not give pure water. Mr.. Dumble
stated that in the event OF the water
becoming impure, a sand litter would
remove absolutely all impurities and

With the announcement of the
prices which Steinhardt & Kelly

Union Tor its product this year, q
new record price for apples becomes
known and the Hood River apple leads
the world in the price which the
grower gets for his fruit. At meet.
ing OF the directors of the union Sat.
urday, 1t was decided to to give out
the prices which are record breakers
tor not only the fancy grades pur-
chased by the New York firm but Tor
the choice apples which we're pur-
chased by Page Il Son OF Portland.
The fancy Sptzen bergs which pack
u to the box and larger we're pur
chased TOR $3. 25 with the smaller fruit
propartionately high prices. Page l.
Son took the choice grade SpitZ at
Sl.75, which is a great advance over
former prices.
The fancy Newtowns went to New
York at 81, 40 for the Alter and larger

Last Thursday evening few of the
leading supporters of the report Of
the recent water commission" called
meeting at the Commercial Club
to discuss ways and means by which
the report could be put before :he
council. The Civic Improvement
League had alresdy instructed its
directors to put the report into the
hands of the city fathers in order that
they might be given the new light
gained by the commission from the
water company, but when the sub,
stance of the report became public
the leaders Immediately realized that
1t did not meet the requirements as a
solution OF the question.
Through some misunderstanding
several outsiders wandered into the
meeting aud AS result the speak.
ers who supported the proposition
OF the water company, were very
guarded in their remarks and 1t is
understood that another more exclu.
sive gathering was called together the
following morning at which they
could speak out In meeting"
At the Thursday night meeting, DIR.
II. l.. Dumble, who did most of the
talking, became very emphatic In his
denunciation of the bond issue, laid
great stress on the point tnat the
present water company should be
granted the concessions which it asks
of the people. lie assured the persons
present that he would appear hefore
the council and do his share of the
talking, Especially If there was any
opposition. "
V. g. Brock felt that the report OF
the commission should be submitted
to the council according to the origi.
nal directions OF the civic league, aud
that the men present had no author
ity to withdraw the report because
they thought 1t might not meet with
apprc val. lie was heartily in favor OF
the water cUmpany's proposition but
be SAID that 1t was really the pro
vince of the council and not the civic
league to make a contract with the
company. Other speakers who sup.
ported the so.caIled water commits
sion's report we're: Truman Butler,
j. Ii. HieIbronner, CHARLES A. Bell,
q. Ii. SGranahan, W. l.. Clark and
Frank A. Cram.
DR.. j. +. Watt and j. II. GIL, both
OF whom are directors of the civic
league, expressed themselves as dis
approving of the report of the com
mission embodying the water com.
pany's proposition, aud made it clear
that they did not want the report pre-.
sented to the council az having the
unanimous support of the organi2a.
tion. They stated that they we're
both petitioners before the council
asking ior bond election and we're
in favor of the city Eringing In the
Tucker spring
After good deal of sparring as to
who should bear the burden of pre-
senting the report to the council the
meeting voted to do as the league In
full meeting had instructed them to
do and adjourned.

A LIBERAL OFFER
Fred Snow, the Druggist, Guarantees
to Cure Dyspepsia. If He Fails
the Medicine Costs Nothing

To unquestionably prove to the peo-
pie of Topeka that indigestion and
dyspepsia is durable and that RexaH
Dyspepsia Tablets will effect the cure,
we will furnish the medicine absolute
ly free If it fails to give complete sat
isfaction to anyone giving it a trial
The remarkable success of RexaIl
Dyspepsia Tablets is largely due to the
new and successful method of manu-
facture. whereby the well known
properties of Bismuth. Subnitrate and
Pepsin have been combined with car
initiatives and their agents.
Bismuth Subnitrate and PepSin are
recognized by the entire medical pro-
fession as specifics for acute indiges-
ton and dyspepsia.
The Pepsin used in Rexal Dyspep-
STA Tablets is manufactured by a new
process which develops it's greatest
digestive apparatus one of the most
important elements of the digestive
fluid. and exerts a tonic influence
upon all the glands which supply all
the other elements necessary to proper
assimilation and digestion.
The carminatives add properties
which promptly relieve the disturb
anoes and pain caused by undigested
food.
The perfect combination of these
ingredients make a remedy absolutely
incompatible and invaluable for the
plete cure of Indigestion and dyspepsia.
We are so positively certain of this
that we sell Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets
on our own personal guarantee that
they will either cure you or cost YOU
