THE WOMEN OF THE
SOUTH.

The organization OF the Unit
ed Daughters OF the Confeder-
acy represents, perhaps, the
largest organized body of wo-
men in the world, its member
ship aggregating about 100 900.
No organization was ever NOV
ed by IA more philanthropic or
patriotic spirit, for It's purposes
are BENEVOLENT, educational.
and historical. To this body of
women the whole South looks
when any great undertaking is
under way, and to them has
been largely delegated that rec
ognitlon of Southern valor i'm
the War between the States by
which the Southland has be-
come a land of monuments.
In the membership of the l..
ID. c. may be found women who
suffered and sacrificed when
wars red tide flooded the land.
who bore the agony Of suspense
over the fate of loved ones on
the battle line, who nurscd the
wounded and buried the dead
Others are there who went
through that period as little
children, sensing tut dimly the
awfulness of that tragedy, hard
~ realizing in their childish ig
norance what it all meant.
Still others are "A part of this
patriotic band who know the
"story OF the glory only as
told by others, Yet none the less
true and loyal daughters of the
South by Inheritance. All
have "A place III the great organ
lzauOn, and their zeal never
ilags In the great work which
they have taken upon them
selves, whether in looking after
the comfort and welfare of the
INDECENT veterans of that gray
clad host or as defenders OF
their fame. The little bronze
cross which they bestow upon
the soldiers of the South is an
emblem of their love for those
who bravely bore the fire of bat
tie or the sutferings of prison
.life-loyal to the end.
Brave women of the South
No laurel crown yours for deeds
of self-sacrifice and rcnuncia-
ton, bur, enshrined in the
heart of a grateful country, all
honor is yours as the real
strength which upheld the
arms OF the South through four
long Yeas OF war, which merry

awful struggle to take up the
task of rebuilding country
laid waste, and which is still
the strength that fails not when

Didn't Know 1t Was Loaded.

VIII Mitchell, a colored jani-
tor at the Amuzu Theatre, was
accidentally shot 10y his com
anton, Sylvetus Patton, while
playing with IA shot gun Satur-
day afternoon at the home of
the former, which resulted in a
very painful but not serious
wound. Patton playfully drew
the gun on Mitchell. saying
that he would kill him, where.
upon Mitchell grabbed the bar
rel before the gun fired causing
the charge to enter his foot and
leg. This prompt action on the
part of Mitchell probably saw
ed his life as the gun was level
ed at his body.

THE SCOURGE OF CHILD

1t seems almost unbelievable.
but we have the word of the
State Board of Health for it
that thousands of Virginians
are still unaware of the fact
that there is such a thing ass
diphtheria antitoNiu and that
it can be had OF most reasonn-
BILE rates, Columns have been
written and statistics almost
without number have been
compiled, yet many parents do
not know that this greatest
remedy of modern medicine has
robbed of all its horrors the
most dreaded disease of child

The story Of diphtheria anti

our day. Since the discovery
of the germ diphtheria, more
than 80 years ago. there has
been steady progress in knowl-
edge of the disease. lnvestiga.

ing into the nose or mouth the
germs of diphtheria that came
from some one who harbored
the germs in his throat or nose.
Ii has been found that the diph
liberia germs multiply readily
IN the throats of human beings
and that they DO not AWAY
poison those IN whose Threats
they grow. Some carry the
germs indefinitely and suffer
little Inconvenience but they
give diphtheria TO others. rhe
use of IA glass from which some
one with diphtherin has drunk
may carry the disease; the nm
lcieanly habit of putting the i'm.
gers in the mouth Is likewise
responsible for the spread of
/ diphtheria; IA dozen ways might
be mentioned by which the se-
cretions from the mouth of one
who has diphthcria may reach
n healthy person and give him
the disease.
10 was on the basis of this
knowledge that Bchring per
fccted diphtherla antitOXin and
introduced it IN America lust
twenty years ago Tho death
rate from diphtheria declined
| Just in proportion as antitoxiu
became more widely used
Prior TO 1891, the death rate in

was sometimes as high as 80
per cent; nowadays, whore an

TO the general use of diph-

but one obstacie-the high
price at which ii has been sold
Ten, even twenty dollars have
been demanded in some com
munities for antitoxin sufficient
to cure case of diphtheria.
Happily, however, this obstacle
has been removed by an ar

government has made. Anti
