cUloSIs.

Red Cross Seals have been put on
sale in most of the stores in Staunton
and Augusta County. They are de.
cidedly attractive this year, and will
ornament any package to which they
may be attached. They are sold at
one cent each, and the money raised by
this means is to be used in the great
work of the National Red Cross Society
In combating the dreaded white
plague, tuberculosis.
since modern science has demon
strated that this disease, when taken
in time, yields to treatment and is cur
able, there has been a great movement
toward stamping it out. In this work
the National Red Cross has taken the
most active part, and the sale of the
stamps is one of the methods it has
adopted for raising revenues for its
campaign, which has already been of
incalculable benefit to the country.
By means of the stamps, or seals.
every one may contribute to the work
and in any amount desired. If you
can only afford to give cent, buy one
stamp, if you feel particularly gener-
ous and interested in the fight against
tuberculosis, buy them by the hundred
Dr. thousand, remembering that every |
cent raised by this means goes to furn- |
ish ammunition for well planned
war on disease and that not one cent
8 diverted in any other purposes.
Stick the seals on your letters, on your

IT'S THE SAME OLD SMITH
