WHAT A GIRL CAN IfO
A medal was offered by the Na
tional Society of Colonial KtugMeu
and was secured by Eugenia Dob
tag,, aged 16 yours, a Usimi 11
llo School, girl who wj-j burn In
l'lraeus, Qroeco, and camo to this
, country In 1914. ' ' .
:. "What can a girl d j' to help wm
; tho war?" This in a voiv conrjioii
. question, today. There aro many
ways in which a girl can help, but
one of the most important Is the
I-ractlcq of thrift. Not simply prp
Knding to be thrifty and economi
cal, but cultivating thrift In .ivory
way possible.
Tho first thing In which a pat.
rlotlc girl must economize is foqd.
ifr'ats, iiioiUb, Btarch and sugar, are
things without which a girl can
.live and be .healthy; but our
j burif-flghting men must havo thorn;
with our soldiers they are. neces
saries. An army' can not be ez-
rccted to fight and to, bo victorious
wbiht it lacks the propor food, and
thoy will have it If the girls do
. their part in its conservation.
: A war garden la a thing that
many girls can have. . In the
cuuutry there are many unused
tracts of land which can bo culti
vated by girls in their spare time.
A girl can change hor flowor gar
don into a war. gardan which will
be moro useful. In the city a girl
lias , not a very great opportunity
to cultivate the soil, but the ma
jority can have a window box, or
perhaps a smalt roof garden. These
' city opportunities are not very
great, but every advantage must
be taken of even tho smallest one.
. Clothing, and especially woolen
material, Is another .necessity of
llfo for tho fighters. No ' patriotic
girl will wear any unnecessary
woolen articles if she stops to think
that sho Is helping the enemy by
wearing thorn. She la helping him,
by taking it away from a soldier
who .really needs it, and if ho does
not havo it, death will soon come
to him; and even one life lost Is
helping the Germans hecauso they
will havo to fight one brave maa
lc.s.
Tho Ited Cross gives girls oppor
tunities to relievo tho suffering of
tho victims of this groat war. ,
.Work Is one of the olcmonts
which will quicken victory. A
girl, can work in her spare time to
, si'-vo man's labor, thus providing
more men for the army. Many
gins do mot cam money enough
to buy Liberty HondB, but War
Savings Stamps arc equally good
A girl can holp to defeat tho
enemy by being aa optimist. If
sho has a brother, or father, or
friend who has enlisted, sho must
not, when he is near her, talk about
sad and 4,'Ioomy subjects; or show
, si(?ns of uneasiness and sadness,
hucauso theso things 'discourage a
man. . Tho girl who does these
things Is unconsciously helping
. Germany. . Sho bucomes an enemy
of ' humanity through her posslm-
ism. Tho same results occur when
sho writes to hor onllsted friends
or reiativos, gloomy, discouraging
letters. There, in order to help
win the war, ta girl must bo, or at
least seem to be, cheerful and
happy, and impart that samo spirit
to otimjfl.
If a girl performs hor duly in
nl' these ways and fervently prays
to God to bring this groat- conflict
to an end, her prayer will bo heard
end victory will crown our brave
men who aro sacrificing everything
that they own In order to win this
gieat struggle.

ACQUIRING A
PERFECT FIGURE
Most women who have perfect
figures did not have them orig
inally. They have acquired them.
A woman gradually takes the
shape of her corset so the corset
produced by the most artistic
designer is the right one to wear
to secure a perfect figure.
JfloDiRT Corsets

are rhost symmetrically and ar

comfoHnble, stylish and grad

beautiful lines that every wo

NO . MORE CATARRH
A Guaranteed Treatment That Has
Stood Hie Test of Time.
Catarrh cures come and catarrh
cures go, but llyomei continues to
heal catarrh and abolish its disgust
ing symptoms wherever civilization
exists. "
Every year tho already enormous
sales of this really scientific treat
ment for catarrh grow greater, and
the present year should show ull re
cords broken.
If you breathe Hyonioi daily as di
rected it will end your catarrh, or it
won't cosfyou a cent.
If you have a hard rubber llyomei
inhaler somewhere around the house,
gel it out and start it at once to for
ever rid yourself of catarrh.
The La Grande Pharmacy, ,or any
other good druggist, will sell you a
bottle of Hyomci (liquid), start to
breathe it ami notice how quickly it
clears out the air passages and makes
the entire head feel fine.
Hyomci used regularly will end ca
tarrh, coughs, colds, bronchitis,, or
asthma. A complete outfit, including
u hard rubber pocket inhaler and bot
alo of Hyomci, costs but little. No
stomach dosing; just breathe it. It
kills the germs, soothes and hculs the
inflamed membrane. Adv.
