NEW PETITION OF CONSENT
CONTAINS SLIGHT MAJORITY
Recount Shows Ninety Six Les. Names

One Above Legal Requirements and
Some Of These Will be Attacked.

Muscatine, Oct. 13.-There are just
1903 names on the saloon petition that
was filed Saturday afternoon instead
OF 1889. according to the count COM
pleted yesterday afternoon by mem
bers of the Law Enforcement League.
Every name on the 2o7 sheets was
counted and the total obtained by TAX
ing the figures on the adding ma
chimes. The count was twice verified.
so it is not believed a mistake has been
made. The members of the league state
the figures place the petition in a rath-
er hazardous position. as, according to
the count made at the court house, it
leaves surplus of but fifty-one above
the number required, which is 1852.
AT the time the petition was filed
1t was claimed that it bore the sig
natures of 1883 voters of Muscatine,
and the members Of the league sHg-
gest that possibly in their haste the
managers Of the petition made a mis-
count. At all events there is a dis
crepancy OF ninety-six names in the
two counts. but after all it's up to the
board of supervisors to determine the
accurate count, as none are yet official.

Nervous Dyspepsia

Weakness of the Nervous System Often

Neurasthenia. also known as "nerv-

is becoming more and more prevalent.

Persons who suffer from this trouble
are easily excited and irritated; cannot
do as much work as formerly. and in
attempting any mental effort quickly

concentrate the attention. They also
complain of insomnia, nervous indiges-

Sleep is not refreshing. and the person
feels much more tired in the morning
than at night. Horrible dreams and
nightmare are usually complained Of.
But by far the most prominent mani
festation of Neurasthenia is nervous
Dyspepsia. In nearly every case this
disturbance of the stomach dominates
the complaint. Cause and effect may
be transposed and dyspepsia may be
the result of Neurasthenia. but oftened,
indigestion is the original cause of the
nervous condition. The nerves are
simply starved because the stomach
does not digest the food properly, and
as the nerves are dependent upon the
food which the blood absorbs from the
stomach for their sustenance, any de-
privation thereof is sure to cause nerve
weakness.

NATIONAL MEETING OF
PRESBYTERIAN BROTHERHOOD
[speciaI to The sentinel.

o
Pittsburg, Pa. Feb. 23.-It is es-
timated that 5000 delegates are in
Pittsburg today to take part in the

ian church will be the principal

main value of the convention will be
the presentation and discussion of
methods of work for mems organiza-
lions In local churches. The scope
of the Presbyterian brotherhood is
sufficiently broad to cover all forms
of Christian effort by men, and
among the local organizations feder-
ated i'm the National brotherhood are
represented many different forms of

the common purpose of interesting
men in the churches and holding
their allegiance to them.
Mems clubs that have no more
definite object than the promotion of
sociability among the men of given
church are eligible for representa-
tion in the Brotherhood, as well as
those which undertake some definite
form of missionary service.
The convention theme, The Broth
hood and the Church. and the fol-
lowing topics will be discussed:
The Man for the Hour in the
State "The Brotherhood and the
Evangelistic Opportunity of the
Church. 1.-The brotherhood and the
Social Message and the Ministry of
the Church" "The Brotherhood and
ehe Home Missionary Enterprise"
THE brotherhood and the Foreign
Missionary Program THE Brother
hood and the Supply of Ministerial
Leadership" "The Brotherhood and
the Denominational Agencies" "The
Challenge of the Church to the Broth
erhood," i" 1.-THE Brotherhood and the
Bread winner The Presbyterian
Brotherhood of America THE
brotherhood and the Boy" "Prepar-
alton for Service" Partnership in
Service" and Power for Service"
An open parliament on Brother
hood Methods will be conducted
each day under experienced leader
ship. A choir of 500 voices Will lead
the singing. Day sessions will be
held in the Pittsburg First Presby-
terian church and night sessions in
Exposition Music Hall.
