Belief Came at Last

Father Had Given Up Hope of Curing .. Son’s Cough Mr. A. F. Sherer, owner of a machine shop, Haviland, Ohio, says. “ My son had a cough for several years. We began to think his case a hopeless one: He could get no relief until he used Glando Pine. Three bottles cured him.” A neglected cough has undoubtedly caused more deaths than any other' 1 agency. A lingering cough should be promptly treated: Ifallowed to continue the tissues of the lungs will be weakened and the power to resist epidemics of cold and grip is lessened. By getting three ounces of Glando Pine you can make one pint of excellent cough syrup. Keep it on hands and use it freely. Stop that cough before it has too firm a grip upon you. Don’t be careless . and make a mistake that may cost you your life. If you can not get Glando Pine of your druggist send 50 cents to The Gland-Aid Co., Fort Wayne, Indiana, and it will be sent you.

It is easy to prepare, costs but little, and is pleasant to take. It is splendid for coughs, colds, bronchial affections, and highly recommended for croup. It will relieve the spasmodic coughing in whooping cough. Glando Pine contains the pure form of white pine to which other valuable ingredients have been added. Directions for preparing accompany each bottle.

In Illinois a number of cases have been reported throughout the state. Physicians state that the disease is improperly named, as it is a “first cousin” to infantile paralysis. It is an acute infection due to a specific virus which probably fins entrance through the nose and pharynx and has a special affinity for the nervous system. The disease is communicable. - —

UNCLE SAM: “HERE’S THE BILL! YOU MUST PAY IT THROUGH VICTORY LIBERTY BONDS.”

A Business Proposition

By WILL PAYNE.

Secretary Glass said the Victory Liberty Loan should appeal to the patriotism of the people of the United States and not be merely a business proposition. Isn’t that so? It was no business proposition that sent two million young Americans to France and made nearly two million more gve up their time for more than a year to train for going. This Victory Loan is to pay for equipping them, sending them over, keeping them there and fetching them back Will you look one of them in the face and say, “As soon as you stopped fighting and I had given you three hearty cheers you became Just n business proposition ?” But the loan Is a business proposition, too —this way: You are Uncle Sam —a hundred odd million of you. Individually. Says Uncle Sam to himself, “I owe several million dollars —owe It now on due and maturing obligations that must be met to thq last cent. My credit Is practically unlimited. I can borrow that money of the banks. They’ve got to lend It to me. That will mean a huge inflation of bank credit —bank loans all swollen up with my paper—banks consequently In a poorer condition to take care of the ordinary business *©f the country. But if I do horrow the money of the banks I’ve got to pay them back-some time. There are only two ways in which a man can finally get ont of debt. One way Is to sell some property and pay up; the other way is to earn more than he spends, saving the difference. I have no property to sell. Can’t sell the White House or the national forests. The second way Is the only way for me. “Shall I borrow the money from the banks now and thereby put off the raal settlement, or shall a hundred million individual Uncle Sams right now save out of their incomes and lend the saving to the collective Uncle Sam, thereby enabling him to pay the bills and wipe the slate, with no inflation, leaving the banks in sound condition to meet the needs of ordinary business?" That Is the question. It is your debt. You owe the money. . Finally you’ve got to pay It In some fashion. To lend In on the banks now is the most expensive way temporarily to dispose of it. To save, individually, is the best and cheapest way. Even waiving patriotism, it comes down to a business proposition. Only the savings and subscriptions of the whole public can take care of the loan without inflation.

VICTORY LOAN AN APPEAL TO OUR BUSINESS SENSE

As a Business Proposition No Man Can Afford Net to Subscribe to Full Limit es Hie Ability.

By EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS,

Author es “Tarsan of the Apee." There are an Infinite number of excetient reasons why ere should support the Victory Liberty Loan. The finest sentiments we possess must prompt us to subscribe to this lean even more freely than we did to the ethers. The government must get money or It would not ask us for It. The man who was prompted to lend in the past through fear that if he did net the Germans might get over here and make It unpleasant for him is mighty “yellow” if he will not subscribe, now that the danger Is past. Our response te previous loans indicated that we were thoroughly in accord with the principles for which we were fighting, and by our response we authorised the expenditure of the sums necessary properly to prosecute the war. These enormous expenses must continue for some time. The obligations involved must not be repudiated. They are our obligations as individuals and we mast look upon them as such. It is not only a matter mt necessity; It is a matter of personal honor for us to meet these obligations promptly and gladly* On the other hand, there is in the Victory loan an appeal to our business sense as well as to our patriotism. There Is the appeal to self-interest, for the loan la not to be without profit to us. We are given an opportunity to Invest in an absolutely safe security, and we will receive a good rate of Interest. As a business proposition no man con afford not to subscribe to the full limit of his ability.

And there is another reason why we should subscribe every cent that we caa rake and scrape together. It is this: If the government cannot raise the necessary funds by the sale of Liberty bonds, It must do it by direct taxation. 1 The government has the power to tax us to meet these obligations, and if we are taxed we not only will get no Interest but we will never get the principal back again. It seems to me that both the wisdom and necessity for fully and Immediately subscribing this Fifth Liberty Loan must be obvious to anyone whose mentality ia greeter than that of a child of ten. We are supposed to be an intelligent people, capable of governing ourselves and others. Wo pride ourselves upon our business acumen, upon our energy and upon our patriot! am. In the Victory Liberty Loan we shall have an opportunity to prove to the world that we are better than vain boasters, and that WOSre fully deserving of the estimate which we have placed npon ourselves as a people. The time is here. The opportunity la bars, lire eyes of the world are upon ns—npon yon. What the world shall think of us depends not upon the action of others but upon what you do—YOU.

— Help "finish the job.* To Bring Soldiers Back. Part of the proceeds of the Victory Liberty Loan are to be used to bring our soldiers and sailors back and restore them to the useful occupations of peace. Every true-blue 100 per cent American should have a part in this work. IPs Not Time to Quit, The Germans, not the Americans. werOjthe quitters, but onr work is not finished until we have brought the victors bomb. Let’s finish the Job by eversuboerlblng the Victory Liberty Loan as wo did all ifig predecessor*.
