Mrs. Barker. the treasurer of the Ma
t'onal w. G. Il. u. has written to the
Madison W. G. L. L. stating that the
manufacturers of the celebrated Wool
soap have agreed to pay to the National
w. G. II. L. one cent for every wrapper
of wool soap that Mrs. Barker will send
them from January !, 1898 to January
], 1899.
All members of the w. c. T. U. every
where are urged to use this soap the
present year and also to try to persuade
their friends to do So, as by this means
the treasury Of the w. G. T.. U. Will be
increased and with less effort on the
part of the women than is usually nt-
cessary to raise money for temperance
work. Mrs. Barker will return 80 per
cent. Of the amount that each state
sends to the w. e. L. L. treasurer Of
that state to be used as its executive
committee may think best.
Mrs. Girton, the president of the
Madison W. c. L. L. has used this soap
and recommends it as an excellent soap.
especially valuable for washing ~tiannels.
1t is hoped that every woman who is in
favor Of temperance, whether Il member
Of the w. CT. L. or not. will use this
soap. and whoever buys q cake of this
soap will see that its wrapper goes to
Mrs. Barker. The secretary of the Mad
ison union will forward the wrappers
the day following each regular meeting.
and the wrappers can be brought TO the
meeting, or handed to some member at
any time, or left at the store where pur-
chased, as some OF the local dealers have
already kindly consented to collect the
wrappers for the union, whenever Gus
toners are willing, and no doubt every
one who sells the soap would also do the
same, or someone will call at houses 10
collect the wrappers, if any lady should
prefer that way.
The w. G. Il. t. has been criticised
from some quarters for going into a soap
deal, us if there was something di-hon-
orable IN being the means of increasing
the sale Of a good soap.
Surely it is a good thing to use soap
which removes physical impurities, and
there can be no Improperly for al or
ganlzation that aims to remove moral
impurities to do what it eau to cleanse
whatever needs cleaning whether along
natural or spiritual lines.

The young girl of the South is almost
universally pretty. and oftentimes beau

Her eyes express a girlish pleasure in
life and a soft consciousness Of her own
charms. Her mother. very likely. belongs
to number Of clubs, and Is knocking at
the door OF the legislatures In behalf of
the higher education of women. but she
herself Is often content to finish school
as soon as possible. to marry young and

developed or changed her point Of view.
The Intellectual woman Is nowhere
more Of force than In the South, says
the Springfield. Mass. Republican. The
recent prospectus put forth by the At
lanta Woman's Club shows an unusual
breadth Of view. and 1t Is precisely what
a careful student of the life of the bet
ter class Of women would expect of them.
The war stimulated spirit of large help

When one sees what these delicasely-

capable of when the crisis came that
taxed their powers. We feel that the av-
