kEokuk AND BASEBALL.

The situation with regard to the
local baseball association is serious.
| It's precarious. If the game is saved
to this city it will need the immediate
support OF all-not few. 1t is about
| in that condition where pulmotor
needs to be applied-a cash pulmotor
| It Is argued and with some degree OF
Justice that if keokuk wanted base
ball it would support baseball. That
may be true, but the weather has
been so unfavorable this season that
the people have not had chance to
give expression, at least through at
tendance. whether they favor con-
tinuance of the national game or not.
Two good ball days out of the season
does not afford very fair opportun-
ity to test out the baseball spirit.
There Is probably something sent'-
mental about baseball in Keokuk. This
city has been in the league SO lonS
that a withdrawal is looked upon rs
not only harmful in an advertising way
for the city but it would be like the
loss of a personal friend Being the
smallest city in the league for manv
years. pride has been manifested in
the ability of the citizens to maintat'
a. club while other larger cities haze
to see the city start any public move
ment that 1t cannot finish and to SIR.

from the sheriff Keok1k is going 70
have more people next year to sup
port not only baseball but other forms
of amusement and other public move
ments. Conditions have been encount.
cred this year that the directors could
not avoid. They cannot be held az
countable for the weather. With any
thing like the support given last
year the association would not be in
such pressing financial need. If con-
ditions do not change for the better
it would be unwise to attempt to get
through next year, but We ought to
go through this year. And the clue
can go through if the many give the
support needed and as arranged by the
directors. And conditions are going to
be much more favorable next year.
Take it from us.

Thin Folks Who
Would Be Fat
Increase In Weight Ten Pounds or
More
A Phxaician,a Advice

I'D certainly give most anything to
be able to fat up few pounds and
stav that way" declares every excess
sively thin man or woman. Such a
result is not inn ,ossible, despite past
failures. Thin people are victims of
mal-nutrition, a condition which pre-
vents the fatty elements of food from
being taken up by the blood as they
are when the powers of nutrition are
normal. Instead of getting into the
blood, all the fat and flesh producing
elements stay in the intestines until
they pass from the body as waste.
To correct this condition and to
produce a healthy normal, amount OF
fat the nutritive processes must be
artificially supplied with the power
which nature has denied them. This
can best be accomplished by eating
a Sargol table with every meal. Sar'
gol is a scientific combination of six
of the best strengthening, fat-pro'
ducing elements known to the medi.
cal profession. Taken with meals, II
mixes with the food and turns the
sugars and starches into rich, ripe
nourishment for the tissues and
blood and it's rapid effect is remark.
able. Reported gains of from ten to
twenty-five pounds in single month
are by no means infrequent. Yet is
action is perfectly natural and abso-
lutely harmless. Sargol is sold by
Wilkinsin & Co. and other druggists
everywhere and every package con.
tains a guarantee Of weight increase
or money back.
/ Caution:-While Sargoi has pro
duced remarkable results in the
treatment of nervous indigestion and
] general stomach disorders, it SHOULD
not, owing to its remarkable flesh
producing effect. be used by those
who are not willing to increase theil
weight ten pounds or more.
