cept a bath tub, which was put in
They. make an ideal hospital, really
unsurpassed in the state in its struct-
ure.
The influenza cases are to be in the
basement rooms, which have a sepa-
rate entrance opening upon Sixth
street. There are several large rooms
used as wards with q multitude oil
cots. It is a half basement, light airy,
and with perfect sanitation. In another
part of the basement is the well
equipped kitchen of the Elks' club
which went with the building to the
hospital organization.
All patients in the emergency hospt
tai remain the patents Of their own
doctors. and all licensed physicians In
town are on its medical staff.
Influenza Disappearing Here.
At 10 o'clock this morning there
were twelve less cases in town than
at the same hour yesterday, and these
were in five less homes. The effect OF
the board of health closing order is
appearing in the five days required
for them to show, and influenza has
begun to disappear in Keokuk.
At 10 o'clock today there were 249
cases of influenza in 162 homes in the
entire city of Keokuk
The figures kept talbulated and card
indexed in the Office Of the board OF
health show ample proof that the
measures put into effect last week by
the Keokuk board are efficient to pre-
vent big epidemic in Keokuk which
will escape lightly, as compared with
it's neighbors.

day at the local market today, esti-

was some uneyenness to be noted,
most sales were quoted as around a

We have spoken now, surely, in
terms too concrete to admit of any
further doubt or question. An evi.
dent principle runs through tie
whole program I have outlined, 1t
is the principle OF justice to all
peoples and nationalities, and their
right to live on equal terms of liberty
and safety with one another, whether
they be strong or weak. Unless this
principle be made its foundation no
part Of the structure of international
justice can stand. The people of tie
United States could act upon no
other principle, and to the vindica-
ton of this principle they are ready
to devote their lives, their honor
and everything that they possess.
The moral climax Of this, the cul-
minating and final war for human
liberty has come, and they are ready
to put their strength, their own
highest purpose, their own integrity
and devotion to the test.

There But One
Safe Way to Buy

| keep in close touch with market
conditions of food products. | am correctly
informed as to the cash and food value of practically every
article of table and baking use. My knowledge and close
acquaintance with baking materials and their quality and
money worth passed on to you in my articles, should aid in
the selection of proper foods at proper prices.
You have often heard the expression
that water seeks its own level" This same
thought might well be applied to merchandise.
Inferior merchandise may find a
ready demand when first put on the market
but its inferiorty is soon found out-and its sale usually takes
a slump. Hence / have come to the conclusion that the
biggest seller is the best buy.
When some certain brand is given
a wide preference over all similar merchandise
it means but one thing-msra has proved it best.
So it follows that if housewives would
purchase only merchandise that meets the
greatest demand their buying would be far more satisfactory.
| have noticed invariably that the
demand for a product always verifies the value
of product determined by scientific sts-whch proves my
contention conclusively.
Take baking powder. The biggest selling
brand on the market today proved to me by the most critical
experiments that 1t is entitled. to the preference it has gained.
There are more pounds of Calumet sold than
any other brand of baking powder. Usage has proved its

THE sEVEN-HOUR DAY

Mr.. Gompcrs. president Of the
American Federation Of Labor, pro-
poses a soycn-hour day.
Who would have thought such a
proposition would be- seriously
made. at least while the war is on?
Out here on the Pacific coast we
are building ships with three
eight hour shifts per day.
In some plants controlled by
union labor the men insist on work
ing overtime at time and one-half
and double pay.
or course, MIR. Gompers would
put into effect the scVcn-hour day
at the same wage now paid for
eight hours
The advantage 10 the unions of a
seycn-hour day will be- the excuse
for more overtime at pay-and-a-
half, or doublc-pay.
