the conveniences of modern hotel, at

THERE'S DEATH IN THE POT"
A Celebrated Lesdss Dseter Used ths Absvs
to Enphssire the Danger Of 0verestiss.
Worse Thas 0vereatias 10 Failure
to Eliminate Waste

Nature could not devise a way to
feed and repair the body without the
production Of considerable waste
matter. But Nature provided for
the regular, thorough elimination of
such waste. To disregard her in
tention is to break a natural law.
Whether you help Nature by wise
or foolish means is left to your own
judgment. To simply force bowel
movement is unwise, unnatural and
Ineffective. You can choose harsh,
drastic, violently acting drugs or
take such without caring what their
action or effect is, or you can select
some old time-proven, trial-tested
remedy, that has been used for 70
years or more by thousands Of people
all over the world, with the result
that it has won an enyiable reputa-
ton as reliable household remedy.
Take Beecham's for example. All
the world knows Beecham's; a good
ly part of the world uses Beecham's,
has been using it for years, handing
its use down FROM father to son,
from mother to daughter, for gen
GRAFTON after generation, recommend
ing it to others. In spite of such
extensive and general use, who ever
heard complaint or criticism Of
Beecham's? That in itself is a.
powerful recommendation.
Don't take anything for granted.
Reason it out. All druggists sell
Beecham's-are glad to sell them.
Beecham's reputation has been
made by its users not by its sellers.

low market rate on Liberty bonds and
purchasing more Of the government

Every coupon clipper has the same OPP
portunity. Even the holder of $50

nounces that coupons will be accepted
as cash at the post office in payment
for treasury savings securities which
are issued in denominations of from

REQUIRE TWO 80. -
FIRE PATROLS
CHIEF ZIELSDORF TELLS
HOW $4,000 MAY
BE SAVED

The state legislature has passed a
bill which requires that cities of the
first, second and third class maintain
fire patrol for both day and night
duty. If Wausau complies with this
regulation, as it most certainly will,
it will force the addition of fourteen
firemen to the payrolls, which would
amount approximately 100000 year
at minimum. This Is a tremendous
item and Chief Zielsdorf, taking it
into consideration, makes a suggestion
that the number of department sta
tions in the city be reduced from four
to two closing the two horse truck
stations. and continuing to maintain
the two present motorized stations.
Further than this, it is suggested
that two new light motor trucks, car
rying full chemical equipment, be pur-
chased, one to be placed at each of
the two stations. These light trucks
are used particularly to answer calls
in the residential districts and save
Juggling the heavier material used for
large buildings and more serious con-
tiagrations to the scene of small CHM
ney or home fires. The light trucks
would carry all equipment needed to
extinguish small blaZes.
Through this method the city would
save somewhere near $4,000. Only
the investment of $1,000 in trucks
would be necessary and the addition of
a force of fourteen men be avoided.

ates. the age qualification for which
is fifteen years. Students in the Jun
Tor course receive in an intensive way
the work high school students have
had. including drill in all common
school branches, economics, agricul-
ture and the usual academic studies.
Strict Course
Before graduating from the institu-
ton. however, all students are obliged
to undergo a thorough and very strict,
rigid course of training in the Model
school, consisting of pupils recruited
from rural schools in towns nearby.
Here they assume as various times abb
solute responsibility and are held ac-
countable for the progress children
make in their studies, discipline, and
they are brought in contact with ev-
cry type of problem that cOnfrOnts the
rural school teacher. The Model de-
partment's efficiency, Prin. Swartz
feels. has been exhibited the past year
n that every pupil who studied under
Training school practice teachers,
passed the common schol examina-
tons with good marks. All OF the
work in the Model school is OF course
done only under the most careful SUI
pervision of experienced teachers.
Ten Months School
Few people, it seems, appreciate the
fact that the Marathon County Train
ing school is in operation ten months
out of every year, so that three year
course means actually three years and
three months, or practically the addi-
ton of a summer school course. It's
graduates receive either first or sec
ond grade teachers certificates, de-
pending upon the variety and scope of
the work they have taken. The first
class diploma entities them to the
privilege Of teaching in common
schools for five years and the certifi-
cate is renewable practically for life.
The second class certificate covers a
period of three years and may be re-
newed.

ENROLMENT OF WAUSAU
LANDS FOR CAMPS OF
.sY" is LARGE

f. A. Hathaway, associate state sec
rotary, and w. H. Wones, state boys
work secretary of the Y. M. Z. A.,
were in the city Monday. Both are
working in this part Of the state In
the interests of the Y. M. G. A. sum-
mer camps which are TO be opened
shortly at Manitowish, Phantom Lake,
and at Sturgeon Bay. The camp at
Manitowish is to be opened June rs,
and the enrolment has already
reached a figure exceeding 1870. Wau-
sau leads all the cities of the state,
even Milwaukee, in the number or en-
rollments, the total here being six
teen. Those who have signed up are
Robert Jones, Howard Hooper, VIM.
Laut, Hilmar Hanson, Leonard BIS
sell, Herman F'lieth, Frank Charter,
George Landon, Owen Held, Richard
Stone, |. Fosnaugh, Mark Belanger,
Orville Belanger, Maxwell Boyce. G..
s. Snyder will go as leader OF the
boys from here and w. T. Mock VIII
go for the last period, when the boys
of the Hi-Y class will be at the lake.
Mr. Wones, who has charge OF the
Manitowish camp expects to make
Wausau his headquarters for supplies,
some of the groceries and other nee
essaries having been purchased here
already.
Cherry Pickers
The Cherry Pickers' camp at Stur-
geon Bay appeals to great many OF
the boys who wish to earn little
money in addition to having a good
time. The owners of the cherry or
chards in the Sturgeon Bay district
have provided camp quarters and
equipment for the boys, although the
camp is under the direction of the
state Y. M. G. A. This camp is to open
about July S, although the exact date
will depend on the crop. The camp
director will mail to each boy who
has signed up a red letter" giving
the date on which he is expected to
report, and also the equipment he
should bring along.
The popularity of this camp is indi-
Gated by the fact that 1t is expected
that 1000 boys will take advantage of
it's opportunities this year. e. w.
Brandenburg, formerly boys secre-
tary at Wausau, will be camp direc-
tor, and plans have been made to as
sure this season being the best ever.
Paid for Work.
The boys are paid two and quar-
ter cents for every quart of cherries
picked, and from the amount credited
to them. fifty cents per day is de-
Quoted for meals and expenses. This
makes it very easy for every boy to
earn a sum in addition to his expens-
es. and besides he enjoys all the fun
OF regular camp life. Those signed

EAGLES DRILL TEAM WINS
FIRST PLACE THURSDAY
IN COMPETITION

The delegates from the local aerie
of F. 0. Eagles made splendid show
ing at the 1921 Eagles convention held
last week at Menasha, and report that
the convention was one of the biggest
and best ever held in the state. The
big feature of the week was the par
ade on Thursday, the climax of the
weeks program. 1t is estimated that
crowd of 10000 people thronged the
entire route, taking up about all of the
available room in an effort to obtain

nearly 1000 Eagles marched in uni
form. Besides the marchers there were
nine bands and many automobiles and
floats.
Exhibition
Following the parade there was an
exhibition at the park where the vari-
Gus drill teams took the field. The
Wausau team was awarded hand
some silver trophy for first place in
this exhibition drill. The local dele
gates were also awarded second prize
for exemplification of the ritual. and
a prize for the largest Lady Eagles
delegation marching in the parade
Racine carried off the first prize for
the finest and neatest uniformed
marching club with a band of twenty
pieces.
One of the important business sub
jects taken up by the convention was
to go on record as favoring the old age
pension plan for industrial workers.
This plan provides that part of the
pension is paid by the worker part by
the employer and part by the state.
1t is advanced as state measure but
is expected to receive nation wide
Eagle support. A committee was ap-
pointed to make technical investiga-
ton of the plan in this state and re-
port to the Grand Aerie at Newark
N. j., next August. ,.-
