FOR CHEAPER GAS.
rRurlinptnp Hawkeya

Killian Seibel, former Burlingtonian.
Is representing a syndicate known as
the Iowa Fuel Co., which has offered
to furnish Davenport with fuel gas at
thirty cents per thousand. The Daven-
port Democrat says the company has
a capital stock of s.. 100000 and William
Daggett. president of the Ottumwa
Iowa National bank. is secretary. Con-
corning Mr.. Seibel the Democrat says:
Mr.. Seibel is an Iowa man. His home
for years was in Burlington, this state.
He was in the hotel business there for
years. but he is too enterprising a char
acter to long stay SO quiet as a man
must remain in order to be a good hotel
man, and he launched into business ten
years ago. He takes up the Iowa end
of the Universal Fuel company because
he is satisfied that there is good thing
in it; good thing for the customer,
who has been paying more than dollar
for gas. and good thing for the man
connected with the company. He will
be here again in few days, and it is
likely that more will be heard of his
proposition in short time"

she looked around the tiny library,

James Reed Injured.

Mr.. James Reed struck his leg
against cake of ice in such manner
as to bruisa it severely. 1t became
very much swollen and panied him so
badly that he could not walk without
the aid of crutches. He was treated by
physicians, also used several kinds of
liniments and two and half gallons of
whisky in bathing it, but nothing gave
any relief until he began using Cham
berlain's Pain Balm. This effected all
most a complete cure in a weeks time
and he believes that had he not used
this remedy his leg would have had to
be amputated. Mr.. Reed is one of the
leading merchants of Clay Court
House, w. Va. Pain Balm is unequaled
for sprains, bruises and rheumatism.

never laughed. When you stop to
think about it, wasn't he right? What
life would be without a little humor
here and there 1T is not pleasant to-

moment of rest, may relax weary
muscles and quiet overwrought nerves.

occasional applause of laughter.

1T is no mere figure of speech to say
that the brooks and the rivers laugh.
Nature is moody, but she is more often
gay than sad and we as the children

he could be distinguished beyond a

himself not alone the master of pencil
