Tongaline Is a result of the
highest discoveriesi in pharmaceuti-
cal science. For twenty years it
has cured the diseases for which it
is specific. 1t has received the
highest endorsement from physi-
clans. 1t has proved a blessing in
the hands of sufferers themselves.
1t is harmless in its nature, sure In
its action, and its use is followed by
no unpleasant or dangerous results
such as follow many of the treat
ments prescribed for rheumatism.
Take Tongaline as a preventive
on the first indication of rheumatic
pains, rheumatic fever, neuralgia
pains Or headache. 1t viii prevent
thethreateneda attack andremovethe
poisons from the system before the
disease becomes chronic and stub
born. The ingredients of Tongaline
act harmoniously on all the organs
of elimination. the kidneys, liver,
bowels and skin, SO that the whole
body is regenerated and purified.

Relieves and Cures
TongaIlne relieves pain quickly.

Tongaline relieves pain quickly.
The pain of rheumatism, govt, neu-
ralgia and similar diseases is acute
and often terrible. The first step
toward a cure is to remove this
agony. Two or three doses of
To1galine in quick succession take
away the pain. But Tongaline
does not stop there as ordinary
lotions and liniments do. 1t deals
with the poisons which cause the
disease, and whether they be uric
acid, sodium urate, or disease
germs, Tongaline causes themsto
be expelled from the body by the
Simultaneous action of the liver,
kidneys, bowels and skin.
To find relief from their agony
many unfortunates have been driven
to use opium or morphine. Tonga
line contains neither opium or NOR
phine. For the relief of severe
headache 1t is far superior to the
innumerable combinations of ace
tanylid sold as headache cures"

BACK TO THE CITY,.
Children at the ST. Mary's Summer
Home Return to Their Homes
After the Long Outing.
YEAR WAS A SUCCESSFUL. ONE
More Than Sixty Children Have Reen
Cared for at the Home Under the
Best of Circumstances.

Pier cottage, the summer home for
children under the auspices OF the Sis
tiers OF st. Mary, closed this morning
and the morning trains carried back to
Chicago sixty children after their long
summer holiday to return again to
their homes in the lowly parts of Chi
cage. The outing has been a great
one tor the children and during the
four months they have been in Keno
sha under the care of the Sisters they
have had the best of tutoring, and
even though the winter may find them
back in homes of squallor, they will
always be able to look back to the
happy days spent on the shores of the
lake under the tutelage of the Sisters
of st. Mary.
This has been the most successful
year in the history of the Home. Dur
ing the summer the Sisters have had
every room in the little dor1nitory
filled and the children have been better
cared for than ever before. Liberal
gifts of clothing and provisions have
been received from all parts of the
state. For several years the home was
entirely supported by Kenosha people,
bnt this year other cities in all parts
of the state have taken up the good
work and assisted in keeping the little
ones picked from the s1ums of the
great city.
On account of the large number of
children seeking the care of the Sisters
in the summer the home is proving all
too small for their use and before an
other year arrives the Sisters will
make an effort to have another build
ing erected for the use of the little
waits. 1t is the plan to have build
ing large enough to be used as a
school room as we'll as dormitories and
dining rooms. Some little money has
already been generously given, but
much more will have to be raised be-
fore the plans of the managers of the
home can be realized. Most of the
children who have been at the home
during the summer will go to the home
of the Sisters on Washington Boule-
ward in Chicago, but many of them
will return to their old haunts in the
s1ums of the city to await the time
WACh lAAC NdOdlAOn SOdSOu VIII COI1C
again and they will be permitted to
come to Kenosha.
In leaving the city the Sisters asked
that thanks be expressed to the good
people of Southern Wisconsin, and es-
pecia11y in Kenosha, for the many
gifts sent to the home during the sea-
son just closed. In the near future the
Sisters will publish little booklet, in
which the needs of the home will be
set forth and the names of those help
ing in the work will be published.

Young Republicans Turn Out In Full
Force to Organize a Marching
Club Friday Evening.
MANY SIGN MUSTER ROLL.
over Hundred of the Young Men of the
City Have Already Joined the Club
and More TO Follow

Notwithstanding the inc1emency of
the weather a great crowd of the young
Republicans of the city gathered at
the Republican headquarters, Friday
evening for the purpose of organizing
marching club for work in the
campaign. It was a cosmopolitan
crowd that gathered, all classes of
people being represented. There were
1aboring men and capitalists, and
among the long list Of signers of the
muster roll was one co1ored boy.
The meeting was very enthusiastic
one. and the young men showed that
they were all in line and ready to
work for the support of the Repub1i-
can ticket insKenosha county. Many
enthusiastic speeches were made and
solid Republican sentiments were
wildly cheered. MThere were not only
young men present, but men of the
true blue Republicans we'll along in
middle life appeared and signi6ed their
intention of afiixing their names to
the muster roll. After a Republican
good time the meeting was called to
order by Johnson Jackson, who was
selected as chairman, and Rouse Har-
rison was named as secretary of the
club.
The work of organization was not
completed at the meeting as a com
n1ittee of temporary organization, con-
sisting of Tom Graves, Ray Hurd and
Ernest Timme, reported that the
organization be left to committee to

report on next Monday evening.
On this committee Chairman Jack
son appointed John H. Keh1or, Benja-
min O. Sturgis and Tom Graves. The
committee will at once start to work
and draw up constitution and bylaws
and select list of officers to be voted
on at the next meeting of the club, to
be held on Monday. After the com
mittee on permanent organization and
officers had been selected, the club
spent some time discussing uniforms.
The Rough Rider uniform was a
favorite with ali, and it is probable
that such a uniform will be adopted.
The uniforms will be of regulation
order and will be purchased in such
large lots that the expense to the club
members will be considcrab bic less than
$500.
At the close o. the discussion in re-
gard to the uniforms the chair APP
pointed a committee consisting of J..
M. Keh1or, Carl Piske and Julius
FRANKIE, to have charge of this part of
the equipment of the club. This COM
mittee is in Chicago, today, and they
will make their report to the club at
the meeting on Monday evening.
After the business had been trans
acted the club was pleasantly enter
tanned by number Of vocal solos by
J. Keck Wheeler and Charles Dodge,
which were greatly enjoyed.
The muster roll of the club will be
left at the headquarters and all the
young men of the city are urged to
sign it at their earliest convenience.
