The American Red Cross is calling
upon the women Of this country. par
ticularly the hundreds Of thousands
who served in its Chapter and Branch
workrooms during the days of the
World War. to mobilize again in a
nation wide sewing circle for the
greatest production campaign since
before the Armistice.
The purpose of the campaign, the
plans for which were announced this
week, is to provide 2,00O,000 garments
and 100000 layettes for a portion Of
the hundreds of thousands Of children
and babies in countries of Central
Europe who are clad only in meager
rags and even in newspapers. The
conditions, according to authentic in
formation from Red Cross workers
overseas and representatives of other
relief organizations. are truly appal-
ling.
New England's Share
The production of the garments and
layettes asked for will supplement
the two principal relief efforts in
progress in Europe today, the feeding
program of the European Relief
Council of which Herbert Hoover
is the Chairman, and the medical
welfare work conducted by the Anne
rican Red Cross and now rapidly be-
ing concentrated in it's Child Welfare
Units. The plans to clothe the chill
dren are held to be absolutely essen
tial if the benefits Of these two opera
tons are to be fully realized.
On the basis OF the Red Cross war
time quotas, the national total Of g.
100000 garments for girls and boys
up to IA years old and the 100000
layettes for babies would mean a
quota for the New England Division
for the calendar year 1921 Of 10000
garments and 81 900 layettes.
The announcement of this great
production effort, decided upon be-
cause of the desperate plight of the
little ones overseas, was made for
the New England Division of the Ma
tional organization by Arthur G..
Rotch, Division manager, in a letter
sent this week to each Of the ZIG
Chapters and Ills Branches of the
Red Cross in Maine, New Hampshire
Vermont, Massachusetts and Rhode
Island Mr.. Rotch outlined the most
important features of the carefully
considered plans in his letter, which
follows:
1.-TWO million garments for chill
dren-
1.-TWO hundred and fifty thousand
layettes-
ITO be made, for the most part,
from used wearing apparel, Of every
description, remnants and odds and
ends, bed clothing, portieres, cur
tains-anything that ingenuity can
convert into a garment
This is the national quota for the
greatest Red Cross production cam
paign since the days Of the World
, War, which has just been announced
to me by Mr.. w. Frank Persons, Vice
Chairman Of the Central Committee.
'"The garments and layettes are to
help clothe some of the millions Of
children and babies in Central Eu-
rope who are living practically naked.
Tho two million garments will barely
suhhce to cover a half a million chill
dren; an infinitely larger number can
be used before the children are even
decently clothed.
Must Meet The Emergency
"The situation Of the children over
seas is literally appalling. according
to authentic information gathered by
the Red Cross and other relief Or
rnuizations and we consider this one

They have never known anything
but lack; always cold and always
hungry. The mute story of their
suffering is read in their faces. The
fact that these three children are
but a tiny portion Of the hundreds
of thousands whose position is no
better and often worse has resulted
in plans by the American Red Cross
for mobilizing its workers to make
garments for the destitute child
hood Of Central Europe.

ASKS ARREST
IN JUDGMENT
Attorney for Peru Banker
Takes Steps for Appeal.

A motion for arrest IN judgment in
the case OF Charles NJ. Charters, formerly
cashier Of the Citizens. National Bank OF
Peru. was made by James w. Noel. at
torney for the defendant, when Charters
appeared for sentence before Judge Al
bert B. Anderson in Federal Court to-
day. Charters was found guilty by a
Jury Tuesday on charges OF embezzling
$1,000 belonging to Giles NJ. Tillette, q
customer of the bank. The motion In
arrest Of Judgment is a preliminary step
to an appeal TO the Circuit Court of
Appeals.
However, before sentence could be
passed by the court Mr.. Noel asked time
for a conference with his client and Fred
erick Van Nuys, United States district
attorney. This conference lasted almost
an hour, after which Judge Anderson told
NIL parties in the case to return Mt
o'clock During the noon hour Mr.. Char
tiers and Mr.. Noel were cIoseted for more
than half an hour at Mr. Noels office,
which gave rise to rumors that the APP
peal would be dropped.
During the discussion of the case,
Judge Anderson said that he had no
doubts as to the guilt of Charters, re-
gardless of any technical legal points
raised by Mr.. Noel

WHY WEAK NERVES
AND thin BLOOD
CAUSE SUCH GREAT PHYSICAL
WEAKNESS AND MAKE ONE AN
EASY PREY TO A MULTITUDE OF
DANGEROUS DISEASES.

Every human being is born with GER
tain quantity OF nerve force"-some
with more than others.
Your body normally makes or gener-
ates nerve force only about so fast, and
if through overwork, worry, constant
nervous strain or other excuses, you use
up your nerve force faster than your
body makes new nerve force, then your
nerve power becomes weakened, and as
a consequence your blood may become thin,
pale, and wstery. and you become feeble,
cross, and irritable. In such state you may
not only suffer terrible fortunes from multi
tude OF alarming symptoms, but in your
greatly weakened condition you are an easy
prey for the multitude of dangerous germs
with which you must come in almost daily
contact, and you may therefore easily con-
tract some dangerous or even fatal disease.
In cases of nerve force exhaustion in which
your nerve and brain cells are starving for
want of a sufficient supply of n~Ive force or
nervo-vital fluid It is worse than foolish to
waste your time taking mere stimulating medi-
cines or narcotic drugs. Your nerve and brain
cells must have nerve food or something to
supply more nerve force the same as starry
ing person must have bread to build flesh
and tissue. For centuries science has
searched for a nerve food. At last a remark
able product was brought to the attention of
the Paris Academy OF Medicine by a cee-
brated French physician which contained the
principal chemical constituent of active liv-
ing nerve force in a form which most nearly
resembles that in the brain and nerve cells of
man. This remarkable product is today con-
tanned in Nuxated Iron so that you may now
easily obtain what might almost be termed
artificial nerve force simply by taking two
tablets of Nuxated Iron three times a day
after meals Nuxated Iron also contains or
ganic iron like the iron in your blood and.
like the iron in spinach. lentils and apples.
Organic iron enriches the blood and plenty
of rich red blood means more nerve force
that Nuxated Iron not only directly sup
plies the important chemical constituent of
active living nerve force to the nerve and
brain cells but it also stimulates the blood to
manufacture a greatly increased supply of
new nerve force. In fact, the manufacturers
guarantee satisfactory results to every pur-
chaser or they will refund your money.
Nuxated Iron is for sale by all druggists.

IN CHINA PLAN
Method of Presentation, With
Likelihood of Acceptance,
Diplomatic Feat.
U. S. FAVORs PROPOSALS

WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.-With plau-

Charles Evans Hughes today was cred
tied with another diplomatic triumph OF
scarcely less importance-the growing
appreciation of significance of China's ten
proposals to the Far Eastern conference
and the likelihood of their acceptance.
Abrogation of the Anglo-Japarese al
lance was freely predicted in high Of.

the acceptance of these ten general

delegation in yesterdays ser-et session

edge and appreciation If the Unhcd
States and it is understood the 'prin-
ciples" themselves are in full accord with
the policy of this Government toward
China.
The attitude Of the United States
toward the Anglo Chinese alliance has
been we'll known for some months. The
statement is made on good authority
that the desire for understanding on
this point was one Of the important
underlying causes for the calling Of the
conference and administra ton officials
and naval experts are agreed that the
success of the Hughes plan for the lin =
tation of naval armament is contingent
upon the abrogaton of that treaty.
There has been much speculation, how

QUIT MEAT when
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Take a glass Of Salts if your
Back hurts or Bladder
troubles you.

No man or woman who eats meat regu-
larly can make mistake by flushing the
Kidneys occasionally, says a well-known
authority. Meat forms uric acid which
excites the kidneys, they become over
worked from the strain, get sluggish and
fail to filter the waste and poisons from
the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all
rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble,
nervousness. dizziness, sleeplessness ana
urinary disorders come from sluggish
kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache in the
kidney or your back hurts or if the
urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sedi-
ment irregular of passage or attended by
a sensation of scalding, stop eating meat
and get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any pharmacy; take
tablespoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast and in q few days your kidneys
will act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush and stimulate
the kidneys, also to neutralize the acids
in urine so it no longer causes irritation,
thus ending bladder weakness
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
injure: makes a delightful effervescent
litha-water drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active and the blood
pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney
observation-disclosures.
