BUY A BOND.

Come buy a bond, and buy it now,

Each bond you buy will be blow
As square as one by sword or gun.
Come buy bond. and do It quick

To save our liberty and state.

For war exacts speedy toll.

Strangely enough, Turkeys note to
President Wilson, asking that executive
TO use his good offices to restore peace
to the world, was not signed and was,
moreover, about week behind the Ger
man and the Austrian notes. An I'M
signed document bearing on such an i'm
portant matter can scarcely have any
weight; and, indeed, the senders of it
could not expect to get hearing. Per
haps there is something to explain in the
fact that the note was not signed.

If you find yourself tired, weak or los
ing flesh, this warning should be needed
promptly. You are in real and very
great danger, because the germ of this
epidemic is specially contagious, and in
your weakened condition should you come
in contact with it you would fall an easy
victim.
The commonsense preventive is to be-
gin taking Father Johns Medicine at
once because the pure food elements Of
which this old-fashioned, wholesome
body-builder is made are easily taken up
by the system and turned into vital, re-
sisting energy; giving you fighting
strength to ward off the influenza germ.
The gentle laxative effect OF Father
Johns Medicine drives out impurities.
Remember, Father Johns Medicine is
not stimulant IL is guaranteed free
from alcohol or dangerous drugs ADV.

WOMEN WHO FASclNATE

The art Of fascination and attrac-
Itiveness in women is founded on
good health. Women who drag
through long hours, days, weeks and
sometimes months of suffering with
headaches, backache and dragging
down pains soon wear the teIl-tale
expressions of woe and misery. If
every such woman would only turn
to that good oldfashioned root and
herb remedy, Lydia f. Pinkhams
Vegetable Comoound, to alleviate
such ailments it would surely prove
the greatest aid to health and CON
|sequent beauty that she has never
known. 1t
