A NEW KIND OF STACKER.

We are all familiar with the man
who Is afraid to don a uniform, with
the stay-at-hOmes who think they need
five meals a day, and with the bust
ness man who complains that the war
interferes with his business. But here
comes q Stacker with a brand-new
stripe of yellow-the man or woman
who thinks there Is some good reason
for hiding currency.
The movement for boarding money
received Its first impetus from the
war rumors afioat when the United
States entered the war to the effect
that this democratic country might
elect to confiscate savings accounts af-
ter the example Of the two kaisers.
administration that such q thing not
only was undemocratic, but was I'M
necessary, a great many selfishly in
clined persons took money out Of cir
culation and hid It away.
Somewhat later, when the security
markets were unsettled, still other peo-
pie Of this stripe foolishly thought 1t
would be wiser to have a portion of
their tangible wealth boarded In the
shape Of currency than either to in
vest 1t or carry 1t on deposit at the
banks. To large extent these peo-
pie were moved by the fear that some
sort Of disaster might occur which
would put them In want. Probably
very few Of them stopped to consider
the far-reaching effect Of such action.
For one thing, money taken out of
circulation and boarded is always in
danger Of being lost or stolen. For
another thing, 1t does not earn the
owner anything. Worst Of all, such
boarded money cannot be passed from
hand to hand and perform its usual
function Of exchange between the peo-
pie Of the country. Such boarding
makes more difficult the operation of
business, adds another load to the al
ready heavy burden of fighting the
war, and puts the hoarder in the slack
er class.
How much better It would be IL you
are boarding money any place to in
vest this money In United States gov
eminent Liberty Loan bonds. Any
currency you have hidden away Is sim
ply the promise to pay Of your coun-
try; Liberty Loan bonds are also prom
ises to pay, but, in addition, will earn
for you AZ per cent yearly. When
you have invested In Liberty bonds
you have set In motion a great many
wheels In very important machine.
You annually lend money to your gov
eminent with which 1t can carry on
the war to victory. You free money
heretofore imprisoned and permit 1t
to work among business men and wage
earners. You start yourself In a con-
sentative investment habit. Finally,
you change yourself from a Stacker to
patriot.
Stop boarding. Invest In Liberty
bonds.

PATRIOTIC INVESTMENTS.

Law and order underlie all invest.
ments. If life and person are inse-
cure everything else Is In danger.
That Is the reason why the French
poet wrote the lines.
There Is only one future-that of our
country!
There is only one foresight-our
country!
There is only one economy--our
country"
NO matter how many farm mort
cages you may have; no matter how
many skyscrapers you may own; no
matter how many fiat buildings you
may have for rent, or how many fac.
tories you may be operatlng-every in
vestment you have rests on the SOW
ereignty Of the United States Of Amer
lea. The slightest danger that con-
fronts the United States acts as a de.
probation Of every piece of property
you own. Your farm Is valuable to
you because the United States of
America has enacted laws which in
sure your right to the fee and title
of your land. Anything that weak
ems the authority Of the United States
weakens your hold on your farm. Any
thing that cheapens the United States
OF America In the eyes of nations
cheapens all the investments You
have. Anything that tends to bring
the nation into subsection to foreign
powers, tends to bring your invest
ments to position Of danger.
Every 'shrewd investor-every wise
property owner-every sane working
man-knows that the safety of all
persons and Of all property in the
United States rests on the safety Of
the United States as a sovereign DOW
er. II the United States is lost, ev-
cry dollar Of our invested capital is
deprecated or entirely wiped out.
We are engaged at the present time
In desperate war. The issue is our
right to remain "free and independ-
ent." If the military tyrant of Eu-
rope beats us we must be his vassals
and his slaves. To whip him and re-
tain our liberty and to insure our in
dependence, we must win "a complete
victory over Germany. If we fail our
mortgages and flats are worthless.
The moral is: Invest In Liberty
Bonds and Win the Wari

Farmers Patriotism and Profit.

Don't waste your time specializing
on peace. Speculate on war and in
vest your money in Liberty bonds.
The farmer has come splendidly to the
front with his muscles and knowledge
of agriculture and has provided the
allies with food. He has been paid
handsomely for his crops.
If he reinvests those dollars in Lib
erty bonds he will be making a profit
able deal and at the same time pro-
viding his government with the funds
to pay him higher prices for his grain
and HIS corn and oats now in the
ground.
Food will win this war, but It won't
win 1t If 1t must lie In the field and
rot for want of funds to purchase 1t
and move IL to Europe where our
young men are fighting the kaiser.
Invest In Liberty bonds and help
move 1t.
