QUAKERS BUILD FRENCH HOUSE FOR FOUR SOUS Little French Refugee Gets New Home Through Efforts of First Friends Unit. 1 WASHINGTON, Sept 18.She was a very little girl, and she came to the young monsieur? from America who build houses to ask them how much their houses cost. She waB of ValUy. She lived In a cellar with her mother and grandmother. And she had be-; gun to feel that it was doing tnem no good. She had saved up six sous which Is almost six cents and If the young monsleurs could build her a really good house for that he would like to order one at once. What did they do about it? They told her. without a smile, that the cost of houses was something you could never be sure of. Sometimes they cost more, sometimes less. It depended a lot on the sort of house you wanted. But If she would tell them that, and then come back next day. maybe they would know about It then. And when she came back they told her they had found they could build the kind of a house he wanted for four sous. They built It. The little girl fromVallly was eminently satisfied with it. First Friends' Unit. She paid over the four sous, got her mother and her grandmother out of their cellar, told how she had been spending her money, and they have been sharing that four-sou mansion ever since. The young monsleurs were Quakers, members of America's first "Friends' Unit." They went to Prance In July. 1917. Others have followed. They include not only house builders, mechanics and carpenters and architects, but farmers and civil engineers, doctors, social workers and men and women nurses. All have had a preliminary training course at Haverford, the Pennsylvania Quaker college. About 250 are now In France. Others are in Russia. They are co-operating with units or mission of English Friends, who have been in the field since the beginning of the war. And it is a part of the deep, "long" thinkiDg of the Quaker that one thing they are planning hjda fair to outlast even the best house ever built for four sous.

knowledge of materials and their proper

handling. For, first of all, in order to deliver Quality, must be the foundation of a wide range of fabrics sufficient to meet the demands of all.

Many men will require at least two seasons' wear from the Overcoat they order now and a study of our Fashions for Men and Young Men reveals a collection embodying correctness for any occasion. Our woolens, too, selected particularly in view of their being war-time fabrics, insure durability at a moderate price. The colorings are distinctive and patterns in novelties are exclusive. Bearing in mind these admirable qualifications and in full accord with the rightful requirements of Conservation through practical economy, we suggest the following: Our patrons can select their materials now and arrange for delivery to suit their personal convenience later on ; selecting such fabrics as will be best adaptable to their daily requirements from a point of SERVICE. There is nothing to be gained by postponing prices will not be lower and range of woolen selections is bound to be less later on. Besides, a man likes to have his Overcoat handy ready to slip on the first cold morning. Rost Tailor Shop 532 Main.

Captive Germans Ran Gauntlet Through Half Mile of U. S. Soldiers fBv Associated Press.) SOUTHAMPTON, Sept. 18. A party of twenty German officers, prisoners of war, found an unusual reception awaiting them In Southampton. An American regiment was resting by the avenue, on its march from the ship to camp when the German officers were escorted past. Their progress through a half mile of Yankees was embarrassing. The American soldiers enjoyed the occasion immensely, but not so the German officers. "Is this the road to Paris?" shouted one American. "How do you like crossing the channel?" was another query. "Have you any message for the kaiser and the crown prince when we get to Berlin?" was another jibe from the Americans. The Germans plodded steadily on in silence, keeping their eyes on the ground. mm WR-TABLETS - hR Clem Thistlethwaite's. Richmond. Ind.

'They are one of the rarest birds I know, and as Australia is essentially a honey land, they should thrive there." Mr. Ashby brought with him to America a rare collection of birds from Australia, and has with him in Richmond, all that have not been given away to museums since he landed. He offers to show the collection to anyone interested. - . nerv Don't Continue to Suffer cause of Wrong Treatment. BeIf you are one of the thous ands who are afflicted with any form of irritating skin disease, verily you know what real torture is. You know well enough what it means to lay awake at night, rubbing and scratching your raw and irritated skin, in a vain endeavor to get relief from the fiery burning. Of course, the most serious phase of skin disease is the almost unbearable suffering caused by the fiery itching and irritation of the skin. In addition, the disease often causes unsightly roughness a"nd discolorations, disfiguring and spoiling the complexion, and leaving its blighting marks in its wake. Many a beautiful skin has been marred by these disorders which first appeared as tiny red pimples. At last science has determined the real source of all skin dis eases, ana witn tnis enngmenment comes the reason why the prevailing treatment heretofore used has proven such a complete failure.

NEW SELECTS GET MARRIED. CHICAGO, Sept. 18 More than 25 per cent of the marriage licenses issued in the last two days, according to a statement by the marriage licence bureau today, lave been taken out by boys between the ages of seventeen and twenty-one. The remaining number, the ' great . majority, were issued to men past thirty-one years o!d.

Mrs. John W. Robinson has been named as tax collector of Boston, New York, to succeed her husband, who is now in France doing Red Cross work. BttdBiiiS PLU impurities in the blood cause millions of tiny disease germs to set up their attack on the surface of the skin, and in the form of pimples, boils, scaly eruptions and itchy, burning irritations, begin their disfiguring and destructive work. Being in the blood, these disease germs can be reached only through the blood, and local applications have no effect whatever. That is why salves, ointments, lotions, washes and other remedies applied to the skin can do no more than give merely temporary relief. Soon the fiery itching breaks out again, for such treatment cannot reach the source of the trouble. If you want permanent relief from the tortures of skin diseases, lose no time in discarding all local remedies, and begin tak ing S. S. S. today. You will be delighted with the results, and when you are thoroughly rid of your trouble, you will praise the day you got on the right treatment. You can get S. S. S. at any drug store.
