HEALTH IMPROVING
Ex.Mayor Jones Is Much Better Since
Phenomenal Kraus and the Master
Specialists Took His Case.

There are few people in the city OF
Marshalltown who do not love l.. B.
Jones, former mayor Of the city. There
are also few people in the city who
would not love anyone who brought
health and happiness back to the be-
loved ex-mayor.
Reasoning along the above lines, 1t
would not take long to show that ev-
eryone in Marshalltown must love
Phenomenal Kraus and the Hot
Springs doctors. Why? Because they
are bringing back to Mr.. Jones, all OF
his one time health. For years he has
been an invalid.
An offer of $500 was made to Phen-
omenal Kraus If he would have his
famous master specialists at the instl-
tute in Marshalltown treat Mr.. Jones.
Phenomenal Kraus refused the money
but had his specialists take up the
case. Now Mr.. Jones is improving.
The same things can be done for any
one at the Marshalltown institute, III
West Main street, If the people will call
on the learned gentlemen in charge.

PROTECTION ALREADY GIVEN.
Mayor InsIedus Foresees Chance Of
Precaution Which Has Already Been


Mayor Ingledue has addressed to
Chief Kirby, of the fire department, a
letter in which he asks the chief to
make some az Engagements with Mana
ger Busby, of the Odeon, looking to-
ward the stationing of a fireman in
the theater on every night perform
ance is given. The mayor, thinking IT
might be we'll to take advance pracau-
lions in the case of fire, thousrn of the
plan now that the season is on. Chief
Kirby and Mr.. Busby. however had
already taken the precaution. which
wasaunknown to the new mayor who
had never had occasion to look into the
matter before. Chief Kirby and Man
ager Busby made arrangements two
years ago, whereby each night the
Odeon doors are opened, member OF
the fire department is admitted, ana
remains on duty from 1880, or the time
the doors are opened, until every per-
son is out of the theater after the per-
Torrance is over. While there has been
no danger so far, the plan is being con-
tinued this season, and is a permanent
fixture. Manager Busby has installed
a chemical system thruout the house,
which Is under the inspection OF the
fire chief. and within ready use OF the
fireman on duty at the theater. The
mayor was very much pleased when ne
was informed that the precaution mad

TEAM TO eRlNNELL.

High School Eleven Played College
Team This Afternoon.
The local high school foot ball team,
accompanied by Coach Carl Kent and
Principal q. V. Brumbaugh, repre-
senting the faculty, went to Grinnell
this morning, and this afternoon open
ed the season by playing the team OF
Grinnell college. Before leaving neith-
er Captain Perry nor Coach Kent was
able to say positively just what the
exclusive of the guards, the players
for today had been picked. There is no
probability, however, that the team
will stand as picked today, as there
are. number Of likely heavy candi-
dates for thu, line positions who, for
one reason or another, we're unable to
play today.
The final selection of the players will.
not be made for week or two. The
team will probably line up today as
follows: Johnson, center; Leise, Kel-
sey, Boucher or Frank Hull. for
guards; Albert Hull and Archie Kirk,
tackles; George Kirk and Mead, tack
les; Whitney,, quarter; Perry and
Woodward, half backs, and Shove, full!
back; Estel, Adams and Smith, substi-
tutes. Thomas Meickley and Thomas
Fuller accompanied the team.
Just how much of a showing the
team will he able to make against
Grinnell cannot be foretold. The local
team is green, and the players have
been shifted so often in an effort to find
out what is in them, that none, except
the old men, are acquainted with the
positions they will play. The team Is
also handicapped today by lack of
weight in the line, disadvantage
which will be overcome later, when
new and heavier material has had time
to develop.

the work of George AIDE, than whom
no American hulnorist has been more
widely read or more thoroughly en-
joyed. 1t is said Of Peggy from Par
is that 1t possesses qualities distinct
from the average musical play. First,
there is consistent and logical story.
Again, the narrative is skillfully witty.
and the action Is carried out by droll
and amusing characters. Indeed. the
character portrayals in Peggy from
Paris" are especially notable. They
are humorous caricatures of amusing
types, and they are moved through lu-
dicrous complications. All the while
they give voice to the brilliant wit and
satire for which Mr.. AIDE is celebrated.
In music as we'll as In comedy Peggy
from Paris is richly endowed. Will
lam Lorraine wrote the 1nr-
sic. He is the composer of
Ramona" and "Salome" and
were he to rest his claim to faire on
these two compositions alone he w lid
be entitled to no small distinction. h at
other work has won him recognition
among musicians and music lovers,
and greatest Of his achievements are
the melodies in Peggy from Paris
Many Of the musical numbers have be-
come the popular airs in New York.
Boston and Chicago and other cities
in which Peggy from Paris has been
heard. Among the musical hits are.
'Emmaleen," college Days." THE
Girl Who Comes in from the West
Gay Fleurette," and "Lil, l Like You"
They are spirited, swinging and
catchy Indeed. this musical comedy
surpasses many another play of its kind
in the number and attractiveness of
its ensembles. The choruses are sung
to the accompaniment of graceful and
fanciful dancing SO that life and grace
and animation are blended with the
melodies. The company which VIII

OF the best ever organized for musical
