Your Labor Counts-every ounce of work you do helps some soldier. This war was fought as truly in the household and in the workshop as 1t was in the trenches.
 Some of our American women are borne down physically and mentally. by the weaknesses of their sex. They suffer from backache, dragging sensa- ton, bearing-down pains, very nervous and pain in top of head. If they ask their neighbors they will be told to take a Faeorite Prescription of Dr. Pierce's which has been 80 well and favorably known for the past half century.
 Weak women should try it now. Don't waitl Today is the day to begin. This temperance tonic and nervine wil bring vim, vigor and vitality. Send Dr. Pierce, Buffalo, N. r., loc. for trial pkg. tablets.

SPEND YOUR MONEY ON HOME
Outlay Surely Worth While, Since t Is the crandest Institution Con-
 ceived by Man.

Life is short yes, by comparison with what lies beyond, but since its birth this small atom in q universe of worlds has been for millions, aye for billions of men q workshop and play ground. They have bought and sold, they have toiled and rcapcd, they have harnessed the lightning, conquered the air and established lanes of traffic across the raging sea. They have eFen tunneled beneath wide rivers, hanging safe highways of steel for travel far under the patsiHg tides ebb and flow.
 As the race has progressed from it's earliest beginnings more and more firmly has q fitting idea of home be- come fixed in men's hearts Time was when home meant rude hut with out windows and with a hole in the roof for a chimney. Now everyone realizes that q home is the grandest institution yet conceived by man, place not alone in which to sleep and eat but very shrine of shrines q sanctuary of loving hearts, we'll spring of inspiration and peace.
 A tender sentiment attaches to the Image of the little matched cottage in the lane. But with the passing of the unsanitary thatched roof has come the bigger, better idea of the home as II place for which no modern invention for comfort, even for luxury, is toe good Plate-glass windows, yes, if we can afford them! A garden with fountain around which birds shall gather and beside which young lovers shall dream-why not? If the dread of the proyerbial rainy day is past why not lavish upon the home in unstinted measure not only love but money-so that when we come to it at the close of day it shall give back to us glow for heart throb, smile for smile. ease and for every need of body and of soul. To build and worthily equip the home is sacred task, T blessed privilege. As a man thinketh i'll his heart of his home-so is he Peoples Home Journal.

Wace War on Dirt

Dirt is sin, and it takes bacteriolo- gist to tell the difference between clean dirt and dirty dirt. So we can afford to take no chances. Unless we cultivate cleanliness of mind and body, cleanliness of home, of city and country, cellar and garret, wharf and shop, markets and roads, of the air we breathe, of the milk and water we drink. and the food we eat, all the serums and regulations of preventive medicines will not save us. For health, like morality, is more than an indi- vidual matter; it is a community af- fair.

Five Loaves of Bread in
Garbage Pail Excites an
Indignant Crowd in Street

That the citizens of Harrisburg
have a genuine concern in the con-
servation of food in these critical
times was illustrated this morning
when Administrator Donald McCor-
mick had very busy hour with q
number of loyal and enterprising
Harrisburgers who discovered FIVE
whole loaves of bread in the garbage
of a Market street restaurant. At
first the telephone conveyed the news
and finally man with Missouri"
instincts went further. plucking out
the loaves and bringing them in per-
son to Mr. Mccormick.
That's mighty good work. COM
mended the food administrator of
Dauphin county. And l hope every
one in Harrisburg will follow your
example. There is no excuse what
ever for this waste. We have no
authority to do anything in cases
like this. Our only weapon is pub
licity."
Mr.. Mccormick thought it Judi
cious not to give out the name of
the wasteful proprietor, whose place
of business is frequented mostly at
night, but this discovery will likely
result in a closer watch. The turn
ing UP of the five untouched loaves
caused a mild panic along Market
street and the indignant citizen who
transported them up the street had
quite an interested following.
w. e. Schneider of No. South
Sixteenth street, who for twenty
eight years was in the railroad mail
service, was the man who carried the
bread. Many others had noticed the
good, fresh bread which topped the
garbage but no one had the nerve to
start something until Schneider came
along. He first tried to get into the
establishment to which the garbage
pail belongs, but found all the doors
locked.
