mean just exactly what I say
The. roast was taken quietly by the
saloon men, one of whom, however,
attempted to explain that he was
simply scrubbing out his saloon in the
forenoon, but Mr.. Bryson cut him
short, informing him that he had all
the evidence necessary and that he
didn't care to discuss the matter or
listen to any explanations.
The council adjourned Immediately
after the ''heart-to-heart" talk.
President Bryson says that he does
not propose to be fooled and will en-
force the law, which is being fagrantly
violated.

CALLED ON THE CARPET,

President Bryson Issues His Ultimatum to
Saloon Keepers-A Hot Roast and Due
Warning.
The special council meeting last
Monday night proved to be a very
warm number for the saloon keepers
who had been called on the carpet by
President Bryson, and Mr.. Bryson was
unquestionably ''loaded for bear'' the
way he went after the saloon men pres
ent. The special meeting had been
called to act on the application of
Frank Morneau for a liquor license
The only members of the council pres
ent were President Bryson, Recorder
Goulding and Trustee Galley. The
bond of Mr.. Morneau for $4,000 was
taken up and approved.
President Bryson remarked that the
saloon keepers were to be present at
$50, and he began to get trife i'm
patient, just as Magnus Sjoblom and
Paul Janikula walked in. Mr.. Nelson
arrived early and got in on the ground
floor. AS soon as Messrs. Sjoblom and
Janikula arrived Mr.. Bryson gave the
saloon keepers most vigorous carpet
talk and roast and one that will be long
remembered by all who heard it. He
charged Janikula and Nelson with hav-
ing sold liquor over their saloons on
Sunday, and went after them without
gloves. During his talk Lessard and
Holm came in and he proceeded to ad-
dress his remarks to them, and i'm
pressed all with the fact that he had
ample evidence of gross violations of
the law on Sunday.
"Now I wish to give you all fair
warning. [ know what I am talking
about. I have been giving you rope
enough. propose to have you live up
to the State law which is higher law
than any village law, and if I catch
any of you selling any more liquor on
Sundays, and unless you keep all screens
and curtains pulled aside so as to give
a clear view of the saloons from IL
o'clock Saturday night to 5 a. m. Mon
day morning shall cancel your licenses.

SALE RAPIDLY INCREASING
MI-o-na. the Flesh Forming Food, Incrsas-
ing the Weight of Hundreds of L. H.
Thomas Customers.

One of the greatest successes of
late years, has been achieved by Mi-o-
ma, the remarkable flesh-forming
food. Its sale here in Rock Island, is
increasing so rapidly that L. II. Thorn
as, the enterprising druggist, who in
troduced it, is having hard work to
keep it on hand.
1t has become very popular with
we'll known bankers, ministers, law
yers and others whose business or
profession prevents their taking much
exercise, while those who have been
troubled with Indigestion, mal-assimi-
lation of food and loss of flesh,
brought on by irregular eating, wOr-
rying or other causes, have found
health and strength in this reliable
remedy
Mi-O-na is in the form OF small tab
lets, and is sold in metal boxes, es-
pecially designed for convenience of
carrying in the pocket or purse. 1t
is pleasant to take and a few days
treatment shows considerable gain in
health, while an increase in weight
will be noticed after the first weeks
use.
cessful in building up good, solid,
healthy flesh, and in curing all stom-
ach troubles, that T. II. Thomas sells
it under his personal guarantee to re-
fund the money if it does not give
satisfaction. y guarantee like this
speaks volumes for the merit of Mi
o-na.
Lack of flesh does not usually come
from lack of food, but because the
food is not properly assimilateG by
the tissues. If you are losing weight
or if your weight is not what it should
be, you should begin the use of Mi-o-
ma at once.
r. Fl. Thomas has so much faith in
the preparation that he will sell it
under his agreement to pay for it
himself in case it does not give salts
faction. You can surely afford to
begin its use today on these terms.

There was brought in to Davenport
from Eldridge Monday n man who
was violently insane. He had been in
that section of the county for the
past two weeks, and on him was
found sufficient evidence to show that
he had once been incarcerated in Il
Wisconsin asylum. He became vio-
lent Sunday and therefore the good
folk of Eldridge decided that the Jail
at Davenport was the best place for
him. The man gave his name as
Crosby. He is about 60 years of age
and an Odd Fellow. He is being held
in jail in the padded cell to await
word from his Wisconsin relatives,
who have been communicated with.
