BURDEN is ON MEN
They Must Be Satisfied With Plain
Food To Be Economical.

If the men and the children of the
household won't eat plain food and
be happy there's no use in talking to
the woman of the house about food
economy This is the message sent
out by the Kansas Defense Council.
THE farmer is doing everything in
his power to keep production at the
point of safe living and safe fighting.
commented DIR. H J. Waters, presi-
dent of the council, today. IF his
efforts are to count, however, he must
have the cooperation of the home.
we can not be extravagant in our
households and expect the farmer still
to furnish enough food to supply US
and our allies
ut is not thru the activities of the
housewife alone that we are going to
have food economy. Fully as much
depends on the head of the family and
the children. If they are dissatisfied,
the housewife will try to satisfy them
without paying any further attention
to economy. They must take a part
fully equal to that of the housewife in
practicing and encouraging food
thrift"

A Free Prescription You Can Have
Filled and Use at Home.


Philadelphia, Pa. Victims of eye strain
and other eye weaknesses, and those who
wear glasses. will be glad TO know that
according to DIR. Lewis there is real hope
and help for them. Many whose eyes
were failing say they have had their eyes
restored by this remarkable prescription
and many who once wore glasses say they
have thrown them away. One man says,
after using it: II was almost blind. Could
not see to read at all. Now 1 can read
everything without my glasses and my
eyes do not hurt any more. At night they
would pain dreadfuIly. Now they feel
fine all the time. 1t like a miracle
to me" A lady who used 1t says: THE
atmosphere seemed hazy with or without
glasses. but after using this prescription
for 10 days everything seems clear can
read even fine print without glasses" An
other who used it says: I was bothered
with eve strain caused by overworked
tired ewes which induced fierce headaches
| have worn glasses for several years both
for distance and work, and without them
1 could not read my own name on an en-
velcpe or the typewriting on the machine
discarded my long distance glasses alto
gether. l can count the flutterinE leaves
on the trees across the street now, which
for several years have looked like dim
green blur to me. | cannot express my
JOY at what it has done for me-"
II is believed that thousands who wear
glasses can now discard them in q reason

GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH
AT KALAMAZOO TOMORROW.

There is TO be a real circus day this
year-a Barnum and Bailey circus
day. Advance guards of the greatest
show on Earth announce that this
seasons route carries it close enough
to be visited by everybody in this
. vicinity. Thirty acres of tents will
be set, and the big show will be ex-
hibited in Kalamazoo on September
1st.
A wonderful new program is prom
ised, and it is claimed that this sea-
son the monster entertainment has
more and better things to show than
ever before. Starting with mag
nifcent pageant entitled, aladdin
and His Wonderful Lamp" the circus
will occupy three hours or more with
events in air, on platform, and rings,
and in the huge hippodrome surround
ing. Not one moment will be lost in
all of the spaces of the vast inclosure.
The opening feature is the first at
tempt at Chinese pageantry in the
history of American circuses, and it
has been described as the most gOr-
geous presentation ever attempted.
The story of the genie slave of the
magi lamp is too well known to need
description here. However, it may
be we'll to call attention to the possis
bilities for display in coloring and
magnificent settings in the Chinese
locale, and to the fact that Barnun
and Bailey have spent S1,O00,000 TO
reproduce all of its glorious possibil-
tiles.
