Derivation Of "MaIor."

Major, like mayor, is from the Lat
in word major, greater, the compara-
tive of magnus, great. The French
for the same adjective Is majeur, the
italian maggiore; mayor, by the way,
is the Spanish form. A major Is
"greater" than captain, but less than
n lieutenant colonel. He is the lowest
field officer.

Musical Expression In Children.

Musical Expression In Children.
A writer says: "rhe greater part OF
children's time is spent in elaborate
impersonatiOn and mnke-believe, and
the entire basis OF their education is
acquired through this directly assimi-
lative faculty" This applies most
forcibly to music and gives to those
who have the care of children almost
unlimited opportunity for developing
musical expression.

worth of War Savings and Thrift
stamps have been sold by the govern
heht IN the Twelfth Federal Reserve
District since Uncle Sam opened his
thrift campaign in 1918 to help finance
the war. In other words" said Rob-
ert Z. Smith, director of the War Loan
organization in the Twelfth District,
the people of California, Oregon.
Washington, Idaho, Nevada, Utah and
part of Arizona have added that much
to the working capital of the nation
and the West out of their savings, nor
to mention the tremendous sum they
nave saved by purchasing Liberty
Bonds"
VI course many persons who bought
Ihrift and War Savings Stamps have
cashed in their securities with amaz.
Ing shortsightedness, but the wiser
purchasers are holding their stamps
until they maintain their full maturity
value. Those persons who have
cashed in their War Stamps or their
Liberty Bonds and have spent the
money have lost twice the amount they
saved because, no matter what they
bought. they paid nearly twice as much
for it as they would have paid less
than five years from now," said Smith.
Prices have risen more than 100 per
cent since 1914 They will drop at
least so per cent in the next few years
and will eventually get back to the
1914 level. Now is the time to save"
Smith who is a successful financier,
said: I'VE have high prices because
OF the expansion of credit and conse-
quent imitation. We won't have low
prices until the people contract the
currency by saving" Save by invest

Fraternal Order Buys War
Stamps TO Check Waste
and High Prices

Washington-The Fraternal Order of
Eagles, in convention at New Haven,
Conn, has pledged itself to the pur-
chase of $5,000,000 in War Savings
Stamps. This action was taken as a
means for the checking Of national
waste and extravaganza and for the
reduction of the high cost of living
News of the steps taken by the order
was received today by William Mather
Lewis, Director of the Savings Division
Of the Treasury Department.
After adopting resolutions endorsing
the government thrift campaign as a
movement for developing national
habit of saving and approving consis.
tent investment in government savings
securities, the Grand Aerie subscribed
for $2,50O.000 in War Savings Stamps
for distribution among members of the
order.
Assurances we're received from sub
ordinate Aeries that they would sub
scribe for an equal amount for the
same purpose.
Mr.. Lewis Immediately transmitted
a message to the officers of the order
expressing the tremendous .apprecia-
ton of the Savings Division of their
action in promoting the thrift move
ment.

IN OUR OWN HANDS

Solution of the financial crisis super
induced by the unjust cost of living,
is largely in the hands of the American
people themselves, according to the
limited States Federal Reserve Board.
In his letter to the Senate Committee
on Banking and Finance, w. P. G..
Harding, governor of the Federal Re
serve Board, said
whether viewed from an economic
or financial standpoint the remedy for
the present situation is the same, name
" to work and to save; work regularly
and efficiently, in order to produce and
distribute the largest possible volume
Of commodities, and to exercise econo-
mics in order tlat money, goods and
services may be devoted primarily to
the liquidation of debt and to the sat
isfaction of the demand for necessities,
rather than to the indulgence IN ex-
travagance or the qualification OF a
desire for Injuries
America must both work and save
There are many ways to work but only
ono vav to save. That is to save hrst
and spend afterwards, to put aside the
first dollar that comes in, not the last
dollar that goes out It was to make
possible the saving of even the smallest
sums and their safe investment that
government Savings Stamps and Treas
ury Savings Certificates were offered to
the American people.
Students of economics declare tnat
this country is on a magnificent pros
perity debauch. Dealers in jeweiry' ex-
nensive apparel and food delicacies
tbron ohout the country say the demand
for their wares is unprecedented and
that huyers do not care what they pay
for them.

A FAMILY
MEDICINE
In Her Mothers Home, Says This
Georgia Lady, Regarding Black
Draught. Relief From Head
ache, Malaria, ChiIIs, Etc.

Ringgold, Ca Mrs. Chas. CASTOR,
Of this place, writes: "l am user
of Thedford's Black-Draught; in fact,
it was one of our family medicines
Also in ny mothers home, when
was q child. When any of us child
ren complained of headache, usually
caused by constipation, she gave us
a dose OF Black-Draught, which would
rectify the trouble. Often In the
Spring, we would have malaria and
chills, or troubles Of this kind, we
would take Black-D -Draught pretty reg
ular until the liver acted well, and
we would soon be up and around
again. We would not be without it,
for it certainly ha3 saved US lots of
doctor bills. Just a dose of Black
Draught when not SO well saves a
lot Of days in bed"
Thedford's Black-Draught has been
IN use for many years in the treat
ment of stomach, liver and bowel
troubles, and the popularity which it
now enjoys is proof OF it's merit.
If your liver is not doing its duty,
you Will suffer from such disagree
able symptoms as headache, bilious
ress, constipation, Indigestion, etc.,
aud unless something is done, serious
trouble may result.
Tbedfofd's Black-Draught has been
found a valuable remedy for these
troubles. It is purely vegetable, and
acts in a prompt and natural way,
regulating the liver to it's pro per
functions and cleansing the bowels of
impurities. Try it. Insist on Tied.
