my trouble was caused by the terrible
condition Of my stomach. For two OF

Kicks Hall was the scene of a de-

evening, given under the auspices of
the Y. w. C. A. Despite the fact
that there were several other at

proved a great success. New girls
and "old' men afforded an excellent
opportunity to become better ac-
quainted with each other and to meet
quite a number of the wives of the
faculty members, and other ladies on
the campus. Kicks Hall always well

THE FIFTH LOAN.

The Fifth Government Loan. which
is to be distributed to the people next
spring, will find Americans in all
walks of life in particularly gond shape
to participate largely.
This. it is pointed out by the Gov
eminent authorities, is fortunate, for
Uncle Sam will have to ask for very
large amount in order to meet his re.
naming military outlays. The pro.
ceeds Of the Fourth Liberty Loan were
all exhausted by December /, and
since then the Government has been
borrowing money from the banks to
meet its current bills. These have
been heavier since the signing of the
armistice than before, as the liduidat-
ing of the war machine necessarily
entailed a considerable augmentation.
The American people in the first
three Government loans, furnished the
money with which to construct the
war machine. The Fourth loan saw
It we'll into the victorious drive that
ended the war. But the concluding
battles, the weeks of expensive delay
since the amistice. the bringing home
OF the men who are to be discharged,
and the liqudating of the war con.
tracts must all he paid for with money
to be rasied in fifth great popular
appeal.
The record of business failures in
the United States for the year 1918
shows that American business men
are in splendid shape to make large
subscriptions TO the Fifth Loan. The
twelve months just closed say only
9,9S2 failures. This compares with
1855 in 1917. 1898 in 1916, and 90.
1876 in 1915. This shows. for 1918. a
55ec decrease. The total is the
smallest since 1899, when there were
1897 failures. BY reason of the
great increase in the number Of bust.
ness houses in the country since
1899, the 1918 failures are relatively
even much smaller than then.

IMPORTANT INFORMA.
ton REGARDING REG.
lSTRATION OF BONDS

Important information concerning
the registration of Liberty Loan bonds,
as given out by the bond department
of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chi
cago contains the following quotation
from letter from the Treasury de-
partment:
with reference to accepting sub.
scriptions for bonds to be registered
In the names of persons giving only
initials rather than the full name,
have to say that It is the intent Of the
Department, not for its own sake, but
for the sake of holders of registered
bonds, to have them registered in such
manner as to enable the said holders,
or their legal representatives, to dis
pose of them in the simplest and
readiest manner. Bonds issued to
women under their initials, or under
the initials of their husbands, are not
readily transferable in case of the
death OF the holder.
Though letters of administration
would be issued in the legal name Of
the deceased, and the bonds would be
inscribed in her name, under her in
itials, or those of her husband, as the
| case might be. The letters of admin
istration and the bonds would not
agree as to the name, and therefore
the administrator of Mrs. Sarah A.
Smith, say, would have to prove that
she and Mrs. Thomas w. Smith Tor
Mrs. s. Smith) were one and the same
person. It is to avoid troubles of this
character that the Department has in
sisted on receiving the legal name of
persons subscribing for registered
bonds.
"Of course, the Department cannot
| refuse to issue bonds under initials IL
the parties interested insist upon It,
but 1t is requested that you, in all
cases where II is possible. insist on
| receiving the full names of persons
subscribing for registered bonds

Chiropractic-What 1t Is.

Chiropractic (Kiro.prak-tik) Is the
Science OF locating the cause OF dis
ease and the Art OF removing It by
adjusting the spine, which relieves
pressure on the nerves and allows
natures life.spark, or nerve energy, to
flow freely to and from the brain.
The cause of disease, as the Chiro-
practor finds 1t, is a subluxation Of one
or more of the vertebrae which dee
crease the size of the opening through
which the spinal nerves pass, and
impinge or press them, hence shut off
a portion of the nerve supply to the
organs or parts, and the result will be
disease, deranged functional activity.
A normal nerve supply to any organ
or part Of the human body generates
normal function and maintains health
In adjusting the vertebrae to re.
lease the pressure, the Chiropractor
uses and needs nothing but his hands.
The whole object Of his work is COM
pleted when this pressure is removed
Nature does the curing. In some cases
daily adjustments are necessary for
time. In other cases, however, three
adjustments week will bring splen-
did results. The Chiropractor should
be the Judge as to the frequency Of
the adjustments.
