MONEY GROWS FAST AT
COMPOUNDED INTEREST
Now Possible For Everyone To Inves,
In Securities Guaranteed BY The
Treasury Department.

[ Government Savings Securities, which
smay be had at nearly all post offices
iwere issued to encourage regular saw
ling and wise investment Many mil
lions Of dollars in the United States
have been put into these securities
land, as a result, tens of thousands OF
ipeople have the satisfaction of know.
ing how steadily money increases at 4
tper cent ,.terest compounded quar-
terly.
The fundamental characteristics oil
Government Savings Securities are
that they are safe beyond question
easily convertible into money, and not
subject to market fluctuations. Such
merits give these securities q distinc.
tive investment value.
The securities are safe because they
are guaranteed by the United States
Treasury Department. They are easily
convertible into cash, because they
may be redeemed at local post Offices
or from the Treasury Department at
Washington, and they are not subject
to market fluctuations because the
Treasury guarantees the price, which
increases by hxed amount-in the
case Of the interest-bearing securities
every month.
There are three kinds OF Govern.
ment Savings Securities: The 25-cent
Thrift Stamp and the 81 Treasury Say.
ing Stamp-neither bearing interest;
the interesting-bearing War Saving
Stamp. and the interest-bearing $25,
800 and $1,000 Treasury Savings Ger
tifcates.
The 25-cent Thrift Stamps and the
81 Treasury Savings Stamps are is.
sued to help people save enough to
buy War Savings Stamps. and these
latter, when enough have been bought
may be converted into registered
Treasury Savings Certificates.
The SIS War Savings Stamps cost
from $4.12 In January to $4.23 in De
cember. increasing in value one ce,t
each month. The value OF the $25
Treasury Savings Certificate increases
five cents month, that of the $1OO
certificates twenty cents a month, that
OF the $1,000 certificates 81 a month.
Like War Savings Stamps the certif.
icates are redeemable at their full
face value upon maturity; that is in
five years from the year Of purchase.

years for diet which was not only

CHAPTER XLVI.
DorOthu Tells the Truth.

The fire had died down now, but a
pink shaded lamp had been lit some little
distance from where the girl sat, and
the first thought that went through
Ninette's mind was; "she looks just
the same-just the same" Then she
saw that Dorothy's face was almost
hidden by banddges and a wave of pity
touched her heart as she went forward.
Il am glad you are better" she said
gently. She sat down on the sofa be-
side her.
You haven't been to see me before, -
Dorothy said.
mo" Ninette hardly knew how to
answer. II though il you had wanted
me you would have asked for me. I
thought perhaps you were not well
enough to see any one except Mr.. Not
hard"
There was little silence; then Dorothy
said slowly:
Il thought you always called him
PETER"
Ninette tried to laugh.
''Oh, no! Why. l don't know him very
well! What made you think I did,"
Dorothy shrugged her shoulders.
II thought you must, seeing what has
happened"
Ninette's slender figure stifrened-

PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
By David Cory

You remember in the last story that
little Puss Junior was travelling with the
man and his trained bear, and that they
had come to a little village just as school
was out and the man had mads his bear
dance, which had delighted the children.
Now, what can the cat on horseback
do?" shouted boy, who was looking at
Puss on his Good Gray Horse, and l
guess that boy wished he had a pair Of
rcd-top Loots and a horse lie Puss
Juniors, let me tell you
What tricks can you do?" whispered
Puss in his horses ear.
Leave that to me, little Master" an
swered the faithful animal. but see that
you don't slip of my back"
And then the Good Gray Horse began
to prance. and first he stood up on his
hind legs and then on his front legs,
and then he whirled around and around
till his tail stood out straight and
Knocked of little girls bonnet with a
yellow ribbon on it, but she didn't care,
for she was so excited that she never
knew 1t until everything was all over.
Now. Bruno" said the man, take
your hat and get all the pennies you
can" So the bear took off his funny
little girls and boys dropped their pen
MES in It, and when the teacher came out
he put in a dollar bill
Well after that Puss and the man
started off for the next village, but when
they got there. It was nearly shutdown.
So they made a little camp In the
wood nearby, and the man made a
fire out Of dry pieces of wood and
boiled some water in a little tin sauce
pan. and after that he got supper ready.
The Good Gray Horse stood nearby
eating the nice tender grass and the
bear ate some honey and nuts which
the man gave him.
And then, by and by. Puss felt sleepy,
and when he heard the Twinkle, Twinkle
Star singing this song, he fell fast
asleep:

That sails through the dim ocean sky /:
But all l can do is the mist clouds peep

But, oh, do you know, as 1 LOOK dow,

At the children all dreaming away.
Ihey feel sure that from my house IN

am waiting the first peep Of day"
wen when morning came, the bear
wouldn't get up for breakfast He 3nst
lay still On his bed of dry leaves. and
wouldn't even let his master comb his
halr. So Puss mounted his Good GRAY
Horse and said good-by to the man. for
Waat was the use of waiting there IL
the pear wouldn't get up, you see.
AND after a while. as Puss rode along
ue came TO a bridge which was kept by
ntue old woman, who wore a mink
sunbonnet and a calico apron. And IN
the next story you shall hear what
happened after that.-Copyrfght 1871.

asked quietly.
She felt the other girls beautiful eyes
upon her and a vague fear touched her
heart. Could Dorothy possibly know
Had Peter told herr

hide so much spite and bitterness, THAT

Ninette rose to her feet She was quite
white, but she spoke calmly enough.
II can see you are trying to insult

What do you mean, exactly? That
Mr. Nothard Is paying for me to be

Dorothy laughed.

Think she said airily. "As matter
of fact, Peter told me himself that your
father would have left nothing for you
| at all by the time his creditors had been
paid and that as he looked upon you
as sort of-moral responsibility, he
felt 1t his duty to make 1t up to you as
best he could" She looked up at Ninette.
Didn't he sort of adopt your" she
asked pleasantly HE did tell me some
story about it, but I've forgotten what
1t was"
There was a breathless silence; then,
without word, Ninette turned and
walked out Of the room.
Her blood was hammering in her veins
and her hands were clenched. and yet
she went downstairs to the drawing room
again.
Peter bad gone and Mrs. Crawford sat
by the fire, reading. She looked up with
a vague smile as Ninette entered.

Why, whatever is the matter?" She
rose to her feet in alarm "Is Dorothy
worse?" why. NiDette- -
Ninette asked hoarse question:
''Is It true that I have no money and
that Peter Nothard is paying you to keep
me here?"
She saw the flush rise to Mrs. Gran
ford's face and die down again as she
tried to answer:
MY dear child, what are you talking
about? Peter"
Ninette stamped her foot; she was al
most beside herself now.

Mrs. Crawford broke into helpless weep

was answered!
