among our committees, to
leave nothing undone to disseminate
the tenets of Irish nationality by in
sitting into the plastic minds of our

vicinity. A few years ago Mr.. Azinger
became interested in it and had been
the proprietor and each winter during
the ice harvest, it had been the scene
OF great activity.
There are but three causes assigned
to the fire: Tramps, sparks and light
ming. AS the house was thoroughly
soaked by the rain, the spark theory
is not accepted and it seems evident
that the fire was caused by bolt of
lightning. Neighbors reported that
shortly before they noticed the blaze.
that there was couple OF sharp re-
ports and it is their opinion that the
fire was caused from lightning.

fire through spy glass and reported
it to the bridge, which in turn notified

The Well Known Old White Ice House
on the Upper Level Of the
Canal Was Struck by
Lightning.
ENTIRELY CONSUMED
Department Went Out and Saved TWO
Railroad Bridges But Could
Not Stop the Blaze in
Buildings.

The old white ice house on the up
per level OF the canal, was destroyed
by fire Sunday afternoon, caused
probably from bolt of lightning, the
big building being almost entirely de-
stroyed and thousands OF tons of ice
ruined.
The fire department went out short
ly before o'clock and for about four
hours stayed at the scene but the
greater part of the big building was
gone when the men arrived
The fire had considerable of start
before the matter was telephoned to
town. Fire Chief Anderson reported
it to acting Mayor Off and he author
lied the department to go out and see
what could be done.
The Young America steamer, located
at the Taber Lumber yards was sent
street station where the horses were
changed, the chemical team being
hitched to the steamer. The West
Keokuk reel was brought up and extra
hose loaded on and the pieces of ap-
paratus started out to the scene of
the blaze, it taking about so minutes
to reach the ice house after the alarm
had first been turned in.
The steamer was backed down to
the canal and put into service. Two
lines of hose were laid, one being
used to fight the burning house and
the other to put out two small rail
road bridges which we're Oh IRE.
A Complete Wreck.
The big ice house was completely
destroyed, but the contents were saw
ed for the time being and the ice

The house consisted of three big
houses built in row and the entire
building was about so by 700 feet in
size, being one of the largest houses
along the river. The upper house and
lower house both contained consider
able ice and a good part of this was
unframed and can be hauled away in
cars and saved

Beware Of Deadly
Uric Acid Poison.
When There Is Uric Acid in Your System That Means
Very Dangerous Condition
Very Dangerous Condition.

A great many people do not know
what uric acid is. 1t is one of the dead
lest poisons that can existin the human
system. And it cannot exist long in the
human system, without very serious
consequences resulting. These conse-
quences often terminate in death If
neglected. The kidneys and bladder
are depended upon to expel uric acid
from the human system. That is their
business.
When the kidneys and bladder are
sound and healthy, and in good work
ing order, they with the assistance of
the livery will effectually operate to
keep the system free from this uric
acid poison. But If the kidneys, blad-
der and liver are sick, over-worked,
exhausted, anddiseased, they cannot ex-
pelthe uric acid. Then the system be-
comes charged and overloaded with
this deadly poison and the immediate
results are: foul and impure blood, ex-
IRENE nervousness, and sometimes total
mental breakdown, lame and aching
back and groins, rheumatism, govt,
lumbago, deposits of stone and gravel
in the bladder, and, later - if neglec-
ted = painful and incurable or fatal
diseases.
DeWitt's Kidney and Bladder Pills
are a genuinely good and the depend
able remedy for all weak, debilitated,
and diseased conditions of the kidney,
bladder and liver. They act directly
and at once upon these organs, and by
their especially cleansing, healing, an
tiseptic and curative action, speedily
put them into sound, active and healthy
condition again. Thousands of persons

The Doctors Question
Some Advice Against the Use of
Harsh Purgatives and


A doctors first question when
consulted by a patient, care your
bowels regular?" He knows that
98 per cent. of illness is attended
with inactive bowels and torpid
liver. This condition poisons the
system with waste matter and
causes accumulation of gases which
must be removed through the
bowels before health can be re-
stored.
Salts, ordinary pills and cathar-
tics may be truly ]ikoped to ~ na-
mi6e. Through their harsh irri-
tating action they force a passage
through the bowels, causing pain
and damage to the delicate intest-
inal structure which weakens the
whole system, and at best only
produces temporary relief. The
repeated use of such treatments
causes chronic irritation of the
stomach and bowels, dries and
hardens their tissues, deadens their
nerves, stiffens their muscles and
generally brings about an injurious
habit which sometimes has almost,
if not fatal results.
We have pleasant and safe
remedy for constipation and bowel
disorders in general. We are so
certain of it's great curative value
that we promise to return the pur-
chaser S money in e very case where
it fails to produce entire salts
faction. This remedy is called
Rexall Orderlies. We urge you to
try them at our entire risk.
Rexall Orderlies are eaten like
candy, they act quietly and have
a soothing, strengthening, healing,
regulative influence on the entire
intestinal tract. They do not
purge or grippe, cause nausea, fatu-
lence, excessive looseness, diar-
rhoea or other annoying effects,
and they may be taken at any time
without Inconvenience.
Rexall Orderlies overcome the
drugging habit and safely remedy
constipation and associate all
ments, whether acute or chronic,
expect in surgical cases. They are
especially good for children, weak
persous or old folks. Price, 36

um People.
Too many Emporium citizens are
handicapped with bad back. The un-
ceasing pain causes conatant misery,
making work burden and sleeping or
lifting an impossibiity. The back aches
at night, preventing refreshing rest and
in the morning is stiff and lame. Plas-
ters and liniments may give relief, but
cannot reach the cause. To eliminate
the pains and aches you must cure the
kidneys.
