Fewer depredations by yeggmen are
reported this year than usual. Last
fall a series of such crimes occurred
and since that time apparently there
has been a period of inactivity among
these most dangerous of plunderers.
The post office inspectors, whose con-
tact with yeggmen is frequent, since
the attacks are often directed against
country post offices, hesitate to say
whether there has been an actual re-
duction In their numbers; for expe-
rience goes to show that waves of
crime seem to sweep the country after
intervals of varying length.

Good Record Made by Women.

Through the activity of women, in
the anti-tuberculosis campaign, sana-
toria and hospitals for the treatment
of tuberculosis have been erected;
travelling libraries have been circu-
lated, posters, circulars and other
kinds of literature have been distrib-
uted to the number of millions Of
pieces, thousands of lectures have
been given, large sums Of money have
been secured, hundreds of needy cases
have been helped; tuberculosis work
has been started in many communi-
ties where no movement had existed;
and millions of women have learned
the dangers and methods of preten-
tion of tuberculosis. The work of the
women extends from the drawing room
OF the rich to the homes of the poor,
and embraces all classes, including the
factory girl and millionaire. During
the coming year a special campaign Of
lectures to women will be carried on
in all parts of the United States.

The reason man wants to get as
far away from home as he can during
housecleaning is that everything looks
so desperate and 1t seems as If the
work never would be done. If you
would use Easy Task soap the work
would be over in less time and would
be done more thoroughly. Easy Task
isn't like the yellow soaps that leave
