'1dolater, one of the most popular
race horses in Iowa years ago, has
been rescued from a livery stable in
which he was shaving away the last
years of his life, by L. Weibard Of
this place, who owned him for u
years, and brought back here TO die
in comfort in the stables he once
headed. He comes of the best Ham
bletonian strains, and has a pacing
record of 2:23, which when it was
made years ago, was considered low
mark"
The above clipping was taken cou-
pie of years ago from a Cedar Falls,
Iowa, newspaper, and carefully treas
ured in a scrap-bock devoted to gen
circus and thoughtful deeds. Such
items are like blue sky to drab earth.

These women who sid Md work, and
work hard. are idlers, PLIERS of the
worst sort. Spending the.rSSme gos-
slipping instead of in wholesome work
breeds Quarreling and discomfort.
AS gazed into their homes, untidi-
ness and filth were much in evidence
If women waste the best part of the
morning in visiting over the yard
fence, when and how will the meals
be prepared for the family?
Well, I'll tell you how saw it when
l went home at o'clock. At just the
hour when the average woman is in
her kitchen and dining room gettiny
/ the evening meal. these women are
going up and down the street, look
1 ing for cakes, bread and other foods
which are brought home in paper bags
and quickly prepared for supper 1t
is easy to see how money earned by
the Sweat of the brow" of husbands
and fathers from these homes is soon
spent and the worst of it is with so lit
tie food value in these meals that in
an hours time they must be hungry
and to satisfy this craving, resort to
drink
QUESTION OF DEGREE.
This sounds very far away from us
who have comfortable homes and good
incomes, but it is not. The squalor
is only a little less. that is all. But
instead of gossiping over the back
fence in the morning, it is sleeping or
being away from home, having inter-
est in everything else but that which
our business partnership demands of
us. Then when it is time for the meal,
} we stop at the delicatessen shop and
buy expensive sliced meats, salads,
rolls, pickles and pastry, emptying our
purses quickly and calling it food.
The other woman of whom we have
: spoken has never heard of standards
| of living; there is some excuse for
, her, but for ourselves, when we re-
sort to such methods in our homes by
, living much of the time from paper
bags, l am ready to condemn 1t and
say it is a most pernicious habit and
fosters a more or less unsystematic
habit of eating and robs the family
of it's right to real dinner of food.
More than that, the food and combi-
r nations usually selected. are indigesti-
BILE and very costly.

Jane Adams says housekeeping
and cooking is debated industry"
tunity to know, it has been Jane Ad-
dams, of Hull House on Halstead
street, one of the most congested
streets of the great city of Chicago.
Many an economic problem was
worked out by us in Hull House while
at the University of Chicago. 1t is i'm
possible to get the viewpoint or the
proper angle from which to judge
home conditions of the masses unless
we go where these things can be OBJ
served day after day.
Riding on a street car out to my
home in the country recently, through
just such conditions in our city, a
young lady sitting beside me said,
How I hate this street. / am glad
when we get out of it, there is moth
| ing to see."
Nothing to see! When l come in
the morning there is much, not to
see, but to observe, and l am not
through yet observing conditions
among this class of people who are
poor and living in a from hand to
mouth" style because they know no
better.
WHAT SHE OBSERVED.
There is only one way they can ever
know the better way, and that is with
a Jane Adams who will come into
our midst, being one of them every
day and showing them how to cook
clean up the homes, themselves and
their children and how to keep clean

Red Cross Seals should, in accordance
with order No. 5000 Of the Post office
Department, "be affixed to the reverse
side of domestic mail NATTER and not
on the address side Of any packages that
are going through the mail. They may
be placed anywhere on matter going by
express. As many seals may be used
on the back Of letter of package as
may be desired. Care should be exercised
in sending merchandise through the
mails not to place seals over the strings
with which the package is tied. since this
seals the package against inspection and
subject it to frst-class postage rates.
Red Cross Seals may be used on the r.:
verse side of mail matter sent to Aus
tria, Germany, Great Britain and most
of the British Colonies. except India
and Australia. Guatemala. Uruguay and
Portugal refuse to admit mail bearing
non postage stamps. Certain European
mail bearing Red Cross Seals on the ad.
dress side. Red Cross Seals may be used
on the face Of checks, on bills, on legal
documents and on any, commercial paper.

postage. They will not carry any mail
matter, but any kind of mail matter
win carry them. FIJI

Children are among the most eager
buyers of Red Cross Seals, and many a

generous giving to the "grown-ups.' For
illustration, teacher in a Massachusetts
schoor tells Of one small, shabby girl who
brought in penny for a seal, and the
next day purchased another. She then
looked up into the teachers face with
great satisfaction and asked, naively:
There! How many people do you think
that will cure?''
An urchin in another school, after hear

mas Seals and how all the money raised
by the sale of them will go toward fight
