HOOGO B TCTS FIGHT HUGE OCTOPUS PERS Mation Has Eight Bill on Circulating— Not Hard For Each One To Get His Full Share Of Coin. ' i The total amount of money In th":! I'nited States a recent inventory showed to be $8,082,770,8 j6. tlow much of it have you to your credit? This amounts to about $80 for every huma:) : being in the United Slat»‘3. Have you your ^80? If you hjivc not, it is eas,- to get. Save it: You can get 11' times $80 if you save. But there is only one way to save it. That is, to lay down a rigid rule to : save a certain amount each week oi each month out of your pay check or , income. As you save it, invest it. looking first to the safety of the prin cipal and, secondly, to the intere.st re 1 urn. Invest It in United States Liberty Bonds or in Government Savings Se curities, such as $5 War Savings Stamps, and Treasury Savings Certif icates in denominations of ?25, $100 and |1,000. These Stamps and Certif icates pay 4 per cent interest, coi.i- pounded quarterly. They are guaran teed by the government of the United States to increase in value from month to month and are not subject to market fluctuations. You always know exactly what a W'ar Savings Stamp or a Treasury Sav ings Certificate is worth and you can always sell it back, when necessary, to the government at that guaranteed price. Remember somebody is saving the money you waste. Why not do it yourself? Y^our postmaster sells Gov ernment Savings Securities. Ask him about them.

From the time he •‘crashed’ ^ iiis way into his first bull fight b} ; c.irrying w’ater for »he horses, he was | always inviting Old Man TrouMe’s | youngest and brightest boy o it *o dc i four rounds before breakfast. Th^ j neighbors used to say: “That Hernij Cortez is a reckless young feller. Marls iny words, he’ll come to no good end.’ , But Hernie used fo get by with it. | His motto used to be: “I don’t ki\6\v ! vvaire I’m goin’ and I don’t care when i 1 g3t back.” People used to wonder ' how he did it until they discovered,! chat Cortez always had an ace in the hole. He always had something saved up and ready for use when necessity demanded. While he was snorting around- the Carribean Sea in a steel vest and a tin hat, he and his gang dropped into \'era Cruz. Cortez had heard about Montezuma and his .wonderful city up in the mountains and wanted to go. The gang refused. “I’ll show you who is boss,” said Cortez, and burned every one c£ his ships as they lay oh the beach. That left the gang no place to go but ahead which was what Cortez wanted. But he saved himself up something • or the future. Secretly he saved every bit of iron about those ships, collected every nail from the ashes, tallowed them and all the carpenter tools against rust and said to the gang “Let’s go!” When he came back to Vera Cruz, 1 he cashed in on his savings. He resur- " r acted the nails, built new ships and took the gang and the money they had captured back to Spain. The mors.! is* that it may be all right to bum your ships but save the nails. The only safe plan for any man to follow is to have a reserve fund in case of emergencies. There is only one safe and sure plan to accomplish that. It is to save a certain amount of money every pay day and invest it safely where it will be protected, where it will work for you and where you can get it when you need it. The new savings securities of the Treasury Department, tke Savings Stamps and the Savings Certiflfeates, are the safest and most available means of pilinsf up such a reserve One Reason So Many People Do Not Save Money Those with money already saved should investigate our FULLY PAID STOCK Department. Shares of $100 each, paid in, are with drawable on 30 days notice, pay 5% if j kft less than one year^ pay 6% if left a year or over—interest pay - able in cash or com pounded if desired* Such stock is tax free and thus pays better than any ordinarily obtainable invest- ment, with no care to tfie owner* IS BECAUSE IT IS SO EASY NOT TO BEGIN The'man who is looking! for excuses not to save can always find them, because there are nearly always legitimate obstacles to any worthy accomplishment* Your ability to overcome these obstacles determines your success or failure.
