important.
Cascarets Immediately cleanse and
regulate the stomach, remove the

depicts the troubles of the wrong

the canal has given away temporarily
to a greater industry, gigantic en-
terprise which promises Keokuk the
greatest dam and the greatest water
power in the world. And the people
who were skeptic at first travel miles
to see it and return to their homes
with the convinced and enthusiastic
exclamation:
1t is far greater than my magma
ton could possibly have painted it"
This temporary lull in the ice indus
try will last for but one season prob
ably when it will be re-opened with
enlarged activity. BY another season
the broad and lengthy Lake Keokuk
will be formed, spreading out grandly
and placiuly over the old shores of
Iowa and Illinois, and from Keokuk up
and up until it kisses the feet of our
clever twin sister and neighbor, Fort
Madison. What field that will be
for the harvesting of ice!
Keokuk is to be warmly congratn-
lated that she has grown to such 4
vious commercial and civil conditions
that the temporary suspension of SO
great an industry as ice harvesting
was in the past is not felt in the least
this year. There will be no lack OF
ice, however. The ice men are on the
alert and will be well supplied though
not from the canal as formerly. The
Gate City in recent number dis
cussed this question. The new veal
| opened with no ice harvest on the
canal. Keokuk by this time mex

all callers with the finest ice in thu

Try Olive TabIets-the Substitute
For Calomel.

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets are the
one substitute for dangerous calomel.
They do all of calomel's work with
out any of its bad after effects.
There is no necessity, when you
take Olive Tablets, of following them
up with nasty, sickening, gripping salts
or castor oil, as you should after TAX
ing calomel
Olive Tablets do not contain Gallo
mel or any other metallic drugs; they
are a purely vegetable compound
mixed with olive oil, sugar-coated,
easy to take, and never grippe or
cause weakness.
Thousands of people take one every
night at bedtime just to prevent dis
order of the liver, constipation, bad
breath, pimples, headache, etc.
Olive Tablets are made of pure
vegetable compounds mixed with olive
oil.
DR. Edwards, calomel's old enemy,
discovered the formula for Olive Tab

among patients afflicted with liver

Gathered.
p.oIon is Given Over to Something
Much More Important Than
the Gathering Of the Ice
Cakes.

Time was when this period of the
year was looked upon as great sea-
son in Keokuk at which many men
looked forward to the ice harvest when
theys would be able to replenish their
ampty. purses and fill up their scant
larders. In fact it was the years
epoch. When the ice on the canal
became thick enough to cut that local
ty became busy harvest field or the
scene Of many fields, each with its
boundary distinctly marked out and
voc unto the ice man who allowed
his men to encroach upon the bound
ary of another ice man.
The scene has changed. Keokuk's
working men no longer must depend
upon 4 labor epoch each year as an
uplift from empty purses and scant
larders. The city has outgrown these
conditions. There are more men in
Keokuk suffering today from over
work than are complaining from lack
Of work. Retail merchants look no
brighter and expectant over the com
Ing Of the ice season than they do at
any other change of season.
The canal zone, however, is Of more
Interest than it ever was before. There
are great force of men at work and
the whole population of the city and
for miles and miles away are con-
scious Of it. They hear and even feel
IT in their flesh and bones, even in
their very spirits.
Time was that at this season people
we're aroused by the rumble of the
wagons in the early morning before
the stars went out, hauling ice from
the canal, and the best ice harvested
at any point along the Mississippi
river from source to mouth. 1t is diff
