LEARN TO EAT
Few People in Marsha,ltown Really
Know How.

IOW T0CPi0 w 'sSss'S
Know How.
Slow eating will solve one-haf the
problem of II health. Those who suffer
already with Indigestion and weak
stomach can with care and the use OF
Mi-o-na stomach tablets restore theii
digestion to healthy condition, so that
they can e,,t what they want at any
time without fear Of distress or suffer
ing.
After few days use of Mi-o-na
stomach tablets. the headache. dizzy
feeling. drowsiness. bad taste in the
mouth, conted tongue, nervousness
sleeplessness, distress after eating-all
these symptoms of a weak stomach
will disappear and perfect digestion
and a good skin will show that the
vital machinery is once more running
smoothly.
Take a little Mi-o-na tablet before
each meal so that it will stimulate the
digestive juices and give strength to
the stomach, and then it will take care
of the food that is eaten, without in
digestion and the unpleasant full feel
lng with which so many suffer after
meals.
Mcbride & Will had, so much conf
dence in the power of Mi-o-na to cure
indigestion and all stomach Ills that
they give guarantee with every
50-cent box to refund the money If the
remedy fails to give satisfaction.

Bulk of Offerings Lacked Quail
ity, and Outside Demand
Was Very Small
THE HOG MARKET CLOSED WEAK
There Was a Strong Tone and Ad-
vance in Prices, Early, But Pack
ers Refused to Pay Higher Levels
Sheep Weak, But Best Grades Of
Lambs Sold at Steady Values.

Chicago, Jan 3.--Cattle were slow
and weak. Receipts were too heavy
for the trade. Choice steers were
lacking. The bulk of offerings lacked
quality. outside demand was very
small.
Heavy cattle suitable for shipping
and export showed the most decline.
for there was a narrow outlet for
steers of that class. Eastern buyers
said that conditions on the Atlantic
coast were not favorable and that or
ders had been received to cut down
everything to low limit. Thus far
this week the supply has not been
very heavy. but the demand was so
light that no progress has been made
in the market. Most Of the beef
steers that We're light In weight sold
close to steady on basis of yester-
days close There was no urgent
demand even for that class, but all
were sold in pretty good season. Big.
heavy steers We're u drag on the mar
ket and it required some diplomacy
to get rid of the few that We're here.
1t is evident that the holiday effect
is still on and that 1t would be impo-
little to market too many cattle TIL the
general demand is better Traders do
not consider prospects good for next
week unless receipts are held down.

There was strong tone early. and
prices advanced 5m10c. but the close
was weak. Demand for heavy kinds
was especially good, but light grades
were poor sellers. Packers refused
to pay the higher levels. Spectators
and few eastern shippers did most
OF the bIying.
Sheep.
Sheep we're weak. but trading was
very light. Lambs were the most
sought after. the best grades selling

Fort Dodge, Jan. Soon the work

shape of snow and rain. Soon the

People in looking at the outside OF
the building form the impression that
II is nearing completion. AS matter
of fact but little work has been done
on the interior. The energies of The
workmen have been concentrated upon
the exterior of the building. The heat
ing plant, however. has been put In
working order and has been found to
be unchanged upon trial. Heaps of
rubbish are scattered over the floor
and on the second floor, boards are
laid across to form the footing for the

Bureau Formed BY Salvation
Arm, Saves Hundreds From
Destruction
SAVED BY WORDS OF CHEER
Brgadier McWilIams' Report Tells of
Good Effects of Work-Many Causes
Lead to Suicidal Despair Turn
Thoughts From Trouble is the Sal
walton Army's Aim.

Chicago Jan 3-The value of the
Salvation army is demonstrated be-
You'd a doubt, in the opinion of Brig.
work. by the report issued yesterday
of the cases handled and suicides pre-
vented since the establishment of the
bureau six months ago.
In that time 335 persons have sought
the assistance offered by the bureau
and of this number Brig. Mcmillan
estimates that so per cent have been
saved from self destruction. A signifi-
cant fact brought out by the figures
compiled by the brigadier is that the
overwhelming number Of those who
applied to the bureau were men.
Only sixty five women availed them
selves of the help and cheering words
of advice which Mrs. kilby, in charge
of the women's department, stood
ready to give. In every case, how
ever. these Respondent and unhappy
women were cheered and turned away
from their intended purpose of COM
hitting suicide.
From the experience of the bureau
it has been found that the most pro-
life causes of desiring to commit sui
eide are domestic unhappiness, lack
OF employment, drunkenness. and
gambling The reasons given most
frequently by the women were deser-
ton, sickness and lack Of work
Brigadier Mcmillan soon discovered
that the causes of suicide may be
classified into ten different heads. On
this basis report blanks were prepared
and the cases handled set down under
their specific heads. The following
lists shows the number of eases han
died and the reasons given by the
applicants for their suicidal intent:
