DOING GOOD WORK IN FRANCE
American Girls Giving Real Aid to the
Unfortunate Inhabitants of the
Devastated Area.

There is in France at the present
time a number of girls from an
American college who are perform.
ing relief work of unique kind.
They have taken upon themselves
the functions of peddlers, ragpickers
and hucksters in the villages over
which the battle wave has ebbed
Every girl is trained in social serv-
ice, and they travel about with stores
OF tinware, pots, pans, clothing and
farm implements. The "peddlers"
also sell milk, chickens, rabbits and
goats. Another service they are try.
ing to render, to reduce costs and
foster trade, is the opening up of 8
chain of grocery stores. In nearly
every hamlet are peasants who had
little shops before the war, but who
have now neither the capital mol
the courage to start afresh. To them
the "peddlers" sell staple produce
below cost price, usually on the in.
stalment system. The "peddlers'
have done good service toward re-
creating the conditions of village life
In the devastated land.

SEVEN-LEAGUE BOOTS.

Except for Hanged wheels, the new
railway skates are much like The
ordinary roller skates, says Popu.
lar Mechanics Magazine. They are
intended for sporting purposes and
also as aids to the individual who is
more or less, dependent upon his
legs for long-distance transporter
ton. To enable one to maintain
equilibrium while making successive
strokes, balancing rod is provided.
This is shaped somewhat like the
handle Of scythe and is equipped
at its outer end with a Hanged roller
that is held to the opposite rail. Fair
speed without undue exertion is
easily maintained on level track.

SAD DAY, FOR SUGAR LOVERS
SWEEP substance is Out in Mig
gardIy Fashion by Order OF the
Food Administrator.

If you are well acquainted WITT
the Virginians, you know how ire
sistible is their love for sugar. No
F. F. Y. will accept less than two
spoonfuls in his coffee unless he
should be entertaining Mr.. Hoover
or some other one Of those dour and
mathematical Washingtonians.
So it was day or two ago that
Assistant Food Administrator Malt
bic was travelling in the diner with
Administrator Sproul of Virginia,
and the waiter served canteloupe.
''EIere, waiter" said Mr.. Sproul,
"a little sugar with the canteloups,
please. l like it that way"
Sorry, subj" said the waiter, 'but
the guv'ment done 'ministrated
again it. No sugar for nothing,
sub, except cereal and also coffee, if
you ask for it."
"Well," said Mr.. Sproul, 'you
haven't brought me any sugar for
my coffee. Bring it and l will put
some on my melon.'
The waiter nodded, hurried out,
returned and laid the sugar at Mr..
Sprouts plate. 1t was lump sugar.
Such are the newest of the food
administration regulations. The |
sugar bowls have been banished from
the dining cars, and no sugar is !
served to any diner, except for his
cereal. He can have lump sugar for
his coffee if he asks for it.
Sugar for cereals will be served in
small envelopes, and it is necessary
to make that much do. Nobody

MR.. DARBIsHIRE'S XMAS TREE

One can be patriot in many
ways, and render noble service. All
admit there was never a more OPP
perfume time than now. Mr.. Robert
Shelby Darbishire, the young farmer
out on the Hustonville road, mani
tested the right kind of spirit last
Tuesday and erected Christmas
Tree at his home. He invited all the
children residing on his farm, the
neighbor children and other friends.
All that came were remembered, each
receiving a present and an abund-
ance of candy and fruit.
The act of Mr.. Darbishire is not
only patriotic. it is most commend
able, is worthy of emulation. He is a
young man whose life is full of good
deeds. Not for show. No. No. He de-
tests this. He is man worth while.
The scene of last Tuesday when so
many little hearts were filled with
Joy to Overlooking, one little tot OF
three summers repeating a Christ
mas rhyme was sufficient remunera-
ton, yes, more for all the cost, labor
and time spent in arranging the tree.
Robert Darbishire is a real Dear
Santa Claus to many children in his
mmunity.-Danville Messenger.

YOU'RE BILIOUS! LET
"CASCARETS" LlVEN
LIVER AND BOWELS
Don't Stay Headachy, Constructed,
Sick With Breath Bad and
Stomach Sour
Get a 10-cent box now.

Get 10-cent box now.
You men and women who can't get
to feeling right-who have headache
coated tongue, bad taste and foul
breath, dizziness, can't sleep, are
bilious, nervous and upset, bothered
with a sick, gassy, disordered stom-
ach, or have a bad cold.
Are you keeping your bowels clean
with Cascarets, or merely forcing a
passageway every few days with
salts, cathartic pills or castor oil?
Cascarets work while you sleep ;
cleanse the stomach, remove the sour,
undigested, fermenting food and
foul gases; take the excess bile from
the liver and carry out of the system
all the contipated waste matter and
poison in the bowels.
A Cascaret tonight will straighten
you out by morning. 10-cent box
from any drug store will keep your
stomach sweet, liver and bowels reg
ular, and head clear for months. Do
not forget the children. They love
Cascarets because they taste good
