EVANGELIST HAS
CONVERTED 2,O58
CEDAR RAPIDS SWEPT BY POW
ERFUL PERSONALITY OF
REV. "BiLLY" SUNDAY.

Cedar Rapids, Nov. 16.-With scenes
that give promise of speedy answer
to the prayers that Cedar Rapids
might be swept by tidal wave of
Christianity, the last week of the re.
vival campaign has opened.
When eighty-one responded to the
invitation last night it brought the
number of converts up to 2,058, and
there is every reason to believe that
another thousand will be added to
those figures before Mr.. Sunday leaves
Cedar Rapids.
The evangelist will preach for the
last time in the present series on next
Sunday evening, and expects to open
on the following Wednesday in Joplin,
Mo.
Ends in Week.
Next Sunday night there will be
given at the tabernacle a sacred con-
cert, In which several out of town
singers will be secured to assist local
talent and the choir.
Harry Monroe's prayer and prophecy
at the meetings on Saturday afternoon
that the mems meeting Of Sunday
would be the beginning of greater
awakening was literally fulfilled, for in
the ten minutes that interviewed from
the moment Sunday asked the men to
give their hearts to Christ until he dis
missed the meeting, 103 came to the
front crowding the aisles until they
were almost impossible In their effort
to make public stand. The list of
converts included several we'll known
| business men.
The audience at the tabernacle Sun
day morning was large; that of the aft
ernoon was larger; and the audience
at night overfowed the building SO
that an overflow meeting at the Males
tic theater was necessary. Harry Mon
roe preached to the several hundred
who attended this, and twenty-five ac-
cepted Christ when an opportunity was
| given.
Expenses Met.
Because of the heavy expenses of
the revival, 5000 was still needed to
/ meet the bill of the Evangelistic as
ISOLATION when the services began yes

The Significance OF
a Poor Appetite
Good Digestion Usually Produces
Good, Healthy Appetite for Sub
stantiaI. Nutritious Foods.

In nearly all cases of good, keen
appetite, and healthy relish for food
are significant of good health and in
dicative of a strong digestion-one
which is capable of handling properly
ali of the food eaten SO that the per-
son will not be annayed for hours aft
err each meal with bloating sensations,
a feeling of weight in the epigastric
region, sour eructations, heartburn
and waterbrash.
Practically everyone is aware of the
fact that if the appetite fails for any
length of time, the strength and ener-
gy wane considerably, and the blood
and nerves are appreciably affected,
the condition of the blood indicating
anaemia, or thin blood, and of the 9th
er, neurasthenia or nervous eXhaus-
ton. Then follow such symptoms as
want of energy, that tried feeling" a
state of languor lassitude and weari-
ness, together with melancholia and
dependency.
A good hearty appetite usually indi-
Gates a good healthy digestion, though
Of course, there are exceptions to this
rule, for example, as in diabetes or in
bulimia, conditions in which the appe-
lite is tremendous, in fact, downright
ravenous, and cannot be satisfied, no
matter how much food may be eaten.
The exaggerated appeties" of these
diseases are just as unnatural, and
lust as sure indications of stomach dis
order, either directly or indirectly, as
Is anorexia, or loss of appetite.
In SO cases out of hundred, how
ever, a large, hearty, capacious appe-
lite means good active condition of
the stomach, a healthy, powerful diges-
ton, an excellent absorption and as.
Sanitation, SO that when the appetite
Is lost it may be correctly assumes
that the stomach is at fault and needs
attention.
STUART'S DYSPEPSIA TABLETS
are wonderfully powerful tonic-stimu
lants to the hunger nerves. of the
stomach, and secretory glands of the
greatly increase the appetite, and pro
mote the flow of the natural digestive
juices, so that in brief time the
stomach is restored to natural and
physiological condition which Their
enables it to perform it's functions
without outside assistance, and the
Immensely improved appetite remains
permanently good.
These tablets act first as digestive
Becernent, which means that they
stimulate the secretion of the gastric
pancreatic and other digestive fluids
while In the second place they arc
also powerful digestives of all kinds o.
food themselves, and this rare ant
happy combination, acting in unison
restores the stomach to its natura
condition. supplies the blood with well
digested food for the reconstruction o
the general system and also whets {
'keen edge" on the appetite.
If your appetite is poor and diges
ton weak, purchase a box of Stuart'
Dyspepsia Tablets from your drug
gist for soc. and both conditions will
be speedily cured. They furnish tn
pply sure way of acquiring good ap
petite and to thoroughly digest after
ward all that is eaten. A free sampl'

The Meredith cocoanut

George Meredith may not have been
an altogether familiar author to the
ordinary reader who Graves for quick
sensation. He never came down to
the simplicity Of Sherlock Holmes or
Captain Kettle. Meredith required an
acute and trained intellect before he
could be appreciated.
1t was once mentioned. in referring
to the difficulty which some people ex-
perience in reading Meredith's novels.
that the Meredith "cocoanut" was
very hard. but that the milk when
reached proved to be very sweet
This joke got into the papers.
Two days afterward well known
firm of fruiterers had an inquiry after
these cocoanuts from a country Gus
toner. The letter was to the effect
that. having read some where that
Meredith's cocoanuts have had large
sale lately and that the milk was
fashionable. the writer would like to
have a few to try.-London Tatler.

The average wheat yield for
this State was not very heavy.

The quality is good and the aver

WALKING.

The ordinary man who is employed
indoors throughout the day does not
walk enough. he needs the fresh air
and sunshine of the outdoors, and, no
matter how tired be may be, a short
time in the open air will rest him. If
he has no opportunity to walk during
the evening. be ought to do it in the
morning. There is no better tonic
than two mile walk before going to
work. Some business men who live
some distance from their Offices or
stores walk down regularly every
morning and are greatly benefited
thereby. No matter how sluggish
they may feel on arising. the morning
walk puts them in good trim for the
days work. Exercise in the open air
starts the blood to circulating in every
artery and vein in the entire system,
opens up the pores of the skin, so that
the waste matter in the body may be
set free, iimbers up the joints and
muscles and puts one in shape for the
duties Of the day.-St Joseph Gazette
