The work of the Kichniond Associated Charities and its plans for the winter were discussed at the regular monthly. meeting. From the reports of Mrs. I). I. Mather, treasurer of the Association the recent campaign for funds resulted in the raising of less than $500. In addition to the financial aid several contributions of merchandise were received at. the association headquarters. The reports of the committees show that the calls for aid during November were fewer than the correspond

ing month last year, owing to the milder weather. Several calls for food supplies were received. Many unemployed men and women were found positions. The number of cases of illness was decreased. In the welfare department it was reported that three young girls, 13, 15 md 17 years of age respectively were Uvea suitable homes. Appeal For Clothing. Under the direction of Mrs. Elizabeth Candler, and Miss Hattie Bell, a survey of the city is being made. The location of the homes of the poor, deserving aid are being listed so that there will be no interlinking of the winter's charity work. An appeal for second hand clothing is made by the association preparatory to the rush of calls which will come when bad weather breaks. Donations received for Thanksgiving dinners and aid work from the students of . the Public Schools and cttilena at large were highly appreciated by those in charge.

DOMESTIC SCIENCE ASKS JILL ORDERS (Continued from Page 1.)

The first visiting nurse in the world took up her duties in Liverpool only fifty-six years ago, while the first in the United States began only fortythree years ago. Only now is the visiting nurse beginning to be recognized everywhere as the most powerful weapon against disease in the growing campaign for preventive medicine and public health. In the first place, the whole attitude of the world of medicine has changed during tinlast forty years. No less attention, rather more, is being paid to water supplies and the public sanitation of cities. But new discoveries in medicine have made clear that the origin of disease, which spreads by and through things is in the human body. Possibilities of Nurse. If the body which carries the germ can be so taken care of that germs

will not travel, the biggest part of the work of prevention is already done. This a nurse can do. And she

must to it for all the world, rich and poor, for patients in bed and in shop and school. There are three strong motives for supporting her selfishness, economy and neighborliness. It is economy to have a nurse. It does not pay to tax citizens for the education of children who take more than one year for a grade because there is no school nurse to follow them home and see that they have necessary care when they are sick. It is poor business to allow epidemics to interfere with public buying and selling or to make inroads upon the private purse. There is no question, although it is beyond tbe power of any man to prove, that the work of visiting nurses after the floods of last year did much to maintain the astonishingly good state of general health which still exists. Every one was so afraid of epidemic in the cities that there were none. Families Need Help. The old form of neighborliness is dead. Families are less clannish and fewer folk live under on roof. People can not take exclusive care of the sick relatives and neighbors as once they did. They know too that they are unfit to do it well. Cure will be quicker and more complete if a trained nurse can care for the sick. But if the old neighborliness has passed away the spirit of the neighborliness is more alive than ever it was. Men

and women are now willing to help their neighbors without personal glory and gratitude. If towns grow too large for people to know each other

'and to he sure they can help about j ail physical sufferings, the citizens of ;

those towns must give of what They have toward a nurse for ail; they are' too ignorant, too selfish or too wise ,

and too kind to try to help themselves, j Doctors used to plan and allow fori an autumn epidemic of typhoid. Today they point the lineer of hame at any j city which allows itself to have ty- j phoid.

Ing a visiting nurse for Richmond will discuss the matter with the representatives of the various organisations with the hope of enlisting the support of their organizations. The housing committee which made a report at yesterday's meeting recommended that the city council be requested to pass an ordinance providing that every bouse in the city should be provided with water within the house either by a faucet or pump. The report was accepted. An interesting paper was read by Mrs. James Judson on "The Housewife's Responsibility for the Public Health." Mrs. Judson said the housewives of Richmond are responsible for the condition of alleys, garbage, ventilation of homes and the general condition of the city, In that they can have all bad conditions remedied if they see fit. She also spoke upon the necessity of seeing that all workers in foodstuffs be provided with running water at all times to prevent contamination of food.

LESS MEAT IF BACK AND KIDNEYS HURT

Take a Glass of Salts to Flush Kidneys If Bladder Bothers You. Drink Lots of Water.

The guarantors of the Richmond Music association will hold a meeting Friday afternoon, Dec. 5th, at 4:30 in the Commercial Club rooms, for the purpose of organization and the election of board of directors to serve the ensuing year.

Eating meat regularly eventually produces kidney trouble in some form or other, says a well known authority, because the uric acid in meat excites the kidneys, they become overworked; get

sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts of distress, particularly backache and misery in the kidney region; rheumatic twinges, severe headaches, acid stomach, constipation, torpid liver, sleeplessness, bladder and urinary irritation. The moment your back hurts or kidneys aren't acting right, or if bladder bothers you, get about four ounces of Jad Solts from any good pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity; also to neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder disorders. Jad Salts cannot injure anyone; makes a delightful effervescent llthiawater drink which millions of men and women take now and then to keep the kidneys and urinary organs clean, thus avoiding serious kidney disease.
