w. G. T. u. COLUMN.
Motto: ssGod and Home and Native Land"

Those who have so kindly contri-
buted to the Armenian fund may be
pleased to know that we obtained at
our meeting for this purpose 1913,
which was Immediately sent to the
National treasury of the w. O. T. o.,
as advised by Miss Willard. Later
through the efforts of Mrs. Shaw $685.
SO more was raised, making in all $751;
so, and forwarded as before.
Returns assure us that it will be
promptly used where there is most
imperative need. We feel sure that
those who have ministered of their
substance to these suffering people,
will feel a greater interest in them,
and have the blessing that comes
from disinterested giving in the mas
ter's name.
Our Union shas contributed $27 to
the Woman's Temple. We feel that
it is the duty of every member of the
White Ribbon Army to do something
toward the ownership of the Wo-
mans Temple. 1t is to be monument
to the love and loyalty of every true
woman. This work does not take
front rank as much as it ought in our
County and State conventions. We
feel that should we fail in this it
would be a scandal and by-work
that we commenced to build without
counting the cost. Should the con-
troll of our ''House Beautiful remain
permanently in other hands it would
be an incalculable loss to us, and the
blessed work in which we are engag-
ed. Let us resolve that next year
shall see more and better work
throughout our ranks.
Mrs. Matilda B. Corse Pres. Board
of Temple Trustees says: My faith is
as strong as it ever has been that the
ssHouse Beautiful will become the
possession of the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union for all time, in
Gods good time.

Few people know that all pants. contain
digestive principles. They cannot absorb
their food until it is digested any more than
animals can. The Mount LIE banon Shakers
have learned the art of extracting and util-
izing these digestive principles, and it is for
this reason that theer Shaker Digestive Cor
dial is meeting with such phenomenal sue
cess III the treatment of dyspepsia. The
Shaker Digestive Cordial not only contains
food already digestied, but it also contains
digestive principles which aid the digestion
of other foods that may be eaten with it. A
single 10 cent sample bottle will be suficiedt
to demonstrate It's value, and we suggest
that evesy suffeing dyspepsia make trial
of it. ANY druggist can supply it..
