like well-hained army, intelligently efficient
doing twice the work of the old dollars
Under the Community Fund plan Seattle's bill
for welfare and charity is cut in half-with great
er benefit to the recipients greatly reduced tax in
time and effort on the part of the workers, far less
trespass upon the time of busy public. and
greatly strengthened morale among the trained
men and women who labor among the needy,
afflicted and distressed
Seattle, too, looks upon the Community Fund
with modern eyes, for the fund embraces far more
than charity-its main purpose is constructive

Why wait for the need of charitya Well d.
rccted welfare eliminates the need of charity.
Welfare treats symptoms before disease develops.
Your dollars not only make possible the charity
of the Master, but provide the welfare that is so
closely akin.
Thus will Seattle keep its unique distinction

citizenship.

Some Danger in Combination of Potash
Tablets and Potassium
Chiorate.

At a merry party in England, n of
the guests suddenly found himself
emitting a shower of sparks. The
place Of origin was his coat pocket.
Everybody laughed, and thought it
was a w~ell-contrived joke. But 1t was
not. That was proved by a burned
jacket, chair, carpet, and hand. In
vestigation showed that the guest had
In his pocket a packet of potash tab
let's. Also he had there a box of
safety matches.
Now a safety match is coated with
potassium chlorate, and it strikes when
1t is rubbed against phosphorus paint
ed on the box surface. But potash tab
lets are made of potassium chlorate,
and so they, too, are likely to strike on
a safety matchbox. This is what they
had done. Some of them had escaped
from their packet and were loose in
the jacket pocket, ready to make a
fireworks display if they rubbed against
the matchbox. If you carry a safety
matchbox, be careful what else you
carry in the same pocket. Mind it Is
not potash tablets for a sore throat,
or you may "go off, unawares in a prl-
vate fireworks display.

Delivery Mans Bright Scheme for Get

Seem to Work.

William Rugenstein, delivery man
for the Big -Four railroad, one time
owned a houn' dog that he wished to
get rid of. AS a certain means of ac-
complishing his object, he locked the
dog In a freight car bound for Spring
field, Ohio, heaved a sigh of relief and
went about his work, glad with the
thought that he finally had got rid of
that dog.
Two weeks later, Rugenstein was
opening a car. containing a consign-
ment Of goods from Springfield. He
heard something scratching on the
door.
AS he opened 1t, out bounded three
emaciated, raw-boned cur dogs. On
the door of the car was written In
chalk:
