Gus for the welfare OF the heather.
In a asmall resort near New Haven
tho child OF a poor mother fell III. The
mother TO support the child and three
others. kept a boarding house and had
little money to spare. Tho physician de-
clared the malady TO be contagious.
The house must ne closed and pia-
cardeG, he said. or the child sent TO a
hospital.
Friends rallied 10 tho scene. and the
telephone was kept busy between the
summer resort and the New Haven hos
pitfalls.
And this was the result: No possible
place could be found where this sick
child could be treated under twenty-eight
dollars a week.
Finally friends of the mother came to
her rescue and raised the necessary
amount
But what a commentary II Is upon
churches that so much money goes to
the propagatlng OF various creeds in
distant countries while such crying
need exists at home.
Private h'mes (unless they are homes
OF largo wealth. are not places for sick
people. Homes are for health. Hospitals
are for the sick And every town should
be provided with hospitals for tho bene-
fit OF those who have not ample means
with which to supply the needs OF the
possible victim Of illness Or accident
In this great hour Of trouble and dis
aster which hangs over me whole world,
we must not forget Individual needs. In
our sorrow for the soldiers and their
families we must not lose sight OF the
sick and the needy and the lonely in our
midst.
And We must not permit ourselves to
dwell upon thoughts OF poverty and loss.
or imagine that We have nothing 20 be-
stow upon the poor. because the food
trusts are increasing the price of living.
Here is an inspiring bit OF writing from
the Unity columns: read II and practise
and believe II and cast out fear;
MANY persons complain OF their
financial straits without realizing that
IL is this very complaint which fastens
the condition upon them AS a man
thinketh. so Is he is an absolute law.
Knowing this. the wise one looks within
his mind for the source OF his troubles
and. discovering the specific idea at fault
he turns about in his thinking and takes
the opposite course.
Reasoning from this premise Il is
but natural 20 conclude that II one wants
prosperity he must think aud talk and
expect prosperity and abundance con.
stantly. and then there will be no room
in his mind for thoughts OF lack with
their productive quality for adverse con.
ditions. We certainly create conditions
for ourselves according 20 the character

a pupil has sent me the following let
ter and. as many others are interested in
the subject, l am printing 1t with my
answer:
Dear Madame lse bell-Nnl You tell
me frankly how YOU regard the use OF
artificial red on the cheeks? Can It be
used without detection? / am growing
very pale and It is not becoming to me,
yet I dislike doing anything that would
make me look fast OF vulgar"
Rouge that can be detected Is better
avoided. Either it has been put on has
lily. or in poor light. or a bad quality
has been chosen. Every woman does not
need rouge, but when colorless cheeks
make a woman look old. H. or unhappy
it is time to change them. Recently was
watching a well known actress who even
under strong daylight looks a dozen years
younger than she is. make up her face for
the day. She used a liquid rouge which
she says she puts on never moro than
twice week. She uses no soap on her
skin. cleansing it always with a good
cleansing cream, which may explain the
fact that the artificial color stays on so
well.
she shook the bottle applying a little
OF the rouge to a towel end and COM
menced applying this first to one cheek.
then to the other, rubbing from the cheek
bones backward She included in this
rubbing the skin over the eyes, the chin
and the lobes OF the ears. thus giving
glow to the entire face. To do this she
held her hand glass in strong daylight
and she finished bv carefully examining
her profile. little powder added gave
her a fresh, rosy and perfectly natural
complexion.
Remember. II YOU use rouge, use the
best. Have your face clean, skin smooth
and in good condition when you apply IT,.
put it on in strong light and take the
necessary time 10 do It. t'nder-rouse
rather than over-rouge and. II you have
any doubts as to this, wear a face veil
while on the street.

Not long ago a man came into this
Office and stopped his paper because
he said it was printing lot OF
news about the same people and he
was sick Of It,
Now, when something goes wrong
with the country the Government ap-
points commission to investigate
and find out what is the matter. And
the FIRST thing the commission in
vestigates is the man who made the
hollel' 10 see if the hollcr WAS a
reasonable holler.
b. So we oppointed commission
consisting OF ourselves TO investigate
this man. We don't E,ve 20 90 out

that man was that he was horh, but
he had nothing t6 do with tha,
However, We meitioned it, ard mon

When re WIS m hts early twon-
tics lie got married, and we mention
ga 'lat including the name of inc
Bride and the preacher and the rel
.atvrs from somewhere else IN fac,
we mentioned everything but The
preachers fee. VIII ch was HARDLY
worth mentioning.
We must confess that The only
time we ever mentioned him since
was to say that he was wearing
broad miic because of the arrival
of a hoy or girl We searched our
ffies but We must own up that the
only time ne ever broke into the pap
or was blythe help OF som sbody else
We never mentioned the fact that
&c ever won any premiums at the
county fair, fbccause' he never exhi-
bited ahythinr. We never Included
his name'Ir fist OF committees be
cause he never attended anything
We never printed his name i'm a list
of donors to anything, because he

We certainly have been treating
this man shamefully. But we wiz
agree to run nice obituary when
the time comes and tell you who
were at the funeral. We will even
give him special prominence, al
though we honestly believe he will
be the NEST unimportant person
there.

never do anything but knock and
never deserve any mentioning. Still
1t is the fact that many things are
never mentioned because the editor
knows nothing about it. We are an
Xious to get all the news concermae

and if anything is left out it is be-

personal likes and d:slikes never

news about the town. For il is sue

If we left their names out, we would
pretty nearly have to leave out the

that-not II we lose two subscribers.

To the Public

After several years of business in WAL
halla selling merchandise in the regular way
1.-The way it has been handled ever since this
has been a town---we have made up
minds, after losing several thousand dollars
in bad accounts, that will henceforth do
strictly cash business. >As We advertised a
few weeks ago that we would make change
in our business, and great many people have
asked what the change would be- The
swer is: We are going to sell for Cash, for
less, and give you the benefit of what we
lose in bad accounts. " No merchant do
a credit business and lose less than 10 per
cent, and of course the trading public must
pay the loss by paying more for merchandise.
So trade with us and pocket the difference.
