IA Business Proposition
BY WILL PAYNE.

Secretary Glass said the Victory Lib
erty Loan should appeal to the patri-
otism of the people Of the United
States and not be merely business
proposition.
Isn't that so? 1t was no business
proposition that sent two million young
Americans to France and made nearly
two million more give up their time for
more than year to train for going.
This Victory Loan Is to pay for equip
ping them, sending them over, keeping
them there and fetching them back
VIII you look one OF them in the face
and say, "As soon as you stopped fight
ing and l had given you three hearty
cheers you became just business
prOposltion7"
But the loan is a business PROPOSE
ton, too-this way:
You are Uncle Sam-a hundred odd
million of you. individually. Says
Uncle Sam TO himself, IL owe several
million dollars-owe it now on due and
maturing obligations that must, be met
to the last cent. My credit Is prac-
tically unlimited. / can borrow that
money OF the banks. They've got to
lend it to me. That will mean a huge
imitation Of bank credit-bank loans
all swollen up with my paper-banks
consequently in a poorer condition to
take care Of the ordinary business of
the country.
But If l do borrow the money Of the
banks I've got to pay them back some
time. There are only two ways in
which a man can finally get out Of
debt. One way is to sell some prop
erty and pay up; the other way 10 to
earn more than he spends, saving the
difference. l have no property to sell.
Can't sell the White House or the ma
tional forests. The second way IL the
only way for me. "Shall borrow the
money from the banks now and there
by put off the real settlement, or shall
a hundred million individual Uncle
Sans right now save out Of their in
comes and lend the saving to the col
lective Uncle Sam, thereby enabling
him to pay the bills and wipe the slate,
with no imitation, leaving the banks In
sound condition to meet the needs Of
ordinary busnessT
That is the question. 1t Is your debt.
You owe the money. Finally you've
got to pay it in some fashion. To lend
in on the banks now is the most eY-
pensive way temporarily to dispose
of 1t. To save, individually, is the
best and cheapest way. Even waving
patriotism, ii comes down to q bust
ness proposition. Only the savings
and subscriptions Of the whole public
can take care OF the loan without In
flation.

GLASS Of SALTS If
YOUR KIDNEYS HURT
1st les meat II you feel Backachy OF
have bladder trouble-Salts
fine for Kidneys

Meat forms uric acid which excites
and overworks the kidneys in their efforts
TO hitter it from the system. Regular eat
ers OF meat must flush the kidneys occa-
sionally. You must relieve them like you
relieve your bowels; removing all the
acids, waste and poison, else you feel
dull misery in the kidney region, sharp
pains In the back or sick headache, diz-
ziness your stomach sours, tongue is
coated and when the weather is bad you
have rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full Of sediment; the channels
often get irritated, obliging you to get
mp two or three times during the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids
and flush of the body's urinous waste
get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take a table
spoonful in glass of water before break
last for few days and your kidneys will
then act fine and bladder disorders dis
appear. This famous salts is made from
the acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with lithia, and has been used for
generations to clean and stimulate slug.
gish kidneys and stop bladder irritation.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; harmless and
makes a delightful efervescent lithia-
water drink which millions of men and
women take now and then, thus avoiding
serious kidney and bladder diseases.

VICTORY LOAN AN APPEAL
TO OUR BUSINESS SENSE
AZ q Business Proposition No Man
Can Afford Not to Subscribe to
Full Limit of His Ability.
BY EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS,
Author Of "Tarzan Of the Apes"

hutnor OF u srzan OF tne apes.
There are an infinite number of ex-
cellent reasons why we should sup
port the Victory Liberty Loan.
The finest sentiments we possess
must prompt us to subscribe to this
loan even more freely than we did to
the others. The government must get
money or ii would not ask us for It.
The man who was prompted to lend in
the past through fear that L. he did
not the Germans might get over here
and make 1t unpleasant for him is
mighty yellow" X he will not sub
scribe, now that the danger is past.
Our response to previous loans indi-
Gated that we were thoroughly in ac-
cord with the principles for which we
were fighting, and by our response we
authorized the expenditure of the
sums necessary properly to prosecute
the war. These enormous expenses
must continue for some time. The OBJ
legations involved must not be repu-
dated. They are our obligations as
individuals and We must look upon
them as such. 1t is not only a matter
of necessity; 1t Is a matter of per-
sonal honor for us to meet these OBJ
legations promptly and gladly.
On the other hand, there is in the
Victory loan an appeal to our business
sense as well as to our patriotism.
There is the appeal TO self-interest, for
the loan Is not to be without profit to
us. We are given an opportunity to
invest in an absolutely safe security.
and We will receive good rate of in
terest. AS business proposition no
man can afford not to subscribe to the
full limit of his ability.
And there is another reason why we
should subscribe every cent that we
can rake and scrape together. II is
this: If the government cannot raise
the necessary funds by the sale of
Liberty bonds, 1t must do it by direct
taxation. The government has the
power to tax us to meet these obliga-
tons, and If we are taxed We not only
will get no interest but we will never
get the principal back again.
1t seems TO me that both the wisdom
and necessity for fully and immedi-
ately subscribing this Fifth Liberty
Loan must be obvious to anyone whose
mentality is greater than that OF
child of ten. We are supposed to be
an intelligent people, capable of gov
erning ourselves and others. We pride
ourselves upon our business acumen,
upon our energy and upon our patri-
otism. In the Victory Liberty Loan
we shall have an opportunity to prove
to the world that we are better than
vain boosters, and that we are fully
deserving of the estimate which we
have placed upon ourselves as people.
The time is here. The opportunity
Is here. The eyes OF the world are
upon us-upon you. What the world
shall think of us depends not upon the
action of others but upon what you
do-YOU.
