WANT ALL HELP
FINANCE BONDS
No Disturbance of Finan-
cial Equilibrium If Every
one Pays a Little.

All employers of labor Of all kinds
are being asked to hold meetings OK
their employees for the purpose Of
encouraging them TO subscribe to the
Liberty Loan with which the gov
eminent will finance the war.
"One of the objects Of the proposed
meetings of working men and WON
en-, and this means all who work for
salaries or wages In any capacity"
said John NJ Wyatt, president of the
FL Paso chamber of commerce, is TO
make il as plain as human speech
can make it that the proposed loan
is to be made by the people rather
than by the financial interests OF the

meetings who viii explain that the

able to explain why the bonds should
be bought on the instalment plan
rather than be paid for at once by
checks against any balances the pur-
chasers of the bonds may have IN
bank at the time the purchase IS
made.
a man or woman earning 500 .
month might easily buy a 500 bond
and arrange to pay for il at the rate
OF 81 a week or 81 a month out OF
current earnings. This arrangement
for payment will not have the effect
of disturbing bank balances and viii

ness interests of the locality depend
ent upon them. The merchants and
manufacturers must be in position
to continue their respective bust
nesses and employ labor To do this
they must have money and the banks
must be in position to furnish it
The point at issue is that the
great loan which the government is
trying to float for the prosecution
Of the war with Germany must be
subscribed by the people out OF cur
rent funds rather than by the banks
out of accumulated savings. We
must do what the Germans are do
ing in the way of financing the war
Germany has floated six great loans
since the war began in 1914. and in
every instance the bonds issued have
been subscribed by the people rather
than BY the banks, which have the
burden of financing the munitions
plants. the merchants and the ship
ping interests of the country
What has been true of Germany
has been true OF every other Euro

what cause enlisted"

VOLUNTEERPLAN
AGAIN A FAILURE
Less Than 200, 900 Have En-
listed in Army and Guard
Since War Began.

Washington, D. c, May 20-The
volunteer system has again failed, as
it always fails. Recruiting figures Of
the war department are proof that
the army and national guard are far
behind with their recruiting and that
either a great stimulus is required or
that the services must be filled up
with the draft
Yesterdays regular army recruiting
brought in 22S7 men, making a total
of S7,51S since April l. Illinois was
first, with 300. and New York second.

ments These are for the regular
army and quite apart from the army
to be raised by selective CONSUMPTION.
Less Than 2OO.OOO Recruits.
Despite the fact that the nation is
at war and American regulars are IN
der orders for the fighting front IN
France. less than 100000 men have en-
listed since April 1 in the regulars
and national guard

dent may be necessary to get the

Guard in Worse Condition
The national guard is in even
worse situation. The present total
strength Of the force is less than
zoo, goo and, raised to a war footing,
as has been ordered. should total
$50, 900. In addition, the is additional
guard division plan. on which the war
department is working, would require
nearly as many more to fill necessary
additional regiments.
Recruiting Is Dwindling.
The most striking fact in connec-
ton with the recruiting rate for the
regulars, officers say, is that even
the announcement that Gen. Pe-sh'ES
would lead a division to France with
out delay. failed utterly to stimulate
enlistment. The daily average re-
cruiting has dwindled steadily.
II voluntary enlistment falls de-
spite the recruiting campaigns thal
are in prospect, the only recourse
will be TO fill up the regulars and
national guard with men selected Tor

A STRANGE FACT
ABOUT CATHARTICS
Evidence Given by Louisiana Lady
Describes How Some Cathar-
he Drugs Do Not
Always Act.

One of the disadvantages in the use
Of many laxative and cathartic rene
dies is the fact that the system seems,
AFTER awhile, to become accustomed
to their use, when taken for a con-
siderable length Of time Thedford's
Black-Draught does not seem to pos
sess this drawback, to Judge from
many letters written US by users.
One Of these came from Mrs. CeeiIe
Blanchard, Of Crosse Tete. La, who
writes: 7 cannot express my thanks
for the good your Black-Draught has
done for me. I have been a sufferer
Of constipation for years. since my
baby was born, and left me with this
complaints I have tried so many
other remedies. but (they) would act
awhile, and it seemed as IL they
would get used to me; would not do
any more good: had to change again.
Finally. in August 1913, 1 read the
Ladies Birthday Almanac, and began
1t once using Black-Draught. gained
my health. and (am) as fine as ever.
[ will not be without Black-Draught
IS long as life lasts"
The above letter shows that Thed-
lords Black-Draught does not pos
iess the disadvantage mentioned-a
fact which users should remember
when purchasing laxative or cathar-
ie remedy for general family use
Try Thedford's Black-Draught.-
