WheeIer--Frane

Again the Meade boys have lost.
This time to Mr. Frank B. Wheeler,
and the prize won is Miss Julia E.
Frame. They were married at the
brides home in Meade, Tuesday
December the 2Ist at P. M. The
delicate beauty of the bride, attired
in charming white dress, and the
strong, handsome manliness of the
groom formed a lovely picture as
they stood before Mr.. T. F. Hancks
the officiating minister.
The wedding was very quiet
affair only the relatives and few
close friends of the bride being pres
ent. Immediately after the cere-
mony a delicious supper was served.
Mr.. Wheeler is business man of
Dalhart Texas, and the happy couple
left for Dalhart on the 10 O'Clock
train.
May JOY and contentment go with
them and, may peeee and prosperity
be their friends.

SHAKESPEARE AND THE BIBLE.

Whatever ex-President Eliot of
Harvard may have meant when he
explained to a Times correspondent
that the Bible and Shakespeare we're
omitted from his five feet of estim-
able books because everybody has
read them, he certainly did mot
mean just that.
Obviously, neither Shakespeare
nor the Bible has been read by
everybody. What a worldful of Gull
ture we should have if everybody of
reasonable mature years had read
and inwardly digested those two
founts of uplifting thought, pro-
found wisdom and pure English.
All that DR.. Eliot means is that the
Bible and Shakespeare do not stand
ia need of recommendation. Nearly
everybody knows he ought to read
them. But the proportion of men
and women who ever read the books
they know they ought to read is
small, even in this age Of enlight-
nent.

seized the presidency in 1905.
'Reyes is an extraordinary man.
There is not a better executive or an

MUST BE PART OF COMMUNITY
No Idea of Natures Plan That Man
Should Be an Isolated and Sci
fish individuality.

1t is not an easy thing for a man
to separate himself from the thought
and activity and purpose of the COM
munity in which he lives, and to
pursue an isolated disconnected and
selfish part. He can't do it, indeed !;
and if he tries it he will only reduce
himself to cipher or stumbling
block. The community will get on
somehow, for it must; but if it
have many members Of this kind it
will be dull, heavy and unprogres-
sive.
Man in isolation is of little con-
sequence, next to nothing. His as
ISOLATION with others, the inspiration
he receives from others, draw out
his own powers. ''The state" to
this day, as Plato conceived it, re-
mains "a product of mind" Out of
the action and interaction of cur
rents of mind, affected and even di-
rected by variant views or opinions,
comes the whole progress of man, of
society, >of the human race. We
want what Burke described as "that
action and counter action, which in
the natural and political world,
from the reciprocal struggle of dis
cordant powers, draws out the har-
mony of the universe" The most
isolated man cannot separate him
self from the situation he lives in.
If such isolation were general, or
could be general, it would be the
negation of civilization.

CURES cATARRH.
The Mcbride & Will Drug Company
Will Furnish the Medicine Free in
Every Case Where They Fail to Cure

The Mcbride & Will Drug Company
Will Furnish the Medicine Free in
Every Case Where They Fail to Cure
Catarrh.
Neglect or pessimism we believe is
the greatest enemy the public have to
contend with when applied to the loss
or recovery of health. Practically every
case Of consumption might have been
cured If hope had been maintained
and proper treatment had been resorted
to at the first symptom of the disease.
Until the advanced stage is reached,
consumption is durable. Catarrh Is re-
sponsible, we believe, for every case Of
consumption. 1t ds about catarrh we
want to talk to you today, incidentally
consumption, since the two are so
closely allied.
We have a medicine made from the
prescription Of one of the most sue
cessful catarrh specialists known. This
medicine has a record of SO per cent
Of cures, and we believe it is positive
ly without an equal We are so salts
fed that we are right, that we Will
supply the medicine free in every in
stance where it is used according to
directions for a reasonable length of
time and fails to cure and give salts
faction in every particular We want
everyone in Marshalltown to try this
medicine at our risk. There are no
conditions or formality attached to our
offer We put the user under no obli-
cation to us whatever.
The medicine we want you to try is
Rexan Mucu-Tone. 1t is catarrh rem
edy that goes direct to the seat of
trouble. It is carried by the blood to
every part Of the system. 1t seeks out
and destroys the germs or parasites
which cause catarrh. 1t purifies and
enriches the blood, tones UP the muco-
cells, soothes and heals the tissues that
are ravaged by the catarrhal parasite,
and brings about a condition of health
and strength that prevents the germs
of consumption from ever getting a
start. Besides this, Rexall Mucu-Tone
is wonderful appetizer, digestive aid
and flesh builder. Its good effects are
felt from the very first dose. 1t Is one

President Of Model License
League Tells Liquor Men Re-
forms Are Necessary
WOULD BAR ALL LAW BREAKERS
T. M. Gilmore Declares Business Must
Be Elevated and That Temperance
Wave is Due to Repeated Violations
Of Law by Bad Men Engaged in tho
Business.

louisville, Jan 2d The National
Model License league met here today
for a three days session. President j.
NJ. Gilmore called the session to- order
and avowed that the purpose Of the
league is to take the saloon out OK
politics and keep 1t there, and TO ex-
clutle all lawbreakers from the retail
LIQUOR business, whatever the law Of
their communities.
Louisville. Ky, Jan. e1.--"The peopfe
do not want prohibition, but they want
a reform, and when we prove that we.
too, want reformI when we gain the
confidence of the public, the prohibi-
ton wave will recede and the anti
saloon league will find its occupation
gone" so declared President Gilmore,
of the National Modern License league,
in his address at the convention OF
that organization today. Mr.. Gilmore
prohibition wave which he declared to
be a protest against things that ought
not to be; against conditions that
ought not to continue. Mr. Gilmore said
he was satisfied that the prohibition
movement will ultimately result in
good to the liquor trade and to society,
but he insisted that It should be car
ried along in a less radical way. and
that the reforms desired should be
brought about without such tremend-
Gus losses as are being entailed thru
the passage of prohibitory laws.
Saloons Must Be Good.
".rhe people of this country do not
want prohibition" he insisted, NOR do
they want the saloon unless the saloon
is properly conducted.
1.-The saloon. IL properly conducted, is
very good convenience, but the ST.
loon that is run in connection with
gambling. and that violatesN law. and
that sells to minors and to men who
are intoxicated. is certainly out OF
touch with civilization: 1t is an offense
to modern thought, and 1t should be
that is absolutely merciless In its pro-
visions"
Mr. Gilmore said that If the saloon
should be permanently abolished 1t
will be found necessary to provide q
substitute. because the strenuous life
incident to modern civilization de-
mands place of relaxation, where
friend can meet friend, and where
worries and cares and responsibilities
of life may, for the time being, be put
aside.
The anti saloon league" he contin-
ued, SIS not advocating prohibition. and
to one who is familiar with the situa-
ton all OF this talk about dry terri
tory is nothing more than an absurd
fly. There is no dry territory in this
country, altho there are number of
states and a great many counties, ag-
gregating, in area probably one-half of
the United States in which laws have
been adopted prohibiting the sale. and
in some cases the manufacture. of all
ccholic beverages. A law merely pro-
hibiting the sale of alcoholic beverages,
however, can not affect the purchase
and use of alcoholic beverages any
more than a law that might prohibit
