A Handsome Woman

Every woman may not be hand
some, but every woman should
keep with care the good points
nature has given her. No woman
need have sallow skin, dull eye,
blotchy complexion, who pays
proper attention to her health.
Where constipation, liverderange-
ments, blood impurities and other
irregularities exist, good complex
ion, bright eyes and sprightly
movements cannot exist. Internal
arrangements reveal themselves sooner
or later on the surface. Headache, dark
rings around the eyes, sallow skin, a con-
slant tired feeling---mean that the liver
and digestive organs are needing help and
correction. Chamberlain's Stomach and
Liver Tablets give this necessary help.
They work in natures own way. They do NOT
merely flush the bowels but tone UP the liver and
stomach to fulfill their proper functions. So mild
and gentle do they act that ono hardly realizes
Tablets can be relied upon to relieve biliousness,
Indigestion, constipation and dizziness. Sold ev.

FREIGHT CONGESTION
rs NOW OPENING
Local Railroad Men Say Although
Business is Heavy, Condition of
First Month is Being Relieved.

Freight is moving with much less
delay now than during the blizzard
period of ;.f ew weeks ago, and there
is less congestion at the most import
ant business centers but the volume
of business is such that the trouble
has not been entirely eliminated. Keo-
kuk railroad men, with the others OF
this middle western section of the
country, are having their usual task
of keeping things moving and keeping
the tangles eliminated which always
occur at this season of the yea
A few weeks ago. cars loaded with
dead or non-perishable freight, were
often shunted on side tracks and per-
mitted to lie there for weeks, just be-
cause the companies ha all they could
do to move perishable freight, live
stock and coal
For few days the movement of
coal engaged the afternoon Of the
roads almost exclusively and every
car started from the mines was traced
to it's destination. Now the coal move.
ment is freer and there is less urgent
demand for it owing to better sup.
ply being obtained and lighter con-
sumption. The easier situation in the
fuel line has made it possible for the
roads to devote more attention of the
movement of other lines of business
and to clearing away congestion in
the terminals and moving cars that
have stood on way station sidings for
a long period.

If Moline and Bisgsville Who Tied for
First Come Here This Year,
One Getting Most Points,
Wins Cup.
WYLAND MANY COME
Tri-city Athlete, Graduates in June,
SO he May be Able to Repre-
sent His Team Here in
May.

Moline athletes are afraid that they
will not stand much of a chance of
winning the tri-state meet cup this
spring. In last evenings Davenport
Times, the Moline News has to say of
the coming meet and what her
chances look like for carrying off any
honors in the events:
1t looks as though Moline won't get
the Tri-State cup which Guido Wyland
tied for first place in the meet at Keo-
kuk last spring. 1t will be remembered
by those who followed the Noings of
Wyland at the meet, when, single
handed he managed to get enough
points for Moline to win, but Blggs-
vile had team and they tied him
for points. What to do the officials
in charge of the meet did not know,
and it was finally decided to rest the
matter in the hands of Alonzo Stage,
to see who should nave the cup. He,
however, did not want to become
mixed up in the controversy and re-
fused to have anything to do with
the matter. Letter after letter Mr..
Nutting has written to the authorities
in charge of the meet and to different
men well posted on athletics, but has
had no definite answer until recently,
when he received the following:
Dear Sir: The cup that Moline and
Biggsville tied for in the second an
nual tri-state meet, will be given un-
der the following conditions:
IF Moline and Biggsvllle are both
represented in the third annual tri-
state meet, the one making the high
est number of points will receive this
cup. If that number of points is also
the highest made, the team making
them will received the cup offered this
year also. If either Moline or Biggs
vile fail to send team, the cup will
be given to the, highest individual
| point winner.
1--WE are sorry that this natter has
become so complicated and think thai
| this is the fairest way Of settling it.
Please let me hear at your earliest
convenience whether team repre-
senting your school will be entered, sc
that we may settle the matter as soon
as possible.
GLENN r. PARSONS
From present indications Moline
will not have very extraordinary
track team this spring, and may not
send one to the meet. Wyland. in the
eyes of the illinois High School asso
citation, is not eligible to enter. but he
may be allowed, according to the rule
of other states. If he is allowed to en-
ter, there is chance of Moline Sc
curing the cup, but slim one, as it i,
doubtful whether one man can enter 9
meet as he did last spring and carrs
off all the honors again. The matter
is hanging fire at present and will be
settled soon.

CITY SHOULD
FURNISH BOOKS.
That Was the Resolve Made by the
Affirmative Side and Won by
Them at High School
This Morning.
WINNERS ARE ELATED
A Debating Club May Have its Start
From the Efforts Of the Both
Sides Of Debaters
Today.
WINNERS ARE ELATED

Resolved, That the city should
furnish free text books to all pupils"
There is joy in the ranks of those
five high school students, who COM
posed the affirmative side of most
interesting debate, held at 10 o'clock
this morning in the senior English
class of Miss Pittman.
The affirmative side of debaters, the
winning side of the interesting ques.
ton, which was discussed at length,
was composed of Lawrence Cruze,
Louise School, Anna Hartrick, Leila
Mattern and Madeline Marley The
debaters on the negative side were:
Will Haggott, Roscoe Nichols, Leila
McGaw, Frank Wahlgren, Alberta
Jester and Van Hayden.
The negative debaters were six
strong, to five on the winning side
Four young men and two ladies being
on the losing side and one young man
as leader and four young ladie stu.
dents, taking the affirmative side OF
the question.
In their supreme efforts, the debat-
ers on each side waxed eloquent and
it was hard task for the critics and
judges, composed of three young men
members of the junior class, Norman
Ringstrum, Guy Fulton and Barker
Davis to decide.
1t has been suggested that debat-
ing club, similar to those conducted in
Burlington, Davenport, Des Moines
and other high schools throughout the
state, be formed, and such an organi-
cation may have it's start from the
interesting debate which was held this
morning.

Double Track System?

What will the c., B. & @. do with
the old tracks when the new road bed
is made and is ready for the reception
of passenger and freight trains?
There has been some discussion and
much rumor regarding this. 1t would
be possible then to raise the old
tracks on level with the new road
bed by means of an elevated structure
and thus have a double track sys-
tenn probably between this city and
Burlington. Such move will proba-
bly, become necessary with the in
crease in both freight and passenger
traffic, after the completion of the
dam, and it may be that the officials
of the @ have foreseen this and their
plans may be along that line.

track location will commence is not

state this morning but it will be a
