Heavy- eating without talcing out
door exercise, such as, walking, not
riding, is likely to lead to aay form of
illness from headache and dyspepsia
to nightmare and pneumonia. Heavy
drinking and smoking decrease one's
resistance and when coupled with over
enting, create a condition favorable
to colds, grippe, and paticularly to
pneumonia. Overheating should es
pecially bs guarded against. One
should avoid getting chilled In going
from an overheated. unvontilul.il

TWO REASONS.

First Rsmm
"Ths by-product* of this War nrr
already numerous and . important
Among them three a>v especially
worthy of consideration in this con
nee lion.
“First, the immediate effect of the
War has been to reveal more clcnr'"
than before the evil of alcoholic 1
quor*. In such a crisis nr that
through which we are psa.-ing thr N
lion needs 100 per cent mr-n ond in
toxicating liquor impairs tho •
r.omte value of the cil.rcn a:< a pro
docer, and the military vnlu- of tho
•oldier at the battle front. The les
son* leaned from the Wnr arc in
creasing the Prohibition sentiment

‘■sted, the syrapalhioa arc expand'd
and altruiem makes hrsdway agamat
selfishness. All religious.and ethical
movements arc likely to be stimulat
ed because tho giving impetus!]**
been aroused.
“Third, our people have never used
tfea Government Bond as a Savings
Bank to the extent that pcanplv in
other countries heve. The Liberty
L«an has led milliona to Invest in Go.,
eminent Bond* as a matter of patti
otixm and the investment will eon
tusae aa a matter of bid r evs The
Government Bond is the best security
in the world and the safest Savings
Bank. There is, therefore, a real
si—swat value m ih»-farm.xmi jr-t* ■ ■
the habit of ontrua’.lng the Govern
ment with surplus money. It is e
good way to provide with certainty
against thte uncertainties of life and
to make sure proviaion for old age.
Ss*«ed Reason.
'Thfl Thrift and War-Savin*;-:
Stamps are the moat profil.hl.- iorm
or patriotism that the cililcn will have
a chance to maniieet It !* the duty
of the citixen to support the Govern
■ont along every line and in every
possiblo way. It in hi* duty lo sup
port the Government by word and by
deed in whatever it may see fit to un
dertake, because ours ia a people’s
government, and it spea'se for th-> eiti
xcn.
"There ore several way* in which
he eitlnen may nerve thj Government
principal among which are throogh
military service, thrki h taxation,
and through loans mad to the Gov
ernment-three kind* f burdens
whleh the citixen may b ealled upon
to bear in time of war,
"Of these three, military service
is the heavirrt because it inny involvo
the sacrifice of life. No pecuniary
burden can, therefore, equal the bur
den borne by the soldier.
"Next In weight Is taxation. It is
lighter than military eervico, hecau*e
it Is paid out of the income or, at
most, oat of the property while mili
tary service may demand life, which
la more than income or property.
"Loans made to the Government
»ra easier than taxation. When the
Jovernment take* money throierh tsx
itlon, it doo* not promise t0 return it.
Cut when It borrows money, it pays
t back with interest, and interest it
I per cent. Is, I think, more than the
iverege rale paid by the Saving*
Lle.nka of the Country.
