Man Who once Has a Savings Account
Never Allows 1t to Lapse
For Long.

Here is a banker who has looked
through and beyond the U, s. Govern
ment's Thrift campaign. He has seen
that while the success OF the present
campaign for the sale OF Treasury
Savings Certificates may for a brief
while affect the amount OF his savings
deposits, in the end the campaign in.

buyer, the bank and the community.

Bank, al Cole Camp. Mo-, that deposi.
tors in our savings department can
place their money to better advantage
by buying War Savings Stamps and
the $500 Treasury Savings Certificates.
The average man who once has a
savings account in a bank is never
content until he restores It after with.
drawing his savings. The }1OO Ger

until maturity. q greater interest than
we can pay for savings. And when
one Of our small patrons. by uniting
his savings accom-; in our bank with
his other savings, is able to make an
investment that win place him in the
big class, then we have a big and per
manent patron. That Is one reason
why the bankers get behind this falls
campaign now being wage by Uncle
Sam. And this does not take into con

THE MULTIPLYING DOLLAR.
Money Now, While II IL Cheap, VIII
Return Manifold, II Wisely
Invested.

One Of the best arguments for the
investment Of money In good securi-
ties at this time is the %point-the full
value OF the dollar invested.
A dollar is worth what you can get
for II.
A dollar now isn't worth much be-
cause you can't get much for it. II
is today worth in purchasing power
80 cents as compared with five years
ago. That dollar will in ive years get
back to It's one hundred cents.
II = dollar Is invested now, when
il natures It will be worth twice AS
much, or 81, hence why would not
1920 invested this month, have, in
FIVE years from now, almost double
purchasing power, in addition to what.
ever interest may be earned between
now and that time?
The above line OF argument will ap-
peal to q lot of people, especially those
who are very careful with their say
ings.
If a mai has any debts to pay, now
is a good time to pay, because they
can be paid with cheap dollars, but
1t is a poor time 10 contract debts II
they mature in four or FIVE years. be
cause debts will have then to be paid
With dollars which are worth more In
purchasing power than at present.
OF all times for Investment, the pres,
emit is the best, because Of the above
facts.

No citizen, man or woman,
worker of employer, can fairly
answer the question, "What has
the special session of Congress
done for me?" without a sense
of regret at having voted last
autumn to supplant the Demo
cratic majority. More than two
months have elapsed since Pres
ident Wilson recommended to
the special session the passage
Of certain statutes which were
intended and required to curb
profteering, to reduce or at
least to stabilize the cost of liv-
ing, and to restore business to
the normal status of peace. Not
one of the Presidents recon-
mendations has become law
no substantial progress has been
made toward their serious con-
sideration.
In the House of Representa-
tives the Republican majority
is a composite of factions which
are a unite upon only one poll
cy-that of opposing the Pres
ident. In every question of con-
structive legislation they are an
incoherent aggregation of ca
balls and coteries, unable and un-
willing to cooperate either with
President Wilson or their own
punative leaders. The Senate's
record of inaction and ~recalcit-
rance is known to all the world.
1t has become notorious. under
its reactionary Republican con-
troll, not for what it has done.
right or wrong, but for all that
it has refused to do. Opposing
peace under whatever guise of
patriotism its partisan directors
have chosen to assume, it has
perpetuated every condition of
war save that of certainty.
What do the Republican mass
es think of their representatives
in Congress? What do they pur-
pose doing to correct the evils

Make Life Hard ito Bear For
Many Lexington Women.
Too many women mistake their
pains and aches for troubles pc
culiar to the sex. More often dis
ordered kidneys are causing the
aching back, dizzy spells, head
aches and irregular urination.
Kidney weakness becomes dan
gerous if neglected. Use a time
tried kidney r~emedy-Doan's
Kidney Pills. Hosts of people
testify to their merit. Read a
Lexington case:
Mrs. c. A. Bledsoe, 621 Frank

my kidneys acted irregularly.
My feet were sore and sensa-
tive. My sides just over my hips
become awfully sore and lame
and when | bent, sharp knife
like pains shot through my body.

moved the trouble. / shall al
