Our real setvice plumbing is bound to

realizes that long use develops no defects,
no poor arrangement of fixtures, no details

Our plumbing is not cheap. It is the

Asks Heavy Damages.
Heirs of the late Peter
Knepp, of Meyersdale, who
was fatally injured on a cross-.
ing of the Baltimore & Ohio,
have brought suits t recover a
total sum of $30,000. The
heirs ask $10,000 and Miss
Cora Knepp, a daughter of the
victim, who was injured in the
accident, asks $20,000 dam-
ages. The accident occurred
on June 14th, 1916.
The Terms of the Liberty Loan
The act authorizing the Lib-
erty’ Loan Bonds of 1917 was
passed April 24, 1917. It pro-
vides for the issuance of five
billion of 3 and one-half per
cent bonds, the interest pay-
able semiannually on Decem-
ber 15 and June 15 of each
year. The principal is repay-
able on or after the 15th day of
June, 1932, at the option of the
Government, and if this option
is not exercised the bonds will
run full 30 years and become
due June 15, 1947.
The bonds are exempt as to
principal and interest from all
taxation, national, State, coun-
ty, or municipal, except the in-
heritance tax, which is really
not a tax on the property, but
on the transfer of property by
will or inheritance.
The bonds are to be sold at
par; that is, dollar for dollar,
\ 10 premium and no discount.
| They are to be sold by the
i Treasurer of the United States
tand by all Federal Resrve
banks. But all banks, Nation-
al and State, post offices, and
eéxpress companies have been
designated as agents of the
Government to receive appli-
cations for these bonds. It is
almost as easy to purchase one
of these bonds as it is to get a
post-office money order.

can pay down 2 per cent of the

for a $100 bond, etc.—18 per
