War Relief Fund for Y. NJ. c. A.

The organic alton for the collection OF
the Young Mems Christian Association
War Fund Relief in the county is work
ing hard to raise the county's share.
The collection of this fund. is equally
as important as the work of the Red
Cross or any other work in connection
with war relief and is one OF the
branches of work that has the approval
of the United States Government.
therefore should receive the support OF
every patriotic and true American Clti'
zen.
Contributors to this fund should not
feel that they are making a sacrifice.
but on the contrary should deem it
privilege, the real sacrifices being
made by our boys that are going to the
front in order that the world may be
made safe, not for Democracy only,
but safe place in which to live.
This fund is intended so far as pos
sible to provide surroundings for our
boys in the service with the comforts
and attractions of their home life,
which they have left for US, we being
permitted to remain and escape the
mud and CRIME of the trenches along
with all the temptations that will con
stantly beset them from every side,
therefore while we remain and enjoy
the comforts of home and the compan
ionship of our friends it behooves US to
make their burden as light as possible
There is scarcely family in Prince
Georges county that has not been
touched in some way by this cruel war.
You may have given boy or will later
give one or it may have been relative
further removed or perhaps your neigh
boris boy may be called to be offered
as a sacrifice to this cruel and barbar
GUS war that it is now being waged.
You know the kind of men war de
mands, it takes from US the flower OF
our young men, the very best we have,
fit morally and physically to meet the
test, we have seen them 60 and will III
all probability continue to see them GO
and we are prone to ask ourselves the
question, will they ever come back!
Yes, many of them will come back, but
what will be their Moral, Mental anG
Physical condition when they do come?
Will they come back clean. pure, hon
est, upright, Godfearing men with "a
love for their fellowmen or will they
come back devoid of all things? Tho
answer is largely with US who renal
at home! The good people of Prince
Georges county, of the State ana
Nation, if we do our part we can hell
keep the home fires burning in the
hearts of our boys and have them re
turn to US honorable men, proud of the
spart they have taken in this great con
flict, not solely for themselves but to'
you and for humanity, men that CAL
look their fellowmen squarely Ill
the eye and say to him, am by In
Grace of God and the help of you gooC
people man among men and demanv
my place in the community as such. |.
YOU want to have this type of mai
come back when the war is over, con

no one should solicit your subscrlptloD

Jail Sentences for Motorists.

Exaggerated beyond further toler-
ance, State Motor Vehicle Commission
er Baughman has come out in favor of
Jail sentences instead of fines for the
automobiles who will not respect the
speed laws and the regulations desig-
mated to protect to traffic. Colonel
Baughman is convinced that the pay
ment of fines does not hit the right
spot. He believes languished in coun-
ty jails for several days, perhaps
weeks, will bring the speeders to real.
ization of their responsibilities on the
highways.

Proper Illustration.

It Is mistake, ayers the Illuninat- lng Engineer Society, to use bright light against dark background, and while an artistic fixture is well enough as decoration, yet lamps which in themselves are good and suitable will not be satisfactory from a hygienie standpoint unless the fixtures are in the right position. In planning the tl. lumination of room 1t is only com mon sense to determine just what yoI are going to use that room for, an6 then to arrange the lighting. By do- ing this it should be possible for peo- pie of middle age to add years of ex- cellent eyesight which otherwise would soon diminish. Where children of various ages are in a family the matter of artificial light is of great i'm. portance.

 Shc Obtained.

Wise, Na.-Mrs. J. M. Elam of this place, in writing of her female trou- bles, says: "This trouble went on fer II years, often 1 was unable to work and suffered badly at -. . times, when I could not be on my feet at all. Really in bad health all the time dur ing those II years, and was never without pain, with awful backaching, had no appetite, was nervous, but at that time my husbands sister -. |. recommended that 1 try Cardui, which I began to take :. . and which has caused me to be in better health ever since. In few days I felt that inn provement had begun. My back got stronger and less painful. l got less nervous and my appetite began to improve. In few weeks my improve ment was noticeable, and l got into better health than 1 had had for II years. My walking before had been very painful, and could not stand on my feet to do any good. After us ing these medicines, however, l could walk without pain and was able to do the work and housekeeping for an or dinary family. My back and appetite were better and also my nerves"
 If YOU suffer as Mrs. Elam did, take Cardui. It may be just what you need.-Adv.
