PATIENTS WELL CARED FOR

LEAGUE HAS BEEN FORMED WHICH IS DOING MUCH TO STAMP OUT WHITE PLAGUE BY TREATMENT OF SUFFERERS. South Bend, Ind., Aug. 29. Pure air, wholesome food and rest these, and these only are the medicines successfully used in South Bend to cure tuberculosis. Though the Bociety organized to cope with the inroads of the disease in South Bend, the AntiTuberculosis League, has been in existence only a few weeks, it has already proved that much good can be accomplished and that South Bend stands to be one of the first cities in the State where successful organized effort against the white plague Is maintained. And, the chief feature about the plan is that in the vast majority of cases the patients are taught how to care for themselves. The object of the league is to find and keep track of all tubercular cases in South Bend where the victims are not financially able to employ the proper medical assistance. The majority of such cases have now been located. Patients Put Into Classes. The patients are being organized Into what might be called classes. Those in the first stages of the diseases and still able to be up and about meet once a week, when they are thoroughly examined and receive complete instruction as to what they must do, and also what they must not do. Instruction Is also given as to the means of prevention of Infection of those with whom they come in contact. According to Dr. C. E. Hansel, who Is Interested In the work, the patients are not merely instructed to sleep out of doors, but the league sees that they obtain all the necessary equipment to follow the directions. A nurse visits them to see that all orders are carried out. The nurse makes reports to the physicians Interested in the movement. Patients are furnished with the medical attention necessary; tents, cots, milk, eggs and other provisions. Where It is necessary that the bread winner quit work to take treatment It is planned that the family will be cared for by the organization. This feature has not been put Into effect as yet. Record Kept In Book. Patients unable to attend the classes are observed at home. Each patient is furnished with a book in which is kept a record of the case. The visiting nurse assists in this matter. The records are taken to the weekly meetings which the patients, able to do so, attend. While the society aims primarily to aid the poor, an effort is made to have them help themselves as much as possible. Where there are relatives or friends, these are often induced to give aid. If the victim belongs to a lodge or society the organization assists in defraying the expenses attached to the Individual case. The local league was conceived and, In reality, organized by Mrs. Harry D. Johnson, Sr., who was successful in Interesting well-known people and In effecting the first organization. She Is president, and Charles Arthur Carlisle and C. B. Stephenson are vicepresidents. Miss Jean Pond is the secretary and John Campbell is the treasurer. Otto Bastian, Simon Greenebaum, Howard Woolverton and C. C. Schaffer are the trustees. Drs. T. A. Olney and C. E. Hansey are the medical directors. Truth and Quality appeal to the Well-Informed in every walk of life and are essential to permanent success and creditable standing. Accoringly, it is not claimed that Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is the only remedy of known value, but one of many reasons why it is the best of personal and family laxatives is the fact that it cleanses, sweetens and relieves the internal organs on which it acta without any debilitating after effects and without having to increase the quantity from time to time. It acts pleasantly and naturally and truly as a laxative, and its component parts are known to and approved by physicians, as it is free from all objection able substances. To get its beneficial effects always purchase the genuinemanufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale by all leading drug gists. Special Prices In Heywood .

Aug. 5. At 10:5." this morning we bid our friends "adieu," and are now j on a special train furnished by the Pal- i ladium, bound for Niagara. At 1 :.') ; p. m., a dainty lunch wz3 served on the j train. We are traveling fast, and all are happy and smiling at the prospect j of the wonders we are expecting to i witness within a few hours. At 7:4." : p. m., Mr. Golding escorted us to a ' down town hotel, at Montpelier, O., j

where, in spite of our time being limited to twelve minute, we c.te a hearty supper and returned to the train, feeling refreshed after our brisk little walk from train to hotel. We retired to our birth3 to snatch a few hours' rest, and as we arrived at the Detroit river at midnight, where the train was switched on to a ferry boat to be carried to the shores of Canada, we were escorted to tho upper deck of the ferry. Here we looked upon a very beautiful scene. The moon was shining brightly and the ferrys, steamers and pleasure boats going and coming in all directions with the liehts in the buildings on the shores of either side of the river made our surroundings very unique. We were twenty minutes crossing the river. When we reached Canada we retired. Aug. 0. Arrived at Niagara this morning at 7:30 o'clock and proceeded to the Tower hotel, which is located a short distance from the falls. After breakfast we spent the remaining part of the morning resting. At 2:3 p. m. we took a car for the great gorge route. A stop was made at the observatory or tower, three ctories in height, where, from the balcony, we gazed upon a most wonderful scene. The falls in all their grandeur were rushing angrily over the huge rocks, falling a distance of 2.12 feet. From our posi tion on the balcony we could view the American, Gaston and Horseshoe Falls and no more entrancing scene could be imagined. While near the falls there is mist falling like rain. Our next stop was whirl-pool rapids, which are 252 feet below the city. Taking an elevator we descended the cliff, and after walking a short distance on an elevated board walk, we stopped in wonder at the novel scene before us. The waters were rushing fiercely over the rocks, with so much force, it seemed to the excited watchers as if they would tear down the beautiful cliffs that rose on either side of the beautiful river Niagara. Wc again started on our sight-seeing, next stopping at the whirlpool. From a high cliff we looked down upon a sight not to be soon forgotten. The whirlpool is at the bend where the river turns. Every large object, it is said, that goes down the falls, is usually sought and found in the whirlpool, where it Is whirled around and round perhaps a million times before it sinks forever. Our next stop was at Brooks' monu ment, which is located in a park just across the river in Cancda. it is 1ST feet high. From the park we had a fine view of the Niagara river. We then continued our journey by the gorge route, being on a trolley car run- j ning below the city 252 feet. Beauti- ; ful rocky cliffs stand on one side and ; the river Niagara flows on the other. After reaching the city again we went i to the hotel, tired, but more than de- j lighted. Aug. 7. After a good night's rest . and breakfast, we again started, at i 9:30, in a sight-seeing auto, to sec more of Niagara. The first stop was at Luna sland, which is just above and very near the American Falls. Our next two 6tops were at Goat sland, just over Gaston Falls, and Three Sisters Island, which are above Horseshoe ' Falls. We were almost spellbound by our wonderful surroundings. We were 2oO feet above the river gorge. The mist forms a rainbow on the river just below the falls, and it Is certainly a pretty sight. We reluctantly left the scenes before us and proceeded to the home of shreded wheat. We were led by a guide through the different parts of the factory. Leaving the factory we returned to the gorge, where each member of the party was presented with a souvenir postal. We then returned to dinner again, delighted with our morning's tour. After dinner we went aboard the "Maid of the Mist." which is a little pleasure steamer that tours the river and the Falls. As we went aboard, each of us donned a rubber coat and cap. A jolly trip it was to be sure, and one long to be remembered. We then went back to the hotel to supper, after which we took another sight-seeing tour in autos. this time seeing the suburbs and most important factories of Niagara, including the famous power house. Aug. 8. Toronto, Canada We left Niagara at lOiIMMhis morning by the Great Gorge route to Lewiston, where we boarded the steamer Cayuaga, bound for Toronto, where we arrived safely after a two and one-half hours' ride on Lake Ontario. This being our first experience on a steamer, we all enjoyed the trip immensely. On either side of us we could see nothing but water and the heavens above. After docking at Toronto, where our baggage was inspected, we took a tally-ho : and were driven to the Arlington IIotel. This evening we took a fifty min- ! utes car ride over the city of Toron to, which was greatly enjoyed by all. Aug. 9. This morning we were touring the oldest city in Canada in tallyhos, furnished for our especial benefit by Mr. Golding. Some of the most Important buildings we viewed were St. James Cathedral. Confederation Life building, which covers threefourths of a square, the largest sanitarium In the world. After a fourteen mile tour we returned to the hotel tired, but more than pleased with our trip. After dinner we boarded a fer

ry and crossed Toronto Bay to Hanlin Park, where we remained an hour or so, enjoying the band concert before returning to supper. Aug. lO.-Buffalo, N. Y.-We left Toronto by steamer at KKJO a. m., af

ter we were driven to the wharf in a j tally-ho. Took our dinners in the ! dining room of the steamer. About 1 l p. m.. we reached Niagara, where we took the train for Buffalo. We arrived here this afternoon and were escorted to the Arlington hotel. Aug. 11 Still In Buffalo This morning it rained and very little sight-seeing was done. After dinner we took an auto to get a few glimpses of Buffalo. Some . of the most important places we saw were Liberty Avenue Park , Pan American exposition grounds, where President McKinley was shot and the residence in which Roosevelt took his oath of office. We returned to supper, after a very pleasant tour of the city. After supper we went to Crystal Beach by steamer.' It is a sort of pleasure resort, and led and guided by Mr. Golding. we saw and enjoyed all the main attractions. At a late hour, and after a jolly time, we went back to the steamer and started back to Buffalo. There was an orchestra on the steamer and all who cared to do so, were privileged to dance. After an hour's sail we were lack at Buffalo. ' August 12. We bid farewell to Buffalo at 5:30 this evening and are now on the Eastern States steamer, bound j for Detroit, Michigan. We are sail-1 ing on Lake Erie and a wild storm is j raging and the ship is rocking furiously. Some, feeling ill have retired. August 13. After a wild night's sail the lake became more calm this morning and we arrived in Detroit safe. but tired. We were driven to the j Brunswick hotel in an omnibus. We will never forget our wild sail across Lake Erie in the beautiful Eastern States steamer. Red Velvet Brussels carpet covered floors and stairs and each state-room was furnished with two berths, making room for three persons. But for the terrible rocking one would imagine they were in a large parlor, for the ornamental work adorning the walls and stairways was wonderful. This afternoon we went sight-seeing in a large Metropolitan auto. We were over the most important thoroughfares and then to Waterworks park. Here we saw the floral clock which is in a high mound built from moss and flowers and really gives correct standard time. We also saw a floral calendar here. The date is exactly correct and is changed every day. Both are run by water power. We were permitted to stop over ten minutes to explore the power house. To describe the wonderful machinery would be impossible. We were next taken to Belle Isle park, after crossing a bridge over the Detroit river. The bridge is seven-eighth of a mile in length. Belle Isle is a very beautiful place, covering 700 acres of ground, being surrounded by the Detroit river. Looking over the river, you see nil sorts of boats going and coming. Wo rode all over the park and finally through a beautiful avenue or drive way, which is called "Lovers Lane." When starting down the drive-way our guide told us we were expected to hold hands with our driver or rather chauffeur. But we were all so interested in the beautiful scenes surrounding us that we forgot to do that little act of kindness. After viewing the park thoroughly we were driven back to the hotel and not at all regretting our twenty-five mile tour in the great Metropolitan auto. After supper we went to town and with Mr. Golding as our guide and escort, we visited all the attractions and then returned to the hotel to rest after a very exciting and interesting day. August 14. This morning we took a trolley ride to the "Murphy Chain factory" where we were permitted to explore with the aid of a guide. We were shown through the different parts of the factory and after seeing some wonderful machinery we started home and I really believe each one of our party including myself, imagine we could manufacture chains, so carefully did the guides explain every detail. After dinner we took a steamer to Belle Isle park, where we were escorted to the conservatory and Aquarium by Mr. Golding. The Aquarium Is a wonderful place. There are all kinds of fish and reptiles from foreign seas, oceans and rivers on exhibition in running water. After a view of the beautiful conservatory we took a steam launch ind sailed around the island on the river. After the jolly little launch trip we went to the i steamer bound for the hotel and ar rived there just in time for supper. There was nothing being planned for the evening but rest, and rest we did. August 15 We went to the Art museum where we srw some wonderful works of art and sculpture, the work of great masters. The art work was too beautiful to describe. After exploring the art building we returned to the hotel to dinner. After dinner Mr. Golding escorted us to the Ford building, the highest building in the city of Detroit. We took the elevator to the top floor, then ascended by steps to the roof. From our elevated position we could get a fine view of the lake. After our trip to the Ford building, some went to Walkerville, Canada and we girls returned to the hotel to pack our suit cases preparing to start on our homeward journey. 1:30 a m., August 16. Just boarded the Palladium special chair car for Richmond. Onr escort has been very entertaining and could not have made our visit more pleasant, and we all appreciate fcia kindness. 1:30 IX el

Home at last after a very tiresome journey from Detroit, Michigan. We will remember our trip for ever and also Mr. Golding's endeavors to make our tour a pleasant one. We received the best care, accommodation, and attention, throughout our journey, but, There is no place like home. GOLDIA DADISMAN. After a very pleasant and to be remembered tour we the eight contestants wish to thank Mr. Golding for his

We Bon'tt Quiesfffiom that other stores also sell good goods cheap, or do we doubt that other stores quote as low prices as we do, but we do question and doubt that other stores sell as good goods as cheap as we do, for there is not a store in Richmond that is doing business on the same lines as we do.

Rosa Kuehn. Hebrew painters, of Cambridge, Mass., have presented a signed request to the painters' district council of eastern Massachusetts for a Hebrew union charter for that city. The question has been submitted to a referendum vote of the affiliated locals under the international brotherhood law to that effect. In Wheeling, W. Va., there are over forty stogie factories. All of them are union shops. In them over 800 stogie makers, all union men, are employed, and, in addition to these, between 400 and 600 apprentices, not to mention the several hundred tobacco workers employed in Wheeling as a result of the stogie industry. By referendum vote the various photoengravers' unions have agreed to levy an assessment of $2 on each member to raise a fund that shall be used to maintain an establishment in which members of the trade who may be affected with tuberculosis may be treated. How this place is to be established and kept uy is to be decided by the international body. The United Railway Men's organization of the state of New York, which is a legislative body made up of members of the five railroad brotherhoods, will hold a special meeting at which time a resolution will be passed demanding an amendment to the law creating the state and city public service boards, providing for the appointment of a representative of labor on both boards. AJeague of carpenters known as the Gran Liga de Carpenters has been organized in the city of Mexico for purposes of mutual protection. The bylaws of the association provide that all members work to obtain full remuneration for their services and to prevent the members from being unfairly treated. The association alms at temperance and morality among the workmen and will start a campaign for shorter hours of work. An Important feature is that strong opposition is to be made to any difference in salary between foreign and native workmen. Aid will be extended to memb's and their families in cases of sickness or death. In addition to the regular fees the members will, whenever necessary, pay a strike fee for the aid and benefit of strikers. FREER BUYING IHJIO TRADE It Is Expected to Follow Present Lull.

Pretty, Rosy Cheeked Baby Raffled By Cincinnati Moving Picture Man

Paris, Ky., Aug. 29. A pretty rosy cheeked baby was raffled off by E. N. Jackson, a Cincinnati moving picture how man. Jackson explained that Its parents, whom he would not name, were too poor to care for it. Women's clubs were Bhocked and made valiant1 protest for a time. But baby's smile won them. His laugh melted the opposition. The clasp of his wax-like fingers and loving little arms were Irresistible. They voted, as you would have done, that the baby was entitled to a home and all the tender care means to tiny little people. Yet there was much suspense until the drawing came off. Jackson for two weeks gave a ticket to each patron of his show. And therein lay the danger for baby. Therein lay the chief concern of the Women's clubs. For baby, after all. might not fall into the most desirable hands. But the fates were kind. Judge Harmon Stitt. a wealthy Kentucklan, who has one of the most beautiful homes in Paris, a summer home along the Hudson, and a winter home in Florida, held the ticket that drew baby. The judge was childless and he shouted In glee when informed that he was the fortunate one. And when he bore baby away in triumph, with the little arms clinging about his neck and the baby cooing in his ear. the Judge was the happiest man in all Kentucky. And baby, well, there may be babies

The Real Health Food is Whole Wheat Whatever other foods can do, wheat wiD do better. For wheat is the king of foods. But this is essential: Get the wheat in a form that is wholly digestible, else you lose much of its good.

The supremacy of wheat as the ideal food is a fact beyond all dispute. For brain or mucle for the young or old, the sick or well nothing will ever be known that compares with it. Not merely white flour that is but part of the what The o.l and the phosphates are lacking. And not whole wheat as it is usually cooked.
