AFTER EFFECTS OF 'FLU' LEAVE
 SYSTEM BADLY SHATTERED

If you have been through a siege of the flu, you know the severe strain which this disease puts on the system. The body is left sore, nervous system is all out of gear, and it seems that you will never get back your old-time strength.
 Even though fortunate enough to survive the flu, do not make the mistake of thinking that you are out of danger.
 Right now few bottles of S.S.S.

To My Subscribers
THE Villas COUNTY
NEWS WILL INCREASE IT'S
SUBSCRIPTION PRICE.

After January LIST, 1920, the
price of the Villas County
News will be $500 per year,
payable in advance.
Owing to the increased cost
this month in our news print
paper and other material used
in the publication of the
News, this move is absolutely
necessary. l had hoped that
the price of material would
drop after the war and it
would not be necessary to adj
vance the price, but such is
not the case. Instead of
drop, the cost has jumped
ahead, at an astounding rate
and there is no apparent re-
lief in sight.
With newspapers elsewhere
raising their prices, and quite
a number suspending opera
tons, it is shown the sub
scriber that the advance in
the price of the Villas County
News is necessary. My sub
scribers therefore will under
stand the situation.
However, to every one who
pays one year in advance be-
fore January LIST, may do SO
at the old rate of $50.
Better take advantage of
this opportunity and send in
your subscription. We will
begin mailing you blanks this
week for your renewal at $3.50
for the coming year.
Yours very truly,
d. C. MENEFEE.

HERE FROM ALABAMA
His Initiation in the Rigors of
Real North Wisconsin Win
ter Adds Test to Short
Outing for Southern Man.

Homer L. Thomas and Ben H !.
Walker of Birmingham, Ala
bama were weekend visitors in
the Big Woods country, the
former hunting deer, and the lat
ter Investigating the winter
beauties of this northern region.
Mr.. Thomas is one OF the own
ers of Camp Winnepe, the boys
camp on Catfish lake which OPP
crates eight weeks in the sum-
mer season. He is superintend-
ent of athletics in the Birming-
ham schools and has made a rec
ord for that school since taking
charge of athletics. Mr.. Walker
is a business man from the South
land, and this was his initial Wis
it in Wisconsin.
In fact Mr.. Walker had never
seen a real winters crop of snow
balls until he arrived in Eagle
River Saturday morning in a
real blizzard. Saturday being
spent in a north woods deer
camp rather appealed to this
gentleman, especially the trip to
Eagle River from camp thirteen
miles in the woods. He was
thoroughly initiated into the
pleasures of boosting trio OF
Fords and Maxwells through
snowdrifts and for half the num-
Der of miles from camp into the
village. But at that he was
there with the real qualities of a
mans man, and will never forget
his initial visit. There is no
doubt but that he will return
next summer when the flowers
are blooming, and 22-below-zero
weather is forgotten.

migration work in that section for

of that country in this section. Mr..
Benson stated to the Avalanche man
that many of the farmers of that see

ed enormous sums Of money for IL,

down TO easy life and enjoy the con-
veniences Of plenty money, nice
comfortable home in good climate

his is the best country for them The
climate win suit them, and they US
ually want improved places so that
they can at once have the use Of a
home, orchards, gardens, etc
Mr. Benson states that he is az
present acting as immigration agent
