SAYS THRIFT IS
CUREFOR H.C.L.
Wells Fargo Nevada Bank, in
Review of Conditions, Shows
Remedy Lies in Nation

San Francisco.-People should
shop for lower prices, reduce their
consumption, practice thrift, utilize
for their savings Liberty Bonds. War
Savings Stamps and Treasury Savings
Certificates, says the Wells Fargo Ne
vada National Bank, in its monthly
review. analyzing the hight cost OF
living. High prices are due to the
following causes, the bank review
points out:
Personal extravaganza on the
part OF those who have been re-
ceiving unaccustomed profits or un-
usual wages.
"Profiteering, the seizing by bus
iness men of the opportunity offered
by heavy demand to manipulate the
supply so as to yield undue profits.
High rates of wages, which in
crease the cost of commodities at
every stage.
General imitation of credits and
circulation, including bank deposits.
What We may look and hope for
mental action is an awakening of
the nation to more of a natural
reaction against paying high prices.
People should take pains to avoid
paying them by shopping for lower
prices, by reducing their consump-. i.
lion, practicing thrift, utilizing for
their savings Liberty Bonds. War
Savings Stamps and other opportun-
tiles for gilt-edge investment now
open to them.
This attitude will constitute a
strong influence in lowering prices,
down to the point at least necessi-
tated by basic conditions, and, these |
latter conditions being fundamental. |
must be left to work themselves out"
The American National Bank in its |
letter makes the following !
statement regarding the cost of
living:
There are several remedies that |
may be applied, and gradually will |
be applied, to reduce the cost of |
living, but the most essential is to
get down to business, work full time,
waste nothing and do without a lot
If unnecessary things which consume
n their making much valuable ma
erial and human energy"

President Butler of Columbia

Only Remedy

San Francisco. o.-Presiden Nicholas
Murray Butler of Columbia Univer-
sity. speaking here before the Com
mercial Club, said. furnishing prof.
teers is d good thing, but it won't
reduce the cost of living, II we had
all their boarded goods It would do
little good.
Only the operation of inexorable
economic laws can bring us back to
tolerable conditions. The remedy is
to save, TO practice public economy
and private thrift We must save
and Invest in productive industry.
Borrowing for non-productive rea-
sons mean bankruptcy.
In the opinion of the best econo-
mists in the United States the peoples
greatest weapon against high prices
is the Governments Thrift and War
Savings Stamps. Every family should
have budget, Just as every success
fnl business has budget The first
thing on that budget should be the
amount to be saved from the weekly
or monthly income--not the amount
to be spent. Make what you save
govern the amount you spend, not the
amount you spend govern the amount
you save.
war Savings Stamps bring per
cent interest, compounded every three
months. Hit high prices below the
belt by investing in United States
securities. The dollar you save today
will be worth twice as much Ave years
from now.

"Chiropractic First
Is Health-Safety First"
~ Reasons
for Adjustments

4. All life is transmitted by
way of the spinal nerves.
2. The backbone is the pipe
line.
3. Nature made the backbone
jointed and flexible to per-
init bodily movement.
a. The "a movable joints of the
backbone can become out of
alignment from strain. jar.
accident or the profound
relaxation of sleep or sick
ness.
5. This defective alignment of
any one or more Joints
causes pressure upon spinal
nerves at their point of exit
from between the joints of
the spine.
@. The exit for spinal nerves is
between points. The free
dom or openness of the exit
depends upon each joint be-
MS
with the next one.
Z. The chiropractor discovers
this lack of alignment by
the sense of touch.
8. He restores alignment by an
adjustment made by hand.
o. The result of the adjust
ment is to free the nerve for
the transmission of its full
amount of nervous vigor.
10. After the nerve is freed, Ma
ture restores the normal
condition, HEALTH.
II. Neglecting the spinal con-
ditions invites disease and
unhappiness.

When pain
rocks the
cradle

When pain rocks the cradle father walks the
floor. The tiny folks, when healthy, are
squirmy and active beyond all comprehension,
and this very activity is apt to cause slight or
serious displacement of the tiny movable joints
of the backbone.
One baby of three weeks, as sweet as dimple
up to that time became colicky and cried almost
continuously. The mother didn't know that
baby could be given spinal adjustment-its an
operation as gentle as picking them up-so was
surprised when the fretting stopped at once The
little exhausted body fell into deep Sleep There
was no more collie.
