WOMAN AT REST

quent terms to the noble Christian
character of the deceased and her ef-
forts during life to provide for the
comfort, joy and happiness of others.
The funeral cortege was followed to
the grave by the grief-stricken hus-
band and relatives of the deceased
and sorrowful friends. Teas were in
the eyes of many as the earth was
placed over the casket which incased
the remains of one who was loved
and admired by all who knew her in

The floral offerings were numerous
and the grave was hidden from view
by the flowers which covered it.
The sympathy Of the community
goes out to Captain Ballard in his loss,
as it does to the father and relatives
Of the deceased and the six-day-old
little daughter, who will be without
a mothers care or love.
The following gentlemen acted as
pail bearers: Capt. Aiken, Capt. Bry-
an Dunwody, Capt. Bennie de Roche

If the issue is made and carried it is
stated that an effort will be made to

amended as to replace the university

a HOME PROPHET
Is SOMETHING LIKE A HOME PRO
DUCT, NOT WITHOUT ITS
PROPER HONOR SAVE w
ITS OWN COUNTRY

This is especially true of beer. II
is a peculiar fact that a southern ar
ticle in the south has a severe, uphill
fight for just recognition. There
seems to be an established prejudice
In favor OF a northern or western beer,
based upon no other reason than that
e. Is made somewhere else and must
be better. But our good and loyal
southern people should remember that
up TO the time Of the war nearly all
the revOlutiOnizing innovations in
commerce and business originated in
the south. And now there has been
another innovation. A few years ago
the Acme Brewing Co, located in Ma.
con. Ga, made bold. daring and bril-
liant stroke. They have installed a
brewing plant which is absolutely un.
excelled on this entire hemisphere in
point OF modern. up-to-date. scientific
equipment, and, just as the coat makes
the man, the brewery makes the beer
Their product, American Queen
beer, has been declared by the Wal
heinus Institute, Of Chicago, TO be su.
periOr to the best OF American beers
This is an unprejudiced unbiased
unbought opinion. Proofs Of the fact
are on exhibition in their once, and Il
is truly a poser" for southern people
with northern prejudice.

A REPUTATION
HOW IT WAS MADE AND RETAIN
ED IN PENSACOLA.

A good reputation is not easily earn
ed, and it was only by hard, consis-
tent work among our citizens that
Doan's Kidney Pills won their way TO
the proud distinction attained in this
locality. The public endorsement of
scores of Pensacola residents has rem
dered invaluable service to. the com
munity. Read what this citizen says
Charles Wilson, living on West Ro-
mana St., brick mason by trade, says:
Il procured Doan's Kidney Pills at
Sidney Kahn's drug store, corner of
Palafox and Romano streets, and used
them for a lame back and sharp
twinges Of pain which passed through
me when / stopped or made any sud-
den movement l was surprised at
the quickness with which / was reliev-
ed. Mrs. Wilson also suffered from
her back and kidneys. She could
hardly turn in bed and suffered from
a dull aching in her loins. Just be.
fore taking Doan's Kidney Pills she
was completely laid up. After taking
them all symptoms of kidney throubls
left her and up TO date there has been
no recurrence. / strongly urge Pen.
sacola people to use Doan's kidney
Pills if they suffer from their back
or kidneys"

Hon. P. K. Yonge has returned from
Lake CITY and Tallahassee, where he
had gone on educational matters. At
Lake City he attended a meeting Of
the state board Of control Of which he
is a member, and with the other men,
bers journeyed TO Tallahassee where
a joint meeting of the board of con-
troll and board Of education was held.
Under the terms OF The Buckman bill
the board Of control and board of edu-
cation were clothed with authority 70
select the locations for the state uni
versity, female college, coiored normal
and the deaf. dumb and blind institute
and other powers were conferred. As
is well known Gainesville, after a hot
fight with Lake City captured the uni
versity, Tallahassee was an easy win
ned in the contest for the female col
lege, the capital city also captured the
colored normal school and st. Angus
tine the deaf, dumb and blind insti-
tute.
The Lake City citizens do not relish
the idea Of the university being NOV
ed from that point. The fight to test
the cOnstitutiOnality OF the Buckman
bill is well known, as is the decision
Of the supreme court declaring il con-
stitutiOnal This drawback. to all in
tents and purposes, does not seem to
dsmpen the spirit Of the Lake City
citizens. RumOrs are out that an ef-
fort will be made to make the Buck
man bill an issue in the state cam
paign for the senate and legislature.

Ahouf Rheumatlsm.

There are few diseases that infiict
more torture than rheumatism and
there is probably no disease for which
such a varied and useless lot of rem
edies have been suggested. To say
that il can be cured is, therefore, a
bold statement to make, but Chamber
lain's Pain Palm, which enjoys an ex-
tensive sale, has met with great sue
cess in the treatment Of this disease.
One application of Pain Balm will re.
lieve the pain, and hundreds of suffer
ers have testified to permanent cures
by its use. Why suffer when Pain
Balm affords such quick relief and
costs but a trihe? For sale by all

Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1906-08-30
MAYOR M'CASKRlN
NEEDS SPANKING
Prescription of Peoria Star for Rock
Island Executive Who Is Accused
of Failing to Pay Debts.

The Peoria Star of yesterday com
ments upon the telegram sent by G.. w.
McCaskrin mayor of Rock Island"
and all, to the circuit clerk at that CITY,
denying that he had received bill for
small debt in connection with the
filing of divorce papers and saying
he had yesterday sent the money. In
the telegram the mayor takes occasion
to denOunce Al Kellogg, who is CON
nected with the circuit courts office
as sewer rat" and to declare the
Peoria Journal which published the
item regarding the alleged debt recent
ly quoted by The Argus guilty of all
the crimes and villainous deeds which
it is possible for a newspaper to COM
mit-and then some. The Star does
not take exception to what is said of
its rival, the Journal, but refers to
other features in the following lang
uage:
But Harry is not the only victim
of McCaskrin's wrath. He actually
denounces Al Kellogg, the best look
ing official in Peoria. and calls him
a sewer rat For this. too, Mayor
McCaskrin should be spanked. AL. is
no sewer rat. On the contrary, we in
tend to- make him the next circuit
clerk of Peoria county.
The cause of all this display of
spleen on the part of the Rock Island
official is his own failure to pay his
honest debts. a year ago the circuit
clerks office sent him a certified copy
of a decree of divorce The bill was
dollar and half, and it was never
paid
