There is no better Judge of shoe wear

Neolin -soled shoes: my shoes with
Ne5lin Soles serve me better than any
others have ever used. They keep my
feet dry at all times, and do not slip"
! When you buy new shoes, be sure
they are Neolin- soled, and you, too, will
knowa better service from shoes. More
over, these shoes are real economy be-
cause of the extra wear they give. Most
good shoe stores carry them in styles
for men, women, and children.
And don't throw away your old shoes.
Have them re-soled with Neolin Soles.

the car will on conviction be guilty
of felony punishable by a fine of not
less than $500 nor more than $1,000, or
jail sentence of not MORE than one
year, or both.
The Court Procedure.
There has been considerable con-
troversy in the past over the right OF
courts to seize automobiles in which
liquor is being transported. Senator
Whitmore's bill, 1t is said, removes
all doubt in the matter.
The measure provides for an appli.
cation for a hearing before the court
by the county attorney or other means
of transportation as the case may be.
From the money received at the
sale, the court costs are to be deduct
ed with reasonable attorneys fees,
and $25 for the person or persons who
gave information resulting in the con-
viction.
Providing for informers.
There also is a provision in the bill
. by which any reputable citizen may go
before any magistrate and make a
written statement to the effect that
he believes certain automobile or
other conveyance Is used to transport
intoxicating liquor When this is done
the magistrate or judge must issue a
search warrant and direct an officer
to seize the same if it is found to con-
tain liquor.
The money received from the sale
of the car may be applied to the fine
imposed or to court costs Of the de-
l6IudHL duu dly DdldHSe itlldlll-
ing must be turned over to the school
fund.
The measure is deemed to have
more teeth" in 1t than any yet in.
troduced in the present session.
Another Way Out.
A well posted man suggested today
that Keol1uk might lose its chance to
buy the booze carrying automobiles
cheap. If the transportation managers
changed their route from Warsaw via
the ferry to Alexandria, and thence
through Kahoka and out that way to
Bloomfield.
There is an excellant road this way,
except for thirty miles across the state
line between Missouri and Iowa, where
is stretch which is partly merely a
wagon track on the charted and best
route.
But that kind OF a road has its ad.
vantages to one desiring to cross a
state line, inconspiculously. 1t was
pointed out. and the new law may d.
vert the traffic that way to the benefit
OF the Warsaw-Alexandria ferry and
the loss OF the Keokuk and Hamilton
bridge.

SOME ARE FINE ONES
Every Automobile Carrying Booze

Some fine automobiles may DC
bought by the highest bidder at the
door of the county court house OF heo
kuk next summer, if a bill which pass
ed the Iowa senate unanimously pass
es the house as is expected.
1t provides that every auto'noplie
used in the transportation OF booze
shall be seized and sold by the sher'
iff.
Keokuk is on the direct route, IN
fact the port of entry, of the booze
traffic from Warsaw, Illinois, to Des
NDoines, Omaha and even Lincoln Ne
braska, by automobile.
The automobiles in this traffic are
good ones, as they must be, to make
the fast and long trips, largely al
night, between Warsaw and Nebrt ska,
or even % Des Moines-
