The ''Child's Welfare" moveme nt has
challenged the attention of thoughtful
people everywhere. Mothers are ma
tural supporters, and will find in Foley' s
Honey and Tar Compound a most yalu-
able aid. Coughs and colds that un-
checked lead to Group, bronchitis and
pneumonia yield quickly to the healing
and soothing qualities of Foley's Honey
and Tar Compound. o. E. Davis.

Simple Mixture Helps
VirOqua People

That simple remedies are best has

that many Viroqua people are receiving
QUICK benefit from simple b1ckthorn
bark, glycerine, etc, as mixed in Adler
i-ka, the German appendicitis remedy.
A SINGLE DOSE helps sour stomach,

INSTANTLY because this simple mix
ture antiseptieizes the digestive or

THE SQUARE DEAL" WILL WIN
A Motto That Any and Every Town
May Embrace

The CENSOR heartily endorses the
sentiment below. Every town should
covet the reputation of being the place
in which everybody is given a square
deal. Every business man should strive
to give his town the name, THE
Square Town" Let it be known far
and near that at all times and under
all conditions every person having bust
ness relations Of any kind OF character
will be given square deal, and the
people will flock here as they have
never done before. Be just as anxious
for the reputation of your home town
as you would for that of your own place
OF business or your own home. THE
Square Deal Town" viii win and moth

A. T. Jordan, Bear Greek: Just
thirty-seven years ago / bought my
first piece of land, consisting of 100
acres, costing 1886, including taxes.
With horse and cutter. my father, Jas.

the certificates were all right. We
stopped at the Matchet hotel, with John
Matchet as proprietor; next day drove
to Viroqua, meeting loads of grain and
dressed pork. After leaving Melvina
we soon had to cross farms on account
of snow blockades. There was no rail-
road, no Cashton or Westby. We pas.

Thos. B., was sheriff.
Harvey NJ. Allen, Webster: at was
in 1854 that we came to Vernon county.
My father was afterwards offered the
quarter section of land known as the
Rusk place on the hill north of Viroqua,
now owned by G. w. Moore, for $500.
There was few acres broke on the
place, had house and stable. The farm
was then owned by Mr.. Wright, an
early settler. Every acre of that claim
is today worth not less than $50. While
advances have not been so pronounced
all over the county, there is a wonder

confidence people have in this section

FRENcHMEN THOUGHT IT JOKE
Ambassador Jusserand's Request tor
an Outdoor Sleeping Porch NOT
Taken Seriously at Home.

The French government has obtain
ed a permit, blueprints and full specl-
dcations for fine new embassy build
Ing here In Washington. AS French
architects rank among the best in the
world, the building will probably be
an attractive structure, with hard
wood floors, modern plumbing, glass
ioorknobs and decorated to suit.
But j. ]. Jusserand, the French am
bassRdor, isn't certain whether the
place is going to be anything much
Or not. In some respects the houses
that are shown in the daily papers suit
him much better, and he has made
bold TO tell the French government
SO.
Inasmuch as Jusserand is going TO
live in the place, his government as
sumed. quite logically, that he and his
wife would have some little curiosity
to see the plans and note the loca.
tons OF closets and bathrooms. So
they sent him biueprints showing the
front, side and rear elevations and the
interior arrangements.
Jusserand promptly wrote back to
his government saying he wished,
while they were about II, that they
would build house with few OF the
more modern conyeniences. For e1-
ample. he pointed out no American
thinks OF building a house nowadays
without an outdoor sleeping porch ana
also cute little screened porch
where they could serve afternoon tea.
Jusserand's letter caused much con-
sternation in his native land. The
French officials couldn't figure out
why few years residence in Amer
ics should give a'high born citizen so
many barbarous notions about archi-
lecture. After several weeks they an.
swered his sleeping posch commuuica-
ton and told him they enjoyed his lit
tie joke.
"Of course, you cannot be serious,
they said, in wishing TO sleep public
ly. The outdoor porch might be very
nice for an American hunting cabin
with its picturesque log finish, but for
an embassy building located in the
heart Of city. any arrangement for
one to sleep out on the porch would
no doubt excite much funny comment.
Furthermore, we do not know of any
recognized school Of architecture that
provides for special porch to sleep
on"
Jusserand threw up his hands with
a despairing gesture on receipt OF the
letter. asked for one more window in
the front bedroom, and let IL go at
that.

Spring fashions for little maids SUI
preserve the childish simplicity ad

there is a tailored piainness abou'
most of the little gowns. these de-
pending upon novel yokes or handsome
collars for dressiness, or on the use OF
two contrasting materials.
In point OF style, the frock with
long.waisted bodice and short, plated

children from six up to twelve. In the
palmer instances these have solid
yokes OF silk or of the contrasting ma
terial, but the DRESSER trock almost
invariably shows thin white suimpe'
provision being made for this in the
cut of the bodice neck. Numbers OF
GOWNS in the more solid wash fabrics
have shields and collars OF white
pioue or plain linen, and frequent use
is made Of white for trimming every
species Of tub material.
The little Sunday-go-to-meeting or
afternoon frocks, while preserving the
tailored stamp yet permit, OF course,
considerably more trimming than do
The wash frocks, although the garni-
lures are all on fat order. The sur
