Local Comment

Everybody is waiting for the city's

| injunction. There is going to be some
good reading In the newspaper when
| this fight gets started.
IL
Mr. Sheldon hit the bulrs-eye when
he gave the travelling men credit for
q great deal Of the favorable advertis-
ing which Marshalltown is receiving.
The automobile factory proposition
and the skirt manufacturer who Wis
tied the city were both attracted by
the Travelling Mems Commercial Club
and by them turned over to the Re-
tall Merchants Association. 1t is a
shame that Messrs. Jarrett and Greg
DRY did not succeed in organizing a
business mems club with club house,
cafe, etc, which would draw the trav-
cling men and merchants together So
ciallN Think what Godsend a
modern cafe would be to the husbands
of those women who play bridge.
The purchase of four business blocks
by as many citizens of the town dur
ing the past ten days speaks louder
than boosting for the town. All we
need now is for some real estate man
or syndicate to start to building forty
or fifty new houses all at once. They
are all needed.
Again it appears that Marshalltown
can't have real big fire even when
one gets started
If the double store movements that
are now brewing on Main street ma
terialize, several Marshalltown bust
ness houses will take another jump
citywards this spring.
The initial shipment OF $4,000 worth
Of new machinery for the Iowa Central
shops should be as prophetic as the
first blue bird in the spring There is
coming complete rebuilding of the
entire plant if the present efficient
is permitted to continue
long.
If you would know the procrastina-
tors by sight just read the names Of
those who have written booster letters
TO the T-R. and substract them from
The total population of the town.
e
A retired farmer having located in

OF four houses and lots and
lie will make a profit on every one of

1t is to be hoped that the church
;ociafias will hack I'm their nrea cheers
n organizing permanent board of
charities to systematic and co-ordin-
tie all the church and voluntary chart
y of the city. This work will thereby
,e made easier for every one and ef-
ective when done.
Wonder if the Retail Merchants As

10 purchases to the Billy Sunday
rowds which will visit the city?

DO NOT STOP EATING
IF YOU ARE DYSPEPTIC

",The trouble with most sufferers
from Indigestion" says well known
authority, lis that they go to work to
starve themselves. They cut one item
after another off their list until they
get down to mush. They don't re-
fleet that the stomach still secretes
gastric juices, and that these juices
must work on something. Nor can
they seem to realize how difficult it
is to stimulate these juices to flow
again, when, after their strength has
left them, it is necessary for them
to eat to live. The stomach that is
unused to food will reject it."
The stomach needs food for the
sake of it's own habitual functions
as much as the blood and tissue de-
mand it. Gastric juices themselves
with nothing normal to work on, set
up fermentation and acidity. Where

food cannot be taken without dis
tress, however, 1t is necessary to adj
minister a neutralizing mixture, and
antacid. Such a mixture can be made
up at home as follows: Half ounce
sodium phosphate, 1 ounce essence of
sealmint, half teaspoonful baking So
da, with enough pure water to make
eight ounces. The dose is two tea
spoonsful before each meal. 1t is
said that this simple, inexpensive
mixture will neutralize the severest
cases of intestinal acidity, SO that a
dyspeptic who takes it can eat with
out distress. And, after ALL eating,
accustoming the stomach to food, Is
the best cure for Indigestion.
Against the need of it,, this simple
formula should be cut out and saved.
Any druggist should make it up or
furnish the ingredients at cost of
about 60 or SIS cents.
