The Genuine.

There is really no reason why men
or women with thin, watery blood and
consequent poor health should remain
in that unfortunate condition. Thin,
nervous, rundown, tired people never
get much happiness out of life.
Men and women with the bloom of
health in their cheeks, cheerful, sun
ny disposition and an attractive per-
sonsonality are the folks who get most
of life's enjoyment, pleasure, and
success.
GUIDES to-Mangan furnishes
thin, watery blood with the necessary
nourishment to enrich it, enabling it
to supply energy, vitality, and streng
tn to every part of the body.
Physicians recommend GUIDES Pep
to-Mangan to patients suffering from
anemia because its beneficial and last
ing qualities are we'll known to the
medical profession.
GUIDES Pepto-mangan is obtainable
in either liquid or tablet form. Both
forms contain exactly the same siren
9Th and medical properties.
When you buy Pepto-Mangan Of
your druggist, be sure the name
"Gude's is on the package. Without
"Gude's" it is not Pepto-M angan.

 Shortage of Stockings
 We had everything for them but stockings, as we bought up the entire supply of Vladivostok That wouldn't go around, and even now some of the children are running barefoot and without shoes on the cold cement bar racks floor In the meantime another department of the Red Cross opened soup kitchen and now serves soup prepared by the Russian mothers, so every little stomack is filled each day.
 While they play in their warm clothes they begin to think of other things, and they say to us: "Auntie, daitcha mnie kuklu," which means, "Auntie, give me dolly" for you know they think we can supply every thing.

TAKING GOOD CARE OF THE
 REFUGEES

In Vladivostok the refugees are housed in barracks five to ten miles from the city and to these barracks the American Red Cross workers go each morning in Red Cross automo. piles to instruct the refugees how to live.
 The following is taken from letter written by an American Red Cross worker:
 Each barrack is long building with small room on each end, the rest of the space being without partitions. At first all the refugees lived together in this large room, but now it is partf- tioned into spaces for two or three families. Bathing facilities were long since fitted up in these barracks. At want to take a bath, as it was mot time yet" but others were happy and thankful to do so. It is no wonder that they had no facilities before, as the water has to be carried over from the hills, which makes it very expen- sive; but now everybody gets a bath once a week. Of course many of them want to put off taking a bath "dru- gois-ras" (for another time) or "Va- vtra" Tomorrow"
 Most of the Russians at First Bar racks are from the Baltic provinces, Riga, Revel, and Wilma. They have lost their homes and husbands and have been in want for three years. Many of them were once in good cir cumstances but have nothing now, and these are the ones who are taking most intereset in our sewing rooms.
 When I first went to start these sewing rooms I went about asking who could sew. They were all very indifferent and at First river only eight volunteered and those mostly because they were attracted by the warm sewing room which we had fitted up at the end of the barracks.
 As soon, however, as they saw chil- dren's garments made by their own hands from the nice warm material the Red Cross furnished, they began to want these garments for their chil- dren, and when we decided to pay them for piece-work I did not have ehought room for all. Now | have forty-one working in two rooms.
 Eager and Patient
 The women make full outfits from underwear to overcoats and caps. Some do good work and are very fast. Several of them make as high as 20 roubles week; but we were all very sorry for one little girl who made only rubles in two weeks. How she labors every day! But all her fingers are thumbs, she drops her thimble because she is learning to use one, she breaks and loses more needles than she earns, yet her expression of delight at a garment she finished is worth it all, and she confidently hopes to be ableto some day to make clothes for her little brother and sister.
 One Sunday about three weeks ago we dressed over two hundred little children from six months of age to those aged fifteen in full outfits, all made in the sewing room. The next day some of the little fellows had their panties on wrong way about be- cause you know some of them have

COFFEEN GETS CONTRACTS.
DecOrah Contractor Secured Several
Big Jobs the Past Week.

A. R. Coffeen, Decorah's we'll
known contractor has secured several
big jobs recently. Last week he was
awarded the engineering work for a
big paving job at Postville. The
business section will be paved and
possibly about ten blocks of the re-
sidence section. The work to be done
will probably amount to about $780,
600. The preliminary work will b.
done this year and the paving put
in next year.
Another big job Mr.. Coffeen has
just landed is $4,000 creamery
at Fayette. 1t will be built out of
brick and concrete.
At Cresco he got the contract for
remodeling the Union Savings Bank.
A new front, vaults, etc. will be put
in.
Mr.. Coffeen is just finishing up a
new bank at Jackson Junction, which
will be completed in a few days. It
looks like busy year for Mr.. Coff-
cen, as it seems he secures new
contract for some big building about
every week.

Troop Train Kills 20 Cattle.

The troop train which arrived in
Waverly shortly after O'Clock We'd
nesday morning spilled more gore
than the soldiers whom it was car
rying to their homes in the west.
When the train was passing a point
near the H. ]. Tiedt farm in Franklin
township it struck a herd Of cattle
belonging to Mr.. Tiedt. Fifteen Of the
animals were found dead on the
right-of-way. Mr.. Tiedt says, that
twenty head are missing and it is
probable that the five missing ami
mails have strayed from the i'm
mediate neighborhood of the acct
dent.
The cattle were mostly young stock
and feeders, but the accident repre-
sents quite loss. The railroad conn
pany ON Thursday morning sent a
gang Of men out to skin the animals
and save such of the hide as was
worth saving, and to bury the bodies.

Waukon Wants City Scales.

A petition is in circulation and it
is being signed up with alacrity by
the farmers round about Waukon and
the townfolks as we'll, which will be
presented to the city council asking
them to erect and adopt the city
scale system for which there has
been a demand for many years past.
The petition will be such large one
that it cannot be otherwise than
granted. Accurate weights cannot re-
suit in an imposition upon anybody,
so there are no. just grounds for OPP
position to city scales. If trial of
them does not prove practical and
meet the expenses of maintainence
they can readily be abolished 1t is
believed, though, that they will
prove satisfactory and popular, ana
result in good boost for Waukon

GETS LETTER FROM FRANCE.
Mrs. John Pollitt Received Following
Report About Death of Brother,
Albert Lien
April 80, 1919.

April 80, 1919.
Mrs. ]. c. Pollitt,
DEBORAH, Iowa.
My Dear Mrs. Pollitt:
We have just received the follow
ing report which was obtained from
the records of Co. E. 16Sth Infantry.
albert Lien was wounded in the
Foret de Fere, Chateau Thierry,
July %, 1918, and died in Evacua-
ton hospital No. III, on July 80,
1918. He enlisted in the old 1st Iowa
Infantry at Charles City, Iowa and
was transferred to this organization
in August 1917.
HE served in the Lorraine sector,
and also the Champaign engagement,
July Is, 1918. He was a willing
worker and was always we'll thought
of-by his comrads. He was wounded
near Sergy, France. The Field hos
pital can give the location of his
grave. He was in the July 26 and 81
battles.
We have another report with in
formation given by Sergeant Nicholas
Samuelson, Co. E. 16S Infantry. He
says: eve had advanced to top Of
hill PIP, just to the right of Sergy,
France, on July %. We were firing
on the retreating Germans and were
receiving considerable machine gun
fire in return. Lien was hit in the
side by a machine gun bullet. He
was cool and did not seem to be
badly injured. He walked down the
hill to the First Aid station. He died
in Field hospital No. III, on July
80.
We are glad to obtain these de-
tails of this brave soldiers death,
and feel sure that you must be very
proud of him, that he gave his life
in defense of his country and
humanity.
The Red Cross wishes to assure
you of its sympathy in yor
Sincerely yours,

Spring improvements.

In the main the spring improve
ment campaign must be an effort to
arouse the people individually to
take care of their own property.
An old proverb says, that il everyone
will sweep before his own door, the
whole world will be clean.
Still there are some large improve
ment propositions that can be car
ried on only by general movement
of community work. If the wide
awake people Of town conclude that
the place should have a new park,
they do not always wait until con-
sentative or parsimonious tax payers
are willing to put up the money.
They are quite likely to appoint a
Community Work Day, and assemble
"a great crowd of volunteers to do
the work with their own hands.
In this way bare tracts of land
without any beauty except the view
of distant horizons, are in a day or
two transformed into neatly kept
grounds, with shrubs and trees that
in a few years will make the place
"a bower of beauty.
People take hold of these enter
prises with splendid spirit and en-
joy themselves a lot better than if
they were hustling every minute to
put money into their own pockets.
The school children work at them
with keen enjoyment They like to
be doing the same things as grown
ups.
Few towns have set aside suf-
ficient tracts in anticipation of future
growth, as parks and Fairgrounds.
The possibilities of beautiflcatio~
are limitless. 1t pays from a business
view point. And it binds people by
ties Of affection to their home town.
1t makes life better worth living.
Let everyone take hold to do his full
share and to arouse interest in
home town improvement.
