FORD'S SUBMARINE.
What the Automobile Man Has to Say
About the Little Terror.

Henry Ford, the automobile manu-
facturer, who is going to New York
Sunday night preliminary to a con-
ference with Secretary Daniels, will
submit to the latter plan for a new
submarine one-fourth the size of the
average submarine, far more destruc-
tive and, in Mr.. Ford's opinion, likely
to hasten world peace.
The new submarine would be equip
ped with a gasoline motor only one
| fourth the size of those now in use
| and far less expensive.
This is what Mr.. Ford has to say
| about the new submarine:
at would be no trick at all to pro-
duce submarine equipped with
gasoline engine for its entire motive
power which could sail anywhere un-
der the sea carrying pill at the end
of pole powerful enough to blow the
mightiest battleship ever built into
wreck of junk. 1 am going to tell
Secretary Daniel so when see him in
Washington mex tweek.
"The new submarine would be one
fourth the size of the present subma-
hAhS aiu "ouio DC dDlc W pTOp6l 1CSSI
and guide itself up and down to the
right and to left, by its own power.
Electric storage batteries are unnec-
essary.
"And the best of all, these subma-
rines can be built at such slight cost
that all the incentive for greedy ar
mament makers will be taken away
from them. They will cost only a
fraction of what the present subma-
rines cost and only a fraction of one
per cent Of the $15, 5,009TvUr dfeNf~
noughts which they will be able to
blow to pieces.
eff the public is interested enough,
we may arrange to give demonstra-
| tion of this new machine some time
in the near future. I believe that edu-
cation will be the greatest factor in
bringing about universal peace, but
this new submarine is likely, by the
very terror it inspires, to hasten world
peace"

We predicted a good price for cot
ton, even when others were of a
different opinion, and our prediction
has come true. 1t is now right around
~ cents. In our humble judgment if
the farmers of Union county can get
- cents or more for cotton it will be
good time to make killing" Ger
tainly if you owe money, if you will
get real relief at II cents, it will be a
good time to sell. True, the price may
90 higher-thcn again, it may go very
much lower. If the cotton crop of
Union county were sold at II cents
1t could work wonders in this county,
and would put the whole county in
very fair shap" Somehow, we cannot
escape the feeling that "a bird in the
hand is worth two in the bush"

For years we have heard complaints
that Union did not pay as much for
cotton as did other markets. The re-

we decided that the way to prove or
disprove the charge was to get quo
tations on cotton from the various sec

SOCIAL EVENTS AT BLAIRS.

An enjoyable event of the week was
the farewell moonlight picnic on Tues

the light of the full moon, the call
for lunch was given, which was served
on the spacious veranda at the home
of Mr.. ana Mrs. l.. S. Henderson,

SALTS IF BACKACHY
AND KIDNEYS HURT
Drink lots of water and stop eating
meat for while if your Bladder
troubles you

When you wake up with backache and
dull misery in the kidney region it gem
orally means you have been eating too
much meat, says q well-known authority.
Meat forms uric acid which overworks
the kidneys in their effort to filter it
from the blood and they become sort of
paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels; re-
moving all the body's urinous waste,
else you have backache, sick headache,
dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue
is coated, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twinges. The urine
is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often
get sore, water scalds and you are obliged
to seek relief two or three times during
the night.
Either consult o good, reliable physi-
clan at once or get from your pharmacist
about four ounces of Jad Salts; take
q tablespoonful in glass of water
before breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
clean and stimulate sluggish Kidneys
also to neutralize acids in the urine so it
no longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is a life saver for regular
meat caters. It is inexpensive, cannot
injure and makes delightful, efEer-
vc3cont lithia water drink.

QUIT YOUR KNOCKING

Put the hammer in the locker;
Hide the sounding board likewise;
Anyone can be a knOcker;
Anyone can criticise
Cultivate q manner winning,
Though it hurts your face to smile
And seems awkward in beginning;
Be a booster for a while.
Let the blacksmith do the pounding;
That's the way he draws his pay,
You don't get a cent for bounding
Saint and sinner, night and day.
Just for solid satisfaction
Drop a kind word in the slot,
And III warrant you'll get action
On your effort on the spot.
Kindness every time beats kicking;
Mirth is better than a froWn;
Do not waste your time in picking
Flaws with brothers who are down.
And it isn't so distressing
If you give a little boost
To the man the fates are pressing
When the chicks come home to rO0s

MAKE WISCONSIN A
LEASURE SEEKING

PLEASURE oEENtING - ~ 4 E
Nothing will spread the fame Of
Wisconsin as a state of prosperity
and pleausro mere than a scimula-
ton of automobile touring. With
this in view the Wisconsin Advance
ment association is having several
through routes of good highways
marked through the state, each with
it's distinctive sign, SO that the tour
list may travel them from one end
OF the state to another without ask
ing a question or entertaining a
doubt
The tiresome feature Of touring is
the problem of finding the road and
keeping on it. Road corner signs
neip, but they are too often conspic-
uous for their absence and when
ound the tourist usually has to stop
10 consult them. With a route for
perhaps several hundred miles carry
ing the same sign, and with the
letters ''R" or 81" conspicuous be-
fore all turns, the driver merely
needs to keep going, fully assured
that he is on the right road. Such
is the condition it is desired to have
in Wisconsin.
Some of the counties propose not
only to mark these through routes,
but with other signs to mark all the
roads within their borders that con
meet cities and villages. Such mark
ing is cheaper than corner signs and
will be Of more service to all-es-
pecially to the tourist.

British Army Evacuates Wisconsin
One Hundred Years Ago

One Hundred Years Ago
One hundred years ago, in the
spring Of 1915, the last foreign foot
that has been on Wisconsin soil beat
a retreat out of the state. It was
the trOublous period Of the war OF
1872. The British, aided by a large
band of Indians, had captured the
important post of Prairie du CHEN in
the summer Of 1914. When peace
was declared at Client, however, a
few months later all Of the cap
tured Northwestern posts were re
turned to the United States. The
intelligence Of the signing of the
treaty did not penetrate to far-aWay
Wisconsin until late in May, 1915,
having been five months on the way
1t placed the British commander at
Prairie du CHEN in an embarrassing
position. He had made the usual
sweeping promises to his Indian al
lies to induce them to take up arms,
W iAASII IiE ItIbto iiO " ISo41Ci -
ing them to the mercy Of the en-
ragged Americans. 1t was not unlike
ly that in their disappointment they
would rise up against their former
friends and massacre them. Under
these conditions the British com
mander, without awaiting the arrival
Of the American soldiers, to whom
he was to surrender the post, hastily
hauled down his flag, and r9treated
to Canada. Up the Wisconsin river
to Portage, thence across to the
Fox, and via Green Bay to 1Iackinac
he hurried, ever fearful lest the say
ages be at his heels. The papers re-
lating to the retreat have been
printed in Volume XII of the Wis
consin Historical Collections.

Many remedies are recommended
for diseases Of the nervous system
that fail to produce results because
they do not reach the seat of the
trouble. DR.. Miles Ncrvine has

many times that it is unnecessary
to make claims for it. You can
