to Health Resort
People used to travel to a pcpulat^f
health resort when they were nervoue,
thin, weak, run-down and felt tired all
the time. There they found a phy-
sician whose fame had spread far and
wide for the remarkable success that
he had in treating just that kind of
people.
And the secret of his success was a
tonic that he prepared for his patients
according to his own formula, which
taken according to his directions
gained for him his popularity.
This same tonic is now obtainable
by the public generally under the
-TONE, with full di-

for a thorough organization of all th-
public schools of the State into Sav- j
ing* Societies, Mr. Smith believes the
use of the orations and poems will do |
a g,eat deal to increase interst in the 1
Savings Campaign.
While there are already War Sav-
ings Societies in most of the schools
of Texas, District Headquarters is not
yet satisfied, as several States al-
ready have a Savings Society in every
room of every public school. One of
these is Montana, which is now lead-
ing the country in average sales per
capita. Mr. Smith is determined that
Texas shall be so thoroughly organ-
ized that this State is second to none
in the Thrift movement.
