BETTYS LIFE SAVED BY
 USE OF RED CROSS SEALS
She Was Taught How to Care for Her self After Her Mother Had Died.

She Was Taught How to Care for Her
 self After Her Mother Had Died.
 'Shs was real pretty, and so full of fun that the dimples were always showing in her round, red cheeks" The visiting nurse of the Anti-Tuber- culosis Society was talking. Her eyes were big and brown and nut-col- ored hair curled naturally in little ringlets over her forehead and ears. She was just eighteen when we first met her and so neat and attractive that one would think she belonged to the wellto-do class of working people, but when we followed her to her home one day we confronted startling facts.
 "The red in her cheeks was the flush of unnatural inward fever, the high spirits were a pitiful antidote to pitt less conditions, and the big brown tyes saw only sQualor when they were not fixed upon typewriting machine or closed consistently to any view but an imaginary bright one.
 "The room we entered was gen eral living space, used also as an eat ing, cooking and sleeping apartment. There was but one bed and Betty had to sleep in it with her mother, who was too weak to sit up. An open cuspidor sat where it would be con- veniently near the bed. which placed 1t by the stove where their food was cooked. The mother, who was suffer- ing in an advanced stage of tuber- culosis. did not like cold air. and her querulous demands caused Betty to keep the door and windows closed.
 Well said cheerful Betty. with laugh. that isn't so bad as not nav ing any windows or doors to close. is It? Things might be worse.'
 Infinitely worse" said l. You might even take a notion to stuff the windows and doors with rags to cut out what oxygen comes in through the cracks
 Red Cross Christmas Seals. with their cheery message of hope. gave Betty a chance to get well after her mother died. Is it worth while to save the Bettys? Buy your share to- day"

RESTORED TO HEALTH
 BY RED CROSS SEALS

Holiday Messengers Bring Happiness to Homes Burdened With Tuberculosis
 Deserted by her husband suffering from tuberculosis in a double form and supporting herself and young boy by her needle, the Anti-Tuberculosis As sociation in a Western city found an unfortunate consumptive, living in one room with two little beds-one for her self and enc for her boy. Everything was clean; but, oh, so poor.
 That was year ago.
 This morning she took a train for the state sanitorium, where she will have a chance to get well, while her boy is being cared for by the Anti Tuberculosis Association with funds derived from the Red Cross Seal Sale.
 Here Is the story of another family where happiness and health were brought through the medium of Red Cross Seals:
 Tuberculosis had made heavy de mands upon the family, and the in come had entirely stopped for several months. It was inevitable that they should run into debt for grocery bills as well as the rent. With such worry, anxiety and depression it is not al ways easy tc find a silver lining in the clouds. The condition was recog- nized, however, by the visiting nurse and the sick father was sent to hos pital. and proper care was provided for the others. Relief was also ob- tained, and now both rent bills and grocery bills are being gradually less ened each week. Each member of the family has had nursing care for some ailment or other.
 Every Red Cross Seal sold helps to better conditions like these.

NEW MINISTRY OF FRANCE VIGOROUSLY
 PRAISES AMERICA

PARIS. Mar 21-The new ministry of Alexandre Ribot made its declara- tion today. pledging itself to carry on the war with all possible energy. The declaration opens with the statement.
 'We are resolved to wage with the utmost visor and to victorious end the terrible war into which we were drawn by ineXcusable aggression" The declaration continues:
 France feels that her confidence is acquiring new impulsion from these acts of unshakable iirnness and the strategic preparation Of the command CTS of our ormies."
 It is pointed out in the declaration that the alliances of France are not solely founded on the safety of the country but are animated by the com mon desire for liberty and fraternity, which the French revolution had the immortal honor of proposing to the world and which once they have be- come reality everywhere in Europe will be the strength of that peace among the peoples, an ardent wish for which is expressed by the presi- dent of the great American republic as well as one of the conditions of guaranteezation of security of na- tions.'
 The chamber burst into applause when NJ. Ribot read that part of the declaration referring to the American republic. Later the demonstration was renewed in honor of Russia.

HOW RED CROSS SEAL
 IDEA CAME INTO BEING
Originating In Norway, Method Was
 Taken Up Here Nine Years Aqo.

Taken Up Here Nine Years Ago.
 Over s3,250,000 has been raised by Red Cross Christmas Seals in the last will buy these holiday stickers at this ninth annual sale do not know how this idea originated.
 While Red Cross Seals really date back to the Civil War when Charity Stamps" were first used, the first cam paign to sell holiday stickers for the tuberculosis fight was only nine years ago in Delaware. Miss Emily P. Bis sell of Wilmington, read an article by Jacob Riis describing stamps used for tuberculosis work in Norway, and she conceived the idea of similar plan here. Single handed, she launched a sale which resulted in s3,000 clear money. When Miss Bissell tried to convince the American Red Cross that this idea should be made national as peace activity Of that society. she met with opposition, but finally persuaded the authorities, with the result that on an investment of a few hundred dol lars s135 900 worth of Seals was sold in 1908 and the great national cam I2'~l was launched. Since then the sale has gone forward by leaps and bounds, until now the Red Cross Seal is an institution in the United States. and offers to every one a chance to help in the peoples fight against the peoples disease. Last year over 76.- 100000 Seals were sold. and this year the American Red Cross and The Ma tional Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis. who con- duct the sale, are out for 100000 900 sale or sl,OOO.OOO for the Tuberculosis War.
 The policy on which the sale is con- ducted Is that the money, except for the deduction of legitimate expenses. shall remain in the community where the Seals are sold.

MEAT IS CHEAP IN
ALSACE-LORRA|NE

With the French Armies, Aug. 26.
by mail)---Tbe cheapest place In
the world to buy meat In precisely
whore the ordinary mortal might
consider II the dearest namely, In
the German occupied portions OF
AIsace and Lorraine.
While meat In all other portions
OF Germany IL selling at an average
OF Q and marks pound. IL Is be-
Ing sold. on the orders OF the Ger
man government. In Alsace and Lor-
raine ut 10 cents q pound. The In
habitants OF the two provinces are
allowed TO have II In any reasonable
quantity and the great bulk OF them
are now buying and eating more
meat than before tho war.
While tho motives OF the German
government In this matter are quite
apparent. Swiss Investigators who
have recently looked Into the affair
and whose reports have Just reach
ed France. declare that the ultimate
effects upon both the population and
the meat supply OF the two pro-
vinces will be disastrous In the OK
treme.
Under the system the German
military authorities purchase from
the farmers OF Alsace and Lorraine
all OF their livestock at very high
price. giving them In payment gov
ernmental certificate. which. up to
the present time. however, none Of
the farmers have succeeded In CASH
ing.
The animals are then turned over
10 the local butcher who must kill.
sell. and account to the military au-
thorities for every pound. His re-
port must provide for the disposi-
tlon OF all the meat at two marks
pound. which Is the price estab-
llshed for those who are wealthy
enough to pay II, and which is still
several marks below the prevailing
price In the rest Of Germany.
To the poor. however. the meat is
sold for 80 pfennings pound. and
the difference between this and the
two marks Is charged by the Ger
man military authorities to the mu-
nicIpal treasury Of each locality. In
some OF the larger villages the mu-
nicipal authorities are thus obliged
TO pay several thousand marks every
week.
Iniquitious as this Is from the
standpoint OF high financing -
ISwiss- invest lgators declare that II
Is by no means the worst aspect OF
the case. While the less than cost
price at which the meat Is being
sold TO the poorer people increases
the consumption far above normal,
the peasants and farmers, tempted
by the high price which is paid
them by the military authorities in
certificates, are selling all OF their
livestock at a rate that In few
months must wipe out entirely the
entire livestock OF the two provinces
and completely ruin that industry.
