LOCAL COMMENT

There has been a decided falling off
of marriage license business in the
county since the beginning of the new
year. Can it be that the example set
by the new clerk of courts and his
deputy is any way responsible? If such
is the case it would pay the preachers
and justices to promote marriage
syndicate, and whip the new officials
into line.
The Grundy County Democrat face
tiously remarks that if the MARSHALL
town interurhan had a Mrs. Chadwick
as a promoter there would be no
trouble to raise funds to build the pro-
posed road, and adds: ut seems as tho
if woman can get Million on a few
forged notes as security, nalf that
amount should be raised on the secur-
ity and prospects the Marshalltown
company has to offer"
The Grundy Center paper is getting
anxious over the interurban, and its
continued references to the situation
show the interest that is manifested in
the northern terminal of the proposed
line. AT the recent meeting of the in
terurban directors, however. the state-

A Lot Of Trouble From Too Much
Starchy Food.
A little boy of eight years whosei
parents did not feed him on the right
kind Of food was always nervous and
suffered from weak condition OF the
stomach and bowels. Finally he was
taken down with appendicitis and after
the operation, the DOCTOR knowing that
his intestinal digestion was very weak,
put him on Grape-Nuts twice day.
He rapidly recovered and about two
months thereafter. his father states,
"He had grown to be strong. muscular
and sleep soundly, weighs 81 POUNDS,
and his whole system is in a fine con-
dition of health" Name given by
Postum Co, Battle Creek, Mich.
1t is plain that if he had been put
on Grape-Nuts at an earlier period In
his life, and kept from the use Of foods
that he could not digest, he never
would have had appendicitis. That
disease is caused by undigested food
decaying in the stomach and bowels.

the active cause Of appendicitis, and
this is more marked with people who

parts Of wheat and barley, and by the

not large enough to hold all who came.
After the Iowa Male Quartet had sung
and Miss Van Horn Of Albion, had
recited. Frederick Larrabee, of Fort
Dodge, attorney for the state meat pro-
ducers' association, was introduced.
Following him, j. J. Ryan, of Fort

ton, spoke. Mr. Ryan's speech was
objects of the organization, the dis
elimination of the present railroad
rate, poor railroad service, and the
remedies by which relief and fair
treatment for the shippers might re-

said in part as follows:
"The object of the Corn Belt Meat
Producers Association, briefly stated,
is to obtain, if possible, for producers
of meat and farm products in general,
prices that will put that industry on a
stable and profitable basis. To pre-

buy and sell.
To-day the stockmen propose to
compel the railroad companies to re-
cognize the raan who is the creator of
this vast tonnage of freight, instead
of the man 10 whom they sell it,
"The legislation recommended by
President Roosevelt to give the inter-
state commerce commission the power
to change an unreasonable freight rate
to a reasonable one, should have the
support of every farmer in the state

nearly filled downstairs and fairly well
so I'm the balconies. The entertain
ment was in the nature of lecture

tone accomplishments to popular piano
selections, large number of beautl-
full stereopticon views, showing the
beauties of natural and bird life, inter-
spersed with various bird calls and In
tercsting descriptions of the pictures
and OF his various experiences. Per-
haps the views, In many of which KEEL

those showing both human and bird
life on Bird Rock, an extraordinarily
lonely and dangerous spot in the Gulf
Of st. Lawrence which he stated, had
pie, aside from the government inspec-
tors, in 300 years. He also told of his
associations with the famous John
Burroughs, and showed pictures of
the latter's most unique home.
Kellogg's warbling Is 81 gift which,
it is claimed, is possessed by no other
person, it being a. birth gift and not
an accomplishment. He first commence
menced to reproduce whisper songs In
his infancy, and is now able to record
the most delicate notes from the birds
themselves by registering their count
less calls and songs In a monograph
especially prepared for that purpose.
He claims to be scientist in no sense
whatever, and portrays bird life from
the standpoint of the bird lover. and
not from that of the ornithologist. Born
in the heart of the Sierra Nevadas his
father naturalist who never shot

life. Kellogg has followed in his par
ents footsteps, and for over thirty
years has spent seven months out OF
the year in sweet communion with ma
ture herself. He believes firmly that
birds can reason and think, and ar
CUES from the perfect harmony theory,
that absence of fear drives away all
danger from wild creatures and vice
versa. Kellogg has a range of vibra-
tory tones covering over nine and one
half octaves, and because of the Pc
culiar formation of his throat is able
to perfectly reproduce, upon hearing
them, the calls and songs of birds, his
lips being used in the same way

Preserving Health and Beauty.
Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature. but
few realize it's value when taken into
the human system for the same clean
sing purpose.
Charcoal Is a remedy that the more
you take Of it the better; it is not
drug at all, but simply absorbs the gas
es and impurities always present In
the stomach and intestines and car
ries them out Of the system
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking drinking or after eating on
ions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
teeth and further acts rs a natural and
sminently safe cathartic.

collect in the stomach ANN bowels 1T
disinfects the mouth and M"oat from

All druggists sell charcoN IN one
form or another, but probably the best
charcoal and the most for the money

are composed OF the finest powdered

In the form of large, pleasant tasting

The daily use of these lozenges will

possible harm can result from their

the benefits of charcoal, says: Il ad-
wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all
patients suffering from gas In the

reception given by Mrs. Trego at hel
new home on Wednesday afternoon.

Travellers Gossip.
(Tn the Tourist Sleeper.)

Some travellers can't sleep while the
train is moving and others can't sleeK
till it starts. Everybody wants lower
berth, and wants to talk till he is ready
to turn in, and then wonders why peo
pie can't be quiet.
A fellow going west over the Northern
Pacific few days ago asked the porter
to make up his bed so he could ride fee
foremost, saying he could not stand to
ride ten minutes the other way as it
would make him deathly sick. The por-
ter fixed it for him and he went to bed
just before the train reached Auburn,
Washington where it turns on the Y and
runs backwards from there to Seattle, a
distance of about thirty miles. The fell
low had fine sleep and was we'll salts
fed till he got some information, and
then he was about half mad.
One of the big ferries of the world is
at Porta Costa, California, where three
trains run on the boat and are moved
across the bay and going again in about
twenty minutes. This is on the South
ern Pacific between Portland and San
Francisco, and passenger trains cross it
in daylig hit going both ways.
DR.. W. w. Paling, formerly of Poca-
tello and Mackay but who is now living
in Boise, returned last week from visit
to Montreal, and went home via. Seattle
and Portland because he could make
that long circuit cheaper than he could
60 direct. He said the people on the
trains and steamers down towards Mon
treal kept mentioning to him that he
must be sure to 60 up on some peak
they have there, and get view from
the summit. The doctor said, "Why it
was just lump on the landscape!" A
western man wouldn't 60 across lot to
get view from it-unless it was in his
pasture and he was hunting the COW.

coming west this year to see the expo
sition will have a fit when they get some
real mountain views such as we have
out here"
