I OPEN AIR CAMPS Are Built With Red Cross Seal Proceeds for Benefit of Sufferers. FROM TUBERCULOSIS And Much is Given to Aid Institutions in the War Against This Disease. Many persons In Indiana afflicted with tuberculosis are benefltting now by former sales of Red Cross Christmas seals, according to James W. Lilly, treasurer of the Indiana com- | mission, which Is conducting the sale I this year. Mr. Lilly, who was treasi urer of the Indiana branch of the Red Cross which conducted the campaign ] last year, says the funds raised in former years are being used daily to fight tuberculosis in all parts of Indi- ! ana. People of the first stages of the disease, as well as those considered in- | curable, who are financially unable to ! obtain care and treatment, are being i benefitted by this money. The money has been spent to uuiiii and equip open air camps ,to pay for the treatment of cases in the Rockwood sanitarium and other institutions, to aid worthy organizations in their fight against the disease and to maintain an educational exhibit at the Indiana state fair. It is the purpose of the Indiana I branch of the Red Cross to build and equip open air “shacks" for consump- ! tive patients in cities where funds are i raised to maintain them. In South I Bend, Terre Haute, Vincennes, IndianI apolis and Evansville such places i have been constructed by the funds lof the Red Cross society. Between S6O and S7O is being spent i i weekly to treat poor patients suffer- ’ • ing with the disease. Besides these i channels of aiding in combating tu-, berculosis, seme of the money raised I by the seals sals has been paid to or-, ganizations wnich are working i against tuberculosis. Organizations i maintaining hospitals for incurables i and those employing visiting nurses have also been aided by this fund. Because of the increase in deaths from tuberculosis last year members of the Red Cross Christmas seals commission say that it will be necessary to sell 1,500,000 seals this year to make an effective fight against the | disease next year. Accordingly they j are devoting all their energies to the j campaign, inasmuch as the money I raised this year remains in the state. ' o CARD OF THANKS.

Had Laugh on the Dog. An Irishman went Into a butcher shop and bought a pound of soup meat | He then asked the butcher to write out : a recipe, explaining how to cook it, and the butcher did so. As the Irishman was leaving the butcher shop with the meat in his hand a big black dog strolled up behind him and stole it The Irishman shouted at the dog! ’’That’* the time I fooled you. Ye haven’t got the recipe to cook itl“ Portrait Ring la Novelty. , One of the novelties of the season la the portrait ring, To all appearance the circlet is an ordinary signet ring, with the head massively set. At one Bide, however, is a spring, which, when pressed, causes the top of the seal (o leap back, the signet In reality formng a miniature box. A tiny portrait on copper in colors or monochrome la then disclosed to view. First Meal of the Day. Breakfast is, before all things, a respectable meal. One cannot Imagine a man or woman who is always down punctually to breakfast being other than a highly reputable member of society. A dinner may be frivolous, a supper may be hilarious, but a breakfast Is always staid and solemn and conductive to the building up of a sound and sensible character. High Recommendations. "Why did you leave your last place?” asked Mrs. Hiram Daly of the would-be cook. “I haven't left me lasht place,” replied the applicant "I haven’t any lasht place to lave. I’ve been workin’ for meself for the past year, an’ I can recommend meself to yes very hoighly.”— Boston Transcript Couldn't Understand It. , A farmer’s wife became Insane, and to a friend who tried to console him, the farmer exclaimed: “I can’t understand what caused her to go crazy. I hope I’ll be struck dead if I ain’t telling you the truth when I tell you that she ain’t ben out of the kitchen a day in 20 years.” Do; Don’t Talk. Just do a thing and don’t talk about it. This is the great secret of success in all enterprises. Talk means discussion; discussion means irritation; irritation means opposition; and opposition means hindrance always, whether you are right or wrong.— Sarah Grand. Swallowed Her False Teeth. Through swallowing her false teeth, apparently while she was asleep, Mrs. Alice Dear, 51 years old, of Sewell road, Battersea, died. The cause of her death was discovered at a postmortem examination. —London Chronicle. i

Waste of Good Money. Some American manufacturers send catalogues In English to China, but they cannot be read and the goods advertised in them would not be bought even if they were printed in Chinese, as the Chinese do not buy that way. Good Cause for Insanity. “They really fear she will become insane. You see, she found a diary he kept before he married her.” “Oh, I see! And the awful revelations —' “ ‘Revelations?’ No. It was in cipher, and she couldn’t read a word of it.” A Concomitant. “Is a sham battle always followed by a festive celebration?” “I don’t know. Why do you ask?” “Because where there is a sham battle, there ought m the fitness of things, to be some sham pain.” A Sport for the Old. In most sports youth possesses all the advantages; experience is often a poor match for youth and agility, but the stripling has no advantage over skilful age in fishing. Industrious Jackdaws. Sixty-seven sackfuls of sticks have been discovered on top of the tower of St. Michael’s church, Exeter, England. They had been carried there by jackdaws for nest building. Powers Wasted. “As a rule, men habitually use only a email part of the powers which they actually possess, and which they might use under appropriate conditions.”— William James. _ • A Rare Combination. The capacity for getting into trouble and the ability for getting out of it are seldom combined In the same person.—Life. Preparation. Seven years of silent inquiry are needful for a man to learn the truth, but 14 in order to learn how to make it known to his fellow men. A State Secret. “I hope your husband has no so crets from you.” “Not many. How ever, he never would tell me what he paid for the engagement ring.” Short but Active Lives.

CHIROPRACTIC, the new science, is the knowledge of the cause of disease and the art of locating and removing same by hand The Spinal Column is the only place nerves pass between two movable bony surfaces, therefore a slight displacement of one or more vertebrae causes the delicate nerves to be pinched between hard substances, causing the nerve supply to be restricted, which caused 95 per cent of all suffering known to mankind. It matters not what part of the body or what organ s affected, the cause is in the Spinal Column. CHIROPRACTIC is the only science that removes the cause of disease and is done without pain, drugs, massage or knife.
