'hoW Was Successful in Practicing Thrift By MRS. RICHARD s. BARNETT. One of Papers Receiving Honorable
 Thrift Contest

My idea of thrift is family co-bpera- tion. The great mistake of most fond mothers is to deny themselves and overlook the thing of the most vital importance to the child self sacrifice The child should be taught self-sacri- flee, and now of all times is the most o"portune to teach thrift.
 A mother with house full of child ren can not do their own household work without physical discontinue. unless each member of the household does his part.
 To be able to can to the best ad- vantage, she must have fresh veg etables at small cost. Things even as commonplace as vegetables play a most important part in our lives just now. Raising and canning most of your vegetables for the year is great step towards thrift. Do not overlook the care of the jars for another year.
 You who have come fro mfamilies of wealth, who have never had to think of the economy of living, should stop and take inventory of your pantry and kitchen. how mortified you would be. The only way for you to realize this is to keep an itemized account of your living expenses, with and without ser wants.
 After all, I think my most practical method of successful thrift has been

MOTOR TRUCK FOR
 FIRE DEPAR

The combination hose wagon and chemical apparatus to be used at fire station No. ? arrived yesterday, and was given tryont 'inde: the Supervision of Fire Ch'af A. C.. Erie ner. This piece of fire fighting ap- paratus, the second installed here, was made by the American L.aFiance company, and cost about $3.60o It weighs 5,900 pounds, is equipped with a four-cylinder, 40 horsepower motor and carries the usual nara phernlalia. It is not as heavy as the truck first installed, and the body is higher from theground The tires arc solid rubber, made resilient by the manner in which they are manu- factured. With the purchase of a tractor or chassis for the hook and ladder truck, fire stations Nos. 1 and 2 will be completely motorized. Bids for the tractor are to be opend Mon day.
 Chief Briener calculates that it will cost the city less to maintain the trucks than it does to feed horses. with feed and hay costing as much as they do.' said the chief. "it costs about $40 month to feed a team. The operation of truck doesn't cost that much"

to eliminate all charge accounts.
 If you wish to serve your country, as you say you do, instead of proclaim ing it from the housetops, put a little more of your strength and energy in- to your kitchen and see for yourself what can be saved
 Household work is drudgery only when we make it so. There is joy in everything if we but look for it There is nothing that will draw family so close as housework planned and car ried out together. Each tries to help the other, and before we realize it.
 Some of the sweetets moments of my our task is accomplished. Y life have been spent in dishwashing. The sweet nearness of my children as they stand with towel by me to dry each article cleansed. The dear con- fidences exchanged while thus occupied have meant more to my mother heart than the amount of dollars and cents thus saved.
 My first efforts at thrift were pure- ly selfish but by Gods help and guid- ance, they have become something greater
 The proper and successful practice of thrift means Victory in our way. Food for the starving and a happy, con- tented heart when we have done our bit.

PINE BLUFF LADY OVERCOMES
 USE OF MORPHINE.

Troubled about 10 years with what the doctors called gall stones, often l thought I I-would die before the doctor could get here. when he would give me hypodernic of nor
 phine and advise an operation. A neignb'or told me about Mayr's Own derful Remedy for stomach trouble and since taking the first dose ? years ago I have not had an attack nor needed a hypodermic. It is a simple, harmless preparation that re- moves the catarrhal mucns from the intestinal tract and allays the inflam- nation which causes practically all stomach, liver and internal ailments, including appendicitis.
