Supervisors Received Twenty Per Cent
on Money Loaned to Citizens.

Muscatine, Oct. eS.-If the same con-
ditions regarding the interest charged
on a loan prevailed in Muscatine today
as did in 1898. the entire board of SUI
pervisors would be "pinched" for usury.
They used to charge some interest on
the loans in those early days as Is
shown by the early records of the
board of supervisors.
In the early part of the year 1888
the county having funds on hand
from the sale of town lots loaned sew
eral thousand dollars on approved Sc
curity. The records show that Charles
warfield and Joseph Williams gave
their joint note and put up collatera!
amounting to about three times the
value OF the loan and were given the
use Of se3e Of the countyis money at
the modest rate of 20 per cent year
Later Stephen Whicher was loaned
the sum of 800 for the period OF one
year. paying $50 interest for the use
OF that amount for the period OF one
year.
Scattered thru the records one will
find a score OF loans made by the coua-
ty at the fiat rate OF 20 per cent. The
original loan shark came to Iowa
early, one is led to believe from the
records. Taking into consideration.

Eats Freely But
Has No Dyspepsia
A Little Pepsin in a Mild
Laxative Promptly Cor
rected a Bad Indi-
gestion.

Fortunate is tie on who can eat
anything" without suffering the
tortures of dyspepsia, but as few are
so fortunate, care should be taken IN
the matter of diet. Eating slowly,
masticating the food thoroughly and
taking a short walk after the heavy
work OF the day will do much to-
ward resisting digestion. Any
grown-up person ought to know the
peculiar foods that do not agree, and
these should be avoided
When these common sense aids
fail, the next thing to do is to take a
mild digestive tonic, with laxa tive
properties, and there is none better
than DR.. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin. 1t
contains the greatest Of all aids 20
digestion, good pepsin. 1t has otncr
ingredients that act mildly on the
bowels, which together form a COM
bination for the relief of dyspepsia
or indigestion that is unsurpassed.
It's action is to tone and strength
en- the stomach and bowel muscles
80 that they can again do their work
naturally without outside aid, and
when that happy moment comes AL
medicine can be dispensed with. Il
Is the best remedy obtainable for
any disorder of the stomach, liver
and bowels, for dyspepsia, constipa-
ton, biliousness, headaches. drow9i-
