PLAN FOR TUBERCULOSIS DAY
December Set Apart az Period OF
Special Effort In the Combating
of the White Plague.

Churches, schools, labor unions,
fraternal orders and other organiza-
tions to the number of 100000 at least
will be asked to join the anti-tubercu-
losis workers of the country In the
observance of the Fourth National
tuberculosis day, which has been des-
ignated for December 7, according to
an announcement issued by the Ma
tional Association of the study and
Prevention of Tuberculosis.
The movement will be furthered
throughout the country by more than
1000 anti-tuberculosis societies work
ing through various state organiza-
tions and the National association.
Personal appeals will be made to
clergymen, school principals and lead
ers of various organizations urging
them to set aside definite time dur
ing the week preceding or the week
following December Z, for the lecture
on tuberculosis.
Last year over 10000 churches gave
attention to this subject on Tubercu-
losis day. 1t is hoped this year to
swell the number of churches to 10O,-
900 and to urge similar action be-
sides in a large number of schools
and other societies. The tuberculosis
day campaign will come this year dur
ing the Red Cross Christmas seal sale.
1t is planned to urge the churches of
the country to take definite part in
this movement.

LIGHT BREAKS IN
Thoughtful Farmer Learns About
Coffee.

Many people exist in more or less
hazy condition and it often takes years
before they realize that tea and cof-
fee are often the cause of the cloudt-
ness, and that there is simple way
to let the light break in.
A worthy farmer had such an exper-
ience and tells about it, in letter. He
says:
For about forty years, have had
indigestion and stomach trouble in
various forms. During the last 25
years would not more than get over
one spell of bilious collie until another
would be upon me.
1.-THE best doctors I could get and
all the medicines I could buy, only
gave me temporary relief.
Change Of climate was tried with
out results. I could not sleep nights.
had rheumatism and my heart would
palpitate at times SO that 1t seemed
it would jump out Of my body.
II came to the conclusion that there
was no relief for me and that l was
about wound up, when saw a Postum
advertisement. I had always been a
coffee drinker, and got an idea from
the ad. that maybe coffee was the
cause of my trouble.
II began to use Postum instead OF
coffee and in less than three weeks I
felt like new man. The rheumatism
left me, and have never had spell
of bilious collie since. s
my appetite is good, my digestion
never was better and l can do more
work than before for 40 years.
II haven't tasted coffee since 1 be-
gan with Postum. My wife makes 1t
according to directions and relish it
as well as ever did coffee, and was
certainly slave to coffee"

The friends of Magistrate
w. P. Caskey will be glad to
learn that he is improving and
hopes to be out in a few days.
The fine large dray horse
of Edwards & Horton, so well
known about town, was burned
to death in the fire Friday
morning.
Mrs. w. P. Neely, who has
been ill for some time at her
home in the Tiszah section, was
taken Wednesday to the Fen
nell Infirmary in Rock Hill.
Many visitors from both
the town and the county visit
ed the Corn Exposition this
week. 1t is needless to say that
each one is delighted with what
he saw there.
Steps are being taken to
have the Corn Exposition con-
tinued for one week longer. We
: hope it will be continued and
that everybody in Lancaster
county who has not seen it will
not fail to attend.
There appears elsewhere
in this issue an interesting pro-
gram for the meeting of the
next County Educational Asso-
citation to be held in the court
house next Saturday, the 18th
instant, beginning at 10 o'clock.
Teachers can learn much of
value at these meetings, and no
teacher in the county should
fail to attend. The trustees of
each school should also be pres
ent. We hope the meeting will
be largely attended.
If you have never thought
about it you may be interested
to know that many vegetables
have some partial or part of the
body in common with human
beings. When you begin to
plant your garden you may
take more personal interest
in planting if you remember
that Corn has ears. Potatoes
has eyes. Squashes have necks.
Cucumbers have warts. Cab
bages have heads. Celery has
