Quors weaken the body, and that a
man or woman with a weak body can
not do .lc best work or get the most
fun and pleasure out of life. The sec
ond reason given is that there is a
national organization called the Anti
Saloon League which has men and
women in all parts of the country who
are working every day in the year
to teach the people and show them
that they are wasting their health and
money in buying and drinking intoXi-
eating liquors; and these same men
and women are also working to get the
State Legislatures and Congress to
pass Prohibition laws.
Boys. this is one of the big cues
ti1ns of the day Wen watch and
see what Congress does about the
Prohibition amendment to the Con-
stitution."

MASTER FEATS OF
THE RAILROAD WORLD

Six years ago the country rang
with the accomplishment of the most
brilliant and efficient transcontinen-
tai railroad building of history.
This year the eyes of the nation
are turned to an even more notable
achievement-the placing of 40 miles
of main line across the Continental
Divide under electrical operation.
Both achievements are work of the
same railway-it was the Chicago, Mil
waukee & ST. Paul that set a new
record in railway building, by con-
structing in less than three years a
splendid steel highway across the
plains, mountains, uplands and val
legs that lie between the Missouri
River and Puget Sound. With series
of brilliant engineering triumphs this
new steel highway was laid directly
through the heart of the Rocky, Bitter
Root and Cascade Mountains.
The result is that the milwaukee,"
today is the shortest line to the Pa
cific North Coast, with lowest grades
and easiest curves, and leads directly
through the greatest extent of noun
tain scenery on the continent.
Again it is the Milwaukee, that
definitely ushers in the new era in
railroading- era Of the electric To-
connective. Already 1.-THE Olympian"
and "The Columbian" are being oper-
ated electrically over the first COM
pleted unit of 115 miles, and soon they
will be so operated over the entire
electrified district, extending from
Harlowton, Mont, to Avery, Idaho, a
distance of 440 miles
1t has always been the aim of this
railway to furnish service better than
the best obtainable elsewhere. Every
travel delight and comfort is yours if
you travel on the milwaukee," to the
Pacific North Coast.
For literature and full information,
apply to local ticket agent of this rail-
way.

THE STOCK SALE
At FAIR GROUNDS
G. f. REED OF KANSAS BUYS
FOR THE STATE AGRICUL-
TURAL COLLEGE.
One Heifer From the Jones Herd Sold
to Harvester Farms at Mayyllle
for S1,115.

One Of the prominent buyers OF the
country attending the HOlstein sale at
fair grounds was o. e. Reed of Kan
sas, a member of the faculty of the
Kansas Agricultural college.
Mr.. Reed and Ex-Governor Stubs
of that state were interested spectators
Of all that transpires at the sale, and
before returning to the special domain
of grasshoppers will no doubt take
away some fancy Wisconsin blooded
stock to add to former purchases from
this state.
Reed made visit to Watertown on
a former occasion and bought car
load Of Holsteins for the various state
farms, and his purchases have been
so satisfactory that he is making his
second visit to purchase Holsteins.
Mr. Reed is a practical cattle and
dairyman, and he believes from past
experiences that Wisconsin cattle are
as good as the best.
At the sale prices ranged high
which speaks volumes for the Hol-
STEMS breeders of this locality.
One of sales Thursday to attract
attention was the purchase of 2-year-
old heifer by the Harvester farm at
Mayville, from the Jones herd, the
consideration being $1,115. The animal
had pedigree which easily placed
her in the blue-blood aristrocracy OF
her kind, and the Mayville gentlemen
feel that they have secured a bar
gain.
The attendance at the sale was large
among the spectators being many OF
the most prominent women of this part
of the state who are interested in the
raising of fine Holsteins and in
dairying.

DANGERS OF DRAFT.

Drafts feel best when we are hot
and perspiring, just when they are
most dangerous and the result is Neu-
ralgia, Stiff Neck, Sore Muscles or
sometimes an attack of rheumatism.
In such cases apply Sloan's Liniment.
1t stimulates circulation to the sore
and painful part. The blood flows free
ly and in short time the stiffness and
pain leaves. Those suffering from
Neuralgia or Neuralgia Headache will
find one or two applications of Sloan's
Liniment will give grateful relief. The
agonizing pain gives way to ting
ling sensation of comfort and warmth
and quiet rest and sleep is possible.
Good for Neuritis too. Price Csc, at

POSTMASTER MOORE
TELLS OF GAINS
WatertOwn POstoffice Shows Advance
Over 1915 of S223.15, Which Is
1913 Per Cent. Increase.
ON FIRST-CL POSTAGE ONLY

Postmaster Moore has filed his re-
port for April, and the figures
show that of first-class postage only,
the Watertown office made gain over
April of 1915 of $23353, the total bust
ness being $2,531.95.
This increase is consistent with the
increase of recent months, which indi-
Gates a steady trend upward of bust
ness conditions.
One thing contributing to the in
creased receipts is the fact that mer-
chants are more literally patronizing
the mails than in the past.
Another factor is the Business
Mems association, which has sent out
a considerable volume of mail matter
in the past few weeks.
The increase in Watertown is 1913
per cent.
The increase in Chicago is 11.5 per
cent.
