WILL PRESENT
CARDINAL WITH
PURSE OF $4,000
People Of Quad Cities Given An
Opportunity to Express Appre-
citation Of. Belgian Leader.

Contributions from residents of
the quad-citIes amounting to $4,000
will be presented to Cardinal Mer-
cier. The contribution will go to
help repair war ravaged Belgium.
Mayors Of Rock Island, Moline,
East Moline and Davenport will re-
ceive contributions. Offerings
should be made personally or
mailed Immediately as it is desired
to present the purse before Cardi-
nal MERCER leaves America.
The offering taken at the church
site Thursday afternoon amounted
to $500, but most of that amount
will be needed to cover expenses
for the reception. Owing to the
great crowd it was impossible for
most people to contribute.
An appeal for contributions was
issued today by the mayors Of the
trf-cities. Mayor C. P. Skinner of
Moline, who is leading the move
ment, stated that a small commit
tee will be named in each city to
make a short canvass.
The appeal follows:
1.-The heroic attitude OF Cardinal
MERCER won our warm-hearted ad-
miration during the war. His visit
to the quad-cities will be treasured
for life in the memories Of all. The
universal applause that greeted
him on all sides showed in unmis-
taxable. manner that he captured
the hearts Of our citizens.
The cardinal is deeply grateful
for all these public tokens of re-
spect and devotion Yet he stands
in need of more substantial aid to
repair ravages Of war in his de-
vastated LAND Because of the
densely packed throngs on Thurs
day afternoon, many did not get
the opportunity they looked forward
to, to contribute to the cardinals
fund. The amount realized, about
$500, will barely cover expenses.
The quad-cities intend to raise and
present to him, as permanent
testimonial of his deeply appreciat-
ed visit, a fund of $4,000 within the
next eight days.
mo appeal was ever made. for a
more worthy cause 1t will meet
with a prompt and appropriate re-
Spouse. Make all checks payable
to the mayor of Moline, East Mo-
line, Rock Island or Davenport"

They Are Natures Warning
of Impure Blood.

The skin is composed of two
distinct layers. One is known
as the epidermis, or outer
SKIN, which has no fibres
and serves principally as a
covering to the body and q
protection from outward dan
gers to the delicate flesh be-
Meath. The other layer is
known as the derma, or true
kln. and is composed of elias
lc flbres, fat tissues, glands,
ymphatics, nerves, etc. The
nousands of tiny veins and
arteries with which it is in
.efIaced constantly supply
very fibre and tissue with
leaIthtul properties from the
REGULATION to keep the skin
smooth and perfect.
This is changed, however,
when the blood becomes in
iected with humors, acids or
impurities. Instead of con-
SANITY supplying rich, nu-
,rltive properties to the skin,
'he circulation deposits the
acrld impurity with which it
u contaminated, into the sen
