one labeled Tem^ Brew and the other
with no label, were found on tap. An
other half keg with no label, and full,
was taken also.
Charles Hardesty's place at 10
South Third street, was searched by
Officers Wilson and Tlgue. One-half
barrel, with a Presto label on it, was
found on tap. Nothing else was dis
covered.
One-half barrel labeled Presto, on

Three half barrels were taken at
the place of Jerry Stack, 1100 Main.
All were labeled Presto. One was on
tap and the other two were in the ice
box.
Chief of Police Hennemann bas

places were raided, to appear In ten
days at Justice of the Peace Burrows'

raid. The matter is being takep up
with County Attorney McManus.
May File Informations.
On the chemical analysis, which is
being made by a local druggist, rests
whether or not informations will be
filed against the owners of the goods.
If Presto or Temp Brew are found
in the barrels confiscated, then noth
ing can be done. If the analysis re
veals beer In any of the kegs, then
the owners pf these will have informa
tions filed against them for illegal
sale of liquor. The procedure in these
cases will be slightly different than
In those of tbe alleged bootleggers,
arrested in the previous raids, for the
places raided are listed as soft drink
establishments, and according to the
interpretation of Chief Hennmann, the
finding of beer at any of them is evi
dence of an illegal sale of liquor.
the deed proved valueless. The stock
was in turn sold by the defendants,
he claims.
The complaint was filed with the
states uttorney some weeks ago, but
It was necessary to obtain requisition
par»ci before the two men could be
taken from Illinois to this county for
trial. The papers were secured
through a request from Governor
Clarke of Iowa to Governor E. F.
Dunne of Illinois. Deputy Sheriff
Watkins went to Springfield after the
papers and returning to Carthage
found that the two men were in that
city. He arrested them and brought
them to Fort Madison.
Treuthart is non-comlttal on the
matter while Merrill insists some
what emphatically that he had noth
ing to do with tbe alleged transaction.
The two men conduct a store at
Stillwell and one at Carthage and
their arrest created much interest in
Carthage. Both of the men deny any
intent to swindle Marshall.
LOSE $100,000
IN AUTO FEES
Auto
Highway
Promoter Says Each
,nL. Iowa County is Losing $1,000
||ft Yearly.
Each county in Iowa would have
a thousand dollars more of the motor
vehicle fund today to spend for high
way improvement, if the violators of
the motor vehicle license law were
brought to justice and made to pay
into this fund, what is lawfully due
That is the declaration of Robert
N. Carson of Iowa City, good roads
enthusiast and auto highway promot
er, who goes on to explain:
"There are at least 10,000 motor
cars, including motor trucks that will
operate at a speed of over 12 miles
per hour which are 'getting by' with
out paying the license fee.
"Let us see what this amounts to
in dollars and cents. Ten thousand
cars at approximately $10 license
each, would total $100,000.
"How is the law being violated? By
a number of owners of cars who have
not renewed their 1916 license. By a
large percentage of cars carrying
dealers numbers—many of these car
rying but one tag, either front or
rear. By many cars carrying but one
license number either rear or front
and handing tbe other number to
some other car owner. Making one
license number cover two cars. By
Borne of the taxi cabs carrying a
dealers' number. By any number of
fears carrying no number either front
or rear.
"The state's attorneys office say
they are too busy with other matters
to check up these violators. They say
it is the duty of county attorneys to
see to all violations. The county at
torney passes you along with some
other indifferent excuse, and there
you are. ,»
"Some of those who make the
strongest complaints about poor
roads are those who have not paid up
their motor license or are dodging
the law in some of the aforesaid
ways. Here is approximately $100,000
that should be in the motor vehicle
fund, that is not there."
Wherefore Mr. Carson asks the
pertinent question:
A
"Who is going to see to it that all
oar owners are treated equal with re
gard to collection of motor car
taxes?"

Soda Fountains
Are Busy Placet
These Hot Days
Z-z-z-z-t!
Lap-lap—Gurgle-gurgle—Ah-b-h-h!
Nope. It isn't a wireless and the
moan of the waves on the beach. This
is not a moving picture scenario of a
ship in distress. It's a picture of
thirsty Keokuk this sizzling weather,
stranded on the bar.
Because of the unprecedented de
mand for lemons since the heat wave
started, the price has advanced from
twenty to thirty cents a dozen within
the last month, an advance of 33 1-3
per cent, according to a leading groc
ery house.
And the soda fountains!
The sizz of the soda, the clank of
the glasses slapped down on the moist
counter can be heard until well onto
midnight.
"What'U you have?" ..,
and
"Now lemme pay for it. This is my
treat," are getting to be regular, bro
mides.
Good old-fashioned lemonade and
limeade and chocolate ice cream
"sodle" are the rocks of refuge to
which Keokuk bas come back in this
trying period. Last summer, say, the
soda fountain men, people were in
clined to try the new drinkB and fancy
sundaes, but this year, when a man
has almost reached his limit of en
durance, his collar wilted, his temper
twisted, he sinks down on a spindly
legged stool beneath a revolving fan
and gasps: "Lemonade."
The women still cling to the fancy
sundaes and ices, iced teas and iced
coffees. But the man who patronizes
a soft drink store takes his lemonade
or limeade, coco cola, root beer and
his chocolate ice cream soda. Ginger
ale is quite a favorite, too.
"Gee," said a white-aproned clerk,
"I feel like a merry-go-round. For the
past three weeks I've been whirling
between that counter lined with
weary, parched faces and the spigots
of this fountain.
"I dream about chocolate elephants
arid maple mousse rabbits every
night."

Be Careful in Using
Soap on Your Hair
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali, which is very
injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes
the hair brittle
The best thing to use is just plain mul
sified cocoanut oil, for it is pure and
entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and
beats the most expensive soaps or any
thing else all to pieces. You can get
this at any drug store, and a few ounces
will_ last the whole family for months.
Simply_ moisten the hair with water
and nib it in, about a teaspoonful is all
that is required. It makes an abundance
of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thor
oughly, and rinses out easily. The hair
Iries quickly and evenly, and is soft,
resh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy, and
asy to handle. Besides, it loosens and

SPEAKING OF THE WEATHER.
When it's hot and still a heating—•
Everything a sizzling stew—
Then some fellow's sure to ask you.
Is it hot enough for you?"
Tho' the mercury's one "hundred—
Or perhaps one hundred two—
Still this chap delights to ask you
"Is it hot enough, for you?"
Every day he asks this question—
Information's what he wants—
But at length it seems to jar us
And his question rather taunts.
Then it is we'd like to send him
Wihere the stokers stoke their fires
There to talk about the weather
As he very much perspires.
Send him to the baker's oven
Where are baked dyspepsia pies
Then no doubt he'll get his answer
As lie sizzles—'bakes*—and fries.
Still it seems we all are guilty—
Anyhow there are but few
Who omit the foolish question,
'•'It it hbt enough for you?"
