Convert these into War Savings Stamps. Then watch your money grow. THE FOOD PACKAGE HABIT. At the grocery store you can find a certain cereal that recently sold for six cents a pound when taken from a bar rel. But probably you bought the same article in a small pasteboard box, for nine cents for the pound package. A stylish corton in colors, even if selling for a higher price, will sell itself to many people, particularly if adorned by a prettv girl picture. But as you soon dump your charm ing maiden in the rubbish, her futile smile costs high. Also you consume perfectly good paper stock, and help a bit to increase the price of everything made from paper pulp. So far two reasons, some home economics author ities tell us to buy more of our foods in bulk form. Some food manufactures can show that by machinery they fill their small packages without greater expense than is involved by the other system. Still the actual compari son of prices at the stores show that many foods sold in bulk or from barrels are less expensive. The distributor of bulk products would have to demon strate to the public through some form of publicity that his receptacles are just as sanitary as any paper box could be. And this method calls on the grocer for a higher standard of cleanliness. The sale of foods in small packages has been greatly promoted by the feeling that they are cleaner. The gro cer who used to keep salt fish and nails in the same barrel is either dead pr bankrupt. But some towns still have those who keep the corn meal barrel exposed to all the dust of the street exposed to all the dust of the street.The grocer is a busy and hurried man. If he fussed too much with his barrels and his hands, the customers waiting for him to deliver a yeast cake would probably kick, So he may favor the food package plan of distribution, as as suring cleanliness and simplifying his work.

Recently Dr. Dunsmore tendered his resignation as pastor of the Pres byterian church, but the congrega tion felt inclined to ask that he recon sider the matter, and if possible, re main as their pastor.

Cooper, the first president to pre side when the club was organized, gave a detailed report of what the club had accomplished since its or ganization, showing conclusively that the club was not entirely a social af-f fair, but its object was along the line ekly Health Talks vi 6 A WORD ABOUT THE KIDNEYS BY DOCTOR WATSON. People are easily frightened when they think something ia the matter with their lungs or heart, and well they may be; but few people understand the dangers of diseased kidneys. These organs have a duty of vital importance to perform, and if they are diseased, there is no telling how or where the symptoms may appear. ( The kidneys are filters, and when they are healthy they remove the poisons from the blood and purify it. When the kidneys are diseased, the poisons are spread every where, and one of these poisons ia uric acid. The uric acid is carried all through the system and deposited in various places, in the form of urate salts in the feet, ankles, wrists and back often forming bags under the 3yes. Sometimes the resulting trouble s called rheumatism, lumbago, Sciatica ind backache. . Finally, come stone n the bladder, diabetes and Bright'a iisease. Dr. Pierce, of TJuffalo, N. Y., in recent pears, discovered that a certain com bination of remedies would dissolve uric acid (urate salts) in the system. He found this combination to be harmless, so that he made it up in tablets, of double strength, and called them Anurio Tablets. They dissolve uric acid in the human system as hot coffee dissolves sugar. If you have nric acid troubles, don't delay in taking Anuric Tablets, which can be secured in the drug stores. You can write Dr. Pierce, too, and he will tell you what to eat and how to live bo that more nric acid will not form in your system. Dr. Pierce will not charge for thia adrice. of civic and other purpoaes for which i .i , r,..i.rlimllv founded, An tne cum - i enjoyable programme wn. given in cluding a solo l.y mrs. .
