This Lady TELLS Her FRIENDS
Mrs. Mary Frlcke. 607 Bornman St.. Belleville.
111., Is just ono of tho many thousands pi ladtos
throughout tho country who, after an agony ot
years, have at last found health, strength and
vigor In PE-RU-NA.
Her own words toll of her suffering and recovery I
noiier man wo can do it: "I suffered with my
tomach, had awful cramps and headaches so I
often could not lay on a pillow. Saw your book,
tried PE-RU-NA and got good results from tho
first hottlo. To bo sure ot a euro I took twolvo
bottles. I have- recommended PE-RU-NA to my
Irlends and all aro woll pleased with results. I
will 'not ho ono day without PE-RU-NA. Havo not
had a doctor since I started with PE-RU-NA, which
was about flftoon years ago. I nm now slxty-throo
years old, halo, hearty and woll. Can do as much
work as my daughters. I feel strong and healthy
and wnlirh nnnr twn liiinrlrnrl nmitwla Tlnfnro T
weighed ns little as ono hundred. I hopo lots of MRS.MAnY PUICKB
people use PE-RU-NA and get tho results I did." An experlonco llko
that ot Mrs. Fricko Is an Inspiration to every sick and Buffering
woman.
If you havo catarrh, whother R bo of tho nose, throat, stomach,
bowels, or othor organs, PE-RU-NA is tho remedy. It Is not now;
It Is not an experiment PE-RU-NA has boon tried. PE-RU-NA has
been used by thousands who onco wero sick and aro now woll. To
prevent coughs, colds, grip and Influonza and to hasten recovery
thoro Is nothing bettor. t
PE-RU-NA will Improve tho nppetlto and digestion, purify tho blood.
Booth tho Irritated mucous linings, oradicato the wasto material and
corruption from the system. It will tone up tho nerves, give you
health, strength, vigor nnd tho Joy of living. Do what Mrs. Mary
Frlckn and thousands more havo done try PE-RU-NA. You will ba
glad, happy, thankful.

She Wets a Peach.
Three-yenr-old Mary Ellen demands
a reason for everything nnd some of
the reasons are mother's sudden inspi
rations. Sometimes she pnsses them
on to other children. The other after
noon a group of children was talking
to the wee miss, all giving her that
sort of confection known as "tnfTy."
Mary Ellen ate it with relish. Sud
denly she turned to the child nearest
her, "Do you think I'm pretty? Don't
you think I'm sweet?" she asked
Ho nnswered In the nllinnatlve.
"Weil," she smiled sweetly, "my
mninum found me In a peach basket."
Two or three of the children giggled
but twelve-year-old Arthur sprang gal
lantly to the rescue. "No wonder
you're such a little peach," he returned.
RECIPE FOR GRAY HAIR.
To half pint of water add 1 oz. Hay Rum,
a small box of Barbo Compound, and ft
or. of glycerine. Apply to the hair twice
week until it becomes the desired shade.
Any druggist can put this up or you can
mix it at home at very little cost. It will
gradually darken streaked, faded grny hair,
and will make harsh hair soft and glossy.
It will not co'or the scalp, is not Bticky or
greasy, and does not rub off. Adr.

you wash them. You can hang them

Lost Her Pie.
In nh effort to combat tho high cost
of enttng, a girl living on the Illinois
car line sometimes carries a midday

lunch she failed to put In a small pie,
so rather than Untie the package sho
simply put the pie in a paper sack
and put It In a pocket of her coat
She had to stand nil tho way down
town nnd In some manner the pie got
crowded out of her pocket so thnt
when she started to lenve the car tho
pie fell out of the sack face down on
the floor of the cnr. And It was n
soft berry pie, too. Indlnnapolls

So Subtle!
. "Not all tho poets," observed a fre

"I know of one poet, grently In

was not exactly n fluent dispenser of
epigram. He was Invited to the house
of a great lady of tho Faubourg St
Germain, nnd as soon as he entered ho
became tho center of n circle of ad
mirers, who waited vainly for somo
subtle or poetic conceit. The poet
remained silent, 111 nt ease, red In tho
face, and uneasy of feet.

BORROW
U. S. May Loan You Money on Your Liberty Bonds
WASHINGTON. A plnn by which the government can make $100,000,000
a year, protect the holders of Liberty bonds ignlnst the loss Incurred
In selling to profiteers, and stabilize tho price of bonds has been worked out
by the United States bureau of efll-
clency nnd Is suggested In the annual
report of Herbert D. Brown, chief of
the bureau, which has Just been made
public.
Owners of Liberty bonds of small
denominations have been liquidating
them nt the rnto of from $10,000,000
to S12.000.000 a day, according to Mr.
Brown, selling them In the mnjorlty
of cases, to money lenders who Im
mediately benefit by such discounts
as they can exact and then pass the
bonds on to legitimate Investors who wish to hold them. War savings cer
tificates also are being redeemed on a large scale.
To protect tho original purchaser and correct any Impression that a
Liberty bond Is ay unprofitable Investment, It Is proposed thnt the govern
ment, through the postal savings system, make loans at post oHlce? on bonds
nt a low rate of Interest, with privilege of redemption limited only by the
maturity of the bond.
Tho plnn provides thnt loans be made In two amounts only 15 on u ?fi0
bond, and !f!K) on n $100 bond, the limit of the amount which may h? loaned
to one person being $200. The post ofllce will then accept maturing cou
pons In ll-Mi of interest, and charge on payment a fee of $1 on a JF-15 loan
nnd $2 on a $00 loan. The borrower may sell his bond to the government
with the privilege of redemption any time before maturity.

Compulsory Military Training in the U. S. Senate
LEGISLATION which would amount to n vlrtunl reorganization of the army
with protection from outside- attack us a primary purpose and with com
pulsory military training for boys from eighteen to twenty-one years of ag
ns a leading feature has been agreed
upon tentatively by tho senate mili
tary subcommittee considering a per
manent military policy for tho nation.
While vnrlous minor details of
the plan remain to bo worked out, tho
committee's present ngreement, Senn
tor Wadsworth said, calls for a per
manent standing pence nnny of 280,
000. Ono big army composed of tho
regular army as now orgnnlzed nnd
a reserve or citizens' army Is pro
vided in tho tentntlvo legislation. Of the latter army the National Guard
would be a part, although the details of tho organization of that service re
main to be worked out.
Youths within the prescribed ngo limits would be required to take four
months' military training with provision made for either the regular army
or the National Guard of the various states being used In furnishing this
training.
The youths, however, would be given nn opportunity to elect cllher. tak
ing this training In a lump or of joining the National Guard for a tlxed pu
Hod, during which they would receive the same amount of training as pre
scribed for the four-month period.
Upon completion of this training, the recruits would bo plated in a re
serve army for a period of five years, but under no conditions, Senntor
Wadsworth said, could the reservists bo called upon to perform military serv
ice except In case 'of declaration of war.
"While the bill will provide for compulsory military training," Senntor
Wadsworth said, "there will be no provision made for compulsory military
service."
Virtue Its Own Reward, Even in the Wilderness
RATIONAL park and national forest rangers are usually picked men. It's
xl right they should be. They represent the federal government. Recently
a party of tourists was motoring nlnng n forest road in a lonely region not
far from tho Grand Canyon In Ari
zona. The big car was passing a tiny
brown cabin, trimmed neatly In white
with n green roof, sot In u clump of
juniper and pine near the road, when
one of the party pointed to tho cabin
nnd explained to tho man at his side:
"One of our ranger stations."
"Fine!" tho man returned. "Sup
pose we stretch our legs n bit nnd go
over nnd look around."
On his order the car stopped and
the party, consisting of four nfen and
several women, passed through the two tall posts at the gateway, supporting
the neatly painted sign bearing the name of a national forest and of this pnr
'Icular ranger station.
Late that day, a tired man threw himself wearily from his horse nt tho
corral gale. Ills horse rubbed down and turned out to pasture, the ranger
reached the back door of his cabin, entered and started his preparations for
supper.
There was no indication of the unexpected visit his cabin had been given
In his absence. But us he turned to his kitchen table his eye caught sight of
two white bits of cardboard lying there.
Tlie first had written across It: "I am sorry I missed you. I congratu
late you on the immaculate condition of your station." ISmbosscd on tho
card was tho name "David F. Houston," and In the corner "Tho Secretary of
Agriculture."
The second card had written on it: "I, too. congratulate you on the lino
apiK-arance of your cabin." Printed on the card was "Dr. Hans Sulzer," and
In the corner was "Ambassador from Switzerland."
IVtichigan Establishes Victory Highway Memorial
MICHIGAN has jumped ahead of the other states In providing a me
morial for Its sons who served In the European war. The Michigan
Idea is a Victory highway, a paved road running across the state In a north
easterly direction.
Tho Michigan State Good Roads
association started to work out the
plan several months ago, but noth
ing much was said about it until It
was assured that there would be no
hitch In carrying It out. The con
tracts are now being let.
In Michigan the road Is to run
from New- Buffalo, near the Indlnnn
line to Port Huron. It will be .'Mil
inllei In length and will traverse 12
counties. It will pnss through St. Joe,
Kalamazoo, Camp Custer. Battle Creek, Charlotte. Lansing, Owosso, Flint,
And La Peer. There will bo a northern branch, stnrtlng from Owosso.
through Saginaw to Bay City, where the Dixie highway can be picked up.
Tho various counties along the proposed route havo pledged their road
funds to build the highway. The counties also plan to erect memorial build
ings nnd monuments, also parks. The nnmes of the men who served In tho
army will be listed on these monuments, with a special provision for those
who were killed or wounded. One plan Is to havo memorial tablets by coun
ties or townships.
A double row of wulnut trees will be plnnted along tho entire highway.
These Mill be supplied by tho Michigan state agricultural college.
