Money Talks • You have often heard this expression and it certainly is true. In fact it fairly "YELLS” during the present strenous times. Therefore, everyone is foolish not to get the best and most for what we spend. Economize By CENTRALIZNG your indebtedness with us you will find it real economy for you can borrow money from us and pay cash for what you buy. This will enable you to start anew and on a cash basis with only ONE bill to pay instead of a DOZEN floating around here and there. Old t debts destroy your peace of mind. Ready cash will make you comfortable.

of this character han been greatly re-' 1 dined and is now comparatively light. “In 37 states, comprising 46.2 per » cent of the area of this country and containing t more than 40 per cent of • the cattle of the country, there Is,less I than one per cent of tuberculosis,” • said Dr. Kierpan. “The livestock , owners In those states have decided - that the disease shall be eradicated. In this area there Is such a active sentiment against the plague that it does i not seem too much to expect that with- ‘ in 10 years it will be entirely eradicated or reduced to a minimum. | “inasmuch as it lias been demon | strated that bovine tuberculosis may I be eradicated from an individual herd or a group of herds or from all the herds within a circumscribed area, | there is no reason to believe that the | campaign, inaugurated in 1917, will be I abandoned until it is wiped out in 'every county in the United States.” Dr. Kiernan called attention to the rapid progress that is being made in ! many states where there is a high per- | centage of tuberculosis. From July 1,1917, to June 30, 175,000 ' tuberculosis cattle were destroyed in I this country. When the campaign began it was thought by some persons I that the destruction of so many cattle I would cause a shortage of dairy products and cause alarm among consumers. Hut this has not been the case. The capita consumption of milk has increased and the number of milk cows increased 341,000 head in 1921. s—s—s— WANT ADS EARN—$—-s—s

MZS2SiiS2SESES2S? SHS? SSSc’S? 5? StLS? I OH, WHAT IS LOVE! i •3 By MARY J. HITCHCOCK §?525?52585E5E5E5H5E525Z5?.5E5?5E5?1, (©, 1922. by McClure Newepaper Syndicate.> I •What did the doctor say, SallyT' j Sighing heavily, .ILin looked at his wife’s pale face among tlu»' pillows. Under the softened light of the sickroom she looked so frail—the girlish slenderness which was really one of her chief charms seemed Just skinniness. Sick for several days, she hud failed to get up to prepare his breakfast as usual, and he had hurried home from work, anxiously wondering what the doctor hud said. “He hasn't been here —yet,” Sally answered. “Josie phoned for him first tiling tills morning, but he said it would be lute before he could get around.” “Well, how do you feel?” Jim sat down heavily on the edge of the bed. “Oh, no worse than I've been feeling." It was the best that Sally could think to say In un attempt' at cheerfulness. “You haven't been worrying about me?" "How can I help it?" Jim reached for Sally's hand, and noted with growing concern how hot and dry It seemed. “If anything should happen to you, Sally—” “You would go looking for Number Two In a little while.” Sally’s playfulness did not Irritate Jim. It seemed to make him sad. “I’d look a long time before I found ! anyone like you." Again he reached i for her hand, and tried to hold it, i when Sally would have pulled It away, i “I haven't been a very good husband i to you, have I, Sally?” "Don't be silly 1” Sally told him. “You’ve never heard me say so!” “Os course you wouldn't —” “Because I couldn't." “WeH, in away I haven’t been so bad,” Jim admitted slowly. “I haven't beat you, and I don't remember that I ever got dnink —even since prohibition —but, I haven’t done as much as I might—as much as I ought to have done for you!” Sally pulled her aching bones to the far side of the bed. She had never discovered this crazy streak In Jim. Alarmed, even more than a little frightened, she surveyed him Incredulously. “I don’t blame you"—Jim was speaking again—“I’ve been a brute to you— ’’ ‘‘You've been nothing of the sort, but you talk like a fool!” Sally snapped. Then, as the buzzer sounded, i "Thunk goodness! The doctor! Let him in, and stay out till he goes—dol” Jim recalled the day when he had married her. It had been a double wedding. Sally’s girl chum marrying a chap with whom the girls had both gone to school. And It had ended I in the divorce court —that other mar- . Huge. He walked irito the hall ns the doc- ; tor came downstairs. “Anything serious?” His concern I was real, at least. “Nothing worse than one of these spring colds that everybody seems to be taking a turn at. I'll leave a prescription that ought to get her out of bed in a couple of days.” The doctor’s cheerfulness, perhaps, was the reason for Jim’s haste to get upstairs. He took them two at a time. “I believe I feel better already,” was Sally’s greeting as he pushed open her door. "Huh! Doctor said you weren't sick at all.” Sally’s husband stood eyeing her scornfully now. “Such a fuss you made over nothing—getting uie all worked up over your sly insinuations about dying, and all those things! Had to take it out telling me what a hard time you’ve had of It with me. Anyone might think I was really the meanest —” "Hurry, If you're going to get that prescription filled tonight.” Sally yawned and turned her pillow to find a cool spot. “It’s after 10 now—” Jim shrugged himself into a coat and rubbed his hat witli his sleeve. "You might bring me a little Ice cream. The doctor said I could eat ■ it—” I “Bring you nothing!" Jim growled. “You'll be costing me enough with druggist charges and doctor* bills.” But he took the stairs very softly, and Sally did not catch even an echo of the closing door as he went Into the street. In 15 minutes he was back, the much-wanted Ice cream in a paper box, and Sally’s favorite magazine, flanked by a basket of selected fruit, was under his arm. “Thought you’d be too lazy to even try to get up tomorrow," he grunted, “so, to keep you from setting me crazy I got you something to read. And, just so you won't have me run ning my legs off waiting on you I called Josie on the'drug store phone —she's sending her girl over tomorrow to get something done in this house.” “Fine!” Sally sat up In bed and pecked dalntly at the ice. “Your .sister is a real comfort—thinks of everything, doesn’t she? You are. too!” as an afterthought. Jim paused, hung up his coat, then, standing at the foot of the bed, he scowled down at Sally’s smiling sac “Taffy! Well, it won't get you anything!” Then, when she had finished the cream, he patted the pillows and straightened the bed-clothes, tucking them In around her neck. “Think I’m doing all this because I like to make a nurse-maid of rayself?” he wheezed. “WeH, somebody has to look out for you, and It gets wished onto me."
