words cover the entire ground-re-

know our business and attend to it
steadily. Ask your friends about that.
Second, we must not charge you too
much. Ask us In advance what our

HUMANE SOCIETY IN

At the meeting of the Rock Island
Humane society held at the associa-
ton house, 6S7 seventeenth street, last
evening, the financial secretary re-
ported collection for the month passed

the immediate stress of the society,
it still leaves but little money for the
future work of the society. If the
work is to be maintained and an Of

the friends of the society to make spe-
cial efforts in its behalf. A general
discussion concerning the future of
the society resulted in the appoint
ment of committee to perfect plans
looking towards its permanent sup
port. The humane officer, Writ Tay-
