Jack JOhnsOn's Car

Jack JohnsOn's racing car. which
two years ago was the talk of the coun
try, has been purchased by d. C. Ros-
encrans of the Old Sanitarium at
Prairie du Chen, Wis. This monster
racing car was built by the Thomas
Flyer Co. The solid aluminium body
was cast in one piece in England, no
manufacturer in this country being
able to make it at the time It's me-
chanism has six-cylinder engine,
each of the cylinders being 5zs :
inches which have a capacity of 105
horsepower and will seAd the machine
over the ground at speed of 80 miles
an hour. All the parts of this wonder
full speed demon were especially made
for Jack johnson and cost $4,000.
However. the reckless career run by
Johnson in connection with his famous
restaurant in Chicago brought about
the loss of his rights in this country
as well as his wonderful machine
which was attached for a debt BY the
Heileman Brewing Company of La
Crosse.

Wait For Her, Boys!

The girl who is unkind to her mother
isn't worth a tinkcr's dog-gone. This
isn't written in any part of the Bible,

NO WAR TAX ON
CANADIAN LANDS
Untruthful Reports Circulated by
Interested Parties.

Defaming a neighbor at the expense
of the truth does not help those who are
guilty Of the practice, and II may be
said that those spreading false re-
ports about Canadian lands, in the
hope that they may secure customers
for their own, will certainly fail Of
their purpose. False statements so
maliciously circulated will sooner or
later be disproved. And, as in the
case of the lands of Western Canada,
the fertility of which is now so well
known to people of every state in the
United States, the folly of this work
shows an exceeding short sighted
ness on the part of those guilty Of the
practice.
The present war has given some Of
these people the opportunity to exer.
else their art, but in doing it they are
only arousing the curiosity of those
who read the statements and trifling
investigation will only reveal their I'M
truthfulness.
A very foolish statement has re.
Gently appeared in a number Of pa
pers, reading in part as follows:-
1T is believed that as a result OF the
war tax on land imposed by the Cana
dian Government a number of former
Dakota|farmers who went to the Brit
lsh Northwest will be compelled to re-
turn to the United States. Informa-
ton has been received that the tax
will amount to about $500 for each
farm of 100 acres, which In the case
OF many Of the former residents of the
two Dakotas would practically amount
to confiscation."
TIC show that the public has doubt
ed, hundreds of inquiries have been
made the Government at Ottawa,
Canada, only to bring out the most en-
phatic denial. A full-fedged lie of this
kind has, Of course, only short life,
and will tell in the end against those
who forge it and spread 1t, but, as a
Winnipeg paper points out, it is most
complimentary to the agricultural pos
sibilities of Western Canada to find
that rival farming propositions need
audacious mendacity OF this descrip-
ton to help them.
What is the truth? The Saskatche-
wan Government has authorized levy
of $40 per quarter section on unculti.
waited lands owned by non-residents
The Alberta Government has imposed
Provincial tax of 10 mills on the as.
sessed value of all uncultivated lands
There are some special applications OF
these taxes, but the main provisions
are as above. Those vacant lands
held by non-residents in Western Can.
ada form a grave problem. They are
making for poor communities, poor
schools and poor social and economic
conditions generally. BY having them
cultivated the owners as well as the
districts in which they are located
will benefit alike. 1t is for this reason
that the Government has recently
asked the cooperation of the non.resi.
dents. The high price of grain for
some years to come, and the general
splendid character of Western Canada
land will make the question well
worth Observation-Disclosures.

SOME HARD KNOCKS
Woman Gets Rid of Coffee Habit

The injurious action of coffee on the
hearts Of many persons is well known
by physicians to be caused by caffeine.
This is the drug found by chemists in
coffee and tea.
A woman suffered long time with
severe heart trouble and finally her
doctor told her she must give up cot
fee, as that was the principal cause Of
the trouble. She writes:
my heart was so weak it could not
do its work properly. My husband
would sometimes have to carry me
from the table, and 1t would seem that
would never breathe again.
"The doctor told me that coffee was
causing the weakness Of my heart. He
said 1 must stop it, but 1t seemed /
could not give it up until was down

For eleven weeks I lay there and
suffered. Finally husband brought

and started new and right. Slowly

aches, nor those spells with weak
heart. We know it is Postum that
helped me. The DR.. said the other
