Every dollar you can lend to the Government gives you two
shots at the enemy.
First, you are helping to finance your country in the greatest
crisis of its history—you are helping to equip and send soldiers
Into the field against autocracy.
• Second, you are saving—you are denying yourself the unneces-
sary purchases that are taxing transportation facilities almost to
the breaking point and that are keeping service and materials en-
gaged in unnecessary purposes.
Every dollar lent shortens the war. Every dollar lent leng-
thens your savings-total.
The easiest way to help your country and yourself is to pur-
chase Thrift Stamps at a quarter apiece. For a War Savings
Stamp purchased now for $4.14, the government gives you $5.00
in 1923. It gives you 4 per cent interest, compounded quarterly.
And at any time between noow and 1923, it is worth more than
you pay—because it adds a penny to Its value every month—be-
cause It Is earning interest. Go today to a postoiffce, a bank, or
any authorized agency—purchase a Thrift Stamp for 25 cents, or
a War Savings Stamp for $4.14 and let the Kaiser feel the full
force of the double-barrel Americal dollar.
Star today—start now! Buy War Savings Stamps.

London, Ferf^tl.—(Correspondence)
—The Rev. A?S. W. Young, who has j$ig
just died at his home on the Thames,
was the last survivor of three broth-
ers who won the attention of the world
in 1866 by making the first ascent of
Mont Blanc without a guide. On their
return journey they fell 2,000 feet over
a precipice, one of them being killed
but the other two escaping practically
unhurt.
The three brothers Young, athletes
and experienced mountaineers, an-
nounced their intention of climbing
Mount Blanc at the most dangerous
season of the year.- All endeavors to
•tissuade them failed, and in view of
the great danger of the enterprise the
main streets of Chamoix were throng-
ed with spectators and telescopes
were much in demand.

Towards 11 o’clock the three broth-
ers were discerned looking like pyg-
mies far up on the loftiest terrace of
the Grand Plateau, climbing with re-
markable vigor. They disappeared in
the “Corridor" and were lost to view
for hn hour, when they reappeared
and were seen standing together on
(he extreme summit of Mount Blanc.,
They remained there for a few min-
utes and then commenced the descent.
Suddenly all three vanished and an
instant later they appeared 2,000 feet
below. One of the trio had slipped
-m the edge of a precipice, ahd the
brothers, being roped together, were
shot down an almost perpendicular
slope of ice to a point where it joined
the border of the upper glacier. Hor-

(Geo. W. Sutton of the Vigilantes.)
When anybody tells you:
That the war is practically over;
That the vast majority of American
people are not for the war heart and
soul;
That our greatest enemies are the
Japanese and we may expect hostili-
ties with them within a few months
or years;
That England is the real instigator
of the present war,
And other circular matter of simi-
lar trend, he is a pro-German spread-
ing German propaganda and should
be put down immediately in your
mind as an enemy.
Already a tremenodus number of
Americans are beginning to lose faith
and interest in our efforts, in the be-
lief that the end of the war is really
in sight. This is simply the result of
the united work of thousands of dis-
loyal boche and pro-boche people in
this country who masquerade as
friends and who are ready and anx-
ious to sacrifice the land which shel-
ters them.
We hold these things to be self-ev-
ident: -
That we are fighting the most loath-
some and contemptible foe that any-
body-—white, black or yellow—has
ever fought.
That he is not afraid of the mil-
lion and a half men we shall send
against him this year, but that he is
afraid of the addition of the five or
| more millions we are going to send
| to strengthen the forces of those who
already have the upper hand of him.
That he knows he is beaten and is
desperately trying to swindle the
world into a peace which will leave
him with some of >he things he has
stolen and without paying any of the
price he owes for the abominable,
cowardly things he has .done.
That this peace will be used to pre-
pare for another outbreak of kultur
when the world has been lullel into a
sense of security and he has com-
pleted a new alignment of nations
with which he thinks he can carry
out his unholy plans.
That he is in a fair way to accom-
plish these results unless the people
—and especially the laboring people—
of the countries allied against him
take a grip on themselves and settle
down to the long task of beating him
so that he can never again dare to
raise his hand against his betters.
All our lives we have been encour-
aged to think only as individuals.
That is one.accompaniment of democ-
racy. It is time all loyal Americans
began to pull the. same stroke, to put
over this thing which must be put
over.
Hoist the pro-boche ‘with his own
they bent over the prostrate form of
the third, who seemed inert.
Then the two, o'ne walking with
great difficulty, began the laborious
descent, leaving the lifeless body of
their brother. It was dark before
they reached the “Corridor,” and they*
did not reach a safe stopping place
until about 3 o’clock in the morning.
A rescue party from Chamonix after-
ward recovered the body of the broth-
er, whose neck had been broken by
his fall.

for Tax Col-
Mrs. T. C. Thompson
fector.
In the Herald’s announcement col-
umn today will be found the name of
Mrs. T. C. Thompson of Weatherford,
who announces for the office of tax
collector of Parker county, subject to
the action of the Democratic prima-
ries. Mrs. Thompson has for the
past four years been connected with
tl\e Citizens Mutual Life Insurance
Association, and has had practical
training along the line of work to
which she aspires, having handled
thousands of dollars of insurance mon-
ey each year. She has numerous ac-
quaintances and friends throughout
the county. She had three years-train-
ing at the Texas Female Seminary un-
der Dr. J. S. Howard’s superinten-
dency, and is well qualified along ed-
ucation lines for the work. She has
lived here for the greater part of her
life, having moved here with her fath-
er, L. D. Smart, from Marshall county,
Miss.,, when a child, and has been here
since, except for a few years spent in
Dallas after her marriage. Her hus-
band is an invalid, with no hope of
recovery,'* dependent on her for sup-
port, and the fact that she is the
bread-winner in the home, and tax-

Births in England Exceed Deaths.
Associated Press
London, March 29.—Notwithstand-
ing the war’s carnage the number of
births in 1916 exceeded by 277,303 the
numfier of deaths, according to the
registrar general’s report, just made
public. The reduction in the number
of births amounted to only 12 per
cent. There was an unprecedently
low marriage rate in 1916 as compar-
ed with an abnormally high one in
1915, the deciease being attributed to
the fact that compulsion for military
service was applied to married men
in 1916-
qualification to perform the duties of
the office with credit and profit to
herself and honor to the county, has
induced her, at the solicitation of
many friends and acquaintances, to
come before the voters of the county,
asking their consideration and sup-
port. Home and office duties will
prevent a house to house canvass, but*
she will see as many people as pos-
sible and will highly appreciate every
word spoken in her behalf. In mak-
ing her announcement Mrs. Thomp-
son sets forth the following as -her
platform:
“In electing public officials the
principle of service rendered in re-
turn for money paid, should be con-
sidered the same as in employing one
in office, school or_on farm. My plat-
form is efficient servioe rendered for
every day’s pay received. I shall,
if elected tax collector of the county,
give the work my personal attention
and be present in the office every day
possible, rendering the same faithful
service there that I have to the pat-
rons of the office where I now work.”

Chicago, March 30.—Chicago’s new
Wilson avenue water tunnel, the first
important public improvement built
by the municipality under the day
labor plan, has been completed. Wa-
ter will be turned into lhe great bore
May 1. The tunnel cost $4,550,000. It
is 12 feet in diameter and eight miles
long. The bore was constructed
through solid rock and has a capacity
of 300,000,000 gallons of water a day.
It will supply three pumping stations
in the northwest section of the city.
The land end of the tunnel is at May-
fair, where a new pumping station is
nearing completion. The bore extends
under the lake three miles and con-
nects with a large concrete intake

There is only one way to cure catarrh

Is caused by an Inflamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When This tube is inflamed,
you have a rumbling sound or imper-
fect hearing, and when it Is entirely
closed. Deafness is the result. Un-
less the inflamation can be reduced,
and tills tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever. Many cases of deafness are
caused by catarrh, which is an in-

the system.
