SERMONS ON POLITICS
Phases of City Campaign
Touched Upon by Preachers
In Sunday Sermons
JONES FAvoRs COMPROMISE
JONES FAvoRs COMPROMISE
Baptist Minister Wishes Candidates
Might Come to an Agreement That
Vote Might be concentrated-Rev
Gould Says Church People Should
Support Only One Candidate.

From three pulpits of the city sun
day the alleged evils of municipal gov
eminent. the needs of the city. ana
the many questions of the present
campaign. in its different phases. and
from various viewpoints, were dis
cussed in sermons. Rev. Elijah Brown
Jones. at the Baptist church. Rev. c..
L. Gould at the Methodist, and Rev.
w. Fl. Pilot at the Friends church,
either at the morning or evening ser
vice discussed the situation.
Rev. Jones addressed his congrega-
ton in the evening, and spoke for
about half an hour but discussed the
subject from no particular STANDPOINT.
The gist of his remarks was that a
compromise should be effected between
the candidates Egermayer and
Dickson and in the candidacy of the
new man the prohibition question
should be shifted to the background.
and not given such prominence. but
after election petitions should be cir
culated in an effort to rid the city of
the saloon.
Rev. DR.. Could in his Numbering
the People, in the morning, spoke
from the text in Numbers where Moses
numbered the people of Israel before
setting out for the promised land. Gods
modern way he said. of numbering the
people, was at the ballot box. a duty
which every man should go about con-
scientiously, and the man who failed
to vote. or whose vote was sold, should
be disfranchised. The most important
of all he said. was that the voters of
the city be not divided into separate
camps, but that they join forces on one
candidate if results We're to be accom-
plished. Rev. Gould spoke in only
general way, and did not argue the
details of the local situation.
Rev. Pilot, at the Friends church IN
the evening. touched on the local stua-
ton in a general way in his sermon on
the subject on "A Man for the Breach"
He advocated clean politics. clean city
government and the rallying of the vot-
ers around the standard of those men
in POLITICAL life and position of in
fluence which would result in the
b, tterment of municipal affairs.

One of the Early Business Men Of the
Citv Dies In PENNSYLVANIA. {.

Simon Stern, one of the pioneer bust
ness men of Marshalltown, brother of
Moses Stern and the late p. A. Stern,
died Friday at Allegheny City, Pa.
after long illness. Mr.. Stern has
been in poor health for two or three
years, being a sufferer with rheuma-
tism and other ailments due to his adj
vanced years.
The first clothing store to be estab-
lished in Marshalltown was by Stern
Bros, In 1861, the members of the firm
being Moses Stern, now of this city,
and his younger brother Simon Stern.
The business was conducted by and
under the name of Stern Bros. until
1873, when another brother, P. A.
Stern. bought the business. Upon dis
posing of his interests here Mr.. Simon
Stern left for his native country Ger
many, accompanied by his wife and son
Leopold The latter, the first day after
the family had reached Germany, was
the victim of an accident, and was
burned to death by the fall of a kero-
sene lamp. Mr.. and Mrs. Stern remain
ed in Germany two years. and upon
their return took up their abode at
Bradford, Pa Two years later they
moved to Allegheny City, where they
have since resided.

the flour nor cook the food properly.
Frank Bryant, IL teamster of st. An
thony, broke the drifted roads and
hauled coal to the sufferers, and after
Mayne's death donated the use of his
team to take the body as for as
Charles Middletons, where it was nee
essary to change horses. on its way to
the cemetery Bryant also hauled the
family on the first four miles of the
journey to the county farm, and be-
cause he had done so much work,
purse of $40 was made up by the st.
Anthony people and presented him.
Mr. Hixson says that the people of
ST. Anthony feel that they did right in
taking the matter in their own hands,
and removing the family to the county
farm. They only wish now that they
had acted sooner, and taken them
weeks ago. instead of waiting for the
township authorities to act. Henry
Thake, of St Anthony, managed the
task of removing the family. and no
small task it was. either. Henry Hart
wig. August Schaper, George F'roh-
vein. Henry Pfantz and others, prom
nent German farmers living between
ST. Anthony and State Center, broke
the roads and furnished teams to do
the work. 1t was necessary to change
teams at State Center. and it was with
difficulty that the family was got to go
to the county farm.
Also Bury the Body.
The st. Anthony people also took
personal charge of the burial of the
dead man, after waiting for the towns
shin 1j1th DIitjpS tO and NpI-
nesday. two days after the man died,
buried the body at Illinois Grove. The
roads We're so bad that they had to be
broken by teams. In this work the
Jordan brothers and John Curley fig
ured prominently. Mrs Mayne wanted
her husband buried at Illinois Grove,
but before they knew of the ST. An
thony peoples action the Minerva
township authorities made arrange
ments to bury the body at Clemens.
A grave was dug there, but there was
no body to put in it.
Have to Guard House.
1t was necessary. after Mayne died,
for a guard to be placed at the house,
because OF Mrs. Mayne's actions in at
tempts at self-destructon. Mr.. Beck
says that the woman tried to kill her
self by sticking her head in the stove.
but was prevented from so doing. She
threatened to use a butcher knife, in
another attempt and again choked hers
self until she was black in the face.
The st. Anthony people also feared for
the lives of the children, and at all
times, both day and night, some one
was on guard at the Mayne home.

CHURCH DEBT WIPED OUT.
coneregationaIists Will Welcome New
Pastor With No Church Debt.

Rev. l.. B. Hix, the new pastor of the
Congregational church, will take
charge of the work in this city March
1. with the satisfaction of knowing
that he begins his work without any
debt whatsoever hanging over the
church. During the past year or more,
because of the fact that the chrch had
no regular pastor, a debt of $780, for
current expenses, has been incurred.
Directly after the morning sermon by
DR.. E. A. Steiner Sunday, Mr.. c. G.
Urine, treasurer of the society. an
nounced the fact that the debt was
still hanging over the church, and 1T
was the earnest wish of the trustees
that it be raised before the new pastor
arrived. The blackboard method was
used, and Mr.. Urine, the trustees and
Dr. Steiner at once began the work of
receiving subscriptions. 1t was a
small task, and in fifteen minutes
$500 was raised.

".Ah, it is women who have given the
costliest hostage to fortune. Out'1nto
the battle of life they have sent their
best beloved with fearful odds against
them. Oh, by the dangers they have
dared; by the hours of patient watch
ing over beds where helpless children
lay; by the incense of ten thousand
prayers waited from their gentle lips
to heaven, I charge You give them
power to protect along life's treacher-
Gus highway those whom they have so
loved.-Frances r. Willard"

THINK 1T OVER.
Something You Can See in Any Res
taurant or Cafe.

taurant or Cate.
A physician puts the query: Have
You never noticed in any large res
taurant at lunch or dinner time the
large, number of hearty, vigorous old
men at the tables: whose ages run
from 60 to so years; many of them
bald and all perhaps gray but none OF
them feeble or senile?
Perhaps the spectacle is so common
as to have escaped your observation
or comment, but nevertheless it is an
object lesson which means something.
If YOU will notice what these hearty
old fellows are eating you will observe
that they are not munching bran
crackers nor gingerly picking their
way thru a menu card of new tangled
health foods: on the contrary they
seem to prefer a juicy roast OF beet'
q properly turned loin of mutton. and
even the deadly broiled lobster is not
altogether ignored.
The point of all this is that 4 vigor-
GUS old age depends upon good dises-
ton and plenty of wholesome food and
not upon dieting and an endeavor TO
live upon bran crackers.
There is a certain class of food
cranks who seem to believe that meat,
coffee, and many other good things
are rank poisons, but these cadaverous,
0ickly-looking individuals are walk
Ing condemnation of their own theor-
les.
The matter in a nutshell is that if
the stomach secretes the natural di-
FESTIVE Juices in sufficient quantities,
any wholesome food will be promptly
digested; if the stomach does not do
so, and certain foods cause distress,
one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's after each meal will remove all
difficulty, because they supply just
what every weak stomach lacks, pep
sin, hydro chloric acid, diastase and
nuX.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do not
act upon the bowels and in fact are
not strictly medicine as they act al
most entirely upon the food eaten, di-
costing it thoroughly and thus gives a
much needed rest and giving an APP
petite for the next meal.
OF people who travel. nine out of ten
use Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets, know
Ing them to be perfectly safe to use
at any time and also having found out
by experience that they are a safe
GUARD dSdlllSl III any lol
and eating, as they have to, at all
hours, and all kinds of food. the trav-
cling public for years have pinned
their faith to Stuarts Tablets.
Ali druggists sell them at so cents
for full sized packages and any drug
gist from Maine to California, if his
opinion were asked, will say that Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets is the most
popular and successful remedy for any
stomach trouble.

be revised before the next game, and
instead of continuing or the old plan,
