SOCIETY INTERESTS CHILDREN. IN SALES OF XMAS STAMPS rYnti-Tuberculosis Body Offers Pupils Per Cent of Receipts County's Assignment to be 130,000. To Interest schools of Wayne county to enter the campaign for selling Red Cross seals, arrangements are being made by the antl-tuberculosia society to permit the pupils to retain twenty-five per cent of the receipts of their sales for school libraries." Wayne county's supply of stamps this year is 130,000 although less than 100,000 were sold laet year. Dr. S. Edgar Bond, county sales agent for the tuberculosis society, said he believed the wide observance of health day will create a new demand for stamps and most of the supply will be Bold. The Domestic Science has contracted for a supply of the stamps. The association will retain fifty per cent

in its treasury. It probably will be the active agent in Richmond for disposing of many of the stamps. . Twenty-five per cent of the money from all stamps sold goes to the state commission or national commission while the anti-tuberculosis society has seventy-five per cent at its disposal. Thus If twenty-five per cent' is allowed the schools for selling the seals, it will be profitable to the tuberculosis society and will be the means of the society for next year's work. The recent revival of the anti-tuberculosis work in this county by agencies outside the anti-tuberculosis society with which the society is cooperating, will be pressed forward and given publicity in order to interest cltliens in giving their pennies to the cause through the medium of the tamps.

COAL PRICES. SENSE OF HUMOR HELPSMELPOLOER Charity Secretary Sees Ridiculous as Well as Pathetic Situations. The business of dispensing charity has its humorous side, acording to secretary Melpolder of the central bureou. Any one with a sense of humor can get a good laugh from many of the expeiences of the charity worker. The other day Mr. Melpolder provided a family with transportation to return to Virginia. He came from the south, and recognized in the woman an habitual snuff-dipper. He approached the husband about it. 'Your wife is a snuff-dipper, isn't she?" he asked. Well, no. She used to be, but I broke her of that nasty habit, and now she chews tobacco. That won't hurt anybody," replied the Virginian. Two or three days ago a motherly looking woman entered the office and told Mr. Melpolder a long story about "her boy" whom, she said was no relation to her, but she felt a deep affection and concern for him. She finishby asking for a pair of pants. "I want my boy to go to Sunday school with me Sunday," the woman explained. "I would not want him associating with the other Sunday school pupils in shabby clothes. But I want him to be a Christian,and he will be embarrassed unless he has some better clothes to go to Sunday school In." Mr. Melpolder was sympathetic and looked through his card index to see if any trousers were listed. In order to gain some idea of the size required, he asked a few questions. "How old is your boy?" he asked. "My boy? Oh, he's 26 going on 27," the woman replied. Further questioning revealed that the "boy" had been supporting himself for ten years, and his mother for part of the time. He told the woman to send "her boy" to the bureau, but he has not appeared.

Richter of St. Andrew's school has announced the plan for fitting up a gymnasium for the school. The St. John's Berchman Boys' society has volunteered to raise the funds for the purchase of equipment, and active work has been commenced in the matter of selecting the necessary apparatus. A full equipment of floor apparatus and weights will be installed, and it is hoped to have the gymnasium ready for use by the first of the year. Domestic science work in the school will also begin about January 1. A part of the equipment has been purchased and a rough outline of the course of study has been worked out. In this work Prof. Richter is cooperating with the sisters of the church. Prof. Richter said today: "The benefits from this new work will be very great, and we expect to develop a complete course as soon as possible. However, we wish to keep the work balanced and do not intend to neglect the other studies. I have experienced several cases where pupils coming from other schools where the vocational studies were carried to extremes, were deficient in their knowledge of grammar and arithmetic. We hope to avoid anr such conditions in St. Andrew's."

Sam Ford, enroute from the East to his home In Indianapolis, after an absence of two months, stopped off in Richmond Friday and Saturday just to pass a few hours with some of his old cronies in the Post rooms. Sam is looking well. He always does, and he fairly raidates enthusiasm ; energy and youth. Nobody ever thinks of asking how "old" Sam is; rather it is "How young is Sam," and the nearest guess is that he at least twenty years younger than he was ten years ago. Being one of the earliest members of Post C, it is natural that the Post and its members should be very close to Sam's heart, and Friday night as he sat In the post rooms conversing with friends, he grew reminiscent and recalled some of the early trials and tribulations of the post soon after its formation. "It was a great day" said Sam, "when we moved into these post rooms away back there in 1895, and the furnishings we had were not exactly luxurious, but they answered the purpose well. Just now I think Post C rooms are not to be equalled in but few places in the country." Charley Morgan, now residing at Muncie, was in Richmond during the past week and was a visitor at the Post rooms. Next Saturday night, Nov. 14th, there will be the initial smoker of the season. The postmembers are all expected to be present. Make up your mind now to be there. The last meeting of the state board at Anderson resulated in Posts O and AA reconciling their differences and amalgamating as one post viz: Post O. A committee of five from each post chosen by the president of each met jointly with State President Steele as conferee, adjusted an agreement which was formally ratified by the members of each post and post AA surrendered its charter and fraternized with Post O. So ends a somewhat lengthy chapter, which has been a bone of contention in the Indiana division. Membership reports from every state in which the T. P. A. is represented, are not encouraging. This Is a real off year in organization building of every sort, and the T. P. A. with other bodies in the fraternal line, has suffered in consequence. There has been no backward step excepting in the membership, the gains falling way short of last year at this time. Business depression in every part of the country is responsible for the lack A WEAK WOMAN AND HER STORY III Floral, Ark., Lives a Lady Who Feels That Her Strength Was Restored by Cardui. Floral, Ark. "I must speak a good urord for Cardui," writes Mrs. viola Baker, of this place. "About a month ago I was in very bad health. I was so weak and nervous that I was not able to do my housework. "My husband bought me one bottle of Cardui, the woman's tonic. I took it according to directions and now I am in good health. "I think Cardui is a fine tonic tor weak women." And you are not the only lady who thinks so, Mrs. Baker. Thousands, like you, have written to tell of the wonderful benefit Cardui has been to them. Cardui contains no minerals, or other powerful drugs. It contains no glycerin or other mawkish-tasting ingredients. It is just a pure, natural extract, of natural vegetable herbs, that have been found to regulate the womanly functions and strengthen the female system. All druggists sell Cardui. See yours about it.

Hair If you want plenty of thick, beautiful, glossy, silkly hair, do by all means get rid of dandruff, for it will starve your hair and ruin it if you don't. It doesn't do much good to try to brush or wash it out. The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to disI solve it, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid Arvon; apply it at night ; when retiring; use enough to moisten ; the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By morning most, if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it. You will find, too, that all itching ' and digging of the scalp will stop, and your hair will be silkly, fluffy, lustrous, soft and look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive and four ounces is all you will need, no matter how much dandruff you have. This simple remedy never fails. Advertisement There are many
