When one lends to Liberty he
takes the world for security.
Every Liberty Bond sold will
shorten the war and save lives.
Licking the platter clean be
comes a part of the regular daily
duty. _
Uncle Sam's warriors have a fine
army of feminine cousins to knit
for them.
Many real patriots say nothing
but subscribe to the new Liberty
Loan bond.
Living at the foot of a live volca
no would prove tame sport to some
married men.
Quite often it turns out that in
th 3 long run things that are given
y j cost you the most.
Women are more charitable than
i: n. What man could ever learn
t. love a bald-headed woman.
This is the war that must be set
tv l right and for all time. Buy a
Li erty Loan Bond and help settle
it ' ght. _ _
We wouldn't care s much about
our income being taxed if we
w- ren't already taxed to keep with
in that income.
If twice as many crimes report
ed are committed by single men as
by married men, a lot of wives are
not telling all they know.
With reference to the conserva
tion of food stuff during the war, it
rnikes no material difference
whether your corn crib or grocery
store is burned by an alien enemy
cr through your own carelessness
or neglect. The result is the same.
Th .• food stuff, that money cannot
replace, is gone.
The man who owns his home is
in a position that the renter can
mver reach. The renter usually
finds that his rent is too high, or he
is dissatisfied for some reason, and
is restless, and discontentment
stales before him. He wants to
move. He does not take the same
interest in municipal affairs, in his
c /.M affairs, nor is he as solicitous
to h.s neighbors, as the man who
owns his home.

A Complete Job.
They were a very tired battalion and
a very Cockney battalion, and when
they spoke to the members of the bat
talion who had met them their speech
was rich with expletives.
Said a sympathizer of the other bat
talion :
“Yc* look jolly tired, m*te. ’Ave
yer bln far?”
The spokesman of the weary ones
answered shortly and sweetly:
"Bin fer! Why, we’ve walked over
nearly the ’ole o’ France, and wot we
iln’t walked over we’ve got in our sand
bags.”—Tit-Bits.

You’ve enjoyed it at restaurants and ether places—now you want
your family and your guests to join you in the same pleasure.
That’s one of the joys of serving Bevo — to hear your guests
say how good it is — then to listen to their arguments as to just
what it is. If they haven’t seen the bottle they’il all agree that
it is something else — if they have seen the bottle each will have
a different explanation for its goodnccs.
Bevo is nutritive — pure through pasteurization and steriliza
tion— non-intoxicating, wholesome and thoroughly refreshing.
Note — Bevo should be served cold.
Get Bevo at inns, restaurants, groceries, department and drug stores, picnic
grounds, baseball parks, soda fountains, dining cair, steamships, and other
filaces where refreshing beverages are sold. Guard against substitutes—
iave the bottle opened in front of you.
Bevo is sold in bottles only—and is bottled exclusively by
FORESTS SURVIVE THE AGES
Flora of Australia Different From
That of All Other Countries
in the World.
One readily understands why the
Australian loves his trees. The groves
i>C giant eucalyptus form pictures never
forgotten, and the scent of the wattle
brings a homesick feeling like the smell
of sage to the Westerner.
The flora is not only beautiful, It Is
unique and has no counterpart in other
lands, observes the National Geo
graphic Magazine. Of the 10,000
species of plants most of them are
purely Australian and are unknown
even in New Zealand. The general
Impression one gets of Australian for
ests is their total unlikeliness to any
thing seen elsewhere. The great for
ests of timber trees are not damp and
shaded and ail of one species, but are
well lighted and filled with other for
ests of shorter trees; in places the
woods consist of large, widely spaced
trees, surrounded only by hunch grass,
and even In areas where wnter is not to
be found on the surface for hundreds
of square miles true forests of low
trees are present.
Forms which may be recognized as
tulip, lily, honeysuckle und fern take
on a surprising aspect. They are not
garden flowers, but trees, and the land
scape of which they form a part re
minds one of the hypothetical period
antedating our own millions of years.
The trees are indeed those of a by
gone age. In America and Europe
shadowy forms of fossil leaves of
strange plunt species are gathered front
the rocks and studied with interest:
In Australia many of these ancient
trees are living. The impression thal
one Is looking ut a landscape whicl
has forever disappeared from othei
parts of the world is so vivid that th«
elms and maples and oaks in some ol
the city streets strike a jarring note
The transition from Jurassic to moderr
times Is painfully abrupt.
Hold to Your Dreams.
Isn’t it possible that the only thing
which makes it possible for us to per
form the daily drudgeries of life is the
hope for better things which blooms it
our hearts?
Hope is romance? Ambition is ro
mance! All the fine, true inspirations
of life are romantic. Romance leads
to achievement, unless it blossoms ir
the mind of a lazy, shiftless creature
who is Incapable of action. The mac
who leads a forlorn hope Is romantic
The hero who gives his life fighting t
dread disease to which he succumbs
but against which he has insured hu
inanity, Is romantic. Romance is the
thing which makes it worth while foi
men to sacrifice material comforts anc
die on strange Helds of honor.
In a materialistic world where w<
have to deal with the facts of earninj
our flyings aqd fighting for plac^ am
position, the thing which lifts us above
blind Instinct Is romance. Cherish
your dreams, for they give you a
glimpse of beauty and make you
willing to struggle over cruel moun
tains and harsh plains to the pot of
gold at the rainbow’s end. Dreams
give respite from dreary reality and
urge on to all that Is big and line.—
Exchange.
Courtesy in the Home.
Why should dally life together de
stroy the mutual consideration and
courtesy u man and woman show be
fore marriage, which they would con
tinue as mere friends? If husband
and wife, no matter how much they
love each other, no matter at what
close range they live, would strive to
grant each other the treatment which
ordinary good breeding exacts, would
respect one another as individuals, not
as household furniture, would foster
mutual forbearance and ordinary po
liteness In “little things,” then the
divorce courts would be cheated, chil
dren would suffer fewer violations of
their inalienable rights to home and
harmony and there would be less
cynical complaint of “something rot
ten in the state of matrimony.”—Mary
E. Walter, In the Chicago News.
Fascination in Alaskan Life.
There is a fascination about Alas
kan life, which, despite its privations,
! makes men louth to leave and eager to
| return. There is no fear of starva
tion nor even of destitution. The
rivers and woods supply salmon and
the venison of moose and caribou suf
ficient to meet the wants of all. A hole
in the ground makes a refrigerator
1 which will keep ment fresh through
I out the hottest summers, without re
course to pemmlcan. And, if a white
man is too lazy to hunt or fish him
self, he can always obtain a living
from a squaw and a flshwheel. As
soon as suitable means of transporta
tion exist, the country should be more
crowded with visitors than was Switz
erland before the war, and must also
enjoy business prosperity.

The Scandinavian Race.
The term “Scandinavians” Is nol
confined to the Norwegians. The Nor
wegians are indeed Scandinavians
but so also are the Swedes, Danes and
Icelanders. For that matter, the Ger
mans, English and Americans of Eng
lish stock are also descendants of the
Scandinavian stock, since it is more
than probable that Germany was orig
inally peopled from the land of tht
Northmen, und It is from the Nortt
Germuu stock thut the so-called Anglo
Saxon comes.
