Pleasing reports came Saturday from the
Dr. M. P. Ravenel of the University reports the water
from the points “safe and of excellent quality,” and while some of the wells
show impurities, making their “safety doubtful,” yet the sample from the
faucet, which was the only one that had been treated with disinfectants, is
pronounced by the same authority “safe and of excellent quality.”
Therefore, our citizens may feel safe in using the
water.
RED CROSS KNIGHT
I will be a Red Cross Knight!
I will wear the sign!
I will help the godly fight
With the strength that’s mine!
Some may blow the stirring fife,
Some may win a sword,
Some may give a precious life
Fighting for the Lord.
But at home my task is plain --
Not the field for me.
Yet with heart and hand and brain
Soldier I may be!
I may knit and sew and fold;
I may serve and give
Pennies, dollars, notes or gold
That our boys might live.
Take the cross and lend a hand
In the goodly fight.
Children of a gallant land,
Each a Red Cross Knight.

THE SELECTIVE DRAFT
The people of this county are almost a unit, we
believe, in accepting the plan of a conscription of soldiers for the present
war as the best that could be devised.
We believe, too, that the officials in charge of the drawing are doing
their utmost to have it conducted with absolute fairness. Moreover, we are convinced that great care
has been exercised in the selection of the exemption boards, but at the same
time it goes without saying that some persons will make desperate efforts to
evade the draft; indeed, it is reported that something has been done in this
line in this township already, but all patriotic citizens should cooperate to
the end that equal justice shall be done to all with no respect of persons.

The following article is clipped from an article in
the Chillicothe Constitution commenting on the re-appointment of Miss
Franklin Wilson as superintendent of the Industrial Home for Girls in
Chillicothe, this much being said of Miss Elizabeth Wilkinson formerly of
Brookfield:
“Miss Wilkinson, the assistant superintendent, is
equally as pleasant and accommodating.
She is greatly interested in her work and realizes fully the problems
which daily arise in an institution of that character.”
That she fully appreciates the confidence and
unanimous support extended by those outside the institution, can be drawn from
a remark, her first after extending a cordial greeting.
“’We certainly do appreciate the hearty cooperation
extended on all hands. It is a most
inspiring work and we are trying hard to make conditions always pleasant and at
the same time maintain strict obedience and discipline.’
“An appropriate motto which occupies a prominent place
in the superintendent’s office drew our attention. It well illustrates the manner in which the
Home is being governed under Miss Wilson’s administration:
“’Get your happiness out of your work or you will
never know what happiness is.’”

examinations held in this city last summer.

Shelton of this city yesterday afternoon saved a young man for the United

recruiting station yesterday. He failed
to pass on his right ear, but as he had passed the Army examination
successfully when he was 17 years old, James Donnelly, who is in charge of the
Navy recruitment station in the Federal building, took him to Dr. Shelton who
very kindly examined and washed the ear, after which the boy was in good shape.

DIET, EXERCISE OR DEATH
An eminent medical authority writes that most of our
city folk die of a thickening of the arteries or of kidney disease. The kidneys become clogged and do not filter
the poisons from the blood, and one trouble follows another; high blood
pressure damages the heart, arteries and kidneys. Usually its danger signals are backache, pain
here or there, swollen feet or ankles, rheumatic twinges or spots appearing
before the eyes.
The very best remedy is this: eat meat but once a day, or not at all. Plenty of outdoor exercise, and drink pure
water frequently. Before meals, take a
little Anuric, the great uric acid neutralizer that is easily obtained at the
drug store. When you have dizziness,
chills or sweating, worry or dragging pains in back, try this wonderful enemy
to uric acid, which Dr. Pierce of

There is more Catarrh in this section of the country
than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years, was
supposed to be incurable. For a great
many years, doctors pronounced it a local disease and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it
incurable. Science has proven catarrh to
be a constitutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional
treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure,

“The first symptom of kidney trouble in my case was
the irregularity of my kidneys,” says Mrs. Hubbard. “My back was lame and ached and felt sore if
I did a hard day’s work. I had headaches
and dizzy spells. I spent lots of money
trying to get rid of this trouble, but didn’t find relief until I took Doan’s
Kidney Pills. After using one box, I
felt so much better; the headaches left me, so did the dizzy spells and my
kidneys acted regularly.” Statement
given February 15, 1913.
On May 27, 1916, Mrs. Hubbard said, “I can recommend
Doan’s Kidney Pills as highly as ever. I
haven’t needed any lately, but the help they have given me in the past has
given me the greatest confidence in them.”
Price 60 cents at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for kidney remedy -- get
Doan’s Kidney Pills -- the same that Mrs. Hubbard had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfgrs.,
