| treasurer. A large percentage of the
stockholders was in attendance at the

Lynch showed most promising condi-
| ton Of the business In the ten months
of organization, and big volume oil
business in that short time. The COM
pany has handled in the ten months
1871 cars of corn, or 1882 bushels;
113 cars of oats, or $4,000 bushels; one
car Of barley, 1850 bushels; two cars

tai of $4,000 bushels of oats was han
died; 10000 bushels of corn, 2,400 tons
Of coal, besides large quantities Of food

integrity received the general COM
mendation of the patrons.
The stock in the company has in
creased in value from $40 to almost s25
and there is no stock on the market

COFFEE COMPLEXION
Easily Cleared Up BY Simple Mean.

The coffee habit often causes sallow-
ness long before the cause is suspect
ed. Then the coffee user may be Will

The experience of Penn. lady shows
how easily this may be done. She

II have suffered from constipation
and stomach trouble since a child,

was prevented from studying at school.
until recently, frequently in great pain
from liberation of the stomach and had
grown wretchedly thin.
my complexion had become very
sallow and my stomach was an unal-

we have always had some kind of a

routine, using one kind until it began
to lose it's effect and then another
about six weeks ago my husband
brought home a package of Postum
Food Coffee, insisting that I give up
the old kind and try the new. 1t
seemed to be impossible to quit drink
ing coffee, altho knew it was injuring
my health.
However, after reading the little
book. The Road to Wellville.' which /
found in the package, concluded to
give Postum fair trial.
For the past six weeks have used it

PERFECT TINE
Famous Lonsines Watches Keep Time
So Accurately That Variation Is AL
most Too Small for Computation.

A variation of only three seconds in
seven weeks time is the remarkable
record made by one of the famous
Swiss Longines watches sold by VIM
Hellberg. the jeweler, to party in
Marshalltown. Another one varied
only 20 seconds in 70 days. Hellbers
today received a portion of a large con-
signment recently ordered. The adj
justment Of these famous watches is SO
perfect that they will run for months
and even years with scarcely any vari-
alton, so small as to be almost imper-
ceptible. They are tested and tried by
experts before they are allowed to leave
the factory. If you expect to get new
watch see them.

A TINE QUESTION
Being Some Observations Addressed
to Well Known Parties in This
City, and Which People Generally
Could Read With Profit.

McCombs Bros:
When a man breaks his leg and
wants to go to the hospital, he phones
you for a hack-quick. He doesn't
want to wait until you send for a
Concord tally-ho from Connecticut and
team Of mules from Missouri. In
order to get his fare, you must have the
rig ready when wanted.
When man has the foundation for
an apartment house completed, a house
which will bring rental returns as
soon as finished, he doesn't want to
wait the best part of year for the
material to build with. He wants to
proceed with the work and get that
rent coming to him.
The foregoing facts have been Our
observation and consequently we have
supplied ourselves with a large and
complete stock of lumber. Enough to
fill several ordinary bills and then
enough for an apartment house.
We don't mean that we have the
stock bought and expect to get it when
the railroads get around to carry 1t.
We mean we HAVE it in our yards
NOW.

LECTURES on TRUSTS

Congressman c. e. LittlsfieId Of Maine,
Speaks Before Y. M. C. A. Entertain
msnt Course Audience on Subject Of
National Importance.
Congressman Charles e. Littlefeld,
OF Rockland, Me, lectured before the
Railroad Y. M. G. A. entertainment
course audience at the Methodist
church Tuesday night on the trusts.
His audience was not as large as has
attended other course numbers. In
many ways his lecture was disap-
pointment. and was not what might
have been expected from one who is
reputed to hayegSuch a fund OF knowl-
edge Of his subject to draw from. Con-
gresham Littlefield, is however, a most
pleasing and forceful speaker, but his
subject was not one that was easy to-
turn into so-called popular lecture.
Mr.. Littlefield spent much of the time
on the platform reading extracts from
history to show that combination OF
capital for both legitimate and illegi-
innate purposes was no new thing, but
dated back to even long before the time
OF Christ. His purpose was to show
that trusts were not new, but that in
their activity during recent years his
tory was only repeating itself. He de-
MED emphatically that the tariff was
responsible for the trusts, and he
branded such a claim as an absurdity.
His remedy is the enforcement Of pres
ent laws rather than the enactment of
more laws to correct the evil He cited
some OF the ANTITRUST laws such as the
Sherman and F,lkins laws, which, i'll
enforced, would accomplish much OF
the result desired.
Publicity is another of Congressman
Littlefield's renedies-publicity to show
the real value behind the bonds and
stocks which are sold to the people.
He shoulders the lack of this publicity
on both the state and the federal gov
ernments. The states that allow trusts
to come into existence should regulate
and control them, and the same, he
said, applied to the United Sta!as.
When this regulation and control ISL
accom- lished and when a reasonable
amount of legislative enforcement Is
brought about, there will be results.
Congressman Littlefeld was intro
duced by G.. H. H. Boardman.
