WET PROPAGANDA

The liquor interests of Ohio are re-
sorting to their usual campaign of
deception and are trying to capitalize
the influenza epidemic at Camp Sher-
man to their advantage. They have
persistently, through personal agents
and a few newspapers, that would
carry their false statements said,
that liquor was being shipped by the
carload to Camp Sherman to be used
to check the epidemic that is causing
the death of so many of our splendid
boys.
But the statement is false: Major
James F. C. Duvall, Camp Adjutant
said:
"There is not word of truth
in the statement that carloads of
whiskey is being shipped and
used to counteract the epidemic
at Camp Sherman. An offer
was made to furnish whiskey,
and was emphatically refused"
If the vets will try by their false
statements to capitalize this awful
catastrophe, which has been causing
so many deaths, what will they not
do in order to win their point? This
is an added reason why the wet or
ganizations, with their campaign OF
fraud and deception, should be wiped
off the map in Ohio. And while oul
President and the allied armies are
demanding an unconditional surren.
der of the barbarous Huns in Eu-
rope, it is up to US to compel an un
conditional surrender of their ally II
America on November 5th.

each animal secured means not only
one less enemy of livestock opera
tiOns, but the gain is continuing, since
not only is the career Of one predatory
animal thus ended but also that of all
his possible progeny. Each one killed
means one predatory animal less to
perpetuate his race.
In two and half years the biolOgi-
cal survey hunters have killed more
than $4,000 predatory animals. Fig
uring the losses these would have in
fiicted, as mentioned above, the work
of the hunters has effected an annual
saving in live stock of more than
$3,940O00. In addition to this the fed
eral treasury has benefited to the ex-
tent of nearly $4,000 from the sale of
skins of the animals secured. The
hunters are not allowed to accept
bounties, and all skins taken become
the property of the government. Some
of these are deposited in the National
museum for exhibition and study pur-
poses, and the rest are sold and the
proceeds turned into the treasury de-
partment.

He tried it. and after few nights
he met his friend again, who inquired
how the remedy was working.

Sandy. ''I'll tell ye hoo it worked.

May Be New Source of Oil.

A preliminary inquiry into the pOssi-
bility of the commercial utilization OF
ductiOn has been undertaken by the
agricultural authorities in the FEEDER
ated Malay states. From time to time
suggestions have been made for the
utilization for this purpose of the seeds
of the cultivated Para rubber tree, as
large quantities of the seed go to waste
on the rubber plantations of the mid
die East. Experiments have proved
according to ii British government re-
port, that not only is the oil extracted
purposes, but that the residue can be
used for cattle food or as fertilizer.

YOU NEED NOT SUFFER WITH
BACKACHE AND RHEUMATISM

For centuries GOLD MEDAL HARLEM
Oil has been a standard household remedy
for kidney, liver, bladder and stomach
trouble, and all diseases connected with
the urinary organs. The kidneys and
bladder are the most important organs OF
the body. They are the filters, the puri-
fers of your blood. If the poisons which
enter your system through the blood and
stomach are not entirely thrown out by
the kidneys and bladder you are doomed.
Weariness, sleeplessness, nervousness,
despondency, backache, stomach trouble,
headache, pain in loins, and lower abdo-
men, gall-stones, gravel, difficulty when
urinating, cloudy and bloody urine, rheu-
matism, sciatica, lumbago, all warn you
to look after your kidneys and bladder.
GOLD MEDAL HARLEM Oil Capsules are
what you need.
They are not "patent medicine" nor
new discovery" For 200 years they
