Tho Value of a Smile,

It Is not many words but much low
ing that we need in order to find
health, happiness and success. Study
the art of smiling; the honey of q
smile catches more hearts than the
pepper of a sheer. or the vinegar OF a
frown. Smile, and keep on smiling.

Sunset Magazine for January.


The two Expositions of the Pa
citic Coast and the big, vital ques-
tions concerning the United States
and arising from the world war
dominate the contents of Sunset
Magazines January issue. San
Francisco's great Exposition is
beautifully described by Herman
Whitaker in the article entitled
"a City of the Sum-" illustrated
with reproductions of color photo
graphs taken by the auto,chrome
process and with impressive draw
ings by a number of we'll known
artists. Rufus Steele tells enter
tainingly of the preparations made
by the transportation companies
to handle the heavy Exposition
traffic on land and sea. A series
of full page photographs repro
duced in tint give marvellous pic
ture of the Greater Exposition
the entire Pacific Coast country,
which will be as great factor in
drawing the crowds from the East
during 1915 as the Expositions
themselves.

Best Couch Msdleins for Children

Pittsburg one Of my children had q
hard cold and coughed dreadfully Upon
the advice of druggist I purchased 4
bottle Of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
and it benefited him at once. I find it
the best cough medicine for children

The war in Europe is proving a
big boon to postal savings In this
country. From the very day hostili-
ties opened across the seas postal
savings receipts began to increase by
leaps and bounds and Withdrawals
fell off, a result quite contrary to
the prediction Of many well-inform-
ed persons who in their imagina-
tion, saw lines Of feverish depositors
at postoffice pay windows anxious
to again return their savings to the
bootleg and body-belt repositories
whence they came before intrusted
to Uncle Sam. But the forecasters
failed to reckon on the absolute con-
fidence of the American citizen, re-
gardless of the flag that first met
his eyes, in the ability and purpose
of the government to crary out its
obligations. not only among the ma
tions OF the earth, but with the
humblest citizen of our land.
Two important results have fol-
lowed; thousands of people, largely
of foreign birth, accustomed to send
their savings abroad, are now pat
rons of our postal asvings system;
and enormous sums of actual cash
have been released for commercial
uses among our people at a time
when the need for every available
dollar is pressing.
The growth of postal savings in
the United States has been steady
and the system has filled an pimort-
ant gap between the tin-can depos-
itory andt he factory paymaster. On
July 1, when affairs were running
smoothly here and abroad and the
transmission of money across the
Atlantis was safe and expeditions,
there was approximately $4,000 900
of postal savings standing to the
credit of about 3S8.000 depositors.
Since then over S10.000,000 of de-
posits have been added and the num-
ber of depositors has increased enor-
mously. This unprecedented gain is
the more striking when 1t is con-
sidered that the net gain In the last
three months is larger than the gain
for the entire fiscal year 1914.
Scores of offices have done more
postal savings business since the war
has been going on than was done by
them during the previous existence
of the service. The increases are
confined to no special localities, but
have been felt in every nook and cor
ner of the country. New York City
alone made gain In September of
more than million, while Brooklyn
showed relatively big increase.
Chicago reported a larger gain in
the past three months than for the
previous twelve months. More than
1000 new accounts were opened
during the period, bringing the num-
of deDositors in that city up to over
$1,000. Meridian postoffice did
more postal savings business in No
vember than for the previous seven
months.
The unexpected increase in pos
stal savings business brought up
many new and interesting problems
which ahve called for the careful
personal consideration of Postmaster
General Burleson and Governor
Dockery, third assistant postmaster
general. But their task has been
lightened somewhat by the prompt
ness of depository banks in furnish
ing additional security to meet the
abnormal deposits. A number of the
very largest banks in the country,
which have heretofore declined to
qualify as repositories for postal
savings funds, are now among the
eager applicants for them.

PIERZ

Pierz Journal (l9): Unmistakable
signs of beaver have been discovered
along the shores of Skunk river. Wal
ter Litke, living on the old Johr Kra-
mer place, found a poplar tree felled
across Skunk river a short distance
from the bridge north of his place.
The tree, about six inches in diameter,
was gnawed off about a foot from the
ground. Those who have seen the
work Of beavers, and claim to have
reason to know, say that the teeth
marks on the tree were made py these
busy rodents. Judging from the signs,
Walter thinks there must be a colony
of four or FIVE in his neighborhood.
How these animals came here is hard
to say. Several years ago the govern
