Filler Ad Text Promotes Illicit Health Claims
Fragmentary OCR advertisement touts skincare cures and guaranteed medicines. It mentions smoothing cheeks and thinning limbs with questionable ingredients and dubious guarantees, reflecting era marketing prose and likely unsafe health claims.
War stores to be sold off by year end
The War Department announced that the first stock of military supplies built up during the war and post war period will be disposed of by year end. About 260 million dollars remains to be sold or allocated to private gift, with auctions and sales drawing down the remnant. The Treasury notes steady inflows as sales proceed, and the government expects little more than a four percent recovery on the remaining stock. The army will keep reserve supplies to cover the initial phase of any future conflict.
