February 8 will be thrift day.

February will be thrift day.
This day has been designated by
bankers and business men througout
the country as period, for thoughtful
consideration on the part of all classes
of persons not only of the necessity
of saving but also of eliminating the
many wastes in living.
Plans for observance of the day in
Portland are under consideration of
the Oregon chapter of the American
Institute of Banking. T. H. West,
chairman of the thrift committee of the
chapter, said that meeting of COM
mittee members would be held prob
ably today when details of program
will be worked out.
"The idea of thrift is one which all
agree is worthy, and more particularly
because of the high cost of living"
said Mr.. West. Thrift, in it's broader
sense, represents top-notch efficiency.
1t means the reduction of waste to a
minimum, the elimination of useless
extravaganza and the conservation of
all resources.
"The effect of thrift is by no means
limited to the financial welfare of the
individual. It's practice not only re-
suits in a competence in dollars and
cents but develops character through
self-control, self mastery and the self
confidence that thrift inspires"
A. Meyers, president of the First
State bank of Gresham, says that
Gresham is preparing to observe thrift
day, and efforts will be made to have
all the residents give some attention
to the matter Of thrift and to start

THIN PEOPLE

PHOSPHATE
Nothing Like Plain Bitro-Phosphate to
Put on Finn, Healthy Flesh and
to Increase Strength, Vigor
and Nerve Force

Judging from the countless prepara-
tions and treatments which are contin-
ually being advertised for the purpose
of making thin people fleshy, develop
ing arms, neck and bust, and replacing
ugly hollows and angles by the soft
curved lines of health and beauty,
there are evidently thousands of men
aDw women who keenly feel their ex-
cessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness are usually
due to starved nerves. Our bodies need
more phosphate than is contained in
modern foods. Physicians claim there
is nothing that will supply this defi-
cheney so well as the organic phosphate
known among druggists as bitro-phos-
phate, which is inexpensive and is sold
by most all druggists under a guaran-
tee of satisfaction OF money back. By
feeding the nerves directly and by sup
plying the body cells with the neces-
sary phosphoric food elements, bitro-
phosphate quickly produces Q. welcome
Transformation in the appearance; the
increase in weight frequently being
astonishing.
This increase in weight also carries
with it general Improvement III che
health. Nervousness, sleepiessness and
lack of energy, which nearly always
accompany excessive thinness, soon
disappear, dull eyes become bright,and
pale cheeks glow with the bloom of
perfect health,
CAUTION - Although bitro-phos-
phate is unsurpassed for relieving
nervousness, sleeplessness and general
weakness, it should not, owing to its
remarkable flesh growing properties,
be used by anyone who does not desire
to put on flesh.
