State papers relate the following
story: George Baker, while driving
his car from Orleans TO his home in
Newport on a recent night, turned
out for a milk team and ran Into a
ditch by the roadside. Trying to get
the car out caused the full gasoline
tank to overflow and spread on the
face of some water about the car and
later when men from a Newport gar
age were called to assist in getting
the car back into the highway, one of
them fell while cropping about with a
lantern, the flames communicated with
the gasoline on the water and the
body of the car was wholly burned
up. The running gear was practical

No Wonder He wouIdn,t Sell.

Captain Amundsen told an amusing
story of one Of his arctic expeditions,
Several of his dogs having died, Cap
tain Amundsen asked one of the ma
tives in his best Eskimo if he would
sell him a few dogs. To his Surprise
the request was promptly refused. The
explorer and the Eskimo had a long
argument, the explorer pointing out
that he must get dogs somehow and
the Eskimo replying that they never
sold them.
"Nonsenser" Captain Amundsen ex-
claimed. 81 have often bought dogs"
The Eskimos seemed immensely as
tonished, and at the end of another ar
gument Captain Amundsen discovered
that instead Of using the Eskimo word
for dogs he had been asking the man
to sell him some children"

GERMANS BELITTLE
AMERICAN TROOPS
SAY THEY WILL PROVE SMALL
FACTOR IN GREAT STRUGGLE.
CLAIM OUR MEN ARE NOT
EQUAL TO TASK
DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE UP
AGAINST

1t appears from news leaked out of
Germany, in spite of the unusually
close censorship, that the German Of
iicials are telling their men and wo-
men that the American troops will
cut little figure in the big war. If the
German people knew what they were
up against they would refuse to listen
to such foolish assertions.
The funniest part of it is that they
claim that Americans can't think
quick enough. What JOKE That's
our reputation-quick to think. The
German will find out soon enough.
In the meantime, we at home should
get ready for the big drive.
OF course we can't go to the front
but we can do our bit in just as inn
portant Il manner right here at home.
Let US keep fit TO carry on the indus
tries of the nation till the soil, work
the mines, and keep the ammunition
flowing to the front in a steady
stream.
Backachcs must be gotten rid of;
those stomach disorders such as indi-
gcstion, constipation, etc, must be
eliminated; weak, anacmic bodies
must be made strong and vigorous;
weak kidneys and bladder must be
strengthened; in other words we must
keep fit!
Acid Iron Mineral will keep you fit.
