afternoon. The trial began at IL O'Clock
and bids fair to require more testimony

TAG DAY FOR
POOR CHILDREN
Police Will Collect Fund in
This Manner for Christmas
Treat for Needy

Members Of the Police Department
who will have charge Of the treat to
be given the poor children Of the city
on Christmas Day. held a meeting last
night. TO discuss plans for the affair
In past years, the police gave enter
tainments at the Grand Opera House,
the proceeds of which were used TO de-
fray the expenses of the treat to the
children but this year il was decided
to have tag day on Saturday. De-
cember -. The police believe this to
be the best way TO raise the funds
needed and that their efforts will be
rewarded by liberal contributions from
the public is assured.
There is perhaps no greater charity
in the city than the annual Christmas
tree treat for the needy children of the
city. Many of them if il were not
for this bit OF happiness afforded them
by the police would hardly know the
meaning OF Christmas Day
This winter will no doubt be a hard
one for many families in the city and
more money will be needed than last
year TO give all the really needy. a
little of the things necessary to life.
That this charity is not wasted the
public feels confident for there is no
body knows Of the condition of the
people more than the members of the
Police Department who daily come into
contact with the poorer classes.
Last year 81 500 was expended by the
police in this city Candies, nuts and
fruit were distributed among the poor

In washing clothes with FeIs-Naptha
in cool or lukewarm water, either in
summer or winter, you save:-
Fnel-No necessity for hot fire or
'boiling water.
Clotfes-Your clothes last twice as
long when washed with Fels-Naptha,
because they are not weakened by boil
ing, nor worn out by hard rubbing.
Doctors BsAs-You don't risk your
health by bending over steaming suds or
hot fire and then going into the cool

7ime-The Fels- Naptha way of
washing takes less than half as long as
the old waShboiler way.

and is oblong. about four by two and a
