There will be general regret at the destruction
of the we'll known Washington's Rock on the
crest Of the Watching Mountains, north OF
Plainfeld. n. J. It's use by Washington as a
Il OJkout during of the crucial parts OF his
military career is perfectly well authenticated,
and its historic and patriotic interest is there
fore great Moreover it is a singularly pctu-
rescue and attractive place of resort That II
should be deliberately destroyed for the manu-
facture of road material seems an unspeakable
pity, almost calculated to make men regret that
the good roads movement started.
And seeing that there practically mex
haustlble quantities of trap and other road
making rock within easy reach in that very
vicinity, 1t really appears like wanton vandalism
to blast away that noble cliff.

Nothing having been heard for more than a

North Pole in 1907. 1t is natural to fear that
some untoward fate has overtaken him. The
efforts which Dillon Wallace proposes to make
to find and relieve the explorer are prompted by
a commendable spirit. though DR.. Cooks made
quate preparation, which is in strong contrast
with Commander Pearys prudence and thor

the neglect with which it has been treated.

new oyeralls and work at the build
ing of the tabernacle.
Excursion trains on all the railroads
leading into Marshalltown will be run

Such were the definite arrangements
as the result of the evangelistie COM
mittee's banquet at the Presbyterian
church Monday evening. The church
parlors were beautifully decorated by
the ladies, who served full course din
ner, after which business sessions were
held and addresses enjoyed by an au-
dience of $50 guests many Of whom
were pastors from the towns OF the
counties contiguous to Marshall
Rev. M. N. Smith, of the NJ. ~.
church, delivered the address of well
come. A meeting was held with tho
outside pastors, at which an organiza-
ton was perfected to extend the infiu-
ence of the Sunday meetings outside
the city and arrangements were made
to get excursion trains.
Following Mr.. Smith Rev. w. III.
HORNED gave an address, in which he
commended the work Of Mr.. Sunday as
witnessed in Ottumwa, in the highest
terms that the speaker could use. He
i asserted that six weeks of Billy Sun

as preacher than three years at Nc
Cormick Institute.
Cards were circulated containing a
pledge of personal services in the
building of the tabernacle and were SO
generally signed that with others al
ready secured Marshalltown is now as
sured of the unusual sight of $50 of
her professional and business men,
clerks, preachers and artisans all work

tabernacle. The old court house scene
when NLarshalltown citizens turned out
enmasse to lay bricks for a court house
is to be enacted over again. This work
will begin late IN February
In letter to the chairman of the
,evangelistic committee Billy Sunday
says that his coming will be delayed
one week owing to the necessity of CIV
ing Spokane more time and this will
throw his opening date over to March

spring city election and will lift q

Country Club, who was recently re-
elected to that office, today gave out
the list Of six directors, whom he has
appointed for the year. At the annual
meeting of the club the board Of dt-
rectors was increased from five to sew
on members. The following are the
board members selected:
R. w. McCreery, Graham w. Law
renee, e. g. Wallace, John P. Wood
bury, Jr., C. II. E. Boardman and Har-
nv J. Rodgers. Mr.. Maxwell, by reason
of being president, is a member of the

Harry j. Rodgers.
The first meeting of the new board is

A number Of important things are
being contemplated for the coming

adaptable to the service rife Of the
various nations, and is propelled with
ordinary cartridges.
1t may be fired from the shoulder or

does not in any way injure nor does

nor in the use of the bayonet. 1t Is
capable Of scattering twenty-four rec

edges in all direction with great ve-

EARLY Fall Date Is Chosen by
Executive Committee of
the Association
CONSIDERED
DATES
GOOD
Next Seasons County Fair Will Be
Hold Earlier Than Any of Previous
Years-LocaI Fair Follows immed-
ateIy After tho State Fair-Hardin
County Follows Marshall.

The fourth annual exhibit. of the
Marshall County Fair association will
be held from Monday to Friday, Sept.
6 to 10, inclusive. These dates were
selected by the executive board OF the
association, subject to change II the
dates of the fairs of surrounding colin-
ties confiicted. Monday the dates chos-
en- were made positive. after 1t was
learned that there was likely to be no
serious conflict.
The selection OF Sept. 6 to 10 will
bring the fair earlier this year than
any previous year. In some ways this
is considered an advantage. and es-
pecially so because the state fair will
be held immediately preceding the To-
cad exhibit.
The Hardin county fair is to be held
the week following the Marshall coun-
ty fair, and it is likely that the Cerro
Gordo county fair will be held at Ma
son city the week following the Har-
din county fair.
1t is expected that this sequence of
dates will be advantageous to the ID
cal association in securing entries, es-
pecially race horses.
Hereafter the executive committee
of the association is to have a regular
meeting day The Wednesday after ths
first Monday of each month has been
selected Heretofore all meetings have
been held on the call of the president.

Ho,D to Overcome I,cip-
lent Lung Troubles

Open-air life in the great pine
forests has proven one of the most
successful ways of curing con-
sumption. The very air of these
forests is charged with the chem
ical elements of the pine, which
have a wonderful healing effect on
the membranes.
Remarkable results, however,
have been obtained in inclplent
stages Of lung trouble by open-air
living at home and the use of the
simple homemade remedy de-
scribed below. This remedy is a
good thing to keep in the home
ready fer use, for 1t is, of course,
much simpler to treat cough or
cold when 1t first appears than TO
let 1t develop into serious lung or
throat trouble. Here is the recipe:
Granulated Sugar Syrup. ...13h or
Pinex ........ ............. "a or.
Put the 21s OF. Of Pinex (f1fty
cents WORTH in a pint bottle and
fill up with the Syrup. made as fol-
lows: Take a pint Of Granulated
Sugar, add u cup Of water, stir
and let boil just a moment. Keep
the mixture we'll corked and it Will
never spoil. Take a teaspoonful
every one, two or three hours as
required
Obstinate, deep seated coughs
yield quickly to this simple rem
edy, usually in "a hours. 1T is also
splendid for whooping cough,
lfoarseness and bronchial troubles
and similar ailments. The taste
is very pleasant.
In making this remedy do not
expect tho best results by using
any of the weaker pine Oil or pine
tar preparations. Use the real
Pinex, full strength, as it is the
most valuable concentrated com
pound of Norway White Pine ok
tract, ard is rich in all the natural
elements OF the pine. If your drug
gist does not have 1t in stock he
can easily order some for you, II
you ask him.
The full pint OF this unequaled
remedy costs only about 81 cents,
and will last whole family long
time.

ago Monday. the association yesterday

ton recommending the establishment

active organization of this kind, backed
by the churches, and in compliance
with the suggestion a committee COM
posed of the Rev. Messrs. 1ix and
Auracher. was appointed to investi-
gate. The committees report was
made before the pastors association in
the shape of the following resolution:

be formed in our city, to be known as
the Marshalltown INSTRUMENTATION
Charity society, and that this organiza-
ton shall be under the management
of a board of directors consisting OF
one member from each organized
church in the city"

association to report their committee
men at once, and get the committee In
shape for work Immediately.
The forming Of charity organiza-
ton that will be active and take an
interest in work among the worthy
poor Of the. city ds believed to be a
step in the right direction, and some
thing that has been needed in Mar
shalltown for long time.
