When capital was required, it was
created, not by saving more of it. The
individual who aspired to better living
did not economize, but wortted harder.
The miser had become but fiction.

fight on stored capital. Why save a
[ few hundred millions to pay for a war
j that cost billions? It would be a brief
j struggle at nest. Why not pay for it
lon borrowed money? Only recently
i has it dawned on the people of Eu
rope that they have stopped creating
| new capital, been destroying the old
iin suicidal amounts and only close
j economy and thrifty living on the part
of all can save the world from bank
ruptcy.
The governments first borrowed all
they could; but realizing that they
would soon exhaust their borrowing
powers turned their attention to taxa
tion and to thrift. This process has
been sobering and heroic, and meas
ures are now being taken everywhere
in Europe to meet the rising cost of
war by thrift plans. These methods in
volve sacrifice, huge taxes, and a will
ingness to do without, and involve far
reaching economic changes.
Having adjusted itself to thriftless
conditions, the world cannot suddenly
depart on anew thrift idea without
doing considerable damage. For in
stance, if everybody should stop going
I had gotten so weak 1 could not stand,
and I gave up in despair.
At last, my husband got me a bottle of
Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and I com
menced taking it. From the very first
dose, ! could tell it was helping me. I
can now walk two miles without its
tiring me, and am doing all my work.”
If you are all run down from womanly
troubles, don’t give up in despair. Try
Cardui, the woman’s tonic. It has helped
more than a million women, in its 50
years of continuous success, and should
surely help you, too. Your druggist has
sold Cardui for years. He knows what
it will do. Ask him. He will recom
mend it. Begin taking Cardui today.

to the movies it would save a lot of
money, but disrupt and bankrupt
thousands of firms and cut down the
income of other thousands relying on
this industry. We could do without
many things, but the sacrifice would
be costly to someone. With no surplus
income, as a people, the millions of
Europe cannot begin to save without
destroying more than they save. They
cannot, strictly speaking, save at all.
They can only stop spending except
for necessities and spend for war; but
that is merely a conversion of wealth.
Germany has been adopting extreme
measures, and has been limiting the
consumption of luxuries. Great Britain
has a thrift campaign on, and all un
necessary imports will be curtailed.
But habits are not changed in a day
and the efforts of spendthrifty nations
to be thrifty are pathetic.
In contrast with the plight of Eu
rope, the United States is the only
lending nation on earth, now having
surplus capital. It is the only country
that can really save —whose thrift is
not forced. Not only because of our
unique position, but because if culti
vated now, thrift will make us the big
gest moneyed factor in the world.
Thrift was never fashionable, but
ought to be always. Europe’s loss must
be our gain, and our gain will be last
ing only as we make the habit lasting.
Europe must learn how to be rich. But
we cannot afford to be too rich, losing
our heads for riches while Europe’s
poverty pays the bill. Every dollar you
save now helps along in the good work.
America’s star of thrift is nearing its
zenith. —American Bankers Associa

THE BARTOW TRIBUNE, JUNE 1, 1916.
In Memory of Mrs. J. W. Williams.
Leaves have their time to fall, and
flowers to wither at the north wind’s
breath, and stars to set, but thou hast
seasons of thou own, oh, death.
The angel of death is no respector
of person, but with silent tread comes
into each and every home at some
time to take away the tiny flowers as
well as the full bloom rose; but how
ever silent he may tread, he always
.(rings a shock and grief to the home
he invades, and especially was this
true when on Saturday. April 23, the
sad news passed from home to home,
‘‘Mrs Billy Williams is dead.” How
could this be true when she had so
recently been in and out among us in
her usual health, cheerful and bright
as was her usual manner? But her
life work was finished and her Saviour
called her home to rest from her la
bors. She was a faithful, loving wife,
a devoted mother, a generous, unsel
fish friend whom to know was to love.
Her’s was a quiet, unassuming na
ture, more felt than heard, but her
deeds of love and kindness among her
friends and neighbors will never cease
to live in the hearts of those who
knew her best. Her highest joy was to
make others happy; the influence of
such a beautiful life can never die.
The community in which she lived so
long will be the richer for the earnest,
consecrated life she lived among them
in her meek, gentle, sweet-spirited
manner. She quitely looked after her
home, anticipating the wants of her
husband and children, choosing rather
to serve than to be served, and while
it is inexpressibly sad that this home
circle is thus to be broken, yet God in
His infinite mercy and goodness is too
wise to err.
Then, dear loved ones, ilet us not
mourn at His ruling but say, “Thy
will be done,” for we know that He
doeth all tilings well. To each loved
one we extend tender sympathy in
their dark houis, but look up through
your tears and see Jesus as He says,
“i go to prepare a place for you that
where I am ye may be also.”
Think you she is in this beautiful
home prepared by the Saviour for His
redeemed ?
Then wish her not back in this
i world where there is so much sin and
j sorrow, but prepare to meet her pilot
j when you too shall have crossed the
i bar.

TRIBUTE OF RESPECT
On May 19, 1916, the death angel
came to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jim
| Linn, and took from them their prec
ious little darling Hellen. She was too
sweet to stay on earth. God must have
wanted her in His vineyard. What a
comfort to her loved ones to know she
has gone to rest. She was very low
from the first, until God came to re
lieve her of her suffering. Just five
years old, too young to die, her little
body, in the dark grave, must lie, but
yet we know with our minds her soul
ir resting with God on high. Cheer up
dear father and mother, do not weep,
little Hellen is only asleep, asleep in
Jesus, blessed sleep, from which no
one wakes to weep; cheer up dear
brothers and sister, do not weep, your
little sister is only asleep, prepare to
meet her above. It is so hard to give
up the sweet, little darling, we love
so well. Her playthings are lying
around. But yea we know through the
Saviour’s grace, we hope to meet Hel
len face to face. How shocking, how
sad, how lonely, without the little
footsteps; but how sweet it is with
God to have the little angel with Him.
There is no more pain, nor death there
and how sweet it is to the father and
mother to know their little one is an
angel and God could not spare her
any longer. May God bless them In
their sad home.

HARDAWAY is putting one over on most
of them now in Cartersville by giving all
his customers as much for 75c as most of the
others are giving for SLOO, but the others
give with each of those dollars they get
for the goods that cost 75c at Hardaway’s,
acoupon that may get you one cent’s
worth of goods some of these days, or
give a ticket with a number on it and one
of these tickets out of about every 500
may get you a set of dishes worth a dollar
or two, or some other household article like
silverware, or something else, maybe. That
25c difference in each dollar’s worth of goods
goes to pay for the premiums and bookkeepers
and losses on bad accounts, none of which
Hardaway ever pays for.

One Dollar per week will put this range in your !
