Moore was a delegate to the Chicago
convention in 1916. He has been
chairman of the Greenwood county
committee several years. He has al
ways worked on the opposite side Of
the street from the White organiza-

for oats and chops and bran for the
Bull Moose in 1912, Moore was or

Progressives at home.

and the growth continues as long as
this condition Is maintained. Crys-
tails OF Rochelle salt (svdium- -potas-

long and two inches thick have been
produced, with all surfaces and angles

In hot water, and supersaturation n
obtained by dissolving in hot water,

DANGER IN WILD FLOWERS
Many Are q Prolific Cause Of Hay

Hay fever is relatively common In

not more generally known is that these
attacks are usually mistaken for
"colds." writes DR.. William Scheppe-
grell OF New Orleans. president OF the

sometimes child that seems to
have cold" is taken into a park or
away to the country in the hope that
the fresh air will effect a cure, and II
is there exposed to further infection
from the pollen OF the plants that are
chiefly responsible.
Besides the ragwecds, which are the
principal offenders, there are several
other wild flowers that. though quite
innocent when left alone. are likely
to cause hay fever If applied directly
to the nostrils of children. Among
these Doctor Scheppegrell warns us es-
pecially against the daisy heobane, one
or the commonest of weeds II grows
from one TO two feet In height, has
light green almost toothless leaves,
daisy-like flowers about half an inch
wide, with large greenish yellow
DISK, white rays occasionally lilac
tnged, shorter than those Of the daisy
and sometimes entirely absent.
Other flowers against which Doctor
scheppegrell warns are the dendelion,
held daisy, blackeyed Susan, and other
or the Compositae family. These are
harmless unless one shifts their bios

start a hay fever that may persist we'll

An American Solomon.

The story is told Of member Of
the American Red Cross somewhere
on the Syrian side of the African con-
tnent, who found himself faced with
something OF the same problem the
solution OF which earned for Solomon.
IN ancient days, the reputation of be-
ing the wissst OF men. On this occa-
sion the child was that of an Arme-
man woman, found in the house OF a
TURK at Aleppo, and who, the mother
said, had been taken from her when
three years old. The child she claimed
as hers was little girl OF seven years
and she gave no sign OF recognizing
her mother. The American was puz-
zled TO know what to do. An idea
struck him. He told the mother TO
sing the lullabies with which she had
been used to rock her baby to sleep.
The little girl looked aStOnished and
thoughtful; then she smiled. Memory
had awakened, and the Armenian
woman had recovered her child.
