WILL YOU EVER
OWN YOUR HOME?

After the Revolution, when ques-
tons Of national finance we're up
permost in the minds Of all who de-
sired the prosperity and success Of
the new government, Benjamin
Franklin remarked: "a small in
crease in industry in every Ameri-
can, male and female, with small
diminution of luxury, would pro-
duce sum far superior to all we can
hope to beg or borrow from all our
friends in Europe"
This observation of Franklin has
its application to the building of
home. A little more industry, lit
tie denial of luxuries, and one might
add, little foresight, will combine
to make home ownership reality.
One of the strongest inducements to
the habit of saving is having in mind
all the time definite purpose, and
of all the definite purposes one might
have, none is more worthy, none
sounder economically and none more
promotive of happiness and security
than the building of home.
Many a family struggles through
out its whole history without discov-
ering that all its troubles are due to
the single fact that its members will
not so limit their expenditures as to
leave safe margin between income
and outgo. While present necessity
does not compel them to do so, they
lack the foresight to see that future
necessity that age and infirmity will
force upon them. The man who
today saves for buying a home does
so because he can look little farther
into the future than the man who
goes on spending all his earnings
while living in a rented house, and
leaves the future to take care of
itself He lacks the imagination to
project himself into the future, ten,
fifteen or twenty years, to period
of his life when ownership of home
would afford him the peace and
comfort that no other possession can
give.

When the Skin Seems Ablaze
With Itching and Burning
There's inst one thing to do.

There's just one thing to do.
If your skin seems ablaze with the
fiery burning and itching of Eczema,
real and lasting relief can only
come from treatment that goes be-
low the surface-that reaches down
to the very source of the trouble.
So-called skin-diseases come from
a disordered condition of the blood,
and search far and near, and you
cannot find blood remedy that APP
proaches S. S. for real efficiency.
Bogalusa enterprise and American. (Bogalusa, La.) 1918-19??, 1919-03-27

the proper treatment is through the
blood.
S. S. S. has been on the market for
fifty years, during which. time it has
been giving uniform satisfaction for
all manner of blood disorders. If
you want prompt and lasting relief,
you can rely upon S. S. S. For ex-
pert advice as to the treatment of
your own individual case, write to-
