 You should help them at their work.
 Let one who knows tell you how.
 Mrs. Minnie Green, S06 Main street, Pine Bluff, says: "Some time ago felt that my kidneys weren't in good shape. had 3 steady, dull ache ill my back and sweeping or lifting any thing was almost impossible. I felt worn-out and tired and had awful headaches. Dizzy spells and specks before my eyes bothered me and my sight often blurred. I had a great deal of trouble from the kidney secretions, too. So many people had used Doan's Kidney Pills with such good results, that I got a box at Seawelrs Drug Store. After taking a few doses, I could see a change for the better. I used two boxes in all and I have never felt the least pain in my back since and my kid 'neys have acted as they should"

WOULD YOU HELP TO STAMP OUT
 TUBERCULOSIS?
Invest in Red Cross Seals and Thus Aid in Extermi-
 mating Disease.

Few people know, perhaps, that every cent obtained for Christmas Red Cross seals is used to fight the disease in Pine Bluff. Mrs. Elmer Richards, chairman of the anti-tuber- culosis committee of the Associated Charities, said yesterday that the relief to many through the proceeds derived last Christmas from the sale Of Red Cross seals, and it is hoped to obtain $20O in this way this year. Every cent so procured is used either to help victims of the white plague who are unable to care for them selves, or to save those who have just developed the disease. One little fel low who was in danger of early de- mise was sent to the Bonneville sani- tarium by the Charities, this being possible through the aid given by purchasers of Red Cross seals last year. Mrs. Richards has given out letter from the lad, who addressed Miss Julia Houstcn, secretary of the Charities, as follows:
 "Booneville, Dec. z, 1915. Miss Houston:
 Dear Friend-How are you by this time? I am feeling fine. This is q fine place. How is Miss Philpot, too? I sure do thank you and Miss Philpot for getting me in the sanitarium. There are Ii cottages here for men. There is another boy besides ne. He is 15 years old. He is patient. He has been here three months. I can't describe the sanitarium to you, but it is a fine place, and am glad ic be here. It is just the place for me. l will close. Yours truly,
 CIVILIAN ----"
 Just Suppose
 Before spending all your Christmas money, invest dollar or dime whatever you can afford --.n Christ mas Red Cross seals, and help fight the disease. Suppose this was your boy who had been aided? You would feel that the sale of the seals is great undertaking. It is. That's why all should help. The greatest men, ace to the people of this country to- day is tuberculosis. We may keep out of war, but we can't avoid the danger of contracting tuberculosis. Safety lies in just one thing: stamp out the disease. When you buy Red Cross seals you are providing ammu- milton to exterminate the enemy. If everybody in Pine Bluff were to pur- chase just , cents worth of the seals, there would be $S50 to be used ill helping victims Of tuberculosis, and in decreasing the danger to you and yours. Btu. everybody will not
 
 others must spend more. Will you not do your part? It is not only charity; it is horsesense wisdom. You can get the seals from school children, frClr Mrs. Richards, from the Charities or from ladies conduct ing a booth at the pcstoffice.
