If you reckon it up yoa will probably fiadl that at leatt five per cent, ditappeart thai "like snow wreaths in thaw." If your weekly wage is $15.00 you spend easily 75 cents of that on "mere nothings" before you know it' But suppose you said to your employer: "Each week I want you to keep 75 cents out of my pay envelope and inrest it for me in War Savings Stamps. As you buy each War Savings Stamp put it in my pay envelope, and go on doing that for a year." You will never miss that 75 cents. But at the end of the year you will have over $36.00 invested in Savings Stamps. By then they will be worth considerably more than $36.00, and by 1924 they will be worth $45.00. War Savings Stamps are guaranteed by the Dominion Government. They have the whole resources of Canada as their security, the same as Victory Loans. And they bear an unusually high rate of interest. You can cash them at any time, however, ii[ yoa need to. Make Your Saving* Serve You and Serve Your Countiy â€" Inve$l Them iif War Savings Stamps, INflNIT VARIETY. Nature's variety fi.nds in the B-H "English" line an almost equal variety of colors for every possible situation. The range of ready mixed shades is very broad. In enduring quality, in permanence of color, in covering capacity B-H "English" Paint is preeminent. The coat is tough and elastic (thus contracting and expanding v/ith the wood under extremes of heat and cold); it will not chip, crack, nor scale off. Apply it according to the directions upon the can. It lasts for years and will keep your house looking young. **. Auto Supplies Make thi.s'gfiiiige lieadqM^ tuis tot all your automobile supplies.

Lightning's Doings. Recent heavy thui:djrstormB did seri- ous damage south of here, and several fatalities occurred, according 10 the Oraugeviilo Sun. At" SVoodbridgo ouo boy was killed, another injurtd, and four men knooked unconscious when a tree under which tho ptrly hid takeu shelter durin.» the storm, was stcuok by litfhtnina. A barn lielohgia^ Ec Mr. Stoddart, near Shellurne, was struck and com-, pietoly destroyed by thj tire which followed. H K. Arthur's barn in Cale- don was also struck and a horse was killed. George Grozier of Mouj hsd a cow killed, and Wm. Rawn of Mono Mills lost !i fat steer. Tne shed of tho .Anglican church at Mono Mills was also struck and twisted from end to end. Many people in Oraugcville are be- moaning the loss of their gardens, 'which were coinplotely washed out by pe'ting rain and rushing water. Some ot those ^ who sustaiueil damage arc replanting their gardens, but others have become discouragtid and will not cry it again. A very sad tragedy occurred on the East West Luther townline, about five miles east of (irand Valley, when Mrs. .Albert Campbell was instantly killed by a bolt of lightning. Mrs. Jnnpbell and her f(;ur year old so:: were in the bed- room upstairs and she had partly dis- robes and was preparing to retire for the night. Mr. Jampbtll had gone over to a r.eighbors place to do his chores in his absence. While enged in this work the lil-hining was tlashing and thunder ruinblin«, and all at once Ihero was a terrilio crash and Mr. Campbell knew something had been sliuck. He hurried home and found that the lightning ' had struck his house. Uushin;{ upstans he was horrified to tind his wife lying dead on the Ho()r. She had evidently been standing at thn window watching for her husband's return when the bolt struak her and hurled her across tho room. The house was set un fire but It was e.\tia- guished before much damage was done.
