G. w. Dutton. of Clinton, en- old Chi
cago & Northwestern engineer, spent
the day in the city. Mr.. Dutton came
to see what Marshalltown looks like,
to find any old friends If possible, and
see if ne could find any familiar sights
of years ago. While here he also took
occasion to visit the Iowa Soldiers
Home as he is a veteran OF the civil
war.
Mr.. Dutton ran the first Northwest
ern train into Boone, In May, 1863,
when there were but two houses IN
what is now the city of Boone, ana
when there were but four houses bullt
between Nevada and Boone Thirty
nine years ago today Mr.. button was
pulling a freight train west. When at
a point within two or three miles east
of State Center his engine blew up
and he was terribly injured. His flre-
man, John Young, of Cedar Rapids,
was instantly killed and Oscar Mar
tin, of Dewitt, head brakeman, VINO
was on the engine at the time. sus-
tanned broken collar bone and other
injuries. Mr.. Dutton sustained a
fractured skull, his face, neck, arms
and breast were scalded, his left arm
was injured at the elbow so that his
hand is crippled today. He was as
near dead as he could be and stu
live, and was brought to this city. He
lay In bed four weeks in a little hotei
near the depot, before he was able TO
even sit up in bed. 1t was three years
before Mr.. button was again able TO
take his engine, and he was IN active

Supervisors Complete Task of Official
Canvass Of Election Returns.
The board of supervisors, Tuesday
evening, completed the work of maxi
ing the official canvass of the cleo
ton returns. The figures. as origin
ally published in the table prepared by
the T.-R, show but very few changes.
The largest alteration found was in
the vote of Horace q. Deemer, for
judge of the supreme court, in which
a gain of ten votes was found in Iowa
township. Another discrepancy in Mr..
Deemer's vote, in the First ward, lost
five, and another, in State Center
township, lost one, so there Is diff :
ference Of but four votes In the total.
For county attorney c. H. Van Law is

MRS. TYNe's LECTURE.
First Of Hawthorne Club Series Proves
To Be Success.

First Of Hawthorne Club Series Proves
To Be Success.
An audience Of probably 100 ladies',
the majority of them club women, gath
cred at the D. T. Denmead residence,
3O6 East State street, Tuesday after
noon, to hear the lecture of Mrs. En-
ma Moffett Tying, Of New York City,
on the Sense and Sentiment Of Home
Making" given under the auspices of
the Hawthorne Club. Judging by this
spirit in which her address was receive
ed and the expressed appreciation of
some of her helpful suggestions, it was
success, not only in financial way.
but in the more lasting sense of real
good carried away by the audience.
The lecture was preceded by two
piano numbers. given by Miss Emily
Perkins, by request. They were an
Etude by Chopin in c minor, and AR
carolle," the latter being: one of Miss
Perkins own compositions. Mrs.
Tyng's opening remarks We're an ex-
PLANTATION of how she came to take up
the subject, in the exposition of which
she has become so proficient, that of
home economics, embracing domestic
science. Four years ago, at the great
world congress Of women, held at the
Paris exposition, she was asked to give
a paper on Club Life in America AS
An Educational Factor" Later, by re-
quest, Mrs. Tying presented Ethics of
Home Making" at the Buffalo expo
sition, and her present work is an evo-
luton of that paper. She gave the
lecture in many New England towns
before coming west. Previously, art,
literature, and music had been the
study of her life.
Mrs. Tying says the great mistake
made, by women's clubs is that they
began at the top, and are just now
climbing downstairs, to lay c. practi-
cal foundation. One most important
factor in this is an education in home
economics and domestic science, which
are now being taken UP by the vari-
Gus colleges. She said house is built,
but home must grow, and be conse-
Grated by life and precious associa-
lions. That there are two occupations
more totally unprepared for than any
others, namely, matrimony and house
keeping. That the need Of such pre-
paration is evident inasmuch as upon
the homemaker, must devolve the sus-
tainment Of trinity-physical, mental
and spiritual qualities. Development
Of the spiritual quality is the meat of
the home, inasmuch as the quality of
the latter is in the heart. The goal
to be desired is perfect balance be-
tween mentality and the soul, with the
body as sacred medium.
Mrs. Tying dwelt emphatically upon
the influence Of furnishings upon the
inmates of home. She said that
three words should be put upon the
lintels of our homes simplicity. SINGER
ity and serenity, the latter evolving
from the other two. She took up each
room of an average house and discuss
ed it's usages and how it might be i'm
proved, showing several articles OF
kitchenware and various tapestries. the
latter illustrative of the effects OBJ
tanned by color harmony. Mrs Tying
sincerely thanked the ladies OF Mar
shalltown for their gracious welcome,
and the way in which she had been
received into their beautiful homes.

PUTTING 1T STRONG.
But Doesn't It Look Reasonable

But DOeSnI u LUX nSdSOud0I0A
This may read as tho we were put

generally thought by the majority OF
people that dyspepsia, in it's chronic
form is incurable or practically so. But
we have long since shown that dys-
pepsia is durable, nor is it such a diff
ficult matter as at first appears.
The trouble with dyspeptics is that
they are continually dieting, starving
themselves, or going to opposite ex-
IRENE, or else deluging the already
oyerburdened stomach with "bitters,
"after-dinner pills." etc., which invar-
iably increase the difficulty even II in

recuperated and at the same time the
body nourished and sustained.
This is a great secret and this is
also the secret of the uniform success
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. This is
a comparatively new remedy, but Its
success and popularity leaves no doubt
as to it's merit.
The tablets will digest the food any
way, regardless of condition of stom-

ing to directions, is to eat an abund-
ance of good, wholesome food and use
the tablets before and after each meal,
and the result will be that the food
will be digested no matter how bad
your dyspepsia may be, because. as
before stated the tablets will digest
the food even if the stomach is wholly
inactive. To illustrate our meaning
plainly, if you take 1900 grains OF
meat. eggs or ordinary food and place
1t in a temperature of SO degrees, and
put with 1t one of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets it will digest the meat or eggs
almost as perfectly as If the meat was
enclosed within the stomach.
The stomach may be ever so weak,
vet these tablets will perform the work
of digestion and the body and brain
will be properly nourished, and at the
same time a radical. lasting cure of
dyspepsia will be made because the
much abused stomach will be given,
to some extent, a much needed rest.
Your druggist will tell you that OF all
the many remedies advertised to cure
dyspepsia none Of them have given SO
complete and general satisfaction as
6tuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and not
least in importance in these hard times
is the fact that they are also the
cheapest and give the most good for
the least money.

ACTION EXPECTED SOON
Believed That Library conr,ittee Of
the Board of Trustees Will Make
Recommendation on New Librarian
Thursday-Mrs. Haviland Likely to
be Chosen.

1t is more than probable that the
library committee of the board Of trus-
tees of the public library WILL at its
meeting tomorrow, recommend its Sc
lection of a new librarian. There is
also every reason to believe, altho this
Is not decisive, that Mrs. Grace K.
Haviland, of Chicago, will be the COM
mittees choice. This is the impression
gained thru conversation this morning
with members of the committee and of
the board. Mrs. Haviland is in the
city and Tuesday evening met the
members of the board informally at the
library building. She has made ia
vorable impression and is believed to
be capable.
Mrs. Haviland has had library train
ing thru a course of four years at the
University of Chicago library school.
She graduated from the Evanston high
school, also from college in Mont
gomery, Ala. Later she entered the
university for library work, and rec
emily spent six months cataloging the
Sterling, ILL.,, public library. Her APP
plication for the librarianship here,
made vacant by the resignation Of Miss
Ellen Howard Ray, has been in the
hands of the library committee for
several months. Mrs. Haviland was
in st. Paul, and stopped in the city on
her way home. She is being enter
tanned at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Merritt Greene.
