pELAwARE's DUTY.

From the Dover Index.
We hear from many sources that
Delaware, with her splendid record in
other days, is not showing up well
In furnishing her share OF volunteers
for the present war. Our National
Guard is away below war strength
and recruiting has met with poor re-
suits Even Company G, the Dover
Company. lacks SO men to bring it up
to war strength. This is not a thing
10 be thought Of without a feeling of
humiliation. IL is true that our young
men are busy on farms and many are
away in munition factories and other
industries where high wages are paid,
but Delaware blood has always told
in days OF National peril and National
need. We are proud of the Delaware
heroes of Revolutionary days and
though in a sense divided, we did our
part in the Civil War. AS we view II
there was never war In which we
took part that was entered into after
more serious reflection and when
justice and right were more on our
side. II the Nation was ever entitled
to the support and aid OF its people
Il is at this time. and every son Of
Delaware should be aroused to a
sense OF its duty and the urgent call
of the country that we all love and
the cause Of freedom and humanity.

Lemon Juice rs
Skin Beautifier,
Also a Whitener

Many women use just the juice OF
lemons to bleach or whiten the skin,
but pure lemon juice is acid. therefore
irritating, and should be mixed with
orchard white.
AT the cost OF a small jar OF ordin-
airy cold cream one can prepare full
quarter pint OF the most wonderful
lemon skin softener and complexion
beautifler, by squeezing the juice OF
two fresh lemons into a bottle con-
tanning three ounces of orchard white
Care should be taken to strain the
juice through fine cloth so no lemon
pulp gets in then this lotion will
keep fresh for months. Every woman
knows that lemon juice is used to
bleach and remove such blemishes as
freckles, sallowness and tan. and is
the ideal skin softener, smoothener
and beautifer.
Just try IT. Get three ounces Of
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and make
up a quarter pint Of this sweetly frag-
rant lemon lotion and massage Il
daily into the face, neck, arms and
hands. II should naturally help to
bring back to any skin the Wilderness,
the sweet freshness and fexibility Of
which It has been robbed by careless
ness or trying atmospheric condi-
tions.

THE INDICATIONS.

n campaigning for the Liberty Loan, Secretary Nc
Adoo declares: 1--WE must over-subscrbe this loan
as indication that America is stirred to the depths
and aroused to the summit OF her greatness
The loan viii probably be over-subscribed all right
and still not show that the country is stirred to her
depths aroused TO the summit OF her greatness
The stirring will not reach the depths until every
patriot who has $50 TO spare subscrbes for bond
This means millions OF people and millions OF people
don't know whether not they have $50 to spare
such is the uncertainty about taxation. Nor the
real depths reached until the element Of sacrifice
hardship enters in. Non taxable government bonds
yielding u per cent interest do not look the
like hardship but like very good investment. In

The Best Way TO Spend $40
(From the New York SUM

The best way to spend ten dollars
is to lend 1t to your country. In other
wards, the best way to spend ten dol
lars is not to spend it. Money lent to
your country is not spent; it is in
vested.
There's an old saying that you can't
eat your cake and have 1t too. A way
has been found to do II.
Take ten dollars aud stop at the
Federal Reserve Bank in the Eauit-
able Building this morning. Buy a
participation certificate with the
money. You will find you have all.tbe
sensations. rather agreeable, on the
whole, OF spending money. But you
won't be spending money You'll be
sailing money away
Five OF these participation certifi-
Gates are exchangeable for a bond OF
the United States bearing interest at
IL per cent. and free of all taxes
except estate and inheritance taxes.
The bond is what Is called a con-
Vertible bond. II the Government Dor
rows money at more than IL per
cent. during the war you will receive
the higher rate too, by converting
your bond into one bearing the great

The money you put in a participa-

you CAN BUY A BOND.
-. L. .....l anI...

From the Laurel Leader.
Although you may be earning but
an average salary, or your wage may
not be high, you can give aid to your
country by buying a Liberty bond.
The government has arranged for
Liberty bonds to be disposed of as
low as $4,000 and on the installment
plan. This is for the purpose OF al
lowing everyone an opportunity to
assist in raising the great war funds
The upkeep Of an army and navy.
the tremendous expense incurred
by war necessitates that vast
amount Of money be raised. The Uni
ted States is prosperous. There Is
less Of actual want and poverty at
the present time than in many years.
France and England, while not en-
ioying prosperity. have displayed
their patriotism handsomely by sub
scribing to their war loans. Ohicial
reports from these countries show
that many who could IN afford Il
have given their aid and done so
gladly.
Appropriate is the name Libert!
loan, for II means but one thing and
that is liberty, and TO the whole world.
The money placed in the Liberty
loan IN the United States spells vic
tory and the downfall of Germany. It
means new world. for there is not
a nation but which will be effected
Our boys in service. our men who
are farming and our women who are
sewing are all doing their bit. The
Liberty bonds gives US all a chance
to assist. The bonds are equal to
cash and Il is our duty to subscribe.
Delaware has thus far made an ex-
cellent showing In buying Liberty
bonds We have never Jagged in any
issue Of national interest, let us go
on record as being a. comparative
leader In the huyIng OF Liberty bonds

German submarine is at the bottom
OF the Atlantic.
You haven't $40? A dollar will do.
Go to any CT the large retail stores,
TO any bank, bond house or trust
company with It and subscribe to
$50 Liberty Bond. You have till June
% to save SO more, till July 80 to
save another $40, TIN August IS to
save SIS more and till August 30 TO
save the final SIS. Trim the edges Of
that August vacation little and 1t
will be easy.
One Of the best ways OF buying
Liberty Bond requires nothing paid
down. Two dollars a week for fifty
weeks does it. This method empha-
sizes what every American ought to
bear in mind, that the loan ought TO
represent as largely as possible what
the American people will be able to
save from now on.
The fact that you have or can get
no ready money is not an excuse for
not buying a bond. It's not what you
have, it's what you can save in the
figure that counts.
The man who simply takes $4,000
already saved and buys Liberty
Bonds and then goes on living in the
old wasteful way is not doing so
much for his country as one man
who buys a 500 bond without a cent
down, squeezing the 50 a week out OF
an already burdened budget.
In the kind OF war which we are
engaged in what we have won't win
unless It is redoubled by what we can
make and save.

I'VE have repeated all tho miserable eyaslons and
apologies Of German statesmen and been silent upon
