HOME BACKING HELPS

Miss Ellen Ballou is in receipt OF
the following letter from a Stanford
boy who is climbing toward the top
and who has the respect and good
will of all who know him: Gre
ceived your letter today, the anniver-
sary of the declaration of war with
Germany. We certainly do appreci-
ate the fact that we are still remem-
bered at home. believe those who
are left at home can do more toward
winning the war by letting the sol
diers know that they are backed up
by the people at home than in any
other way. My regiment is ready to
leave at moments notice, but it
may be several weeks before we Cet
orders, because uncertainty is the
only thing that is certain in time Of
war. I once thought that enjoyed
school, but this life has fascination
that | have failed to find elsewhere.
NY one idea is to make good here.
Letters are more highly appreciated
than anything in camp life and this
is doubly true when they are from
home. Sincerely, Harry w. Farmer,

THE GREAT WAR HAS MADE
CIGARETTES A NECESSITY.

"Our boys must have their smokes.
Send them cigarettes!" This is a
familiar appeal now to all of us.
Among those most in demand is
the now famous toasted" cigarette
LUCKY STRIKE. Thousands of this
favorite brand have been shipped to
France. There is something home
like and friendly to the boys in the
sight of the familiar green packages
with the red circle.
This homelike, appetizing quality
of the LUCKY STRIKE cigarette is
largely due to the fact that the Burley
tobacco used in making it has been
toasted. "It's toasted" was the ''slo-
gan" that made a great success of
LUCKY STRIKE in less than year.
Now the American Tobacco Co. is
making IS million LUCKY STRIKE
Cigarettes day.
A good part of this immense pro-
cuction is making its way across the
water to cheer our boys

TALK OPTIMISM AND VICTORY

This is the time for every Ameri-
can to show his patriotism to the full
extent. Don't become pessimistic be-
cause the allied line has gone back
for a few miles in order to save some
men. The Allied officers outrank
the entire horde of Hun leaders in
intelligence and generalship and we
must rely on their judgment and ac-
ton. Refrain from open criticism
of the management of the war and
the present campaign. Your words
may fall on the ear of some pro-Ger-
man 1--WE have a number of them
right here in our midst and it will
give him great satisfaction to hear
you complain. Talk optimism and
victory! Get the idea of defeat out
of your head. America was never
defeated and never will be.

Why Take CaIomeI?
DR.. Thacher's Liver & Blood Syrup
will do all that calomel will do and
without the latter effects"

Years ago, when people were bilious,
when the liver got lazy and failed to do
it's work or the stomach was out of
condition, calomel was the standby.
By and by the users of calomel found
that the "after effects" of taking the
drug were as bad and more often worse
than the ailment for which it was
taken.
DR.. Thatcher, in seeking a medicine
to take the place of calomel-one that
would do all the good that calomel
would do, and yet leave none of its evil
effects perfected DIR. TEACHERS Liver &
Blood Syrup. This was in 1852, and
each year since has added to the conf
dence of those who have used it.
Miss Susie Brewer, of Chattanooga,
Tenn, tried calomel. She was suffer-
ing with very serious cold and grippe
and had no appetite whatever. After
the calomel failed she tried DR.. Thach-
er's Liver & Blood Syrup. She felt
better after taking three doses and she
soon got entirely well. 81 think DIR.
Thacher's Liver and Blood Syrup is q
wonderful medicine" she said, "and
am very thankful tried it,"
For nearly three quarters of a century
this sterling preparation has been an
sold standby" in thousands of homes
in treating rheumatism, dyspepsia, in
digestion and other stomach and liver
complaints. 1t is q powerful tonic and
blood purifier and can be used with
the utmost confidence.

Ypres In Ruins
One cannot go beyond the edge of
Ypres unless one has business there
as a fighter, but standing on the
broken walls of the old weaving mill
near the western edge a good view
of the ruins can be had. The half
gone corner towers of the famous
Cloth Hall can be seen, and the arch
of the crumbled cathedral. All the
rest of the place rs a dead level of
destruction, and the continued
methodical shelling by the Germans
may in time bring the remainder OF
the towers and the cathedral arch
down also.

At sea, wireless is extensively used
in connection with submarine chas-

ships carry out long patrols in COOP

State Auditor J. A. o. Preus made
the estimate, but added that federal

definite plan is worked out by the
government. The auditor urges early
surveys to designate agricultural

With the American Army in
France, Aug. 2.-(By Mail. 1.-The
principal road into Ypres-frOm this
side-leads through Poperinghe. Ap-
preaching Poperinghe, likewise from
this side you see one of the rarest
sights in all Belgium; new houses.
People never before lived in new
houses in Belgium houses always
were old; they were like the trees and
the hills and the rest of the scenery.
but now on the forks of the road you
find little new houses one after an
other.
If it were not that nothing can
make you forget the war, once you
pass the Belgian border, you could
easily imagine yourself in the out
skirts of new factory or mining
town in America. These little houses
are the most pitiful nondescripts.
They are butt of boxes and of dis
carded timbers Of one kind and an
other, forming typical Shantytown
of the American sort, save that many
have roofs of tile and the others have
thatched coverings.
In nearly every window is display
ed something for sale, green grocer
les, post cards, odds and ends that
soldiers buy, and you think at first
that this temporary market is re-
sponsible for the new one-street town
strung along the road. But that, too,
is a mistake. Poperinghe explains
the Belgian shantytown.- Poperinghe
known all over the British front
as "Pop"-is deserted, and these
houses were built along the road by
refugees who were unwilling to go
any further than they had to.
Disconsolate Cats.
You can ride all about Poperinghe
and see little sign Of life, save an
occasional hungry looking cat. All
