Saws No One Need
Remain Thin Now
Physicians Advice For Thin, Undevel-
oped men and Woman


opsd men and Woman
Thousands of people suffer from ex-
cessive thinness. weak nerves and
feeble stomachs who. having tried adj
vertised flesh makers. food -fads. physi-
cal culture stunts and rub-on creams,
resign themselves to lifelong skinni
ness and think nothing will make them
fat. Yet their case is not hopeless.
A recently discovered regenerative
force makes fat grow after years of
thinness, and is also unequalled for re-
pairing the waste of sickness of faulty
digestion and for Strengthening the
nerves. This remarkable discovery is
called Sargol. Six strength giving. fat
producing elements OF acknowledged
merit have been combined in this peer
less preparation. which is endorsed by
eminent physicians and Gsea BY prom!
nent people everywhere. 1t is absolute
" harmless, inexpensive and efficient.
A months systematic use OF Sargol
should produce flesh and strength by
correcting faults of digestion and by
supplying highly concentrated fats to
the blood. Increased nourishment is
obtained from the food eaten. and the
additional fats than thin people need
are provided. Mcbride & Will Drug
Company and other leading druggists
supply Sargol and say there Is q large
demand for it.
z While this new preparation has given
splendid results as a nerve tonic and
yitalizer. 1t should not be used by
nervous people unless they wish to gain
at least ten pounds of flesh.

FEAR LOCAL SCHOOL FIVE.
N arsha''town High School Picked a.
One of likalY Contandars in Meet


According to the basketball dope
sters of the state. the Marshalltown
high school basketball team has an ex-
cellent chance to win the state schol-
astic title at the tournament, to be held
at Iowa City Friday and Saturday. Ac-
cording to the Iowa City sports writer's
the final Issue should be between OF
tumwa, Davenport and Marshalltown,
but the fact that Marshalltown is to
meet Davenport in the preliminary
round, precludes such termination of
the tournament.
Clinton, reported to have three Grip
pies on the list. is looking for strong
competition from Marshalltown and
Ottumwa. Davenport, however, is con-
fident that it can defeat the local five
in the opening game, and the newspa-
pers of that city have very incorrectly
sized up the MarshalltoWn quintet as
a "one-man aggregation"
It is felt here that if the MARSHALL
town boys can get thru the first game
with success the team win have an ex-
cellent chance to carry away first
honors. Here, as in other cities little

Standard Remedy
For Many Homes

Indigestion and constipation
are two conditions closely related
and the cause of much physical
suffering.
The tendency to indulge ones
appetite is general, so that most
people suffer at some time or
another from rebellion of the
overtaxed organs of digestion and
elimination. A simple, pleasant
ly effective remedy that will
quickly relieve the congestion Of
poisonous waste and restore
regularity, is the combination Of
simple laxative herbs with pep
sin. sold in drug stores under the
name Of DIR. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin. This is a mild. pleasant
laxative-tonic and digestant, alb
soiuteiy free from opiates Or mar
cotic drugs and has been the
standard household remedy in
countless homes for many years.

DUMMIES BUY sLnPNIckA.
Former Marshalltown Hurier Is Pur
chased From Milwaukee.

c. c. Slapnicka, a Cedar Rapids boy.
once member Of the .Marshalltown
baseball club. and of late years star
member of the pitching staff of the
Milwaukee American Association team,
has been purchased by the Cedar Rap
ids club, and has signed contract to
play with the Bunny outfit this season.
Cedar Rapids apparently is strength
ening it's team by purchasing players
of known ability. From present line
ups issued in the cities of the circuit,
it is a safe prediction that the teams
will all be stronger this year than they
were in 1914, and that much higher
class of ball will be provided the fans.

huRTo IMPROVING PROPERTY.
Improving One Dwelling and Will
Build Another on Main Street.


Extensive building improvements on
what was formerly the Darling resi-
dence property, corner OF Fourth and
Main streets, has been begun by John
N. Hurto, 800 West Main street, who
purchased the large tract last summer.
The property has already three houses
on it.
Mr.. Hurto has begun excavation for
a basement at 3 North Fourth street,
on which he will move the house at S1l
West Main street. The dwelling will
be remodeled, improved and made en-
tirely modern at cost of $4,000 or
more.
On the corner site, vacated by NOV
ing the house, Mr.. Hurto will build a
modern house which he will rent. The
plans for this building have not yet
been made, but the owner is planning
to make very substantial improve
ment to the property.
