"a 10000 Club"

r. w. Cooley thinks a 100000 Club
would be a good thing to organize ane
all work together to make Marshall
town a city of 10000 people. He says:
Health and sanitation, public utili-
ties. educational facilities, accessibility
these, / take it, are the primary es-
In the first three Marshalltown is moi
excelled by any city in the west. L:
the fourth Marshalltown may and
should be materially strengthened by
one or more interurban roads. To all
of these add grit and aggressiveness
and 10000 inhabitants will sooner or
later be ours.
constant striving, individually and
collectively, is needed and a Boosters
Club seems the best means to the end
Only, perhaps, the 100000 Club might
be a title that would better indicate a
definite purpose.
1--WE cannot all assist directly in Sc
curing factories. Few of us can invest
in much real estate, or erect costly
buildings or employ labor But all of
us can help in building up the indus
tries we already have. or may here
after secure, and all of us should dc
what we can to increase the volume
of business annually transacted in
Marshalltown. Let our motto be:
Buy at home and buy that which is
made at home
therein lies the housewives oppor-
tunity to assist in boosting MARSHALL
town toward the 10000 mark.

Says brakes Arc In Mo Way Interest
ed In Search for Her Father.
Mrs. Bernicc Casey. 5o7 Frederick
street, who figures prominently IN a
story sent out from Denver, to the eff
feet that she was in search of her
father Or. G. G. Maxwell. and had
charged that a relative was keeping
her father secreted to force her 10 sign
away a trust willed by Governor Drake
to her father for her. Wh"h
interviewed, Wednesday evening, de-
MED emphatically all and every part OF
the story which refers in amy way TO
to any member of the Drake FANNY.
Mrs. Casey has been searching for her
father, but she does not believe that
knowledge of his Whereabouts is being
withheld from her. altho she has not
been able to find him. Mrs. Casey mas
requested the Masonic lodge OF Denver
to assist her in finding her father, but
in her letter. she says no reference was
made to any member of the Drake fam
lily The separation of Dr. Maxwell
who formerly lived in Denver. but new
er IN Marshalltown, came about sew
cnteen years ago, when Mrs. Casey was
married. Since then Mrs. Casey has
never seen her father, but has heard
from him Indirectly She believes a
relative whom she refused 10 name,
had had some part in causing the faith
or to apparently cease to care for his
daughter During these years of sep
aration Mrs Casey had heard her faith
er had become wealthy. Her effort to
locate her parent was caused priinafi-
ly by little advertisement which was
published in one of the Des Moines
papers among the classified advertise
ments last summer. This advertise
ment read that IL Mrs Bernice Casey
would communicate with her heart sick
father, who longed to hear from her,
the father would be greatly relieved.
To it was signed DIR. G. Maxwell, Ven
dome Hotel Leadvi1le, Col" Mrs. Cas-
ely at once wrote TO the advertiser
whom she of course thought to be her
father. But no reply came, and let
ter to the manager of the Vendome
hotel of Leadville, brought the reply
that Dr. G. Maxwell was unknown at
the hotel, and had never stopped there
Mrs Casey then wrote the worshipful
master of one Of the Denver Masonic
lodges, asking assistance in her search
as her father was Mason This is
evidently the letter which started the
story. But it brought no reply, and
there the search stopped. Mrs. Casey
is the wife of Morris Casey, an employee
of the Great Western railroad. The
family has lived here for three ye9s.
and before moving here they lived at
Oelwein.

Happiness in a

sary For Mans Sustenance and
Rrinos Perfect Health.


All authorities agree that fourteen
elements are needed in the human pody
TO sustain perfect health and that
these must be supplied in the food
taken into the system. Nature mas
provided us with one single article Of
food containing all of these fourteen
elements in the exact proportions ne
cessary to supply our bodies with VI
taliuy, strength and heat. This food,
so wonderful in it's composition, Is
wheat and intelligent men ana women
are coming to realize more and more
that in the whole of the wheat is louhd
the secret of health and happiness
Rich in the nitrates, or muscle-mak-
ing elements the carbonates, or neat
producing elements, and the phos-
phates. or brain and nerve-naking ele-
ments, the whole grain of wheat sup
plies every necessity for mans body
and mind.
This is how Malta-Vita came to be
known as The Perfect Food, Tor
Malta Vita is simply the whole of the
wheat and a little salt, Thoroughly

Der of the firm of Young & Drummer, 80

Herman Has Suggestions.

George Herman has a suggestion to
make, and first would stop travelling
fakirs from visiting the city by making
the license prohibitive. Patronizing
home Industries is his second sugSes-
ton, on which subject he says:
"I have noticed that some Of our
own citizens buy most of what they
consume and wear, away from home,
help to build up Chicago, Cedar Rapids
and Des Moines I can count enough
men in our city who buy their clothing
out of town that would employ at least
twenty tailors the year round. and
those are our best citizens,
and the biggest howlers who
will tell you and me what to do to
make our city prosperous. They Will
also tell you that the tailors don't keep
up with the styles. must say that this
is untrue.
"Now, Mr.. Editor, If we would all
follow my opinion and buy everything
at home as long as we can buy 1t as
cheaply, and get just as good results
it would not be long until we had
prosperous city of our own.
GEORGE HERMAN"

Mayer Considers PROSPECTS Good.

Peter Mayer feels greatly encourage
ed over the outlook for the coming
year. and says:
"The prospects for better business in
this year look very favorable to me.
I think there will be more building done
this summer, especially in dwellings.
Money invested in Marshalltown
real estate at present prices seems to
me safe and paying investment. A
reasonable tax for interurban roads,
payable in three or four yearly pay
ments, with surety of their being in OPP
Grafton, l do believe to be a good in
vestment for this city. but 5 per cent l
do not consider reasonable.
Encouraging Marshalltown people to
start new factories, even on a small
scale, and giving them assistance with
home capital, / very much believe to
be the thing and a real benefit for ev
erybody concerned. but please quit
grating. PETER MAYER"

operative grain business at Dunbar.
That Mr.. Keen will make the strong

by all of his friends, who base their

Der of the board, received the nominal
ton for supervisor. Mr.. Keen has
large following, and has been assured

The daily morning journal and courier., 1906-08-17


 Miss Alkaline Francis is Ia come dime tres belle,' which is. being in terpreted a lallapaloosa. She is sing ing at the savin Rock theater this week. The children made the gallery re-echo with pleasure at the combina- tion which Miss Francis sings. There are three, the old-time melody London Bridge, Jenny Annie Jones and Ring Around a Rosey. The grown ups were just as much pleased, for it brought back the good old days. It is a child pot pourri, but redolent with the sweet ness of that melody of childhood which survives in the worst dry bones. The next piece is a darky dialect bit, of how Adam sinned, having no mammy to advise him. It is very clever, and Miss Francis dialect is ''as rich as Peters chocolate" A theatrical song follows, telling of a search for a job by a thespian aspirant, interviewing the managers of large and gaudy "vesklts." It introduces Fritzi scheff and other darllngs of the footlights
 Miss Francis holds large number of shares in the Beauty trust, as well as the Musical corporation, and carries her audience right with her. The whole company is very good, and well receiv- led, this week The weather is the right kind for the interior of the the- ater, and the crowds are spreading the tidings that the theater at Savin Rock is all to the good this week.
