WHAT CATARRH IS

1t has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates a general weakness
of the body; and local treatments iii
the form Of Snuffs and vapors do little,
if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat its
cause by enriching your blood with the
oil-food in SCOTS Emulsion which Is
medicinal food and building-tonic, free
from alcohol or any harmful drugs. Tryit.

Operation Hats wedding.

The surgeons knife instead of the
ministers marriage ceremony was
the unwelcome portion melted out TO
Raymond Milbrath on Thursday of
last week.
Mr. Milbrath came to Spring Grove
Wednesday to claim as his bride Miss
Bessie Peterson, and arrangements
were complete for the wedding to
take place Thursday at Caledonia,
the couple expecting to go there
Thursday morning.
During the night, however, Mr..
Miibrath was taken sick and it was
found that an oneration for appendi-
citis was necessary. The operation
was performed Thursday by Doctors
Nelson and Holland.
The latest reports are that Mr..
Milbrath is doing well, and it is hop
ed that the interrupted wedding will
take place in short time.-Spring

MY THANKSGIVING.

A time to sop and drink deep,
God-given breath
OF flushing thankfulness for all
have or am,
And then to breathe it out again, a
ten fold prayer
To Him who's given to me all the
gifts of joy
Ny life contains-my church, my
work, my daily bread,
Ny fields, my home, my children and
my family,
Things which in daily mute uncon-
scious gratitude
We love and all indeed are thankful
for, and yet
which we all take and cherish as our
very own,
Forgetting all the while they're His
to portion us
As we so meagerly and surely unde-
serve.
A time to ponder this-to wonder
that He is
So kind; failing to answer this, to
send a prayer
As big as | am big enough to send
to Him
Who gave it all to me That's my
Thanksgiving.

ROMANCE GIVES HIM RICHES.
Young Farm Hand in Page County
Gains Rewards. Has Promise
Promise of Bride and "a
160-Acre Farm.

Shenandoah, Ia, Nov. 22.-M. J.
WEIGH, or Mike as they call him, an
employe at Ernest Fischer's farm
east of Shenandoah finds himself
transformed from an ordinary farm
hand to well fixed young farmer,
as the result of romance up-to-date,
in which he has the promise of a
bride and an 160-acre farm.
Previous to Oct. he was employ
ed by William S. Segelka, wealthy
farmer near Sutherland, Ia. Young
WEIGH fell in love with Ella, the
farmers pretty daughter and the af-
fection was returned. But fearing
parental displeasure the young man
skipped out about Oct. and came
to Shenandoah where he secured
employment on the farm Of Ernest
Fischer. He proved good hand and
seemed like an industrio S, agree
able and intelligent young man.
Wednesday Mr.. Segelka and two
daughters arrived here on their way
to Excelsior Springs, Mo-, where the
older daughter will take treatment
for rheumatism. Learning that Mr..
WEIGH was employed here the father
and daughters drove out to the Fis-
cher farm and found the young man
and brought him to town and made
arrangements for wedding.
The young mans parents live at
Stanberry, Mo, and as he is under
age their consent was necessary for
the marriage. He telephoned them
and they came and gave their con-
sent. The young couple apparently
are very happy and Father Segelka
who has $50 acres of land has prom
ised to set them up in housekeeping
on a fine 160-acre farm.

THE HAZARDS OF FOOTBALL.
One Sees Little About the Accidents
This Year.

Every season at this time of year
one used to read much about the
perils of football. There was a
Choir of attack on the slaughter of
our college and High school inno-
cents. The game was denounced as
merely beefy and brutal
One scarcely sees line of that
tbs fall Yet there are always
about the usual number of football
acc ldents. In spite of attempts to
open up the play, it will always be
a game for strong boys, capable of
giving and taking hard knocks.
Perhaps the European war has
made us Indifferent to the chances
of death and accident lying all
around us. With thousands dying
daily in the trenches, the sacrifice of
a few tacklers and quarterbacks
seems mere incident. The init
mate circle of friends may be indig-
nant. but no popular feeling is arous-
ed.
The long story Of automobile acct
dents every day may be a factor.
With Father and Mother doing 40
miles an hour out on the motor road,
they can't say much about the son
who risks having his spine snapped
by rough tackle.
Swimming causes hundred times
more fatalities than football But
no one ever started a crusade against
water sports.
The American people are a ma
ton of chance takers. They hate
to quit on anything on which their
heart becomes set, and only in their
cooler moments do they weigh chan
ees. They dislike to admit in pub
nc that they are afraid Of anything.
They would live just as happily if
they formed the daily habit of TAX
ing more careful precautions. Swim
ming, by beginners at least, could be
protected by having regular provi-
sion of life guards. The motor roads
could be made comparatively safe by
a drastic enforcement of existing
laws. Football might be remodeled
into the game as played in England.
where accidents are comparatively
few.
But efforts for such precautions
are contrary to the national tenn
permanent. People who never had !
serious accident are sustained by
the cheerful optimism that nothing
ever will happen.

SHOOK ISLAND IS
 AGAIN SINKING

PONTIAC, Mich, Dec. 3-SpoolS Island, in Echo Lake, is again dis appearing. Usually this island comes to the surface each summer in June and continues rising until August, when it is about two feet or more out of the water and is covered with dropping vines, grass and foliage. By the time ice forms, the island has entirely disappeared so that the fishermen fish through the ice over the spot where the island was during the summer.
 This island consists of peat and bog, which burn readily when dried In the summer, stumps come ur from under the island six or eight feet over night, raising the vines until the creepers hang in festoons Large pieces of the island break a. way at times and float around the lake looking like huge boulders.
 Echo Lake is near Lakeville, nine miles north. of Rochester and si, miles east of Oxford

GERMAN ARMY DESERTER IS REFUSED ADDMISION INTO
 COUNTRY

NEW YORK, Dec. 3-Heinie Schultz, who says he is a desert CT from the German army, was ord cred excluded from the United States by special board of inquiry at Ellis Island today. Owing, how ever, to the fact that if he return ed to Europe. at present. he would be imprisoned by the British, he was ordered informed on Ellis Isl and until the end of the war.
 Schultz arrived as a stowaway CT the Holland-American liner Noord- erdyke yesterday. He said he fought at Liege, Antwerp and the battle of the Marne, and that in the latter battle most of the men in the division to which he was at- tached were killed
 After he received word that his father and brother had been killed fighting he said he deserted, making his way through Belgium and across the Dutch border. At Lille, where he remained in hiding two months he was sheltered by a French girl.
