WORRY AND NERVOUSNESS
CAUSE HEADACHES
Hollands Headache Tablets End
Them.

Broodng over trouble, a long days
work, or any heavy mental labor,
brings on nervousness and very often
a headache. As soon as the pain starts
put a Hollands headache tablet to
work They are swift, certain and
safe and usually conquer the tormen-
tor inside of half an hour.
The formulate by which they are
made is scientifically correct and It
is absolutely safe to use them as pre-
scribed.
Sick headaches, throbbing or dull
pain headaches all yield to this treat
ment.
On every genuine tablet you will
find the initials HIT. Accept no sub
stitute. Bottle of "a tablets-30 cents

Another way to determine how ones
earnings compare with his 1918 wages
is to multiply his present weekly sti-
pend in dollars by SO cents.
What Causes n. c. L.?
/ can positively account for 23.5 of
the high cost OF living. It goes into
the federal treasury. Uncle Sam is
taking from the people $1,000. 900 600
year more than he took in 1913. He
gets it anywhere he can find il. He
tells the business men to raise it. They
add It TO rent, food, fuel, clothes,
amusements. It cost the 10000 900
families in America s21. 28o, 900 900 to
exist in 1913. These 20 millions OF
familise must pay this extrafive bill
ions. Since 10000. 900 of these families
pay no income tax,tit is added TO their
living costs and the men from whom
tey buy food, clothes and fuel hand it
over to Uncle Sam.
Everybody a Taxpayer
In 1919 every family paid Uncle Sam
5000. One who thinks the men with
big incomes pay the taxes are as blind
as the old fashioned person who used
to think the saloonkeeperst kept up the
government Who pays the excess
profits tax? The man in the street,
OF course. He also pays about IS for
every 81 Uncle Sam gets.
Subtract this 23.5 per cent from the
IS per cent increase in the living cost,
leaves CAS- per cent increase. That is,
this would be the normal increase in
the cost of living.

Of their present scale there would make

How Do You Stand?
Each person may figure how Mr..
Highcost is affecting him. The pro-
cess is to consider your 1913 wage or
salary at 100 per cent. Ascertain what
per cent increase has been since then
and add it to the 100 per cent. This
gives your index number. If your in
crease has been SO per cent, then your
index number is 16o. Subtract this
from 1873, the index number Of the liv-
ing cost-this particular case gives %.
Now divide this by your index number
result It's per cent behind H. c. l.. If
your index number is more than 1SS,
then subtract from it the 1SS and
divide the result by 1Ss, TO determine
how much you are ahead of H. c. L.
Dollar Has Shrunk
1t is said if you melt the dollar down
and take the contents to metal
buyer. he will give YOU s1.o5 for it.
But take il to the general merchan-
disc store and you get SO cents for it.
