' WHAT REAL THRIFT I WILL ACCOMPLISH II Buooeeeful Men Began By 8avlng Their Money At a Matter of Fixed Habit I Abraham Lincoln wu a notable exemplar of the value of thrift of time. We can picture him trudging forty J miles to borrow a grammar. We can j see him prone before the pine Are at | I night after a hard day's work log- < ' cutting, reading and re-reading the , statutes of Indiana, the only book he ] owned, or learning to write and figure , 5 with a piece of charcoal on the back of . i a wooden shovel, as he had no paper 1 or Ink. | Another example of what a boy eaa j do who does not waste time is that of \ j a Milwaukee man, Nels Anton Chris- i j teneen, recently appointed by the \ r United States government through < Secretary of the Navy Daniels, on the ! f inventors' staff of the new United i _ States Naval Board, which includes i the greatest inventive minds in the < nation. i r Born in Denmark, Nels Chrhrten- 1 " sen's school days ended at 14 years. 1 1 After that he worked in a machine ' shop days and attended a technical i ' school in tke evenings. < From his savings he defrayed the expense of a . course at the Copenhagen Technique Institute, from which be was graduat- ] - ed at 21. Previous to that be attain 1 national prominence as an engineer, having designed, when 19 years old, the Danish lighthouse at Hanstholme, one of the largest in the world. i During the three years he spent on an English steamer engaged in Mediterranean trade he learned enough English to secure a position with an English manufacturing concern. Since coming to the United States he has invented many compressed airbrake starters for railroads, aeroplanes and Are engines that have brought him < world-wide fame. Thomas Edison began to save before he began to Invent. The successful magajine editcr, Edward Bok, started saving on a salary of 60 cents a week. Orover Cleveland's wages for his first year of work totaled $50. Garfield could not have became president had he not saved early in life. Horace Greeley and Cooper founded their oareers pn saving. Ex-Governor Ferris of Michigan, ' | now a college president, a life-long ad vocate of thrift, tells of his own thrif,J ty training: "In my youth if I had a toy, I made it, and ma<ie it not to auit myself alone but it had to auit my father as well. His examination of my work and his insistence that I should put the bert there was in me even into ray toys put into my back a spine and sufficient lime to last a lifetime." Thrift was the keynote of success in the life of the late James J. Hill. He was one of the country's most consistent exponents of thrift, one of the greatest exampls.rs of what this vir j tus combined with energy and high purpose, can do. He preached always that the man who eannot 9ave money will be a failure; that though he may have education, talent and r.blllty, without thrifty habits he cannot euc | twu. The hen that lays an egg a day Is ( a gold mine for her owner. Take a lesson from the hen! Lay up for 1 ! your future by Investing regularly In War Savings Stamps.

Richmond, Va.?The War Loan Organization of the Fifth Federal Reserve District has been advised that thereafter War Savings Stamps may t>e converted into Treasury Savings Certificates of $100 and $1,000 denominations according to a new plan of the United 8tatss Treasury Department to afford greater convenience to holders and purchasers of War Savings wd Thrift Stamps. The development of the savings idea Is one that has been urged for some time in order to attract larger investments. The holder of a sufficient aumber of Thrift Stamps may now exchange them for a $5 War Saving* Stamp and In turn the holder of twenty of the $6 War Savings Stamps may convert them into a $100 Savings Certificate, or the holder of two hundred of the $6 8Lamps may in turn turn them in for a $1,000 Saving Certificate. Conversion may be made at all flrat and'second class postoffices and at all Incorporated banks and trust companies that have qualified as agents of the second class. The Treasury Savings Certificate will be Issued in registered form and will bear the name of the owners. They will yield four per oeat compounded quarterly as do the War Savings Stamps. The limit of tbe Individual investment for the 1919 series of stamps still remains at *1.000. The new Treasury Savings Certificates should prove particularly attractive for the investment of the funds of fraternal societies, labor unions and other civic, social and religious organisations because the interest is added to the principal automatically each quarter, the entire amount being payable at maturity. HOW FAMILY INCOME MAY BE DISTRIBUTED Every Home 8hould Have Own Perv tonal Household Budget If It It to be Successful. Every household Is a corporation with certain definite obligations and a more or less certain Income, and it should, therefore, have a definite budget. No general budget can be so framed as to fit the needs of every family. Families differ, even when identical in eixe, number, sex and general situ* tion, but no family can thrive and pro greas without sound and sane finano ing; without arrangement of a reasonable financial margin; without reg> ular saving and investments, such as are offered bjr Thrift and War Savings Stamps; and only Intelligent adherence to an intelligent budget can b? trusted, under ordinary circumstances, to bring about the desired result*. Methods of appropriation, however, differ; a method which proves feasible in a given family would be worse than useless In another; but certain cardinal principles may be safely laid down. The amount of possible savings should be set apart definitely, and i gidly adhered to. Other allowances may be variable or they may be held within hard and fiJt limits. One plan arier another may ne men, 11 nsea, until the heat one suited is found. All things considered, the most easily efficient budget usually is that which allows a certain share of the Income for each budget head Itsted. holds rigidly within the Items of appropriation, and wisely applies any balance or surpluB to the sartngs of recreatlou account. tfe *aV trou^'e breakfast on V; ?^ a ma*cb J*ou bave instant f J broiling, simmering and toastinj f %i The New Perfection gives all the co A I A fYTfcVk] It means a saving of time? no waiti a with wood or ashes; a saving of mor Hfuel; a saving of energy?no overhe Buy an economical New Perfectio 3,000,000 homes its comfort and cor v|| Aladdin Security Oil is the best kcr STANDARD STANDAE CTLCOttft?NY f i in \ Washington, D.
