 1 tried many things TIC
take it's place, but nothing satisfied
the craving for real coffee. AT last
one day in half hearted, despairine
mood, 1 bought from the grocer some
Postum Food Coffee. My grown-uI
daughter, who by the way had inherited
my taste for coffee and also my ner-
vousness, laughed and said,-'Don't you
know that nothing can take the place
Of well made coffee, half Java am?
half Mocha, with plenty of rich
cream"
I firmly believe it, replied, but &
drowning man will grasp at a straw
and 1 am getting more nervous every
day, and can hardly eat anything at
all. and DR.. S., like the rest Of the
physicians, tells me it all comes from
coffee.
So next morning personally made a
pot of Postum, following closely the di-
rections-and such q surprise! The
color was rich. dark, whey brown,
and pleasant aroma greeted the nos
trils. But the taste-the crucial test!
/ confess feared to put it to that test
for fear Of another disappointment.
But not so with my daughter, who
eagerly made the trial and fairly
shouted;-.Hurrah! Mamma, you have
found it at last tried it and that
ended our coffee drinking for good.
The flavor was full and rich and left
nothing to be desired.
In a short time, my dyspepsia disap-
peared and as for nerves.-my daughter
and myself almost forgot that such
things existed until we came to Ger
many and had to go back to coffee
and we are again as nervous and dys-
peptic as we used to be. But we don't
intend to let it go on; I have written
to America for good supply of Postum
and propose to always have 1T In the
future at any cost. Life is miserable
to us without Postum.
When we used 1t, Postum proved the
most gentle of conquerors and loaded
us with benefits in the way of strength
ened health and quiet nerves. Name
