LIFE FOR MEN'S CLOTHES X "XTEGLECT, more often than wear, .shortens the life of clothes . . . Treat a J good suit 'considerately ; and see how it repays . you in longer service .... But first be sure your care is, not wasted . upon poor garments, for sponging and pressing can never supply the lack of all-wool, fabrics and' honest workman 'ship qualities ... which the Kirschbaum label absolutely guarantees - $20, $25, $30, $35,' $40 Hills Department Store There is no greater heroism than the heroism of mercy. There is no truer bravery than the bravery of tenderness. Out of the crash of nation against nation arises a Christ-like sympathy, and the insignia ,pf its tenderness is the cross of red. It is the only remaining glow of a Christian hope. It is religion under shell fire. : It is a sigh set to the music of sympathetic action. If a man who speaks truth should say to you, " With ' tlie use of five dollars you can save a useful life, alleviate ahundred nights of pain," you would grant him the hioney. You would not feel that you had lost, but gained. ' :; .', -. .' ,.' .' r i- This is whnt the Red Cross says to you: " Give of your s:ife and secure substance and I will sooth pain." I will gather up men, heroes, who have been shot to the earth, and housing them I will nurse them back td life.. For myself I ask no recompense. -My reward, is, my conscience. , My applause is restoring man to his family." ., Hearing these words and feeling that';, they are true,, would you hesitate to open your purse, whose contents were gathered in times of peace ? The Red Cross appeals to you personally. To you it opens its merciful heart and begs you for assistance. The cutting down 'of one luxury a day would mean a soothing tenderness on the red fields of France. : .1 I '11 I r dTiKI imi 4i" .Jf I X , DELICIOUS TEAS and C0FFE$ What is more inviting than a cup of 'delicious ton or rich fragrant coffee.'

D. lIARniS. Proprietor 408 KIR STREET." l'honc: led .1171. Mr. Grain Farmer: Are you prepared to handle your grain In hulk? Do not wait until Spring and Summer when you are buried with work and worried with labor shortage, but build your granerieg now. You can buy the lumber and roofing paper for a first-class 1000 bushel portable granary for $54.58 and it will last for years. Sacks for the same amount of grain will cost you $125.00 and this would he a dead loss against this year's crop. A granary of this size can be moved anywhere and can be filled directly from the thresher, doing away with high priced labor handling and sewing sacks. The boys in the trenches need the sacks for sand bags for , the protection of their very lives and perhaps your boy ia among them. Spend your money in your own valley by buying lumber manufactured at home. When you buy ancka part of the money goes to India. BUILD YOUR GRANARIES NOW Be prepared -by building them beforetbe farming season opens up. Be sure to get good lumber, well seasoned, as low grade lumber will givo you trouble in a few seasons. Don't use green lumber. ' Save money keep what you spend at home pvevent loss and damage from exposure to weather leave the sacks for our boys in the trenches; help win the war by building gianaries now. Portable granaries of this type are niiversally used in other sections. One trip, with a good team will haul the ma ter.nl for one granary.
