WRITE TO THIS BOY.

Dear Brotherhood: AS to your Sunny South
brotherhood think it is a grand organization
We have an invalid in midst, Danne Dew
berry, for whom someone made an appeal in the
Sunny South Brotherhood, but so far as | know
he did not receive anything Some of us ladies
decided to see what could do, and we made
up over twenty five dollars We wanted thirty
but had to be content with twenty-five, as many
people had not sold their cotton and didn't have
much money. If we could have raised thirty we
could have gotten nice rubber-tire chair but we
ordered twenty-five dollar one the company
letting us have 25 per cent off, So we have some
money left and anxious to get him as
many papers and magazines possible, and we
would be much obliged if you would let us have
your publications at cost, for year. He is one
OF your greatest admirers, going far as to try
to sell salve to get enough money to subscribe to
your weekly, but he failed We are all doing
our best to help him get an education. He was
in the sixth grade I trust that you will encour-
age us by letting us have your publications as
cheap as possible. ] going to request that
you make an appeal for him through the Sunny
South Brotherhood. He does not need financial
aid as much CHEEKY letters and cards 1t is
very touching to see him watch and wait for the
mail, and when it comes, nothing for him. so
please ask the Sunny South Brotherhood to re-
member him with cherry letter postal occa-
sionally. His address is E. D. Dewberry, Temple,
Ga, Route g. | must close, asking that | be
considered worker in the cause, | am, MRS. J.

TO OUR NORTHERN FRIENDS.

We have good many subscribers in New York
and scattered through the East, and to them
make appeal on behalf of Miss Frank E. Whitney,
w. Main St., Mexico, N. Y An attack of cerebro-
spinal meningitis four years ago made her a
cripple. She has no means and relatives, and
she is dependent friends for a home. She can
have room with widow lady if she raise
the means to fix it up The "Sunshiners have
helped her, and we will ask Northern friends
to chip in. We know North and no South
in this work of helping others, but have
many urgent cases in the South just now that it
will tax our resources to take of them through
the winter. There people in this Sunny South
right now who are in need of bread to eat. Little
children are suffering for clothes and the actual
necessities of life They are looking to the coming
of winter with terror. To some of them it means
death. In this, the richest land beneath the sun,
the land of all lands most cursed by millionaires;
in this extravagant time, when scattering
our dollars with reckless profusiOn over the
and to the farthest of the EARTH there
are men, women and little children dying of hun
ger and cold. If we stand idly by are Access

ALTERNATING RHEUMATISM.

Dear Brotherhood: In looking over YOUR sick
roll see some of your sick have my complaint
rheumatism. AS I haven't the money to help
them, if you will please pardon me, | will give
a little OF my experience with rheumatism which
L nave had for years. / have spent money enough
for medicine and treatment to have bought a
good home, and I still have rheumatism both
muscular and in my joints However, after a
long experience of suffering, | learned how I
could live so I could overcome suppress my
pains, and just feel cheerful and brave, even
If l am crippled from my head to my feet with
broken bones. First by making my underwear
all wool; second, by taking hot baths instead of
cold; then keep the feet and dry and the
body open. Take nothing stronger than water,
but drink pure water and drink lots of it. Eat
three meals a day. and eat nothing between
meals; but have regular hours to eat and eat
mostly vegetables Then retire early at night in
quiet, differentiated room, and take plenty of
good sound sleep. Don't worry, but trust God
and let each day take of itself. BY using
these rules for three or four years, | have done
very we'll until July, and then because did not
drink enough water I had kidney trouble, which
lasted me for a week or SO, and when it left me,
could not stand on my feet. | couldn't eat
drink much water and just stayed in that
dition for nearly two months. My wife would
send off and get me water and then l couldn't
drink it. After while tried boiled water and
found that could drink it and lots of it, and
now 1 can eat and sleep, and with one crutch and
stick, get out and in. I am still drinking
water that has been boiled. Just try it, for it
beats going to Florida. Then the remedy is so
cheap. | trust, if this doesn't find it's way to
the wastebasket, that it may be of real benefit
to some one. H. A. WATKINS, Adrian, Ga.

When we first started the Sunny South Brother
hood, one of the cases which was brought to our
attention was that of Miss Rebecca Whitfield of
flnleyson, Ca, whose picture we published. She
is 80 years old, weighs only 35 pounds; is
cripple, unable to walk at all. She has a sister
worse afflicted than herself. Both are dependent
for support on a mother u years old If you
know of a worse case than that, wish you would
report it to the Jeffs. Can't we help the old
mother to take of her helpless children
through the winter?

Preaching Monkeys.

The author Of The History OF Bra
zil' tells OF species OF monkey called
preachers" Every morning and
evening these monkeys assemble in
the woods. One takes a higher posi-
ton than the rest and makes signal
with his fore paw. At this signal the
others sit around him and listen When
they are all seated he begins TO utter
a series Of sounds. When he stops
these cries he makes another signal
with his paw. and the others cry out
until he makes a third signal, upon
which they become silent again. This
author, Mr.. Maregrove, asserts that he
was witness 10 these preachings.
