Suggestions
Clothes Savers

Always clean open work or lace
shirt waists. handkerchief, doilies,
table covers and the like by soaking
one-half to one hour in the suds OF Pc
osta Soap, after which rub firmly with
the hands only. The dashboard should
not be used.
Striped shirt waists or colored wash
goods should be soaked for half an
hour in suds of Peosta Soap. They
can generally be cleaned perfectly by
Q few rubs on the board for the collars
and cuffs.
Do not rub woolens any more than
necessary, because rubbing takes off
the fuzzy nap (the life of the fabric)
much quicker than any kind of actual
use. Soaking in Peosta Soap suds
starts the dirt and the woolens clean
with very little rubbing. II warm
water is used with Peosta Soap and the
woolens are dried where the wind can
not strike them, they will not shrink.

MRS. WHITES SUCCESSOR.
Board Selects Miss Charlotte Reed, Of
This City, as Supervisor of Draw

ing :,
The teachers committee OF the school
board made public today the appoint
ment of Miss Charlotte Reed, of this
city, as supervisor of drawing in the
public schools, to succeed Mrs. Alma
"a. White, who is soon to leave for
San Francisco. The appointment VIII
meet with general satisfaction, ana
1t will be gratifying to Marshalltown
people to know that their own city can
provide young woman SO Well quail
fed for so difficult position. The
selection of Miss Reed to succeed
woman of Mrs Whites ability. Is in
deed an honor to her, and it was after
a careful investigation of many ap-
plicants from abroad that Superinten-
dent Crane chose Miss Reed, who had
not applied. Superintendent Crane had
heard OF her work, however, and upon
looking into her qualifications, found
that she possessed a better record than
any of the applicants.
Miss Reed is daughter Of Mr.. and
Mrs. w. S. Reed, of this city. and was
educated in the schecls here, gradual
ing from the high school in the class
of 1898. She taught one year In the
rural schools, three years. in town
schools, then went to Cincinnati to take
up art. She was for two years a
student at the Cincinnati Art conser-
vatory, and then took one years course
in the Corcoran School of Art, WASH
ington, d. c. She also spent consider
able time studying manual work OF
different races in the Smithsonian IN
stitute and National Museum, and quail
fled as a teacher of drawing, being
chosen to fill the first vacancy among
the supervisors of drawing. Governor
Shaw offered Miss Reed in 1899 a schol-
arship in the Corey School of Design
at New York, and again made the
same offer in 1900, which was an honor
not to be overlooked, as but one schol-
arship falls to a state.
Miss Reeds work as a regular teach
er, as we'll as in drawing. has extended
thru all the grades, and in her parecu-
lar field to pupils much older than
high school seniors. For two years
she held state position, as supervisor
of drawing in the school for the dear
at Council Bluffs.
Miss Reed will accept the posltlon
offered her and the work in drawing,
which has progressed to such degree

4 SURPRISE WEDDING
Hon. George A. Turner and Mrs. Mar
euerite L. Grumme Quietly Married
Thursday Evenins-Leave for Ex-
tended Honeymoon in the East and
South

South.
A wedding. the announcement OF
which will be a surprise to the ma
iority of their Marshalltown friends,
was celebrated Thursday evening at
3 o'clock. at the Christian parsonage,
corner Of Fourth and Linn streets.
when Rev. w. H. Scott united in mar
rage Hon. George A. Turner and Mrs.
Marguerite L. Grumme. No guests
were present, the ceremony being per-
formed only in the presence OF the
pastors household.
The announcement Of the marriage
of these two most estimable people VIII
be received with much pleasure by
their many friends. Each is excep-
tionally we'll known, and has enjoyed
residence in Marshalltown of about
thirty-fiv years. The bride Is the re-
lict of the late Frederick Grumme,
whose sudden death occurred four
years ago last November. The we'd
ding Of Thursday night unites two fam
lilies that have been most intimate for
years, Mr.. Turner having been asso-
ciated in business with Mr.. Grumme
for many years prior to his death. he,
at the time, having been president of
the Marshalltown State Bank, and Mr..
Turner the institutions vice president.
Mrs. Turner is a most excellent woman,
and is loved by all who are so fortu-
nate as to know her. Mr.. Turner is
one of the leading and most conserva-
tive business men OF the city, and a
man very prominent in the state. He
was member of the Iowa senate dur
ing the twenty-fourth and twenty
fifth general assemblies. At present
he is member Of the school board and
vice president Of the Marshalltown
State Bank.
Mr.. and Mrs. Turner left at 1895
Thursday night for Chicago, where
they will remain for a few days. From
there they go to Washington and thence
to Jacksonville, Fla, from which point
they will take a number of interesting
side trips including journey to Cuba
They will return via New York, and
will arrive in Marshalltown about May
/. They will be at home to their
friends at 608 West Main street after
June /.

s425,ooo ALREADY SUBSCRIBED
Work of the Committee for the Church
Federation of America is Progressing
Nicely-A Suggestion Made as to In
surance for Women-will Close the
Work Early Next Week.

While there yet remains $4,000
worth of insurance in the Church Fed
GRAFTON of America to be taken by citi-
zens of Marshalltown the committees
which have had the work in hand feel
that this is such a small per cent of the
original amount asked that they feel
safe in saying that the new insurance
order is assured for this city. On Mon
day, when the committees started in on
their work, there y.st remained to be
subscribed 100000 worth of insurance.
Up to noon today s225,OO0 of this
amount has been taken care of, and the
gentlemen VINO have been at work on
the proposition say that the remaining
$4,000 will be taken by Saturday night
or the first of next week.
Up to Thursday morning the workers
had secured s349,0OC, which has been
increased today by $4,000 more, which
brings the total to $l25,00O. The COM
mittees state they have met with most
gratifying success, and that citizens as
a whole were inclined to help the mat
ter along by agreeing to take insurance.
This has been especially true, it is said,
of the business men, who have been
most liberal in aiding the forward
movement for the good of the city.
A suggestion has been made that is a
most excellent one az q would doubtless
help to hurry the natter to conclu-
sion. It is that some lady be secured to
solicit among the women of the city,
as there are. no doubt, many of them,
ii the matter were brought before them,
who would take some of the insurance.
II the right lady could be secured to do
this work it would doubtless be a sue
cess. While the deal is almost as good
as closed the last $4,000 will of course
be harder to get than any of the other,
and there are yet many who can aid in
helping the matter along by taking
their share. The conditions have been
fully explained before but each who has
not yet subscribed should, if he has the
interest of the city's commercial adj
vancement at heart, take at least a
small amount for every $1,000 will help
to swell the grand total of a half
million.
