Building-up for the Spring Attack
at the Front is a good deal like putting
the body in condition for an invasion
of the germs of grip, pneumonia or
cSpring fever" here at home.
At this time of the year most people
suffer from condition often called
Spring Fever. They feel tired, worn
may have frequent headaches and
sometimes pimply" or pale skin and
white lips. The reason for this is that
during the wintertime, shut up with
in doors, eating too much meat and
too little green vegetables, one heaps
fuel into the system which lie not burned
up and the clinkers remain to poison
the system clogging up of the
circulation with inactive liver and kid
neys.~ Time to put your house in order.
For an invigorating tonic which will
clarity the blood, put new life in the
body, sparkle to the eyes, and a
wholesome skin, nothing does so well
as glyceric herb extract made from
Golden Seal root, Blood and Stone
root, Oregon grape root and Wild
Cherry bark. This can be had in con-
venient, ready to- use tablet form at
all drug stores, sixty cents, and has
been sold for the past fifty years as

By reason of the nerves feeding on
the blood, when the blood is pure
the nerves feel the effect, and neuralgia
or other nerve pains disappear be-
cause such pain is the cry of the starved
nerves for food. When suffering from
backache, frequent or scanty urine,
rheumatic pains here or there, or that
constant tired feeling, the simple way
TO overcome these disorders is merely to

GOVERNMENT IS KEEN

Chairman John A. Dunlap, OF the
Liberty loan campaign committee for
Lee county. has received from the
federal comptroller OF the currency,
an indication of the way the treasury
department looks on banks which are
backward about the third Liberty
loan.
The letter says that the comptroller
recently approved an application for
a charter for new national bank In
q certain western state. as there was,
apparently, an opening for bank IN
the community in which 1t was to be
established and the applicants seem
ed to be men Of responsibility and
means and some prominence.
Unfit TO be Bankers.
Subsequently. doubt arose as to the
loyalty and patriotism of the appli-
cants, and It was ascertained that
although the six applicants for the
charter were reported to be. men OF
considerable means-several OF them
claiming to be worth quarter OF
million dollars or more-the aggre-
gate amount OF Liberty bonds of the
first and second issues to which the
six applicants had subscribed was
only $500, several OF the applicants
for the charter having taken no LIB
erty bonds at all, and their aggregate
subscriptions to the Red Cross had
been only $149.
The comptroller revoked the author
ity given for the organization OF this
proposed national bank, on the ground
that men Of means in these times
who show SO little patriotism and SO
little public spirit in the matter OF
making subscriptions to Liberty
bonds and to the Red Cross are I'M.
fit to be placed in charge OF any ma
tional bank

From the Seattle Star. April p,
1918, we take pleasure in quoting
the following excerpt: H'For brav-
cry on the battlefield of France,
where they drove bullet-riddled
ambulances under she'll fire for
nine days, and went six days with
out sleep or rest, two University
of Washington men were awarded
the Croix de Guerre in Paris TO-
day. They are Lieut.. Albert
Smith, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Gcor-

Mr.. Edward Bickel will be re-
membered by many of the village
people here where he lived with
his parents; his father being con-
nected with the former Chippewa
State Bank. The paper states
that ''all of Seattle is proud OF
him." and the people of this vii.
lage likewise are pleased to learn
of his worth and bravery and
which secured him the coveted
trophy.

SUGAR SHOWED
OUR BACKBONE
American Willingness to Give Up
Luxury Demonstrated Ma
tons War Conscience.
STAND WITH THE ALLIES.
BY Reducing Consumption People Of
the United States Averted
Famine at Home In Spite
Of Low Supplies.

The fact that the people OF the
United States were able to reduce by
more than one-haIf million tons their
July, August, September and October
consumption of sugar proves conch-
sively that their war conscience was
thoroughly awakened and that the
country as whole stood ready to fol-
low the injunctions of the Government.
Our normal consumption of sugar In
he four-month period beginning with
July has been 100000 tons per month,
a total of 100000 for the quarter
year.
In July, when our sugar stringency
began to reach its height consumption
was reduced to 100000 tons. In Au-
gust only $4,000 tons went into dis
tribution and in September only 279,-
900 tons. In October the distribution
fell to 100000 TONS
II the general public had failed to
observe the injunctions Of the Food
Administration this country would
have been In the throes of a sugar
famine before the end of August. Our
great anxiety to those familiar with
the sugar situation. They feared that
1t would be absolutely impossible to
reduce consumption to point where
sugar would no longer be a mere lux
ury In the American diet.
Few accomplishments Of the Food
Administration will stand forth so pre-
dominantly as this reduced consump
ton of sugar. BY II we have been able
to bridge over the period of stringency
until the new beet and Louisiana cane
sugar crops w-re in sight
Now the nation Is in a position so
that If we choose we may return TO
our normal home use Of sugar, and
Europe, with the release Of ships to go
far afied, can maintain its recent re-
stricted rations. If, however, those
nations are to increase their use of
sugar very considerably 1t must be by
our continued sharing with them
through limiting our own consump-
ton.

Three Men and the. Vision They Saw
By BRUCE BARTON

In certain city dwell three men. And by
accident of birth one of them is Catholic and
one is Protestant and one is Jew.
For thirty years they have engaged in BUSH
ness side by side, and the Catholic has not dealt
with the Protestant and the Catholic and tho
Protestant have had no dealings with the Jew.
What is he to mer each man has said.
HE is not of my faith: will avoid him."
= So for thirty years they have dwelt together.
strangers in friendly world.
Then came the shadow of fearful war.
And out OF those three homes three boys went
forth alone. Three fathers waited heart-worn
for the letters from over there.
There are Soldiers Of Frendliness over
here" the boys wrote home. "They bring us
chocolate, and motion pictures, and baseball,
and good lectures; and the memory of mother
and Of God"
Help those friendly agencies when you have
the chance" each boy wrote home,
So it happened that the three fathers found
themselves working shoulder TO shoulder in
great campaign for funds.
Jew-but a. good citizens united in common
cause.
And a. they worked they came TO know each
other, and they were ashamed that for so many
years they had been strangers side by side.
"Surely this is one of the compensations of
war;" they said, that in our deeper love for
our boys we have learned a new respect for one
another"
So now spirit was born into that city. As
though in its heart it had discovered something
of the greater religion, whose God is Father;
and whose faith and creed are love.
