"TlH MVESI0R
When you buy one of the U. S.
Government War Savings Stamps
you make the kind of investment
capitalists are anxious to get.
There's not a doubt but that
moneyed men would scon take all
the issue of War Stamps if they
could. With the payment of the
inte-est and principal guaranteed
by the honor and resources of this
nation, and an interest rate of 4
per cent compounded four times
a year, no other investment offer
i3 quite so attractive as this.
But the government wants its
War Savings Certificates to be
owned by the millions of Amer
icans. That's why the stamps
are in small denominations.
You can buy a War Savings
Stamp in March for $4.14, in
April for $4.15. and so on until
December of this year, when the
price will be $4.23. You can buy
government Thrift Stamps for 25
cents each. They will help people
save many a quarter and may be
used in the purchase of the interest-bearing
War Savings Stamps.
Start today to be ail investor.
We Americans need the savings
habit. Uncle Sam is giving us
the best chance in the world to
get it. Start investing today in
W.S.S. and help win the war.
The Oregori division of Public
Information about the war asks
the people to be careful about
whom they talk (to at any time.
Germany has a lot of spie3 in
Oregon who are eagerly picking
up any sort of information.
Therefore, if you know anything
keep it to yourself or tell it di
rectly to a representative of the
government.
Now is the time to buy Squirrel
Poison at Richland Drug Store.

MEDIATION
V.Hi;
Roman Ropes, From Earlies
Time Deemed It Privilege.
First Instance Dates From 409, When
Effort Was Made to Arrange
Peace With Goth Leader.
From the earliest time of papucy,
popes, us the religious heads of the
Catholic church, have considered It
their task to Intercede as mediators
In temporal disputes, observes a his
torian. Following are a few Instances:
As early us 100, when Alarle I de
clared he would withdraw from Koine
only on condition Unit the Romans
should arrange a peace favorable to
him, S. Innocent I went with an em
bassy of Uie Homuns to Emperor Hon
crius, at Itavenna, to try, .If possible,
to makv peace with him and the Goths,
but failed In his endeavors to bring
about peace. More successful was
Gregory I, who played the same part
on the occasion of the Invnslon of Italy
by the Lombards. Owing to his friend
ship with the Lombardlan queen Theu
dullnda, he nctually mediated a favor
able peace. When northern Italy was
devastated, by Attlla tho venerable
bishop of Home, Leo I tho first of the
great popes by a personal encounter
-with the, king of the Units, prevented
him from marching upon Home. lie
wont In 452 to upper Italy, and met
Attlla at Mincio, In the vicinity of
Mantua, obtaining from him the prom
ise that he would withdraw from Italy
and negotiate peace with tho emperor.
This pope ulso succeeded In obtaining
another favor for the inhabitants of
Home. When In 455 the city was cap
tured by the Vandals under Geneserlc,
the "scourge of God," Leo's Interces
sion obtained a promise that the city
should not lie injured and the lives of
the Inhabitants should lie spared.
Another popo, llencdlct tho Twelfth,
who from 1331 to 1312 occupied Uio
holy see, wns as unsuccessful ns a
mediator as tho present supreme pon
tiff. At that time Charles IV of Franco
had died without leuving an heir, und
when his cousin, I'hlllp VI, put tho
crown on his head, Ills right to do so
was contested by. Edward III of Eng
land. Benedict iill, who wanted to
mediate, was not listened to, and there
ensued hostilities lasting, with some
interruptions, for a hundred years.
The popes mediated successfully be
twocn Christian opponents In cases
where It was impprtunt to unite tliera
in tho common cause of Christianity
against Turkey., '
Popo Gregory (1271-1270), for the
sake of a crusade against the Turks,
wbrkbfi frfdefaUgably upon a recon'
Ciliadbn of the princes in Italy and
Pnritiny, and Paul III (153-1-1540),
nearly three centuries later, tried to
prevent & war between Bpaba ood
franco. Clement uded Venice
ainilit.it the Turku uiodlutlng lliu
peace between LotiK XIV ami Spain, .
etc.

Paper Money's Nicknames.
Now that paper money is a perma
nent part of our pocket currency, wt
await the Inevitable nickname for tho
notes, which Is sure to come, says the
London Chronicle.
If we follow tho precedent set ncross
the Atlantic In 1802, when "greenbacks"
llrst mude their opppurnnee, wo might
be satisfied with "Westminster," with
referenco to the very admirable litho
graph of the palace which adorns the
reverse of the new notes. Something
better than that Is sure to come along.
In the army tho notes are known ns
"C3's," In Jocular allusion to the re
markably narrow chest which the art
ist bus given St. George, who Is In enn
lllct with a very robust dragon.
Coincidence.
Much has been said and written at
various times concerning "the long
arm of coincidence," but surely a rec
ord In this direction, relates a corre
spondent, wns established In connec
tion with an amusing little episode In
the career of tho countess of Dudley,
tho enthusiastic Hed Cross worker who
organized the llrst voluntary hospital
corps to cross tin1 Channel on the out
break of the present world war.
When, exactly ten years ago, her
ladyship presented her husbund with
twin sons, one of her llrst visits on
her recovery wns to a village church
near where she was" staying nt the
time.
The ofllclntlng clergyman wns qulto
unaware of tho presence of Lady Dud
ley among his congregation. Never
theless, by an extraordinary coin
cidence, lie chose ns his text tho words,
"Two are better thah one" greatly
to tho amusement, need It bo added,
of the countess and some friends who
were with her.

THE RED CROSS NURSES OF EUROPE
ARE GIVING TOASTED
CIGARETTES TO THE BOYS
Tn nnvone who doesn't know of the
wonderful advances that have been made
in the preparation of smoking tobaccos
in the last few years It may sound strange
to speak of toasted cigarettes.
Strictly speaking, we should say ciga
rettes made of toasted tobacco; the smok
ers of this couptiy will recognize it more
readily by its . trade, name, " LUCKY
STRIKE "the toasted cigarette.
Tho American Tobacdo Company arc
producing millions of these toasted ciga
rettes and these arc being bought iri
enormous quantities through the various
tobacco funds conducted by the news
papers of the country and forwarded
through tho Red Cross Society to the boys
in France,
This new process of treating tobaecd
not only improves the flavor of the tobacco
but it seals In this flavor and makes
the cigarettes keep better.
The Red Cross nurse is always glad td
have a cigarette for the wounded -soldier,
as, in mosfr r Instances, that is tho first
taug asked lor.
