A WARNING
To the People of Rock Island.

A reporter happened in the store of
our well known druggist, II. o. Rolls,
the other day, and in speaking of the
sudden changes in the weather and the
sickness which seems to be so prevail
ent, Mr.. Rolls remarked, Such wealth
err cannot help but result in coughs,
colds, bronchial troubles, the grip and
other sicknesses. This weather is also
bad for old people and those who are
run down or have tendency to any
weakness or Diseases
Said Mr. Rolls: 1T seems to use
that you should warn every man. wo-
man and child in Rock Island, espe-
cially the aged and run down, through
the. columns of The Argus, to build
themselves. up and take. proper pre-
cautions to ward off sickness, and
there would be very much less suffer
ing and fewer deaths in Rock Island
this winter
When asked what they considered
the most universally successfully medi-
cine they had ever sold in their store
for that purpose, without hesitation
Mr.. Rolls answered, Our modern cod
liver oil preparation, Vinol, and if peo-
pie only knew what grand protection
to health it is we would not have clerks
enough in our store to supply the de-
mand. You know it is not a patent
medicine. as everything in it is named
on the label, and it does not contain
any oil to clog the system and upset
the stomach, but 1t does contain every
one of the medicinal, curative and
bodybuilding elements of cod liver oil
actually taken from fresh Gods livers.
Vinol cures coughs, bronchitis,
the old, builds up the
weak and run down, and makes rich,
red blood. If it fails we win return
the. money paid for it. H. o. Rolls,

special consideration of height, car
riage, grace, and even experience in
manipulating the exquisite garments
made by Worth, Phelix and other ca

HEALTH DEPARTMENT BULLE-
TIN RECEIVED IN RICH
MOND.
STARTLING ARRAY GIVEN
Nearly Everything FIT to Eat, :"
Seems to Be on the Bad List
Maple Syrup Shows Worst.

Richmond business men and all
other citizens who have sent to the
state health board for the second bull
letin concerning pure foods have re-
ceived copies and they are finding
much lin them that is of interest.
| The bulletin gives list of foods ex-
| amined and the names of the manu-
facturers and the dealers who sell
them. The tests have shown a de-
plorable condition in some lines.
Maple syrup shows worst, with a
per centage of adulteration that is
wholly syrup was labeled "maple,"
and usually bore label guarantee
ing purity. Some of the samples
really did not show traces of maple
but the most were cane sugar syrups
colored with burnt sugar. Many
samples contained less than the nor
NAL amount of sugar, and the buyer
was paying maple syrup prices for
molasses WHICH he could make at
home at much lower price.
OF the 113 samples of jellies and
jams great majority were impure,
and in some instances were unfit to
eat. The use Of apple stock is
common in the manufacture of such
goods. This is not injurious, but
goods made from it and colored and
favored and sold as ihore desirable
things are not lawful.
The larger part Of the goods exam
ined was sold without labels, show
ing adulteration, as required by law,
and some were sold under the name
Of fruit that was absolutely absent
from the article.
Of the $40 samples examined since
the last report, POI were pure and of
the standard quality, and 329 were
adulterated, or below the legal stand
and a percentage equal to $40.
Of the 146 samples Of drugs an
allied, 80 were pure and $50 were
adulterated. 1t is explained in this
connection that samples are collect
ed for analysis and where there is
suspicion that there are adultera-
tions, and that, therefore, the extent
of adulteration of all classes of food
and drug products is represented by
a much smaller percentage.

Tried to Conceal Hi. Feelings.

The late President Samuel c. Bart
lett of Dartmouth was man who
keenly appreciated repartee. whether
turned upon himself or some one else.
AT a college gathering recently this
story was told as an iliustra ton of his
temperament:
Barron Shirley. now a prominent
lawyer in Franklin, y. H., was called
before President Bartlett when a stu
dent at the college for remarks he had
passed because of ruling of the fac
ulty. The matter was regarded as
serious. and there was danger of young
Shirley's expulsion.
Sir" said President Bartlett stern
", II understand you have been ex-
pressing your contempt for the fac
ulty.''
NO, SIR replied Shirley as quick as
fash; II have always done my best
to conceal il"
President Bartlett looked into the
young students eyes, then chuckled
and said, You may go, sir"-New

TO DELAY OPENING
Cedar Springs Will Not Be Ready
for Guests Before May LIST, It Is
Said.

The announcement was made last
fall when Cedar Springs Hotel was
closed that it would be re-opepned
April list, says the New Paris Mir
ror. So far, however, there are
no signs that it will be done that
soon as nothing has yet been done to-
ward putting the place in order and
the talk now is that it will be May
LIST before the opening takes place.
It is also said that it is doubtful
if the clubhouse will be operated at
all this year on account of the bad
reputation which it gave the place
last year, and the fact that the liq-
uor business and gambling cannot
be carried on without the constant
risk of raid by the authorities.
The new "search and seizure' law
recently enacted by the legislature
would make this much easie i, now
than formerly, and as any citizen
could initiate it without having to be
in possession of positive proof, it
would be almost a certainty under
any such conditions as prevailed last
year.

been slowly killing her.
The child is a daughter Of Henry
Jeude, a farmer south of this city,
She swallowed bean which lodged
near the top of her lungs. The OBJ

at least successful one, was out of
the question, and the case was given
up as hopeless by the doctors of an
Evansville hospital. The child,
however, did not lose her simple
faith and prayed every day that she
might cough up the bean and thus
save her life
Yesterday afternoon she was seiz-

was thought to be dying During
the hardest of the coughing fit the
bean was expelled. The child stop
ped coughing and went into a restful
sleep for the first time In eight
weeks. She viii recover.

According to dispatches seed men
all over the country are endeavoring
to have Congress abolish the seed
sending custom. A Richmond seed
dealer has written Congressman
Watson protesting against this GUS
tom because the government does not
send out new and rare seeds, but
the general run of seeds that can be
purchased everywhere. The seed
men are not the only ones that have
suffered by the government compel
ing with private enterprises. The
printers have protested long and
loud against the government IS prac-
tice of furnishing printed envelopes.
If the government can furnish its
people seed and printed envelopes,
why not food stuffs and wearing APP
parel. The government being a
large purchaser, could certainly buy
cheap and sell to it's citizens at cost.
Why not turn this into a Socialistic
government and be done with it. The
printers have protested, resolved and
kicked until they are worn out.
