NEW WAR RISK LAW IS EXPECTED TO BE POPULAR WITH MEN

The new amendment to the war risk Insurance act. which has been passed by congress and which became a law on Dec. 24, 1919, when it was signed by the President, Is expected to make that aet'much more popular with the ex-sotdior. The amendment provides for large Increases In compensation for total disability and compensation for partial liability. It provides for the payment of government life insurance in a lump sum at death and makes it possible to make government insurance policies payable to any near relative. The rate of compensation for disability has been more than doubled by the new amendment. A man, with

neither wife or child, temporarily totally disabled, received under the old act $30 a month. By the amendment

he will receive $80 a month. A tern

porarlly totally disabled man with a wife will receive $90 a month, while

-the old law gave him only $45. An increase of $5 a month is given for each

child. Under the new law there is an

allowance to a man temporarily total

ly disabled, and with no wife living, of $5 additional for each child without

limit toliumber. Distinction Is Made. Under the war risk Insurance act

the same scale applied for total and permanent disability as for temporary total disability. A distinction between

the two is made in the now law. Under the latter, the compensation monthly for total and permanent dlsrbility is $100. The new amendment also provides If a disabled person is so helpless as to be in constant need of

a nurse or attendant ,an additional al

lowance may be given at the discretion

of the director, not exceeding $20. Under the old act a man receiving $100 a month could not be given additional

allowance;

Both under the R. I. Act and the

new law, compensation for the loss of both feet or both hands or the sight of

both eyes or for becoming helpless and permanently bedridden is $100. In addition the new law provides that compensation for the loss of one foot and one hand, or one foot and the sight of one eye or one hand and the sight of one eye shall be $100. The new law provides that for double, total, permanent disability the rate of compensation shall be $200. The amendment gives the beneficiary of government life insurance policies the choice of receiving payment at death in a lump sum or In payments covering a period of 36 months or more. This clause puts the converted government insurance on he same basis of pay as private insurance and dors away with the cause of many ex-soldiers dropping their policies. Government insurance was formerly only payable in monthly installments stretched over a period of 20 years.

(A certificate, bearing the seal of the United States Bureau of Education, signed by the Commissioner of Education, will be awarded to each person who gives satisfactory evidence of having read all the books in the accompanying list. You are invited to join the great national reading circle, making your own selection from the reading courses provided).

Among the books of the world a few are so preeminent for content and style that they have been called "The Literary Bibles." These are the Iliad and the Odyssey of Horner the Divine Comedy of Dante, the greater dramas of Shakespeare, and Goethe's Faust. Each of these is the embodiment and revelation of the ideals of a race, an age, or. a civilization. They came out of the hearts smd minds of the people for whom their authors were only spokesmen. They are therefore simple, fundamental, and comprehensive. They appeal to

the hearts and grip the minds of all people everywhere, young or old, learned and unlearned, of whatever

race or creed. They are human books and take firm hold on the human life which we all live, which few understand, but which in all its phases has "interest without end." They are broad-minded books. Their authors saw life 6teadily and saw it whole. Kings and priests to God and humanity, they interpreted for man the eternal mysteries. Prophetic men, they stood on the mountain tops and caught the glow of the ever-dawning new day. Finely organized men, they felt the heart throb and pulse beat of

the human race; they understood the hopes and fears and aspirations of humanity better than most, and they have set these to the music of rythmic winged words. These books should be read by all who would know the world's literature

and life. The United States Bureau of Education has therefore chosen them for its first course in reading, and invites all young men and women to join this, its first national reading circle, the members of which will undertake to read each of these books, at least twice within the next three years from the time of Joining the circle. Certificate Will Be Given. To each person who gives satisfactory evidence of having read twice all

the books on tho list a certificate will j be awarded bearing tho seal of the j

United States Bureau of Education. All young men and womnn who want to know the best thore is in the literature of the world Jnd to gain tho Inspiration it gives are invited to join this national reading circle, and it is so hoped that many thousands will do so. Charles Alphonso Smith, professor of English in the University of Virginia; Charles Foster Smith, professor of Greek in the University of Wisconsin; Richard Burton, professor of English literature in the University of Minnesota, and William Lyon Phelps, professor of English literature in Yalo university, havo assisted the bureau

of education in directing this course of reading.

Bad for Health

Good Health for You Dr, Carter's K.&B. Tea Costs but Little and You Can Make a Whole Lot From One Package. More people are drinking Dr. Carter's K. & B. Tea than ever before, because they 'have found out that for liver, stomach and bowels and to purify the blood there is nothing surer, safer or better. The little tots just love It.

Where Most Sickness Begins and Ends BY LEE HERBERT SMITH, M. D. It can be said broadly that most human His begin in the stomach and end in the stomach. Good digestion means good health, and poor digestion means bad healtn. The minute your stomach fails to properly 'dispose of the food you eat.troubles begin to crop out in various forms. Indigestion and dyspepsia are the commonest forms, but thin, impure blood, headaches, backaches, pimples, blotches, dizziness, belching, coated tongue, weakness, poor appetite, sleeplessness, coughs, colds and bronchitis are almost as common. There is but one way to have good health, and that fs to put and keep your stomach in good order. This is easy to do if you take Dr. J'ierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It is a Wonderful tonic and blood purifier, and is so safe to take, for it is mode of roots and herbs and is without alcohol. Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., stands behind this standard medicine, and it is good to know that so distinguished a physician is proud to have his name identified with it.

Frankfort, Ind.: "About a year ago my system required a tonic and bloodpurifier , so af ter reading a little pamphlet I decided to try Dr. Pierce'sGolden Medical Discovery. This medicine v I consider to be a very efficient tonic andblood-puri-fier and am, therefore, glad to recommend it?' HENRY HTfMrTcs an w

Morrison St. ' Indianapolis, Ind. : "I am most pleased to say for Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery that I like it as a spring medicine. I was employed in a cloak house and used it for a toning up medicine.' As a general tonic I know of nothing better." MRS. G. P. BEESON, 733 Elm St.

Fine Time Now to Plan! Great Enterprises, which have to do with the art of construction, first find form in the minds of men and are then reduced to blue prints where every single detail must be proven by expert analysis to be correct," before actual operations begin. The home of one's own is to the average individual the biggest building achievement of his life and, if best results are to be attained, should have careful and considerate planning. Now is a time to plan. The long winter evenings ; a cozy fire, with the family all at hand to help with mutual loyalty and interest, all conduce to best results as such shall in the ultimate end serve to reduce expense and provide against mistakes and consequent dissatisfaction so common to the hastily conceived, and hurriedly built house. Many a man owes the home of his own to what he and wife thought at the time was "building castles in the air." They together had the courage TO PLAN. Planning begot confidence ; confidence brought enthusiasm and enthusiasm was the means of extra effort and results. The winning of a home which is your own, like the rearing of children, brings heavy sacrifices and penalties in its train, but the compensation, after the work is finished, in connection with the one achievement, as with the other is comparable to none other known.

America is even now budding into a blossom of unparalleled possibilities, ture holds no risk for industrious and seriously inclined men and women.

The fu-

Plan now at your leisure. Make sure you're right in every detail. Accurately estimate the cost. Figure out how to "meet it. Whip desire and enthusiasm into action. With the coming of spring ACT and live to remember with pleasure and PROFIT the suggestion which started you on your way to the greatest of all possessions A home of your own.
