MCGEE ON NERO.
Pastor of First Baptist Church Gives
Scholarly Character Study.


Scholarly Character Study.
The first of the present seasons SER
les of physical and intellectual feas.s,
which proved popular last year in the
First Baptist church, was given Tues
day evening. when the ladies of The
church served one Of their fine dinners
in the church parlors, and Rev. James
MCGEE, pastor of the church, delivered
one of his scholarly lectures following
the dinner hour.
Mr.. McGee's lecture was in the ma
ture of a character study, stylde "The
Wicked Fiddler of Century One" The
speaker took up the conditions and So
cial life of the First century in begin
ming his talk, and then introduced his
title role, the Roman emperor Nero's
ancestry. and his surroundings and
environments. He discussed the man
under four heads-his ambition, to DE
an actor: his cruelty, his vanity, and
his cowardice.
From the study Of the mans life and
deeds the speaker drew mis- conclusion,
showing that a man in official life
amounts to nothing unless he. himself,
is man: that the scepter of power
avails nothing unless the principles of
true manhood are contained in the one
who YIELDS the scepter.

by Breathing Hyomei.


1t isn't pleasure to saturate your
stomach with vile nostrums or to shock
the tender membrane of the nose and
throat with disagreeable sprays and
douches.
But strange to say there are . few
thousand people, who do not keep
abreast Of the times who are hoping
against hope that these ancient methI
DDS will rid them of tatarrh.
If the readers of Marshalltown who
suffer from catarrh want to Danish this
vile and disgusting disease forever go
to Mcbride Il Will Drug Company to-
day and get complete Hyomei (pro-
nounced High-o-me) outfit for $100.
If it doesn't cure it wont cost YOU a
cent because Mcbride & Will Drug
Company will give you your money
back.
Hyomei is so simple and pleasant to-
use; pour a. few drops from the battle
into the inhaler and breathe It In. AS
it passes over the membrane and into
the lungs with the air you breathe it
soothes the raw membrane and kills
the catarrh germs. Don't experiment.

About e5 cents-LittIe Truth in
Talk of Price Over 81.

From the best Information obtainable
potatoes are not going to be abnormal
ly high, unless comparison is made
with years when the householder was
able to fill his bin with spuds at the
price of 20 or 80 cents. There is little
justification for the belief that the price
will reach over dollar. or even near
has been led to believe by some who
have been selling their crop at retail
about the city.
There is every likelihood that all will
be able to put in their winter supply
of late potatoes at prices ranging FROM
so to rs cents. 1t is thought the aver
age will be about half way between
these figures.
Prices Not Established Yet
AS the crop of late potatoes has not
begun to come into the market prices
can scarcely said to be esta blished vet.
Even commission houses, altho they
are investigating the crop in various
states and localities. are not Offering 10

what the conditions of the market are

The prediction of potatoes from SIS to

that growers and commission houses

crop, are offering to lay No. l spuds

Early Potatoes High.
A large part Of the early potato crop
has been marketed, at least locally. The
price has been high. and depended
much upon quality Some have brought
as high as 81 bushel altho the pre-
vailing price has been about a quarter
or so less.
Potatoes that were planted early and
secured the benefit Of the abundance
of the moisture of the early summer.
have yielded much better than was ex-
pec,ed in spite of the long dry season
later in the summer.
In Grundy county, where the potato
is one of the leading crops, reports in
dictate that the price will range around
so cents. which is about the same fig
ure the crop brought last season.

Holy DAYS,

Dr.. Hale and the late Bishop Hun
tington Of New York were fast friends.
The latter had been Unitarian and
his shift caused sensation. The
Episcopalians have saints assigned to
the various days in the year. When
an Episcopalian minister writes q let.
ter on any day for which there is q
saint, he always writes the name Of
the saint at the close Of the letter in.
stead Of the date. Bishop Huntington
learned all these things quickly. and
began to practise them at once. The
first time he had occasion to write to
his old friend, DR.. Hale, after Joining
the church, he placed "St. Michael's
Day" after his signature. A reply
from the doctor came, and after his
name he had written in full. round
hand, Wash day."-Christian Regis.
