AMERICAN LEGION NOTES

Don't forget the meeting this week
on Friday night at the Band Hall. The
post commander and adjutant will
give you an account of their trip to
the state convention at Appleton. and
plans will be discussed concerning Me-
mortal Day and Fourth of July activ-
tiles. 1t promises to be a meeting
which will take us into the wee sma'
hours of the night. but every member
will be glad he came.
From all appearances It almost
seems a fact that the bonus bill will
be passed, which reminds us of the re-
turned soldier who said: .'When the
prodieal son returned, they killed The
fatted calf; when the soldier son came
home they shot the bull"
National Commander MacNider has
been in Washington for the past two
weeks waiting for an audience with
the president. He finally got one,and
also the assurance that the returned
soldier viii be taken care of. 1t all
goes to show that the man who wears
a legion button is being represented
by their national commander in mat
ters which are to his benefit.
Our adiutant received a letter from
Comrade G. V. Fitch at Readstown
IN WHICH ne SalO+ 4 am Senuinc YOU
three new members. This looks very
small but there will be more coming as
have time TO sign them up. This has
been busy time for me, and have
not gotten as far with this work as I
have wanted to. | have seen most all
the boys and they are willing to come
into the Viroqua Post and | assure you
that / will send them in along as
have time to. There will be 25 to 80
from here. II can do any good to
you or the Post, fire away and will do
my best.
That is the kind of spirit to have,
and best wishes to Comrade Fitch and
the Readstown boys. We want them
all with us, and believe that they will
not be sorry for their utilization with
us. We want the fellows from Chase
burg, Coon Valley. Westby, Viola and
LaFarge to feel the same as the Reads
town boys. II they want 10 get in a
real live Post, Post which is planning
on bigger things, such as an exclusive
building, etc, now is the time to come
in. The most goodcan be accomplished
by the Legion if all pull together.

FARMER WAREHOUSE OPEN

The tobacco meeting at the court
house last Saturday afternoon was a
very enthusiastic affair. About 400
tobacco growers packed the court
room, and about S00,000 pounds Of to-
bacco was pledged. Since the meet
ing this has been increased TO nearly
1000 pounds.
The association secured the old Es-
peseth warehouse, and this morning
sorting was commenced, with Jack
Watson as manager and Nicholi Nell
son as bookkeeper. Both are compe-
tent men. well qualified to take care Of
their respective duties.
The new warehouse starts with a
small crew but hopes to increase il to
full strength in few days. From
present indications, the seasons run
will exceed three months.

Ystai72HydrauIic Engineer
Lives TO Tell Wonderful Story
HOW IT HAPPENED

n. L. Wilson, the well known Hy-
draulic Engineer who had charge OF the
big water-power job. telling his wonder
ful experience, says:
Eleven years ago I was in 4 hospi-
tai for seven weeks, at a cost of over
two hundred dollars. For two years I
suffered torments, and winter before
last ! was laid up six weeks under doc
tors care. Truly. in the last twelve

again.
But now I am a new man. am a
better man than l was twelve years ago.

Of my head. ! could do that at 80, now
! am -"
Mr.. Wilson is only one Of thousands
who suffered for years, owing to the
general belief In the old, false theory
that Uric Acid" causes Rheumatism.
This erroneous belief induced him and
legions Of unfortunate men and women
to take wrong treatments. You might

and body. Many physicians now know
that Uric Acid never did and never will
cause Rheumatism: that It is natural
and necessary constituent of the blood ;
lnaL IL is IOunQ IN every newborn DdOe,
and without IL We cannot live!
II took Mr.. Wilson twelve years to
find out this truth. He learned how to
get rid of the true cause Of his Rheuma-
tism, and recover his strength from
THE Inner Mysteries" a remarkable
book that IL now being distributed free
by an authority who devoted over TWEEN
ty years to the scientific study. expert
mentation and research Of this disease.
And Mr.. Wilson says: Now / know.

throwing II into the fire. But something
prompted me to look It over-Thank

Never had Nadia felt less In the
mood to be entertained by this unc-

herself to accept the invitation.
Theed took her to an ADEQUATE hu,

read the menu to her. lingering over

accepted his suggestion that the or

She wondered suddenly whether

Although fall days are now upon

before heavy and penetrating frosts
set In.
In the first place, the rush to
complete buildings for October
leases is over; builders are less
busy; there are more to select from,
and their bids show the effect of
competition. They also are able to
give contracts more individual at
tention. 1t is quite probable that
the construction will take less time
than II would in the spring or early
summer when contractors are usu.
ally overwhelmed with orders. In
stead OF scattering their forces on
a great many houses (because Of
tae clamor for action) they can con-
centrate a full quota of men on each
Job. give each closer supervision.
and expedite the work.
Then again, when work In slack,
they are more inclined to take or
ders for new buildings at a lower
figure, in order to keep the select
men in their organization together

Building should not be left till
next year with the expectation that
prices Of building materials will be
lower. On the contrary. the boost
