The painful fact is coming to light
that many people, who do not need the
money, Ere cashing in their War Saw
ings. Stamps which they bought during
the last drive. Under the pressure of
the soliciting committee these people
purchased stamps in order to pretend
they were backing the government,
with the secret idea that they could
cash them in shortly, thus retaining
the false credit that they were help
ing the government and in no man.
ner mountaineering themselves.
This war has developed a number Of
slackers. A choice variety Of which
are the persons and business houses
who bought the limit of War Savings
Stamps to get their names in the pa
pers as members Of the Limit Club,
have since cashed in their stamps and
got their money back. You ask are
there slackers of this kind in Mon
tana! We bow our heads with shame
and answer there are a number of
them. Such action is not clever, it is
indeed very crude. The Post Offices
throughout the State furnish the
county directors and the State direc-
tor with reports at intervals of all
stamps cashed and it is an easy mat
ter for those acquainted with the peo-
pie of the various towns to see at a
glance the reason why stamps are
cashed.
To cash in War Savings STAMPS
when not in dire need of the money
is the passport Of disfavor. The cash

nous chorus Of derision and bitter
ness. He will be in no small degree
responsible for the death of many
soldier boys, their blood will be upon
him. He is a derelict American and
a moral coward. The child that saves
from his candy and buys stamps each
week, though it be a small amount,
and holds their stamps, are worthy
examples of American patriots help
ing in their way, though small, to win
this mighty struggle. While they re-
ceive scant recognition at the time,
they will have the knowledge that
they did all they could and their con-
science will never bother them like
the man who cashed in his stamps,
simply because he thinks he needs the
money.-Publicity Service-War Saw

American Army Leads in Repelling
Disease.

The American army now sets the
world standard for holding disease at
its lowest percentage. This statement
is made by no less an authority than
Maj.-Gen. William C. Gorgas, surgeon
general of the United States army.
Until the American forged its way
to first place the standard was set by
the Japanese.
The occasion of General Gorgas' re-
marks was a recent and unexpected
visit that he made to the Chicago
stockyards. There he expressed him.
self satisfied with the meat that was
being prepared for delivery to the
expeditionary forces.
General Gorgas said further: "The
health and sanitary conditions in the
American army camps and among the
men called to service are satisfactory.
Personal disease among the men in
the army is about the same as in
civil life. We are doing better than
the armies of Europe; but we should
do better because we have had the
record of their experience to guide

The Bravest Aerial Feat.

In these days Of stirring deeds in
the air it may surprise many people
to learn that recently, in a discussion
which arose among some Of our young
aviators on the pluckiest flying deed
on record, first place was given to
Bleriot's memorable flight across the
English channel. Only those who have
flown know the capital value to the
airman of confidence in his machine.
The dud engine is the dark spector of
his dreams, and yet Bleriot crossed
the English channel on a machine
which had remained in the air
for the time he calculated it would
take him to make his channel flight
and one of the gravest doubts was the
machines ability to reach England
witch sufficient height to clear the
cliffs.

The Doctor Away From Home When
Most Needed.

People are often much disappointed
to find that their family physician is
away from home when they most need
his services. Diseases like pain in the
stomach and bowels, collie and diar-
rhoea require prompt treatment, and
have in many instances proven fatal
before medicine could be procured or a
physician summoned. The right way
is to keep at hand a bottle of Cham
b~erlain's Collie and Diarrhoea Remedy.
No physician can prescribe a better
medicine for these diseases. By hav-
ing it in the house you escape much
main and suffering and all risk. Buy
it now; it may save life.
