Barber Asphalt Company Will
Pay Back What City Paid
in Paving Cases
COSTS ToTALED ABOUT $1,000
Mayor o. L. lnaIedue Has Finally Sc
cured This Concession, Which Barred
the Way for Settlement Of Paving
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Now Only
!, Matter of Few Weeks.

The way is cleared now for the set
t1ement of the payment for the asphalt
paving, which is now distant but a
comparatively short time. The greatest
been overcome, and stipulation of
agreement, a contract of settlement,
will be prepared in short time. Mayor
O. L. Ingledue, who returned from Des
Moines yesterday. after conference
with j. HI. Killmar, secured from him
the concession that the Barber Asphalt
Paving Company pay back to the city
all it had spent in fighting the Brown
and Calhoun paving cases. This sum
will aggregate about $1,000, most of
which represents attorneys fees.
Correspondence touching on this
item of settlement has been in progress
between the mayor and Mr.. killmar
for about month. Mr.. Killmar held
that the company could not be expect
ed to reimburse the city for legal serv-
ices in it's paving cases, but Mayor
Ingledue held that the city should be
treated in the settlement just as the
private individual was going to be. me
paving company originally agreed to
repay to individuals all money paid
out for attorneys fees or court costs.
For time negotiations were close TO
being called Off, and the prospects OF
settlement seemed to be going gllm-
mering, but Mr.. Killmar finally con-
sented, and now little remains to be
done but entering into the formal con-
tract of settlement.

JoE's LUCK.

Drew a Prize in Matrimonial Lottery.
"Refore we were married my nus
band was coffee drinker and subject
to severe attacks Of sick headache,
which interfered with his duties as SUI
perintendent of large factory" writes
a young Mass. matron.
II had made up my mind that cot
fee was at least partly to blame, and
that T could cure him after marriage
by the use of Postum Food Coffee
"When I told my younger sister
about it, she laughed and said, Jus.
wait and see! After you are married
you'll find that Joe will have his coffee
anyway
81 proceeded gradually, first elimin-
ating by degrees the pastry and. sweets
from the daily menu, and as his meals
were always daintily served and APP
petizing he began to have faith in his
wifes ability to cook.
Meantime his headaches became
less frequent, but did not cease alto
gether. When the time was ripe and 1
proposed to use Postum Food Coffee
he consented upon the promise that he
should have the old kind of coffee at
his Sunday breakfast. He grew fond
of the new food drink, however, and
noted that after drinking the old cof-
fee on Sundays he suffered from I'M
steady nerves and a dull heavy feel
ing. that he never had on the days
when he drank Postum. The result
was that at last he said, would rath-
err have the Postum Food Coffee Sun
day morning, too, if you don't mind,
my dear. The old kind makes me feel
like a fool all day. You may imagine
how ready / was to fall in with his
suggestion. The old kind of coffee has
been banished from our table for more
than years now; Joe's headaches are
only memory and he always has
steady nerves and a clear brain to meet
the exacting demands of his business.
On hot summer days he re:lfshes Il
glass of clear, cold Postum with
squeeze of lemon, at noon, finding it
most refreshing.
I'm the winter / make up pot of
Postum Coffee in the evening, boiling
it Is minutes, and let it set on the
back of the range till morning when it
is heated and ready to serve in few

EGGS HIGH IN EAST.
New York Prices High and Chicago
kiaher Than a Few Weeks AGO.

Because of biddy's inclination to rear
a family after a winters laying, the
price of eggs has begun to soar up
wards in the metropolitan markets,
where the demand can not be filled.
Locally the price has not yet been af-
fected, altho the same conditions pre-
vail. Because of decrease in the sup
ply, New York eggs are retailing at %
cents per dozen. and in Chicago 20
cents is the ruling price. Here the
price is held the same as 1t has been
for several weeks. III cents. No drop is
expected until after Easter.
The first laying of the average hen
is now practically finished, and with
the approach OF warmer weather the
hen naturally wants to follow natures
instinct and hatch a brood of peeps.
This reduces the number Of laying
hens. but not the demand for eggs. and
higher prices necessarily prevail.
Swift & Co. are paying 2 cents more
for fresh eggs this week than at any
time since February.

Here's Marshalltown proof to back
up our statement:
81 D. A. Penquite, of 511 South Fifth

marvel. Two applications of it cured
me of itching hemorrhoids, which, de-
spite the use of innumerable remedies
said to be sure cures for just such con-
ditions, defied all my efforts to get the
slightest relief. let alone any perma-
nent result. A relative of mine, we'll
nigh discouraged by repeated fail
ures to get assistance for hemorrhoids,
thoroughly tested this ointment as
well as l. His experience, added to
my own, compels me to say that my
appreciation of Doan's Ointment can
far better be understood by myself
