the county board of commissioners did
not approve of the levy of o%ne-fourth

 An Ohio pastor, sending an offering from his people, states that he and many others ate but one meal a day, giving the price of the other two to the famine fund. while others cut out meat for the same purpose.
 An old lady in Maine, living alone and in very poor circumstances, sent two dollars, leaving only fifteen cents for her own use: but she said it seem ed as though she would choke when eating her meals, as she thought of the starving ones in China.
 Citizens of Bridgeport have been asked to take hold and help. This land ought to send several hundred dollars at least. One dollar will save the life of a man, woman or child for a month; three dollars will pre- serve a whole family for a similar period, and there are now 600OOO fam- lilies starving with no possibility of relief in their own land until the sum. mer harvest.
 Time is an important factor in this crisis. In a few weeks help will be of no avail. The sooner work and food are provided the easier 1t will be to restore normal conditions and to stay the epidemic of disease which accompanies starvation. Send in your much or your mite, and do it now.
 Deacon Edward w. Marsh of the Peoples Savings bank has kindly consented to act as treasurer and all donations sent to him will be re- ceived and properly acknowledged through the press.
