The ratio of increase In the output

Problems That Are Vexing Statesmen of all Nations May be Solved When Thrift Habit Is Thoroughly
 lncuIcated-

The end of the war finds the United States creditor nation to most of the nations of the world, and economists deeply concerned as to insuring the funding of these debts so as to give us the prosperity to which the condt ton entities us.
 It is agreed that the nations which eve us must be highly prosperous in order for us to be prosperous.
 This was exemplified during the war by our commercial relations with Spain, where our dollar was worth only about fifty cents, because ship ping conditions prevented adjustment of trade balances.
 Sentiment figured largely in pro- posals advanced for our participation in the rehabilitation of France. Slug. gestions have even been made that we cancel Frances entire debt to us. One of the later proposals Is that we divert all the interest payments on our Allies debts to us to Rehabilitation fund"
 Why should not the average man" create a financial rehabilitation fund for himself? The man of ordinary in- come will be amazed at the improve ment he can make in his condition by systematic disposition of his salary or wage.
 A few dollars saved first out of every pay envelope will soon amass fund which may, through making it pos- sible to seize upon the opportunity that awaits every man, revolutionize lifetime
 The first requisite is to save reg ularly, the second to invest securely at good interest The Government has undertaken to underwrite your efforts by offering you War Savings Stamps for investment. They are safe, and are always redeemable at more than the cost. You receive four per cent compounded quarterly if you keep them until maturity, three per cent If emergency demands that you cash them before maturity

WOMAN SUFFERS TOR
 MENTS OF CONDEMNED

Without mentioning names or quotations from the letters of those who write about the terrible suffering that they have endured, think of the countless thousands of suffer- ing women in America alone and you will realize that wo- man suffers the toments of the condemned. Why is it that wo- men who, as young girls, were healthy, robust, athletic speci- mems of strength and vigor, a few years later become physi- cal wrecks? What is the cause of it?
 Ninety-nine times out of a hundred this rapid decline of physical health and energy is not due to any disease or or ganic disorder that is peculiar to women alone. Ninety-nine times out of a hundred the cause of the rapid decline of your wOmen's strength is the neglect of Acid Stomach, and the pity of it is that practi- cally all the misery, agony and loss of health and vitality that these millions of women endure could be avoided if only people would realize what a frightful- ly dangerous condition Acid Stomach is and how certain and sure it is, if neglected, to make it's victims suffer the tor ments of the condemned.
 Because the first symptoms of Acid Stomach seem trifling nothing is done. There is little belching of gas and sense of sourness in the stomach, a loss of appetite, bad breath, blotchy complexion with now and then ! a sense of dizziness with specks that seem to float be- fore the eyes, but the victim is not alarmed. Then follows habitual or cronic constipation which allows great accumulat- ed masses of undigeSted food to clog up the system, causing dyspepsia, billiousness and a complete breakdown, resulting in loss of weight, health and strength. Then comes the most horrible mental depression im- aginable and after that eX- cruciating, agon6zing pains that bring the sweat out on the forehead in great beads while the hands and feet grow icy cold and the once strong man
 or woman is left limp as a rag and far too weak and help less to battle with life's prob lens or take any part in the joy of existence.
 If only everybody would take Pepsinol before the breakdown
