morrow Evening.
B. G. Whitney's beautiful production
of the "Show Girl" or the Magic
Cap" will be seen at the Odeon to-
evening, Dec. 5. 1t is descrlb-
ed as a jolly bit of tomfoolery. The
book is by the author of those fore
most successes: 1892" Excelsior,
Jr.," "The Girl From Paris" Little
Christopher" etc. H. l.. Hearth, who is
co-author of "The Tenderfoot," and E..
w. Corliss are responsible for the mu-
sic, the tunefulness of which is largely
responsible for the cordial reception
accorded this piece in New York, Bos-
ton, and all the other large cities
where the play has been produced.
mong the numbers which have become
popular and are receiving encore after

champagne and Terrapin," Psyche
"Reggie's Family Tree" "Chingaling

AS whole, the attraction is one of
those conglomerations of everything
that is attractive in the way of scenery,
exquisite costumes funny comedians,
innumerable specialties. good music,
and above all, pretty girls. Indeed, in
this latter respect, Mr.. Whitney has
certainly outdond himself, for it is
doubtful If a more attractive bevy of
young ladies was ever seen on any
stage. 1t is worthy of the patronage
of the most refined playgoers, and it Is

INTERURBANs
Result Of Their Building in Other Parts
of Iowa Has Been to Increase Popu.
lation in Towns and Townships.

An editorial in the T.-R. of October
| s, 1906, on "Interurbans and Popula-
ton" gives the following interesting
information. San interurban railway
officer at Clinton, in securing some
census statistics to aid in determining
the question of extensions discovered
that in townships where interurbans
are operating there has been a large
increase in the population, whereas the
figures for the state showed decrease
Of 10000 people between 1900 and 1905.
1t is shown that not all the benefit ac-
crues to the cities.i
On the Waterloo Waverly interurban
the population in the townships. ex-
elusive of towns, in 1900, numbered 81
s45, and in 1905 the population was A.
8O5
Marshalltown has not built one mile
Of railroad of any description in fifteen
years, and her population is $4,000.
What is Waterloo's population increase
in that time compared with Marshall
town? Is it because Waterloo has been
adding to both her railroad and inter-
urban mileage?
On the Cedar Rapids-Iowa City in
,terurban the population Of the town
ships, exclusive of towns, in 1900, NUM-
bered 11,512, and in 1905 the population
was 1886.
Both Cedar Rapids and Iowa City
have added railroad and interurban
mileage in the past fifteen years.
On the Des Moines-Colfax interur-
ban the population of the townships,
exclusive of towns, in 1900, numbered
1888, and in 1905 the population was
9,17S.
1.-THE population in thej towns thru
which the interurban lines run has in
creased in almost every instance from
25 to so per cent"
What per cent of increase has Mar
shalltown shown in population in ten
years?
The census of 1905 showed that the
states population had decreased 10000
in five years. What is wanted is to
get back the 10000 we lost and then
some. Experience has shown that the
interurban is destined to become a
great factor in building up the city,
town, township and state.
Interurbans mean more intensified
farming, smaller farms, with more peo-
pie living on them.
Boone has interurbans now building.
FIT. Dodge has 1nterurbans now build
ing.
Des Moines has interurbans now
buildings.
Oskaloosa, Ottumwa, Cedar Rapids,
Iowa City, Clinton, Dubuque. Daven-
port, Muscatine. all have interurbans
built or in construction.
Marshalltown is in the center Of them
all. Shall we lose the chance we now
have and lay back, driving capital
away, while our neighbors are awake
to the interurbans and building.
Let all stop knocking" and COM

Most diseases start in the alimentary
canal-stomach and bowels.
great deal of our stomach and
bowel troubles come from eating too
much starchy and greasy food.
The stomach does not digest any of
the starchy food we eat-white bread,
pastry, potatoes, OATS etc.-thesa
things are digested in the small intes-
tines, and if we eat to much, as most
Of us do, the organs that should di-
gest this kind of food are overcome by
excess of work, so that fermentation,
Indigestion, and long train of ails re-
suit.
Too much fat also is hard to digest
and this is changed into acids, sour
stomach, belching gases, and bloat-
ed, heavy feeling.
In these conditions change from
indigestible foods to Grape-Nuts will
work wonders in not only relieving the
distress but in building UP strong
digestion, clear brain and steady
nerves. A Wash. woman writes:
