FOOD IS CURE

cine for Spirit Of Unrest. How
War Savings Stamps Help.

President Wilson has asked for food
to stop the wave Of Bolsheyism roll
ing westward out Of Russia. No intel
ligent person doubts the value Of food
as first aid, but at bottom the secur-
ity o. our institutions rests upon the
working interest the people take in
those institutions.
Citizens having no interest Ia gov
srnment, no economic interest in the
success Of that government, are apt to
be the first victims OF vicious propa-
ganda or unbalanced political theo-
rists. On the other hand men and
women who have invested in their
government either by way Of conduct
ing private enterprise under its pro-
lection or through direct purchase of
government securities have something
at stake and desire to maintain stable
institutions. Such persons are not
necessarily reactionists. They may
be quite progressive and anxious for
reform where reform is needed.
Consequently the effective barrier
to Bolshevism in America today is
thrift and investment. The philosophy
must reach into the workshops OF the
nation. It is reaching into those work
shops and into the schoolhouses OF the
nation in the form Of the Thrift
Stamp and the War Savings Stamp.
When everybody in America is buy
ing Thrift and War Savings Stamps as
a habit one won't hear much about
Bolshevism in America. 1t is the
financial and patriotic duty Of every
American who loves real liberty to
get the Thrift Stamp habit NOW.

THE MAKING OF
A FAMOUS
MEDICINE
How Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound
Is Prepared For
Woman's Use.

A visit to the laboratory where this
successful remedy is made, impresses
even the casual looker-on with the reli-
ability, accuracy, skill and cleanliness
which attends the making of this great
medicine for woman's ills.
Over $50, 900 pounds of various herbs
are used annually and all have to be
gathered at the season Of the year when
their natural juices and medicinal sub
stances are at their best.
The most successful solvents are used
to extract the medicinal properties from
these herbs.
Every utensil and tank that comes in
contact with the medicine is sterilized
and as final precaution in cleanliness
the medicine is pasteurized and sealed
in sterile bottles.
1t is the wonderful combination OF
roots and herbs, together with the
skill and care used in its preparation
which has made this famous medicine
so successful in the treatment OF
female ills.
The letters from women who have
been restored to health by the use OF
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound which we are continually puD-
fishing attest to its virtue.

THRIFTY HOUSEWIFE
MAY HAVE LUXURIES
War Savings Stamps Furnish An
Easy Way to Obtain Money
for Conveniences.

Although a family may not be
wealthy enough for the LADY OF the
house to have ell the little convent.
ences she wants, through Thrift and
War Savings Stamps the government
has provided a way fer the housewife
to fit up her kitchen, paint the house,
furnish her spare room or embellish
the parlor.
These women who were so wise as
to begin saving systematically early
in 1918 have nice little sums invested
in War Savings Stamps by this time.
Eleven War Savings Stamps, some
Of which cost as little as $412 apiece,
will buy a frst-class kitchen cabinet.
In many instances. the housewife
would not have saved anything to
speak of, had it not been for the War
Savings Stamps.
Women are quick to grasp the bene'
fits from habits of thrift Numerous
reports have been received at district
headquarters of the War Loan Organ
ization Of the Fifth Federal Reserve
District Of women who have started
in by putting quarters in Thrift
Stamps and who have been enabled
to buy desired articles to brighten
their homes.
AS soon as a War Savings Stamp il
bought, it begins earning more
money. War Savings Stamps are
practically ready money. They are
redeemable with accrued interest at
the post office on ten days. notice, but
the longer they are held, the more
money they make for their holders.

MANY SECRET ORDERS
ORGANIZE FOR THRIFT
More Than Sixteen Hundred Lodges
With Thousands Of Members Work.
Ing to Make Thrift a Happy Habit.

Thrift, as q movemnet Of the UNI
ted States Treasury Department, has
been indorsed by more than sixteen
hundred lodges Of fraternal orders in
the Fifth Federal Reserve District.
According to figures given out today
By the War Loan Organization OF the
District, these lodges have more than
enc hundred and thirty-six thousand
members, and not only are all these
nembers urged to join War Savings

ing their Treasury funds in War Sav.
tngs Stamps.
Some three hundred lodges, with a
membership exceeding thirty-four
thousand, are forming societies in
Maryland. Among the orders repre-
sented there are the Knights OF
Pythias, Shield of Honor, Maccabees,
Red Men, Knights OF the Golden
Eagle, Woodmen Of the World and
Knights of Columbus.
In Virginia the Woodmen of Amer.

FARMERS TURN SALES
INTO SAVING STAMPS
Odd Crops Of Great Aid to Thrifty
TIllers Of Soil In This District.

Farmers WHO are making a habit
Of getting 4 few Thrift Stamps every
time they market anything from
their farms are finding that they are
able to save regulaly and that they
do not miss the small amounts In
vested. The average farmer in this
section of the country depends large
" on his money" crop, which he har-
vests once a year. Almost every one
Of them, however, grows something
else which he markets at odd times.
An occasional load OF hay may be
taken into town and sold. The thrifty
farmers also plant peas, beans, okra'
lettuce, beets or some Of the other
vegetables which thrive in the South
and for which there is ready market.
Butter and eggs form staple articles
TO be marketed between seasons.
BY buying just few Thrift
Stamps each time the farm wagon
makes a haul to town, the farmer OF
his wife is providing fund which they
WILL be able to turn to good account
later on, for when these Thrift
Stamps are exchanged for War Saw
inxs Stamp, they increase in value
automatically, and may always be
turned into cash on ten days written
