HOW THEY GROW

Plant a crop. Nothing happens.
Nothing that one can see.
Be patient. The seed sprouts.
The stalk pushes its way through
the earth. Still no sign Of fruit.
Be patient. Leaves come out.
Buds open. Berries begin to form.
Still no harvest.
Be patient. The fruit fills out.
It ripens. It natures.
Harvest at last-miraculously
increased from little handful OF
seed.
But the , War Savings Stamp
beats thls. There as no element OF
risk.
There is no way to lose. You
must win.
Your money works for you. It
makes more money all the time.

EARLY in the participation Of the
United States in the world war, the
American Red Cross perceived the
value of modifying the school children
of the country and the Junior Red
Cross was organized. Before the war
ended nine million children were en-
rolled and helped in the war fund
and membership campaigns, in chap
ter production of relief supplies and
manufacturing furniture for the ref
ugees whose homes and household
goods were destroyed.
Children everywhere in the United
States responded to the call to serY-
ice sounded by President Wilson as
head of the American Red Cross.
This photograph Is that OF an en-
thusiatic young japanese member OF
the Junior Red Cross Of Spokane,
Wash, starting out on the ambitious
undertaking of collecting "a mile OF
pennies" for war relief. A compre-
hensive peace program is now being
worked out for the Junior Red Cross,
which is being held intact.

Most Eminent Medical
Authorities Endorse II.

DR., Eberle and DR.. Braithwaite as
well as DR.. Simon : all distinguished
authors-agree that whatever may be
the disease, the urine seldom fails in
furnishing us with clue to the princi-
pies upon which it is to be treated,
and accurate knowledge concerning the
nature of disease can thus be obtained.
If backache, scalding urine or frequent
urination bother or distress you, or If
uric acid in the blood has caused rheu-
matism, gout or sciatica or you suspect
kidney or bladder trouble just write DR..
Pierce at the Surgical Institute, Buffalo,
NY; send a sample of urine and de-
scribe symptoms. You will receive free
medical advice after DR.. Pierce's chemist
has examined the urine = this will be
carefully done without charge, and you
will be under no obligation. DR.. Pierce
during many years of experimentation
has discovered a new remedy which he
finds is -thirty-seven times more power
full than lithia in removing uric acid
from the system. Ii you are suffering
from backache or the pains Of rheuma-
tism, go to your best druggist and ask
for 50-cent box of "Anuric" put up
by DR.. Pierce. DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription for weak women and DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery for
the blood have been favorably known
for the past forty years and more. They
are standard remedies to-day-as well
as Doctor Pierce's Pleasant Pellets for
the liver and bowels. You can get
sample of any one of these remedies
by writing DR.. Pierce.

U. S. NOT TORETURN
FOE PROPERTY HERE

PHILADELPHIA March 1.-That
the United States Government has
no intention Of returning to the
original German owners the enemy
industries in this country which were
seized during the war was made
plain here tonight by A Mitchell
Palmer, Alien Property Custodian.
and just recently nominated to be the
new Attorney General, in a speech
before the Swarthmore Club.
The enemy investments in the
United States were divided into two
classes. Mr.. Palmer pointed out; first,
the private investments OF individual
German subjects who, attracted by
the Possibilities in America, invested
their funds in a small way in this
country; second. the Investments
which have been made by combined
capital in Germany, having close af-
filiations with the political and finan-
cial powers of the German Empire.
Speaking in a general way" Mr..
Palmer said, investments, in the
first class were friendly. And as to
them the Alien Property Custodian
IS constituted a sort Of trustee, or
guardian, to see that they are con-
served and protected as against the
time when the treaty Of peace or
act Of Congress shall make final dis
position thereof in kind.

FAILURE TO PASS LOAN
BILL WILL CAUSE CHANGE
IN TREASURY'S PROGRAM

Failure OF Congress to pass the
victory loan bill. authorizing the Sec
retary of the Treasury to issue short
term notes and certificates to the
amount OF $1,000, 600, 600. will necessi-
tate a drastic change in the present
Elahs of the Treasury Department
for raising money to meet the ordi-
nary running expenses Of the Govern
ment and war obligations, according
TO department officials.
II the loan bill is blocked. II is
most likely that the victory loan
will be a $4,000, 600, COO bond issue
Secretary Glass has the authority, by
virtue Of previous loan legislation, to
Issue five billion dollars worth Of
bonds, bearing interest at the rate Of
AZ per cent and maturing not sooner
than fiVe years after the date of issu-
ance. The loan bill now being held
up in the Senate provides for the issu-
ance of shOrt-term notes to mature
within one to five years, the interest
rate to be fixed by the Secretary of
the Treasury. 1t has been indicated
that the Treasury Department favors
the short-term securities, as 1t is be-
heved that there will be a better
market for short-term notes.
Previous loan legislation also
makes IL possible for the Treasury
to issue $4,000 600 600
worth more of Treasury certificates.
which would bring the total of this
form of notes up to $S,0OO,O 600. 600.
Treasury officials estimate that
about OO,0oO,OOO will be co,Iected
in taxes by April l. At least half Of
this sum is expected to be paId in
the form of Treasury certificates,

cepted in the payment of taxes

ALLIES LIMIT FOE
ARMY TO 100000

PARIS, March "A maximum
German army of 100000 officers and
men, peace strength, is provided for
in the report of the military repre-
sentatives on the supreme war coun-
Gil, submitted to the peace confer
ence by Marshal Ferdinand Foch at
the Quai d'Orsay yesterday after
noon.
The memorandum also limits the
amount Of war material to be main
tanned by the German government and
outlines the scheme of organization
for the new German army, rendering
it impossible for Germany to sudden
ly summon millions to the colors.
N. Klotz, French minister OF A.
nance, also appeared before the peace
conference this afternoon, in behalf
of the finance commission and pre-
sented the method, to be written into
the peace treaty, by which Germany
is to pay her war debts.
The report presented by Minister
Klotz also contains a wealth of mat
ter concerning the financial interests
OF the allies in Russia and the method
for reclaiming millions of dollars ad-
vanced to the late cars government.
There also is embodied in the report
an exhaustive mass Of data.

enue' bill just signed it was estimated
that the expenditures for the fiscal
year would be $4,000, 100000 Some
Of the Senators at that time, he said,
believed these estimates were too low
and that the total expenditures would
reach $20.0O0,O 100000. Senator Sim
mons said his personal opinion was
that the total would be at least SI9,-
OO00OO,OOO. Nearly all Of this in
debtedness has been incurred already.
To Rely on Borrowing.
To meet this indebtedness, Senator
Simmons continued, the Government
has to rely upon borrowing except
for the $4,000, 900, 900 which is to be
raised in taxes under the revenue
law. He added:
at is evident that unless the Gov
ernment is to default it will be neces-
sary to raise $4,000, 100000 by bor-
rowing. We have already raised
$1,000. 600, 900 by the various Liberty
bond issues and $1,000. 100000 by war
savings certificates, and therefore it
is necessary to raise $4,000, 900, 900
by further borrowings. There can be
no further taxation"
Senator Simmons explained that the
for the sale of the bonds of
previous issues were most favorable
as the war was still on and millions
Of the American soldiers were in Eu-I
rope. At this time, however, he ex-
planned, conditions are radically dif-
ferent. Secretary Glass has confided
to the Senate and House committees
that it will be impossible to float the
new bonds at par: the patriotic slim
illus to the purchase of the bonds has
Secretary Glass is re-
ported to have said. and disposal Of
the issue will be extremely difficult.

The report fails to comply with the
demand made in the resolution By

adopted early this week, demanding
of Palmer a full list OF the persons
on his payroll and the amounts paid
each. The report enumerates all the
clerical force drawing salaries of
$4,000 a year and less, but does not
