RlNDS WILL HELP US
WIN THE WAR!
BY Biddy Bye
Economy is important in peace, but
it is imperative in war. In any great
national emergency women are eager
to cut down all their big expenses,
The experience of women in foreign
countries has proved the necessity of
GCOnOmizing in small ways as well.
While there was still a comfortable
allowance of meat in Germany, the
thrifty TeutOnic housewife invented
many curious but admirable ways of
making a little meat go a very long
way. Making soup from the bones
of leftover roast and steaks is a IA
miliar method of saving pennies, but
when the bones must be collected
slowly, as in a small family, they US
Ually spoil and must be put in the
garbage can.
Baked Bones
German housewives bake the
bones in a hot oven for an hour,
scrape off and save every scrap of
fat and drop OF juice and store the
bones in a cold place. If put in a re-
frigeTatOr the bones should keep
sweet a week, and soup made from
them will have a delicious flavor, due
to the baking.
Soup Meat
Many women assume that the
mass of fiber which remains after
soup has been drained from the meat
is valueless for food. But one of
Uncle Sans experts, writing in
Farmers Bulletin No. "a, says, "This
tasteless mass has been found to be
as easily and completely digested as
the same weight Of ordinary meat. It
contains nearly all the protein of the
meat, and if it is properly combined
with vegetables, salt and favOring
materials, makes an agreeable as
well as nutritive food.

vor to fried chicken. Bacon rind is
frequently used for greasing griddles.
Boiling Liquor
Even the water in which dried beef
and corn beef has been boiled has a
certain value as a flavOTer, and it
contains a little nutriment. From
the dried beef liquor a tasty soup
can be made by adding a bay leaf,
onion, parsley, red pepper, lemon
juice or vegetables and seasoning
with pepper. The water in which
cOrned beef has been boiled can be
made into a gravy and poured over
bread, toast or fried bread

UNITED PRESS WOULD ENJOIN
PRO-LIQUOR NEWS BUREAU
Cleveland, April 19.-The United
Press Association of New York yes
terday filed suit in the federal court
here for an injunction against o. K
Shimansky to prevent him send
ing out anti-prOhibitiOn propaganda
and other publicity matter in such a
way as to make it appear to come
from the United Press.
Shimansky has been conducting q
publicity campaign mainly in behalf
Of the liquor interests, of late
through a concern incorporated in
Ohio by him as the United Press As
ISOLATION. Company" In sending out
propaganda to newspapers through
out the country, however, Shiman-
sky used the name United Press As

Shimansky from using the name

Better Than Material Prosperity.

Material prosperity is alright, but
better than bursting barns is the over
flowing condition of the schools and
colleges of the State. The making OF
high-minded, right-thinking, God-fear-
ing men and women means mere to the
welfare of society and the future great
ness of South Carolina than the max
ing of money. Seek first to give your
children trained intellects and cultl-
vatei hearts and if they are made OF
the right fibre they will amass reason
able wealth. Without these two essen
tial qualifications, trained intellect and
cultured heart, whatever of this world 8
goods you leave them may prove to be
curse rather than blessing.
Let US rejoice, then, more over the
evidences that the fathers and mothers
of South Carolina are ambitious along
right lines for their children than over
the food-tide of prosperity that is en-
veloping our State. That there is
something better than wealth, hum
dreds and thousands of South Carolina
parents have discerned.

Tanlac's Success
Due to Real Merit.
HOT AIR WILL PUT A BAL
LOON UP BUT WON'T KEEP
1T THERE-IT PAYS TO
ADVERTISE.
BUT SUCCESS is IMPOSSIBLE UNLESS
THERE Is DoLLAR-FoR-
DOLLAR VALUE BEHIND
! THE ARTICLE ADvER-
TISED.

This is an age of advertising, and
everyone is familiar with the pop
ular saying, 1t pays to advertise. :"
Advertising is a business force.
So potent is the charm cast by its
spell it has been known to perform
marvellous feats and to accomplish
phenomenal results. 1t cannot be
truly said, however, that everyone
who advertises succeeds, for unless
full value unierlays the article ad-
vertlsed, the advertising would ul-
timately fall of its own weight. In
this connection we must not forget
the words of the immortal Lincoln,
VINO said: You can fool some Of
the people all the time: you can
fool all of the people some of the
time, but you cannot fool all of the
people all of the time" So if there
is not behind every advertisement a
dollars and cents value to the artl-
Gle advertised, no amount of adver-
tising will stimulate the sale on
such an article beyond a certain
point. This applies to every line
of business, and the modern bust
ness man or firm can only succeed
through honest advertising and fair
dealing.
Hot air will put up balloon but
it won't keep it there. So when
the manufacturers of Taulac placed
it on the market something over
years ago, they did 50 with the
firm conviction that they were Of
fering to the people the best and
purest product of it's kind on the
American market to-day. They did
not hesitate, therefore, to expend
vast sums for advertising, because
they knew that the more the people
heard about Tanlac the more they
would buy it. The success the
preparation achieved was immedi-
ate, and people everywhere were
quick to recognize it's n u i e
merit.
Tanlac has never been advertised
as a cure-all" or that it would per
form unheard-of wonders. The ad-
vertising has been clean, straight
forward aud constructive. Actual
facts and figures have been stated
and stated in a businesslike way in
manner that has commanded con-
fdence in tie conservative claims
set forth. Underlying these claims
there has been real value, not from
dollars and cents point alone, but
from health as we'll. And that's

we'll. had pains in my side, shoul-
ders and neck, and my condition
became so bad it was all l could do
to stay on my job. I tried all kinds
of medicines and was under treat

getting worse.
Il heard about Vitona and deci-
ded to try it, but I had very little
faith in it doing me any good. 1 be-
gan to feel an improvement before

rheumatism has disappeared, the
pains have left my sides and neck
aud I feel like l did when "a young
man. My stomach is in good con-
dition and my kidneys no longer
bother me. I'm not nervous like /
was, my sleep is sound and restful
and my appetite is good. Vitona
is the finest thing of its kind I've
ever seen and l am more than de-
lighted with the results. l think

know this wonderful remedy"
Vitona is sold in Edgefeld by

AutO-I1tOxiCatiOll
Causes Death

Do you know why you have sick
headache, diabetes, neuralgia, rheu-
matism and liver or kidney troubles?
It's because you are being poisoned
by products of your own body. Your
organs of elimination are not work
ing properly. Waste material that
should be thrown out is being retained
to poison and intoxicate your system.
That could not happen if the bowels
were kept open with Granger Liver
Regulator. This splendid preparation
is purell y vegetable and non-alcoholic.
Demand Granger Liver Regulator at
your drug store-25c box-and take
no other. There is nothing "just as

Inspire Your Children.

The season for the opening of school
is here, and the session which lies be-
fore US, from the standpoint of real
profit to the children, rests largely,
more largely, with parents than with
teachers. 1t is an erroneous idea for
a parent to say, "Well, pay the
teacher to teach my children. I haven't
time to bother with their studies" F." The
parents have their duties and the
teachers theirs. Both entirely differ
ent, yet equally as essential, and if
properly co-ordinated, or adjusted one
to the other, the child will be encour-
aged and inspired from day-to-day,
looking upon school work as a pleasure
rather than a drudgery.
Parents should not only be loyal
themselves to the teacher but should
impress upon their children to be loyal
and impress them that the teacher is
their friend and not an avowed enemy.
When cordial, kindly relationship ex-
lists between pupil and teacher, instead
of daily friction and unpleasantness,
the child not only makes greater prog
ress in classroom work but learns to
love the school and its atmosphere.
The existence of this mental attitude
makes it possible for the teacher to in
splre child and arouse latent forces
which will raise that child above
the plane of dumb driven cattle" 1t
is more important that children be in
spired with desire to learn than it is
that facts and figures from textbooks
be crammed into their brain cells.
This intellectual awakening during
the period of grammar school work
determines the character of work that
will be done in the high school and sub
sequently in the college course. Many
parents who are financially able to give
their children a collegiate education
deplore the fact, when the children
attain the college age, that they will
not avail themselves of the opportunity.
1t is now too late to inspire them with
a desire for intellectual culture. The
time to do this is when boy is in
knee-pants, at which age he either
forms a taste or distaste for books.
Probably your boy is now facing the
two ways that lie out before him. One
leads to college and higher education
and the other to stopping school, en-
tering a premature business or do
nothing career. Which road would you
have your boy travel? His fate or for
tune rests largely with father and
mother.
Encourage, inspire him before it is
too late. This the teacher can not do
alone.

The Thornwell Orphanage.

The Thornwell Orphanage loca-
ted at Clinton, S, c., is the name of
the Home for Orphans under the
care of the Presbyterian churches
in South Carolina, Georgia and
Florida. 1t has thirty-fye teachers
and matrons for its twenty-four de-
partments and cottage homes, in
which are sheltered above three
hundred orphans. The Home re-
ceives children from any part of the
Union, and from any denomination.
During July and August eighty
two applications were received, of
whom only nineteen could be &C
cepted. Above two hundred are on
the waiting list. These are all sup
ported by the generosity of the Pres
bytcrian public. We hope the
friends of the school will do as all
the other Orphan Homes are expect
ing, observe Orphan Work Day on
the 18th of October. The observ.
ance consists in sending your days
wages for that day to the Institu-
ton you favor. The Thornwell
Home has filled up every vacancy,
Notwithstanding the War and high
prices and will shortly erect anoth>
er cottage. The pupils of the Home
have the best of schooling and
manual training and are very care
fully taught. None but orphans
are received. Contributions should
be sent to Rev. J. 3. Branch Clin-
ton, S. G. The life of the Institu-
tion has been forty-Lwo years in
which time more than a thousand
boys and girls have been made into
useful and educated citizens.
