OBITUARY.
NELSON


Samuel l.. Nelson was born The 18th
day Of October, ls4l, and died at noon,
Monday March 4th, 1912. He was
born in kenosha, Racine Co., Wis. He
moved to Iowa in the year 1852. He
lived on farm near Granger, until II
years ago when he came to this city to
live. He was married in 1868 to Miss
Pfremmer. Six children we're born to
them. Three are living today as fol-
lows; William. Walter and Hattie
Henry. Mr.. Nelson was soldier in
the civil war. lie was "A member of
Co. A. 18th Iowa. He served during
the last year of the war, being muster
ed out at its close. He was also SOL
der of the Cross Of Jesus Christ, a
member of the Methodist Episcopal
church, and attended its services as
long as his health enabled him. One
year ago on the Sth of last November
he was stricken with paralytic stroke.
He never fully recovered, and while At
times he seemed to be somewhat
stronger, he failed rapidly towards the
last.
One by one the old comrades are
answering the final roll call. One by
one they are mustered out. Taps are
sounded for Bro. Nelson, lights are out
He has fought the good fight of faith,
and he will doubtless claim the prize.
The sympathy of his friends and
comrades is with the widow and child

CAUSE FOR ALARM.
Loss Of Appetite or Distress After
Eating Symptom That Should
not Be Disreearded.

Appetite is just natural desire for
food. Loss of appetite or stomach dis
tress after eating indicate indigestion
or dyspepsia. Over-eating is habit
very dangerous to persons good gen.
eral health. !
It is not what you eat but what you
digest and assimilate that does you
good. Some of the strongest, heaviest,
and healthiest persons are moderate
eaters.
There is nothing that will cause more
trouble than disordered stomach, and
many people daily contract serious
maladies simply through disregard or
abuse of the stomach.
We urge all in Cresco who suffer
from any stomach arrangement. indi-
gestlon. or dyspepsia. whether acute or
chronic, to try Rexall Dyspepsia Tab
lets, with the distinct understanding
that we will refund their money with
out question or formality. if after
reasonable use of this medicine, they
are not perfectly satisfied with the re-
suits. We recommend them TO our
customers every day, and yet have to
hear of any one who has not been bene-
fitted by them. We honestly believe
them to be without equal. They give
prompt relief, aiding to neutralize the
gastric juices, strengthen the digestive
organs. or regulate the bowels. and
thus to promote perfect nutrltration.
and eradicate all unhealthy symptoms.
We urge you to try 25c. box of
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets, which gives
Is days treatment. AT the end of that
time, your money will be returned to
you if you are not satisfied. Of course
in chronic cases length of treatment
varies. For such cases, we have two
larger sizes, which sell for SOC. and
Sl.OO. Remember. you can obtain Rex
all Remedies in this community only
