Save Food Even if War is
Won, Food Agent
Urges Patriots
"Keep on saving food! Peace or
no peace war or no war keep on
saving food!" Miss Elizabeth Cham-
lerhn, federal food agent, urges on
all loyal Americans.
"With the daily reports of good
news from overseas and the seeming
nearness of peace, there is apt to be
i tendency toward laxness with re
gard to the food conservation. This
t must not be, the war is not yet won
md were the armistice signed and
peaceJormally declared, we still
havc'a large and even greater re-
. sponsibility in feeding the world.
Reports have come to the country
, that France is not sorely in need of
food, that the people there have
abundant supplies from which to
draw and that starvation would not
- itare them in the face should Amer
ican support be withdrawn, are def
initely and emphatically denied by
the UT S. food administration. No,
piece of deliberate German propo
janda could do greater injury at
this time. France is short of food
ind would soon be starving if our
! help should be withdrawn. This is
but one instance of the need for our
continued conservation," said Miss
Chamberlin. "Make your plans for
victory remembering that America's
contribution will be seventeen and
3ne half million tons of food.
Whether victory comes in Novem-
' rer, 1918 or in the summer of 4919
America is bound to do her share."

Victory Boys and Girls
Swell War Fund
A volley of inspiring anecdotes
pours in since the Victory Boys and
Oirls got together on the great
campaign. Each ingenious worker
has contrived his or her own way
of earning their pledge to Uncle
Sam ind armed with the determin
ation to "go over the top," their f
dollars are rapidly flowing , in to
swell the fund of humanity.
The recent "flu" epidemic did not
retard their efforts. Not being in
school to enroll, they enrolled over
the telephone and many took the
opportunity of freedom to complete
their sum.
Two Omaha girls during this
period worked in a biscuit factory
to earn their $5.00.1 They were
among the first to pay their pledge
in full.
A business girl living on a Ne
braska farm heard her father say
he wished he could get 'rid of the
mice' in the barn. A few days later
she heard of the Victory Girls' cam
paign. She made a bargain with her
father to catch mice at 25 cents
apiece. Early in the game she found
two nests of them and her father,
fearing bankruptcy, was forced to
lower the price to 10 cents a rrfbuse.
Still undaunted, she went on and
now has completed her sum.
Two other girls from the state
have . sent their pledge, earned by
tarring the roof on their father's
barn.
The boys are filling their guarafi
tees by shining their father's shoes,
driving grocery trucks and selling
papers. One boy reports making
his own bed eachf day and though
it is pretty bumpy,' it is a quick way
of reaching the mark.

How Developing the Roots of th
Hair Produces Remarkable Hair
Growth. A Simple, Eaty Way
That NeTer Fail.
By Valeska Suratt.
r. I HE great secret of making hair (row
I ia in the development of the visor-bf
bair roots. Mere stimulation of the
scalp is not enough. It is the lack of
realisation of this fact which is the cause
of soiuch failure in the treatment of the
hair. The hair roots may be developed to a
very remarkable degree by using the
proper, methods. As a root-developer
nothing can equal the use of beta
quinoL This can be secured at any drug
store in one-ounce packages. When, mixed
with half pint of bay rum ands half
pint of water the developer Is ready to use.
It is not oily, and when used liberally gives
all the results which anyone could wish.
By developing the roots, the growth is
forced, 'it becomes thick, vigorous and
silky, bald spots fill out, and instead of
shrunken, sick hairs which fall out readily
on combing we have strong hair, held firm
ly in the scalp, thus putting an end to hair
falling. '
. " . v
HIDEOUS There is no question about
being able to make the complexion su
nremelr beautiful. In order to bring this
about it is suggested that you omit for a
time the use of ordinary complexion creams
as such, and instead use en article the en
tire force of which goes to the very pur
pose yon want to achieve. This can readily
be done by tne use of iintone, powder
which eaa be obtained in one-ounce origi
nal packages at any drug store. This,
whea mixed with two tables poonfuls of
glycerine in a pint of water prodaeee. a
most exquisite creamy application. This
aaonl ae used liberally. It It area awe
economical than the prepare fi
face creams
commonly sold. You will fwbn find that
all red spots, freckles, muddmess ana
sallowness will disappear and give way to
a lily-like complexion without a single
blemish. i
MRS. P. E. T. There It a simple, sure
snd safe method for the removal of super
fluous hairs, which when once used will
never be abandoned for any other. By
merely moistening the hairs with a few
drops of suifo solution the hairs are made
to shrivel and loosen completely from the
skin, so that you can take your linger
and wipe off the hairs completely with
one stroke. It is so easy and simple that
it has become a real toilet Pleasure to re
move superfluous hairs in this way. It will
not affect the most delicate skin. It can
be used anywhere, on - the face, arms,
shoulders, etc., with perfect sat irty. A bot
tle of this superior article should be on
every woman's dresser. It can be ob
tained at any drug store.
OLDISH The question 'of wrinkles is
a simple one to solve. You can be ab
solutely sure of the result. You can get
rid of thousands of the little wrinkles, and
a great many of the big ones by using
eptol, which can be obtained at any drug
store in two-ounce packages. The con
tents of the psckage are mixed with one
tablespoonful of glycerine in a pint of
water. The cream is rerdy, and it should
be used very freely. This is more eco
nomical than buying prepared creams in
the stores, and which you have found to
give slight results.' In fact, while using ep
tol, you should discontinue the use of anv
other treatments for wrinkles, as they will
be entirely unnecessary. This cream maks
the pores smnller. and thereby refines th
texture of the skin, bracing it up and
making it wore plump and vigorous. It is
really magia
PATIENCE To get rid of the accumu
lations of scale and fatty substances which
constantly form on the scalp, these must
be dissolved away. There is no other ef
fective method, not even soap and hard
scrubbing. By using a teaspdonful of eg
gol in a cup of water and using as a head
wash, your scalp will become gloriously
free and cleaner thin you perhpps hve
ever had it before. This gives added vigor
to hair growth. The eggol is so'd at any
drug store, and for twenv-five cents you
obtain enough in one aekage to last for
a dean er more sham

To feel as fine a3 the proverbial!
fiddle, we must keep the Tiver
washed clean, almost every morning,
ta prevent its sponge-like poreq;
from clocHnc with inHicrestible tna-i
terial, sour bile and poisonous tox- j
ins, says a noted pnysician.
If you get headaches, it's your
liver. If you catch cold easily, it's
your liver. If you wake up with a
bad taste, furred tongue, nasty
breath or stomach becomes rancid,
it's your liver. Sallow skin, muddy ;
complexion, watery eyes all denote
liver uncleanliness. Your liven is
the most important, also the most '
abused and neglected orran of the
body. Few know its function or
how to release the dammed-up body
waste, bile and toxins.
Every man arid wnma'n, sick or
well, should drink each morning be
fore breakfast, a p-Ipss of hot water
with a teaspoonful of l;mestnie
nhosphate in it. to wash from the
livr and bowels the previous day's
indigestible material, the poisons,
sour bile and toxins ; thus- cleansing,
sweetening and freshening the en
tire alimentary canal before putting
more food into the stomach.
Limestone phQsphate is inexpen
sive; any pharmacist will sell you a
quarter pound, which is sufficient
for a demonstration of how hot wa
ter and limestone phosrhpto clT's,
stimulates and freshens the liver,
keeping you feeling fit day in and

Bad Take Salts
Says Backache is sign you have been eating too
much" meat ' y
vv nen you wke up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney re
gion it generally , means you have
been eating tab much meat, says a
well-known authority. Meat forms
uric acid which overworks the kid-ful in a glass of water before break
neys in their effort to filter it from
the blood and they became sort of
paralyzed and loggy. When your
kidneys get sluggish and clog you
must relieve them, like you relieve
your bowels; removing all the body's
urihous waste else you have back
ache, sick headache, dizzy spells;
your stomach sours, tongue is coat
ed, and when the weather is bad
you have rheumatic twings. The
urine is cloudy, full of sediment,
channels often get sore, water
scalds and you are obliged to seek
relief two or three times during the
night.
Either consult a good,, reliable
physician at once or get from your
pharmacist about four ounces of
Jad Salts; take about a tablespoon-
fast for a few days and your kid
neys will then act fine. This famous -salts
is made from the acid oi
grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for ,
generations to clean and stimulate -sluggish
kidneys, also to neutralize ,'
acids in the urine so it no longer ir
ritates, thus ending bladder weak
ness. Jad Salts is a life saver for regu
lar meat eaters. It is inexpensivs,
cannot injure, and makes a delight :
