TO CURE UNTIDY HOUSEWIVES
Cry of Anarchists" Stops Habit of
Shaking TableeIoth Out
of Window.

Apparently the best way to break
untidy housewives of the habit of
shaking tableeloth out of the win
dow is to shout Anarchist" at them.
This can easily be done if the table
cloth is red and the neighborhood Sc
ditious. A policeman whose special
ty is anarchists gave valuable aid to
a settlement worker who had expati-
ated in vain on the beauties of a
crumb tray and brush. The woman
she labored with watched each dem
onstration and said ''Oh, yes, miss ;
amt that nice?" but when they
cleared their own tables the cloths
were shaken out of the window. One
day the visitor witnessed that per-
,formance from the street. A police
man saw it, too.
~Hi, there, you bloomin' anar-
chist," he growled. you'll get
pinched for shakin' that red rag the
first thing you know"
His threat was an inspiration to
the settlement worker.
"Oh," said she, "wouid you mind
going upstairs and telling her that !?
All these people are scared to death
for fear they will be suspected of an
archist affiliations"
He went. The next time the vis-
itor made the rounds every woman
made it a point to show how dex-
trous she had become with a brush
and tray.

The rosary, in the Catholic church,
is series Of prayers consisting of
fifteen Pater Nosters (Our Fathers)
and hundred and fifty Ave Marias
(Hail Mary's) which, for the conven-
fence Of worshipers are counted on
string of beads. Each rosary. or string
of beads, consists of fifteen decades,
each of which decades contains one
Pater Noster. marked by large bead
and ten Ave Marias, marked by ten
smaller beads. The festival Of the ro-
sary was instituted to implore the d.
vine mercy in favor of the church and
all the faithful and return thanks for
the benefits conferred on them, more
especially for the victory OF Leparto
in 1871, over the Turks
This success, believed to have been
obtained through the intercession of
the Virgin, who Is SO especially in

ADJUSTMENTS.
aThe Rosary"


At the present day when 80 many
plays are being presented which deal
with questionable subjects, 1t is re-
lief to turn to drama which breathes
purity and good fellowship and leads
the way to brighter view Of life and
humanity.
Such play is THE Rosary" writ
ten by Edward z. Rose, expressly for
Messrs. Rowland and Clifford, and
produced by them.
The theme of the play concerns a
man and woman happily married
and surrounded with every luxury
that money and culture can secure.
But the husband Is an unbeliever, an
atheist, without faith of any kind.
There is a EARRING note in the house
hold harmony, personality at war
with the peace and love Of its men,
bers. No one notices this until a
friend OF the husband comes, Father
Kelly, priest of the modern world
with deep insight into human ma
ture and divine love for his fellow
men. And when stress and troubles
come, when the home is wrecked and
husband and wife are brought down to
the depths of suffering agony, 1t is

Walter Brothers, our meat market
dealers have a corn contest on and
are receiving large number Of ears
of corn as to who will receive the
prize of some choice cuts of meat, to
be given to the lucky exhibitor. 1t is
a wise move on the part of this popu-
lar meat market firm and the lucky
one will be well remunerated for
bringing in the best six ears of corn.
Louis Schoell has inaugurated a
fine grinding machine to secure corn
meal of the best quality. He is very
particular in supplying the best grade
Of this product and does it for the
accommodation of Nauvoo's people
and vicinity.
Mrs. E. X. Parker and Mrs. Ward
and children will visit with Mr.. and
Mrs. McCandless during the week.

Nauvoo the latter part of last week
and enrolled large list of subscribers
for The Gate City. This fine daily Is

Keokuk business men ought to make a
note Of this. Keokuk business men
will reap large benefits by placing

In Nauvoo and vicinity.
The city OF Keokuk formerly had
great entertainments to amuse near
by people from towns and rural dis
tricts when such people as John Ma
gel, Jas. Finigan, Jack Ward, Hugh
Craig, Ed Kirschner and others had
the matter in charge. They attracted
people for miles in and about the diff
ferent directions OF Keokuk They ar
ranged stupenduous amusements Of a
first-class order and brought people to
Keokuk from miles around to visit the
enterprising city before the great dam
project was thought Of. They got tired
Of their work and let others do 1t.
Place these gentlemen at the front
again and see what they will do
for the growing city of Iowa to at
tract people from all sections sur
rounding the coming metropolis OF
Iowa.

after the civil war, died at the home
of his son-in-law Tuesday morning of
complication of diseases. He has
made his residence in Nauvoo since
1890 and has continuously resided
here among his children ever since.
At the time Of his death he was about

The Rustler scores your correspond
ent for making mention of the repair
ing Of Martin hill going west on Null
holland street in Nauvoo. We think it
is good improvement and benefit
to our city, but the work was done at
bad season of the year, just in the
grape harvest and coal hauling time,
when the transfers are compelled to
use other hills, some unfit for use and
the other a roundabout way. This
editor also says there Is not a short
age of money and the city is good for
anything it needs. Well and good. The
writer is no kicker on substantial i'm
provements, but we take the tax-pay-
ers and boosters point OF view in all
these matters. This same editor scores
the fellows who own no real estate
and spend most of their time killing
booze. The can rushers are as bad as
the booze killers who own real estate,
and tax payers, and they are informed
how much money Is allowed to make
street improvements. We have 1t from
the most reliable source that there Is
not much more money available for
street work, and what's to become of
other streets that need repairing be-
fore spring arrives?

Like Using Cream

The milk comes to you thick % thick
cream. For coffee and cereals most people dilute
IT, It is 2s per cent solids, per cent butter fat.
In coffee 1t tastes like the richest cream. On
cereals it tastes like sterlized In cooking
it gives you richness and favor never obtained
from raw milk.
Not because Of anything added. This is simply
the whole rich milk. That favor is only the
natural taste of whole milk.
Milkman's milk separates so you rarely get the
whole milk. Butter fat rises and solids fall.
When that milk gets to the cooking it is rarely
