FIRST SALE YIELDED $4,000
National Tuberculosis Association.
Which Sponsors Sale. Will Place
65o,o0o,oo Seals on Sale to
Finance the Fight Against
tuberculosis.

The Red Cross Seal-as millions or
Americans know it TO day, is an agent
of happiness and health. 1t was orig
mated in 1907 by Miss Emily l.. Bissel.
of Wilmington, Delaware, who learned
through Jacob Itiis of somewhat SINH
lar seals that were sold in Norway for
the purpose of raising funds with
which To fight tuberculosis.
Miss Bissell persuaded the Ameri-
car Red Cross to fake up the idea with
the result That seals were sold in a
limited number of communities in
1905. The sale yielded a revenue of
approximately $1,000. The Red Cross
then decided to Issue the seals each
year and to turn the proceeds over to
he National tuberculosis association
and its affiliated societies for the pur-
pose of financing the campaign against
tuberculosis. The number of senis
sold in America increased by l~aps
and bounds until in 1917 the total
reached 100000, 600.
This year the seals are again on
sale beginning December l.. More
than half n billion seals have been
printed for distribution to state and
local agents. In addition to the
seals Health Bonds in denomina-
lions ranging from 50 90 to 800. 90
are to be sold in lieu of seals to
large contributors, who do not send
ont n sufficient quantity of mail In
December TO make use of all the seals
they would like to purchase. The
combined quotas of all the state or
CARNATIONS call for more than SG.jO0,-
900 10 carry out the intensive educa-
tional campaign being conducted by
the National tuberculosis Association
and its 1000 affiliated societies.
The intensive sale of these seals
represents a practical demonstration
of every lesson that has been learned
regarding scientific distribution. Ex-
perts of the highest standing in sales
management have co-operated to the
extent of assuring those interested
that every resident of the United
States will have N opportunity TO buy
Red Cross Christmas Seals.

GOING SOME.

There's a barber in town and his name is McFate He washes your crown, takes the itch from your pate. He slaves off your beard and bright ems your skin; Black heads disappear, and hair stops growing in.
 With steam towels and massage cream and talcum and such, With "electric vibrations as a finish ing touch.
 One feels like Prince when they go from that shop A-singing and dancing with a skip and hop. Ladies too, are made welcome in Mes barber chair, He perfects their faces, and shampoos their hair.
 He makes blonde heads hurnette, and burnettes he makes fair, And on some, it is who's hair looks so bad,
 That he puts in some stuff and tints it with red Now when you're all ''sun burnt" and wind roughs your hide Go get good steaming, have cold cream applied To those painful spots on your cheek and your chin, Oh! then you'll feel 'jake," go try it-drop in, For it's generally agreed by all those who come That Roy's got the Record and that's going some.

ReceptacIes Cranned With Fake Securities Represent
 ing Wasted Millions.

Washington-If he safety deposit boxes of the United States could give up their dead stores of fake securi- ties, enough wasted money would be disclosed to stagger the imagination. If a man expects his financial barrel 10 ill up, he has got to stop up the leaks in it. This is the keynote of a message sent by William Mathe1 Lewis. director of the savings divis ion of the Treasury Department, ,> the Twelfth District savings directors irsin ing them to Impress the wisdom of holding government securities.
 'Thoasands Of, people in the United States are losing their hard-earned savings every day because they lack knowledge of financial dealing" con, t,nue1 Mir Lewis. Untold numbers of fake scheme promoters and regiments of investment sharls s, because of this popular ignorance, are pointing out short roads to big fortunes to those whose Liberty Bonds and War Say ings Stamps they hope to secure in eycbanse for beautifully embossed but absolutely worthless stock certificates. These fakers know the value of gov eIn securities. Trey are anxious to get them, for they figure that they will soon be selling at par and above.
 They know that following the Civil War the war issues of government se- tdrities soon were above par, and that there is no wellinformed person today Who does not believe that the Liberty londs will sell well above par, long aaToie their maturity.
 But their victims do not know these facts, and so they trade the best se- curities in the world for some wildcat that promises a high rate of interest. What their chances are of getting stung is Illustrated by the fact that in Georgia out of 300 applications from a certain type of company to sell stock in that state, only two have been able lo meet the requirements under the blue-sky law and were given permits.
 "The other 29S are probably operat ing somewhere where the going is bet ter. If the Amer an people would tive to the matte. of spending and in vestment money 10 per cent of the thought they devote to making 1t, the
 :gh cost of living would be greatly de creased. Reckless spending and fool h investment are elements in the present situation which can only be remedied by the rank and file of our people.
 AS long as easy money is in evi- dence, the profteer and the shark will prosper"
 How many successful men do you know who never learned to save: how many failures who did? Buy War Savings Stamps.

A Good Cough Medicine for
 Children

Mrs. J. W. Phillips, Redon, Ga. phoned to J. M. Floyd, the mer- chant there, for a bottle of Cham berlain's Cough Remedy and,said she had bought a bottle of it at his store recently and that it was doing her children so much good that she wanted to keep up the treatment. You will find nothing better for coughs and colds in children or for yourself. It keeps the cough loose, expectoration easy ard soon frees the system from the cold. Adv.

DON'T BE A CCOF"

A Chicago doctor, on his way to visit a patient the other day, was splashed with mud by a passing truck. He wiped the mire away With his handkerchief, which was thus removed from active service, and entered fur nishings store to buy a new one. He had plenty of handsome and service able handkerchiefs at home What he wanted was a clean handkerchief for immediate use at g. cost of not more than 50 cents.
 T want a clean handkerchief" he sad to the clerk.
 Here are some very nice handker chiefs of good quality" said the clerk, opening a box.
 Better give me a half dozen, decided the doctor, not asking the price The handkerchiefs were wrapped up and then he asked:
 How much?"
 Eighteen dollars" said the clerk.
 T was game" said the doctor tell ing of the experience afterward. q paid it."
 He was not game He was goof He did not have the nerve to make that clerk unwrap the handkerchiefs and give him one for 50 cents, which was what he really wanted He was afraid the clerk would think him cheap
 When you let someone tell you what you shall buy and how much you shal pay for it you are giving the strongest kind of aid to the prohteers. So long as people buy regardless of price and re gardIess of actual needs the profiteels will prosper.
 The wise man will now put every cent he can spare in War Saving. Stamps and every dollar he can spare in Treasury Savings Certificate When they mature in 1924 he VIII find that not only has his money ca ned 4.2. per cent. but his dollar nas increased in valae-possibly as much as 100 pej cent.

Billy Mouse was pantry mouse and

| and had seen the cook give the children q
! slice of bread and butter or some cookies,
or even n piece of pic, and Billy Mouse

so he could have things handed to him.
He often wondered, though, what
they did with such big slice of bread
or so many cookies, for every day they
came for more "Fhcy must carry it to
their home and store it away thought
Billy Mouse, 'and if they carry away so
much at time there soon will be none
left for me,
So Billy Mouse ran out every day
into the pantry TO get crumbs and carry
them to his hole in the wall TO store them
for he was quite sure the day would come
when he should have nothing to eat be-
cause the children took SO much food
away.
But one day he was running about
and the children came in alone, and
there was Billy Mouse right behind
dish on the shelf and he had 10 staIthcrc.
lie was terribly frightened at first,
but pretty soon he was so interested
IN what the children were doing he forgot
to be frightened.
They opened the bread jar and cut
of big slices of bread, which they covered
with jam; then they opened the cookie
box and began to eat the cookies and
then the cake.
why, they are eating it, thought
Billy Mouse, Il never saw anyone eat
so much Maybe that IS the way chill
drcn do They cat whole lot at a time
instead Of storing 1t away

more and they went out. and Billy Mouse
thought he would do just rs they had;
perhaps that Was the best way, then he
would not have to bother about storing
food, so he began to eat
