Cuti Down tnt Attendance on the

Have Sarpaaaed Last Year I.lttle
Damage Dost to the
Exhibits.
The sixth annual street fair and carnival
came to a close Saturday night, with the
attendance somewhat diminished, owing to
he rain. Despite the heasy storm, shortly
before 6 o'clock, and Indications of more
rain during the night, over 5, OX) people
paased the gates last night. At : o'clock
the rain sent many home, but the more
venturesome remained to sea the end of
the week's festivities.
At Treasurer Van Brunt's office last
night It was stated that the total at
tendance for the we3k woull probably fall
short about l.ftuv of last year. But for the
rain It Is believed the attendance last night
would have reached the 10,OT mark, and
then laat year's record would have been
beaten.
The heavy rain ar.d wina in the early
part of the evening caused many to close
their booths lu a hurry and but little dam
age was done to the exhibits. Two pianos
used In the shows were badly aoaked. It
was said, but this was practically all the
damage.
The Street Fair and Carnival company,
under whose auspices the street fair has
been given the last four years, announced
yesterday that this would be the last
carnival given under its management. The
annual street fair and carnival has, how
ever, apparently become such an estab
lished institution that It is likely some
fraternal organization or other body will
tako hold and see to It that Council
Bluffs has Its annual festivities next year.

they never prfss a day without using It.
While I waa there I used the food regu

urged me to try Grape-Nuts soaked In a
little warm milk.
"Well. It worked like a charm and she
began taking It regularly and Improvement

Dr. Licbig, the famous German Chemist, says that
beer is "liquid bread." By this he means that beer
is a food full of life-giving, health-sustaining qualities.
The value of beer as a food is becoming well
known, and it is now used by many who have
hitherto looked upon it as a beverage only.

is the most nourishing of all beers because it contains every
particle of the healthful, wholesome nutriment of the malt and
all the tonic properties of the hops from which it is made.
The Pabst Eight-Day Malting Process follows nature by
slowly transforming the substance of the barley into pure,
nutritious food. The quality of the materials used and the Pabst
method of brewing make Pabst Blue Ribbon not only a pure
beer, but a healthful, tissue-building, muscle-building, life-giving,

Good bye, old press. I bid you go.
Though parting with you brings regret
But you are stiff and worn and slow.

And when your voice waa eoft and low.

But that waa twenty years ago.
The years have brought you keen distress.
You groan and rattle when you run.
But all your wounda I frank confess
Were In most loyal service won.

Will push me out with little grace.
