Despite The chill wintry blast the
two young men decided upon an after

the swift running river.
When they returned their noses
were shrammed with cold, but through

The young lady-she was sister to
one of the fishermen and the apple of

"Ah," she remarked teasingly, $50

THE LAST WEEK.

The contest over the republican
gubernatorial nomination which.
about the time Judge Lee entered the
field after his raid on that historic
game Of rhum, at once became the
headline feature of the ante-primary
campaign, for several weeks has been
lacking in highly exciting features and
promises now to draw prosily to a
close, says the Sioux City Journal.
Governor Clarke seems to have
been gaining ground steadily. Lees
campaign, which caused such fur
ry in its early stages, appears to have
suffered slump, although the Web
ster City F'reeman-Tribune, the Boone
and other papers
which have been supporting him, in
The daily Gate City. [volume] (Keokuk, Iowa) 1855-1916, 1914-05-26

sist that a majority OF the farmers
will vote for him. Little is heard
about Rowley. Both Lee and Rowley
have made as much capital as posi-
BILE out of the taxation issue, Rowley
the while vigorously accusing Lee OF
poaching on his preserves. Clarke
stands on his record, and his friends
Insist that it is one that entities him
to the second term which almost in
variably has been accorded Iowa's
chief executives.
That the people are not nearly SO
much excited over the taxation issue
or any other issue, as some OF the
politicians would like to have it
thought has been demonstrated by
the inability of any Of the candidates
to attract audiences of respectable
size at their so-called rallies.
Little has been card about the
Hamilton McGinnis contest for the
democratic gubernatorial nomination,
but Hamilton is regarded as the GER
tain nominees, The democrats are ex-
pecting to reap at the polls some
benefit from the telling that has crop
ped out among the supporters OF the
various republican candidates.
Harding easily is the favorite for
the republican nomination for lieuten-
ant governor over Barber. Ames and
Myers are contesting for the same
honor in the democratic ranks.
The fact that there are five candi-
dates for the republican nomination
for auditor suggests the possibility OF
none getting the required IS per cent
of the total primary vote. which
would pass the nomination on to the
state convention. There are only
two candidates for the democratic
nomination.
The only other state Offices over
which there is q scramble on the re-
publican side of the fence are the two
railroad commissionerships, for which
there are six candidates. Clifford
Thorne and Col. David j. Palmer are
the retiring commissioners, and
Thorne is q candidate for renomina-
ton.
with the exception OF the attorney
generalship there are two candidates
for every democratic nomination.
There are no contests among the
or the socialists. both OF
whom, however. have full tickets IN
tie field.
This is the last week OF the ante
primary campaign and will be busy
one for all candidates. The primaries
will be held Monday, June /.

FREE SPACE GRAFT.

Nearly every mail now brings to
the newspaper offices OF the state let
tiers from the various candidates for
state Offices, setting forth their
peculiar fitness for the job to which
they aspire, also the request that the
enclosed item be published as mat
ter Of news to enlighten the voters,
says the Donneiison Review. The
voters are enlightened enough, but it
is about time that these etate candi
dates were enlightened to the fact
that space in a newspaper is worth
money; in fact it is about the only
revenue producer in newspaper Of
fee and they should not expect a
newspaper to assist in electing them
to an office Just for the exercise there
is in it, and then allow them to draw
the salary and get all the glory. They
would be a smuch justified in writing
to the merchants of town asking
them to set out box of cigars for the
general public, or the saloonkeeper to
set out free drinks in their behalf. OF
course, if you have a personal friend
who is a candidate for Office, it Is
natural that you should say few
words in his behalf, but as the aver

To Put On Flesh
And Increase Weight

Most thin people eat from four to
six pounds of good solid fat-making
food every day and still do not IN.
crease In weight one ounce, while on
the other hand many OF the plump,
chunky folks eat very lightly and
keep gaining all the time. It's all
bosh to say that this is the nature OF
the individual. It isn't Natures way
at all.
Thin folks stay thin because their
powers of assimilation are defective.
They absorb Just enough of the food
they eat to maintain life and sem
blance of health and strength. Stuff
ing won't help them. A dozen meals
day won't make them gain single
"stay there" pound. All the fatpro-
ducing elements of their food just
stay in the intestines until they pass
from the body as waste. What such
people need is something that will
prepare these fatty food elements so
that their blood can absorb them and
deposit them all about the body
something, too, that will multiply
their red blood corpuscies and in
crease their blood's carrying power.
For such a condition always
recommend eating Sargol tablet
with every meal. Sargol is not, as
some believe, patented drug, but is
q scientific combination OF six OF the
most effective and pow srful flesh
building elements known to chemis-
try. It Is absolutely harmless, yet
wonderfully effective and q single
tablet eaten with each meal often has
the effect OF increasing the weight OF
a thin man or woman from three to
five pounds week. Sargol Is sold
by Wilkinson & Co, and other good
everywhere on a positive
OF weight increase or money
back.
