Missionary Writes Graphically
of Suffering Among the
People of China.

Pitiful tales Of the suffering OF the
starving multitudes of China continue to
reach the State Department in mail adj
vices from Shanghai and Marking. Mr.
Bostick, a missionary. writing from Po-
chow, paints r gloomy picture Of voc.
The suffering poor, he says. have reached
the extremes of any sort OF means of
sustaining life. 4 few months ago they
were liy-ins on wheat bran. With that

Rare-footed children. all but naked on

provide food for their offspring, throw

that compassion will force some one to
rescue them. Men a few months ago
ablebodied farmers have been reduced to
rags shivering with cold and facing
starvation.
Many have persisted i'm the streets,
says Mr.. Bostick. But one OF the saddest

for some of the food. Overcome with
hunger, disease and cold, he died by the
roadside before reaching his destination.
His ticket and the few ragged clothes
that wrapped him were stolen from his
dead body.
Among these people, continues the
missionary. There was not single one

go to the meetings, taking the children

CONCERNING THE
WOMAN'S RELIEF ASSOCIATION

Last March about eighteen promi-
.nent ladies of Pensacola, feeling that
there was such a good field open for
charity work among the sick, agreed
to unite in an organization for that
purpose. termed the "Woman's CO.
operative Relief Association
At meeting recently held, as they
realized that already they had ac-
complised much good in the one line,
they decided to enlarge their chart
ties, and to take in the needy as well
as the sick.
These ladies are all active workers,
and do so in a systematic manner. COL
lecting and disbursing all funds them
selves, so there is no drain on their
treasury save that which is actually
used for those whom they wish to
benefit. An active committee is ap-
pointed to serve each month.
For December, this committee is
composed of Mrs. w. J. Forbes, chair
man, with Mrs. Ellis Knowles, Mrs
George Williams and Mrs. Sol Calm
Both clothing and food will be furn-
ished those who are absolute need
brought on by sickness or other un-
avoidable circumstances.
The organization will distribute to
the poor at Christmas times, clothing
food and toys, and any person desiring
to aid in the cause may do so either
by notifying any one of the members
Of the Christmas committee, or the
officers of the asso ciation. All dona-
tions will be gladly accepted and called
for.
The Christmas committee is COM
posed of Mrs. r. A. Hyer, chairman
with Mrs. Dan Sheppard, Mrs. J. S

Mrs. W. H. Knowles is president

Except in the case of the very poor,
where mothers are forced by ext

their children, 1 believe that the wey-
ward girl is usually the product of
her mothers weakness.

the household at five will chafe at re-
straint when she is fifteen. And the

A friend who was one of several

My own dear mother never spank

lowed to give way to fits of temper or
to assert our independence in the face

punishment was to be put in a tiny
chair in the corner of the room with
our faces to the wall. There was a
large light closet with a window in it
where the worst offenders were con-
fined. 1t was empty, except for a few
soft cushions on the floor. Usually we
fell asleep on the cushions and walked

It would not be fair to say
that |. Ketchem and u. Chea-
them have done no good.
They have increased the de-
mand for good watches by
flooding the country from
end to end with cheap move
ments that were made to
sell, not to run. The Ameri-
can is the greatest maker of
watches in the world. The
rough usage, the knocks and
bumps an American watch
will stand is nothing short of
wonderful. The railroad man
is the man above all others
who deserves credit for the
American watch. He refuses
to risk his life and the lives
of the people in his charge to
the care of a cheap watch.
Consequently there has been
fierce rivalry between the diff
ferent makers. At the front
of all of them stands the
Hamilton Timekeeper," car
ried by more than half and
nearly So per cent of the rail
road men in the United
States-where watch inspec-
ton is enforced. The Ham
ilton is also made for the bus
mess man, his daughter and
his son. They are for every
walk in life and range in
price from $13.25 to $125.O0.
