A woman who appears charming
in the kitchen would grace any po
sition.
It is better to be criticised for
what you do do than for what you
don’t do. _
Things you can’t explain are
generally none of your business
anyway. _
Take care of the tomorows; the
yesterdays will take care of them
selves. __
The United States has no more
dependable and faithful ally than
the Republic of Cuba.
When the mails shall be carried
bv aeroplanes perhaps the size of
the Sunday newspapers will be re
duced. _
The Kaiser’s aunt married her
doctor and lived to be 84. That
ought to make young medicos more
popular than ever.
The fact that money cannot buy
happiness is brought home to the
man who has the price of a ton of
coal, but is unable to secure the
coal.
This is a government of the peo- j
pie, by the people and for the peo
ple, and it absolutely must be
unanimously supported.
When Mr. Wilson dictates the
peace terms, do you realize that he
will have more power than any
mtm in this world has ever had?
And do you realize why? Because
the people are willing.
Glasses and masses have no
rights in a democracy that are not
subordinate to the rights of the
consumers, who constitute, accord
ing to the best figures obtainable,
just 100 per cent of the world's
population.
Buy thrift stamps with every
spare quarter and war saving cer
tificate with every extra $4.00 you
can save. By so doing you will be
protecting yourself and aiding your
government. Americans must
learn to be economical and now is
a good time to start.
The savings deposits of England
are 2,'2 times more today than when
war started and Americans must
learn the same lesson or probably
suffer after the war for having
failed to do so. Cut out buying
useless Christmas presents this
vear and buy war savings certifi
cates for each of your children to
start them in the great lesson of
economy.

Influenza ,wcl„Wto
“ No one who has not had Influenza can realize the suffering
it causes or how it deflea treatment I know of nothing that will
give such prompt relief as Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, for
when it is taken the pain in the chest disappears, the fever sub
sides and the whole body becomes more comfortable.
Then again, the after effects of Influenza are often even more
distressing than the disease itself, but they can be avoided if
you use
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
Though the greatest danger from this disease is Pneumonia,
I have never known a single case of Influenza to result in it when
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy was freely given. The persistent
cough that frequently follows Influenza can be relieved by
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, and should not be allowed to
run on until it becomes troublesome.”
