ton.

Piggly4 Wiggly received an ova-
ton to-day when it opened another
of its 300 stores located throughout
40 states, at 21S Eighteenth street.
Hundreds of people took a trip
.around the store in the PIGGY Wig
gly style to view the stock of ma
tional-known groceries which the
company carries. Carnations were
given as souvenirs to each visitor.
w. W. Orrick, district manager, and
Leo W. Clymer, city manager, re-
ceived the crowds.
The local store is situated in the
old location of the Rock Island
Daily Union. The fixtures are like
that of other Piggy Wiggly stores,
! the colors being brown, yellow and
blue. Entering on the left, the Gus
toner passes through the first isle
where he takes a basket, views the
prices and products, and. makes
! his choice. There are no statesmen
After winding through the store
| the location of the various mater
i ials being exactly alike in each OF
the Piggy Wiggly stores, the Gus
toner comes to the gate where his
purchase is added on machine,
wrapped, and payment made. The
store will carry fresh vegetables,
fruits, dairy products, bread, dried
fruits and groceries of all kinds.
The Piggy Wiggly company
opened a store in Moline i week
ago and has been operating one in
Davenport three years. The COM
pany is but five years old and has
| made itself a reputation which is
nationally known. 1t was founded
in Memphis, Tenn.

Questioned regarding rumors to
the effect that the Rock Island
County Fair association was on the
border of dissolution and that there
was little likelihood this years fair

Homer Palmer, Hillsdale, president

Mr.. Palmer stated that he had no
idea OF how such report started.
Plans for the annual Joslin fair.

all things point to a successful
season. Dates of the fair are Au-

one of them, located at Pekin, is
said to be in operation now. The
owners of the others, in petitions to
congress, have stated that they
cannot open their plants as long as
seaboard distilleries can import
blackstrap without paying a tariff.
AS the situation now stands,
blackstrap molasses> will not be
considered until near the close of
the tariff debate. Unless the farm
bloc" demands the desired duty for
the protection of farmers selling
corn. it is not believed the senate,
rushing to get through, will con-
slider the item again.

The federal judges bill, under
which Illinois will receive either
one or two more federal judge
ships. is gathering dust in the files
of the senate judiciary committee,
as far as can be ascertained. Sew
eral weeks ago the house conferees,
impatient at the delay of the SEN
ate representatives in coming to
an agreement on the provisions of
the bill, withdrew from discussion
and announced that the next move
was up to the senators. 1t is I'M
derstood that one of the provisions
the house conferees held out for
was the granting of two additional
judgeships to Illinois.
Though it seemed probable at
one time that Judge Lands sue
cessor in the Chicago district
would be named at once, regardless
of what became of the judges bill,
but latest information is that it,
too. will await the final report on
the bill The reason given for this
is the desire of Senators Mckinley
and Mccormick to name James H.
Wilkerson, assistant attorney-gen-
eral of Illinois to succeed Lands on
the ground that he is a Chicagoan
and therefore has the call over
Judge Adam Cliff, Sycamore.
Wilkerson is now occupied with
the Small trial at -Waukegan and
to appoint him before its conclu-
sion would be useless. Judge Cliff
will undoubtedly get the judgeship
to be provided for the northern 1lli-
nois district by the judges bill.

How Illinois senators voted last
week:
The house took only, two record
votes during the week, J those on
parliamentary matters.
On June 10, Senator David Walsh.
Massachusetts, proposed an amend
ment to the tariff which would
have put cash registers on the free
list, but it was rejected, and a IS
percent duty agreed upon. Sena-
tors Mccormick and Mckinley
voted against the amendment and
for the duty
On June II, the senate voted to
put a tariff duty on steel knives
amounting TO 55 percent of their
foreign value. Senators Mccormick
and Mckinley voted for the duty.

In order to ascertain how river
floods may best be checked and
damage to adjacent property pre-
vented, Senator Ramsdeil, Louis
ana, proposes to establish ma
tional hydraulic laboratory" and
has asked that congress provide
5000 900 for that purpose.
Ramsdeil's resolution refers to
the disagreement which exists
among the best authorities on
methods OF preventing flood dam
age. He would settle this by
means of systematic research and
careful study of flood control
through all ages. going back as far
as the days of Rome and Chaldea
if necessary.

Asserting that the work of the
Mississippi river commission will
be hampered if the million dollars
advanced for levee protection dur
ing the April floods is deducted
from future appropriations, Rep
resentative r. J. Wilson has intro
duced bill which would repeal
that stipulation.
The original resolution, in order
to get the money Immediately pro-
vided that the secretary of the
treasury should advance it against
future appropriations. The present
amendment assumes that the treas
ury is prosperous enough to afford
the levee repair without deducting
the cost from the money furnished
the Mississippi river commission in
the future.

Pleas OF Illinois farm bureaus
for a high tariff on blackstrap mo-
lasses. which eliminates corn as a
raw material for industrial alcohol
because OF its cheapness, bid fair
to go unheard- The senate decid-
ed last week to let the paragraph
on "blackstrap" go over until the
free Tfst is discussed. AS molasses
is now duty free. this is taken to
indicate that it may remain SO.
Senator Broussard of Louisiana,
Democrat, in a three-hour speech,
demanded the restoration of the
quarter-of-a-cent gallon duty put
on blackstrap by the house and re-
moved by the senate finance COM
mittee. Broussard charged that
importation of the molasses from
Cuba duty free would kill the mar
ket for 10000 900 bushels of corn
which American farmers sell an
nually to distiIleries for the manu-
facture of alcohol.

Increasing Efficiency of Chin.
neys and Fireplaces.

The fireplace is the heart of the
home and yet, how many smoky fire
places there are. The smoking fire
place and the unsatisfactory opera
ton of other heating arrangements
are often due to poorly construct
ed chimney, the United States De-
partment of Agriculture points out
in new Farmers Bulletin, No. 1890
"Chimneys and Fireplaces, How to
Build Them" by A. NJ. Daniels. The
common faults in chimney construc-
ton are discussed in detail and ex-
act directions are given for building
chinneys of suitable dimensions and
materials. The correct location and
size of hues are indicated and other
information is presented in clear
form.
Good draft in tie chimney is neces-
sary to efficient operation. Attention
is especially drawn to the fact that
chimney must extend about two feet
above the ridge Of tie house if it is
to have good draft. All chimneys
rest on masonry foundations in the
ground. The shape and size of the
hue is very important. Round fiues
are to be preferred but rectangular
ones are usual. A table is given
showing the proper relative diameter
| of the smoke pipe, flue, and the
height of the chimney.
THE problem of, the smoky fire
place is also dwelt upon from the
standpoint of "a fireplace construc-
ton. The need for a throat equal in
area to the area of the fue is ex-
planned, and emphasis is laid on the
Importance of smoke shelf about
8 inches above the throat of the
fireplace. Particulars of constructing
an ordinary fireplace properly, and
for installing warm-air fue for i'm
proved fireplace heating, are describ-
ed in the bulletin which will be sent
free upon application to the Depart
ment of Agriculture. Washington,

Swiss Santa Rings Bell.

In the quaint little town of st. Gal.
len, Switzerland, which has retained
many of its curious medieval customs,
Santa Claus makes his visits ringing a
gigantic cowbell, says Popular Science
Magazine.
In st. Gallen, ever; Christmas eve
twelve men array themselves in white
trousers and shirts, embroidered wool
suspenders, and bright red ties. Each
one fastens an enormous cowbell on
to wide leather belt, and covers his
head with an. enormous mask of card
board, the upper part Of which IS
decorated by stenciled designs.
One of the twelve, is called "Samf-
chlaus." 1t is his duty to give the good
children presents. The other eleven
remain at little distance on the out.
skirts of the jolly crowd that follows
them on their rounds. giving candy to
the grownups and entertaining every
body with their clowning.

cave-pweIIinq Snakes.

Until recent times no reptiles were
known to have adapted themselves to
existence in the darkness of caverns.
Now. however, it is known that in the
Malay peninsula snake, species
of coluber, inhabits certain caverns,
feeding upon the bats.
These cave-dwelling snakes attain
a length of between eight and nine
feet. Their coloring Stimulates that Of
the walls of the caverns. The rock
is a yellowish, limestone, traversed
with blackish veins, and these mark
ings and colors are curiously repro
duced In the snakes, many of which
lurk on the ledge in the semi darkness
near the entrances, watching for the
bats.

Plant More Bur Glover.

The season for putting out bur
clover seed is here. One of the prin-
cipal factors is early seeding to in
sure clover plants large enough to
stand the cold weather of winter.
The formula for certain success in
starting bur clover is to mix manure
inoculating soil and acid phospate
with the seed, and put on land that
has been cultivated this year. Where
considerable amount of manure
and seed are available, the mixture
can be broadcasted; but where linn
tied amount is used it is better to
drop in small piles. For broadcasting,
at least 10 bushels of seed in the bur
are needed, and for dropping in small
piles, about half as many. The land
does not need to be plowed or har-
rowed. Loose soil will allow the
plants to be pulled out by frosts in
the winter.
The amount of manure to mix with
the seed will depend on the condition
of the soil. On rich land, only enough
to insure incubation is needed, but
on poor land, enough needs to be ap-
Piled to fertilize the plants after
they appear. AS general rule, not
less than four times the bulk of the
seed, that is four bushels of manure
to one bushel of seed should be used,
and sometimes this should be increas-
ed. Weeds or cornstalks thrown on
CALLED spots will help protect the
clover in the winter also. One or two
sacks of acid phosphate and an equal
amount of inoculating soil from a
bur clover patch or an alfalfa field
will complete the mixture for an
acre.
To drop in small piles, fill wagon
with the mixture, and put two men
on behind with shovels. AS the wag-
on is driven slowly up and down the
fields, the men drop from quarter
Ito a half shovelful of the mixture
each two or three feet.-Progressive

TO MAKE HEADWAY IN LIFE
consecrate and Concentrate, Is the
Advice Given by Writer in
@ Forbes Magazine.

You want to make headway in the
world, of course. See if this thought
can help you: First, consecrate your
self to your calling; then concentrate.
The lives Of most men Of notable
achievement have been characterized
by conservation and concentration. Be
fore one can consecrate oneself, one
must be possessed by some bigger and
broader and better idea than mere
money making. There must be some
thing In the work that appeals to one.
The work must appear to be worth
while, worth effort and industry ami
sacrifice. You could not, for exam
pie, conceive Of anyone consecrating
himself to "bootlegging." There isn't
one honest calling, however, to which
worker could not consecrate him
self or herself If animated by the right
spirit. Having consecrated oneself to
a line of endeavor, then concentration
must follow If proficiency and success
are to be attained.
The worker, be hesemployee Or en-
ployer, who hasn't consecrated him.
self to his calling fails to derive from
it that deep satisfaction known to
those who have consecrated themselves
to their jobs. Concentration follows
conservation naturally and with JOY
rather than hard effort.-Forbes Mag

SETTER THAN ALL MEDICINE
Gys.ers Put Artemus Ward on His
F,set When Every Other Remedy
Had Proved Failure.

When Artemus Ward and DR.. Hing
ston. who acted as his manager on his
Nestcr1, lecture tour, arrived In Salt
Lake City, after that amusing and
successful visit to California, the be-
loved humorist. fell sick. So badly
was he, after his ardrous rounds OF
the Pacific coast and his strenuous
days in Virginia City, New, with Mark
Twain and Bill Nye, that his life was
sdespaired of.
The lecture Artemus had arranged
with Brigham Young to give in the
theater, had to be postponed. In fact,
so hopeless seemed the-case that DR..
Kingston even tried to arrange to have
The body of his friend and partner
transported to the East on the stage
coach. But the optimism of Artemus
brought him back to safety again, 9
very shin and weak man.
But before he was allowed to leave
his room, Artemus had difficulty gain
ing sufficient strength even to walk.
From Brigham Young to the least
humble of the Mormon saints atten-
tions In the form of fresh eggs, jellies
and other helpful delicacies were
showered upon the convalescent. Ar.
temus enjoyed everything, but nothing
seemed to give him strength.
At last food was discovered In 8
local grocery, so we are told, that
'slifted him from his couch" This
was nothing more or less than a dozen
cans of Baltimore oysters, put up In
squares of block tin. The first oyster
stew shit the spot" and Artemus
chirped up:
sect out TIE bills for the lecture!
See MI. Clawson and arrange for the
date. The show is safe enough, now
we've got on an oyster basis. MARX

to me that they were everywhere,

They hauled voters to the polls, they
had watchers and helpers at the polls
and they were what has been called

declare I have never seen at any cleo
