SHOULD INVEST INTEREST
FROM LIBERTY BONDS IN
WAR SAVING STAMPS

The United States Government is
going to pay 1929, 050.S1 to residents
Of the Sixth Federal Reserve District
on September 18th. That is the sum
represented by the semi-annual in
terest coupons ON Liberty Bonds of
the third issue held by residents of
Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana,
and Tennessee.
Total sales of Third Liberty Loan
Bonds in the Sixth District amounted
to $107, 649, 450 of which, bankers de-
clared yesterday, an overwhelming
proportion is still in the hands of the
original buyers. The annual interest
return at four and quarter percent
amounts to $4,59O, 1O162, Of which the
sum to be paid out on September 18th
is one half,-$2, 1896, 5O5O.S1.
That interest recipients should re-
invest their Third Liberty Loan inter-
est in War Savings Stamps so that
it may be safe and at the same time
may increase at the rate of four per-
cent compounded quarterly is the adj
vice sent out by the Treasury Depart
men through Silas w. Davis, Director
Of the Sixth District War Savings Or
ganization. With War Savingc
Stamps selling at $4.2O in September,
the semi-annual interest on two $1OO
bonds will be more than enough to
buy War Savings Stamps.

ing help to the Government for it will

 After doing practical work in bak- ing she can tell at a glance which of the ads for shortening, canned foods, etc. ring true and fulfill her individual needs. She reads her magazine or newspaper advertisements in the home atmosphere and makes her own decisions from her own experiences.

Love Affairs of a Lonely Woman
By MART HA1x

No. 47.
 Jane could not fathom the strange looks of the other boarders in the dismal din- ing room. An old man sitting across the ta ble neglected his small allowance of sistency which caused her tired hands to trembie.
 It seemed an eternity before she com pleted the wretched dinner. She hurried from the room, leaving most of the food untouched.
 As she left the buzz of conversation which had been so noticeable by it's ab- Sence during her presence, now sprang up, and Jane realized that she had in truth been the exposure of criticism. /
 Mrs. Selden protruded her head from her door by the landing as Jane passed, and smiled with the oily, treacherous ex- pression once more.
 Going out again tonight, with your fine friends, dearie?" she asked, ingratiating- ly. After hard days work I suppose you need little diversion.''
 Jane ignored the remark and walked with increasing slowness up the carpeted stafra How discouraging it all was. How miserable the realization of the fond dreams which had brought her to New York to seek better living conditions, hap pier work and broader friendships than those of Fernbank, the little town which had seemed so narrow and shallow in those other days.
 Tn her room again Jane removed her hat and sank into the rickety kitchen chair by the old white, scared square table set against the single window. She looked out on the desolate vista of dirty back yards, still visible in the late twi- light. This was so different from tho nodding tree tops and the great winding Ohio river which she could see from the small but neat bedroom back in the lit- tie town which she had left such short while beforei
 Janc's head fell upon her arms on the table, as tho hot tear drops suffused her eyes again. She felt tempted to give 1t Ill up and admit herself failure.
 Were it not better to stop now while she had time, and still little money of her savings? Should she not be wise and return before hopelessly engulfed in the great whirlpool of city life?
 Jane knew in her heart that she had done no wrong. She knew that her entire life had been devoted to kindliness, to thoughts of others good and to the seek ing of pure, noble return of her idealism and affection. Her own conscience clear, her knowledge of duty well downe, even though oft-times unrecognized and unap- preciated, were supports to her faith in herself in this moment so near to van- punishment.
