CLOGGED BLOOD
WITHERs THE BODY
Workers Sick and Weak From
Exertion, Take Pepto-
Mangan

subhead here ..--..... 7S9 1913 122333
Men and women who toll, either
physically or mentally, use up energy.
When they overwork they use up
more energy, and sometimes the
blood gets in rundown condition.
Without rest the blood cannot get
back to normal, so that it becomes
clogged with waste matter from over
eXertion.
The clogged blood virtually withers
the body. The strained looks on pale
faces, the thin, bloodless arms, the
sunken cheeks and necks, the dead,
tired feeling, are the results of stale
blood depriving the system of life
giving oxygen.
Workers go to the drug store and
get Guides Fcpto- Mangan when they
feel weak and run down. They take
it in either the liquid or the tablet
form. That makes the blood rich
and red and drives out the poisons.
Llve-giving oxygen. carried by the lit
tie red cells, renews the strength and
builds up the entire system. Look

GOOD OLD SANTA
INSTANTANEOUS
Tells Children Where And When
To Find Him-Wants Let
tiers From All

Look out, children, Santa Claus is
in Americas. He was seen on the
streets Saturday by few people, all
dressed up in his beautiful fur-trim-
med costume, with his big furry red
cap with the darling little silken
tassel hanging from the side. He
brought his jolly smile with him, and
his lovely set of flowing whiskers.
He came to Americas and went
immediately to his headquarters in
the second story of Hightower's
Store, where Toyland is, and where
Toyland is, there Santa Claus must
be. He left message in Toyland
for the children, and this is his mes
sage to you:
Dear Children: l am in Ameri-
Gus to read my letters which you have
sent to me in care of Hightower's
Toyland. 1t took a long time this
morning to read them all, and you
don't know what joy they gave me.
For in the letters each one of you
told me just what you want Christ
mas Eve night, and you see how easy
that makes my job. When I know
exactly what you want, | don't have
to stop and wonder what to bring.
"1 will make two more trips to
Opa m, CoftIrJa,y nonny,o
Der 18th, when | will again collect my
letters and read them through, and
make my list for those children who
will write me between now and
then. | want letter from every boy
and girl in Americas and in Sumter
county, and ] want letters from the
boys and girls who live outside of
Sumter county. My reindeer sleigh
can pull big load of Christmas toys
! will come for the last time on
Christmas Eve. That will be my last
trip this year. Be sure every one of
you to write me a letter and address
it this way, for ] am very particular
about my mail. Some of it does not
reach me because of wrong ad-
dress. Here it is. Everybody re-
member to write me just like this:
SANTA CLAUS,
care Hightower's Book and Toy
Store,
Americas, Ga.
sand / want to get lots of letters
when l come again on the 18th. /
want to hear from every little boy
and girl, even if l cannot see all of
you. Remember, children. Just two
more visits. / belong to the child
rem. They are my little boys and
girls"
So, Santa Claus was here. You
may see him if you watch for him.
Anyway he, will be back again next
Saturday, and he wants loads and
loads of letters at Hightower's Toy
land. The more letters he has the
happier he is, the more he smiles, and
the fatter he gets. Look out for
him, children, and don't forget to
write the letter today.

CAMP AICN IS ON
Workers Busy Down Town, But
More Volunteers Are Needed
Immediately

Mrs. James w. Harris, Jr, and
Miss Emmae Borum, with a group
I of young lady assistants, are busy to-
day on the thoroughfares of Ameri-
Gus disposing of Christmas Seals un-
der the auspices of the Child Welfare
movement of the Woman's club, of
which Mrs. B. c. Keister is chairman.
Mrs. Keister is asking for more
volunteers to sell Christmas Seals in
the downtown section, in the stores,
lawyers offices, and other places. 1t
is necessary that these volunteers be
placed in charge of the sales immed-
lately, since the intervening days
between now and Christmas are pass
ing rapidly, and the seals must be
disposed of.
Already seals have been placed in
the Americas Drug Co. store, the
Nathan Murray Pharmacy and the
Windsor Pharmacy, and it is expect
ed that permission will be granted
from the postoffice department at
Washington for the placing of sales
booth in the government building
here.
The school children are actively
engaged in selling the seals, and it is
hoped to cover the entire community
this week, with the result that the
sales will be large.
The slogan of the sale is Christ
mas Seal Your Christmas Mail" and
Americas people must rally to the
support of the sale of seals if the
splendid movement is to help others
is carried on.

No Changes in Chinese
 Territory, Says Student

New York, Dec. 7-"China com prises the eighteen provinces, Mon golia, Manchuria, Chinese Turkestan and Thibet, and any endeavor on the part of the other powers to define China on any other basis is an insult to the Chinese people," declares Teh Kuei Ho. president of the Harvard Students Club, representing 2.oO0 Chinese students in the colleges and universities of the United States, in an interview recently.
 China as a nation is composed of the eighteen provinces Manchuria; Thibet. It has been an established fact for three centuries that these five regions are integral parts of China. Under the Manchu regime, which ended in 1911 and to which the Re public of China is the successor, the high officials in the eighteen prov inces. Manchuria, Mongolia, Chinese Turlzestan and Thibet were appoint ernment at Picking. In this central government there were special boards which supervised the administrative, judicial, revenue and military depart ment of local governments in these regions. Moreover, the people of these regions paid taxes to the cen tral government at Picking.
 'sThen, can there be any doubt that these five parts did belong to China |?
 "The same thing is true under the republic.
 ."The revolution of 1911 brought about g. change in China from the monarchy to @ republic. It is merely a chang in the form of government and not a change in territory. The Chinese constitution provides that the eighteen provinces. Manchuria, Mon golia Chinese Turkestan and Thibet are integral parts of China. It is on the basis of these five parts that the geographical representation in the Chinese Parliament is regulated. That Chtna comprises these five parts is further evidenced by the col prs of the Chinese national flag. This | flag has five stripes of different col ors Red symbolizes the eighteen 1 provinces, or China proper; yellow | symbolfzes Manchuria, blue symbol Chinese Turkeatan and black eymbo-

AN OLD RECIPE
 TO DARKEN HAIR
Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns ~ Gray, Faded Hair Dark
 and Glossy.

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly com pounded, brings back the natural col- or and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home. which is nussy anc trou- b1esome.
 Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for "Wyetts Sage and Sul- phur Compound" You will get a large bottle of this old-tine recipe Improved by the addition of other in gradients, at very little cost. Every body uses this preparation now, be- cause no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as 1t does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at time. by morn ing the gray hair disappears. and after another application or two.you hair becomes beautifully dark. thick and glossy and you look years yos1n::- er.-Ady.
