nation designating Friday, June
%, 1918, National War Savings
Day, and
Whereas, "When our fathers and
sons and brothers were called by
our country to take up arms in
her defense, you did not hear an
individual soldier refuse because
his services alone would not win
the war. Each man was ready to
do his part. The great army thus
formed is going forward to face
the fire of battle and to risk ev-
erything for the safety and Sc
curity of our home and our fami-
lies. and for the very existence of
our cOuntry-these are the men
for whom you are asked to save
and lend your dollars. A country
worth fighting for is country
worth saving for"
l therefore call upon the loyal
and patriotic citizens Of Water
town, Wisconsin, to attend the
place Of registration in their dis
trict and pledge themselves to
save and buy War Savings Stamps
to the utmost of their means.

A NEW INVENTION

Wonderful discoveries in
science and medicine, as well as
mechanics, are made every day
in the United States. A reaper
for cutting sugar cane is one of
the recent successes.
Equally as interesting is It to
know that DR.. Pierce, Of the
Surgical Institute, Buffalo,
n. z, has discovered a new kid
ney and baekache remedy which
is having splendid success in
curing many bladder and kidney
troubles. Ever since the discov-
cry of uric acid in the blood by
Scheele, in 1775, and the bad
effect it had upon the body,
scientists and physicians have
striven to rid the tissues and the
blood of this poison. Because of
its over-abundance in the sys-
TEN it causes backache, pain
here and there, rheumatism,
