By WALTER B. HILTON

TWO APPEALS have been issued by newspapers
in Wheeling during the past week One was urged by
the News for poor. German family. The other was
issued by the Majority for the children of the striking
coal miners in the Pan Handle district Of West Virgin

An individual case will always arouse more sympathy
than need in the abstract for the seshness of human
nature makes want the donee to know the donor.
Yet the dollar donated to the children of the strk

hundred raised for the poor German family will take

months for that family, and there other families.
A few hundred dollars, hundreds of thousands
of dollars given in charity to individual cases. will not
change the conditions that brought those individuals
to the condition where they objects of charity
There agency earth today working for change In
these conditions except the power Of the workers them
selves.
Therefore, dollar donated to the children of the
striking coal miners of the Pan Fande district because
1t will bring gladness into the little hearts Christmas
day, will be of infinitely good for the alienation of
human suffering because it will strengthen the hearts Of
the fathers to out and fight harder than for better
conditions in life
When these conditions perfect when every one
who works will receive the full social value of his labor
there will be no charity giving charity perfection
only through the power Of the workers themselves
united politically and industrialy.
TO just the degree that they unite canthey forge
closer to this goal When you help their children YOU are
helping them And when you are helping them YOU are

IS SORE THROAT COMMON?

You may have an idea that there !i less sore throat in this communit, now than formerly. You are botI right and wrong. There are just as many cases of sore throat as ever There is very much less sufferin. from sore throat, however. and thi. beneficial result has been brough about in no small measure by ReXal Throat Gargle.
 Rexall Throat Gargle is the remedy that we invariably recommend in ey ern instance in which we are asked for something for the relief of sorC throat We have yet to learn of an in stance in which it did not help toward prompt and satisfactory recovery.
 The next time you have a sore throat-or have a friend who does you cannot do yourself or your friend any greater favor than to use-or rec ommend the use of-Rexall Throat Gargle. More than that, the privilege is always extended of using it en- tirely at our risk, because if it does not relieve, the money paid for 1t will, be refunded without question Price, 25 cents.

Philadelphia, Dec 30.--An appara- tus by which blood may be removed cleansed of impurities and returned to the system, and a contrivance hy which it can be determined whether one is suffering from hunger, or mere ly has an appetite, were inventions demonstrated today by members of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology in annual session here.
 A dog was utilized to illustrate the blood purifying apparatus, invented by Drs. J. J. Abel, l.. c. Rowntree and B. B. Turner of Johns Hopkins Uni yersity.
 Dr. A. G. Carlson of the University of Chicago demonstrated on himself the efficiency of the hunger testing machine, his own invention.
 Dr. Carlson defined hunger as a sensation arising in the stonac h, while appetite he explained, is a nervous phenomena of the brain. Swallowing a small cisarshaped rub Der balloon, which had been fitted with long rubber tubes, he inflated the balloon in his stomach through the tubes and then attached the lat ter to sensitized paper.
 Hunger, he declared, caused the muscles of the stomach to grip the balloon and drive out the aid whicl registered the amount Of hunger oi the sensitized paper
 W hte rats and mice were used il an experiment to illustrate the dffu sion, of the blood supply. Dyes in iected into their blood vessels circu lated in short time. until the littl' animals changed the color of theil flesh without much apparent discom fort
 One rat was green to the end Of iJs tail. while even the film of its eyes was the color of an emerald, The oth CT was similarly transformed by the use of red dye.
