NATURE ANSWERS HUMANITY'S AGE.
 OLD QUESTION
Answer Found at Last in Re- markable Mineral Deposit in Mississippi.

How long must I suffer with this torturing stomach trouble and how long must I endure this agony of skin and blood disease?
 Two questions which humanity has asked for generations. We have only just come to the answer. It comes direct from Nature and gives us real knowledge of her boundless ef- forts to alleviate human suffering.
 In Mississippi there has recently been discovered most remarkable mineral clay, containing medicinal properties almost reyond belief. A solution of this mir eral, gotten by percolation with the water of a spring found on the spot, has become the standard of efficacy in the treatment of stomach and blood diseases in the South.
 Thousands of sufferers, tired of useless remedies and drugs, have turned to this Nature remedy and found speedy and grateful relief. Hundreds of cases of the most obsti- nate type of Indigestion and Rheuma- tism and blood disorders have yielded almost magically to this amazing remedy.
 It IS purely natural, contains no alcohol and no added drugs of any kind. It is sold just as it comes from Nature. In whole communities in the South no other medicine is used for the family ailments. This natural medicine is sold under the name of Sulferro-Sol and no other medicine now offered is known to heal and build as this medicine does.
 Hundreds of letters are on file in the Company office telling of the great blessing this remarkable rem edy is bringing to sufferers.
 Sulferro-Sol is sold and recom- mended by the Hesterly Drug Store. They will gladly tell you of it's great healing and building powers.

IDEA JUST SUITED Or. HALE
Famous Minister Declares That He
Had Always Wanted His Church
Called "The Exeter Club"

The sexton of Edward Everett Hale's
church suffered from that convenient
form of deafness that prevented
man from hearing what he does not
wish to hear and enables him to hear
what he does wish to hear. Occa-
sionally, when sweeping the sidewalk
in front of the church, some stranger
would ask him for information, and
his usual answer was a wave of the
hand. I'm totally deaf, totally deaf.
You will have to ask someone in the
church"
1t often happened that Doctor Hale,
in the midst of busy day, would find
the luncheon hour at hand and an
important appointment still unmet.
1t was his custom to invite his caller
into his study, and ask the janitress
to make an oyster stew. The sexton
resented Doctor Hale's informality.
The time came for new sign to be
placed on the front of the church, and
Doctor Hale and the assistant pastor
were standing in the vestry aisle dis
cusSing just what the wording OF 1t
should be. To their surprise the con-
versation was suddenly interrupted by
the deaf sexton who stood far enough
away to make doubtful the ability OF
a normal persons overhearing what
had been said. "I'll tell you what to
put on that sign!" he exclaimed
"'Come in! Everybody welcome
Meals served at all hours Of the day
and night!"
"All right" said Doctor Hale quick
ly. That's what we will do. I've al
ways wanted to call the church THE

"FIying Squadron" to Aid Harvest.

The state council of defense has
appealed to automobile owners to en-
list in the flying squadron which will
help harvest Wisconsins 1917 crop.
Kenosha county organized the first
squad several weeks ago, and many
women enlisted not only their ma
chimes but their own services. Lang
lade county has a flying squadron
which will take labor to and from the
fields, and in addition the business
men of Amigo will suspend their own
work for ten days to give the country
districts the benefit of the labor thus
released.
The state council urges the need of
extra farm labor because of reports
from every agricultural section.
Through the cooperation of citizens
the acreage has been largely increased
this year, and the problem now is to
harvest the crop so that not one bushel
of grain or "a pound of produce shall
be wasted.
In many cases farmers wives will
be unable to feed the extra help need
ed, and it will be the duty of the flying
squadron in the district to carry the
labor from the cities to the fields and
bring the men back to their homes at
night. Under this arrangement but
one meal will be furnished at the farm.
Volunteers with automobiles are
asked to apply to the county council
in their county.
