Have Been Most Successful, Thirty
four Having Already Been Taken In
to the Church.
The special meetings that have been
in progress at the First Baptist church
since January Z under the direction of
DR.. Lamkin. were brought to close
Thursday evening before an audience
that filled all of the seats and many
chairs. DIR. Lamkin preached on The
Symbolism of the Cross" and his SER
mon was a recognition of the supreme
place the cross has in the worlds his
tory. Mr.. Ingersoll ridiculed the cross
as an element of barbarism, but with
out it there would be no such civiliza-
ton as modern times knows. 1t sends
it's influence into every department of
the worlds activities, and becomes the
focus of the worlds love. The audi
ence was attentive throut, often hush
ed by the mellowing influence of the
occasion.
At the close of the meeting seven
teen were baptized, making thirty-four
members thus far as the direct result
of the meetings. There are others to
be added tc the list, who will be re-
ceived by baptism Sunday night. The
forceful presentation of the gospel, en-
phatic, yet loving, has made this the
most valuable revival remembered by
many people in Marshalltown.
DR.. Lamkin left early this morning
for Salisbury, Mo-, where he will re-
main for a few days visit with a sis
ter. From there he will go to Eldora-
do, Kas., to begin another series OF
meetings Sunday. Mr.. H. j. Lloyd, the

WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU.
Few People Realize tho Importance OF
Good Digestion Until 1t is Lost.


Many people suffer from dyspepsia
and do not know it. They feel mean,
out of sorts, peevish, do not sleep we'll,
do not have good. keen appetite, DO
not have the inclination and energy
for physical or mental work they once
had, but at the same time do not feel
any particular pain or distress in the
stomach. Yet all this is the result o.
poor digestion, an insiduious form o.
dyspepsia which can only be cured "
a remedy specially intended to cure
it and make the digestive ORGANS act
naturally, and properly digest the food
eaten. Bitters, after dinner pills ana
nerve tonics will never help the tfou-
BILE; they don't reach it. The new
medical discovery does. 1t is called
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and is a
specific for dyspepsia and indigestion.
It cures because it thoroughly d1gests
all wholesome food taken into the
stomach, whether the stomach Is in
good working order or not.
Stuart's DyspepsAl Tablets, by di-
costing the food, instead of making
the worn out stomach do all the work,
Eiyes it a much needed rest and cure
Of dyspepsia is the natural result.
When you are nervous. run down
and sleepless, don't make the common
mistake Of supposing your nervous
system needs treatment and fill your
stomach with powerful nerve tonics
which make you feel good for little
while only, to fall back farther than
ever.
Your nerves are all right, but they
are starved, they want food.
Nourish them with wholesome every
day food and plenty of 1t. well d.
Eested, and you can laugh at nerve
tonics and medicine.
But the nerves will not be nour-
ished from a weak, abused stomach,
but when the digestion has been made
perfect by the use of this remedy all
nervous symptoms disappear.
Who ever heard of man or woman
blessed with a vigorous digestion and
good appetite being troubled with
their nerves?
Good digestion means a strong ner-
vous system, abundance of energy,
and capacity to enjoy the good things
Of life.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will GER
tainly set your stomach and digestive
organs right; they can't help but do
It because they nourish the body by
digesting the food eaten, and rest the
stomach.
You get nourishment and rest at one
and the same time, and that is all the
worn out dyspeptic needs to build him
up and give new life to every organ
and an added zest to every pleasure.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are a
god-send to the army of men and
women with weak stomachs and
nerves and justly merits the claim Of
being one Of the. most worthy medical
discoveries of the time.

Moro on the Water Meter Question.
Editor Times-Republican: Will you
please grant me space to answer the
article in your paper of the Sth inst,
signed Another Water Consumer" in
which he appears to think that Water
Consumer" is mistaken about the city
being in the business of selling water.
He says: 1.-The position of the water
works department seems to be that
the city is supplying it's constituents
with water and distributing the ex-
pense among those supplied as
equitably as possible"
Now how can this be so? You fur
nish water and charge for it. Is this
not in the business of selling water?
Your second point is you distribute
can this be correct? You admit you
have Disseminated in favor of one
class of consumers as against the
other by ordering meters installed on
one class Of water service and omit

a cost of $12 and the other goes free.

Five cent hogs continue to be a good,

case two weeks ago, when premium
hogs touched cents. 1t would appear
that farmers have made up their minds
that their hogs are worth cents,

that they can afford to feed. they
are holding out for 5 cents, and
if the market falls below that point
they wait until it comes back to their

three quarters of cent under that of
today for the same grade, and the
