are less than five million subscribers
to the first bond issue, it will be
failure as a test of patriotism.
But if five million persons sub
scribe the average of the subscrip-
tons will be $500. 1t is obvious,
therefore, that good many thou
sands of people must buy the bonds
in the small domination of $50 and
500.
The small amounts should come
out of current savings if the loan is
to attain the great success. past
savings, evidenced by credit accounts
in savings banks, should be used
only to a limited extent or, prefer
ably, not at all. The funds of say

mands on the savings banks woul1
force the liquidation of these securi-
ties and so dislocate the bond mar
ket and, of course, the money mar
ket. The loan is, therefore, to be
subscribed for out of current and fu-
ture savings.
1t is more than likely that business
will be very good if the loan is pop
ularly subscribed. The factories and
mills will be busy on all sorts of or
ders from the government. There is

Labor will be freely employed and

WHY you SHOULD
BUY A LIBERTY BOND
And BY Your Thrift Insure Your Own
Prosperity and Save the U. S.
From Disaster

There are two reasons why there
should be Liberty Bond in every
home. Either of them offers a suf-
ficient impulse for the investment.
The reasons are, first, patriotism,
and, second, Thrift.
Patriotism is the expression of ev-
cry individuals obligation to the
country which protects him and
gives him the opportunity to develop
his abilities and gain the reward OF
his efforts.
Patriotism often finds ebullient
and even hysterical expression, but
reduced to real terms it is matter
of the obligation of each man and
woman to contribute his or her share
for the common good in return for
the advantages gained from living in
well ordered society.
This obligation naturally extends
to contributing for the common de-
fence. The contribution may be an
outright gift under a general assess
ment worked out on some presumably
equitable basis. Such gifts take the
form of taxes and voluntary cOntribu
tons to numerous charities and war
organizations. The other obligation
is to lend money to the governm ent
as an ordinary business matter.
-;
stances, considered in it's relation to
individuals, is a practical application
Of the thrift idea. 1t is as much a
saving as money deposited in saw
ings bank. It draws interest at 3R
per cent; it is a safe investment If
the government is stable. If the
government is not stable then no in
vestment is safe and property rights
as we'll as property values will van
ish, as personal safety and the right
to the pursuit of happiness must dis
appear also. There is no better in
vestment than government bonds. In.
vestment in them is the duty Of
those who cannot enter the army or
the navy and is thes discharge of a
similar obligation, although it is not
regarded as heroic.
To secure two billions the govern
ment must receive an average sub
scription of $1,000 from each Of two
million persons But the average
will be much below that If there

Glass of Hot Water
Before Breakfast
a Splendid Habit
Open sluices of the system each
morning and wash away the
poisonous, stagnant matter.

Those of us who are accustomed to
feel dull and heavy when we arise;
splitting headache, stuffy from cold,
foul tongue, nasty breath, acid
stomach, lame back, can, instead,
both look and feel as fresh as a daisy
always by washing the poisons and
toxins from the body with phosphated
hot water each morning.
We should drink, before breakfast,
q glass Of real hot water with a tea
spoonful of limestone phosphate in
it to flush from the stomach, liver,
kidneys and ten yards of bowels the
previous days indigestible waste, sour
bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans
ing, sweetening and purifying the
entire alimentary tract before putting
more food into the stomach.
The action Of limestone phosphate
and hot water on an empty stomach
is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans
out all the sour lamentations, gases,
waste and acidity and gives one a
splendid appetite for breakfast and
it Is said to be but little while until
the roses begin to appear In the
cheeks. A quarter pound of limestone
phosphate will cost very little at the
drug store, but Is sufficient to make
anyone who is bothered with bilious
ness, constipation, stomach trouble or
rheumatism a real enthusiast on the
subject of internal sanitation. Try
it and you are assured that you will
look better and feel better in every
way shortly.

HA|C ROUTS GERMAN FOES
AGAIN SMASHES FRONT AND
TAKES MANY TRENCHES.
German Artillery Near Lens and
Ypres Bombardng British Line
itaian-Austrian Theater Quiet.

London, June 49, - Sir Douglas
Haig's troops have again smashed into
the German front east and northeast
of Messines and largely extended the
gains previously made in this region.
Nearly two miles Of trenches were oc-
cupied by the British and the village
Of Gaspard, east of Messines, was cap
tured. Berlin reports activity by Brit
ish cavalry east of Messines, but says
the attack was repulsed and only rem.
nants Of them we're able to return to
their positions. The German artillery
in the neighborhood of Lens and Ypres
is bombarding the British line.
The artillery of the French and Ger.
mans is still active along the Ladies'
Walk and in Champagne. The French
have made raids on German trenches
near the Butte de Mesnil and in the
region of Haute Chevauchee, doing
considerable damage to the positions
and capturing prisoners.
Bad Weather Causes Cessation.
Bad weather has caused some ces.
sation of activity in the TrentinO dis.
trict of the Austro-Italian theater, al.
though artillery duels continue. On the
Julian front to the east, the Austrians
have been particularly active with
their big guns against the Italian lines
on the Vodice and the heights north
east of Gorilla.
In Macedonia the Teutonic allies
have met with repulse in several sur
prise attacks against the French
troops. The artillery duels continue

PUTTING 1T ON THE WORKER
BY SCOTT NEARING.

If the owners do not pay for the
war the workers will. If the workers
will not pay the owners must. There
is no other possibility.
Owners and workers receive all Of
the income that is paid out in the
United States. Owners and workers
possess all of the $50 billions Of
wealth that exists in the country. The
line of economic division in the COM
munity is between owners and work
ers. Whatever bills one does not foot,
fall to the share of the other TO pay.
The workers in Russia, who are evi-
IDENTIFY disinclined to pay at all, insofar
as the war debt is concerned, are for
pushing the owners off from the map
but that is in Russia. There is no
such radical movement in the United
States.
The owners are very few in num-
Der. Probably not more than one per-
son in five in the industrial districts
owns industrial property. The in
dustrial relations commission reported
that 2 per cent of the people of the
United States owned go per cent of
the wealth of the country, and that
the most important kind-resources,
franchises, banks and machinery.
While the owners are few, the work
ers are many. In most large industrial
centers they make up more than four
fifths of all of the people. II the
owners pay the war bill, it will be
rich mans war and poor mans fight.
If the owners pass on the paying to
the workers, the workers will do both
the paying and the fighting.
A little study of history throws onto
the foreground some important facts
about previous wars. Heretofore, the
workers have paid, in high prices, low
wages, poverty, hardships and suffer
ing. Indeed, there is hardly a war in
modern times that has not been n
blessing to some group of business
men. The Napoleonic wars proved
source of immense business advan-
tage to the British. The foundation Of
many an English fortune was laid
