SAVINGS CLUB ON BOOM
DoIIar-a-Week Plan for Buying
Uncle Sans Securities
Gains Big Roadway.

The DOlIar-a- Week Government Saw
ings club has become the most uniyer-
sal organization in the United States.
It's members range from Maine to Calls
fornia and every day brings new
strength to it. The Seventh Federal
Reserve district was one of the first
Of the twelve Federal Reserve districts
to get off to flying start in the or
ganizatiOn of Dollar-a- Week clubs, and
now it ranks high in the list of dis
tricts
The Dollar-a- Week club is taking
firm root in industrial plants and
stores. Workers group themselves to-
gether and make regular purchases
every week of the new 81 Treasury
Savings Stamps. Membership require
ment in a club calls only for the pur-
chase of one Of the stamps every week.
Four of these ST Stamps, with a few
additional cents, can be exchanged for
a So Government Savings Stamp, or
twenty Of them for a $25 Treasury
Savings Certificate, which bears the
rate Of 4 per cent interest compound
ed quarterly, if held till maturity
These S25 Certificates are hort-term,
rock-bound, absolutely safe, virtually
tax-free, easily redeemable in case of
need, and they never depreciate, but
always are worth more than was paid
for them.
No applicant for membership in
Dollar-a-Week club is ever BLACK
baIled." Every member becomes rich
er for joining. Any postmaster can
"initiate" a new member, and anyone
can join at any organization or indus
try where government savings securi-
ties are sold.

has been lost to Americans through

would have gone into the channels Of

Sunday, August 7th, fans are in for
big afternoon of baseball. Starting
at 100 the locals will play double
header on the home grounds. Monico
comes first. That team has been play
ing great ball this year They beat
the Flambeau Indians, the only team
that has trimmed Eagle SO far. Their
lineup is usually strengthened with
a bunch of Amigo men, so we look for
a fast game when the two teams meet.
Following that game we clash with the
Sunset Farm team. That will be
another real game. Manager Kinney
is confident his team can take home
the big end Of the score. That re-
mains to be seen, but it is going to
be big game because Kinney always
lines up fast bunch and his aggre-
cation this year is no exception.

How indians Have Changed.

Tines have certainly changed. Il
wasn't so many years ago that when
crowd OF Sioux Indians got together
OF DIN afternoon there was usually a
considerable amount OF battle, murder
and sudden death in the air. Accord.
ing to the story hooks, the proceed
ings usually opened WIN frewater and
scalpings, and closed with an enter.
tainment in which a paleface tied 70
stake was the chief performer.
But nowadays things are different.
When the Sioux Indians in Minnesota
get together IL is TO listen TO public
health lectures delivered in their own
language, and frequently by members
Of their own tribe. There is a, great
deal Of tuberculosis among These In
dams, and the American Red Cross is
endeavoring by means of these lee
lures 10 educate them in preventive
measures against the disease. An old
chief, Two Hawks, is an eloquent lee
turer for the Red Cross.

Those are the words of man hold

and important matters requiring spe
cial intelligence and knowledge.
Those who want relief from pain
may as we'll follow his experience and
get relief.
The manufacturers are content 10
explain that Mysterious Pain Ease
was originated from the recipe or for
mula Of popular doctor in Scotland
1t relieved pain SO quickly people
thought there was something myster
ious about It so the liniment "Myster
ious Pain Ease" was really christened
by grateful sufferers who had found re-
lief from pain.
The manufacturers are very modest
in their claims as they know that
every user will recommend Mysterious
Pain Ease to others.
People recommend it for the pain Of
many different troubles like neuritis
sciatica, muscle cramps, chilblainc,
pains or rheumatism, neuralgia. sprains

shoulders chest and back muscles are
in pain and pain arising anywhere
from inflammation.

TRUCK WAS FIRST TROLLEY"
How the Name, Now in UnversaIsuse,
Came to Be Applied to Electrical
Apparatus.

Moss persons who use the word
trolley" do not know the origin of
this term or why this name was given
to the apparatus by which the cleo
trieity is conveyed from an overhead
wire
Seventy years ago the word was
used to- designate "a form Of truck
which can be tilted, for carrying rail-
road materials or the like" This Is
the only definition of the word In a
dictionary Of the edition OF 1913.
In an edition of 1892 three other
definitions are added: /. "a narrow
cart that is pushed by hand or drawn
10y an animal" 1t is noted that this
meaning of the word is in use in Eng
land, not in the United States. .. "a
truck from which the load is suspend
ed on some kinds of cranes" This
meaning is technical and employed
only in speaking OF machinery. 3.
Electric railway. A truck which
travels along the fixed conductors, and
forms means OF connection between
them and railway car"
1t is easy to see how the primitive
form of the electric trolley, which
travels upon the wires, came to re.
ceiye IFS name from its resemblance
to other types OF trolley; and the
name, having been immediately given
to this primitive form, was naturally
retained when the method Of connec'
ton was changed from little truck
moving on q wire TO mast having at
its end a wheel pressing on the lower
surface of the wlre.-PhIadelphia In
