BARADOO To HAVE
NEXT BOOSTER Trip
On LABOR DAY

The Baraboo Commercial associa-
ton is making arrangements for the
third annual booster trip to be taken
on Labor Day, September 4. These
trips have come to be an annual event
and are always looked forward to
with a great deal Of pleasure.
The trip this year will not be quite
as long as those taken previously, but
will be fully as enjoyable in every re-
spect. The route, as tentatively plan
ned, is from BarabOO to Portage,
thence over Arlington Prairie, rich
and beautiful stretch of country, to
the village of Arlington, where dinner
will be had. From Arlington the
tourists will proceed to Lodi, thence
to Prairie du Sac and Sank City for
the evening, and then back to Bara-
boo, making a trip Of approximately
rs miles, over exceptionally good
roads. The Baraboo Marine band will
be carried, as in the past, and viii
give concerts at the various stops. It
is planned to dispense with speaking
this year. and to make the trip pleas
ure jaunt in every sense of the word.
No advertising of any kind will be
permitted, nor will souvenirs be dis
tributed as in the past.
The other trips taken have been
very successful and enjoyable, and it
is planned to make this one equally
so. The fare charged those wishing
to take the trip will be $3.50, the same
as last year. Of this, the car owner
will receive $500 for each person car
ried, and the balance of the fare viii
go to the association to cover the
many expenses incident to handling
the trip. Each year the association
has lost money on the trip, but this
year it is hoped to at least make ex-
penses by doing away with the SOU
venirs, and keeping the other ex-
penses down to minimum.
The committee which will have
charge of the trip this year is the
same committee which has handled
the two previous trips, and consists
of VIM. NJ OFT, A. w. Rohn and L..
S. Van Orden, and such others as they
may select to help them with various
phases of the work The committee
is now ready to list the names Of
owners of cars who intend to make
the trip, and it is suggested that AN
those who own cars AMI care to 60 on
this trip give their names to one Of
the committee as soon as possible, so
the definite arrangements as to trans
portation can be made. All details
have not yet been settled upon, but
as they are determined the public
will be informed through the press. It
is hoped that the citizens of this com
munity will cooperate with the com
mittee in making this trip the most
pleasant and most successful trip yet
planned.

CITIES SAVING BABIES
Most Of Larger municipalities En-
gagged in Work.
Milk Inspection, Visiting Nurses and
lnfant-Welfare Stations Among
the Most Important
Features.

OF the 500 American cities with TO-
600 or more population, over two-thirds
have reported to Uncle Sans chill
dren's bureau that some kind of work
affecting the health of babies Is carried
on by the municipality from public
funds, according to the tabular an
alysis Of infant-welfare work by public
and private agencies in the United
States which has just been published
by the bureau. In 20 cities this work
is so highly organized that a special
division devoted to child hygiene is in
cluded in the city health department.
Cities of every type are found among
those reporting special municipal
health work for babies. In general it
appears that municipal work is more
highly developed in large cities than In
small, and yet two cities with less than
100000 population-Duluth, Mimi, and
Montclair, N. J.,-are found among the
20 having a municipal division of child
hygiene. The others are Boston, Buff
falO, N. z; Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleve-
land, o.; Detroit, Mich; Jersey City,
N. j.; Kansas City, Mo-; Los Angeles,
CAL; Milwaukee; Nashville, Tenn;
New York, Newark, N. j.; Philadel-
phia, Pittsburgh, Pa; Providence, II.
l.; Seattle, Wash. Toledo, o.
Babies and mothers are helped by
the municipalities in various ways. 1t
is true that 255 cities report milk in
spection as the only municipal activity
directly affecting babies, but 100 mu-
inequalities employ a nurse to visit the
homes and teach the mother what to
do for her baby, and to help her when
the baby is sick. Special municipal
nurses are assigned In 63 cities to the
care and instruction of prospective
mothers. In 60 cities infant-welfare
stations are maintained with doctors in
attendance, and mothers bring their
babies for weighing and examination
and advice about feeding and general
care. Many cities have both infant
welfare stations and visiting nurses.
Glasses for instructing older school
girls in infant hygiene are conducted
by A municipalities.
Many state departments of health
and extension divisions of state uni
versities also report extensive educa-
tional work in child hygiene, such as
lending exhibits, lantern slides and
films, distributing pamphlets and send
ing out lectures, maintaining a regular
press service and conducting special
campaigns for complete birth registra-
ton. Kansas, New Jersey, New York
and Ohio have organized special divi-
sions of child hygiene within the state
departments Of health. In Massachu-
sets infant-welfare work is a well-de-
fined feature of the work of the divi-
sion of hygiene.

Kidney Disorder
CRY DIR. V. n. PIERCE.N

The most simple methods are usu-
ally the most effective ones when
treating any disorder of the human
system. The mere drinking a cup
of hot water each morning, plenty
Of pure water all day, and a little
Anuric before every meal has been
found the most effective means OF
overcoming kidney trouble. Death
would occur If the kidneys did not
work day and night in separating
pOisons and uric acid from the blood.
The danger signals are backache,
depressions, pains, heavinesS, drowsi-
ness, irritability, headaches, chilli
ness, rheumatic twinges, swollen
joints or govt.
Since 1t is such a simple matter to
step into your favorlte drug store and
obtain Anuric, anyone who earnestly
desires to regain health and new life
win waste no time in beginning this
treatment.

EACH ROCK TELLS OWN STORY
BY Putting All This Information To-
gether Uncle Sans Biologists
Learn How Earth Was Formed.

Every rock tells its own story to
Uncle Sans biologists, who are con-
stantly at work studying the formation
of the ground in various parts of the
country. In few places is the story
of the upbuilding of the earth's crust
so plainly and impressively told as
in the Grand Canyon of Arizona,
whose walls form a great natural geo.
logical section, in which each layer of
rock is in its original position relative
to those above and below it.
AS a rule the geologist who would
decipher the records of the rocks must
get q bit here and a bit there. He
may find the edges of some beds ex-
posed in q river bluff and others stick
ing out on a steep mountain side. He
determines by fossils or other means
the order In which the beds were de-
posted, and by putting all his infor-
nation together he constructs what he
calls the columnar section for the dis
trict in which he is wOrking-that is,
a section showing the order, thickness
and character of the beds. Such
section discloses the strata that form
the upper part of the earth's crust at
that place, just as a slice of layer
cake shows at q glance the various
layers of which it is composed.
After a number of districts in a
region have been studied and their
general columnar sections determined,
the geologic history of the region can
be learned by comparing these sec
tons, just as the engineer who is drill
ing for low-grade copper ores COM
pares his drill records and thus learns
the outlines of the ore body. Such a
comparison of the beds at one place
and another shows how certain beds
change in character and thickness
from place to place or even thin out
and disappear. 1t enables the geolO-
gist to draw some conclusions as tc
the former distribution of land and
sea, to distinguish the deposits laid
down in deep water from those spread
by rivers over their flood plains, and
to reconstruct in imagination the
course of events at a time long be-
fore the beginning of the Grand Cam
yOn.

the late Canon Anger. The canon
was very fond Of children, and set out
one night to attend party given "by

Leaving his coat and hat downstairs
he quietly opened the drawing-room
door, where the buzz of voices an
nounced the presence of company.
Dropping on his hands AMI knees he
entered, making strange noises distinct
ly resembling the nelghing of horse.
Aware Of a dead silence, he looked up
and found the guests assembled for On

with disgust not unmixed with alarm.
The children's party was next door.

Artificial ears are 50 skillfully made

When the person who has lost an

assert that no two ears are alike and
that il takes skillful workman to
