Little Rock, Ark, Oct. 26.-On Mon
day afternoon when Hon. W. G. Nc
Adoo, Secretary of the U. S. Treasury
appeared at the Palace Theatre to de-
liver an address on the purchasing
of Liberty Bonds, he met with very
pleasing and welcome surprise from
a delegation of Negroes, consisting of
high officials of the Mosaic Templars
of America who were seated on the
platform, when the delegation pre-
sented the Secretary with a check
for $4,000 as subscription to Liberty
Bonds for the organization. The
committee consisted of Messrs. A. E.
Bush, chairman, who is secretary
treasurer of the Monument Depart
ment; S. j. Elliott, National Grand
Master; c. E. Bush National Grand
Scribe and Treasurer; S. A, Jones,
Acknowledgement, and j. H. McConico,

This organization is a purely Ne

membership of more than sixty
thousand, owns it's own home building
in Little Rock, Ark, that is valued at
more than sixty thousand dollars, and
has total assets to the amount OF
more than 100000.
Secretary McAdoo arose to speak
and then something happened. A
committee of five leaders of the Ne
gro race were on the stage, and their
spokesman, Scipio A. Jones, came
forward and in few chosen remarks
presented the distinguished visitor
with check for $4,000, the contribu
ton of the Mosaic Templars OF
America, with headquarters in Little
Rock, to the Liberty Loan campaign

An Easy Way
To Reduce Flesh
Drink Hot Water and Take
TasScO

Haven't you often wished for q
medicine to reduce your flesh? Some
thing that does not require dieting
or calisthenics? Well, right here you
have it in grain tassco tablets,
which you may secure at your drug
gist. They are pleasant to take, per-
fectly harmless and cause no restric-
tions of habit or eating, and reduce
the flesh, little by little, until you are
down to the number Of pounds you
wish to weigh. Too much flesh is un-
desirable, as most quite stout peo-
pie will readily admit, and It detracts
from ones good appearance; makes
one clumsy and short of breath.
There isn't any reason why anyone
should be too stout, when there's
this much-tried, perfectly satisfactory
remedy at your druggist. Tassco
tablets (dont forget the name) are
recommended by physicians and are
guaranteed to be perfectly harmless.
Refuse substitutes, II you can not
come to our store, we will mail tassco
to you.
