ccbbler as he looked up from the shoe

stood blocking the doorway Of the lit
tie shop and who had asked the ques-
ton originally. 81 don't know Of them.
What are they for?' he asked.
When told that the little stlckers
were being sold all over the United
States to raise money to prevent tuber-
culosis the cobbler became very much
interested.
''Now, 1 call that good cause" he
drawled. 81 don't write any letters, and
| don't send any Christmas packages.
There's just me and the old woman
left. l can't use my seals that way,
but I'll tell you how l can use them. l
will stick a seal on the sole of every

THE VENGEANCE OF OUTLAWS
Band of Desperadoes Wipe Out Every
Member Of Large Family
But One,

Milan.-A band of outlaws has
melted out dreadful vengeance on
well-to-do Sicilian family named Gala
gero, who lived at Favara, near Paler-
mo.
Several months ago the brigands
suspected the family of acting as spies
for the police and plotting to have
them captured while entertaining them
to dinner. The outlaws accordingly
sent Signor Calagero a black-edged
missive warning him that the whole
family would be wiped out before the
fall Of the leaves.
On June the father, mother and
two elder sons were found to have
been murdered while asleep and the
two younger sons and their sister Flor.
enza were thereupon taken away by
friends to Castrofillippo, in the hope of
averting further tragedy. 1t was in
vain, for few nights ago the brigands
waylaid and shot all three.
The only surviving member of the
family Is married brother, with two
children, living in Brooklyn, N. Y.

the Bulgarians.
From "A Sad Page In Balkan History"
Published at Athens.
Balkan government can no longer
possess the rights they formerly en-
joyed. 1t is therefore natural that
they should, all alike, without distinc-
ton of race or religion, desire auto
nemy under Ottoman sovereignty.
This defines the present duty of the
Ottoman state, viz, to go forward re-
lying on her military strength and es-
tablish Macedonian autonomy. The
Greeks have no right to remain in
Kavala, or In Salonika, the capital of
the new principality. The Ottoman
army should advance beyond Salonika,
to Elassona, and enter Thessaly, and
cancel the claims of the Greeks to
the islands also. This erection of
Macedonia into an autonomous prin>
cipality would serve the interests Of
Roumania and of the great powers of
Europe, and make possible real bal
ance of power in the Balkans, and
stop the present deadly rivalry.

TIL E A r E T H r E E
GOOD REASONS why
you should have your car
ovcrhauled now and worn
parts replaced.
FIRST: The garage man
can give you better service
and you can spare the
car better now than later.
No matter whether you are
going to keep the car, or
sell or trade it in on a new
one-it will pay you well
to have it thoroughly over
hauled, worn parts replaced
by new ones and body re-
painted.
SECOND: We are able to
furnish replacement parts
for all models of above
makes of cars within 48
hours from receipt OF or
der. Have concentrated
this branch of the business
at Newcastle, Ind. (center
of population of the U. S.
Here we have a $l,75o,000
investment in plant and
stock. $4,000 separate bins
of parts.
THIRD: And perhaps the
best reason why you should
secure your requirements
now-we must increase
prices 2O% january LIST,
when the new parts price
lists will be off the presses.
NOW NOTE THIS-Never
before in the history of this
industry has a new con-
Germ, having bought the
plants and assets of a bank

the obligation of furnishing
replacement parts for the
cars it never made.

THE MAXWELL MOTOR
COM PANY DID. We
considered it good business,
even if not a moral or
legal obligation.
WE FOUND $4,000 owners
out in the cold, as it were
pleading for parts. Their
cars laid up and useless in
most cases.
WE'VE INVESTED about
one and three-quarters mil
lions ($1,750,000) dollars in
a plant and stock of parts,
for over $50 different mod
els, made by the concerns
that comprised the United
States Motor c o m pany,
whose assets we purchased
from the Receiver thru
the u. S. Courts.
WE TOOK THE NAME
MAXWELL solely for the
protection of 10000 persons
who had bought cars under
that name.
HAD WE CHOSEN AN
OTHER NAME those co.
600 cars would have had
almost no value in the sec
ond-hand market. AS it is,
they have a definite value.
And by the replacement of
the worn parts your car
will be good for a long time
to come.
ANY REC OGNIZED
DEALER or repair man
whether he handles the
present Maxwell line or not
can procure these parts
for you. Or you can order
direct. Shipment will be
made within "a to 48 hours
after receipt of the order at
Newcastle.

The Protective Power of An Ideal.
By BETH JEFFRIES.

4 collection of 600 paintings of
flowers. on exhibition today at the Ma
tional Museum, is the mute testimony
to the protective power of an ideal
which carried a woman from an OBJ
scure position in a factory, to the dis
tinction of being one of the most noted
flower painters in America, and a
traveller of no mean record.
Surely it Is true that no woman IS
older than she wishes herself to be,
and the constancy to an objective goal.
which carried Miss Adelia Gates. to the
accomplishment of lifelong desire
at the age of sixty, should be beacon
light and an incentive to every woman
who hears the story of this remarkable
woman.
For the women of twenty or thirty or
er'n- fort- who sits down in the midst
Of her path of life. folds her hands,
no s1clInces ner ideals for the daily
round of petty duties. the woman who
crossed the Sahara desert at the age of
sivty. after having studied in Pales
tine, the Orient, and America, is actu-
al reproach.
Miss Gates wanted what she wanted.
and she left no record of years wasted
in the mere hoping for the attainment
Of her ideal She raised herself step
by step. and let neither the admoni-
tions of her friends, nor the talk of
outsiders deter her from her purpose.
Her life stands out in bold strokes
against the background of women who
