A Great Contribution.

church projected in Brookhaven re-
lief for the starving, freezing people
of Poland.
! The Centenary Commission of the
NJ. E. Church, South, has the matter
in hand and have chartered ship
to transport contributions from New
port News across the three thousand
mile stretch Of waters on to stricken
Poland.
| The goods from BrookhaYen were
shipped yesterday. The result of
the ladies' appeal will be seen in the
fact that there were seventeen pack
ages Of about fifty pounds each,
these containing thousand gar
ments, heavy winter clothing such
as oyercoats, trousers, tailored suits,
skirts, under-clothing, shoes, etc.
The general chairman, Mrs. Lerah
Adams Toler, reports that the entire
collection was valued at 100000.
1t is also interesting to note that
the cost of transportation to New
port News was $39.79.
Other organizations and members
Of the community contributed to the
cause beside the w. M. S. that led
in the movement, and all have the
thanks of the ladies in charge for
their helpful interest and contribu-
tions.

SCIENCE
LECTURE THURSDAY

John c. Lathrop, C. s. B., will de-
liver a lecture on Christian Science
at the Garden Theatre, Thursday
night. Mr.. Lathrop is a lecturer of
wide experience and will be listened
to with interest.
Lecturing on Christian Science at
Milwaukee recently, DR.. John NJ. Tut
said:
1t is related that over in France,
after battle of unusual intensity that
had ragged all night and left the fields
covered with the bodies of the slain,
the morning dawned with a wonderful
peace and tranquility. Contrasting
strangely with the gruesome sights Of
the battle field were the beautiful SUM-
rise, the marvellous tints of the sky,
the perfume of flowers growing every
where abundantly on the battle field,
and the joyous caroling of the birds,
glad that the sun had risen-all SEEM
ing to contradict and deny the presence
of death and horror. 1t was as though
somewhere in the great world of life
there was a consciousness that was
above and beyond the power of evil to
penetrate or disturb.
Upon the troubled scene of mortal
existence, not very unlike that of the
battle field, for on every side we see
the marks of conflict. men falling by
the wayside, the ravages of sin, dis
ease, and death-upon this troubled
scene the dawn of Christian Science
arises, dispelling the dark shadows and
revealing a consciousness that is above
and beyond the power of evil to dis
turb, revealing a wonderful peace and
an understanding that heals and saves.
1t is the consciousness of the infinite
God. That this consciousness is at
tainable by each and every one is the
message of Christian Science.

PHYSICIAN NOW
GIVING IT TO
HIS PATIENTS
Illinois Doctor Says He Has
Never known Medicine to
Produce Results Like Tanlac.

DIR. B. H. Elder, M. D., with offices
at 410 Shradski Bldg, Peoria, ILL.,, who
has been in active practice for over
forty years, says:
Medical science has never before
produced a medicine that brings re-
suits like Tanlac. I have been pre-
scribing it some time with remark
able results. Personally had suffered
for years from stomach trouble and
rheumatism and had devoted my best
thought trying to find relief, but to
no avail. After eating, gas would form
in my stomach and affect my heart,
causing poor circulation, cold hands
and feet, dizziness, peculiar feelings,
terrible headaches and cramps The
rheumatism panied me so L coulo
hardly stand to move my legs or
arms.
Il had a patient who had also suf-
fered for years with the same trouble
as mine, and although L did all l
could for him he got no better. One
day, after he had been away for about
six months, he came to my office and
never in my life have / seen a man
look better or seem to feel better than
he did. He told me Tanlac was what
brought about the wonderful change,
L began trying the medicine at once
with the result that a few bottles re-
lieved me entirely of stomach trouble,
rheumatism and all other ailments.
Although / am an extra hearty eater
nothing never disagrees with me any
more. I have prescribed Tanlac in
cases of rheumatism, kidney and
bladder disorders and a run down con-
dition with wonderful results, and I
feel that I ought to give my expert
ence with Tanlac to the public for the
benefit of suffering humanity"
TanIac is sold in Pensacola by the
Crystal Pharmacy.-Adv.

MODERN HEALTH
CRUSADE POPULAR

One Of the activities of the county
tuberculosis society, which is being
carried on under the direction of Miss
Lulu Willett, is the modern health
crusade. Supplies have been furnished
schools alone. and this is evidence
enough that the children take to the
idea of doing things to keep we'll and
strong. provided it is presented to
them in an interesting manner. Pupils
of the city schools are equally active
i'm the campaign against disease.
There are various stunts that each
crusader agrees to perform, and if he
is reasonably diligent in their per-
Torrance he is awarded with a de
gree and permitted to wear an emblem
indicating his rank. These stunts in
clude such simple and necessary, but
too often neglected things, as the care
of the skin and teeth, deep breathing,
erect posture. sufficient sleep, cleanli-
ness. and, in fact, attention to all the
functions of the body necessary TO
health.
1t is generally admitted that the
best time to fight tuberculosis is be-
fore you get il, and everyone knows
that this, like any other disease, IS
less apt to attack a clean, healthy
person than an emaciated, nemic one
with bad teeth, poor digestion and
stopped shoulders. So the Escambia
county tuberculosis society is anxious
to see this crusade work go forward,
and at the same time pleased at the
interest manifested in it.
