A Startling Surprise.

Very few could believe in looking at
\. T. Hoadley, a healthy, robust black
smith, of Tilden, Ind, that for 10
years he suffered such fortunes from
rheumatism as few could endure and
live. But a wonderful change follow
ed his taking Electric Bitters. 1.-Two
bottles wholly cured me- he writes,

a year" They regulate the kidneys,
purify the blood and cure rheuma-
tism, neuralgia, nervousness, improve

DAY TO GIVE THANKS
How Tomorrow is to Be OBJ.
served by People. in
Rock Island.
UNION SERVICE AT M. E. CHURCH
Two Football Contests Are Sched-
uled for the After
noon.

Tomorrow the nation will unite in
celebrating the completion of harvest
of the season of 1902, that good old
custom established by our wise and
pious forefathers in the long ago.
when it's import was brought directly
home to practically every citizen by
his participation in the labor that
produced the harvest. Thanksgiving
has a wider application now than
| then, and therefore Rock Island citi-
zens will observe it in many ways
| than the Pilgrim fathers did not even
remotely dream of.
IA4Ghanges, however, have not affected
the status of the turkey nor the
mince and pumpkin pies. Though
the fat gobbler is not so large as usu-
al and he is found roosting proper
tionately higher he will not be forgot
ten, even by those who are compelled
through circumstances to substitute
chicken in his place. But this is
merely local. The crop of pumpkins
and mincemeat is pronounced up to
the usual high standard, both here
and elsewhere.
In Rock Island the observance of
the day promises to be general.
Business houses will be closed and the
factories will in most instances sus-
| pend operations. The Argus will keep
the holiday and there will be no is
sue tomorrow afternoon.
County and city offices will close
for the day, while the postoffice will
remain open till 10 o'clock, having one
delivery of mail, leaving the Office at o
| a IN.

things for tomorrow's dinner, and
the gruccrs and butchers were glad.

avoid cold, and. possibly. a long
sickness. The precaution is worth
while. There is but one painkiller,
