many of these noble old heroes would
pass into the other world with hard
thoughts of the state that had repudiated
it's obligation to them at the last and
of the governor, their old comrade, who
had suffered this to be done.
This of itself would seem TO be suf-
ficient TO justify the governor N calling
an extra session. He had hoped that
some generous-minded person mi ,ht ad-
vance this money and take the chances
of being repaid by the state as was done
i'm one instance heretofore. Although
wide publicity has been given to the sub
ject, no one has come. forward to sus-
gest a willingness TO do so.
CITIZENS WILL PAY EXPENSES.
1.-THE principal argument urged
against the extra session is the ConGI-
ton of the states finances a the pres
emit time. The treasury has no surplus
money and it is difficult to meet the
running, expenses together with appro-
pria tions made to the institutions of
the state, from month to month. Under
these circumstances l have hesitated
much over the question of making the
call. In the emergency several gener-
Gus and liberal-hearted citizens proffer-
ed to make UP the cost of the session.
il found necessary. They have offered
to put this money to the credit Of the
governor and. have assured him that
they will do so before the legislature
meets. In this way the state can be
saved from any loss, and the legisla-
are itself, when it comes together, can
deal with the subject. In any event.
the money will be in hand to meet the
expenses of the session.
81 shall issue proclamation during
the present week and I hope to have
the legislature meet on a day that Will

camp Grant, Rockford, Ill. - The
first weeks test on the new Camp
Grant rifle range demonstrated that
when it comes to hitting the bullseye
the lads from the country have it on
the city chaps every time.
The two prairie regiments at the
camp, the 342d, recruited from north
ern Illinois, and the 341st, the Wiscon-
sin organization, led in the work on
the range by satisfactory margin.
The 342d topped the list of infantry
commands, shooting with an average
OF 1872. The 341st was second, with
an average of 375. The 343d and
344th, which hail from the west and
north sides of Chicago, respectively,
were next in line, their country
brethren having accumulated greater
number of bullseyes than they with
their big city range of vision were
able to.
The results of the first week on the
rifle range are declared to be eminent
ly satisfactory. Many Wisconsin boys
who scarcely ever had hold of rifle
previously went ont and made a mark
of better than 40 out of possible so.
With little more practice the boys
of the Eighty-sixth division are going
to be in real shape to take care of the
Fritz snipers along the battle front.
Selectiye men at Camp Grant will
soon be given an opportunity to add to
| their knowledge of the game of war
through the movies as well as on the
drill field and in the study room. Maj
Gen. Barry has ordered sets of motion
pictures showing important phases in
training. They have been prepared I'M
der the direction of the general staff
and an officer will be detailed to care
| for them and to work out a schedule
of instructive entertainment.
With three phases of army instruc-
ton open to them the recruits of the
| Eighty-sixth division are expected to
make rapid progress and consequently
to be fit for service across the water
sooner than was even anticipated.

FOR WEAK KIDNEYS

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfil
the promises of the manufacturer This
applies more particularly to a medicine
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says, "Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, a
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy that l know of
has so large sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of Dr..
Kilmers' Swamp-Root is due to the fact
that, SO many people claim, it fulfls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments, corrects ur-
mary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle Of
Swamp-Root by Parcel Post. Address

by the revelations made by the medi-

the biggest campaign in it's history in
the effort to sell Red Cross Christmas
seals.
Having learned that much hitherto
unknown tuberculosis exits among
young men, the state association has
felt that anti-tuberculosis work must
be pushed with greater yirility than
before the war.
AS a direct result of war revelations,
the Ma Cional Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis has
sent out q call for a sale three times
as large as the one of last year. This
will necesgitate a sale aggregating
$150,000 in Wisconsin.
