STAMP SALE
Wisconsin Committee Fight
ing tuberculosis Would
Get Many Workers
TO INVADE EVERY CITY NOW

| Nanted-The name of every indiv-
idual in Wisconsin who is interested in
the crusade against consumption. Ad-
dress at once, Wisconsin Anti Tubercu-
losis Association, 314 Goldsmith Bldg,
Milwaukee, Wis.
Twelve hundred local campaign man
ayers are wanted by the association
to direct the sale of Red Cross Christ
mas seals in their respective localities
next December. Last year three humid
red enthusiastic local managers made
possible the magnificent sale of $780,
600 seals for the benefit of the work
ing fund of the Wisconsin society.
This year four times as many local
managers and hundred times as many
active workers are wanted. The asso-
citation asks every interested individ-
ual to spend a cent today for postal
not a seal-to advise the Milwaukee
offices that he or she is willing to help.
A direct appeal to the hearts Of all
mankind is contained in a letter re-
ceived by the association from one of
last years local managers who was
asked to serve again. He made brill
liant campaign in behalf of his fellow
men. AS this year s campaign draws
near this man and his wife are both
fighting to recover from consumption
in sanatorium. Little did they know
last December that in the next October
they would be victims of the dread
scourge. But the knowledge they had
gained with the enthusiasm which made
their work in the Christmas campaign
possible, has made it easy for them to
take immediate measures to regain
health and happiness, and once cured.
to make them more brilliant crusaders
than ever.
His letter ends with this PRAYER.

up to the ravages of the plague

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1910,

Most of the changes that are being
made in the methods of conducting the
work of the postofices will not be no
tieed by the patrons of the Offices but
the effect of them will be seen IN the
annual reports. By doing away with
a lot of the cumbersome detail work,
the operating expenses are being re-
duced without in any way impairing
the efficiency of the service and the
savings already effected are SO great
that the department is expected to
show surplus instead Of the usual big
deficit on the next years business.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1910-10-20

The postmaster general assures us
that the postal deficit is being wiped
out and that the department. soon will
pay its way. This has prompted the
suggestion that the road is now clear
for reduction of the postage rate on
first class matter from 2 cents to l
cent. 1t has been 2 cents for twenty
seven years, and all previous, sugges-
tions that it be lowered have been We
toed peremptorily. 1t would have play
ed havoc with the earnings Of the de-
partment, which came so largely from
the postage on first class matter. So
would it now.
There is no popular demand for / cent
postage. The average man does not
grumble when he buys a 2 cent stamp.
He has been paying that price as long
as he can remember. Those who are
most soicitous are the business houses
which use thousands of dollars worth of
stamps in a year. There would be great
economies for them
The plain people need the parcels
post hundred times more than they
they do cent postage and it should be
given them first. They would be keenly
sensible of its benefits. 1t would liber,
ate them from the exactions of the ex-
press companies. And while the rates
charged would be much lower than
those of the express companies, they
would be high enough to cover the cost
Of the service. This valuable addition
70 the activities of the postoffce de-
partment would not create deficit.
When the day shall come that the
average cost of sending letter through
the mail and delivering it to the ad-
dressee by city or rural free delivery
carrier shall fall below what it is now,
and it is evident that a cent rate
would not cripple the department, it
will be in order to demand a reduction.
But let us have the parcels post now.
and we will talk of penny postage later

FURNISHINGS TO COST $4,000
People of the City Are Asked To Make
Enough Small Contributions To Make
Up This Largo Sum-Fraternal Orders
To Help


slip, d bed sheet, bed, dresser or a
rug or any one of the thousand and one
things that will be needed for the fur
nishing of the New Kenosha Hospital.
If you do, notify Mrs. James Cavanagh
the secretary of the Board of Directors
or M. G. Boerner, Assistant Cashier Of
the First National Bank who is the
treasurer of the Association. With the
hospital rapidly nearingo completion the
members Of the Board of Directors of
the Association have taken up the i'm
portant matter of raising the money
needed for the furnishing of the insti,
tuition. 1t is estimated that it will take
in the neighborhood of $4,000 to pro-
vide the furnishings for the hospital
and it is expected that the rank and
file of the people Of Kenosha will fur
nish this sum of money.
Wealthy people in the city have con-
tributed more than $50 600 toward the
institution up to the present time and
it is now expected that the large mum
Der of people who have made no con-
tribution will send in their mites to aid
in furnishing the hospital. 1t is the
plan of the board of directors to have
the furnishings uniform in every way
and to this end the people who desire
to help may contribute the money
which can be expended for the fur
nishings as dictated by the donor.
Twenty five cents will purchase towel
or pillow slip and dollar will buy
"a sheet for one of the beds in the
hospital,
The Association desires these small
gifts. Several of the organizations in
the city have announced that they will
furnish complete rooms at the hospital
and this will require donations of from
$l25 to 5000 according to the size of
the rooms. It is thought that some
organization in the city will offer to
equip one of the operating rooms. The
directors of the Hospital Association
will within few days begin to place
the contracts for the furnishings and
they hope that before that time there
will be steady stream Of silver and
gold into the treasury for this purpose
Here is chance that the small giver
has to show his interest in the hospital
Any gift will be acceptable to the
members Of the board and gifts of
twenty- five and fifty cents are especial
ly solicited. 1t is expected that che
new hospital building will be completed
the latter part of the year and the
Board of Directors hope to have all the
furnishings ready so as not to delay
the opening of the new institution,
Mrs. James Cavanagh, Secretary of
the Board of Directors has given out
the following list of articles which will
be needed for the proper furnishing of
the institution:

This Is NY SSH Birthday
QUEEN OF BELGIUM.

Queen Elizabeth OF Belgium. who
has recently passed through serious
illness. was born December II, 1875.

dore OF Bavaria. renowned as an ocu-
list. The future queen studied medi.
cine. taking her doctors degree
shortly after her marriage to Prince
Albert OF Flanders In 1900. and since
then she has devoted much of her
time to medical research. The Albert
Elizabeth dispensary In Brussels for
poor sufferers from tuberculosis was
founded by her and she has often at.

THE DIVINE YEAST.

Mark Twain is authority for the
statement that you cannot tell how
Tar frog can jump by looking at him
Neither can you forecast the future
of boy by his appearance.
A biographer Of Judge Peter Gross.
cup. the distinguished federal Judge Of
Chicago. tells some interesting things
concerning the boy life Of the judge.
His parents were primitive Germans
and members of the religious sect
known as Amish. They were poor.
too poor to send their five children to
school. Both the mother and the girls
worked in the fields. and Peter alone
got some schooling.
Peter was. a tall, awkward youth,
with a mop Of black hair. untrimmed.
after the Amish fashion; q protuberant
nose and thick lips.
Even today Judge Grosscup is not a
handsome man, though distinguished
looking.
Moreover. Peter would not work. He
was dreamer Of dreams that nobody
understood. But his mother said:
III the Lord doesn't feel to make
Peter work / don't feel to do it,"
Which argued rare philosophy in the
mother, who, with a mothers insight,
saw something unusual in her awk-
ward son.
Peter disappeared from the neigh
borhood. and the next that was heard
from him he had graduated at college
with honors and was studying law.
Somewhere within the uncouth
Amish lad was a divine yeast that
caused him to rise in the world.
1t is good to add that when the
judge became prosperous he took very
good care Of his people.
There is this to be said:
If you aspire to a prophets reputa-
ton be not swift to predict the future
Of a freckle faced country youth.
There may be a Lincoln inside Of
him!
And further
With the career Of Judge Grosscup
before him. the poor boy who aspires
to distinction may well take hope.
And further still
1t is your business and mine to see
that the door Of opportunity remains
wide open to the poor and ambitious
youth. --

YOUR 100 PER CENT.
By EDWIN A. NYE.
Copyright. 1908. BY Edwin A. Nye

It was q beautiful morning.
The sky was azure blue, the bird
| chorus sang a symphony, the breezes
| gently blew. and the glorious morning
| sun was kissing all the regnant earth
| into radiant beauty.
| Before you was 100 per cent Of hap
| piness.
In dressing you dropped your collar
| button and got on your knees to recov-
er 1t under the bed. The collar was a
misfit. and the tie refused to be easily
adjusted. You allowed these trivial
things to give you a crouch
Deduct 10 per cent.
At breakfast the Cruel was thin, the
| eggs tasted OF storage. the milkman
| was late. and you growled. Hastily
gulping your coffee. you started down
town, incidentally forgetting either to
say goodby or kiss your wife.
Deduct another 10 per cent.
Being late, you could not walk and
enjoy the morning. The cars were
full. you had to stand and hold strap,
and because Of the congested traffic
the car got you into the shop or store
or Office few minutes late. The man
| ager looked at you and then signii-
cantly at the clock.
Deduct 10 per cent again.
Here was the day scarce begun and
80 per cent of your possible enjoy
ment gone. Well 20 per cent Is left
you. and you resolved to redeem the
day. But you had started on the
wrong foot, and with sinister persist
ence you kept on getting in bad. BY
lunch time 1t was necessary to-
Deduct 20 per cent!
And the lunch on top Of your so per
cent crouch piled Ossa on Pelion. The
afternoon was but little better than
the forenoon, so that when you start
ed for home at least IS per cent of fe-
licity had disappeared.
Well. there we're q good supper ahead
and the evening at home. But
You started in wrong and got your
wife in wrong, and most Of her 100
per cent was gone. Supper was late.
The wife was not sympathetic. She
was near being cross. Only 10 per
cent left.
A little looking over the evening pa
and you crawl into bed realizing that
In SO far as dividends on happiness
are concerned you are q bankrupt.
Too bad! But
Tomorrow! Blessed tomorrow.
Why tomorrow? Think Of the utter
beneficence, the prodigality Of it.! To-
morrow. when you face the day, the
great referee has discharged you in
bankruptcy. and you have another 100
per cent to start on!
