What Smallpox Cost Kansas City Says the Kansas City Star: "A report compiled by Dr. W. H. Coon, health director, shows it has cost the hospital and health board approximately $3,000 to care for smallpox 'patients at the General' Hospital the last three months. The cost of giving one hundred thousand vaccinations is estimated at $1,000. . Small- . pox has decreased forty-seven' cases the . last week. . There are now 182 cases in Kansas City."

The Thrift Side of It , : The sale of War-Savings Certificates and their subsidiary Thrift Stamps have two objects in f view. One is to obtain from persons with small incomes a fund of $2,000,000,000 to aid the government in its war for the protection of free institutions not only in this country but among all the peoples of the earth. The other object is to train the persons from whom the money is obtained in habits of economy and.thrift by giving them practical experience in the profit that accrnes from accumulating interest. This may be called the "Thrift Side" of the campaign now go- : ing on all over the land. . The power, of compound interest is enormous. It has been computed that if the Indians on Manhattan Island had placed the $25.00 received for it at compound interest at 6 percent, they would now, some 300 years later, be able to buy New York City at its present assessed valuation. But take a humbler illustration from an actual occurrence. In 1910 a wage earner applied for a life insurance policy of $1,000. The medical examiner found traces of anansiduous disease and so re

ported, but also recommended that a 10-year payment policy might be safely issued as; the disease, in all probability,, would .not: prove fatal within that time. The company,' however, declined the insurance and the physician thereupon advised the applicant to deposit in a savings bank the same amount-yearly that he would have to pay for the $1;000 policy. The! doctor forgot the incident but in the fall of 1917, the man recalled it, said that he followed the advice and little . by little increased thie amount of deposit, finding the larger payments easier from sheer force of habit; The result was that he had just been looking over his bank-book and found $1,400 to his credit, a sum that was increasing itself more than $50 a year. This is the Thrift side of the .War-Savings proposition. " It encourages economy to get the money, and then inspires further economy by the growth in interest. The War-Savings Certificates will in just this way grow for five years. Then some other place will be found for safe and profitable investment. Then the person, who in 1918 started his first savings by purchasing Thrift Stamps, will doubtless have also a nice little sum1 in a savings bank to add to" his investment. -Committee.

Draining the German Gstern From the Scientific American. BEFORE this war, military writers, the Germans included, told us that the proportion of the population in any country that could be made into fighting men was 10 percent. The population of Germany is 68 million. As a matter of fact the mobilization has reached nearly 15 percent, and therefore in August, 1914, the potential fighting strength of Germany was about 9 million men. This was the reservoir from which the human material would have to be fed to the fighting lines. The 9

million fighting men could never be affected by the birth

rate not unless the war should run for eighteen years. The only supply available to offset the outflow was the physically efficient young men, some 450,000 who would reach the age of 18 each year. So there it stood at the beginning of the wara cistern full to' the brim, with 9 million men and with a potential inflow of 450,000. There are two .ways in which we . may get at the losses: First, the German official statements; second, the estimates made by the allied military Intelligence departments (secret service). And we find that these arrive at the same total loss dead and hopelessly crippled of about 5 million men, or an annual net loss of killed and permanently crippled of 14 million.

"UPON WHAT MEAT DOTH THIS OUR CAESAR FEED?"

THAT PINT OF CLOTHES

The police chief of Greeley, CoL, has a man's size job ahead of him. He has Issued his imperial ukase to the effect that women of that town must wear more than a pint of clothes or keep off the street, and he will be the judge and jury on the subject. Thus speaks a gentleman and a patriot and an idealist but a dare-devil as reeckless as the movie villlan who jumps off the cliff dragging the heroine by the hair. It is all right to be earnest and sincere in maatters of reform, but why be foolhardy? It seems as though he has placed the limit rather high. In these days when a grand opera diva or a vaudeville actress can travel across the continent with her entire wardrobe, including nine complete changes of costume, in a morocco leather card case, a pint of clothes seems like a lot of clothes. Now that all the Chicago restaurants are closed at 1 o'clock, people will have to find some new way of spending their money between that hour and 6. A Detroit man has discovered a splendid substitute for gasoline, and it costs only a nickel. He goes and takes a ride on a street car. SOME COW. Henry Gaspell has bought a cow and is now supplying his neighbors with butter and fresh eggs. Item from an Ohio paper, A financial expert in Washington says: "Capital is timid these days."

umia.' A weak word. Capital is scared to death, According to our view of the thing. Any time we have looked for any of it It has hidden itself away. We have dared it to come out i JLo

open. If we ever get our hands onto anv of it We will give it something to be ' timid about. A WISE MAN. There was a man in our town, And he was wondrous wise;

He bought his wife a new silk gown In a way of a surprise. He paid Jutt nineteen ninety-eight, He told hie wife in glee. She looked at him In deep disgust, And then she said, said she: . .

"I could have bought that dress down

Why don't you read the ads, my dear,

"Oh, dear! " said the girl with the pretty foot, "my shoe lace has come untied again, and it feels loose enough to drop off."

HOT TEA BREAKS A COLD-TRY THIS

Get a small package of Hamburg Breast Tea, or as the . German folks call it, "Hamburger Brust Thee," at any pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful of the tea, put a cup of boiling water upon it, pour through a sieve and drink a teacup full at any time. It is the "most effective way to break a cold and cure grip, as it opens the pores, .relieving congestion. Also loosens the bowels, thus breaking a cold at once. It is inexpensive and entirely vegetable," therefore harmless. (Adv.)

Fight fight day in and day out to

prevent being overtaken by ills and ails. Keep wrinkles from marring the

cheek and the body from losing its youthful appearance and buoyancy. Fight when ill-health is coming with its pallor and pains, defects and declining powers. Fight to htay its course and drive it off. But fight intelligently. Don't fight without weapons that can win the day for without the intelligent use of effective weapons the pallor spreads and weakness grows and a seemingly strong man or woman oft times becomes a pray to ills after all.

Married Happiness

Ruined by Quarrels FAMILIES ARE BROKEN UP BECAUSE OF NERVES

Doctors claim a man or woman with a strong nervous system has complete control of happiness. It is only those who are played out by overwork, worry, excesses, and thoughtless dissipation that are quarrelsome and disappointed in life. Do not condemn them, their nerves are starved, they are depleted of life and energy and no thought is given to supply them with food nerve energy to make them calm, strong and controlable. The foolish waste of nerve force turns a cheerful happy person to the grouch that accounts for so many separations. Nature requires aid and Phosphated Iron is necessary in such conditions of nervousness, because it contains the

vital elements of iron and Phosphorous and vegetable extracts, the very "food help", the nervous system must have if we are to correct degenerate muscles, that sleeplessness and tired ail in feeling, lack of energy, ambition and cheerfulness. Pho6phated Iron gets at the root cf these troubles becauses it feeds tbi blood and nerve centers, it does this naturally and persistently, and cannot fail to strengthen your vitality, energy and renew the efficiency of body and mind. Special Notice To insure doctors and their patients getting the genuine Phospbated Iron we have put in capsules only. Do not allow dealers to give you tablets or pills.
