There is more Catarrh in this sec
tion of the country than all other dis
eases put together, and for years it
was supposed to be incurable. Doc
tors prescribed local remedies, and by
constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Catarrh is local disease, greatly in
fiuenced by constitutional conditions
and therefore requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Medicine,
manufactured by F. ]. Cheney & Co..
Toledo. Ohio, is constitutional rem
edy, is taken internally and acts thru
the blood on the Mucus Surfaces Of the
System. One Hundred Dollars reward
is offered for any case that Halls
Catarrh Medicine fails to cure. Send
for circulars and get testimonials.

ARE YOU RHEUMATIC7
Many Pangs That Pass for Rheuma
tism Are Really Due to Weak
Kidneys.

Is it rheumatism?
Not every pain is.
Weak kidneys let uric acid collect.
Uric acid causes many queer pains.
In the thigh it's sciatica;
In the back, lumbago;
In the nerves, neuritis.
Gout, gravel, dropsy are uric
troubles.
When you suspect the kidneys use
oan's Kidney Pills
The home-recommended remedy.
Perrysburg testimony is the best
proof.
Read this Perrysburg story:
Mrs. Mary Schroeder, Sixth St., says:
"For eight years I have been troubled
with rheumatic pains at different
times. When have had these attacks
my limbs have been so sore I could
hardly stand it, and they have panied
me so couldn't sleep. Now when !
feel one of those attacks coming on !
use Doan's Kidney Pills right away.
Doan's have never failed to help me,
although other medicines have failed
to do me any good and I wouldn't be
without them for anything" y

WOMEN IN WAR WORK
Doing Good Work in Council Of
National Defense.

Last Saturday evenings meet
ing arranged by the chairman and
educational committee of the local
council for the organization of a
War Mothers Chapter was well at
tended.
The address by Mrs. Robert Nor
ris, national president of the War
Mothers Organization, was in
structive and inspiring. She spoke
of how the society originated, its
purpose, it's work of the past year,
and the broad field open for work
in the future. The spirit of true
democracy is growing among the
war mothers of our country be-
cause of this organization. The
experiences of war have taught our
soldier boys new ideals of true
manhood and womanhood and it is
necessary that upon their return
they find us conforming to those
ideals.
Mrs. Morris suggested the name
"Victory Chapter" be given the
local society because of its being
organized during victory week.
Mrs. Roose was chosen temporary
chairman and preliminary arrange
ments were, made for permanent
organization of the war mothers of
this vicinity. Those eligible for
membership are the mothers, wives
and sisters of those engaged in the
military service of the United
States whether overseas or in can
tonments at home. Seventy-fve
members have already enrolled.
The music of the evening, directed
by Miss Williams, supervisor of
music in our public schools, was
very pleasing.
Perrysburg citizens are respond
ing with their usual generosity in
contributing many records which
will be sent to different camps for
the entertainment of our soldier
boys. This work is under the sup
ervision of Miss Bertha Hilla-
brand, who has already received 73
records. She sincerely appreciates
the readiness with which people re-
spond to her request.

FifteenMiIIion Tons ofShipping

Building 100000 tons of shipping
is the big job laid out for American
Shipyards. 1t will take years to do
this. Men working in shipyards are
assured of steady jobs if they make
good. This great fleet of ships must
be built. The United States is going
to become the first maritime nation Of
the world.
We need men accustomed to out t-of-
doors work to help us build ships. The
pay is set by the Emergency Fleet Cor
poration under direct Government con-
troll, and is higher than ever before in
the history of the industry. Do not
hesitate because you have never worked
in a shipyard before. We will train
you for some good job and will pay you
well while you are learning.
1t will take us years to build our share
of 5000, 600 tons.
A shipyard is the ideal place to
make good money this winter Get in
touch with us, either by calling at
yard or by writing to us Immediately.
Some of our best jobs are open right
now. Great Lakes Engineering Works.

Of the College Of Agriculture Of the

which will, thereby, greatly increase
the demand for food. Poland, Ru-

need food In large quantities. A great

Europe for q time to see that the

that our enormous army will not be
