All Druggists II m Em HlH EBlt El El niti 4 ' i Suspension Bridge Corner THEY SERVE THE NATION WHO BUY LIBERTY BONDS The goverment of the United States has two methods of raising money. One is by taxation. The other is by the sale of bonds, which is a method of borrowing money. The government bond is the printed promise of the government to pay back the borrowed sum of money at a certain time, and to pay interest on it at regular intervals until it is repaid. The government borrows money in this way only after it has been given the right to do so by act of congress approved by the president, and the terms of the loan are set out in the act. Back of the promise of the govern ment stands the honor of the govern ment and all its taxing resources. Really the whole wealth of the nation stands behind this solemn promise of the government to pay. This makes a United States gov ernment bond the safest investment in the world. If the bond of the Unit ed States government is not safe, no property in the United States is safe. If the United States cannot pay its bonds, it is hardly probable that it will be able to protect the citizens in their other rights. The Liberty Loan bonds of 1917 are especially attractive investments. Not only have they this absolute safe ty characteristic of all United States bonds but they are tax free not only from all existing taxes but from any war tax that may subsequently be lev ied. No state, city, nor country may tax them. The inheritance tax of the United States and of some states may affect them, or rather, affect their transfer after death of the owner by will or by inheritance. Another advantage these Liberty Loan bonds possess is that if the gov ernment issues bonds later on during this war at a higher rate of interest the holders of Liberty Loan bonds will be allowed to exchange at par their bonds for bonds bearing the higher rate of interest. The bonds are to be sold at par; that is, dollar for dollar, no premium and no discount. They are to be sold by the Treasurer of the United States and by all Federal Reserve banks. But all banks, national and state, post offices, and express companies have been designated as agents of the gov ernment to receive applications for these bonds. It is almost as easy to purchase one of these bonds as it is to get a post-office money order. It is not necessary to pay cash in full for a bond. One can pay down 2 per cent of the purchase price on application that is, $1 for a $50 bond, $2 for a $100 bond, etc., 18 per cent on July 25, 1917; 20 per cent July 30, 1917; 30 per cent August 15, 1917; and the balance, 30 per cent, August 30, 1917.
