THE IMPOSSIBLE DONE

Two years ago the Americtn contingents ing themselves into sector of their in the cracking, sagging allied lines A year ago these troops reinforced by countless fresher reg iments, had finished the job and were sturng from Bordeaux to Rotterdam and Antwerp
 Another year and the great army had ceased to exist. It is more. Yet who would have thought on that mild January afternoon as those young, hur- redly trained, 'crazee Americans' took up small, but important, share of the battle bu, den that less than 24 months would see the trium- phant finish the army returned, demobilized again a part of the great civilian forces
 It inconcevabe Understandable in reflec- tion Yet it has been accomplished; the trans portation of great expeditionary force 2OOOOO0 equipped men, rushed together for an emergency. that emergency ended speedily and the troops turned to permanent rest bets-the homes, the factories, the offices and farms of America.
 Who now dares say anything is impossible? Where is there man who will shrug his shoulders and pessmistically comment: Tt can't be done?" Miracles were accomplished in the stress of war; Equally amazing miracles in the sobering peace times may be expected-Stars and Stripes.

WORK, AMERICA, WORK!

One hundred million Americans are
singing the "Anvil Chorus. Put your
ear to the ground and you will hear
it plainly. The first stanza repeated
three times is: 1--WE Want More
Wagesi" About ten million people
are singing this stanza. Then comes
another line, sung mostly by profess
sional leaders of organized labor:
eve Want Shorter Hoursi" Then
comes a great booming swell of
sound from the united voices of hun
dred million people giving back the
responsive Want Lower Prices!"
And then comes one single voice-the
sad soprano voice of the war-torn
world-"We Need More Production"
This is the key note of the present
situation: More Production, and I'M
til the people of the American nation
buckle down to the task and produce
enough of every commodity to supply
the demand, and little more, until
then the present abnormal conditions
will prevail, ard will grow better or
worse just as production rises and
falls. Earning. ones living by the
Sweat of the brow" is just as true
now as in any age, and he who elects
not to work with hands or brain or
both, will have nothing to show at the
end of life except the memory of Ieis-
ure time. Wealth cannot be wished
into being. 1t is the product of labor,
and that only. Work, America, work
and save, and normal conditions will

AT age Of SIXTY-FOUR
GAINS 20 POUNDS
MRS. L. e. SOUTTER FEELS LIKE
A DIFFERENT WOMAN SINCE
TANLAC BUILT HER UP

81 have actually gained twenty
pounds and that certainly seems re-
markable for one of my age, as | am
now sixty-four," said Mrs. L. z. Sout-
ter, residing at 1866 East 18th street,
DesMoines, Iowa, in relating her ex-
perience with Tanlac, recently.
81 had suffered so long and so Sc
verely," she continued, "that / never
expected to get well. In fact my stom-
ach, liver and kidneys commenced
bothering me and since that time /
have suffered almost beyond endur-
ance. Finally | got in such a bad fix
that could hardly eat anything and
the pains in my stomach and back
were so intense that / could not get
any sleep or rest No treatment or
medicine helped me and life had be-
come a burden.
"At last I got Tanlac on the advice
of friend and it has been a godsend
to me, for my troubles have been over
come and / am feeling like an entire
ly different person. Why, before |
took Tanlac / was unable to go any
place, couldn't even walk across the
street, but since taking this medicine
have been on visit TO South Dako-
ia. | have just returned home, and
nearly all of today | have been down
town shopping. | am eating just any
thing / want and never have a pain or
an uncomfortable feeling afterwards.
My liver and kidneys never bother me
any more, either, and as / said, / have
actually gained twenty pounds in
weight. | am feeling just fine now,
but if it had not been for Tanlac /
would still be sick woman. So |
feel like l ought to make a statement
for the benefit of others who are try
ing to find relief"
Here is another instance of the won
derful reconstructive powers of Tan
lac. Mrs. Soutter is only one of the
many thousands who have taken it
with the same remarkable results.
Tanlac proved of great benefit to her
because it contains certain medicinal
properties which enrich inc blood and
promote a healthy appetite for nour-
ishing food. Tanlac has been very
successful in overcoming nervousness
and sleeplessness, not from a quieting
effect on the nerves, for it has no such
effect, but by Strengthening the nerves
and bringing back the normal state
of health through its effect on the APP
petite and nutrition of the body.
Tanlac is sold in Viroqua by G. F.
Dahl, in Genoa by Gus Zabolio Co., in
LaFarge by Jos. Weisner.

them have brought that condition on
themselves by the use of mineral wat

too much water out OF the system and

Farmers everywhere are strong for
the new u. S. Bootee-a water-tight,
lace rubber shoe that is just the
thing for everyday service around
the farm.
1t was designed especially for
miners, who must have a waterproof
shoe that will not tire their feet. So
the u. S. Bootee was made to with
stand the toughest wear absolutely
water-tight-and yet light and COM
Portable.
Today it's fast becoming popular
all over the country-with farmers
and all men who have to work much
out-of-doors. Worn right over your
sock ike an ordinary shoe, the u. s.
Boo.ee gives perfect protection always
whatever job you have on hand.

of his superiority Is small. He can
make better garments against cold
than our tailors and furriers: he can
thrive in barren wastes where a New
Engiander would starye.
But of some Of his superiority the
moral value is great. He has devel.
oped individual quality further than

his fellows. kinder to his wife. gentIer
to his child. more reticent about the
faults of his neighbor than any but
