THAT the Business Of keokuk is Ever
on the Increase is Evidenced
by Post Office
Statement.
LARGEST IN HISTORY
Gain in June This Year over Same
Month Of Last, is Biggest
in Annals Of keokuk
Postoffice.

Keokuk's business, the actual COM
mercial life of the city as 1t is seen
from every point of view and vantage,
is more than holding its own, more
over, showing that is splendid and
speaks in no uncertain manner OF what
has been done In the wholesale and
retail world here in the past year, is
shown in mere glance.
The postoffice is perhaps one of the
best viewpoints from which to see
what has been done and what Is being
done in business life in any city. The
stamp and stamped paper sales, the.
money order department each has its
record and figures to speak for them
selves.
1t Is fact that since the S0th day
of June, 1905, now five. years passed,
business for the relative quarters OF
this year and that has increased more
than $3,000-to be exact, $3,697. 40.
The gain during the month of June
this year over last is the largest in the
history of the Keokuk postoffice de-
partment.
1t would at first seem preposterous
that the sales for the quarter ending
June 80 this year, are more than fif-
teen hundred dollars greater than the
same quarter, 1908.
II All Looks Good.
And the postoffice department is
only one of the many ways that tell
the same advancement. prog
ress, better business and more of it
for Keokuk. Members of the hammer
gang" never shy at cold, hard words in
retort from the boosters, but at fig
ures, they always shy. A prepared
statement of comparative figures for
the quarters ending in June during the
past FIVE years will no doubt be rel
isned by those who are on the sunny
side and ever have word of encour-
agement for the doubling ones.
There follows an Abbreviated form
of the gains during quarters of the
past five yaers, which talk for them
selves and have been given out by the

the Importance Of graceful exit. He turned and

looks met.
