The Value of Thrift 3 This has been taken up in a way with the school E children in Lincoln, who have been encouraged to 2 deposit their pennies in savings banks. In the First 5 Savings Bank they have between six and seven 3 thousand accounts aggregating over $1,150,000. Of ji this number, 1,000 are school children’s accounts ;; whose deposits aggregate over $13,000.

With summer coming along you will naturally soon be more or less peeved at the weeds that spring up on every hand. You may, in fact, be doing a little quiet cussing on the sly. But did you ever stop to think that many of those weeds make good articles of diet? They do. There are ten weeds that can be used for food. They are the dock, netle, sorrel, purslane, milk weed, dandelion, pigweed, lamb's quar ter, marsh marigold, and brake fern. Is the high price of living bothering you? Eat weeds. Would you enjoy a welcome change from the usual daily grind of foodstuffs? Eat weeds. Would you place a meal before your neighbor that will hmake him grasp and wonder where you got such de licious delicacies? Use weeds. And when you want to feast on something that really costs nothing, just simply eat weeds. mimittniimmimmimimmiiHmiimimiimniimMUiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiimiii; L CWt^ul c'ftt aiYi^run^ liiat ^ 'Kt 6an|& IvU mcnw J§|l mu\ Aorit uou/ YOU SEE THIS PICTURE.
