ONE MILLION DOLLARS
FOR A GOOD STOMACH
The Offer Should Be asWarning To Every
Man and Woman.

The newspapers and medical journals
recently have had much to say relative
TO famous millionaires' offer of mill
ion dollars for new stomach.
This great multi millionaire was too
busy TO worry about the condition of
his stomach. He allowed his dyspepsia
to run from bad TO worse until in the
end il became incurable.
His misfortune serves as warning
to others.
Everyone who suffers with dyspepsia
for few years will give everything he
owns for a new stomach.
Dyspepsia is caused by an abnormal
state of the gastric juices. There is one
element missing. The absence of this
destroys the function OF the gastric fluids.
They lose their power to digest food.
We are now able to supply the miss
ing element-to restore TO the gastric
juices their digestive power, and to
make the stomach strong and we'll.
We know that Rexall Dyspepsia Tab
lets will positively and permanently cure
disordered stomachs, indigestion and
dyspepsia.
We want you to try them and will
return your money il you are not more
than satisfied with the result.
Price, rs cents, Only at our store, or
by mail. Brunt & Parman Druggists,

HOME COMING COMMITTEE.
Letter Received This Morning From
Ben Bear Announces EXecu-
tive Committee.
New York, Feb %, 1909.

New YORK, FeD y, 1909.
C. n. Houck, Secy.:
Yours of the 18th inst. just reach
ed me, in which you inform me that
have been elected to the Office of
President of the Winneshiek County
Home Coming Week. for which
wish to thank the people of DEBORAH
and more especially the Commercial
Club. 1t is an honor which | fully
appreciate, in view of the fact that
there are many others who are more
capable than |, and | should have
much preferred if some one else had
been chosen.
realize that to make this Home
Coming Week real enthusiastic
success, it not only necessitates the
efforts of the officers and commit
| tees, but the earnest and hearty sup
port of every citizen of DEBORAH and
Winneshiek county, and if this is
carried out, the Home Coming will
be an assured success. | believe
the dates seIected are as good as
any, as it is the time of the year
when most of the people are relieved
of their summer work, and can af-
, ford to devote little time to the
meeting of their friends and renew
their old-time acquaintance, and
q tho TING
amusements we intend to give them.
In the past quarter of a century
there have been many people who
have strayed away from Winneshiek
county and located elsewhere, but
who still have a warm feeling and
pleasant reCollections of the happy
days spent in DEBORAH and vicinity,
and who are quite anxious to again
visit the old stamping ground, espe-
cially on an occasion of this kind.
You can travel all over this country,
east or west, north or south, and
you will come across many who have
spent some time in DEBORAH, and
who are always ready when an op-
portunity occurs, to come back to
their former home and mingle with
old-time acquaintance.
| heartily endorse the decision of
DEBORAH in this matter, and while
| am willing to do what little | can
do towards it's success. | want to
impress upon all, that this is not a
Home Coming" due to the efforts
of the several committees, but
rather the hearty cooperation of
every publication in the county, as
we'll as all the people of the county.
Let's put our shoulders to the wheel
at the very outset, and in doing so
success is surely to follow.
AS suggested at the meeting of the
Commercial Club. l hereby appoint
ten members to assist in the execu-
tive work, which l hope will meet
with your approval. They are as
follows: Fl. A. Warner, l. w. Brunt,
X. l. Haugen, John C. Hexom, N r.
Croft, Prof. c. X. Preus, n. L. Bail
ey, H. ]. Hutchinson, Fred j. Rosen-
thai and L. S. Dale.
Again, hoping that all will take an
interest in this enterprise, and trust
ing that it will be a rousing success
believe me.
Sincerely yours.
BEN BEAR
