Senator France of Maryland pro-
poses to gather comprehensive mass
of facts about the American nation
during. the coming census year. He
proposes full card index system
of every man, woman and child in the
United States and while painful to
some will be instructive to every
body. 1t is to be an elaborate sur
vey of the man-power, woman-power
and child-power of the nation, avail
able hereafter for the purposes of in
dustry, public health, military or
CARNATIONS, ETC., to degree far be-
yond anything possible under the old
census methods. eff we are to abol-
ish illiteracy, preventable injuries
and diseases, unemployment and
child labor, with all of their attend
ant ills" says Senator France, 1--WE
must know their extent and the agen-
cies at hand for combating them. !"
The census legislation therefore calls
for a card catalogue recording the
main facts about every individuals
life history-birth, education, health,
employment, etc.-and making pro-
visions for keeping that record up to
date. In this manner we would be-
come acquainted with the tenden-
cies of our neighbors and the life of
the Stacker and the anti-American
would be as an open book in which
the government could find the his
tory of the inhabitants. Many evils,
with which the authorities have been
unable to cope heretofore can be
properly catalogued and taken care
of under the new system as it will
be possible to put restraining hand
on the proper parties.

Former Advertising Manager Of WanamaI

One of the finest little jokes stock about
the curiosity of women and cats.
We wag finger at them and tell them in ponderous
humor, "Look my dear, Curiosity killed the cat" And

Curiosity? Why man ought to be ashamed to wag his
finger at the most idle curiosity in the world.
You people who reading this paper simply curious.

HOW TO FIGURE 1T OUT.

Some very clever fellow has is
sued a satire on the government
schedule for figuring personal income
tax. 1t is worth remembering and
further jumbles up the dizzy maze of
schedules A to 2 as laid down by the
government. The wag says:
eff your income is $2,400 year
and you have diamond ring and an
automobile and are married to bru-
nette girl, twenty-six years old, you
take the amount of your income add
your personal property, substract
your street number, multiply by your
height, add your wife's height and
divide by your telephone number.

separated from your plus to Schedule

subtract the multiple which you will
put on line x, Schedule K, entering

Government
INSURANCE

Government insurance policies con-
tain total disability clause, making
them payable at any time you may
become totally and permanently dis
abled, regardless of your age.
No policy ordinarily issued by a
private company contains similar
clause running beyond the age of 65.
Another advantage of Government
policies is that service man, after
his return to civil life, may engage in
any occupation no matter how hazard
Gus, including military service, or may
travel anywhere, without affecting his
insurance, provided he keeps his pre-
miums paid.
No physical or medical examina-
ton is necessary for the conversion
of policies. Physical examination
would be necessary before you could
obtain insurance from any other
source.
You may not be able to pass such
an examination, or if later you try to
get private insurance, something may
have happened to your health in the
meantime and you may find it impos-
sible to get life insurance Of any kind.
Valuable Features.
Your Government insurance is pro-
tected from the claims of creditors.
Your insurance money can not be
taken away from you Tor later from
your beneficiary for the payment of
your debts or those of your bene-
ficiary. This is most important
provision, which insures your insur-
ance.
Government insurance is non as
signable, witch means that neither you
nor your beneficiary can lose the
fruits of your labor and sacrifice by
pawning your insurance.
Neither you nor your beneficiary
ever will have to pay cent of taxes
to the Government on the proceeds
of your Government insurance.
You may pay your premiums by
the month without having to pay any
thing extra on account of the adj
ditional expense to the Government
of collecting monthly premiums. Or,
if you prefer, you may pay quarterly,
semiannually, or annually The Gov
eminent pays all the expenses of run
ming the business.

THE VALUE OF MONEY.

The fact that money saved today
will buy far more, say five years
hence, than it would if spent now
rather than saved, is main incentive
for everyone to put away part of
their income and invest it for future
use according to Theodore Void, gov
ernor of the Minneapolis Federal Re-
serve bank. Present high prices, he
says, are an important factor in the
situation.
''Let US take certain sum of mon
ey," said Governor Void, "for exam
pie, $4.19, the August price of war
savings stamp. If butter is selling
at $.55 cents pound today, $4.19
will buy 7.6 pounds. But, if the man
with the money saves the $4.19 today
and invests it in war savings stamps
he will not only receive SIS from the
government at the end of five years
but will have money to spend when
prices are lower. If butter has drop
ped to 40 cents by then he will be
able to buy 12.5 pounds with his SIS.
In other words the money which
would buy 7.6 pounds Of butter today
will buy 12.5 five years from now.
"This is not necessarily an argu-
ment against buying butter, unless
one is buying more than he needs, !"
said Governor Void. at is true,
though, that the public must save
and that saving in the first instance
is accomplished by reducing consump-
tion. If we consume no more than
we need and produce more than we
have been our surplus will eventually
cancel our debts. They can be can
celled in no other way.
''The case of the $4.19 that will
buy so much more butter FIVE years
hence if saved and invested in war
savings stamps is applicable in the
case of every other article of use
which is now selling at high price,"
said the reserve bank head. "The
man who puts away money now will
be able to buy more clothes with it
five years hence, or more coal, or
shoes or steel or what ever it may be
he will then need. The money will
be worth more.
Economists tell Us" said he, shat
when one person buys goods with
money the ether person in the trans
action is buying money with goods.
When it takes lot of money to buy
goods, when prices are high that is,
itstakes little goods to buy money.
Money, in other words is cheap. Now

if it is good business to buy goods
when they are cheap and sell them
on a rising market it is good bust
ness to save money when it Is cheap
and keep it for use when it is cheap
greater buying power. Money is
cheaper today than it has been for
many decades and the man who saves
now and invests in war savings
stamps is proving that he has long
head in business. War Savings stamps
and Treasury Savings certificates are
among the very best investments in
the world today.

Soldier Had Throat Cut
From Ear to Ear but Lives

Sergeant Sidney Johnston. of Dem
yer, Col, is one man who has had
his throat cut from ear to ear and
yet lives to tell the tale. He was a
pilot in the 18th air squadron during
the world war, and is the owner of
the Croix de Guerre given him for
destroying two Hun airplanes on the
Tout trout.
An eight inch scar around his
neck testifies to the truth of his
story about his throat being cut. He
was taken prisoner, and after being
for some time in the war prison
camp decided tc hide out when he
heard that the Marines had started
their smashing drive at Chateau
Thierry. He was assigned to the
task of carrying bread to the front
line sectors so when he reached a
convenient dugout he concealed him
self. He lay unnoticed for awhile
but finally one German spotted him
and jumped on him. He was too weak
from over work, under-nourishmen
and exposure to defend himself, so
the German threw him backward,
placed one knee on his forehead, and
with his neck open in that position,
slashed his throat, very very slow

it. He says that it didn't hurt him.

Several wealthy New York fami-

Mrs. James Punnett, and of Mrs.
Matthew Astor Wilkes, daughter of
Mrs. Hetty Green, are looking back
with horror to the months when
they had in their employ butler
named Joseph Seed, a very admir-"
able servant" who turns out to be
no other than Richard Won Krebs,
escaped lunatic and murderer with
two deaths on his conscience.
Won Krebs was arrested in New
York last week while in the employ
of Mrs James Punnett, and is now
in the Tombs prison.
In April, 1917, he escaped from the
New Jersey asylum for the criminal
insane, where he had been shut up
and shot and nearly killed her hus-
band.
The murder occurred on November
A. 1914 Won Krebs, after a dis
pute with Richie, walked up to him
ach. He then turned the gun on
Mrs. Richie, and killed her. He hid
in the woods, but was caught and
later sent to the insane asylum. He
escaped after three years there.
? This was the second time he had
been sent to the asylum following a
murder In 1903 he killed a man IN

capped at that time, but was recap

New Disease of War
Is "Snhhinn Sickness

Correspondents now in Europe
have furnished much interesting in
formation as to the effect of war
on the physical and mental states
of the people in general, not only in
Germany and Austria, but in other
countries which have felt the iron
heel of war.
1t has been described thus: Both
men and women suddenly begin to
sob and very often continue Sob
bling, ever in their sleep. Some doc
tors seem to think this malady is
due to unwholesome food, which
causes dilatation; others attribute it
to nervousness alolne.
"In some cases this nervousness
has become so acute that people have
attacks in the. night not unlike an
epileptic fit. The sufferer begins by
feeling a choking sensation, then
cries out, and finally becomes un-
conscious, very often remaining so
far twenty minutes or even half an
hour, after which he falls into a
deep sleep. Afterward he remember
ed nothing whatever about what has
happened. The result of this sob
bing sickness and of these attacks
is of course still further to weaken

When Falling One Has
Realization of It

People have often wondered what
the sensations are in fall from a
great height, but until the airplane
came into such general use there
were few records of persons having
fallen long distances and survived to
tell the story.
Now, however, there have been a
sufficient number to come through
the experience of falling from mid
air and landing alive, that the sensa-
lions have become of record.
A surprising number of air pilots
have told the story Of their falls,
and all agree that the marked char
acteristic of the experience is the
absence of sensation after the first
few feet owing to the fact that the
person falling becomes unconscious
owing to the momentum Of the fall.

ANDERSON TELLS
ABOUT BIG CHANGE
IN W|FE'S CONDITION
Says She Was So Nervous
Before Taking TanIaC That
She Couldn't Hold Cup of
Coffee Without Splitting 1t

~My wife's wonderful improve
ment is the talk of all our neigh
bors," said G. Anderson, who lives
at 1850 Norton avenue. Kansas City,
Mo-, in conversation with Tanlac
representative a few days ago.
when she began talking Tanlac, "
he continued, "she only weighed Ito
pounds, and hardly ever enjoyed a
well day, but now she weighs LAY,
and is enjoying better health than
she has in ten years. For years her
stomach had been in such bad con-
dition that she couldn't eat without
bloating all up with gas and sui
fering terribly with pain and palpi-
tation of the heart. She was badly
constipated and had headaches and
pains in the back every day. Her
appetite was very poor ana what she
did eat seemed to do her no good,
as she was losing weight and
strength. She also had an attack
of the flu and this left her in a
much worse condition than ever.
"She had tried every kind of
stomach medicine we heard OF, but
she kept getting worse until a lady
friend of hers, who had gotten we'll
by taking Tanlac, persuaded her to
try il. Before she had finished the
first bottle she had a good appetite
and was able to digest her food bet
ter. Now she can eat just anything
and says she never feels a sign of
gas, bloating or pain afterwards.
She was so nervous before taking
Tanlac that she couldn't carry a cup
of coffee without splitting it, and
would sometimes drop the cup. But
now her nerves are in good shape
and she sleeps every night Just like
a child. Her headaches and back
ache have left her, and her house
work seems to be easy for her. II
anybody had told me Tanlac could
do so much for my wife 'wouldn' t
have believed them. 1t certainly is
the finest medicine made, and am
glad of the opportunity to tell the
public about it,"
