PARTIAL PAYMENT PLAN F0R LIBERTY
 LOAN |S POPULAR
WAGE FARMERS MAY OBTAIN BONDS AND PAY IN WEEKLY
 INSTAlLMENTS.
THE BANKS AGREE ON FORM
City Workers May Pay Weekly, While in Rural Communities Syeten1s
 Adapted to Needs Are ,f
 Being Developed.

The government partial payment" plan is being adopted by many of the cities and towns throughout the Eighth Federal Reserve District for handling the Third Liberty Loan, which starts April 6. Committees have been appointed in several cities to work out details in connection with the plan. It is thought that no form of subscriptions to be used in the sale of the bonds will reach anything like the aggregate number of subscribers who will take advantage of this meth cd of purchasing. :
 In St. Louis committee of bankers has been active shaping arrangements so that purchasers of these bonis will have the privilege of buying them on weekly installments. ,,a
 F. o. Watts, president Third Ma tional Bank of St. Louis and chairman of the Metropolitan Committee of the Liberty Loan Organization for the Eighth Federal Reserve District, is highly enthusiastic over the plan.
 During the previous loans, Mir. Watts said, there were approximately 38,000 subscriptions in St. Louis which were taken on a weekly installment plan, but in his opinion that city ought to have 138,00O subscribers to the weekly payment plan. That g the goal set by the present committee for the Third Liberty Loan Bond issue.
 Of the 47 banks in St. Louis, 46 hays signed up to cooperate in pushing the weekly payment subscriptions, and a uniform contract to govern such sub. scriptions. approved by the St. Louis Clearing House Association, as well as the banks themselves, has been adopted.

when SLEEP DOES
NOT REFRESH YOU
1t Is a Sign That You Need a
Tonic for Your Blood and
Nerves.

People who are tired out, who arise
in the morning feeling that sleep has
not refreshed them, are in a state of
nervous exhaustion that borders on
tho condition that doctors call
neurasthenia. The causes are varied.
Continuous work. mental or physical,
without proper vacation periods,
without proper attention to diet and
exercise, also worry over the strug
gle for success, are the most COM
mon causes. Excesses of almost any
kind may produce it. Sometimes
diseases like the grip will cause
neuraSthenia. SO also will a severe
shock. intense anxiety or grief.
The symptoms are over sensitive
ness. irritability, a disposition to wor-
ry over trifies, headache. possibly
nausea.
Mr.. Charles Crowley of "a Richard
street. West Lynn, Mass. stationary
engineer, had an attack of pneumonia
which left him in a weak and nerv-
Gus condition.
My nervous system was weak

were shaky and the muscles sore. At
times it seemed my limbs would give
out. The muscles of my shoulders
were painful and sore. l had severe
headaches. My rest seemed to do me

Pills through a newspaper. and after

me. L took two more boxes. l am
feeling good. the nervous twitchings
are gone and l sleep and eat we'll"
The treatment in cases like this is
ono of nutrition of the nerve cells,
requiring a non alcoholic tonic. AS
the nerves get their nourishment from
the blood the treatment must be di-
rected toward building up the blood.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills act directly
on the blood and with proper regula
ton of the diet have proved of the
greatest benefit in many cases of
neurasthenia. A tendency to anemia.
or bloodlessness. shown by most
neurasthenic patients. is also correct
ed by these tonic pills.

knittin', knittn'. knittin'.

knittin by the oil lamps
And by electric light
knittin' on the porches,
In hammocks and in swings.
Knitting by the garden walk
And at the dairy spring:
They're all a-knittin' everywhere
For knittin is the thing
knittin'. knittin'. knittin',
In country and in town;
knittin from the youngest up
And from the oldest down:
Grandma knits the fastest.
For she's the knittin' kind;
Ihen mother. aunt and sister come,
With father close behind
A home wherein no knittins done
Nobody wants to find.
Knittn', knittin'. knittln,
Top and heel and toe;
What musics that the needles play,
AS clickingly they go,
knittin' fast and faster
In tender hands that hold
The garments knit from skelns Of love
More valuable than gold
For balls of knitting yarn we know.
United hearts enfold.
