No false pretense has marked the
career of Ely's Cream Balm. Being
entirely harmless, it is not responsible
like the catarrh snuffs and powders, for
minds shattered by cocaine. The great
virtue of Ely's Cream Balm is that it
speedily and completely overcomes
nasal catarrh and hay fever. Back of
this statement is the testimony of
thousands and a reputation of many
years success. All druggists, Soc. or

F'resnel Signal Lamps.

The Missouri Pacifc-Iron
Mountain is installing the Fres-
mel Signal Lamp on the rear end
of it's trains. This is the same
light used aboard ships and on
steamboats,. 1t is a long, mar
row belt of light and gives a
spread of illumination OF 40 de-
grees on either side of q central
point, or, a total illumination of
50 degrees. The ordinary signal
lamp used on the rear end OF
trains is the small bullseye, and
while the light is bright, it has
no spread, throwing out only a
thin line of illumination directly
back of the train.
The big advantage Of the wide
spread OF light that the Fresnel
lens gives is that in rounding a
curve it spreads it rays in all di-
rections over the land, so that
trains on the other turn OF the
curve can plainly see it, whereas
they cannot observe the light OF
the ordinary train signal lamp.
This fact gives the Fresnel lens
a great advantage in the line OF
safety.
The problem OF getting a light
that would carry around curves
is one on which the railroads
have been working for years, be-
cause it means so much to them
from the standpoint of safety.
The Fresnel lens has been work.
ed on by numerous railroads, bu'
there were mechanical problems
connected with it they were I'm
able to overcome. Mr.. B. H
Mann, chief signal engineer 0.
Missouri Prcific-Iron Mountain
has been working for overa yea
to overcome these defects ant
has finally succeeded in perfect
ing the lamp 50 that it can b
used on railroad trains.

The freight movement or the
Missouri Pacifc-lron Mountain
has shown a most decided IN
crease lately. The largest move
ment in the history Of these lines
occurred Friday, October 6th'
when Il, 300 loaded cars were
handled. On that day there were
only five cars on the entire 75oV
mile of track Of the system when
had been standing over "a hours
without movement. The follow
ing day, Saturday, October 9TH,
the movement WAS almost as
great as on Friday, there being
1oO49 loaded cars handled. On
Saturday there was not a single
car on the entire system which
had stood "a hours.
The largest single days load
ing on the tracks OF the company
in its history occurred Monday,
October 9th, when 34l5 cars
were loaded on the Missouri
Pacifc-Iron Mountain tracks
This is exclusive of a few thou
sand cars received from lines,
which were moved over the COM
pany's tracks on that day. This
heavy movement Of freight is in
dicative of a good, healthy con
dition of affairs, especially in the

Watermelon Day Parade.

The committee on parade for
Watermelon Day is meeting with
flattering success and the show this
year promises to eclipse anything of
the kind ever seen in the city. Those
willing to take part in the parade
are requested to notify Julius Ber-
mann. Automobile owners, horse
back riders, farmers, merchants and
all others are invited to take part.
There will be no prizes this year.
Upon former occasions there were
so many floats Of superior merit that
it was difficult for the judges to de-
eide and the committee has conclud-
ed that it was best not to offer
prizes. Webster City has won de-
served reputation for getting up a
fine parade and it is to be hoped
and it is believed that the attrac-
tons in that direction this year will
be the best ever seen in Iowa.
