there will be a flood when this snow
goes off," and so they melted up
some of the snow for wash water.

NAf worlds business will be in

during 1918. mother words,
there will be only "a days in this COM
ing year that are not Sundays or spe-
cial holidays in one or more important
commercial regions of the earth.
The growth of international finance
has made the worlds aggregate of
closed days a serious factor and an
expensive one. Not until now, how
ever, has any attempt been made to
compile an exhaustive list of holidays
for the guidance of bankers and mer-
chants. This task has just been COM
pleted by the Guaranty Trust Com
pany of New York city. The results
have been published in a booklet that
should be a valuable addition to the
reference library of every bank in the
country doing more than purely local
business.
Contrary to the popular notion, the
new democracies of the west enjoy a
greater number Of holidays than their
sister nations Of the eastern hemi-
sphere. Of the 81 nations or depend
encies listed Brazil leads, with "a holi-
days. The United States, with "a, is a
close second, although she, unlike Bra
zil, practically ignores the church days.
Another popular delusion is shattered
when we find that France has only 18
formally observed days and Italy only
%. We had supposed the Latins al
ways outdid us in this particular
Among the other belligerents Ger
many, it is presumed, will observe 20
days next year, Great Britain 16, ia
pan Is and Russia II. In most of these
countries numerous local holidays Or
dinarily observed have been abandoned
during the war
The study of holidays is fascinating
to the historian. Those of our own
country offer particularly rich field.
One of the first surprises in store for
such a student is to learn that the
United States has no national holiday.
The reader will at once think of Fourth
of July and of the Presidents Thanks

1t is when you have a severe cold
that you appreciate the good qualities
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Mrs
Frank Crocker, Pana, ILL.,, writes:
"Our five-year-old son, Paul, caught a
severe cold last winter that settled on
his lungs and he had terrible cough
ing spells. We were greatly worried
about him as the medicine we gave
him did not help him in the least. A
neighbor spoke so highly of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy that 1 got a
bottle of it. The first dose benefited
him so much that 1 continued giving
it to him until he was cured"

A Hint to the Aged.

If people past sixty years of age
could be persuaded to go to bed as
soon as they take cold and remain in
bed for one or two days, they would
recover much more quickly, especially
if they take Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. There would also be less
danger of the cold being followed by
any of the more serious diseases.

THE SCHOOLS AND
THE TREASURY

The tremendous effective national
service that the schools and school
children of the country can render is
being availed of as fully as possible
by the Treasury Department in its
work. In a great number of schools
Liberty Loan clubs have been organ
lied and many bonds also have been
purchased by individual pupils. The
War-Savings campaign is endeavoring
to have War Savings club estab-
lished in every school in the country,
and organized and individual effort is
to be stimulated in every way.
Secretary McAdoo has said that he
would like to see every school house
in the United States an open forum
where patriotism and loyalty are
taught, and center of national serv-
ice in its community among its pu-
pills and patrons. The school as a
medium to reach the people of the
rural districts is of especial value.

ters that we are able to save every
