In Behalf of Childhood.

In the Southern States there are
$1,000 children, from six to sixteen
years of age, working in the cot.
ton mills alone. They have little
holiday, even at this season, and
the working day is twelve hours
in most of the States. Many of
these little ones must work at
night.
The National Child Labor Com
mittee, organized a little over a
year ago, has already succeeded in
securing laws for the better pro
lection of the toiling children in
twelve Of the States. Our South
ern States are behind the others in
this humane legislation. Some of
them have no laws at all, and no
enforcement of the laws they have.
In the meantime the very
strength and vigor of our pure
anglo Saxon stock is being capped
by this system of working the it,
tie children. And the children
can make only the mnte appeal of
their heIplessness TO be delivered
from this slavery.

Getting. Adjutant Moffett was
present and the following proceed
'ings were had:
Several communication were
fread, among which was one by DR..
McRee regarding the Crosses OF
Honor. The crosses are distributed
by the ladies and the rules govern
ing same are very rigid. No veter-
an unless he has been honorably
discharged is entitled to a cross
and the proofs OF his service. COM
mand, etc, must be properly
vouched for. Crosses cannot be re-
placed when lost or taken away in
any manner, but a certificate can
be had showing that the veteran
applying for same was entitled to
same. The rules are apparently
arbitrary, but the fact that there is
such a demand for crosses by. per-
sons not entitled to them is justi-
fcation of these rules. 1t is also
said that the crosses have been
counterfeited and sold for so cents.
The man who would wear one of
these is evidently not very much
concerned about his honor. In
France, it is said, that so grossly
has this custom been perverted.that
it is disgrace to wear a cross Of
honor.

were the elder ladies as jolly and

we were seated and oh! how the
morning fitted by. Soon the noon
bell warbled to the gratifying OF

the fifth, but not the worst room,
for there we found a long table

AN AGED PHYSICIAN
After Years of Experience Gives
the Following Advice.

IF you have anything to do with
medicines at all be pretty sure you
know what YOU are taking
One of the propretors of the Red
Cross Drug Store says this is strong
point in favor Of their valuable cod
liver preparation, Vinol. Everything
it contains is plainly printed on the
bottle, therefore IL is not a patent
medicine.
Vinol contains in highly concen-
trated form all of the medicinal ele-
ments of cod liver oil, actually taken
from fresh Gods livers, but without a
drop of oil or grease to nauseate and
upset the stomach.
This is the reason that Vinol ac-
complishes such wonderful results in
curing chronic coughs, colds, bronchi-
al and lung troubles. and there is
nothing known TO medicine that will
SO quickly build up the run down,
overworked, tired and debilitated, or
give strength and renewed vitality to
the aged. as Vinol.
Mrs. Martha Fraser, of Portland,
Me, writes. 81 was all run down
from overwork and had chronic
cough for years. | had tried so many
remedies without help that | had lost
all faith In medicine, My daughter
bought me bottle Of Vinol IL sim
ply worked wonders for me: it cured
my cough and brought back health
and strength and | am better than ]
have been for years
We can only ask every one ID U'niUn
City who needs such medicine to try
Vinol on our guarantee TO return their
money IL il fails. The Red Cross
