The Salvation Army Special Har
vest Time Effort,

The Salvation Army is no longer
looked upon as an experiment by
those who are familiar with its
work. but it is an established fact
that there has been more practical
returns for the money expended than
from any religious or philanthropical
organization in the world.
At this season of the year they
make special appeal to those who
are In sympathy with this benevolent
and uplifting work. Capt. and Mrs.
Mershon and Emory Thomas, who
are at present in charge of the work
here in Greeley, are endeavoring to
raise 5000, part Of which will 90 to
the support Of the orphan homes and
part goes to the support of the rescue
work, a work in which they have
been prominently successful. OF
these homes of rescue for fallen
women the army has twenty. three In
the United States. Part of this

money goes to the slum work and
part will 90 to pay OH local debts
here and for the buying Of the things
which are badly needed In cOnnec'
tion with the work here. A saliva
tionist who will have creuentia's
showing their authority duly signed
by Capt. II Mershon will call for
your donation. AS the people oil
Greeley and vicinity have stood by
the army in the past and nave given
to its work we hope that this effort
shall he record breaker. II you
have been giving dollar in the
past give two this time and you can
rest assured that you are placing
your money to the very best use you
could put it. Don't fail to give
something to this noble work which
stands so much in need of your tihan-
clal support as we'll as your good
wishes.
A gold medal was awarded the eS'

One Cause Of Eye Disease.

A Scotch surgeon recently called at. tention to the connection between an uucared for mouth with Carlous teeth and form of eye disease. He de scrlbes three cases, In each of which the teeth were lu very bad condition The gums were soft and spOngy, bleed ing easily. while tiny drops of pus could be pressed out from thelr margins. The breath had a sour smell, and the com pleylou was of a muddy, salloW tint In caring for these cases the first step was to purify the mouth and put tho teeth Into good condition. Such pro cedure. together with suitable tonics and local eye treatment brought about a perfect recovery. This Is only On5 example or the serious nature Ol denta' diseases.
