At no other time in the life of a Boy or young Woman is a substantial gift so appropriate, and no occasion merits a token of approval and en- more.
 The proud day of graduation for a Boy offers suitable time for the gift of Watch or a Fob or Chain or Ring.
 For young Woman, Diamond is most appreciated, but whatever the amount you can afford to invest. some selection from our jewelry stock will please best and carry the most endur- ing remembrance

100000 LIVES SAVED.

From every section of Minnesota the
State Association for Prevention and
Relief of tuberculosis is daily receiy-
ing word from its agents of success
full Red Cross Christmas Seal sales.
In a great many instances the guam
tity of stamps sold exceeds, by far, at
this date, the fondest hopes Of those
interested in this great movement.
Few perhaps stop to consider the
results of anti-tuberculosis work in
the past, and few anticipate what the
future holds in store. Studying COM
munities in which educational work
concerning this disease has been in
progress for years, and in which pro-
vision has been made to care for those
suffering from tuberculosis, we find
that the mortality rate has fallen over
one-half, which means, in this in
stance, that out Of community of
stationary population, only one-hah
the number of deaths are yearly oc-
curing as formerly. In a decade this
has meant the saving of 1925 lives
in the United States. And does any
one ask IT'S IT WORTH WHILE TO
FIGHT AGAINST TUBERCULO-
SIS?" Surely this answer must be
that nearly 100000 lives saved means
more to as than any cost in money
and labor.
Each reader of this win now ask
himself the pointed question "What
part have taken in this fight against
the Great White Plague? :" And
whatever the answer be, he viii de-
eide right now what win be his pro
gram for the future, will he stand
idly by and watch the few laborine
necessarily for the good Of many, Of
will he combine forces with them
who need new lives, new tools, neW

Stood the Test.

That American cars stack up with
foreign made cars was demonstrated
in the recent tour of France reliable
ity run of $3.50 miles. Out of twen-
ty eight starters, only nine came
home with an absolutely clean score
and one of these was a Buick, the
only American car entered.
The test was backed by the news
paper L'Auto, to establish whether
or not a light car with chassis not
to exceed 81, 900 could make a COM
plete circle around France, taking
in the Alps and the Pyrenees, with
no more than ten minutes each morn
ing for oiling and adjustments. The
competitor called for an average of
10 miles an hour on each daily run.
All the essential parts of the cars
were permanently sealed, and the
toe boards, underpan, bonnet and
radiator filler cap had seals which
could be broken every morning for
ten minutes only. The trip had to
be made in fifteen days, this includ-
ing twelve running days, when the
mileage varied from 100 to 254, and
three days which were given up to
public exhibitions.

PRICE, $500 PER YEAR
TEMPTATION OF A BROTHER.

Being the brother of a president OF
the United States should be rather
nice, it would seem. Charles Taft
always appeared to enjoy the distinc-
tinction and there is no reason to be-
lieve it cost him any money or forced
him to resign any of his ambitions.
That his was not a typical instance,
however, is shown by the experience
of Joseph Wilson, only brother of the
present president.
Joe Wilson, as he is known, is a
newspaper man. Just at present he
is city editor of the Nashville Banner
and is pulling down salary of $35 a
week. 1t hasn't been so very long
since he was only getting $25 and
even less.
After his brother was elected presi-
dent New York insurance company
offered Joe a salary of $l2, 600 a year.
Later a trust company offered him
5000 month. But Joe appreciated
that they were in reality merely Of
fering to buy the Wilson name, and
so far as he was concerned that
wasn't for sale. He declined these
offers with comparative ease, al
though declining a raise in salary
from $35 to $500 a week would not
be an easy matter with most people,
especially when it really could be &C.
complished with no sacrifice of honor.
But there were other offers that
appealed desperately to Joseph Will
son. For years he has had an am
bition to become a Washington cor
respondent. After his brothers.
election to the presidency last fall
letters began to roll in from the big
papers of New York and other cities,
offering him just that position. He
did little figuring, and found that
by accepting all the offers, which ne
could do by syndicating his stuff, he
would be insured the neat little
income of SIS, 900 a year.
But Joe, who is full brother Of
our president in every sense, only
figured it up as an idle moment pas
time. In another idle moment all the
letters, declining all the offers. He
knew that as a Washington political
writer he would be regarded as re-
flecting all the views of THE president,
which most certainly would at some
time or another embarrass his brother
nightly. So he will content himself,
for the present at least, with his $35
week.-Joplin Globe.

819 School Children

Geo. E. McReynolds has just CON-
pleted taking the school enumeration
and has made his report to the Board
of Education. His finding were as
follows:
Ala white females.
4O4 white males.
l colored male.
Total 819 children of school age
within the district, being just 8 short
of the census of last year.
A rather peculiar condition is shown
by tie figures Of the enumerator.
West of the Mo. Pac. railroad there is
in the neighborhood of 100 more chill
dren than there was at this time last
year, and when Mr.. McReynolds had
finished his work in that end of the
town, he was satisfied in his own
mind that we were going to have a
big increase over last year. In the
East End, however, the tables turned,
and the enumerator found a decrease
Of even more than the increase on the
West Side. Every desirable house is
occupied in that section Of the city,
but there is shortage Of "kidlets. -
