the older inorganic iron products, it is

Some of them were taken home az
empty as they came, as their OWL
ers had put off the policy of pre-
paredness until too late and there
was none Of their fayorite brand left

The closing exercises were marked
by cheerfulness on both sides of the
bar and by an almost complete abb
sence of rowdyism. or course. there
were some worthless who had inn
bibed more than they could comfort
ably carry, but they did not make
themselves particularly obnoxious to
the others present.
The downtown streets were well
filled during the late afternoon with
the punches of fellows going from
one well-loved haunt to another to
assist in the obsequies. Those who
happened to have the privilege of
getting the last drink at any place
were the envy of all the others. 1t
was an honor wanted by ali and in
many cases was claimed by at least
ten persons. Souvenirs of empty
bottles, glasses and beer openers were
in great demand and will be cherished
as relics for years to come of the
days when Iowa was wet.
Many from Illinois.
It was noticeable that many of the
celebrants Friday night were from the
neighboring towns in Illinois. Some
of the more fragrant cases of in, XXI.

were waiting for interurban cars, or
who weaved an uncertain passage to-

where they slept off the effects, and
arose with parched mouth and Il

Years resolutions. They were coon
brought up short in this search, when
they recalled the desert-like condi-
lions which were prevailing here,
yesterday. and hied themselves for
wetter haunts across the borders.
Only Weather is Wet.
One of the saloon men who was
working on some accounts at his desk
in the window OF his tightly locked
place yesterday, heard tapping on
the window. A bleary eyed individual
who looked about as enthusiastic as
a coal HEAVIER at a lecture on en-
broidery, yeued through the glass:
"Whereinell can guy get some
beer?"
Prom a brewery, l suppose" was
the ready response from behind the
plate glass.
Another party who wished friend
Happy New Year. was threatened
with a load of buckshot for wishing
any such gladstone thing on the day
that the state goes dry.
But these were incidents that were
few and far between. For the most
part Keokuk was philosophical about
it all, and accepted it as the newt
able. The weather alone kicked over
the traces, and it was about the wet

Friday and for half Of the day yes

Only Three Arrests for Intoxi-

IN SWAN SONG
Brewery Siren Sang Itself Dry,
Many Thirst Parlors Quit
Before Nine O'clock
Came.

Three arrests for intoxication
were all that disturbed the
peaceful passing Of the Keo-
kuk bars Friday night at nine
o'clock To the casual observer, the
thirst parlors might only have been
closing up for the night, as they
have for hundreds OF other nights
before a legal holiday. Everything
seemed to be orderly, except for the
few minor disturbances taken care Of
by the police.
Many Of the bars closed before nine
o'clock. The proprietors in all Of the
saloons whose stock was depleted
early in the evening ordered the clos
ing of the doors even before the time
allowed by the law All of the thirst
when bartenders dumped their aprons
on the bar, possibly for the last time
in Iowa.
The hands Of the clock creeping
towards the nine o'clock mark were
anxiously watched by many of the
habitues of the bars. While there
were some who carried excess bag
gage inside, and who were having
difficulty in making port, the ma
jority of the men who celebrated the
closing of the saloons, did SO in a
very orderly way. There was little

played, although there was little
doubt but that they had been applied.
Brewery Whistles Swan Song.
! A wailing, screeching sound smota
the air about nine o'clock and con-
tinued for almost an hour, ending in
one waiting note. 1t was the whistle
at the Pechstein and Nagel brewery.
Steam was being let out of the boil
ers and the old whistle was singing
it's swan song. The "whoopee" OF

CARE OF REFRIGERATORS.
Why They Should Be Kept Clean and
How to Do It.


An inSanitary refrigerator is danger
Gus because it means disease and per
haps worse See that yours is clean
and sweet.
Keep the door closed; otherwise the
temperature rises and the ice melts
rapidly.
If the box is kept clean it Is not nee
essary to scald it out. but 1t is a wise
precaution to do this occasionally. Re
member that ice is more than apt to be
dirty, so it is wise to watch the recep-
tacle for the ice. that there he no leaves
or anything collected there to decay or
to clog the pipe. This pipe or the pan
beneath should never be allowed to get
Shiny. as slime is danger signal.
Once a week wash the walls, sides,
shelves and every corner with cold wa
ter, boraX and any sweet, pure soap,
rinse with clear water and wipe dry.
The shelves may be taken out and
scalded. but must be chilled and wiped
dry before they are returned.
If anything is spilled, wipe it up at
once, and be sure each day that there
are no refuse bits of food lying about.
1t is best to keep everything covered.
1t is imperative that milk and butter
should always be covered and If posi-
BILE kept in separate compartment.
Do not keep food too long, to spoil
and sour and thus scent up the ice
box.

CARE OF AUTO TIRES.
How They Should Be Treated to Con-
serve Their Life.

Buy tire tester 1t will cost about 81.
To prevent rim cutting and broken
down fabric keep tires inflated to the
following pressure: Three inch tire, 60
pounds; three and one-half inch, 20
pounds; four inch. so pounds; four
and one-half inch, 90 pounds; five
inch, 100 pounds.
Seal all cuts in rubber either with
preparation made for the purpose or
by vulcanization. This is important to
prevent moisture and sand from reach
ing the fabric.
When not in use keep tires in a cool,
dark place.
Do not starr or stop the car suddenly.
Do not turn corners at high speed.
Be sure the front wheels are parallel.
Do not allow oil to get on the tires.
Do not use too much or too little tale
in the tires. Too little causes the tubes
to stick, while too much causes a grad
ual accumulation into solid lump,
which is a frequent cause Of pune
ture.
Do not put tire on a rusted rim.
