There is nothing worse than hot water
for making hands red and rough-unless it
is common soap. Hot water and common
soap make combination bad for the skin.
Fels-Naptha soap helps to keep the hands
nice. Fels-Naptha itself is healing to the
skin. Then, with Fels- Naptha, you never
have to put your hands into hot water.
Fels-Naptha soap washes clothes, washes
dishes, and does all the cleaning about the
house in cold or lukewarm water. No
boiling, no steam; not even hot water.
Your hands are not made tender, and
rough and red, but remain soft and smooth.
The work is done better, too, and in far
less time than in the old-fashioned way
with hot water. Why not have nice handsr

THE ASSESSORS
ARE INSTRUCTED
TOWNSHIP ASSESSORS RECEIVE
INSTRUCTIONS FROM COUNTY
AuDtToR-sPEcIAL LETTER Is-
SUED REGARDING NEW STATE
HAIL INSURANCE DEPARTMENT

This afternoon at the meeting OF the
township assessors, a special letter
was issued to the tax men regarding
the new state hail insurance depart
ment
According to the letter sent out from
the commissioner, each assessor shall
inquire OF every owner of real estate
how many acres of his crop he desires
to insure with the hail insurance de-
partment of the state.
The owner or renter Of the farm can
enter his crop with this insurance de-
partment of the state at the rate OF
20 cents per acre. The assessor fills
out the proper papers in this matter
and marks on the map OF the town
ship which is on the back OF the APP
plication, the exact location Of the
mans farm.
For doing this service the assessor
gets fee of 25 cents for every quarter
section Of land or less and 10 cents
additional IL the amount of land is
more than a quarter The assessor
then forwards the application with the
money to the county auditor.
To perform these functions under
the new law Tie dSSeSSOE must put
up bond with the county auditor to
the amount of $1,000.
1t is hardly to be expected that much
work in this direction will be done at
this time, as the crops have not as
yet begun to show any indication of
what they will do. There is a special
dispensation in the law which allows
the farmer to file an application with
the hail commissioner some time up
unit. about the middle Of August, and
it is expected that many will avail
themselves Of this privilege, At this
time the farmers will be able to tell
more about the outcome Of their crops
and VIII be more willing to put up the
ready cash for insurance.
Auditor Leech advised the assessors
to be sure and keep their averages UP
this year and have their books in the
best condition possible, as their work
was shown by the showing OF their
books.
States Attorney Fowler was present
at the meeting Of the assessors and an
swered a number OF questions regard
ing the extent of the rights and privi-
| leges of the assessors according to the
laws of the state.
Almost all of the fifty-nine assessors
in the county were present at the meet
ing and received their quota of sup
pills, besides getting their instructions
regarding the work to be done.

WHERE The MONEY GOES
Captain Grass Tells What Is Done With
the Money Raised During
Self Denial Week.

THE money that we raised during
self denial week goes largely for for
eign missionary work." said Captain
Grass Of the local Salvation army to-
day.
This is chiefly our work in heather
lands, such as India, Japan. Korea, the
native races in South Africa: also
countries that are being neglected.
I'VE have schools in India that are
maintained in their entirety as a re-
suit Of the self denial efforts. Do you
realize what beautiful testimony they
are to the work OF the Salvation army,
and what beautiful promise that they
win give for the future of India? The
children who attend them are nearly
all village children who would other
wise obtain no education whatever.
That, however, is not what makes them
so interesting to US. 1t is this-that
they are all, or nearly all, the children
of our own converts from heathendom.
The very first thing the parents ask
after they have given up their idols
and accepted Christ, is not for money,
not for improved circumstances, not
for better homes-the very first thing
they ask for is instruction for their
children. Many OF them are devoted
with devotion. far beyond anything
known in the western nations, to their
little ones, and In the very earliest
days of their love for Christ this love
/ for their children bears fruit in the de-
sire that those children should be edu-
Gated and trained to follow Him.
And yet. they cannot possibly pro-
vide the cost. The great bulk OF our
people in India. and the great bulk OF
of the millions among whom we are
working there, are exceedingly poor.
Most Of the married men would con-
| slider themselves rich If they had an in
come equal, in English money u
Is 4d per week for the support OF the
father and mother and two or three
children. II is a wonder that they
| live at all. Many of them scarcely do
live. Anyway, they have nothing to
pay for the schoolmaster and school
books and as the government can only
at present instruct a very small frac-
tion Of the total number, we must step
into the breach.
when, therefore, you are called
upon to contribute to this worthy
cause, remember that in those coun-
tries OF which ! speak the work of the
army actually depends upon just such
efforts as We are making at the pres
ent time"
