Today's Talk
: KEEP GIVING AWAY.
BY George Matthew Adam


We give for everything which we
get, whether we intend to or not. But
when we intend to give, we get so
much more.
The drone bee gives its life that its
bee race may be perpetuated on and
on. Its entire thought is toward its
own kind-not its own self. The en-
tire life of the bee, whether drone,
worker or queen, is to preserve its
tcommunity.
And SO it is with the human, the
3noblest form of life-the more that he
gives, the greater does he become.
Keep giving away!
Sometimes we give too much, both
/ for our own good and the good of the
/ one to whom we give. But it is not so
much in the fact that quantity of act
has been performed as in the fact that
a fine effort has been set forth to play
it's way.
Nature is very lavish. Wells says, in
one OF his interesting essays, that
Mature slays:" But that is only so
j that the finest may remain to carry on
its tradition of beauty.
The sun gives its light and heat and
receives back the gorgeous colors of
the flower for pay. The very clouds
gather in substance and brust their
bodies into gentle rain, while the
whole carpet of the earth rises in
ripened harvests to call it blessed.
And we all profit from these mani
festations. We see the hand of the
Infinite pointing our eyes to a motto
s"Keep Giving Away"
L We can only keep so much. The rest
must be given away-or else We
shrink into littleness, obscurity and
oblivion.

Where Our Money Went

If you want to read chapter in high finance
and of reckness expenditure of public funds, pro-
vided by the Liberty bonds which we bought,
read the report of the joint committee on print
ing which investigated the operation of the COM
n1ittee public information of which George
Creel was head
Creel will be remembered as the official CEN
sor of press matter during the war, and some of
his effusions, especially that of an alleged fight
between American naval units and German SUBJ
marines, still cause newspaper men to smile and
grin.
The joint committee in it's report to congress
reveals some interesting facts.
For instance, $4,000 a year was expended
by Creel for the publication of the National
School Service, the object of which the commit
tee says was to convert the teachers of the
country to the idea of the league of nations and
to urge them to teach that doctrine to their
school children

BE PRETTY! TURN

Recipe Of Sage Tea and

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur. properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray. Years ago the only way to
get this mixture was to make it at
home, which is mussy and trouble
some. Nowadays, by asking at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui

bottle of this famous old recipe, i'm
proved by the addition of other in
gradients, at small cost.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell you have darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, glossy and attractive

TO RELIEVE CATARRH,
CATARRHAL DEAFNESS
AND HEAD NOISES

Persons suffering from catarrhal
deafness, or who are growing hard OF
nearing and have head noises, will be
glad to know that this distressing af.
Fiction can usually be successfully
treated at home by an internal medi-
cine that in many instances has eff
fected complete relief after other
treatments have failed. Sufferers who
could scarcely hear have had their
hearing restored to such an extent
that the tick of a watch was plainly
| audible seven or eight inches away
from either ear. Therefore, If you
know of someone who is troubled with
head noises or catarrhal deafness, cut
out this formula and hand it to them
and you may have been the means
of saving some poor sufferer perhaps
from total deafness. The prescription
can be prepared at home and is made
as follows:
Secure from your druggist 1 ounce
Parmint Double Strength. Take this
home and add to it Il pint of hot
water and little granulated sugar;
stir until dissolved. Take one table
spoonful four times day.
Parmint is used in this way not only
to reduce by tonic action the inflam.

any form, or distressing rumbling
kissing sounds in their ears, should
give this recipe a trial.

MANY TELL HOW V0LA-TON|C
BRINGS STRENGTH AFTER FLU
Powers of the Builder OF
Strength" Praised by Thou
sands of People Over Wide

EXPERT AT QUIGLEY'S

The unusual powers of Vola-Tonic
for Strengthening and building up
men and women who are weak and
run down from influenza, pneumonia,
grip, colds and the like have been told
by people in all parts OF this section.
Thousands of men and women over a
wide territory praise Vola-Tonic for
the benefits it has brought them.
The Vola-Tonic expert, who has
been at Quigleys drug store at SOC
Main street, meeting the local public
and explaining Vola-Tonic, will re-
main here until Saturday afternoon.
Many Richmond people have called
to see the expert. Chief among these
were men and women who were
weakened and run down from influ,
enza and other forms Of weakening
sickness.
Explaining how Vola-Tonic builds up
new strength and brings back better
health, the expert said:
"Vola-Tonic stimulates the appetite
Then it helps the digestive organs
take nutrition from food to nourish
and strengthen the organs and tissues
of the body. Vola-Tonic also soothes
the nerves and permits sound, energy
restoring sleep every night. New
strength and better health come as a
result

plant to such an extent that 1908, 184 was saved

Money was wasted recklessly' on scores Of
publications in army and navy camps during the
war, says the report Officers of the Great
Lakes Training Station not only issued an eight
page daily but also put out pictorial magazine
which rivaed any publication in the million copy
class.
When the committee compelled the Official
Bulletin to discontinue, it was put out private
enterprise, the new owners obtaining the name,
good will, prestige, value as going concern, mail
ing lists and subscription accounts without pay
ing the government a cent for the transfer.
There seems to have been a deliberate effort to
loot this 100000 year publication" says the
committees report.
The disclosures of this committee serve to IL
lustrate the high handed manner in which the
public money was extravagantly and foolishly
spent
No wonder that the national debt has not
been reduced. 1t is easy to see why the govern
ment must put out treasury certificates quarterly
and redeem them with the income tax payments.

Nancy's origin lies in the Hebrew

and her earliest forbear was Hannah,
mother of Samuel. But Hannah is a
harsh name because of it's aspirate
initial, so the process of evolution
carried the original word through the
successive steps of Anna, Anne and
finally arrived at Nan.
1t seems curious that Nan was the
forerunner of Nancy, instead of being
contraction of the latter name; in.
