During the war the government
offered war saving stamps, paying
about per cent as method of saw
ing for people of small means. Since
the war, and to take the place of
war saving stamps, the Government
offered Treasury savings certificates
in denominations of $25, 500 and
81 900, now sold to investors 'at
$2O.5O, $82 and $780, respectively.
They pay per cent if held until
maturity, five years from the date
of issue. About $625, 100000 of
War Savings Stamps, series of 1918,
become due January 1st, 1923, and
the Government now offers to issue
Treasury savings certificates in ex-
change for them, affording the own
ers an opportunity to continue a
safe investment with good interest.
Saving has furnished the life blood
for many nations and insures pros
perity to the people. The Govern
ment is doing everything possible to
encourage saving in the United
State by offering sound and attrac-
tive securities for the investment of
small sums. If you want to save,
and insure your future, it would pay
you to investigate Uncle Sans Saw
ings System.

A WOMAN'S BACK
The Advice of This Canaan Woman is of Certain Value

Many a woman's back has many aches and pains.
 Oft times 'tis the kidneys fault.
 That's why Doan's Kidney Pills are so effective.
 Many Canaan women know this.
 Read what one has to say about 1t:
 Mrs. L. Wickwire, Railroad Ave, Canaan, says: "I caught a cold that settled in my kidneys and made my back ache dreadfully when I did any sweeping or dusting. After doing any heavy work there was a lame- ness in my back and when 1 stood for very long at time my back ached and became tired. Spots and specks appeared before me, blurripg my sight. My kidneys acted ire gularly and 1 was in need of a medi- cine when I began taking Doan's Kidney Pills. A few boxes rid me of the backache and regulated the kidney action. I still use Doan's which I get at Farnum's Store as a kidney tonic"
 Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Wickwire had. Foster Milburn Co.,, Mfrs, Buffalo, N. Y.

 Invested in Industry.

CPrepared by the United States Department

 More fur farmers are engaged in raising foxes than any other fur-bear- ing animal, according to reports to the biological survey of the United States Department of Agriculture. Ob- servationS made in the field by rep resentatives of the survey indicate that at least 500 ranchers are raising sil- yer foxes, and that there are between 12,0O0 and 150O0 foxes in captivity. 1t is estimated that about $8,OOO,OOO is invested in this industry.
 The industry of breeding fur-bear- ing animals has grown because of the
