Your attention is invited to the fact that the Army has been increased by 51 new regiments. For these regiments are needed 100,000 men who are will ing to serve their country immediate ly. You are advised that this offers to young Americans opportunities un precedented in the history of the Unit ed States Army. Many vacancies for Noncommissioned Officers will be open to every ambitious Volunteer, and will afford,him an opportunity to perfect himself in Military Training before the call to the colors of the first 500,000 untrained Americans. Do not lose this opportunity to qual ify yourself as an instructor of this great Army—ENLIST NOW. You will be accepted at your nearest Army Re cruiting Station. Give your home town credit for your voluntary enlistment if there is no Army office in your town, apply to your postmaster If your fav orite branch of service is filled up do not back down—show your sterling pa triotism and enlist in the branch that is open. Uncle Sam needs AT ONCE volunteers to fill newly organized reg iments, and it becomes your duty as a good American to enlist in the branch in which you are needed most. Don't be too choicy in time of war— you can best show your patriotism by VOLUNTEERING FOR ANY BRANCH OF TH E ARMY. Enlistments now are for the WAR ONLY, and the pay is from $30 per month, up, including the regular allow ances. In order that southern Minnesota furnish its full quota for the Regular Army, it is necessary that 1220 men volunteer their services by June 30, 1917. If you cannot enlist yourself, assist by encouraging your friends to enlist. MINNESOTA HAS NEVER FAIL ED—DON'T LET HER FAIL NOW, IN THIS GREAT FIGHT FOR DEMOC RACY. N.

There are scores of people who drag out a miserable existence without real izing the cause of their suffering. Day after day they are racked with back ache and headache suffer from nerv ousness, dizziness, weakness, languor and depression. Perhaps the kidneys have fallen behind in their work of filtering the blood and that may be the root of the trouble. Look to your kid neys—assist them in their work—give them the help they need. You can use no more highly recommended remedy than Doan's Kidney Pills. Below is grateful testimony from a sufferer in this locality. Mrs. Andrew Silverberg, Litchfield, Minn., says: "I had a dull ache across ray, loins and my back was so lame and sore that it hurt me to bend over. I tried everything to relieve the misery, but failed until I took Doan's Kidney Pills. They not only brought relief, but made my kidneys normal and took away all signs of the trouble. When I have taken cold or have worked hard since, I have felt a touch of backache, but a few doses of Doan's Kidney Pills have always cured the attack. 1 know of no other kidney medicine that could take the place of Doan's Kidney Pills. Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't sim ply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Silverberg uses. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y. (Paid advertisement.)

The First Minnesota Infantry Is making its final call for men. It wants real men, sound of body and limb—men who are willing and anxious to fight for America. The First Minnesota Infantry is on the last lap of its campaign to bring the regiment to full war strength, 2,002 men. There are places still for 200 men. There is a chance for advancement in the First Minnesota Infantry that is not likely to be found in the drafted ranks. Officers for the National Guard are chosen only from the National Guard. In active war service many officers will fall. Their places will be taken by the men who have volun teered. There is every prospect that men who enlist now will be among the first hundred thousand American troops— an army which history always will re member, to fight in Europe. The fact that men have registered does not bar them from volunteering. The First Minnesota Infantry also of fers a patriotic opportunity to men not included in the draft—those between 18 and 21, and between 31 and 40, who have no one dependent on them for support. The First Minnesota Infantry al ready has an enviable name in Amer ican History. The old First Minnesota of the Civil War days won undying fame at Gettysburg. Men who know the First Minnesota Infantry of today predict it also will make a name for itself in the World War. If you want to go communicate with Lieutenant Paul D. Cook, in charge of the First Minnesota Infantry Recruit ing Officer at 410 Marquette avenue, Minneapolis, Minn. Telephone Co. and Liberty Bonds. Arrangements have been made whereby employees of the Northwest ern Telephone Exchange Company may subscribe for government bonds of the "Liberty Loan" and pay for them on monthly installments, accord ing to an announcement received by Manager John Williams. In adition to the $5,000,000 of the bonds which the Bell Telephone Sys tem has taken, it is expected that the employees of the various Companies of the System will subscribe for an equally large amount under the plan of paying for the bonds on monthly in stallments. The installment plan provides for the payment of $4 each month for ten months and $5 per month for two months on each $50 bonds for which the employee subscribes. This will enable telephone employees to pay for their bonds in one year and collect six months interest in June, 1918. This will give them a return of approxi mately 31-2 per cent interest on each installment paid. In case an employee desires at any time during the year to make all re maining payments at once and take up his bond, he will be permitted to do so. Youngquist-Knock. Prof. Walter R.
