WINTER ON THE RIVER
Mississippi Gradually Filling With
Ice at Rock Is
land.
8UTFERRY AUGUSTA Is NOT AFRAID
Bobs UP Again After Brief Lay
Off.-Pleasant Outlook for
Coal and Ice Men.

1t will not be long now until the
old Mississippi at Rock Island will be
blanketed with a jun blei mass cf ice
cakes frozen solid. The river is still
open, but it is filed with floating ice,
which makes it impossible for any
boat to navigate on the stream with
out danger to her hull. some of the
ice cakes being as large as a dinin Q
room table.
Along the shore the ice is frozen in
a smooth plane distance of several
feet out into the stream. In the mid
die of the stream where the current l.
stronges,, the ice is moving rapidly.
On acco ant of this current, it will re-
quire some pretty cold weather to
cause a congestion of the ice cakes
and thereafter the least indication Of
a thaw will cause the mass to loosen
and send the cakes floating down
again.
The appearance of the river filled
with floating ice is beautiful in the
rays of the sun. and down stream the
ice glitters from several places in
brilliant points of light as if mirrors
had been stuck in the cakes.
Coal and Ice Dealers Happy.
The coal men are sitting in
their sanctums and laughing in fiend-
ish glee over the severe straits to
which they will soon have reduced
the public. 1t usually takes several
days of this kind of weather to bring
the man of the house right about to
realization of the exigencies of the
season, but before long the telephones
at the coal offices will be keeping up
perpetual CHATTER and the coal men
will begin to get in their work. Or
course, the ice men are not feeling
bad, either, for they are gathering
their forces to be prepared for a united

THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.

What suffering frequently results
from a mothers ignorance or more
frequently from a mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughter
Tradition says woman must suf-
fer" and young women are SO taught.
There is little truth and a great deal
of exaggeratiOn in this. If a young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment, and her mother should see
that she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to a physician for examine
ton but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself To Mrs. Pinkham and secure
the most efficient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address is
Lynn, Mass.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1900-12-13

Mrs. August Pfalzgraf, of South
Byron. Wis. mother of the young lady
whose portrait we here publish, wrote
Mrs Pinlxham in January. 1899. saying
her daughter had suffered for two
years with irregular menstruation-
had headache all the time, and pain in
her side, feet swell. and was generally
miserable. Mrs. Pinkham promptly
replied with advice. and under date OF
March. 1899, the mother writes again
that Lydia f. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound cured her daughter of all
pains and irregularity.
Nothing in the world equals Mrs.
Pinkham's great medicine for regu-
iating woman's peculiar monthly
troubles.

Lives Lost, Property Destroyed.

Pittsburg, Pa, Nov. 27.-After
three days of incessant, rain a
flood, unprecedented for this sea-
son of the year, swept down the
Monongahela and Allegheny riv-
ers last night, running hundreds of
thousands of dollars worth of pro-
perry, drowning at least three per-
sons, temporarily throwing out of
employment thousands of work
men by the forced suspension of
many industrial establishments,
lining the banks of both streams,
and rendering hundreds of fami-
lies homeless. Everywhere the
Ohio is on a boom and great dam
age is being done all along its
course.
