Why We Draw Back.

Our human intercourse is constant.
ly being thwarted by our conscious
ness OF consequences. II is especially
the case when We are young. Young
people feel that they can hardly have
an intimate conversation without its
ending in a promise to correspond,
or an invitation 10 visit.
Il we keep this attitude as we grow
older, the consciousness that mo-
ment's intimacy may entail so much
makes Us pause before taking the fate
fri plunge.
How often do we draw back In q
moment OF expansion because We re-
feet. shall we feel tho same way to-
morrow, or next month";"
How many friendly impulses do We
restrain because We are afraid some
thing more will be expected OF US.

them to their normal activity. The
function OF the kidneys is to filter
the blood In "A hours they strain
from 1t 500 grains of acid and

the vital importance of keeping the
kidneys active.
Drink lots of water-yon can't
drink too much. also get from any

Jad Salts; take Tablespoonful in a
glass of watrr before breakfast each
morning for few days and your

grapes and lemon iuice, combined
with hlhia, and has been used for
generations to clean and stimulate
clogged kidneys; also TO neutralize

a source of irritation, thus ending
bladder weakness.

The monster measured twenty-one

Investigation showed that the
monster inhabited large cavern in

RED CROSS SEALS
 HELP AND PROTECT.
Christmas Messengers Work the Year Around For Tuberculosis Sufferers.

How Red Cross Christmas Seals not only bring comfort, but provide safety and protection for those who haven't tuberculosis, is illustrated by a story which reached headquarters today.
 Working as compositor in small newspaper office in an Indiana city she fell victim to tuberculosis through some ones carelessness. She was only nineteen and the sole breadwinner for a little family group which consisted of herself and her grandparents Her fellow workers noticed that her cough became chronic and that day by day she grew thinner and thinner. but she never confided her troubles to any one She just "kept on the job" Through an unknown channel the Kings Daugh- ters learned of the case, and investiga- tion proved that the girl slept at night on a pallet laid on three chairs so that she could be near the two old people whom she was supporting.
 Physicians pronounced her case hope less, and she was refused admittance to the state sanatorium for early cases for this reason. She knew little about the danger of spreading the disease to others until recently, but she is now being cared for at home through Red Cross Seal funds and is taking the rec ognized precautions to prevent her in- lection from spreading to others.

OPEN AIR SCHOOLS
 AND RED CROSS SEALS.
institutions Where Children Are Treat
 ed and Taught at Same Time.

Say, teacher, how sick's feller got ter be ter get in this ere open air schoolT' This was a greeting to one of the teachers at the Elizabeth Me Cormick Open Air School in Chicago the other day by puny little fellow who had been envying the sick klddies the good time they were having at studying. working, sleeping and play ing all in the open air.
 Open air schools to the number of nearly 800 are now maintained all over the United States. Some of them this winter in the northern states will hold sessions when the thermometer is down to zero or below. Others will enjoy the balmy winds of Southern California, Louisiana or Alabama.
 In the open air school movement Red Cross Seals have played and are still playing an important part. The seal money. through the Anti-Tuberculosis societies. has been the means for ex perimenting and convincing the hard headed school boards of the wisdom of the plan and also for providing food. clothing and special nursing care which the public funds could not furnish. Red Cross Seals are among the children's truest friends.
