HAPPY RESULTS OBTAINED.
BY the Use Of the New scalp Antiseptic

It wouldn't take long to number the
hairs in the heads Of some people,
the reason being they haven't many
to number. In most instances, how
ever, the fault is their own. A germ
at the root soon plays havoc with the
most luxurious growth and causes it
to fade and fall out. A remedy for
this has recently been discovered
called Newbro's Herpicide, that acts
by destroying the germ that does the
damage, besides removing all impuri
ties from the scalp. In addition il
permits new life and vigor to enter
the scalp, and happy results are sure
to be obtained from its use. Try it

II. Meat Producers, Demands.


Iowa City Republican, AS the Re-
publican understands the contention
Of the shippers who are asking lower
rates on hogs to Chicago, granting
of the application would be hard
blow at the packing interests OF the
state. The Iowa Corn Belt Meat Pro-
ducers Association has long and
high sounding name, but from the
many things 1t has asked, many are
suspicious that it is selfish concern,
not working for the best interests OF
the people who really produce the
hogs. Iowa farmers have profited
greatly because Of the competition at
forded them by the big packing
houses at Sioux City, Cedar Rapids
and Ottumwa and the smaii ones at
other places. The Iowa rates are
very low and this has tended to keel
Iowa hogs at home for packing pur
poses. The men back of the demand
for lower rates are interested in ship
ping to Chicago If the lower rates
prevail, the shippers no doubt woult
get better profit. but the farmers
would never see cent of 1t. Th'
best interests of the state, we believe
Is to encourage the Iowa packers ant
not force hog shipments to Chicago

A NEEDED IMPROVEMENT
Launch Men, Civic Federation and
Others VIII Unite in Beautify-
ing the keokuk River
Front.

1t is whispered, aye, it is a certain
ty, that Keokuk,s present levee, the
one eyesore of the city, is to be no
more. Already, plans and schemes are
being concocted for the removal of
the old land marks and existing condi-
tions WHICH have graced, or rather
disgraced, the front door of the Water
Power City for so long. The old levee
is to be thing Of the past, it is said
Rumor current today has it that with
in few months, the disreputable
mantle of the river front of Keokuk
will be removed and the place clothed
In garments bright and new and in
harmonious blend with the happy
spirit of the power dam"
Those who are behind this prime
movement to beautify the lower part
of the city are sure that their eff
forts will bear fruit and within few
months with the opening of spring, a
new water front will have taken the
place of the one now destined to be
short lived.
Last spring and summer it will be
remembered, there was talk among
the members of the Keokuk motor
boat cub or taking hold OF the task
and making picturesque and beauti-
full steamboat landing and river front.
A park was talked of; grass and trees
were to be planted and Major M.
Meigs, U. S. government engineer,
promised that dredge should be put
to work and sand pumped from the
river and deposited behind a wall of
concrete or stone, which could be
built along the water for several hun
dred yards.
Nothing further was heard from the
launch men after their first discus
sions OF the matter, however, and IT
was thought that the proposition was
dead and buried. Today, however, a
Gate City reporter was led to some
hints that look good and the citizens
of old Keokuk can bank on more
garden-of-Ed Incorporating levee within
few months, or as soon as work can
be commenced In the spring.
/ Some time within the next ten days
there is to be meeting of the Fedora
ton of Laymen of this city. At thai
meeting, besides other topics of deer
interest to be discussed, the civic com
mittee will bring forward their plans
for making new and clean levee ou
Of the one now existing. The mattel
will be discussed at length and witt
the promise of Major Meigs to do hi
part in fixing up the river front, act
, i've work on the removal of the oil
buildings, the building of the concret
wall and other necessary improve
ments will be looked after.
The matter Is one which should D
: given the hearty support Of all cit
!, zens and though it is needed tina
some organization be back OF the in
provenrent work, all can take par
and boost for new, cleaner Keoku
river front
