OF suburban villa and gain admit
lance? writes a correspondent of q
Tendon paper. 1t was Persian, and,
leaping to ledge beside the door, he
stretched out his paw and ratified the
door kn0cker. There was no answer,
and so the cat ratified again. Then
the door opened, the cat jumped down
and walked in. not without receiving q
flick of disapproval from the busy
housewife. She felt aggrieved that n
cat should act so "Christianlike." "All
very we'll in q circus, but in a private
rouse" she muttered, tucking the
buster under her arm again.

THRIFT AND SAVINGS STAMPS
ARE AS GOOD AS GOLD
They Should Not Be Cashed Until
Maturity

People who think that untitled.
Thrift Stamp certificates or War Saw
ings cards must be cashed in before
January /, are absolutely wrong.
War Savings Stamps and Thrift
Stamps are as good as gold, whether
the certificate or Thrift Stamp card
is completely filled or not.
Lewis B. Franklin, director of the
War Loan Organization, of the
United States Treasury Department,
says there is a tendency to cash in
War Savings Stamps and Thrift
Stamps. because their owners have
an idea that only completely filled
certificates or cards will be valuable
after January LIST.
Hold onto your War Savings Ger
t;fcates, whether you have one War
Savings Stamp or filled card" al
vises Mr.. Franklin.
There is absolutely no reason
for cashing a single Savings
Stamp before maturity The
single. Savings. Stamp will grow
in value in the same proportion
as your twenty stamps, and the
government will redeem it on ex-
piration for s., just as it will re-
deem your twenty Savings stamps
for 800. Thrift cards, even the
partially filed, are as good as
ever. The Government will con-
tinuc to sell Thrift Stamps. so
that you can fill cut these cards
and exchange them for the 1919
issue of War Savings Stamps
The 1919 War Savings Stamps will
be sold after January 1 the same as
were the old War. Savings Stamps
The only difference is that these new
blue stamps must be pasted in new
certificate, and not be used to fiji cut
the old certificate. The old certif
Gates. of course, did not have to be
completely filed IL entitle every bel
der to S. on maturity for every War
