Tor: they are the ordinary incidenta
os the investment market.
But the public was told that the Lab
erty bonds were the worlds premier
security. Can any security hold first
place when there is no market for Il?
Certainly there would be no market
for Liberty bonds II their owners were
forbidden to accept prices which buy
ers would pay. II would be unreal
sonable to expect buying In any large
quantity ut par, since investors would
naturally wait for the next issue, talk
ing their chance of high interest
rate. Moreover buyers Of these bonds
were told that they were as good as
currency they could at any time DO
exchanged for cash. But no respon-
sible person told tho buyers that they
could always sell their bonds at par.
It is of common experience that when
governments are at war their securi-
ties sell at some discount, often very
large.
But IL Mr.. McAdoo will have II that
these bonds must not sell below par
he should first chide the Federal Re-
serve banks for their penuriousness
in loanig only 30 per cent of par
value to buyers depositing the bonds
as security. If that margin does not
contemplate some fall In the market,
why was 1t established? In the case
of these bonds the privilege to sell is
correlative to the duty to buy. The
creation Of the myth. superstition, or
belief that the selling OF Liberty bonds
at abe market quotation is unpatriotic
will not tend to increase the eagerness
of the public to subscribe to the next
issue.-New York Times.

TONOLINE IS BEAUTY AID,
: ANNOUNCES SPECIALIST
Mildred Louise Talk of Interest to
Women.

AS health is a first aid to beauty
this story, told by Mildred Louise,
beauty specialist of Boston, Mass, is
of unusual interest.
81 can recommend no better health
giver than tonoline,' said Mildred
Louise.
81 was for many months victim
of stomach trouble and nervousness.
| had suffered terribly from pains
that followed eating. Headaches also
would add to my worries. Poor dl-
gestion finally brought on nervous
ness.
Relief came, however, when
took the advice of several women
who said, Take tonoline.
mot long after l started the tono-
line treatment, my patrons began to
remind me of the improvement in
my condition. And because health
is the quickest way to beauty, the
Improvement was particularly notice
able in my face.
What tonoline really did for me
l cannot say. l am so grateful that
am very willing to recommend tono-
line publicly ,
Tonoline is a purely vegetable
preparation which goes to the seat OF
common maladies-Stomach and KID
ney trouble, catarrhal affections OF
the mucous membranes, liver all
ments and impurities of the blood
and quickly restores proper action.
Tonoline is being explained daily to
many people at Mack's Drug Store
Ramberg, S. c., and Peoples Phar-
macy, Denmark, S. c.
Notice: tonoline is a wonder
full flesh builder it should not be
taken by any one not wishing TO IN
crease his weight ten pounds or
more. Although many reports are
received from those who have been
benefited by tonoline in severe cases
of stomach trouble and nervous
dyspepsia, chronic constipation, etc.

WHAT IS
LAX F0S
lAX.F0S IS AN IMPROVED cAScAM
ADHESIVE LAXATIVE
cATHAR1lc AND LIVER TONIC
LAx-Fos is not Secret or Patent Med-
cine but is composed of the following
old fashioned roots and herbs:
CASCARA BARK
Blue FLAG ROOT
RHUBARB ROOT
BLACK ROOT
MAY APPLE ROOT
SIENNA LEAVES
AND PEPSIN

In LAX Fos the CAscARA is improved by
the addition of these digestive ingredi-
ents making it better than ordinary CAS-
CARA, and thus the combination acts not
only as a stimulating laxative and cathar-
tic but also as digestive and liver tonic.
Syrup laxatives are weak, but LAx-Fos
combines strength with palatable, aro-
matte taste and does not gripe or disturb
the stomach. One bottle will prove

PIT ARMY IN FIELD.
British Would BE Overjoyed, lis
ter BalfOur Says.

Washington. May 5.-Great Bri-
tain formally joined France today in
expressing the hope that an Ameri-
can eXpeditionary force soon would
take it's place on the western front
in Europe.
Foreign Secretary Balfour told the
council of national defense that the
British would be overjoyed to well
come an American force in France
and that it's early dispatch could not
but have an enormous psychological
effect both on the allies and on their
enemies.
Todays meeting brought together
for the first time for formal confer
ences the British and American mill
tary officials, and there was a pre-
liminary study Of the whole general
situation under the five heads of in
telligence work, munitions, material,
hospitals and the expeditionary force
question.
Army Likely to Go.
At the meeting the officials sum-
married. the results of individual con-
ferences held daily since the British
mission arrived and laid the ground
work for general discussion of all
phases of military cooperation.
While no formal announcement was
made, the impression grew after the
meeting that an American army will
go to the western front as soon as
possible.
The British officials present, be-
sides Mr.. Balfour, were Lieut.. Gen.
Bridges, Major C. E. Dazey and other
military members attached to the
mission The United States was rep
resented by Secretaries Baker, Lane
and Redfield, and other members of
the council of national defense, to-
gether with Major Gems. Scott and
Bliss, chief and assistant chief of
staff respectively.
For Allies to Decide.
The question of sending an expe-
dictionary force is understood to de-
pend now almost entirely on whether
the allies would prefer to divert from
tho troncnorf Of fOO6 tho O m ount Of
tonnage necessary to carry the SOL
diers across the Atlantic.
Already trade commissions of
American officials and members of
the British and French mission are at
work on a general export programme
to be submitted to the American and
allied governments. A plan of ap-
portioning American supplies among
the allies and the maintenance of the
proper balance between munitions,
food and other shipments is the first
thing to be worked out by the trade
commissions. The allies will present
an outline of their needs and the
Americans will submit a list giving
the amounts this country can fur
nish.
If permanent allied commission
is established here the American
members of the committees will deal
