The war is costing the United States ?1000,000 au hour.
To offset this steady and tremendous drain upon the nation's
cash resources, there niut he a corresponding stream of dollars
flow-ins into the national treasury.
Thrift stamps and war savings stamps offer the people an op
portunity to deposit their daily, weekly or monthly savings with
the ftovernment.
In return the government will repay the principal with 4 per
cent interest, compounded quarterly. As an example of how the
investor's money will grow, sixteen war savings stamps, costing 25
cents each, or $4.00 in all, with 12 cents added, will entitle the
depositor to $T.00 on January 1, 1923.
As an investment, safety considered, there is nothing better
on the market today. All the resources of the richest government
on earth are hehind the stamps.

Hardware and Implement company
are not doing business in the farming
implement line, you are badly mis
taken. This line of goods has been
made a feature with this firm ever
since they embarked in the, hard
ware business a few years ago. and
they have been growing very rapid
ly ever since. They have increased
the business from a few huudred
dollars per year up into the thous
ands, and are still growing and
looking for more, and the best of all
is they are getting it. This week
they are unloading two cars of
farm implements and wagons, and
have more on the way to take care of
their spring orders. We are glad to
see this, for an enterprising and
progressive firm like this is surely
entitled to success. They are entit
led to the business of this commun
ity for the simple reason that they
carry the goods that are of a stand
ard . manufacture, and meet the
prices of competitors and on this
basis every man is entitled to the
business of his community. They
look after their trade in a very cour
teous manner and exert every ef
fort to please them all. On what
other basis are successful business
houses established?

THE UNHAPPY HABIT OF WORRY.
Worry is destructive to health. It
prevents the normal muscular action
of the stomach and intestines and
paralyzes digestion. Often some
simple means are sufficient to get
away from this habit, and Triner's
America Elixir of Bitter Wine which
stimulates the intestines to normal
action and helps digestion will be
a dependable ally in your fight with
worry. If you clear your body of
poisonous substances accumulated in
your sluggish intestines, the tired
feeling and irritability will disap
pear. Triner's Amercan Elixir is at
the same time a very palatable
remedy. Price $1.10. At drug
stores. Triner's Liniment for rheu
matism, neuralgia, lumbago, etc..
and Triner's Cough Sedative for colds
and coughs, bronchitis, asthma, etc..
are equally rajiable remedies. Now
is the time to keep them always at
hand and to prevent serious sick
ness. Prices at drug stores: Triner s
Liniment 35 and r.5e. Triner's Cough
Sedative 25 and 50c. Bv mail al
ways 10 cents more. Joseph Triner
Company, Manufacturing Chemists,
