 With the idea of stimulating friend ly rivalry between counties of the state in the forthcoming United War Work Campaign, the National HeaG- quarters has worked out the follow ing plan which applies exclusively to the states of the Southern Department which includes Arkansas.
 The four counties of Arkansas eX- ceeding their quota by the largest amount will have motor trucks In over seas service in France named for them. It would be a distinguish ing honor to have four of these trucks which work on the battle lines in France named for as many counties in this state. Chairmen are expected to make every effort to win this honor for their county. State headquarters reports great enthusiasm and it is confidently expected that the state will go over the top for one million dollars.

Important to all Women
 Readers of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands of womer have kidney or bladder trouble and never suspect it.
 Womens' complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease.
 If the kidneys are not in healthy con dition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased
 You may suffer pain in the back, head ache and loss of ambition.
 Poor health makes you nervous, irrita- ole and maybe despondent; it makes anyone so.
 But hundreds of women claim that Dr. kilmer's Swamp Root, by restoring health to the kidneys, proved to be just the remedy needed to overcome such conditions.
 A good kidney medicine, possessing real healing and curative value, should be a blessing to thousands of nervous, over-worked women.
 Many send for sample bottle to see what Swamp Root, the great kidney liver and bladder medicine will do for them. Every reader of this paper, who has not already tried it, by enclosing ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co.,, Binghamton, \ l., may receive sample size bottle by Parcel Post. You can purchase the medium and large size bottles at all drug stores. Adv.
