gagged in the ice manufacturing business

contracted fever and returned to the
United States in very weakened con-
dition, and settled in Asbury Park, New
Jersey. where against all advices Of the
business community he erected an ice
manufacturing plant and engaged in bus
mess. Everybody prophesied his early
retirement from the field, as three other
natural ice companies were doing busi-

The movement centeriug in the club Is

reason Of having hygjenic ice, made from
distilled water, taken from the famous
artesian wells, known for its purity,
thereby causing a great demand.
As the ice season in this summer re
sort IS very short, Mr.. McGaw looking
for a larger field, about twelve years
ago came to Washington, where he
located a small ice making plant at 5th
and l. streets, n. w, known as Con
vention Hall, and engaged in the manu-
faCture Of ice, and has ever since con-
Quoted the business on an increasing
scale
The customers of his company have
at various times expressed their willing
ness to patronize it no matter at what
price the competing ice companies sold
their product
Mr.. McGaw has met with phenomenal
success, breaking all records as to the
amount of business transacted for the
time he has been engaged in the trade
This is mainly due to the purity and
wholesomeness of the article put on the
market by his company and the fair,
honest treatment which Mr.. McGaw has
accorded his numerous patrons.
His company is favorably known to
almost every inhabitant of the District
of Columbia and is indorsed for its
purity, being free from microbes and
bacteria.
Mr.. McGaw is an active and energetic
young man who come in daily contact
with his numerous patrons and thereby
has an opportunity to personally study
their desires and wishes, which enables
him to give eminent satisfaction all
around.
The Columbia Ice Company has added
to the plant a wholesale and retail coal
business and is prepared to deliver coal
of all sizes and grades at the shortest
notice and lowest prices.
This is the same company that fur
nishad free ice water to the Christian
| Congress that met at Convention Hall

Cooperation.

As an independent illustrated
weekly magazine Of the highest
artistic and literary merit, sold
by subscription and upon the
news stands, The Associated Sun
day Magazines would command
as high a price and as many read
ers as any publication Of such
character issued today. But meas
ured by even the most popular
independent weekly, it's circula-
tion would then not exceed seven
hundred and odd thousand copies.
It is only by the cooperation of
nine big daily papers, each de-
fraying part Of the expense, that
a magnificent enterprise like The
Associated Sunday Magazines is
made possible. No single paper
could afford to purchase the arti-
cles, stories and pictures that
make up its contents. and issue
them in such perfect typograph-
ical form and upon such fine
paper as part of its Sunday
edition. The nine papers CO.
operating in publishing the Sun
