The other day a New York
newspaper had an item, sent out
from Atlanta, telling how Rachel
IdeIson, aged 9, was lobbying
with the Georgia legislature for
the creation of a new county.
1t said that every day the little
girl mingled with the lawmakers
and that her arguments were

proving of great weight.

HOTEL STOCK
IS POPULAR
Plan Outlined by MIR. Cooper consd-
cred a Good Proposition From
Every Angle by keokuk
Citizens.
PREFERRED STOCK GOES
Attractive Both as an Investment
and as Great Boosting Feature
for the Future of
Old keokuk.


That the plan of financing new,
modern hotel here is popular is strong
ly indicated by the early subscrip-
tions to the six per cent preferred
stock.
Within two hours of the publication
of Mr.. Cooper's letter last evening,
$4,000 had been subscribed, and this
morning before 8 O'Clock $1,000 had
been telephoned in to j. P. Allen at
the Water Power company Offices.
The more the plan was studied, the
better it looked to men familiar with
investments Six per cent Is very at
tractive these days. 1t is evident
that the hotel manager will have to
pay dividends on the preferred stock
before he gets cent of income from
his own common stock, which gives
him a very strong incentive to pay
those dividends, and students of the
situation have already figured how he
lis perfectly safe with his own $4,000
of common stock, for the income is
sure to be over the $4,000 a year re
iquired to take care of the preferred
and bond charges.

FRANTIC WITH ECZtMA
ITCHING AND BURNING DRIVE
ONE ALMOST MAD.
Try This Remedy at Our Risk.

Children, and grown persons too,
are so often driven almost frantic
with the intolerable itching and burn
ing of eczema and other skin trou-
bles, that remedy which will not
only secure their immediate comfort,
but also clear away the eruption in a
short time, is nothing less than
public benefit.
1t is remarkable that SO mild and
harmless an application as our new
skin remedy, saxo salve, can stop
the itching so quickly as 1t does.
And it's penetrating healing power

If you have any itching, or burning
rash or humor of the skin, any scaly
or chronic old skin trouble, Saxo
Salve is what you need and you
should try this splendid remedy. NC

going home, not far away he saw a
negro whistling along in careless
way. The two were nearing each
other and when they came in close
proximity the negro sprang upon the
workman, who yelled Justify, and the
negro left in haste. It was evidently
an attempt to hold UP the workman
and rob him of whatever valuables he
might have on his nerson.

Remarking that he didn't eat apples,

He moulds the clay into various
