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

Although family may not be
wealthy enough for the LADY of the
house to have all the little convent
ences she wants, through Thrift and
War Savings Stamps the government
has provided a way for 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 s412 apiece,
will buy first-class kitchen cabine..
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
hair homes.
AS soon as War Savings Stamp is
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

THREE DRY LAWS
PLAN Of CONGRESS
Frame Legislation to Enforce
Prohibition.

Washington, June 21.-The house
judiciary committee voted to split pro-
hibition legislation into three parts,
with enforcement of wartime pro!-i-
bition separate and dist;nct from the
others, which relate 10 constitutional
prohibition and the manufacture of i'll
dustrial alcohol.
Members expressed the belief 1hat
enactment of legislation 10 enforce
wartime prohibition would he sure
before July ], the date the nation will
ego dry" unless President Wilson acts
to suspend the Law. The measure 10
enforce constitutional prohibition is
expected to be much more stringent
than that to enforce wartime plohi-
bition
For the first section the committee
decided to submit in whole lis war
time enforcement bill introduced at
the last session of congress and on
which no action was taken.
While much less drastic than the
general measure, this defines intoNi-
cantS as beverages containing more
than one-half of one per cent alcohol.
1t contains no provision which. would
make ii unlawful for Il person TO
possess liquor.
Members explained that by adopt
ing this plan there would be no con-
fusion later on if the president should
issue a proclamation declaring demo
bilization completed, which would end
wartime prohibition.
A general bill containing the three
separate sections or titles will be re-
ported this week.

EASY START TOWARD
SUCCESS FURNISHED

When q man gets $1,000 saved up
there are always opportunities for a
good investment. 1t is hard to place
much less than that. That is what
healthy men who are self-made ad-
wise young men to begin early and
save the first thousand.
Until we went to war, it was hard
to get started toward that $1,000 un-
less at least one dollar could be put
away at time. Small change was
restless and acrobatic and kept jump
ing out of our pockets into someone
else's.
Now, however, there is an easy way
&c get that first thousand. The
answer IL Thrift Stamps. They cost
only q quarter apiece and can be con-
verted into War Savings Stamps. The
government of the United States
backs these War Savings Stamps with
q guarantee of 4 per cent. interest,
compounded quarterly. Save and sue

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure catarr-
hal deafness, and that is by a const1-
tutional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness
is caused by an inflamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result.
Unless the inflammation can be re-
duced and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever. Many cases of deaf
ness are caused by catarrh, which is
an inf1amed condition of the mucous
surfaces. Halls Catarrh Medicine
acts thru the blood on the mucous
surfaces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Catarrhal Deafness
that cannot be cured by Halls Ca
tarrh Medicine. Circulars free. All
