PATE DE FOIE GRAS SWINDLE.

A Partisan swindle which is intensely
amusing to all but the sickened and dis
gusted victims consists in the manufacture
of an especially fine quality of the pate de
foie gras so dear to the stomach and the
pocket of the gourmand. Put up in ele-
CANT pots or jars, this supposed delicious
preparation OF the liver OF the fatted goose
sold at high prices, and was highly esteem
ed by epicures, until they learned that the
exquisite delicacy over which they smacked
their lips with so much gusto was simply a
preparation of horseflesh, and ancient horse
flesh at that, bought from the knockers,
boiled, mixed with fat pork, spicked with
nutmeg, ginger and cayenne pepper, a
little rum kirsch or eau de vie being poured
over the delectable compund to give it a
flavor. Pates OF quail, lark, duck, hare
and pheasant were also prepared from the
same foundation and found ready sale
among the gourmands whose ire is by no
means assuaged by the fact that the manu-
facturer has been sent to prison for eight
months.

The Opinions of Scores of Our Fellow
Citizens.
Residents of Rock Island, like other
American citizens, if making an in
vestment, want TO be sure of getting
the worth of their money. They
want to know all the why's and
wherefores, and in a direct ratio to
the value of the investment they bur-
row and ferret until satisfied with the
collateral. Take an instance in the
realm of proprietary articles. If we
know of friend who has been cured
we have some faith in the prepara-
ton; if we know of two or three our
faith increases. If the cures reach
scores, all we'll known citizens, and
anyone who still maintains that there
is nothing beyond ordinary merit in
the said preparation can safely be left
to the care of his fellow taxpayers.
If he wishes to pick quarrel with
them on the question of their
judgment and veracity. he has
ample opportunity in Rock Island
to do SO. Begin with this case:
Patrick Rooney, of 1909 Fifth
avenue, bricklayer, says: Taken
with a soreness across my loins and
other symptoms of kidney complaint,
l went to a physician, who treated
me at intervals for three years. Re-
ceiving little if any benefit, L resorted
to advertised sure-cures, but the
trouble resisted all my efforts, the in
tense pain in the small of my back
and limited control over the kidney
secretions being always in evidence.

SOME idea of the immense proper

from the statement that 90 car loads
of Missouri eggs have been sold to 90
to Cuba and are now in storage await
ing shipment. A company is also
filing an order for 40 car loads of
chickens in one lot, from Missouri and
Illinois, for shipment to Manchester.
