Speaking before thousands of people in six cities of the Southeast, the Sec retary was cheered to the echo by his immense audiences, as he told of the needs of the government, the character of the bonds, and made a stirring plea for every man, woman and child in the district to get into this war which is now being waged for their liberties, If only by the purchase of the smallest bond. Mr. McAdoo made it plain that with out the aid of the farmers of the South, of the merchants and profes fdonal men and all the laboring classes the third loan would be a failure, which would be worse than a German defeat. “The banks must perform their nec essary functions and keep their funds in liquid form to supply credits to the industries engaged in the manufacture of munitions of war and in carrying on the general business of the country and we must not take all the funds ou of these banks,” he continued. Want Twenty Million Buyers ‘‘Do you know, it would be a most Impressive thing if we could say tc the Kaiser that not 9,600,000 Arneri can citizens, as in the last loan, ha* subscribed, but that this issue wa: taken by fif 'u n or twenty million of American citizens!" In his speech, which rang from one end of the d! rid to the other, the head of the treasury traced the par which America has played in her on year of war; how she was forced intr the struggle against her wish, arc only took up arms after all her sacre 1 rights had been contravened by th< unprincipled Hun. He told how t.h< American flag was ordered off the higt Keas by Berlin, and how the only Amer Iran ships that were allowed to sa would have had to be painted like r barber pole in order to escape the tor pedoes of the submarines. In defense of freedom and th< world’s liberty, America has in on< short year marshalled her resources t a. wonderful extent, and now at thi: great crisis, when the supreme strug gles are being waged in Picardy and our allies are crying for more mer and supplies, it is our problem to mobilize America’s might for the bat th field as quickly ahd effectively a; T r ssible. T only way this can b< clone ! s through the Liberty Loan throUf h ihe subscriptions which mu come from th< rank and file of th I c ople of America. Appealed to Women. Mr. Me/ ou hpoke ot the tine work that is being done by the women ot the nation, and urged them on to greater efforts. He stressed the abac iu e necess.ty for saving, both fooa and materials of clothing, that our armies may be fed and our allies sup plied. He insisted that the people of this country must learn to sacrifice in order that the war may be won. “We must realize that we are really in this war, and that war does mean sacrifice, ’’ the secretary emphasized. “We must learn in the second yeai of the war that we must not indulge ourselves to the extent that we have iu the past. We must purify our souls and fortify our souls for this great and mighty contest which is now pro ceeding upon the battlefields of Pi cardy. And the extent to which we do that is the extent to which we are go ing to help ourselves. “I have been told by some people that the rate of interest on Liberty Ponds is too low, and, therefore, we could not rely upon the patriotism of the American people to buy these bonds. 1 have been urged to make the rate of interest higher than it is today, in order .that the bonds might sell more readily. I do not believe, iny friends, that it is necessary to raise the rate of interest on the bonds in order to sell them. Ido not believe that the patriotism of America is ex pressed in the rate of interest on a Government Bond. I do not believe that the American dollar is a fugitive and must be chased by high rates of interest when the government’s credit is back of them. “I want to tell you, fellow-citizens, because this is your problem, as well as mine, that if we do not all take an intelligent stand now in favor of keeping the rate of interest on gov ernment bonds stabilized at 4*4 per annum, unless we are willing to make a fight to preserve the Government’s credit upon that basis, then it is go ing to be the most unfortunate thing that can possibly happen to the Amer ican people. We have got to make it clear to every ma . to every woman, and to every child w ho buys a govern ment bond, that while it may be true that they could invest their money in something else that would pay a larger return, they can invest their money in nothing else that is so full of blood and necessity as a United States Gov ernment Bond. If we do the wrong thing at this time, it comes back to you.” WHITE PLAGUE KILLS MORE MER THAN BULLETS It seems longer, but It was less than four years ago that the nations had not yet started In to wipe each othei off the map and that the only times when one heard of the Red Cross were times of flood or disaster aud at Christmas time, when the peaceful lit tle Red Cross tuben-ulosls seals made their annual appears nee.

CASTOR IA For Infants and Children In Use For Over 30 Years Always bears Signature of A FAMILY MEDICINE In Her Mothers Home, Says Ttiia Georgia Lady, Regarding Black- Draught. Relief From Head ache, Malaria, Chills, Etc. Ringgold, Ga.— Mrs. Chas. Gaston, of this place, writes: “I am a user of Thedford's Black-Draught; in fact, it was one of our family medicines. Aiso in my mother’s home, when I was a child. When any of us child ren complained of headache, usually caused by constipation, she gave us a dose of Black-Draught, which would rectify the trouble. Often in the Soring, we would have malaria and chills, or troubles of this kind, we would take Black-Draught pretty reg ular until the liver acted well, and we would soon be up and around again. We would not be without it, for it certainly has saved us lots of doctor bills. Just a dose of Black- Draught w’hen not 60 well saves a lot of days iu bed.” Thedford’s Black-Draught has been in use for many years in the treat ment of stomach, liver and bowel troubles, and the popularity which it now’ enjoys is proof of its merit. If your liver is not doing its duty, you will suffer from such disagree able symptoms as headache, bilious ness, constipation, indigestion, etc., and unless something is done, serious trouble may result. Thedford's Black-Draught has been found a valuable remedy for these troubles. It is purely vegetable, and acts in a prompt and natural way, regulating the liver to its proper fe v Hons and cleansing the bowels of impurities. Try it. insist on Thed ford's, the original and genuine. E 79 EVERYONE MUST HELP. Wars cannot be fought without money, and upon the Treasury centers every financial demand upon the Nation. The rich of this country cannot alone meet the needs of the Nation; the men of the country cannot do it alone; the women of the country cannot do It alone; but all of us, the people of the United States, disre garding partizanship, forgetting selfish Interests, thinking only of the supremacy of right and determining to vindicate the majesty of American ideals and secure the safety of America and civilization, can do the great and splendid work which God has called upon us to do.

FOODS TASTE BETTER COOKED —TOBACCO TASTES BETTER TOASTED Since the day of the caveman, who liked his meat raw, civilization has learned a lot about the cdentitic treat ment of the things we eat. Naturally none of us would now prefer to have our meat raw, our po tatoes as they come from the ground, our coffee unroasted. And naturally foows the great dis covery recently made by The Ameri can Tobacco Co.— that tobacco tasus better TOASTED!
